Dangerously Yours Till Eternity

Chapter 32 – Hi, It’s Danger Again.



She scrolled up but that was the last one.

Ivy blinked her tears away.

She really felt lucky to have a Father like him, same with her Mother.

They loved her, she knew. Their ways might be different or difficult, respectively, but they did love her.

Just like Elsa did.

She loved her differently but it was still love nevertheless. Elsa never really knew the best way to express love, she didn’t have a lot of people that did the same to her while growing up, because of that, most of time, Elsa’s ways of taking one for the team were always greatly flawed and sometimes, selfish.

She pulled the pillow closer, remembering that her friend was down there fighting for her life.

“Please, survive this.”

She knew that her situation with Chris was still mixed up and in a way he was already initiating that they were together, but she wasn’t going to think about that.

“We have to go to CorDavo together. I bet there are sexy greek gods there too. This time around, we won’t pick the same guy.”

Then she went through her gallery recycle bin, retrieving as many pictures as she could.

She found one of the recent pictures her and Elsa had taken together on one of those many nights she would spend at Ivy’s parents house.

She sent it to her father, with a voice note along with it.

“Busy day at the restaurant. Elsa is here with me, we are communicating and things will be back to normal soon. Can you please tell Aunt Alice that Elsa is back from Kosha, she lost her phone that is why she hadn’t been picking up. Glad about the new possible branch in CorDavo, I think Elsa and I might come visit soon. Mum, if you are listening, I don’t want a husband yet. Give it a break.” She chuckled, then added, “Goodnight… and to that ‘I love you?’, all I have to say is ‘nah’. Mushiness isn’t allowed in here.”

She laughed before ending the recording, which got sent to them automatically.

She pulled off Chris’s jacket so she could only sleep in her nightgown, but in no time, she was pulling it back on again.

Why was she acting so strange?

Hah! Sleep would fix it. She had better get some.

She let of a breath of exhaustion and strange relief as she laid down in bed.

She could hear the blew blowing strongly outside.

It was going to rain.

****

It had been two day and Chris wasn’t back yet.

The Butler had been around a lot and no matter how Ivy tried to shake it off, she couldn’t help but feel that something was really strange about him.

She had also gotten a text from Chris telling her not to leave the house and that although he didn’t know when he would be back, it was safe for her and Elsa to stay there and wait for him.

He had also told her that if she needed to check on Elsa, she had to go with the Butler.

All of these were really strange.

Was the Butler a doctor too? Was he the one taking care of Elsa now since Chris was away?This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

“Tea?”

She jumped in her skin at the voice, even though for two days and a night, she had been faced with this torture.

The Butler always sneaking up on her with a teacup in his hand.

She took the teacup and he immediately placed a blanket over her shoulders.

“It’s cold.”

Feeling the warmness of the tea against her palm and the blanket over her shoulders, she realized that it was indeed cold.

The breeze had been quite on the cold side since the night they arrived, like as if it would rain but it hadn’t up till now.

How long had she been here, lost in her thoughts and staring at the Fountain that reminded her so much of the fountain in front of the Church that she had gotten married to her mystery husband?

She didn’t know.

“Thank you,” she said, looking up at him and rubbing her thumb against the teacup in her hand, but not taking a sip.

It wasn’t because she was scared of being poisoned, come on, she had spent two days here already and she definitely ate and drank water within that time.

What it was, was that unsettling feeling that every single person she had seen in this mansion, (they are like three people, the others must have suddenly disappeared or rushed off to somewhere like Chris and Jett) seem to give her.

Ivy had, by now, had a lot of time to think.

These people were really weird and whatever Chris was into, it was obvious that he was the reason Elsa had gotten kidnapped.

The kidnappers had, after all, specifically mentioned that she should inform him to come and get Elsa. Also all that conversation he had with Jett before they went rushing off, further proved everything.

Once Elsa became stable and Ivy was able to figure out some things as to how this mansion worked, Ivy had a plan to bust them both out of this place.

The earlier that happened, the better for both of them.

She bade her goodnight to the Butler but he followed her up to her room, even waited till she was tucked into bed, before he left.

Weird!

She pretended to be asleep, till she was really asleep.

Suddenly, she woke up. The Butler was no longer in her room.

She must have been asleep for a while.

She checked her phone for the time.

It was barely past midnight.

Damn it!

She got up, snuck out of the room and went downstairs.

She just felt this inexplicable desperate urge to see Elsa.

Surprisingly the door was left slightly open and the Butler was in the room, his shadow casted on the walls as he moved around.

What was he doing to Elsa?

Was this why he ensured that she was asleep before he left.

Suddenly, he stepped away and went to one side of the wall. She couldn’t really see what he was doing, his back was covering it and he had his phone pressed to his ear.

He was talking to someone, but she couldn’t hear what he was saying.

What caught her attention next was the door that slid open suddenly, to a sought of room which the Butler then, stepped into.

Ivy gasped, her breathing fast.

What if these people were actually serial killers, with fetish!

It made no sense, but then nothing was making sense right now!

Or maybe they wanted to use Elsa for scientific experiments, turn her into some sought of lab rat or extract her organs to sell.

Maybe those were the people the Butler had been talking to.

Potential buyers!

Ivy could feel herself shaking with fear.

This wasn’t even a hospital! How could she allow them to have gone this far?!

How could she have been so blind and stupid!

Her heart raced even further when she realized that no one knew her and Elsa actually were.

She could already see her and Elsa making the “Missing” and “Body Found” headlines.

Breathe, Ivy. Breathe.

She tried to calm herself down to think logically and handle the urgent task at hand.

She had to get them out of here.

Now!
