Half Demon Is Not Half Bad

chapter 22

Don't play until you get to where they start walking onto the dance floor.

Zayden p.o.v

We get to the mansion Duke told us to go to at 7 that night. Rhys comes over to my door and opens it for me. He extends his hand so I take it acting the part. Stopping at the bottom of the stairs that lead to the door to start panicking.

"Linc you told me dad is die?" I question him.

" He is but we just need to see who the fake is." And with that him and peirce starts up the stairs.

" Okay let's go." Rhys voice came behind my ear.

" I can't." I can't move because what if my dad is really alive.

" Let me tell you this." He is now in front of me with my face in his hands. "With time there is no future with future there is no time."

" Okay." How does he know that only me and Linc know that. It is our secret phrase. It means live in the now because there is no time for looking into the future.

Making it to the top of the steps to see a whole lot of people. But I can't tell if they our supernatural creatures. A guy to the left of us came up to us.

" What is your names." He asked holding a glass clip board in his hand and a pen in the other.

"Rhys Peirce and Zayden Rivers." I start thinking it is so weird that Rhys and peirce have the same name to I guess. Not thinking about it any more to see we are now going to walk down the stairs.

Seeing everyone turn to Rhys and I as we gracefully walk down the stairs. Once we are on level ground Rhys leads me to a table in the corner. Linc and peirce shows up a few seconds later. I take a seat to face the dance floor as the other three sat down to.

" I have not seen our brother yet." Linc speaks first with his roaming eyes making sure he missed nothing.

" Well, he is here somewhere?" I put my hand on his to help his temper lower.

" I need a drink." Linc said getting up and walking away as Peirce gets up.

" I better go watch out for him." Pierce says but before he walks away I speak.

" I hope you know you two don't have to hide your relationship from me. You two are perfect for one another." I smile at him as he shows a little smile then walks away.

"Do you want to dance?" Rhys asked me standing up holding his hand out.

" Yes, that sounds very sweet of you to ask Rhys." I put my hand in his standing.

Play the song at the top now if you want to.

He leads me to the dance floor. Putting the hand that is not in his hand on his shoulder. As his other hand goes to my waist. We slowly move in a small circle. Looking into his eyes to see a flick of fire starting into his silver grey eyes. I wish I could figure out what he is hiding from me but I know he will not tell me. And it hurts that he is hiding stuff from me. Also it is bad that it feels like the three of them don't want me to know something. Keeping my eyes looking into his to just enjoy this moment we have. He lets go of my waist and spin me then brings me back to the position we were in. Just noticing how close we our the only thing I can hear is our breathing and heart beats.

" You look very pretty tonight." I feel his warm mouth on the outside of my ear.

" T-thank you." I just stuttered I never stuttered in my life before. " You look super hot."

" Thanks the only time I seen you in a dress was when we where playing truth or dare." He press closer to me and I just notice I stopped breathing.

" I wish I remembered that day it was along time ago." I tell him back before I say something I can't let slip out.

" It was one of the moments I know I was in love with you." I can't believe he just told me he loves me.

But before I could say the words back I hear Duke's voice. Looking to see him talking to a dark brown haired tall mysterious man. That look like a older version of Linc. Then it hits me that is our dad. But it can't be he is died.

" Rhys over there Duke is." I tell him pointing in his direction.
