Elle tried to rush downstairs to at least tell him that she was not even sure if Boone was indeed the person that she had seen in town that day, in case he went out looking for him. But when she went downstairs to look for him, Elle found that Sebastian and even Alexander were already gone. These men really worked incredibly fast!

The only ones left were the twins guarding the door and grinning at her.

"Sorry, Princess. But... you are not allowed to step out of this door tonight." Alexis said in a firm voice. The boy was obviously taking his job very seriously. Elle could not help but see how much he resembled his father, Alex at that moment. Alexis would definitely grow up to be a heartbreaker in future!

"Don\'t worry, Princess Elle, I will do my best to accompany you. I have already listed down a few things that we could do tonight to keep the boredom away." Alice approached her and stretched her hand out to her. A folded paper containing her list of things to do was on her palm. "It\'s a long list because I don\'t know which activity you would like the most."

Taking the paper and unfolding it, Elle scanned through the items before smiling after reading it.

,m "How thoughtful of you." Elle hugged the adorable girl tight, itching to squeeze her. "Can I at least ask where your uncle went? He went back to the Black Forest, right?"

The twins tilted their heads. They moved so synchronized in that moment and even had the exact same expression that it made Elle giggle with their cuteness. "I think so, Princess." It was Alexis who answered and Alice simply nodded.

After dinner and playing Supermario Bros with Elle for an hour, Elle finally went off to bed. Of course, the twins had both accompanied her to their door.

Elle was not worried about the twins not sleeping early anymore like how she used to during her first couple of nights in this house. She was already used to it and she had already learned from her studying that they really do not need as much sleep like humans do.

Once she was in bed, Elle\'s mind brought her back to that moment when Sebastian had asked her what he should do to not make her fake her smile again. Her heart began to thump hard at the thought of it. It seemed as though he was truly worried for her, and that he really cared for her.

She replayed that moment many times in her mind until she finally fell asleep. Completely oblivious of the ferocious hunt that was happening in town, all for her sake.

The next time she opened her eyes, it was already three in the morning.

She used to never go out of her room even when she woke up at midnight or dawn. But tonight, something in her wanted her to leave her room. She hesitated for a moment but she eventually got up, took the glass pitcher and left her room.

She was about to take her first step on the stairs when she heard a faint sound coming from the living room. That had her heart rate accelerating as she had a sudden fear if someone had broken into the house. But she dispelled that thought almost immediately after it sprung up. It was then that she heard voices floating up the stairs.

"It\'s strange because I had already locked up the borders the moment I heard that Izabelle was missing. This Boone guy should not be able to escape since I had not lifted my orders yet." Alexander\'s voice echoed. Elle could hear that he sounded puzzled as he said that. "And this Boone guy is only a human."

Elle bit her lip. Dear lord... Sebastian had really gone ahead to search for Boone instead of going back to the Black Forest?! She needed to stop them! From what Alexander said, Elle seemed to have gathered that they could not find Boone. It seems that what she saw was indeed a hallucination!!

Feeling bad that Sebastian and everyone else had been troubled to search the town, she quickly rushed downstairs. Her face was pale but her cheeks were stained red due to embarrassment of having made a fool out of herself.

Everyone was in the living room. Alexander, Sebastian, Caelian and another man that she did not recognize.

Alexander and Caelian who were facing her way lifted their gazes towards her when a buzz of a vibrating phone broke the silence. Alexander immediately received the call and then the atmosphere just instantly turned utterly suffocating.

The next thing Elle knew, everyone moved in a blur. She watched as Sebastian sprung from his seat. What had happened?

"Seb..." she could not even finish calling out his name. He had moved past her like he had not even seen her.

He was so fast that even her hair was blown over her shoulders and she was pushed a step back. She believed it was because of the power of his movement that even though his body did not touch her, it was as though she had been forcefully pushed aside by him.

Elle just stood there, paralyzed as her mouth hung open. What happened? What could have made them react like that ... that Sebastian did not even bother glancing over at her?

She could not help the pang of ache that had stabbed her sharply in the heart. She hated this. She really hated how easily she was getting hurt by this person.

Pacing back and forth by the door, Elle ended up biting her nails in agitation. She had a bad feeling about this. She kept praying that she was wrong. That nothing had happened in the Black Forest and that Azy and Alicia and Abi were definitely alright.

But she knew that no one would have elicited that kind of reaction from Alexander and Sebastian but them.
