RED STRING CHAPTER 19.1
HER MATETHE WORDS FROM Landon seemed like a bomb being thrown at us. I looked at Ayla and she appears as astounded as I am. "Ayla? I think we should leave."No words escaped her mouth for a second until she finally opens her mouth to speak. "I think I have just forgotten how to breathe, Sissy.""Let's go back, Ayla. Clarrise and Landon have left the place."We let silence engulf us on our way back. When we entered the kitchen, Ayla and I exchanged knowing looks upon noticing Clarrise's absence. Where could she be?"What took you both so long?" asked Nana. Ayla looks at me like she was expecting an intrusion from me but my mind failed to think of an excuse. An apologetic smile was all I gave her. Left with no choice, Ayla was forced to answer her. "Well, uh... Bella and I were talking about random things and we lost track of time, Nana." Nana Selma arched her brow but eventually went on with her chores. "Is Clarrise coming today, Nana?" I subtly asked. She stopped mincing and

NEREZA GREETED US with a wide smile on her lips. I waved at them to greet them as well. Looking at the two, I supposed they are now okay. It appears that Nereza has moved on from her resentment toward her. "Bella, Ayla said she might be late tonight," informed Clarrise. I nodded my head. "Yes, I figured. She's doing her mother's work because Mama Melly is busy helping for the festival."I actually offered Ayla my assistance but she refused. She feels it's better if I helped her mother instead. "I'll go greet Mrs. Penn," Nereza interfered after her long silence. I gave Clarrise a questioning look. "You reconciled?"She sighed deeply but I can see the glint of contentment in her eyes. "Not really, but I can feel that she's slowly trusting me again and it's all thanks to Markus. I know he's one of the reasons why Nereza's anger towards me is slowly fading."I smiled after she said those. "That's good to hear then. I know Nereza still deeply cares for you."We hang out with the kids f

WE MEET AGAINSPEAKING WAS SUDDENLY impossible for me for brief seconds. Her revelation clearly took me off guard. Another second passed and I finally gathered the words to say but the perplexity of my voice still lingers. "B-But Landon said he is a vampire. How did he end up saying that?" Her fingers gently stroked her temple. The guilt on her face is slowly showing. "I was to blame. I made him believe that because I was left with no choice. He also believes that our difference pushes him to reject me. The anger and hate on his face were vivid at that time and it made my mind clouded with different dreadful possibilities. I fear that he may end up hurting my mate if I confess the truth. I don't want them to berate him." "But you have plans, to tell the truth, right? And you said he's not just a werewolf, he's an Alpha, so by any chance, is he one of the leaders of the five wolf-packs?" I asked.The way she averted her gaze indicates her hesitancy to answer my question. I squeezed
RED STRING CHAPTER 20.2
I LET THE question slip from my mouth without even considering how he will react. My curiosity is pushing me to the edge. And as expected from him, he was taken aback. His jaw then clenched and averted his gaze once more. Now I regret spilling the question."I'm sorry for asking. As I said, you don't have to answer if you don't want to."I let go of his hand. But I can't deny the disappointment I felt."No, don't feel sorry, Ysobella. There is nothing to apologize for. I brought my eyes to him but I can still see the hesitation lurking behind his orbs."There are things that I wanted to tell you but right now I need you to give me time. We don't know if this vampire is dangerous or not but I promise you, once I'll find proof that we can trust him I will bring him to you."Now it's my turn to be surprised. Well, what he just said was beyond surprising. Why would he bring him to me? Lucien saw how confused I was so he continued to talk. "Sweetheart, we've learned that this vampire is
RED STRING CHAPTER 21.1
LOVEI WAS SO lost with the pleasure he was giving me and I didn't even notice he's brought me into his room. My back pressed against the cold wall of his room. He captured my slightly parted mouth with his. His lips then proceeded on kissing my earlobe, down to my neck. I think it has now become his favorite thing to do. My hands found his hard shoulders. I then gripped them so tight when he pressed his body against mine. The burning sensation we give each other is too strong and intense. My mind can't even think of any sensible thoughts and all I care about is what we have right now. He bit the tip of my ear before cupping my face. The moment our eyes met, I saw desire dancing in his blue orbs."Lucien..."The moment his name rolled from my tongue, his eyes were filled with an unfathomable emotion. Then his lips once capture mine. "I promised I'll try to hold back tonight, but f*ck! You're so tempting and I can't take it anymore!" I whimpered under his touch which earned a pain
RED STRING CHAPTER 21.2
THE NEXT DAY I woke up with something heavy wrapped around me, it was Lucien's arm. When I turned around to face him, a small smile formed on my lips. I smiled and watched him with awe. I traced his slightly parted lips with my fingers and down to his well-sculpted jaw. I stifled a laugh when my fingers touched his short stubbles. He looks perfect and divine. I lifted my hand to trace his thick pair of slightly creased brows. I tried touching his lips again but Lucien caught my hand. "Good morning, sweetheart," he greeted groggily. His eyes dance with amusement. He then brought my hand to his lips to kiss each of my fingers. I swallowed the lump in my throat because of his sweet gesture. "Good morning, I'm sorry for waking you."He wet his lips before speaking. "I don't mind being awakened by you, Ysobella. This is actually the scene I longed dream."He smiled and took my other hand. Once again, he showered my fingers with feathery kisses. I averted my gaze because his teasing me
RED STRING CHAPTER 22.1
GOOD NIGHTTHE CHILDREN SERENADE us with their angelic voices. We were all amazed at how pure and soulful their voice are.After the show, we approached the children and expressed our praises. But I noticed that some of the children are joyfully talking with a man a few steps away from us. It was Synth.Lucien didn't mention that Synth is fond of children. A strong pair of arms shortly took my attention away from Synth and the children."Sweetheart," Lucien mumbled before kissing me on my shoulder."You didn't tell me about Synth's fondness for kids."I only earned a mere hum from Lucien as if he wasn't interested."Aren't you going to talk to him?" I asked."What for? There's actually no reason for us to talk and besides, he's occupied."I secretly rolled my eyes from his choice of answer."He looks so natural with the kids. I can how genuine his reaction is every time he laughs with them."I can't help but smile gently as I went on watching the Alpha."Yes, he is," Lucien uttered fl
RED STRING CHAPTER 22.2
"HELLO, ATTICUS," I greeted upon reaching him. He was surprised to see me but eventually returned my greetings. "You're alone?" he asked while looking around."Yes, I'm not occupied with tasks today. How about you? Are you with your family?"He shook his head. "Just me. But since you're now here, do you mind keeping me company? I'll treat you with sweets."I couldn't say no to his pleading eyes. I know Lucien told me to be careful but with Atticus, everything seems fine... and I have this feeling like I owe him something.*****ATTICUS TOOK ME to a carousel. He said he wants to experience riding it. I teased him because he was too old for that ride but he only shrugged his shoulder. He said your age won't matter and anyone can ride it. Riding the carousel with Atticus was fun. It somehow made me feel like I was reminiscing memories from my childhood. After the carousel ride, we had a little stroll then he bought me dinner.I was supposed to decline but he said it might be our last m
