Chapter 29: Chapter 29

Drake

With dizziness, bleeding head, and foggy weather I slowly tried to get up. I don't know what to do but I have to save her. The way they captured her was not understandable. If she worked for them then why did they treat her that way? So many puzzling thoughts strangling me as I slowly stood up.

They were W.B.D agents. I know them. I saw a batch on each one of their shirts. I can't tell Andrew or Chris because I'm not letting my siblings in danger. I need to go alone there. I think she's in danger.

I turned my eyes into dark red as I fully transformed into my original form.

I have an ability to instantly go anywhere on earth with just a thought and here I am... The department of the cruel people.

I sighed as I clenched my hands into fists. I know it's a little hard to enter but I manage it by hypnotizing every single person who tried to attack me.

"Where are you?" I said as I went to the upper floor and hid behind a huge wall.

I shut my eyes to sense her; I know she's here somewhere but where? I'm just hearing some voices... It's coming from the lower floor. I slowly came closer to the place where I can see everything by hiding behind the walls.

She's here; tied in a big chain and that beast named Walker is here too with his some friends. Rose is not looking okay; she's injured very badly and a little unconscious.

"Rose! I'm asking you again to tell me where the hell are they?" Walker asked her I think he was asking about us.

She shook her head as Walker got angry.

"Don't lie to me, Rosetta! You know where the devils are. I know you know."

"I... I'm not telling you... Anything." Rose yelled at him in a shaky voice.

Something is killed inside me after hearing this. Maybe it's my hate for her.

"Fine! Don't tell me…. consider it my warning. Tell me where they are or I hunt you down with this high-speed current." Rose looked at him with such an unpredictable face. I don't know what she's gonna do now. I'm not understanding her.

Walker smirked, "So you're still not telling me anything huh? Fine." After this, he tortured her with high speeded electric current as she shouted.

"Tell me now," Walker asked again furiously.

"I'm... Not telling you anything... I rather die instead of betraying them."

"Hmm, it's my fault... It's my fault that I adopted you when you were three. You're not my daughter by blood. You are a traitor and I'm gonna keep torturing you until you tell me the truth."

"Have fun torturing me... But I'm not telling you anything." Rose said, her words are stronger than anything in this world.

It's all my fault, what I have done to her. She's risking her life to save us.

She's not even his daughter. Shame on you Drake, what I did to her was unforgivable. She's innocent. Warm hurtful tears filled my eyes as I quickly wiped it and created a huge explosion.

Security alarm started ringing as everybody rushed in panic. I saw a few people running toward me to kill me but I killed them by breaking their necks.

"Oh look who's here? A Devil!"

I turned around to look at him, it's Walker I clenched my hands into fists. He shot me with his gun but I managed to protect myself. I placed my hand on his neck from behind. He suddenly fell to the ground suffering dreadful pain. It's called an illusion of pain which I'm using to let him suffer.

"You heartless creature... Tried to kill my Rose! You think I'm letting you kill her? You think? I'm gonna kill you. You tortured an innocent girl.

You don't deserve to live." I said as I ripped his heart out with all my powers. Beating a bloody heart in my hand as I watched him dying, fresh blood was dripping from his face and... Dead.

Dark thick clouds filled every inch of this department as I ran towards her and quickly untied her. She looked at me but her condition is not good. I carried her quickly with my strong arm as we both are in my room again. I lay her down on my bed as I quickly started the healing process. She's unconscious, her lips are peachy and her face is slightly baby blue because of that strong electric current.

"Rose!" I cup her cheeks with my both hands as I slowly pull her closer to me so I can hug her tightly. "I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!" My words are shaky, throbbing pain wrapped around my heart. I hate myself... I treated her worst. She doesn't deserve any pain. She's innocent and I'm stupid, weirdo mad like hell. I place a warm soft kiss on her cheek and on her temple as I lay her down on the bed again.

"I swear to my life, I will never ever... Ever let you get hurt again. Never." it's a vow that I took with all my magic powers and it's an unbreakable vow.

I removed some stray hair from her face softly as she moved her face at me slowly. I looked at her lips as I kissed her softly. It tastes like a strawberry sweet, soft, and amazingly beautiful.

I hurt her so badly. She's a baby... A beautiful innocent baby with incredible hypnotic sapphire eyes and dark red hair. She's amazing. I sit back next to her as I'm watching her sleep.

I smiled; she's looking beautiful even when she was sleeping. I shut my eyes as I slowly moved my fingers in her hair to make her comfortable.

My head fell a bit as I shook. I was sleeping and I didn't know for how long. I straightened up my back as I looked at Rose.

My heart started beating fast when I saw her. She's slowly opening her eyes. Pale flushed skin and peachy lips. Thank God she's awake.

She inhaled deeply as I grabbed her hand and she looked at me. "Rose! Are... You okay? Please tell me. Are you okay?" I asked, panicking.

She nodded slowly but didn't say anything. She looked around... I think she's wondering where she is exactly.

She slowly sits up as I place a pillow behind her back. Words are not supporting me right now.

"Rose!" She looked at me.

"Rose! I'm sorry... I am so sorry." My words are like a whisper as tears fill my eyes. She's looking at it.

"Please, please forgive me. Please?" She quickly wiped my tears before they came down as she placed her hand on my cheek. "It's okay... Don't apologize."

My heart felt so heavy right now as I hugged her tightly and she slowly squeezed my back.

"I promise you, that it won't happen ever again. I promise you. Rose... I love you!"

She slowly let go of me as she looked at me. She sighed.

"Drake, I accept your apology but what's between us isn't love. It's... It's just an attraction."

I shook my head, "no... It is love. It is." She shut her eyes and then opened them again.

"You didn't even bother to listen to me. I tried to tell you the truth but... It's not love. I might be your attraction but love —"

"Rose, I swear that won't happen again. I was stupid and I realize my mistake. Please."

"Drake, who you are and who you were then are two very different people. I can't give you my heart to break it again. I can't."

She's right, absolutely right. She trusted me and I broke her. Damn on you, Drake Snow.

"Rose! I know I messed up a lot and I made a mistake when I happened to know about your identity but... Rose: Don't our pasts define our future."

She arched a brow, "I don't know. Give me some time."

I nodded as a little spark of bright hope makes me feel a little relaxed.

"Take your time but remember... Remember I love you." She smiled softly. After having this conversation she went to take shower and I went downstairs to meet my siblings and tell them everything.

While taking shower thousands of memories flashes in my mind. Drake behaved me very badly but now I saw so much pain in his eyes. I know he was not wrong his anger towards Walker is expected but me—

Rosetta

He said he loves me but I'm confused. I don't know if he's serious or if it's just an attraction. I don't know. He's making me confused too. I don't even know what I want exactly. I want to believe him but then... God! What should I do? My own emotions are puzzling.

After taking a shower I wore my dress which Drake brought from my dorm. It's a baby blue frock. After dressing up I grabbed my phone as I went downstairs.

It's a little dark here, I was looking around but then Chris suddenly hugged me so tightly. I was shocked for a second but then I returned a hug too.

"Oh my God, how stupid I am... Seriously. Rose! I am so sorry. I'm so sorry.

Please forgive me. I doubted my best friend... punish me, punch me whatever you want to do but please forgive me. Please."

"Chris, relax." She's breathing heavily, looking panicking. "Relax!" I said as she whispered sorry again. She's about to cry. I hugged her again as she started crying.

"It's okay! Relax." I squeeze at her back gently. "Relax."

She wiped her eyes as she let go of my hug to look at me. She picked the end of her ears with her both hands. It's like a kid when some elder punished them. I smiled.

"Stop apologizing. Forget it." I said, she softly smiled as she gave me a quick hug and then took my hands as we both entered the kitchen. Boys are already here, and the fresh smell of breakfast filled every corner of the kitchen.

"Good morning!" Andrew said with a smile.

"Good morning!" I said back with a smile.

"Rose, I know these two idiots irritated you a lot... I know but forgive them... Please?" Andrew requested me.

"Hey! You guys stop apologizing. What's done is done and I'm happy that you are aware of the reality... That's all I wanted." I said to make them relax but I'm still hurt.

All three smiled softly as Chris served breakfast. Seriously they are treating me like a VIP guest. I looked at Drake... He's like drowning in his own thoughts. I know he's still blaming him. "Rose! I made your favorite breakfast egg Benedict. Taste it."

I take a bite and it actually tastes really good. "It's delicious." Chris giggled, "glad you like it." After having a great breakfast, boys went out for some urgent work and it was just me and Chris at the mansion.

Sitting around in a big and beautiful mansion is like a place coming straight from the fantasy world. It's not old-fashioned; it's modern, luxurious, and amazing. Chris sat next to me with a soft smile as she squeezed my hand gently.

"Rose! Today... I swear to God, I never let anybody break our friendship.

I won't, it's a promise. You are my best friend and you always and forever." I smiled as I squeezed her hand. I know what Drake and Chris did to me was rude but now they are sorry and it's okay. Honestly, I don't want this friendship to ever break again either.

"Chris! You are my best friend too and I promise that I won't let anything bad happen between us. And... Stop blaming yourself... Okay." Chris chuckled as she nodded. I'm glad and very happy that everything is fine now. Drake requested me to give him a chance... He's... Something.

Something that can't be understandable but he's not bad. He helped me that day when I was literally about to kill myself even though he knew that I'm not trustworthy he still saved my life by risking his own life. He didn't care about himself, he just saved me.

I sighed as thousands of confusing emotions blew inside my mind. Walker is dead now, a relief to know.

Drake killed my biggest mortal enemy James too. He killed two of my biggest enemies. I should thank him. I'm waiting for Drake now. Whenever he comes home I thank him.

I was busy drowning in my thoughts as I realized that something broke in the kitchen.

Chris was in the kitchen minutes ago. I pushed myself up from the couch while hearing her fighting with the familiar voice.

My brain beeped when I realized that it was Ash. The devil, the pure b**ch. I ran towards the kitchen. My doubt was right, they both fought again like wild cats. I hope Drake and Andrew get home soon.

"Ash, stop it," I said as she started to glare at me.

"You—" Only word she said with so much predictable hate in her voice before she came closer to me to attack.

"Ash was about to attack me but Chris stopped her by coming between us.

"Don't even think for a second that I let you hurt my best friend." Ash paused for a while, breathing heavily. A sudden devilish smirk sparked on her lips.

"Have fun protecting her but I'm not gonna back down. I'm gonna kill her. She's the reason Drake left me." Chris burst out into a big laugh.

"Oh, really? Well, I think Drake left you because my brother doesn't deserve a girl like you Ash. He deserves a girl like Rosetta who is pure and beautiful inside and out."

My heart starts tickling a bit as for the first time in a long time I'm actually feeling happy. What Chris just said makes me really, really happy today.

Ash tried to attack Chris but all of a sudden she flew up in the air and then fell to the ground. Her back hits the wall badly. Chris and I turned around to see Andrew and Drake standing behind us.

Before Andrew could attack her a second time she disappeared like a wind.

I took a step back without thinking as I felt warm strong hands holding my arms. I turned my face to look it was Drake. Standing very close to me even though I can feel his heartbeat. It's like a sweet lullaby.

"You okay?" He asked softly as I nodded. I glance at Chris. She's with Andrew. They are talking.

We went to the living room after this fight. I saw Drake... His mood is not bad... He looked at me... Oh God, is he reading my mind again? God knows his confusing intentions towards me. But I like it. The way it is it's not bad at all.

Boys bought ice creams for everyone. Chris gave the pineapple ice-cream to me with a smile. I take it. Thank God, she's okay now.

We sat down while eating our ice creams. I taste it as Drake smirks.

"Do you like it?" I nodded. "I know that flavor is your favorite." I looked at him.

"Drake?!"

He looked at me with his soft hazel eyes. There's a huge difference between his hazel eyes and red eyes. He... He looks innocent with his original eyes which is hazel. "Thank you!" I said. He smiled, "don't thank me; I know it's your favorite flavor."

I start laughing, "Stupid, I'm not thanking you because of ice-cream... I'm thanking you... For everything.

You killed one of my biggest mortal enemies James and... Walker." He's looking at me silently with a very soft smile on the corner of his damn hot baby pink lips.

"You saved my life... That day by risking your own life." I paused for a second then I asked him, "Why did you do that? Why did you risk your life?"

He sighed while sitting back. He took a moment but then finally he looked at me. "Losing you is like losing my heart." Silence settles for a moment as we both just stare at each other... Don't know what to say.

"Rose!" Drake said softly it's like a whisper that only I can hear.

"Yeah!?"

"Can you go out with me...? Now?"

"Where?" I asked as he leaned a little closer to me.

"To the beach." So he wants to go with me to the beach. Great.

"Okay." He flashes a smile. It's like he really wanted me to go with him. Anyway, after putting on my coat I told Chris that we are going and then we headed to the beach.

"To the beach." So he wants to go with me to the beach. Great.

"Okay." He flashes a smile. It's like he really wanted me to go with him. Anyway, after putting on my coat I told Chris that we are going and then we headed to the beach.

I shut my eyes as I feel the fresh fragrance of wet sand, cold wind, and so much freshness. It's not too foggy today but still, it's cold here.

Drake pointed to a place as we walked and sat there. I glance at Drake. He's quiet. I know he wants to say something but he's... He's silent. Finally, after a while, he looked at me.

"I'm sorry!" That's it... That's all he said. Sorry. He apologized to me but why is he apologizing again?

"Dra—" he shook his head while looking down.

"Don't… Don't say that you forgive me. Because I know I hurt you so much. I don't deserve any forgiveness... I know." His face turns little red, guilt, pain, hurt, and frustrations echoing and hammering inside his heart.

He's in pain... I said I forgive him but he's not forgiving himself. I placed my hand on his shoulder. I need to relax him... I have to.

He looks at me and hugs me so tightly. His strong arms are wrapped around me as I hugged him back. He needs it. He needs that hug.

He holds me a little tighter and I can feel every bit of his apology in his embrace.

"I did you wrong when I found out and now I swear I'm going to do anything and everything to make it up to you. I won't let you hurt ever again. I promise."

"Just stop blaming yourself, please. I know you are sorry and I accept your apology and I'm requesting you to stop blaming yourself. Please."

He nodded but remained silent.

"You asked me why I risked my life to save yours... It's because... I love you, Rosetta Lodge. I love you." Something tickles in my brain as I smile widely. He confesses that he loves me but—

I pull away from this hug slowly to look at him.

"Drake! I might be your attraction but love—"

"Rose!" Drake cupped my cheeks with his both hands. He called my name like an angel prayer.

"I admit... You are my attraction but you are my love too. It's true. I know you love me too. I know."

I raised my brows, "well, I don't know about it but Drake I forgive you but the truth is... I can't give you my heart again. I just can't. Your apology can't change the fact that you treated me badly. I can't trust you... Not after everything."

He sighed as he nodded with a fainted smile. "I know but can you give me a chance? At least one last time, please?"

"What about Ash?" I asked. "You think she's ever gonna let this happen?"

"I promise I won't let her come between us. I promise."

I sighed, "I don't know?"

"It's hard for you I know–"

I inhaled deeply, trapped around my own not understandable emotions.

"Trusting you is not as easy as you think; my trust was broken that night. I don't have enough power to let my heart break one more time." Drake inched closer to me as he squeezed my cheek softly.

"Trust me! I won't let you get hurt again. I won't." I'm looking into his eyes, his eyes are daring, purely swear without any warning he leaned closer to me as he captured my lips with his.

I leaned closer for more as he grabbed me from my back and pulled me closer to him. A warm, soft, addictive kiss wraps every inch of me. It's a kiss that neither of us wants to break. His kiss is sweeter than any dessert… I can feel the taste of mango on his lips. He ate mango ice cream before coming here.

God knows I'm losing my focus, the sound of a waving ocean, birds chirping ...everything. It's only Drake and me.

He kissed me so deeply that my stomach starts fluttering abnormally with thousands of butterflies. We pushed each other away slowly to see the complete blushing look on each other's faces.

He kissed me... He—

Every time, every time he kissed me I crave for more. His beautiful soft face with blushy cheeks, innocent hazel eyes... Everything is so damn perfect. He smiled like angelic heaven. I smiled back. My cheeks are burning and I know I'm blushing.

"I—" I clear my throat. "I think we should go now. It's cold here." He's smirking devilishly as he nodded. He grabs my hand while walking. I looked at him. He didn't look back but his smile was saying thousands of words.

I went straight to my dorm. The rest of the day flies in a blur. Same cooking, working on my new assignments, and my favorite part... Sleeping. I love to sleep.

Tomorrow is another day of school. I'm so excited to see him. He's a weirdo and nobody can't change that fact. Sleep Rose! Sleep! You are so talkative. I can sleep peacefully because my nightmares are dead already. Thanks to Drake. The weirdo.

*Beep beep* It's a big lie, five more minutes it's actually ten more minutes. Chris was with Andrew last night. I adore this couple. It's so sweet.

After yesterday's kiss, I don't know where that craving came from but I want to see Drake. I don't know... I just want to see him. I smiled. I'm crazy now.

After taking a quick shower and breakfast I got myself ready as fast as I could and went to school. I'm used to this foggy weather and coldness of course.

Anyway, I headed to my chemistry class. I looked around but didn't see Drake. He's nowhere. I settled down on a chair as I opened my book to start reading. Someone placed a book on my table all of a sudden.

"What the hell?" I said as I looked up. It's Ash... Again. I looked down... Trying my best to avoid her but she is she.

"Hmm, ignoring me huh? No problem, I'm not here to fight today. I'm here to tell you something." She leaned down to look at me with an unpredictable look. "Very important."

I sighed. "I'm not interested," I said as she starts laughing. "What if it's about Drake and me?" I paused for a second when she mentioned Drake. I narrowed my eyes.

"What about it?" I asked.

She sat on a chair next to me.

"Home-coming night... It was an epic and beautiful fantasy. You know why?" She asked and I'm looking at her confusingly.

"It's because we slept together." Throbbing pain burst my heart. My heartbeat is... It's like it skips beating. I swallow hard.

"No, no. He... He can't do anything... Not with you specially. You're lying!" I said. My mind is not accepting this. He can't do this.

"Trust me; he was with me that night. I invited him to my house to talk and then he realized that he was wrong. Loving you is his biggest regret. He told me all this." Looking at her. My brain is like it's freezing. Unable to think of anything. I'm just staring at her.

"He's just time passing with you. He loves me and that night he proved it when he's so close to me and—" She didn't finish the sentence as I grabbed my backpack and headed out. Tears filled my eyes, I'm not angry at him.

I'm angry at myself. I hate myself. He asked me to give him a chance and he misused me... Again. I'm not a playing doll. I shouldn't trust him. It's my fault. It's all my fault.

Now, I'm not trusting anyone. Never. I wiped my tears as I inhaled deeply. I really need this fresh and cold air.

Shouting, crying and ambulance sirens echoed every inch of this place. Chris ran towards me breathing heavily.

"Chris!" I said as she looked at me. "What happened? What's going on here?"

"Some monsters attacked the building behind our school. It's burning with thousands of innocent people."

"What?" I asked. Oh my God.

"Drake and Andrew are already there to rescue people and I'm going too. I'm just here to tell you that you go to our mansion now. This place is not safe for you." I paused myself.

"Chris, you really think that I'm just gonna run or hide just to save myself? No, I'm not going anywhere. I want to help you guys and you don't stop me." I said in a daring way and Chris smiled.

"Okay, come with me but promise me that you don't gonna risk your life. Promise?" I smiled, "I promise." I said as we both ran towards the building. It's burning badly.

I went inside. My skin starts burning already. I saw some kids, maybe three to five years old screaming and crying. I ran towards them as I slowly helped them to get out of there.

Fire Brigades are already here. I helped a lot of people with Chris and sent them to the safest place. Where's Drake? I asked myself. Andrew is here and again disappeared. I rushed upstairs to find Drake and finally I saw him. Helping people, rescuing them.

What Ash just told me about him was unforgettable but right now people's lives are more important than anything. I ran towards Drake as he looked at me shockingly.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Drake asked me as anger shoots my brain. "Dancing!"

"What?!" He asked like a dumb ass. I seriously want to punch him and tell him that's why I'm here but–

"You stupid! What's it look like I'm doing here? I'm here to help people."

"You're human!" He said like a complete douchebag.

"So? You think humans are weak?" I asked. "I didn't say anything like that... I just...why did you risk your life? We can handle it. You just go."

I looked at him. His eyes look so protective over me. But I'm not gonna listen to him.

"Why are you here? You said that you are a bad boy who likes to rip out others' hearts. So, why are you helping them?"

He took a moment to answer as he looked at me with his soft look.

"I'm a devil not heartless!" He makes me silent for a while as a bit of hurt ditches my whole being.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean that." He smiled but it faded.

"It's okay. Rose! You go outside so I can take care of them."

"I'm not leaving without you. I'm here to help." He looked at me, smirking as we helped the rest of the people, and finally, after a long time, we finally headed out.

"Thank God, everybody is safe." He said. "Thanks!" I said as I turned around to see him. He really saved everybody. He smiled, "It's okay." I'm angry, still angry but there's nothing to talk about. I gave him a chance and he broke it again. So, I'm not gonna trust him anymore. Andrew and Chris are already there.

Chris invited me to her mansion. She insisted on me so I can't say no to her. I'm angry at Drake not at my best friend.

Anyway, It took a while and we are here again at Snow's mansion sitting on a couch. Drake sat next to me with a soft smile.

"I really appreciate what you did today and thanks by the way. You really helped me a lot today." He leaned closer to me as I glanced at him, "Baby girl looks so angry today? Can I help you like kissing or—"

He leaned a little closer to kiss me as I pushed him with my finger on his chest. I smiled and turned my face to watch T.V again. "No, thanks."

He arched a brow, "Angry huh? Can you tell me why?" I glanced at him but then I stopped when I saw... his grandfather standing behind him with dark red eyes.

"Drake!" I said as he turned around to look and the next thing that I know is he stood, angry while clenching his fists as he turned his eyes turned into my red.

He motions his arm to move me behind him. Drake is so angry. Andrew and Chris are there, thank God. "What are you doing here?" Drake asked angrily. He smirked as he looked at me. Why is he looking at me?

"Did you actually think that you could run away from me? I know your loved ones. Your siblings and now another member… That girl with sapphire eyes. The way you protected her by pushing her behind you said everything…. that girl means too much to you. Correct me if I'm wrong?" He starts laughing, pure devilishly.

"I gave you time and you wasted it."

"And I said I'm still looking," Drake said.

He inched closer to Drake as I tighten the grip of Drake's arm with my both hands.

"Let me tell you one thing today Drake. Love…. it's useless...a complete waste of time. You are a devil and you have some responsibilities like finding my stone. You are a devil! A pure devil! Stop wasting your time on a girl, especially one who is a human. You know loving a human girl is forbidden in our world. You know that... right?" I looked at Drake shockingly. Drake never told me that it's forbidden. Oh my God.

"Loving a human girl is not only forbidden in our world but a devil who fell in love with a human might get killed someday.

Chris became a hybrid so Andrew is not in danger anymore but you—" grandpa said. He smirked as thousands of emotions started to swirl inside my heart.

Drake took a step towards him, "I don't care. You don't know what love is and you never know. Love is when you don't care who you are or where you come from. I'm gonna break every rule, burn everything to save Rosetta.

I will burn everything to save her even if necessary I will burn myself too. Do you still really think that you can stop me? Try!"

I'm looking at Drake, seeing how much he truly loves me. I didn't know about it. His love for me is beyond infinity.

"My work is to warn you, I don't care if you live or die. Give me my stone right now."

"I already told you I don't have your damn stone. So, get out of here right now." His grandfather took a step back as he attacked Drake suddenly. Drake fell to the floor.

"Drake!" Not only did I scream his name but Chris and Andrew did that too. "Give us time, please. Go away." Andrew said as Chris and I helped Drake to stand up.

Drake attacked him with all his force and they both started fighting. Throwing each other like a basketball. "That man is killing my brother," Chris said. She's right, the way they three are fighting are life risking. I should do something.

Drake is not gonna stop, he's very angry. I should do something to calm him down. I sighed as I ran towards Drake and hugged him tightly. My arms are wrapped around his neck. I believe... I believe in the power of a hug. I shut my eyes, his warm body… I can feel his heartbeat. It slows down. It's like a sweet soft lullaby. We both need that hug.

I hugged him to relax but now my heart is crying. I love him. I love Drake Snow. Slowly he moved his arm as he pulled me closer to him. His strong arms are wrapped around my back. I smiled as I gently moved my fingers inside his dark brown hair.

"Go away, we promise to find that stone as soon as possible but right now... just get out," Chris said loudly with so much anger in her voice. Finally, he disappeared. He's gone, everything is okay now.

Slowly we pulled each other away from the hug to see each other. His glowing red eyes are now soft hazel eyes.

"Thank you... For everything." Drake whispered like an angel thanking for blessings. It's a sweet beautiful whisper that only I can hear. I smiled as we both sat down to join our love birds, Andrew and Chris.

"We need to do something? Not with grandpa but with this town too."

"What do you mean Andrew?" I asked softly as Andrew looked at me with worrying eyes.

"Monsters attacked today to the building where thousands of innocent lives were there just to find us. We can't let them die."

"Andrew's right, they are searching us like a hungry beast. They are only attacking at those places where numbers of people are gathered."

I bite the inside of my lip after hearing Drake. "So, what are we gonna do now."

"I think we should go to the crowded area and kill them before they kill us and others," Andrew said as Drake nodded.

"They already attacked the building. I think their next target would be a bar?"

"You're right Chris, it's possible," Drake said as he sighed.

"In that case, we should go tonight to see what happened?" Andrew said as we all agree.

"Rose! You are staying here. You're not coming with us because it's dangerous."

I raised a brow, "I can handle the danger and I can protect myself too. So you don't have to worry about me." I said as Chris and Andrew started smiling.

"She's right, the way she controlled you today meant everything. She can handle danger." Chris said as she winked at me. I know she's teasing him.

"Oh, so you think that I'm a danger?" Drake said.

Andrew shrugs, "sort of!"

Drake smirked devilishly, "Don't make me hang you again up in the air... Upside down."

"Hey!" Andrew replied, a bit scared he looked.

Drake's mood is off because of his grandpa. It's not his fault that man is seriously so disturbing.

We did some random work like Chris and I worked in the kitchen and the boys were watching a basketball match. It's pure boyish.

Finally, after a long day, it's night now. I put on my leather jacket. I seriously love my dressing for tonight. It's a white top with a black leather jacket. Black tights and black high heel long boots.

I was applying my red lipstick as I looked at Drake in the mirror. He's standing behind me smirking devilishly.

"You look hot!" I blushed while looking down to grab my clutch. "Thanks."

"Are you ready?" Drake asked me as I nodded. I looked at myself in the mirror one last time before I headed out with Drake and love birds. It's very foggy and cold, especially at night. Andrew is driving, Chris is with him in the front seat and Mr. Hot weirdo is with me…. sitting next to me.

I glanced at him; he was looking down at his hand. Oh my God, it's injured a bit. I think that happened when he was fighting. He didn't tell anyone about it; he didn't even bother to heal himself.

I slowly moved my hand to touch his hand. He's looking at me and I'm looking at his hand, it looks so hurtful and bloody red.

"Why didn't you heal that wound?" I asked him, but he didn't say anything but look down.

"I don't want that pain to go away!" He said softly.

"Why?" I asked curiously.

"Pain makes me feel better!" Whoa! That's a totally unexpected and shocking answer. I can't believe it.. he hurt himself just to feel better. I don't blame him... What just happened to him after all these years it's obvious. I gently squeeze his hand, wish I can heal that pain but I'm a human. "Heal it!"

"What?" He asked.

I glance at him, "Heal it, right now and I'm not telling you... I'm ordering you. Heal it before I tell Andrew about it." I said with a little anger in my bit a shaky voice.

My anger is not a wave of actual anger it's for his own good. I know I'm angry at him after what Ash just told me but my care for him doesn't go away. It's never gonna happen.

He starts smiling, after that fight, it's the first time he smiles like an angel.

Sometimes I wonder if he's a real devil. He doesn't seem like a devil, the way he cares about others looks like he's an angel. His smile always lightens my mood don't know how or why.

He looked at me for a while, "I liked that attitude... Baby girl!" I smiled as he started to heal that wound. It's healing... and it's completely gone now. I sighed as a relief.

"Happy?" Drake asked and I nodded. Andrew stopped the car. I didn't realize that we are already here. After parking the car we went inside. Andrew opened the door as loud music and peppermint scent and cold wind filled my whole being. Drake grabs my hand as I look at him and then I tighten the grip a bit.

Everybody around us is dancing, drinking and….kissing. It's dark here with hundreds of multicolor lights. I love music, especially the song 16 shots.

DJ played that song and we are searching for some clue. We are divided into four different directions because it's impossible to find a monster together. Drake is not too far from me he's... around me somewhere.

It's really hard to find a monster between these drunken people and dancers. My gaze met the bartender as I smiled. That bartender is not only serving drinks but dancing at the same time like a monkey.

I again started searching but then suddenly someone grabbed my hand and pulled me closer to him. My eyes shut and my back hit the wall not too hard. I slowly opened my eyes…. It's Drake. He grabs my arms with his strong hot hands.

"Drake! You scared me." I said as he smirked. He inched closer to me as he pulled me closer to him, my temple almost touching his lips. I looked up slowly.

"Let's be reckless for a while?" He said as he winked devilishly. I bite the inside of my lip, my lips are drying right now and my heartbeat is so fast.

"What do you mean?" I asked as he came closer to me and again just like in school once I'm stuck between a wall and Drake. We are in the corner so nobody can't see us. He slowly moved his finger from my face to my lips.

"Drake, not here," I said but he starts laughing. He never gets serious...never.

"Don't worry, nobody is here...It's just you and me... alone!" Before I could say something his soft sweet warm lips captured mine as he leaned himself closer to me to make it deeper. I'm thinking about stopping him but that damn weirdo ruining a baby girl right now. Fine, if he wants to be reckless then let's be.

I leaned closer to him as he squeezed my cheeks softly. I wrapped my arms around his neck. It's a war… a love war that neither of us wanted to lose. He slowed down a bit while slowly sliding his face down to my neck as he kissed the gentle point of my neck and a weird electric feeling vibrated my whole body with a shiver. He captured my lips again as he nibbled my upper lip and his strong hands were slid to hold my waist. Finally, we stopped slowly as we both were breathing heavily and heavenly.

He kissed me one more time before looking at me. "I never thought an innocent baby girl could be that sexy!" I looked at him trying to hide my smile but couldn't.

"For your kind information, I'm not a baby girl, and yeah you said let's be reckless so—" He smirked. "Every time I kiss you, Rosetta Lodge! I crave more and more.

You have no idea how much your love and presence are driving me insane. All I want is you... every day... every second… I just want you and I crave for you." Is he lying... or he's serious?

I don't know. His wordings are like swearing to God but what is disturbing me... I think it's Ash! I opened my mouth to ask him about his night with Ash but Chris came.

"There you are. Sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you but there's something here too. Andrew and I saw it but then it disappeared instantly."

I looked at Drake and then we followed Chris. Andrew was waiting for us.

"What happened?" Drake asked Andrew.

"Well, we saw it. It's... It's like he's made of rock. When we start chasing it... It disappeared."

"We need to find it before he attacks," Drake said as Andrew and Chris went to the left side as for us Drake held my hand and we went to the right side. Damn, it's such a crowded place. It's really hard to find someone in this rush.

I saw that rocky monster again. Drake's hand slips away from mine because of people. I think I should go after monsters instead of finding Drake. I…. as always without any second thought started to chase him.

I'm lost... I'm just chasing that monster but then someone taps on my shoulder as I turn around to see it... It's a waiter with a tray of some random drinks.

"Drink?" He said with a mysterious weird crook face. I shook my head as I looked again where that monster was. Shit! I missed it. "Drink?"

I shut my eyes as anger hit me badly because that monster is gone and it was because that waiter distracted me. "I said no!" I said as I looked at him and my heartbeat stopped. Oh my God, his eyes are reddish orange. He's not human. I took a step back and started running. He's chasing me.

I need to find Drake. I looked around but I can't see anyone, not even love birds. I glance at this monster again and he's coming toward me.

"What should I do now?" I looked around to find something... Something that helps to kill him.

He ran towards me as I shut my eyes but the next thing I know he screamed. I opened my eyes slowly. It's Drake beating him and that monster is beating him with the same force.

"Go away Rose, let me handle it?" Drake said as he transformed himself into a devil. Drake threw that monster away as he fell where all the random bottles are. Some of them are already broken because it's made of glass.

"That's it!" Drake and that monster are fighting like a beast. I'm worried about Drake. I ran towards the place where glass bottles were shattered. I picked one it's half broken. I saw Andrew and Chris without a second, they started fighting too. I inhaled deeply as I tighten my hand's grip to hold that bottle tightly.

Andrew is already injured. Chris and Drake trying their best to kill him. I started running as fast as I can as I daggered that half-broken glass bottle inside his back and he screamed. That bottle is completely inside his back, green blood started to stream down as he fell to the ground and... Dead.

Oh my God, I'm a killer now.

I looked at Snow's and they are looking at me like I'm a warrior or I dunno.

"Oh Holy hell! Rosetta, that was fantastic. That was... It's amazing." Chris said excitedly as I raised my brows.

"You saved us!" Andrew said while grabbing his arm and a happy smile. "I—" I swallow hard, "I killed a human." Drake burst out into a big laugh. "Baby girl, it was a monster, not a human."

Chris came closer to me as she hugged me warmly and tightly. "I know you are scared of him but trust me even though it was your first attempt but that attempt saved us. Thank you." She said as she smiled while slowly pulling away from the hug. I smiled back as I was relieved. I'm happy to save them. I saw Drake smiling softly.

"Alright let go now. Monster is gone now." Andrew said as Chris and I headed out and the boys are checking one last time to make sure that there is no monster here. After checking it boys and Chris went to the mansion and I went to my dorm.

Drake and Chris offered me to stay with them but I really wanted to be alone for some time, especially after a very long adventurous day.

After dress changing, I lay down on my bed. I'm really so sleepy. Thinking about Drake and everything, no matter what happens my heart only beats for him.
