Chapter Ten

Kira walked out of the kitchen and calmly made her way toward the front staircase, peeking into every room she passed for a sign of Tristan. Nothing.

When she reached the front of the house, Kira reached for the door, hoping to catch him outside. But when she touched the handle, the unmistakable sound of footsteps clunked in the hallway behind her. Kira’s entire body stopped. She held her breath, waiting for Aldrich’s voice in her ear, waiting for him to somehow know where she had been.

“Kira—”

“Tristan!” Kira practically screamed and turned around to jump into his arms. Her heart pounded inside her chest. They needed to leave now, before Aldrich could stop them.

“Where have you been? I’ve been looking everywhere for you!” He said quietly into her ear.

Kira stepped back and shook her head. She couldn’t tell him anything while Aldrich was around. He may still be in his soundproof chamber with that horrible woman pretending to be her mother, but Kira didn’t want to take that chance.

Tristan tilted his head, looking at her questioningly. Kira bit her lip and sighed, before realizing she had the perfect solution. Kira pulled out her phone and let her hands slide along the keyboard.

“We need to talk, where Aldrich can’t hear us. We need to leave right now.” She typed and handed the phone over to Tristan, whose eyes widened at the words. He nodded and a few stray strands of black hair fell over his eyes, hiding them from Kira. She reached her hand up to brush them from his face, staring at his chiseled features for one prolonged moment, relishing the love ever-present in his expression. Soon, that look would be gone. Kira shuddered at the thought, not wanting to think about the next hour of her life. Living it one time would be enough, so she retreated from his strong figure to twist the doorknob.

She opened the large wooden door, turning to make her way outside, when it slammed shut in her face. Kira tugged on the door, but it wouldn’t budge. And then she heard footsteps on the stairs, solid thumps that echoed in her chest sending a chill down her spine. With one deep breath, Kira turned around to face Aldrich.

“Leaving so soon? We were just coming down to join you for a mid-afternoon snack,” Aldrich drawled. His black suit was stark against the white marble steps. The only color on his body was the flush in his lips, letting Kira know his former snack had only recently ended. Kira hoped Miko was still breathing somewhere in the castle.

Behind Aldrich, the blonde vampire started her descent. Kira noticed she had changed into a deep purple gown with a corset that cinched into her small waist. The folds of this dress were smooth, not wrinkled from begging for her life at Aldrich’s feet. The crescent-shaped cuts from Aldrich’s nails had disappeared from her hand, and her expression was warm and loving, as any mother’s should be.

Thinking quickly, Kira grabbed her phone from Tristan’s hand, holding it up like a trophy for Aldrich to inspect.
