The Devil's Contract

Chapter 20: Blindfold

Chapter 20:Blindfold

[KAITLIN'S P.O.V.]

I've been walking through this hallway, aimlessly, as I try to find one person.

The one person who annoys me on the first day we met, the guy who tried to take advantage of me on our second meeting and also the guy who gives me strange feelings when I'm around him.

And yes, that would be Archer, the jerk who happens to make my life a little crazy cause I still can't find him at all.

Looking back, I had forgotten the real reason as to why did Cade brought me to the living room earlier.

I'm fully aware that the others are worried about me and all, but it seems that there was something else and to be honest, I went out of my way to find Archer instead of knowing their plan which made me a bit disappointed with myself.

Sighing, I stop walking and lean my whole frame on the wall as I contemplate whether I should continue my unsuccessful search or just walk back to the living room.

As I try to decide which I should do, I heard a sound. It was faint but I'm sure it was the sound of wings which made me curious as to why would there be one inside the house?

Having made a decision, I suck in a deep breath before pushing myself off the wall and walk towards where the sound is.

As I walk further to where it is, the clearer the sound becomes and just like what I had suspected, it truly sounded like wings.

I stop in front of the same room that Archer was supposed to take me.

The sound disappeared making me doubt that its coming from this very room but I also can't deny the strong urge to open it.

And just like earlier, I'm torn between two decisions. To open it or not and just like what happened earlier a decision was made for me when someone hug me from behind, sending electric shocks to my whole body.

"Relax, its me" Chills of delight runs through my spine as I felt Archer's breath on my ear trailing down to my neck.

As if sensing it, I could feel him smirk as he brush his lips on my neck making me weak on my knees.

'His effect on me is too strong, Damn!' I thought as I struggle to find a way to stop him but my body seems to betray me.

Satisfied with his little torture, He turn me towards his way and gently push my back to lean on the wall as he block all escape from me.

"Looking for me?" His piercing green eyes watched me with an emotion that I can't decipher.

Unable to utter a word, I nodded in response.

My answer seems to brighten him as he, genuinely smiles at me, making me stun for a moment for it was gone instantly.

Silence overpower our surrounding as we lock our gazes at one another without the intention of breaking.

But fate says otherwise when someone from our left caught our attention by coughing.

Cade was smirking while Neil look at us without any emotion on his face.

"Sorry to interrupt but everything's ready" Cade explain but his words made me confused.

"Ready?" I, curiously, asked.

The three guys only smiled my way while I frowned but neither one of them answered my question which irks me.

I was about to asked them again when Lilian push Archer away from me and hug me.

"We are so going to have fun tonight!" she, excitedly, said but before I could ask all of them as to what's happening.

Lilian blindfolded me making me gasp and when I was about to take it off someone slap my hands.

"You can't take it off yet" I instantly recognize whose voice it belongs to and I was positive that it was my brother, Nick.

I could feel everyone was heading somewhere and it seems that I'm the only one who is blindfolded due to their excessive movements.

"Are we there yet?" I ask

"Nope"

"Not yet"

"Not even close"

Was their response while some just groan and chuckle which only corrected me that my guess was right , that I was the only one who is truly blindfolded.

I had trip and fell for so many times as they guide me to who knows where while all they did was apologize and chuckle at my situation.

"Hop on" Someone told me

"What?" I ask, confuse, since I can't see a thing.

I didn't move from where I stand, afraid that I might fall or something which only made a certain someone groan.

With a yelp, someone carried me and hop on to what freaking thing it might be.

I heard doors closing and an engine turning on made me freak out a bit.

"Don't kill me yet!" I shouted to who knows since I'm deprived of sight.

"What?" All of them ask me but instead of clearing things up, I decided to just shut up.

Everyone groan but let it go which is a good thing or else someone might spill their plan to me just to ease me up.

As we head to who knows where, everyone remained silent, lost in their own thoughts.

The lights from the roads kind of help me to remain calm cause, honestly, the darkness gives me the creep with all the nightmares that I've been having and all.

And speaking of nightmares, I remembered one particular event that left me wondering and its all about a black wings.

The same color as the one left in my room at home, the same one that I kept in my bag and the same one that I saw in the forest covered in blue flames without turning it into ashes.

But before I could look through it, the car stop somewhere and everyone got out except for me after all I can't do much due to their stupid idea of a blindfold.

"Here, we are" I heard Neil's voice.

"Here? where?" I ask Neil but instead of getting my answer, they ignored me.

Well, not exactly cause I felt someone's hand on mine, creating a series of electricity to run down my arm.

"Let me guide you, princess"

Thank you so so much, I really appreciate it and to say that I'm ecstatic would be an understatement.

A friend of mine gave me an advice to continue the story as it is and once I've completed it, I would just re write and also edit it to the best as I can which is why I'll be continuing this story to the vest of my ability.

Chapter 21 is already on the way as it is cause I've been writing for 3 weeks cause I really miss #TDC and also you guys.

Oh and I'll be updating some revisions but sadly I can't today because I can't use my laptop and our pc is being used but I'll announce my update once I could use on of those things.
