"What are you doing awake by this time?" He asked. Sweat was formed on my forehead that I started hiccuping. I walked to the stand and drank the unfinished water. "Umm. I had a nightmare" I said truthfully.

"Go to sleep" He demanded and I just nodded. I don't know what's wrong with me. Why am I obeying his order all of a sudden?

"What were you doing outside?" I abruptly asked. 

Wow, Bella. Good question.

"What do you mean?" He questioned looking at me curiously and confused. 

"I saw you outside. That was the reason why I looked afraid and was on my knee" I looked at his eyes trying to find a glint of understanding. 

He sighed from frustration and anxiety. Was he up to something? Or tired?

"I was in my room all this time. Go to sleep Isabella" He said and turned to leave. I just watched how he exited my room. I somehow pitied the guy. 

I plopped on my bed and sighed in frustration. I'm tired and might as well go to sleep as he said.

I decided to check on what Isabella was doing since the time I saw her with the enemies. I walked up to her room to find her on her knees scared and confused. She finally registered my presence and turned up to me. She had sweat on her forehead when it's obvious that the A/C was turned on.

"What are you doing awake by this time?"I asked her massaging my jaw. She quickly stood up from her knee and started hiccuping. I watched her slowly as she drank the half water on the side stand. 

 "Umm. I had a nightmare" She said. I tried reading her mind but only ended up with her telling the truth. What a nightmare. 

"Go to sleep" I demanded and was about going when she asked a strange question."What were you doing outside?" She suddenly asked. I looked at her confused. What is she talking about??

"What do you mean?"I asked her. I was curious to know what she had to tell me. Did she saw me outside?

"I saw you outside. That was the reason why I looked afraid and was on my knee"She admitted. I looked at her before scratching my neck.

I sighed in frustration. I knew what she was talking about. Someone used my appearance and faked being ME. I looked at her.

"I was in my room all this time. Go to sleep Isabella" I added and existed her room to do small talk with Charles. 

....

"Charles. Using your powers and faking being me? I asked Charles who was in his room playing video games. Charles was my old friend when we were in Demon Academy in the demon world. He uses to be my buddy and we'll play video games all night when we skipped class. It's not surprising that he's still obsessed with video games.

Typical Charles.

"Whatever. I was hungry and needed to drink blood" He replied, his attention on the game in front of him.

"She saw you," I said softly and low. 

"You mean the pretty meat?" He asked. His focus was now on me.

"She's not a meat and is not yours. Don't dare come near her unless I'll cut your head off your neck. 

"Someone's possessive. He mocked me in his playing baby voice. 

I only growled. "I'm not possessive over a stubborn girl. 

"Stubborn?? My type" He smirked.

"Don't even think about it" I gave my warning. He raised his hand in the air like he backed down.
