CHAPTER 54: The Scary Circumstance

  In one drop of water that hit my body right now, I found millions of magic on it, that was icy but the way it recharge my soul and making me inspired to start the day disappeared the frozen feeling that I felt all over my body.

  After stepping into the mansion with the two guards who were ready to kill anyone who tried to harm me, I went straight to the restroom so that I can clean myself as I wish.

  I closed my eyes, as usual, the moment I felt the water hit my body. I was in a white colored bathtub laying myself down and looking at the outside of the window, my arms wide-opened, resting against the bathtub side, I was in a phase of peaceful that moment.

  The bird happily sings; the opened window that I open earlier before getting into the bathtub makes the sounds of the bird even more audible. The fresh air filled all over the room, making the temperature even colder and because I’m allergic to the cold, I get off the bathtub quickly after that.

  My legs shook as they stepped out of the bathtub, the cold floor make everything worse so to erase the cold feelings I ran quickly to the bedroom which connected to the restroom and stepped on the wood floor.

  The coldness slowly disappears; I was naked at that time because I got no preparation when I went to this place. None of us are expecting to stay here that is why I didn’t bring any clothes with me.

  I let my body dry on its own, the breeze which came from the outside pretty much made my body tremble, I got no choice but to let myself dry on its own instead of wiping my body with the only clothes that I bring from Eden Spring.

  When every inch of my body was ready to be wrapped with the only clothes I had, I heard something from the outside and that made me not make it to wear my clothes.

  A sound of a gunshot again, but this time it was not only one gunshot sound, but it also was more than that and the sound does not come from the outside gate, it came from the residential area.

  “What is going on?” I wondered in dismay.

  After hearing the gunshot noises, the two guards who were escorting me immediately went upstairs to check on me.

  “Lady, are you there?” One of the guards inquired.

  Thankfully, the door was shut at the time they came, if it was not, sure they will be the first person who sees me naked. The Moon Goddess seemed to protect me from dishonor. If she was not with me right now, I swear in the name of her, I will not dare show my face again to this world.

  “Yeah, one second… I will be there soon” I responded, running closer to the bed a full speed afterward to grab my clothes.

  “You need to hurry, Lady! Something happening outside” The guard demanded.

  “All right, wait for a second!” I said from inside the bedroom.

  I wore my clothes in a rush and spent less than one minute wearing that, after making sure I was set up, I tied my hair in a ponytail and immediately got out of the bedroom. I do not even check on my face in the mirror before I step out of the bedroom, I just got off it as if somebody will kill me soon.

  “We need to move now!” The guards said.

  “What is happening outside? Why did you guys seem dismayed, I heard gunshots” I responded with a heavy breath, at that time the three of us were still standing next to the bedroom door on the second floor of the mansion.

  The guards told me they are not sure because they haven’t checked the location yet, they also had me with them which became their priority over everything. The two guards have to keep me safe first before doing another job.

  “I’m sure another guard will take care of that situation, now we have to take you to the safest location!” The black-haired guard said.

  A question then popped out of my brain and because of that, I then asked the guard about the safest location they were talking about, it turned out this place was used as a war shelter fifty years ago before being abandoned.

  The guard told me that there is a bunker underneath this mansion and my father had commanded them that if something bad happened during the relocation they had to rescue all the royals to this place.

  I agreed with them and the three of us then made our way to the first floor of the mansion to find the bunker.

  The bunker is located in the dining room of the mansion, at that time the three of us walked full speed to the spot and after reaching it, the guards then move the dining table which was placed right in the middle of the room.

  There was a door underneath the mat, but that door only fit one person considering it was only one meter and a half wide.

  “You can go first, Lady” Thee brown-haired guard demanded.

  “It is so dark there, I can’t” I responded in dismay; my eyes pointed at the bunker that was right under the ground.

  Every house in this place has no lights, there is no way this bunker has a light when the electricity in this place is not repaired yet. The guard told me that I have to get into the bunker so that they can rescue more royals to this place.

  I hesitated at that moment, but my mother taught me not to be selfish. So after gathering all my courage and pushing my fear away, I agreed to get into the dark bunker afterward.

  When I was about to step down into the bunker, my cousin Harrison La Luna came as if nothing happened, he barged in without knocking on the door.

  The mansion’s front door is not too far from the dining room, so when Harrison comes in, everyone who was at the dining table could see who the ones that stepped into the mansion are.

  The mansion is also surrounded by lots of windows, the windows are as clear as the sky and they made everything outside clearly visible.

  Both of the guards immediately ran toward him in the act of rescuing him, the guards’ action made my cousin confused so does the guards and me who at that time trying to relocate ourselves into the bunker.

  “What did you guys do?” Harrison raised his eyebrow the moment he noticed the guards were ready to walk him in.

  Without letting the guards answer my cousin’s question, I quickly ask him about the circumstance that was happening outside.

  “What happened outside?” I inquired and started to make my way to the mansion lobby; dismay was visible in my eyes when I spoke.

  Harrison’s face showed no reaction, there was no worry in his face, only a sense of wanting to quickly get out of my question etched on his face. He then took a deep breath and rolled his eyes before answering my question.

  “Nothing happened” He declared and his answer truly puzzled all of us.

  “What do you mean? I heard gunshots” I said, Harrison then rolled his eyes again.

  “A crazy depressed woman is stealing the guard’s gun and trying to kill herself, bet she’s dead now!” Harrison explained. “Toodles, I need a bath! You wasted my precious time, cousin” He rolled his eyes and went upstairs.

  “Damn, what a cocky wolf” I mumbled in disgust.

  I watched Harrison make his step upstairs, he looked upset at that time and I believe that face was caused because he failed to get the kiss from Luna Mira’s daughter, Demi.

  “It’s my time to shine, asshole!” I said in a low voice and smirked, I believe that I will win this challenge and put Harrison’s head down to the ground.

  The guards and I then left the mansion, leaving Harrison behind on his own. We went back to the residential area to see the circumstance there.

  As we reached the residential area, there are so many people surrounding the street, Luna Mira was there too, they were there to stop that depressed woman from killing herself, and the drama is still going that moment.

  I demanded the guards stay here when I know my father commanded us to get back immediately to the gate checkpoint so that we can continue the plan. They hesitated at first, but the guards can say nothing but agreed to my request, the three of us then stayed at the riot location instead of doing what my father had told us.

  “It’s on me! You guys don’t have to worry because I am fully responsible for this” I convinced the guards once again before we step into the crowd to see the commotion.

  “All right, Lady, as you wish” One of the guards nodded in heavy heart, they can do nothing against my wish.

  “Cool, let’s go!” A wide smile appeared on my lips afterward.

  The three of us then blended into the crowd; I was struggling to get the first line at the time because the location had already been filled by people.

  “Excuse us, please give us some space” The two guards who at that time were escorting me tried to get rid of the people who get in our way to get to the front spot at that moment, those people then gave us the way to reach the location.

  After a couple of minutes of swimming in the crowd, both of the guards and I finally arrived at the front spot, I saw Luna Mira trying to calm that depressed woman down at that time.

  When we got there, the Night-Blood’s guards tried to secure the location by telling their people to stop watching the riot and go back to their houses, but those people stay still instead of leaving. Making the guards’ tempers raise but they can do nothing to change the circumstances, my guards and I were also the ones that stay still in the location.

  The crazy woman holding a gun in her hand and was ready to shoot her head at that time. She cried; tears soaking her face down to her neck, her clothes were wet and dirty, that woman truly needed help.

  After listening to the tense conversation between Luna Mira and the depressed woman, I learned that her mate got killed by the vampires and she can’t hold it anymore, that woman said she can’t live without him that is why she rather died than have to live in this terrible world.

  My face turned slack the moment I heard her story because I could feel her pain. It was the same pain as me when I lose my mother in a car accident that day, my whole world fall apart so does that desperate woman.
