(Alexander’s POV) My eyes opened at midnight instantly, I got up from the bed and got ready for the meeting. The whole mansion was silent, when I walked out of the room. I took the back entrance and walked towards a clearing that only I knew off and reached the destination within 5 minutes. “My, my, look how grown up you are” I heard her voice only and looked around to spot her but nothing was there except for trees. “If we had to talk, then you have to show yourself” After a second, I stopped moving with hands crossed against my chest and waited for her. Within a few seconds, she was in front of me in her glorious black gown with red pearls in it and a big smile on her face. “Hello…Aunt” I had a smile on her face while

(Evelyn's POV) It's been three days since my parents died and I have been cooped up in my house since I returned from their funeral. I have been lying in my parents room since then and only got up for the washroom and nothing else. In these three days, someone might think that I am a living-dead person because of my appearance. My phone was also continuously ringing since that day and only two people kept on checking me by sending messages or calls. Yesterday, Mia even came to look for me but without opening the door I asked her to leave. Everything in my life has come to a halt, I don’t even know how to start my life again or even if I want to or not. My parents photo was still in my arms when again someone rang the doorbell. For a few seconds I ignored it but the person continuously rang and eventually, I got up. “Mia, I said I don’t want to see anyone…pls leave” I said through the door thinking Mia was there but some other person replied. “Not even me?” I can remember that voi

(Alexander’s POV)We took a break from watching movies and it was around 3 in the afternoon. Evelyn went to the kitchen to get some snacks when my phone started ringing…“Chris?” I heard his panicked voice over the phone and the second he told me what happened, the ground slipped beneath my feet.“Alex?...Alex!” Evelyn's voice took me out of my trance and I looked at her. She was looking at me with worried eyes.“What’s the issue?” She kneeled down in front of me while just sitting still thinking about what Chris told me a minute before.“Alex…Look at me, now tell what happened? Who was on the phone? Is everything alright?” She asked me questions of whi

(Evelyn's POV) Since the time I have come to Alex’s cabin, I could feel something eerie. As if someone is watching me but I didn’t ponder upon it more and enjoyed the time with Alex’s sister’s. The second Alex came, there was tension on his face and I could clearly sense something was eating him alive.The second I entered his room and saw his tired face, I hugged him and wanted to show support the way he showed me when I was on my lowest point in life. I don’t know what came into my mind but that minute, I poured my feelings to him even though I was aware that he would not say it back. The time I asked him to take me with him, he was hiding something from me, I can feel it.“The dinner is ready, let’s go” I said after a few seconds and led him downstairs. During

(Evelyn’s POV)I knew that Alex was hiding something from me since the time I saw him worried and that slash on his abdomen. There is definitely something going on in this place and I have to find out. With that goal in my mind I left Alex’s place and fighting with him was just a part of my plan to stay away from him…“Mia, you know what to do, right?” I immediately called her after reaching the hotel.“Yes, I have informed her she will take good care of you” And ended the call before packing my bag and leaving for my destination.After an hour, I reached a house and rang the doorbell. The door was opened by an old lady…“Hello, Mrs. Clove?” I asked and she nodded.“I am Evelyn, Mia must have told you about me”.“Oh yes! Come in dear…Mia said that you wanted to stay for a few days” She invited me in and I looked at her beautiful home.“Thank you so much for letting me stay” She just smiled at me before going into the kitchen. After drinking the water she got, we walked towards the roo
