Olivia POV
"Dad, what I am saying is Ava and her family are Vampires. But they aren't the reasons behind the killings." I said sipping my hot coffee. "But, Liv you said-"
"I know what I said Dad, and it was my fault, they don't kill people. I have heard Ava mentioning when she was in front of the Vampire saving the girl at the club, saying they don't kill people and they drink blood from only those who gives them consent. Meaning there are people who knows about them and are supplying blood willingly."
"Liv, how is that even possible." Dad questioned. "But it is dad, she could have killed you right away and she could have killed us but she din't."
"Liv maybe becauseâ" I cut him off "Dad, she knew I was a hunter." I said deadpanned.
"What" I heard mom gasped and Liam exclaimed not believing what I said.
"When she leaned in my ear, and you thought she was going to bite me, she din't, she told me she knew I was a hunter but still she spent time with me because she had genuine feelings for me. She loves me dad" She loved me. Not loves. My mind thought but I ignored it.
"Liv, do you have feelings for her." he asked staring at me.
"Dad, I--" I stuttered.
"Liv do you have feelings for her?" he questioned again sternly. I nodded my head and heard him sigh.
"But that, it wasn't before, because all I thought about was I have to kill her so I had to gain her trust, but now remembering every moment we spent I have started to realize it that I like her." I said getting emotional, tears filling up my eye's blurring my vision.
I heard him standing up. "IâI don't know what to say Olivia. I need some time." and he left. The one thing that hurt me the most was he din't call me Liv. He called me Olivia.
I nodded my head understanding he might need some time. I bought my hands and covered my face trying not to cry. I felt a hand on my shoulder, I looked up to see Mom.
"Everything will be okay honey, he just needs some time." I nodded my head and she went were dad went.
I could feel Liam staring at me. "I can feel you stare, you can whatever you want to it's a free world"
"No, I mean when did you start liking her." he asked. I shrugged whipping my tears and looked at him. "I don't know, I just realized it when, I stopped receiving her good morning texts or when I could't hear her rambling when she's around me, or when I can't see her smile." I said remembering the times we have spent and when I wasn't thinking anything about killing her and being myself even if it was just for second's. But now it's not. I won't act.
"You sound like you are whipped." he said and I sent a glare towards him. "But I wonder, now that you said it every woman who does this, falls for people who used to give attention but when they don't then the girl likes them back. I mean that's what you did now right."
I felt angry hearing him say this but he is kinda true.
"Not all girl's tho" I muttered. "So it means that your so called fake Vampire girlfriend is not so fake now."
"She is not my girlfriend, yet" I said.
"What will you do now"he questioned.
"I have to try harder and apolozieâ" "No no I mean yes you do that, I meant now how do we find the Vampires who are the one's killing." I felt a bit of brush creeping up my cheek.
"Ohh yes, I am pretty sure that Ava's family are looking into it now that Emma is dead too, and Ava loved her as if she was her mother. So now her parents would be finding the Vampire's." He just hummed.
"Turn's out dad need's glasses after all thinking he shot an arrow at Ava's dad but he is still alive." he said smiling widely. I let out a chuckle hearing him say that.
"Hey, even you need one, because you agreed with me shooting an arrow aiming for the heart but I din't so you need one too." I heard dad say, I turned around and looked at him he was smiling.
"So I guess we should team up with them now shouldn't we." he said smiling back at me.
I ran and hugged him tightly. "All of us should apologize to them to" he said. I pulled back and me and Liam nodded our heads.
"Ohh my god this is totally enemies turned into lover's shit going on now." he said making everyone laugh.
I walked in kitchen with mom behind me. "How did you do it" I questioned her. "I just explained him, it's not your fault who you like or don't and that we are the wrong one's here not Ava and her family. He understood and then done."she said smiling cheekily.
"Thank you Mom" I said happily that my family is okay with it. "Liv, you like her right." she questioned. I will make sure this won't be the last time I say this and will never get tired of it.
"Yess Mom".
Ava POV
"Ava, are you okay." I heard Theo questioned which I ignored it for the 5th time. "Whatt" I screamed at him making him flinch and Mom and Dad enter my room within seconds. "What happen?" they questioned together, I shook my head standing up and grabbing my coat. "I am going out." I announced leaving my bedroom.
"Ava, I understand, Emma's death has been very hard on you." Theo said stopping me from leaving
"Do you though, Liam" I scoffed at him. "Ava, we all are here for you, you don't need to push us out."said mom, I sighed walking out of the room, it's been one week to Emma's death but I couldn't find any traces of the Rouge Vampires. I had visited Ben twice to make sure he is okay, he kept on asking when will she come back, I had to make an excuse to tell him Emma will never come back now and he cried a lot.
"I am in no mood to talk to anyone, don't wait up for me. I don't know when I will be back." I said and ran out the house in to the woods. Stopping at the lake. I closed my eye's taking a deep breath in and then out. I looked ahead and let out a scream loud scream. Letting all my pain out. Letting it echo in the forest, my scream too loud for the bird's to fly away from trees. So loud I could hear it scream back at me for me to listen the pain in my scream.
First Mom and Dad, and then Olivia and now Emma. I just cannot handle this pain, letting my emotions out, I screamed again to no one except the forest. "Why me, why is it happening to me" Feeling weak in my knees, I fell on the ground crying miserably. Closing my eyes, trying to control my breathing.

"Ava Campbell did you eat the cookies from the kitchen." She screamed. I ran downstair's with a puppy face. "No mommy" I said sweetly. She walked towards me and rubbed her thumb on the corner of my lips. "Honey, so the cookie crumbs magically appeared on the corner of you lips." I quickly wiped my mouth looking down on my palm to see some of the crumbs left.
"Ava, no cookies for you tonight." he said sternly
"But mommyâ" "That's a harsh punishment on our daughter ins't it." Dad said entering the home. "Daddy" I screamed running towards him.
"My princess" he said picking me up and kissing my cheek.
"Because of you our daughter might have to take diabetes medication in future." Mom said pointing her spatula at Dad with red velvet batter on it.
"Ohh come, honey a little cookie won't hurt now, will it princess." he said looking at me.
"No" I said smiling widely. He entered the kitchen and picked up the red velvet cookie but mom stopped him. "David Campbell, put the damm cookie down and get up stairs and get ready for dinner." Mom said glaring at the both of us, I chuckled at her scolding dad like he is a school boy.
"Allison Campbell, I want to have one cookie." he shot back.
"For that darling, you and your princess go upstairs and get freshen up and then come downstairs for dinner and then for dessert you will get the cookies." she said and turned around to continue her cooking.
I looked at daddy with pouty lips, he put me down and placed his finger on his lips indicating me to stay quiet and nodded my head. He sneakily uncovered the foil wrapper on the cookies and grabbed two of them.
Not able to contain my happiness, I screamed "yayyy" which made Mom turn around to see cookies in his hands, daddy smiled face turned in to frown looking at Moms stern face, he quickly picked me up and ran upstairs.
"David Campbell, you and your princess are in so much trouble." she screamed back at us, but I was only focussed on finishing the cookie in my hand.
I smiled remembering the bit's of the memories I had with my parents.
..........
I flinched a bit when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked back to look at the person.
All the happiness I had a moment ago vanished away looking at her.
