He sat himself down on the desk he never used and thought about Daniel and Veronica. He wondered why she was here. Was it because of Elizabeth and Stella? Or for her own amusement? Questions were drilling his mind as he thought about the times where Ariana almost lost Adrielle.
“Whatever,” he shrugged,” anyways, they are pissing me off too. But, before we do anything to them, we have to find out why they are here. We haven’t seen Veronica since Elizabeth and Stella kicked her out of the family for refusing to be involved in all their schemes. Granted, Ronnie is a vicious little monster, she hates us too, but she hasn’t been back to annoy the hell out of us for years. She vowed vengeance from us, because she thought that we were the reason that she lost her sisters. Stupid girl. She’s probably here to bother us, what can she really do? She’s fifteen. ” Liam’s words rolled out of his mouth effortlessly, as if he had told that story a million times before. In reality, he had dreams, memories, and random images flash in his mind every time something made him think of Stella.
“Yes, but he almost killed Adrielle” Logan contradicted annoyed by his brothers careless reaction. “Don’t you care?” Liam’s eyes turned dark. Of course he cared; he cared more than he showed. But deep down he knew that nothing could happen to Adrielle, as he would be there to protect her.
“YES I CARE!” he growled clenching his teeth. “But before we do anything, we have to know exactly why they are here. We can use it to our advantage. I doubt they are here for Adrielle or Ariana, they are probably just trying to infuriate us.” He threated towards the deranged vampires. Logan tensed up along with him furrowing his eye brows and crossing his arms against his chest.
“Alright, we are going to have to keep an eye on them, and if you see Ronnie, tell her to stay away and that just like her sisters, we are done with her pathetic ass too. While we find out why she is here, let’s just keep a close eye on Adrielle and Ariana, I don’t want them to get hurt.” He declared. He breathed in and out slowly. He slowly unclenched his hands and walked out towards the balcony to get some fresh air.
Chapter 11


The next morning, Adrielle woke up to the rotten stench of the portable restrooms outside her apartment being cleaned up. She moaned and crinkled her nose to see many construction men not even attempting to really clean it out. It turns out they were just trying to pull a prank on the building next on theirs. She sauntered over to the window, pushing it wide open and opened her mouth with annoyance. “Hey! Can’t someone sleep without you people waking them up with the damn portable restrooms!! And here’s an idea, instead of doing something as stupid and reckless as that, instead try not to get caught. Trust me on this, when the police get you…you’re going to need a pretty face to get out of it. And most of you don’t even have that!” Annoyance trailed in her words as she shouted at them. She observed how each one of the workers bowed their heads down in shame as she spoke.
“Sorry miss! It won’t happen again!” he apologized frantically. She raised an eyebrow and let out a sigh and shut the window angrily.
“What was that?” Ariana asked amused by the fact that Adrielle went off on a pack of gruesome construction workers. She flopped onto the bed and watched as Adrielle got back into her covers and tried to go back to sleep. She tossed and turned for a few good minutes until she finally popped her head out of the sheets.
“I was having the best freaking dream, and they decided they want to wake me up with the stench of shit.” She complained irritatingly. Ariana got up giggling and also decided she would have to thank the workers for getting Adrielle up on time.
“Awhh poor baby” she cooed sarcastically. She scampered out as Adrielle chucked a heavy temperpedic pillow at her. The doorbell chimed throughout the halls and she rushed to answer it. Her heart flew as she hoped that it was Logan with a bouquet of roses. When she turned the handle she felt a shock of iciness go through her body. She gasped quietly as she resumed turning the knob to open the door.
“Hey babe!” she pouted when she saw Liam standing there with a sarcastic grin on his face.” These are from Logan.” He greeted her handing her a bouquet of flowers just like she imagined. She nodded nonchalantly and gestured for him to come inside. The happiness she felt was pounding against her heart and she ran to Adrielle’s room to get her attention. Liam watched entertained at fact that she got all hyped up over flowers. He had seen Logan plan their date all night, and he knew that it was going to make her have a heart attack.
“WAKE UP!!” he heard Ariana yell to Adrielle. He listened as Adrielle struggled to stay underneath her covers.
“GO AWAY!” Adrielle yelled back annoyed. “GO BOTHER LOGAN!” Ariana scowled and chucked a coffee mug at her, thankfully, she missed.
“WAKE YOUR ASS UP! Liam IS HERE!” she explained at the top of her lungs. Adrielle felt a wave of shock as the words rolled out of Ariana’s mouth. She jolted up and hopped out of bed and ran to bathroom to put herself together. She muttered sorry to Ariana as she ran past her.
“OH MY GOSH! I look like a piece of shit. Go entertain him or something while I make myself look presentable” she ushered Ariana towards the door, practically shoving her out.
“Okay, but pick one way to ‘entertain’ him. We don’t have a pole so I can’t do that, and so I’m thinking lap dance.” She joked, laughing at Adrielle’s dazed expression.
“Um…I know he’s hot but please for the love of all that is good and pure in the godforsaken world. KEEP YOUR DAMN HANDS OFF OF HIM. “she joked back as she waltzed towards the bathroom. Liam was sitting on the couch laughing at their conversation. He stopped abruptly as Ariana walked in, not knowing that Liam was able to hear everything. He stood up as Ariana strode towards him, not nearly as clumsy as Adrielle.
“So how about that lap dance?” he asked her sarcastically with a raised eyebrow. Ariana flushed and tried changing the subject. He laughed amusedly at her.
“Uh..um..” she mustered, not knowing what to say.” You wish. Anyways…do you want some coffee or something?” Liam nodded and followed her to the kitchen.
“So, what’s Adrielle like?” he asked by accident. He knew she was her soul mate but he didn’t know a thing about her. Ariana hummed a sweet tone as she brewed the coffee.
“Well….she’s A LOT of things.” She began not knowing how or where to start. “ For one….she’s crazy, she loves getting her self into trouble. I mean its not anything like alcohol or drugs, but just stupid things. She HATES being told what to do. If you tell her to go left, she will purposely go right, even if she wants to go left too. She’s energetic and optimistic as hell sometimes. Shes a great friend, but if you mess with her she will reply in the most aggressive nature possible. That’s one thing I’ve always loved about her, she can be the sweetest person you will meet, but if you mess with her, she will be the biggest bitch you will meet. I’ve always called her badass jokingly….um…what else? Oh, she’s the kind of girl that can walk perfectly fine in 8 inch heels, but will trip over air wearing flip flops. She’s girly, but edgy at the same time. She’s kind of rebellious and she is really, really stubborn. She may seem tough and carefree on the outside, but she is literally the most loving person you will meet on the inside. And if you get to know her better you will begin to see how vulnerable she can really be. She loves to dance, she was on the dance team in high school. We both were…um…overall great grades and she has a ton of sarcasm. So you’re going to have to get used to that. Oh, she absolutely HATES to show any emotion that deals with tears or sorrow. If something hurts her she pretends as if she doesn’t care. I think I’ve only seen her cry twice in my entire life, literally. ” Ariana smiled to herself as she thought about the sister she so dearly loved.
“Damn. I didn’t figure her to be like this. She looks like she’s full of innocence and she wouldn’t hurt anyone. ” He told her. His mind was truly blown, but none the less, he loved her more and more knowing these things about her.
“Yeah…no one does. Haha! I remember at school, teachers would always think of her as the good kid on the first day, but when the days went by she would get into so much trouble. She is SOOO mischievious and she loves to have fun! She’s always telling me to chill and stop being a worry wart, but someone has to worry for the both of us.” she replied as she handed him a mug full of hot steaming coffee. Liam’s eyes dilated a little when he caught the scent of the coffee filling his nostrils. He slurped it up as if it were nothing. He jumped a little when Adrielle caught him by surprise.
“Hey!” she greeted him as she sauntered down the stairs. She grasped on the railing, hoping not to fall on her face again. He looked up and grinned widely as he watched her walk closer and closer to him. He watched as her violet top brought out her emerald eyes. They seemed to shine as the ray of sun hit her face.
“Hey there” he replied coolly. He put the mug in the sink and kissed her gently on the cheek. His mouth watered as he felt the blood run through her cheeks as she blushed a crimson red color. Ariana watched them longing for Logan to show up. She grabbed her purse and headed out the door.
“Adrielle, I’m going shopping! Do you want anything from the mall?” she asked as she stood in the doorway waiting for her reply. Adrielle snapped to attention, and thought about that amazing pair of ruby earrings that she had seen in the local jewelry store.
“Well...” she began nervously. “ It is my birthday in a few days…so… I was thinking those ruby earrings I like so much…” her eyes pleading Ariana to buy them for her. Ariana’s heart dropped when she realized she couldn’t afford it and plus, she had already gotten Adrielle her
