It didn't take them long to arrive in front of a stately mansion – more magnificent than the Argent Family's new mansion in Mitchell Hills, Moonwood City.
Luca turned the knob on the front door of the house, then ushered Loui and Archie inside. Charles Argent was sitting leisurely on the only single sofa – much like a king's chair. Immediately the three approached Charles, then sat around Charles.Archie, who seemed confused from the start, finally spoke – unable to stand the silence that enveloped them."Sorry, Charles. I'll just ask about the red juice." Archie said to Charles frankly.Charles flashed a smile while giving a small nod before replying to Archie's confusion."It is indeed blood – pure blood." Charles replied curtly.Archie's pair of round eyes widened, shocked – too shocked to hear Charles's frank answer. What Lyla told him turned out to be the truth, at first he thought, Lyla's words were just bullshi"So, actually, Skarsgard turned out to be just scaring you, Archie?" Malia accidentally raised her intonation as Archie took a deep breath, after finishing her sentence.Archie recounted all the conversations he had with the rest of the Argent Family. Gabe, Ash, and Malia listened intently. Meanwhile Leona chose to write some of her favorite pencils on the plain book in front of her. The girl made some abstract carvings on the white paper. When she wanted to divert something she was thinking, Leona always chose to draw or paint. Everyone who sat at the same table with her seemed busy raving about this and that, Leona who was getting bored with her drawing activities chose to rest her hands for a moment. However, who would have thought, Ash who was on her right side, at that time caught the slender fingers of her left hand – grasped it, then rubbed it gently. In the next split second, the sharp-nosed man on her right took the time to turn his head,
"Listen, Ash. I can protect myself." said Leona."Tell me, where are you going? At least we know where to look for you, if suddenly you don't come home and don't even tell me." Ash made a condition spontaneously. After all, Ash really wanted to know where the girl was going alone. Because he had a bad feeling about it. "I'm going to see Damien. Damien Skarsgard." Leona answered swiftly. After flashing a crooked smile, Leona darted off before Ash could even offer a word of offer or perhaps deterrence. The girl really did not want to be accompanied, even followed by anyone, including Ash and his two brothers. Ash sighed resignedly to see his girl leave without wanting to be accompanied or prevented. They were indeed a couple, but it was only a status they had originally created just to avoid Damien Skarsgrad. And that didn't work at all to make Damien stop bothering them, including Leona.***On the other sideMalia, Gabe, and Archie wer
"It's great to be able to smell Loui's scent again. You... You can never feel it, can you, Malia Hale?" whispered Irina Provocative. The Skarsgard girl immediately straightened herself when she felt the arrival of the eldest Argent's figure. In the next split second, a baritone voice belonging to someone she knew very well interrupted with a high intonation as he mention of her name. "Oh? Hi, honey!" Irina turned her head to the right, looking at the owner of 180 centimeters tall, who at that time was cupping Hale Girl's shoulder with his thick and veined hands. Loui looked very alert to see the movements of Irina who was standing so close to the girl. Loui looked at the Skarsgard Girl with a cold, expressionless gaze. The look that was difficult to guess meant, even if it had the same ability as her —reading minds, the girl still couldn't decipher the look that Loui was giving her. "Don't provoke another mess in this place, Irina!" Loui said to t
"I know you love me too, Loui. At least —" Malia paused. She swiftly brushed the corner of her right eye which was almost wet with a clear liquid that was about to descend without permission. The next split second the girl who was bravely sitting on Loui's lap lifted her head again, staring straight into Loui's jet-black beads. "At least say it once." Malia whispered. Five seconds later, after successfully exhaling his exasperated breath, Loui reached out with both hands – covering Malia's chubby cheeks as she stared at him deeply. "I Lov—" Before Loui could finish his sentence, there was a long honking sound, at the same time the car they were ride in was pushed from behind – shaking violently. Malia, who was in his lap at that time, she was pushed forward – through the windshield. Loui was about to grab the girl, but for the first time in his life, his alertness was slow. Loui failed to save his girl. The petite body of the girl surnamed Hale was blown
"Ash?" called Leona one more time. "Hm? Yes, Leona?" Answer Ash.Leona took the time to look up, looked at the face of the Alpha who was hugging her, then said, "If I make a mistake that has a big impact on everyone, including you and my family, will you forgive that mistake?" Silence for a moment. Ash pondered —considering the contents of the sentence Leona said, and thinking about what kind of words would be appropriate for him to say in response to Leona's question. He didn't want to give an answer that could hurt Leona's heart, and on the other hand, he gave a realistic answer according to what was on his mind at that moment. Never getting an answer, Leona's gaze, which originally seemed so straight, turned sad—injured. She knows herself, big mistakes do not deserve a place of forgiveness. So, in the next few seconds, Leona spoke again what was on her mind. "Sorry, I was asking about the obvious what the answer would be." Leona said
When almost all the members of the Argent Family decide to interrogate his younger sister, Leona. Loui chose to ask the doctor, Erin, for help to meet – see firsthand Malia's condition at that time in the ICU. He had a bit of a hard time getting Erin's permission at first, even when he tried to control Erin's thoughts, he didn't succeed. Widow Cooper was completely unaffected by his abilities. Luckily, Erin's heart moved by itself until finally Erin gave her permission to enter the ICU, meet and check on the condition of his girl. Armed with the requirement of 30 minutes of visiting time, Loui didn't want to waste it. He agreed to wear full medical attire such as: a mask and so on, when he entered the special room. There were sounds from various medical devices that were attached – connected to several parts of Malia's body. Almost all parts of Malia's head were perfectly wrapped with white bandages, her right foot and left hands also got the same banda
Leona decides to take Loui to another city. A completely normal city, far from any supernatural beings, like them.The city looks more modern, although the classic touch from some corners of the city is still visible and felt. The sky had changed color, jet black with no moon or stars. The two Argent brothers chose to sit back and relax on the grass beside the lake, not far from the bustling center of the city."What do you want to talk about?" asked Loui matter-of-factly, to the point.Leona turned to her left for a moment, returned the questioning look from her brother, then looked back at the lake in front of her."You're keeping something from all of us, right, Loui?" guess Leona.The girl took a deep breath before finally speaking again. "I'm also keeping something from you and the others." Leona continued quietly.Hearing the shocking confession, Loui turned her head to her right shoulder – staring at her
That afternoon, to fill the empty hours before the next class, Ash and Archie filled their free hours by accompanying Gabe to practice alone on the University's indoor basketball court. But suddenly a group of young women approached the three of them – being friendly to them, even on various occasions they teased Ash. Unfortunately their action could not last long, because Leona arrived at the location a few minutes later. The Argent girl approached them, even openly gave Ash a warm kiss on the cheek as a greeting. This action managed to make the group of girls bow their heads in unison – say goodbye and run away at once. Gabe couldn't hide his laughter at this rare occurrence, while Archie, as usual, gave her a teasing look – mocking the spontaneous act of the only vampire girl who was there. "Wooo hooo! Looks like someone is afraid of having their favorite item taken." Archie quipped in Leona's face. Leona rolled her eyes as she snee
