Amelie's pov
____________________
I didn't have breakfast today. I was waiting for everyone to finish so I could go. Aerowyn has been giving me creepy eyes for a while, so I was scared. Besides, sitting with everyone is too stressful. Reason no. 1. They would give me any Kail weird looks and try to get us to talk to each other. No. 2. Kail would be there.
I was currently at the library. I looked around for an interesting book. Then I remembered about the story I have started to read but didn't finish. So I took my phone and sat down on a seat and opened .
Bad boy summer.
............
I was so engrossed in the book that I didn't notice the door open. I didn't even feel like being watched. Neither did I feel the presence behind me.
That was until the large shadow fell on the table. My eyes widened as I turned around and almost screamed.
"Kail." I relaxed.
But then I stiffened. "wh-what are you doing here?" I asked him, trying to hide my fear.
"why weren't you at the breakfast table?" he asked emotionlessly.
"because I wasn't hungry." I replied standing up from the chair and putting my phone in my pocket.
"I can tell that you are lying." he said.
"why do you care?" I asked him sharply.
"I don't."
"then leave." I said to him.
"I asked you a question. So answer me!"
"I won't. It's none of your business, Kail! Get out of here! I don't want to see you right now!" I yelled.
He growled in anger and pushed me against a shelf. "stop this attitude right now!"
"or else?" I taunted.
"or else I will..."
"what? Or else what? Tell me. What would you do? Hit me? Like you did yesterday? Sink your claws into my arm again? Push me away so that my head will hit somewhere again? Huh? What would you do Kail?! Tell me! WHAT WOULD YOU DO?!" I screamed hitting his chest. "the last thing that could happen is death." I whispered aggressively.
"I'm scared of many things. But death is not one of them. I have been at the mouth of death since I was born. So I don't fear it."
But I am afraid of you.
His eyes darkened as he stared at me.
"you brought me back here. You brought me back into this hell hole. You promised to never hurt me again. You broke it. You hurt me." I jabbed my fingers into his chest.
"but guess what?" I asked. "you can't break me. Not again. Because you can't break an already broken person." I gave him a tight lipped smile and tried to walk away past him.
But he caged me in his arms. "shut up." he fumed. "what? Is the truth that difficult to deal with?" I laughed bitterly. "well... to me it was. I actually thought you had changed. That you would never physically hurt me no matter how angry you are. But I was wrong. Don't worry. I have learned to accept the truth..."
He smashed his lips on mine, shushing me up. He gripped my arms and pulled them above my head and pressed them against the shelf. When I tried to move my lips away from his, he bit my lips hard. Ouch.
...............
I was breathless as I fell to the ground when he let go of me. Tears fell down my cheeks. He didn't even spare a glance at me as he buttoned his jeans and walked out of the library, leaving me alone.
He used me. Again.
I was tired. Exhausted. I was hurt.
He hurt me again. Physically.
I looked at my arms again. Blood was seeping through the wounds. I touched the side of his face, wincing. Why is he like this?
I stood up tiredly and wore my pants and jeans. I sniffed and wiped the tears from my eyes, making my way out of the library.
Why is it always me?
I walked out of the library and to my new room. The guest room. I locked the door behind me. And slipped down. I can't go through this pain. Ever again.
"I want to forget what pain is." I whispered to myself.
It was then I felt like something was suffocating me. The sound of laughter filled the room. I felt like my lungs were dying. My hands flew to my neck as I gasped for air.
Stupid girl.
Was the last thing I heard.

Melle's pov

"I'm confused. I wanna know." I whispered to myself as I sat down on the bed.
"who do you think she is? You must know. You are one of Ereka's servants. Tell me what you know. Tell me who I truly am." I stood up and gripped the man's neck. "tell me, Ronald. Who is she."
"I won't.. Tell. You... ever. You are.. Breaking the rules. She... will be so m... mad if she finds out." Ronald coughed.
"oh no she won't find out." I smiled.
"she... will."
"oh yeah? And where's the witness?" I asked ever so innocently.
"me. I am the witness."
"aww. So loyal." I chuckled before tightening my grip around his neck. "There'll be no witness when I'm done with you. There'll be none. You'll be lying six foot underneath me then." I smirked.
"you can't... kill me. I'm one.. of Boss's best ser..vants. You are just... a little mutt."
"you humor me, Ronald. Do you know how why I am her best assassin? Do you know why she assigns me all the difficult jobs? Do you have any idea why she made me the leader of all the other assassins? Oh my my my. You have no idea do you?" I started laughing.
"I am almost at her level now, if not already. It's why she never confronts me herself nowadays. She always sends someone else to talk on her behalf. She knows I can be a threat to her the day I get out of her clutches." I whispered. I saw fear invade his eyes.
"do you know that Ereka has been planning to get rid of you?" I grinned. "I think I'll just do her a favour and get rid of you myself. Or else you can tell me the truth. Then I'll let you live. Till Ereka decides it's time to kill you."
"you are... lying." he hissed.
"come on. Just kill him already." my best friend, Miah whined.
"so will you tell me or not?" I asked the old hag.
"n-never."
"suit yourself then." I muttered and snapped his head.
Poof! So weak.
"I can't believe that he is one of her best servants. What an excuse." I heard Helena mutter. I turned towards her.
"I know right, kid."
"don't call me a kid. You know I'm not. Just because I look like a kid doesn't mean I am. You know I can kill you with a snap of my fingers." she rolled her eyes.
"yeah whatever kid. I saved your sorry ass." I grumbled.
"don't call me a kid." she said again.
"ok then, old hag."
"just because I am a few hundreds of years or something like that older than you doesn't make me a old hag. Do I look like an old hag, bitch?" she demanded.
"well... you look like a 4 year old." I smiled. She glared at me. "you know I'm not lying. You don't age. So. I wonder if you'll still look like this after around another hundred years." I smirked.
"you know I'll start aging at some point and again stop aging when I turn 25 or something."
"I know."
"how did you enter here, you little devil?!" Miah exclaimed.
"there is a window up here. There is a huge tree near it. I climbed."
"and you didn't get caught?!"
"you sound like you wish I got caught!"
"obviously. I wish I could get rid of you."
"shut it both of you." I muttered.
"Helena?" I asked in a serious voice. "yes?" she asked. "can you go and hide his body somewhere?" I pointed at Ronald's dead body and Helena groaned.
"why do I always have to clean your dirty work?!" she whined.
"because I saved your sorry ass from those vampires. Be thankful I keep you a secret from them. Now go and do your job, my servant." I rolled my eyes.
"now go and do your job, my servant." Helena mocked me before taking his body as if it's a weightless leaf. And jumped out of the window and on to the tree.
"she is a devil in disguise of a kid's form." Miah sighed. "I still can't believe she put a rat's tail and cat fur in my hamburger."
"well it was a hilarious sight. Anyways... I gotta go." I said.
"where? To meet your sister?"
"yes." I said.
"so you believe she is your sister?" she asked.
"yeah... I kind of do. I don't think she is a bad person. She has been talking to me for a while now. She is sweet and kind. She is hurt yet she tries to hide it from me. She is so different from everyone I have ever met. I feel pain when she does. And she feels pain when I do. It all makes sense doesn't it? Think about it Miah. A woman asked me to run away from these vampires. But they caught me. For some reason they were looking for me. And ever since then I have been with them. I never tried to find the reason. I just went with the flow. And now they asked me to find someone who looks exactly like me. Someone who claims to know me. And she also has that electric marking on her back, just like mine. Why do you think Ereka sent me to get that girl? There must be something I don't know. Why would that girl claim that I'm her sister for no reason? And think about it. My name is Melle. Amelie said my name is Ar-Melle. Only a little difference." I reasoned.
"so yes. I think I believe her." I smiled.
"good luck then. I want to meet her one day." Miah smiled. "you will. I still haven't Amara though." I shrugged.
................
Her room was awfully quiet. There was an eerie feeling in the room. I looked around the room for a while. I couldn't find her anywhere. I walked towards her headboard when I saw a picture.
3 identical girls were in the picture. A woman and a man behind them. They all looked happy. I noticed that the girl in the middle was smiling brightly, showing her teeth, which don't have the upper front 2 teeth. She was the shortest and had mint green eyes... just like Amelie's.
The girl on her left side with a goofy smile, her arms raised up in happiness, was the second taller than Amelie. She was holding Amelie's left hand so Amelie's left hand was in the air too. She also had lime green eyes... I remember Amelie telling me that Amara had that coloured eyes.
The last girl. She was on Amelie's right side. She had a genuine smile and had a twinkle in her eyes as she hugged Amelie.. She has... turquoise eyes. Just like my left eye.
It really was true then. I am her sister. We are triplets. Oh my God.
So Ereka wants me to bring my sister to her? No.. No way. I won't let that happen. I can't.
I looked around the room. But couldn't find Amelie. "Ammy? Where are you?" I whispered.
Suddenly the door burst open and Amelie's mate, Kail and some other people walked in.
The girl who was wearing black leather clothing and had a bit of a goth look walked towards me. "Ammy! Where the fuck on earth have y- oh my god... your scent.. Your eyes! Fuck... You aren't her."
My eyes widened.
"you fucker! You kidnapped her, didn't you? Tell me where the fuck you took her?!" The lycan king.. Artorius walked in, growling at me.
"I.. I didn't-"
"tell. Me. Where. You. TOOK HER! NOW!" Kail growled and ran towards me. I was sort of expecting it, so I jumped away from him. Whoo! Thanks to the vampire speed.
"you bitch! Tell me where you..."
"Aahhhhhh!" A sudden pain occurred on my left shoulder. I clutched my shoulder. "Amelie. Shit." I walked away from them when they tried to attack me again.
"guys! Stop attacking her! It must be Ereka who played with her mind and made her forget about Ammy. But she is still Ammy's sister! Just like Amara." that goth looking girl said.
"Callie is right. They won't forgive us if we hurt her." a girl who looked like the goth girl- I mean Callie.. Said. But this girl doesn't look gothic.
"but she still kidnapped Amelie! Didn't she?" Kail said.
"Kail! Amara is gone too! She left a note saying she won't come back. She said that she is going to find Amelie even if that's the last thing she does in her whole life. She said that once she finds Ammy, that she won't let Ammy come back because... I quote 'Kail you mother fucker don't deserve her!' that's what she said." a guy with black hair and amber eyes with blue specks walked in and exclaimed.
But then he froze and started sniffing the room. That was until his eyes landed on me. I know that look. Oh fuck no!
"I swear to god, if you say that fucking word, I would smash your face and feed it to the vultures." I hissed. He gapped at me. "but... but..."
"I don't have time for all this drama, bitch!" with that I jumped out of the window.
.............
"where do you think she left?" Helena asked me as we walked through the forest. "I have no damn clue." I replied grumpily.
"what got your pants in a twist?"
"that fucking toad."
"you mean your mate? You know he has a name. And that is Caden." Helena shrugged.
"shut the fuck up. Kiddo. We have a more important mission than that." I muttered.
"it's not everyday you get a mate." She looked sad. And I understand her. She has been living all her life without growing up.
"I know. But to me, family is much more important right now. I'll find them first and then if I have time I can go and kiss his ass." I said.
"kiss his ass, huh?" Helena said smugly.
"you know what? It's so weird to see a 4 year old being badass and saying that stuff." I looked at her.
"well I'm not a 4 year old. I'm... around... 1000 or something years old now? Idk. I don't care either." she shrugged.
