Colton's POV
"Ok, back to the secret of yours, I will keep it a secret in one condition?" Melissa smile sheepishly. I look at her anxiously, we both look at each other. I think he felt shy as she turned away.
"What is it?" Allyson and I said in unison. I was very curious about what she wanted.
"Well, let me be your friend, update me on your mission, and tell me about your supernatural things. I love to listen to supernatural things since I was a kid. And my grandmother telling me bedtime stories about that so now it's time to know the truth if what she told me is true, you know." Melissa smiles widely and she stuffs the steak into her mouth. My lycan, Casper is excited about what he hears.
"Oh," Allyson said.
"Oh, are you serious? It's dangerous for you." I said worriedly. But this is our chance to be with our mate. Say yes, you fool. Casper said as he rolled his eyes. She will be in danger, we should bring her to our pack. I said. Our pack is thousands of miles away from here, just reminding you. And if you do that how can we explain? You fool. Make it is slow and smooth. Casper said. I guess my lycan is right. I was excited that sometimes I feel like I didn't think rationally.
"I don't mind. After all, this town is full of mystery nowadays. Missing teenagers like me, unresolved mysteries of murders. So, now I know at least who is the criminal." Melissa said, her chin up. Looking through in my eyes. I have goosebumps. She intimidates me.
Yes, she is right. Our mate is brave. I like her more now! Casper said again. Come on, let us be with a mate, and then if she knows we are mates we can bring her to our pack to be safer. As of now, we can protect her. Come on, bring a mate to us. Say yes. Casper said like peeves in my ear. I rolled my eyes.
"Ok. But in one condition?" I said so. She arches her brow.
"What is it?" She asks.
"You always beside me and keep yourself in a safe place," I say.
"Cool, ok. Now give me your number." She said excitedly. I smile at her and I give mine. She gets Allyson's number, too.
"What's that for?" I ask. Questioning her for getting Allyson's number. My lycan and I are jealous of what she did.
"For back up of course!" She said. Allyson chuckle. I glare at him.

Third Person's POV
Meanwhile, at the castle, the twin wakes up later than noon. They are looking for Colton but they cannot find him so they are looking around the castle to look even for Allyson. They are looking for hours but they can't find the two. The housekeepers that they met doesn't know where the two were gone. Soon it will be evening and they are tired of looking at the two. They sit on the ground to rest.
"Where are we?" Lex said panting.
"I don't know where we are?" Alex said as he glared at the surroundings.
"This castle is so f*****g huge, bro. I don't remember where we coming from or which way out." As lex looks at the three corridors at their front. Then Alex stands and looks at the wall they lean on. He furrows his brows at what he sees. He sighs deeply.
"Hey, take a look at this." Alex touches the shoulder of his brother who is sitting still on the ground. Lex tilted his head to look at his brother and stand. They are amazed, looking at the beautifully intricate designs of vines, flowers, and two howling wolves that face each other at the top of the center., and on the above center is the moon.
"Oh, man what is this?" Lex was amazed at what he saw.
"It looks like a door, and look at the two wolves facing each other howling to the moon," Alex says.
"Yes." And they are looking down to arch vines and flowers that are designed at the door, looking for something familiar. Alex will touch the protruding leaf on the intricate design when they heard a voice.
"Why are you here?" Elliot's voice echoes. The two startled. They turned around.
"Oh, we are looking for Colton and Allyson for hours, and we lost our way," Alex said.
"Yes. This castle is so big! We end up here searching for a way out." Lex explain.
"That is not the way out," Elliot said not smiling and he look indifferently at the two. The two remained quiet and glance at each other.
"You two come with me. This is the way out." As Elliot took the center corridor. They follow him.
"Colton and Allyson are in town city. They will come back anytime now." Elliot continues walking without looking at the back. As his body emits a dangerous aura that the twin senses it and gulp.
"Ah, Elliot. Are you mad at us that we lost our way to that puzzling corridor?" Lex said. Elliot stop and the twin stop walking, both their hearts beat faster.
"Next time you go around, make sure you have an escort. That place is forbidden. It's good the two of you are still alive or else you are dead meat." Elliot said seriously with piercing eyes.
"Oh," they both said in unison.
"From now on, avoid these three puzzle corridors as you called if you know the best for you or if you want to stay alive," Elliot said. Then he turn around again as continued walking their way out.
They make their way out to the entrance hall. When the entrance door opens and the two, Colton and Allyson enter.
"Hey, Colton. Where did you go we are looking for you for hours!" Lex said.
"Oh, we go to headquarters at town city to pass my transfer."
"Oh, why didn't you tell us a while ago so we didn't lose our way to that forbidden corridor," Alex said in frustration.
"What? What forbidden corridors." Colton asks curiously.
"Let us go to the dining hall now to have our dinner." And he looks at the twins with his piercing eyes. The twin gets his message and shuts their mouth.
"What happened?" Allyson asked.
"Nothing," Elliot said indifferently. Allyson sigh deeply. He knows what Elliot means.
"Ok, guys let us go to the dining hall and eat," Allyson said cheerfully to make the mood light.
