Capítulo 46: CHAPTER # 46

*Chitter Chatter*

"It's quite lively, isn't it?" I asked.

"Uhuh," Anne replied.

"But...why are we standing here? Don't you think it's a little far?" I asked, looking at the people at least a 100 feet away from us.

"Um...because we don't know anyone and also we don't have partners as well" Ivy replied to which I nodded.

"But don't you think that until we don't interact with people we will never get to know them? Plus the fact that we still need a partner. It's odd to go to a ball without a partner and this is our first ever ball as an adult. The last time I went to a ball was when I was nine and I don't even remember it" I said.

'Adult? Sabrina, only you are an adult. They are not.' I scolded myself. I looked towards the other two only to find them nodding with a serious expression.

'Wait? Do they really consider themselves as adults?' I questioned.

"The partner issue is not a big deal since my brother will be joining the ball as well and he offered to be my partner as well but you both don't have one" Ivy said.

"That's right...Wait? Knox!" I exclaimed.

"Brother?" Anne looked confused.

"Yes, Knox. He will be coming as well. He mentioned in the last letter that he will be attending the orientation ball to welcome us. Anne you can ask him to be your partner" I said and Anne didn't look very pleased at my statement.

"What about you?" Ivy asked.

"Me? I don't need one and if there would be an issue, I'll pick a random dude" I answered.

"No! Sabi is mine! I will be your partner! We don't need anyone else, Right?" Anne exclaimed, clinging onto me.

"She's right! If you don't mind, I will gladly be your partner. If not? I haven't accepted my brother's offer yet. I can ask for him to be your partner" Ivy said excitedly, whereas I laughed awkwardly.

"No! I'll be her partner. You can be next time" Anne said as Ivy sulked.

"But you are always together~" Ivy whined and there they started again.

'What's going on?' I thought as both my arms were held by each one of them and they were swinging me like a bat.

"Dear Freshmen. Your seniors will be making their appearances so please pay your attentions"

An announcement was heard as every eye turned towards the huge gate which was closed at the moment and a few moments later it opened revealing a few figures.

Soon my vision cleared as I got a good look at their faces and that red hair didn't go unnoticed by me.

"Knox!" I exclaimed as I held both Anne and Ivy's hand, dragging them to the front.

As soon as we reached the front, we caught Knox's attention and he smiled fondly, causing a few girls around us to faint.

"Oj My God!!! They are so handsome!!"

"Please marry me!"

"I'll die because of them"

*Squeal*

'Are they okay?...Well, it's not a surprise because they all are quite famous and handsome too at that' I thought.

"Brother!," Ivy exclaimed as she jumped with excitement, catching me off guard. I followed her gaze and found a young attractive man with dark blue hair and silver eyes.

He really was handsome, I shouldn't say this but even more than Knox.

'He reminds me of someone' I thought.

"Ivy? What's your brother's name?" I asked Ivy.

"Huh? Brother? Why? You like him?" she asked with sparkling eyes.

"Uh, Nope. Just curious" I said as her excited face changed into a disappointed one.

'Why do I feel guilty?' I said to myself, looking at a pouty Ivy.

"Roan"

"Huh?" I looked at her confused since I didn't hear her properly.

"His name is Roan. Roan Folls" she said as I nodded.

"Roan Folls...Roan...Folls...ROAN FOLLS!!!" I exclaimed as everyone around me turned towards me. I laughed awkwardly before returning my attention to the straight-faced boy.

'Oh God...Yet another red flag...*sigh*'

Roan Folls, the Grand Duke of the Paizi Empire. Blessed with an angel's face but also with a demon's heart. He was known to be ruthless and for his love for bloodshed.

He had a very cold personality. He was called "The Dark Grim Reaper" because of his brutal murders day after day. He was raised this way...to be a monster.

His mother died after giving birth to him and his father hated him for that and his step-mother also played a great role in abusing him to make him this ruthless.

But after he met Anne he felt his stone heart melting for someone. He fell for her innocence but that soon became an obsession. He wanted her all for himself so he killed everyone he thought was in his way and when he found out his two best friends were also in love with her it didn't take him one second to become their enemy.

He was a heartless person but he had a soft spot for his youngest half-sister, who is blood related to him and is an angel with poor health. Not much was mentioned about her, only this was mentioned that his only precious one, his younger sister, died at the age of fifteen due to an unknown cause, making him the demon that he was.

'So, Ivy was his sister? Why didn't I catch up with her last name? Oh God, am I a magnet that attracts its own doom? If not the main character then you tied me up with his sister, who is extremely adorable that now I can not even cut her off? Why?'

I cursed under my breath as I looked at the devilishly handsome face which had a neutral expression on his face.

'There you go Sabrina. This was exactly the feeling you were talking about…But I still haven't overcome this bad feeling. WHAT ELSE IS LEFT?!'
