A gush of wind made the quiet trees dance above her, pulling Elle\'s attention away from Snow.

Looking up, she watched the leaves twirl about their merry dance to a song that she could not hear. This feeling... she could not quite put it into words, but the feel of this wind was just different. It was just not normal to her. It instantly reminded her of that night when Alexander...

Elle\'s eyes stretched wide as she whipped her head towards the direction where she came from. Alexander was here?!

Suddenly, she was caught in a dilemma. Should she turn around and head back? Or should she continue to follow Snow?

She did not have evidence that Alexander was indeed here. But her gut feeling told her confidently that it was so. The thought that Sebastian might be with Alexander right now had her taking a step away from Snow. The possibility that she would be able to see Sebastian again was too strong of a pull for her.

The wolf growled lowly and silently. It was not one of an angry growl but one that was surely asking her not to leave.

Turning to Snow, Elle\'s expression was apologetic. "I\'m sorry, Snow. I really need to go back. Will you come with me instead? Let\'s go meet with Alexander and Sebastian together."

Snow did not immediately react. His intelligent looking blue eyes stayed focused on her, unblinking.

"And I can\'t just go with you without telling Sebastian or my friends. I can\'t let them go risking their lives looking for me." She explained earnestly, hoping to convince Snow into following her. "Can\'t you just come with me, Snow? My friends... They are all good people. They would never hurt you."

When Snow still did not make any movements to go with her, Elle chewed on her lower lip. "Alright, if you don\'t want to come with me, wait for me here, okay? I\'ll definitely return here to look for you. Can you wait for me until then?"

After saying that, Elle slowly turned around. She looked back at him over her shoulder once more and then she started to run back to that small house.

She had already moved quite far off from it, so she ran as fast as she could.

When she knew she was finally close, Elle belatedly realized she was not feeling the tiredness she had been expecting. It was of course a normal response from her body after running so fast like this. So why...

The surprise that gripped her made her feel both amazed and utterly shocked at the same time. How cool was this?! Was this really happening?! She was not tired at all? Was it because she was invisible right now?

She could not help the smile that was tugging at the corner of her lips. It was just simply unbelievable... all these discoveries. And it seems, she could no longer stop herself from enjoying the thrill of this completely new and magical world she had somehow come across into.

No longer feeling any fear and worry, Elle finally let herself revel in the feeling of being someone that would be considered as supernatural. And she found herself feeling so amazing and free that it was insane!

Her eyes were gleaming with bliss as she continued running. Part of her was also excited to show Sebastian all of these new and improved sides of her that he had yet to know of. She already felt like he was here. Her gut had told her too.

And she was getting closer, the feel of that familiar dark and heavy presence she was approaching solidified her suspicion that Sebastian was indeed here.

Feeling mischievous, Elle decided to surprise the man for a change. Usually, it is always him who was giving her the surprises. Despite her longing to go and throw herself into his arms, she held back and slowed down to hide her presence.

She had wondered many times how Sebastian would react if he found out about her ability. Or could it be that he had known something was up already?

A surge of that dark and heavy aura pulled Elle from her thoughts. She hastened, unable to keep herself stalling any longer. This strange and mysterious darkness Sebastian was exuding just would not cease from pulling at her, like a magnet.

"It\'s not like Izabelle\'s heart belongs to her, either. That heart isn\'t hers in the first place and I know all of you know that as well!"

These sharp, deadly words were what welcomed Elle the moment she rushed in with anticipatory excitement. However, after hearing that, she stood there frozen as her smile slowly faded.

"Izabelle borrowed that heart too and she\'d been living because of it for many years... it\'s about time, isn\'t it? That she should give it back to where it belongs â€""

"Shut the f**k up!" Sebastian growled and Elle dragged her gaze from Zeres to her lover\'s form. He was finally here. Her man. But... just what was... going on?

Zeres chuckled, causing Elle to look at the miserably beautiful man holding the unconscious Iryz in his arms. "I wonder how Izabelle would react if she learns about the truth â€" that the real reason you took interest in her in the first place was because of the heart that is within her â€""

Elle heard Sebastian roar. But Elle could barely understand the words he had said because her mind had suddenly started replaying that night she first met Sebastian in that room. The image of him staring, touching the place over her heart filled her mind. And then she remembered all the strange and incredibly painful episodes she had gone through not too long ago that had started with extreme chest pains.

"That heart belonged to your late girlfriend from a long time ago and that\'s why you cannot let another woman who\'s not yours to have it! That heart is supposed to be for Iryz!!! Kiel, your brother stole it from Calliste after killing her!"

\'L-late girlfriend? Kiel? C-calliste? Who... are they?" Elle could only ask within her mind as her world seemed to start turning dark again. Deep inside her, she wished she had not returned. That she had continued on, following after Snow to where he wanted to lead her. She wished everything she had just heard was just a joke, that it was just another bad dream.

"I... Iza?" Sebastian\'s voice suddenly echoed.

Dearest Readers,

Thank you for your patience. And happy valentines day guys. Sorry i can\'t give a lovey dovey chapter for today. ;(  and sorry but the Zeke and Alicia valentines special i promised before will be postponed. I am hoping for your continues understanding.

And i just want to thank you guys again for all the encouraging messages you left me in the previous chapter. I really really appreciate your supports. I used to really fear getting abandoned by my readers so even when i\'m sick and tired af, I force myself to write. I still fear it now not gonna lie. But I finally accepted the fact that there\'s really nothing more important than putting my health first.

I still have so many stories I want to tell so I want to go easy on myself and slow down a bit more to fully recover. It\'s been 4 years of nonstop writing since I started writing so I think my body is really demanding for a bit more longer rest. So right now, i can\'t promise a daily update yet guys.

Thank you once again and hoping for your continues patience.

Love, Kazzen
