The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 76 – Not Gertrude's Idea
(Brielle’s POV)“An experiment.”It was Kione who answered. She murmured her answer and straightened up, lowering her gaze. The look on her face told me she was not proud of it.“What?” Bryce gasped; horror flowed in his eyes.“Newborn vampires will always be hungry for blood and confused for a long time. Sometimes, they forget who they are,” Kione added.Blood escaped Bryce’s face, then a surge of it went to his head, making his skin red in rage. When he understood what Kione meant, he looked at Xian and glowered at her.“You made us your bait?” He growled, gripping the edge of the bar table.If the table wasn’t attached to the wall, he might have thrown it to the person sitting across from him. Kione smiled and continued to eat, ignoring Bryce.I pressed my lips together, glancing at Cole, but like Xian, he was quiet. Aarush walked toward his sister, blocking his body before Bryce could jump and strangle his sister.“Oh, please, Bryce. We were watching you. Just in case, we want you
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 77 – Giving A Chance
(Brielle’s POV)“You’re making that up,” I gasped, stepping back from Bryce.My mother would interfere in my decisions; I knew that, but not as dangerous as this one. She tried to stop me, thinking I was insane for falling in love with Cole, but she would never put her line of work and status in the Order to save me.Bryce shook his head. “She did what she had to do. We knew Gertrude would need help, and she was right. Your grandmother came to me. It’s nuts, Brielle, but I had to agree with your Mom for you and my sister. If Gertrude’s here, she will tell you I’m not lying.”He lifted his hand, reaching for my hand, but he drew it back when I shook my head vehemently.“You’re lying, Bryce,” I scoffed, taking a deep breath as I glanced over my shoulder to see where to run, to hide from him.“Believe what you want to believe, Brielle. We’re both hunters, and you know it’s not easy to walk into that old building just like that.”I sniffled, my heart crying because I knew what he said was
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 78 – Not Marrying Bryce
(Brielle's POV)“Travis,” he answered. “T-R-A -”I raised my hand, stopping him.“I heard you. My hearing’s perfectly okay,” I muttered, widening my eyes, stunned at the line of blood dripping from his nose.He smirked and wagged his eyebrows. “I’m more handsome than Cole, right?”“You’re human?” I said shockingly, raising my hand and pointing my index finger at my nose.“What? What?” He asked in a panic and lifted his hand, gasping at the sight of blood. “Damn!” he muttered, craning his neck and pinching his nose.He turned around and stepped forward, walking away from me.“Wait!” I almost sprinted following him.For a human being, his pace was relatively fast. When he turned left, my forehead creased as Travis disappeared from the long hallway.I sat on the floor and leaned on the wall, not minding the cold and pouting as I pinned my eyes on the engagement ring. As I brushed Travis off my mind, I was filled with what Bryce had said about my mother. I groaned, closing my eyes in defe
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 79 – Unanswered Question
(Brielle's POV)“Pregnant?” Aarush guessed.His guess alarmed and caught everyone off guard, and even I was taken aback. I had not thought of it. Besides, it was still too early to tell. I opened my mouth to deny it, but the thought of Cole hearing everything made me decide to shut it. But then, my silence sent anxiety into the room.“Are you pregnant?” Xian asked, her eyes wide as she looked at me, slowly fixing her gaze on my abdomen as if she had a built-in scanner in her eyes.“Will that solve everything if I am?” I tried hard not to laugh, imagining Cole stopping somewhere and waiting for my answer. There was an eerie silence in the well-lit hallway, and as I waited for Cole to show up, I could feel the weight of Xian’s stare on me. She was obviously shocked. Even Kione, a newborn vampire, was taken aback and looked at me as if unsure what to do with me.“No, you only complicate the situation,” Aarush broke the silence. His forehead creased, and then he shook his head. “I mean”
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 80 – A Threat, Not An Ally
(Brielle’s POV)The sky was illuminated with a soft orange hue when the sleek vessel broke the surface and glided smoothly toward the dock. No one talked as we quickly made our way to the deck except for Travis, who tried to crack a joke, but no one dared to laugh.As Lucilla led us on the creaky deck, the only source of light we had was from the small beams of flashlights, casting eerie shadows across our path. I stopped, wanting to look back to see if Cole had joined us, but Kione hissed when I halted. Sighing, I stepped forward and stopped only when we reached the gravel surface of the road. Travis mentioned earlier that we were alone on the island, but something felt off as we walked into the dense woods. The sound of the insects that had been chirping incessantly faded, causing an eerie silence as if to tell us we weren’t meant to be there. I flickered my eyes on the woods, adjusting my eyes in the dark. I didn’t want to be startled by outcasts pouncing on us.“Don’t worry, Br
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 81 – Suddenly A Pressing Concern
(Brielle’s POV)“How did you know?” My eyes were wide as I asked curiously.Gen pressed her lips tightly and guffawed when she could no longer hold it. “God, I can’t believe I got you,” she said, her face red from laughing. “Brielle, you graduated at the top of your class. You’re the best hunter in your batch, and yet, you’re… you’re -”“Stupid?” I continued for her. Her eyes filled with tears, and she gasped for breath until she was able to calm down. She took a deep breath and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes before turning to me.“Brielle, Levana’s family is like the Kirkwood’s protector,” she said with a look of amusement and disbelief. “Didn’t Travis tell you they’re twins, and their family has been serving the Kirkwood for a very long time? Their dad serves in their council, like your dad to the Order.”I sighed and pursed my lips, not answering her question. I knew the first one, but Travis didn’t need to tell me what they do for the Kirkwood. Levana came to rescu
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 82 – Return To Me
(Brielle’s POV)Lucilla stood before the grand, arched window wall from the living room. In her slim but long white summer dress, she could pass like a ghost as if waiting for the return of a loved one. After getting the result from the sample I gave, Xian gave me medicine that knocked me out, and when I woke up, it was past four in the afternoon. I thought Lucilla was alone, but when I climbed down the stairs and got to the living room, Gen was on the couch, brushing Kione’s hair with her fingers as her girlfriend rested on her lap. Xian and Travis were on the floor, sitting with crossed legs and heads almost sticking together while their eyes pinned on the screen of a laptop, murmuring what seemed to be a heated discussion, while Aarush and Ichiro were in the bar area, drinking beer. Not that I was worried about Bryce, but not seeing him inside made me anxious. I didn’t trust Travis, and he could have done something terrible to him. Bryce may be a skilled hunter, but Travis be
The Enemy's Kiss Chapter 83 – The Undeniable Message
(Brielle’s POV)Lying on the couch in the dimly lit living room, my eyes were drawn to the old grandfather clock standing in the corner. It was five minutes before one in the morning. I didn’t have to spend eternity with the Kirkwood not to know Aarush’s pattern. At this wee hour, he would go down, walk to the kitchen alone, and have his midnight snack before going to bed.Humming, Aarush’s steps creaked on the wooden floor as he walked toward the kitchen. I leaped to the ground, landing softly in front of him.“Uh-oh!” Aarush groaned and turned around, trying to escape.I lunged forward and grabbed the collar of his shirt, pulling him towards me. Determined to keep him under control, I maneuvered his arms behind his back quickly, pinning them in place with a firm grip. I could feel the tension in Aarush’s body as he wriggled, trying to escape, so with one hand holding onto his wrist, I used my other arm and applied pressure to his neck, making sure he could not move an inch.“Not so
