CHAPTER 106

"OZZY!!!" I called her again and she didn't stop. She sure had quite an attitude.

"Elly...let her go....Aaron is right. We'll find some other way...." Adam held my hand but I insisted.

"There's no other way. This is the only way...." I replied, running after the two girls.

They had walked out of the cafeteria and taken a turn on to the elevator, possibly leaving the campus.

Having approached them, I grabbed hold of Ozzy's hand but she snatched it away from me as though I was infected with a highly infectious disease.

"Watch it Eleanor DelaRue...I will sue you for harassment...." she hissed at me and I smiled, standing in the way of the elevator.

"What...do you want? why does everyone want to know about Angela???" the brunette finally spoke after I thought she was mute.

"Yeah...what do you want??" Ozzy repeated. Her face resembling a demon and anger spreading all over her face like cold water from hell. Was she a ghoul?

Without wasting even a minute, I took out my phone and showed the picture to them.

As expected, they gave faces as though they'd seen an invisible evil. The brunette, covered her mouth as tears raced down her tears. Her eyes quickly turned blood shot red and she went down to her knees losing her balance and unable to steady herself.

Ozzy on the other hand seemed even more terrified. She stood still with her eyes still on my screen wondering and questioning such a dreaded reality. Was it true or false?

"A.. Angy??" she managed to say and slowly raised her hands to grab my phone.

I slowly let her have it and watched as she wept over her dead friend.

She hugged my phone and cried bitterly, standing next to me.

I smiled knowing that finally, I'd unleashed the fires beneath the sea.

Then, in a moment, like a possessed girl, she slowly turned her head to face me.

Her facial expression changed and I think her eyes turned red. Was she a vampire?? A growling sound emerged from her and I backed away knowing what was good for me.

"I will kill you for this!!!" her rattling voice caught me off guard and I staggered, falling against the hard wall behind me.

I was engulfed with pain and fright, looking at her like this. Where was Adam?

I looked around and there was no one who I could scream to and talk to.

I turned back to Ozzy and he was an inch away from strangling me, making me shiver in fright. She was certainly going to kill me.

She lifted her hands to grab my neck and I closed my eyes awaiting the terror that was to befall me.

"How could you kill her???" she asked instead, her hands falling on my shoulders.

"I didn't..." I denied. "Someone dropped her body in my bathtub when I went on a vacation with my boyfriend in Peru...."

"W-what???" she asked in disbelief.

"But Angela had Thanatophobia.....she would never be close to anything or anyone that frightened her and made her think or even talk of death. She was too careful to even say she was kidnapped..." The brunette spoke up and I looked at her.

"The world is much stranger and has much older inhabitants with terrible secrets than we would ever imagine...." Adam interrupted and I quickly ran over to give him a hug.

"Am right here...." he whispered and I felt secure.

"This is what I've been trying to talk to you about....." Aaron jumped in. "About a month ago this incident happened in Peru. Someone out there used this picture to scare Eleanor into breaking up with her boyfriend or she would be next...."

"Oh my Goodness ..." Ozzy shrieked and quickly closed her lips.

"It's true....." Adam added.

"And not only this photo....but many other things were sent to her in an attempt to end her life if she persists into sticking with Adam...." Aaron explained.

"But ....how does Angela's dead body come in,in all this???" the brunette asked and I nodded.

"That's why I want to have a chat with you guys so that we can get to the bottom of this matter....." I explained and for once they gave me sympathetic looks.

"Why haven't you told the police about this???" Ozzy asked.

"You do trust them quiet a lot, don't you??" I asked.

"Why shouldn't I?" she asked defensively and I chuckled.

"No one but yourself is the only person you should trust...." I replied and thinking of it the next minute, I wondered what Adam might have thought about it. I sure trusted him yes but he knew that deep down, I trusted myself way better.

"Now....if you'd like....I'd love you to come with me and we can talk about this somewhere more private....." Aaron requested and they both nodded, not forgetting to curl into each other's arms.

I could understand their pain.

Losing someone you love will always leave a void in the heart that nothing can fill. It was always worst than the scar that never heals and was sure to cause even much more pain than a fresh wound.

"Don't worry Elly... we'll finally get the answers we need...." Adam smiled at me and I smiled back.

We all followed Aaron as he led us to the car. Since we had two more people, I suggested the girls go with Aaron to my apartment and I would follow them there.

I couldn't even remember when last I was in my apartment. That place was beginning to feel like a haunted house with an entity living in it with me. Living at Lauren's for the past few days was a good breath of fresh air and I liked that she had a home no matter how small.

I took out my phone about to call Lauren when I already found an incoming call from Gemini. Why was he calling me? Did Natalia do something?

I quickly slid to answer

"To the most expensive girl on the planet...." he began and I found myself smiling. I missed his voice.

"How are you??" he asked and I couldn't believe it. Did he really cared about how I was or he was just trying to ease the mood before telling me whatever he wanted to. Before I could reply, another voice echoed in the background.

"Aarrggg! Enough with that....Give me the phone... Hey missy....have you forgotten you're signed to an agency???" do I even need to tell you who it is?

"Oh....isn't the three months over yet???" I asked in a rather sarcastic tone.

"No baby no. But it will in the next seven days....." she highlighted it for me and I rolled my eyes. Am sure she had the devil grin on her face and an eerie look in her eyes. Just the dirty Natalia that she was: worst than a black widow.

"Good. I'll talk to you in seven days then ....." I was about to hang up when she said something that caught my attention.

"Eleanor don't hang up on me! Am sorry....."
