“With the sound of the siren, the party would be begin!”

Alex’s voice could be heard so authoritatively. He hit the big red button on a black box that stood on the stage, and the sound so loud like a tsunami alarm could be heard shaking the room. The sound of it reverberated in the whole hall, and brought the cheers from the audiences. The party had begun.

The guys had things to do, So they left me after brought me to the hall. There, I met Jesse who was waiting for me, along with Theo’s friend earlier, named Andrew. Psst...I guessed they had a thing now.

The party was so crowded. The music was loud, the people danced together, and the smells were promiscuous, I couldn't even put my finger what smell it was. I was so overwhelmed.

“I’ll find some fresh air.” I told Jesse and she nodded.

“Don’t go too far, ok!” Now my turn to nod.

I walked to the outside where the people less crowded. I inhaled deeply and felt the chilly night air filled my lungs. I could feel it slowly taking a place of the party air that stayed before.

I kept walking slowly. The night was so silent and invited me to explore the area of school more. I never stepped my feet on the night time here.

The silence made me thinking. I wasn’t very good with people. There are so many people in the Hall and i couldn't make any moves there. I knew many of them, but they felt different in the class. Here they stayed with their circle of friends and acted more carefree. Approaching and talking to them felt like disturbing the calm river. If I did that, the river would raged.

I didn't talk about the situation in there yet. The air was thick with the smell of room fragrance, the food and beverages, and even people's smells could bring me overwhelm. I'd lived for quite long, but still couldn't comprehend how to manage the smells I inhaled to not to bother me so much.

I walked further slowly, looking at the moon up there. I didn’t realize I walked to the quiet area of the school. I was awaken by the sounds of footsteps behind me.

“You’ve walked so far, darling!“

The voice brought me shivered, in the bad way. It made my skin crawling, like sensing a danger.

I slowly turned and met two men with a pirate and an astronaut costume.

They smiled wickedly and I didn’t feel comfortable with it. I didn’t think they’re students since they looked like a middle age man. But I wasn’t too sure about it since I wasn’t good in remembering people. Maybe they were the lecturers, or school staff.

They walked toward me. I tried to maintain my composure.

“Excuse me, gentlemen. I’ll back to the party now.”

I walked to the direction of the hall, passing them.

“No..no, darling. The party is here now.”

The man with the pirate costume grabbed my hand with iron grip. I could feel it hurt.

“Please let me go!”

I pleaded them, but they ignored me. They laughed like a maniac.

“You have to follow us. There’s so many questions waiting for you.”

The man with astronaut costume grabbed my chin and brought my face closer to him. I could smelled his bad breath. I flinched but their grip was so hard, I felt numb. The pirate man held my arms so hard.

I glared hard at them, with some energy, I use my high heels and stomped on the pirate’s foot.

He was mad, like I’d expected. But I didn’t expect he would be so mad and grabbed my neck.

"Don't make me angry, little woman! I can make you suffer."

“Let me go, you son of a bitch!!” I tried to hit him multiple times and took his hand out of my breathing way. But he's stronger than I thought.

"It's impossible you can fight us. Just follow us, and you will get no harm" The astronaut man tried to bargain.

I tried to kick him, but my feet were dangling in the air.

“Don’t be mad at us, darling! You should be mad at them. This happened because you are their soulmate.”

I was stunned, not only from the grip, but also the word, soulmate. The world I'd heard so many times. I also heard that word from my mom, the only reason she left her past to live with my father.

Maybe I could asked the guys about it, but first, I need to free my self.

I took a deep breath and screamed, hoping someone would heard me, moreover, one of the guys. But the astronaut hit my face. I could see my head pounding and my eyes blurry.

“Don’t you dare open your mouth again or I’ll do more than that.” He treated and the pirate covered my mouth with his hand.

I tried to gain my consciousness back, but it’s hard when they held many parts of my body. I couldn't even stand on my feet.

They dragged me somewhere. I wanted to scream again but it’s muffled by pirate’s hand.

They mumbled something, almost whispering. Suddenly, the astronaut flew to the ground far away from me like being hitting by a big force.

I fell to the ground for a few meters. I blinked and saw my guys came after me. Their eyes were shocked to see me in this state, but I thanked them silently for coming for me.

Edward pov

Everything I saw was red, like the color of blood on the side of her mouth. My rage overpowering me and I hit the man with the astronaut costume until he flew far away from my baby.

I followed him and hit him again on his face. I could gave him more hits than what he’s done to her.

“Stop, Edward! Don’t kill him! We need to know who send them!” Alex warned me from behind.

With the last hit to his stomach, I gave him to Alex and William.

I turned my attention to my soulmate. She was held by Dane, but she collapsed to the ground. Her eyes were wide opened to see Theo sliced the pirate opened with his sharp nails, while Lucifer held him with deadly grip.

Theo could grew his nails long and retreated them back like a lion. The nails were stronger than any metal and sharper than a knife. Cut open a body was just easy as cutting the cake.

We had witnessed it for so many times, but definitely it’s the first for Amy. She was terrified and shaking.

Furthermore, Lucifer decided to surrender to his blood lust and bit the pirate until he lost his head.

Damn, Lucifer! You’re terrifying her.
Henry walked to her and held her face.

“It’s okay, strawberry. Look at me! Everything is okay.”

She blinked multiple times, and I could heard her breathing and heartbeat going slower. So he loosened his hands. She turned her head from the horror of the pirate’s opened body and lost head, but unfortunately, she turned it to the wrong scene.

Alex and William tore the astronaut’s limbs like a toothpick, complete with the sounds of bones cracking, and fresh flesh torn.

Amy’s eyes were full with horror. Her face was going pale and looked like she couldn’t stand it anymore. She lost her consciousness and going limp on Dane’s hold.

Jessie walked to us slowly. Her eyes were full of tears.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t take care of her well. If only I didn’t take my eyes off of her…”

“Don’t think about it, now. If you’re late to inform us, we definitely couldn’t save her on time.”

When she ran toward me with face full of regret and worry, my mind was directly to Amy. I didn’t want something bad happened to her.

We brought Amy back to the mansion, leaving everything behind. We would inform our men to take care of the horrible scene. We didn’t care about the party anymore. The most important for us now was to make sure that our soulmate was okay.
