Hanna had stopped her car at the red signal. Her thoughts ran wild because of the conversation with Amaya.
’What does Anna have to do with this?’
’Does she even know about Midnighters?’
Finally, a sigh left her lips as she said while collapsing in her seat.
"Hah... I’ll have to ask her if I want answers to my questions."
*Bzz*
Just then, her phone vibrated, leaving a sound that seed to be a notification.
"Hmm?" Hanna raised an eyebrow as she took out her phone and read the ssage.
"Class party in three days? All students’ attendance is compulsory..." Hanna read out loud.
She closed her phone and put it back as she once again fell into thought.
’Maybe I should ask Anna about it on the party day.’ Hanna decided and started to drive towards her apartnt as the lights turned green.
Hanna soon reached her apartnt and collapsed in her bed as the sleep had finally caught up to her.

Anna lay asleep on her bed. She wore a set of baby pink pyjamas, and Veylor slept beside her. Her eyelids trembled as she slowly sat up and started to rub her eyes, trying to wake up.
Anna jumped out of her bed as she yawned and stretched her body. She walked towards the washroom and opened its door, and as she did so, the luxurious washroom ca into view. It had a dark blue mat with silver engravings placed on the floor, a sky-blue marble washbasin with carvings of flowers was placed at the centre of the wall. A half-body mirror with a wooden boundary having floral carving was above the basin. A small golden chandelier was hung up on the ceiling.
Anna walked towards the washbasin and grabbed the copper faucet, and spun it as she cupped her hands and started to wash her face with water.
After a few monts, she gathered all of her hair from the middle and tied it in a bun. After that, she called out.
"Vey!"
Veylor, still sleepy, walked towards her with slow steps while Yawning.
"Good morning, Vey." Anna greeted him as she bent down and picked him up in her arms.
"Myu..." Veylor replied with a lick on her cheek.
"Hehe!" A chuckle left Anna’s lips due to the tickling sensation from that.
Anna walked forward and started to wash Veylor’s face with water, too. After that, she brushed Veylor’s teeth, then hers.
Ti passed as Anna freshened up for the day. She walked towards her bed as she rubbed the head of Veylor with her right hand.
She sat on her bed, and a few monts later her phone started to vibrate as it rang with the sound of a notification.
Anna didn’t react as she took out her phone and read the ssage.
She raised an eyebrow as she read out loud.
"A class party, huh..."
Anna’s eyes glead with excitent as a small smile spread across her lips. Anna was about to put down her phone when it rang one more ti.
She checked it one more ti, and a puzzled look appeared on her face as she did so.
"Hanna?"

Within a dimly illuminated room, its environnt was filled with mystery and ominous vibes. A round table with four chairs was placed at the centre, and the dim runes engraved on the walls illuminated the place.
Four figures sat at the round table, three of whom had masks on.
The three figures turned towards the fourth one, a dark blond man with a dark wheat-like moustache and a build like a heavyweight fighter, who sat there.
Edwin Turner looked back at the three figures, his eyes held both reverence and fear for the beings who sat in front of him.
After all, they could kill him with a simple flick of theirs.
"Lord Edwin."
One of the figures with grey eyes called out to him with a soft voice, nearly enchanting.
"Lord Hars." Edwin greeted him as he perford a heavy nod.
"Haha! You don’t have to be so stiff." The high priest or Hars said with a teasing tone.
Edwin smiled wryly at the three figures without saying anything.
"It’s about ti," Hars spoke once again, his tone serious.
Hearing that, Edwin’s smile faded as he looked at Hars with a solemn look on his face.
"I am ready for it." He said as he looked at the three masked figures with determination.
Hars nodded his head and said.
"You should leave."
Hearing that, Edwin nodded as he stood up and left the room without saying anything else.
"Is it wise to have soone like him know this much about the plan?" The masked figure with brown eyes questioned as he looked at Hars.
"You think too much of it, Zelron." The masked figure with green eyes spoke as she looked at Zelron. Her voice was feminine but weighty.
Hearing that, Zelron turned towards the masked woman and said with a voice full of teasing.
"Well, you are the main piece after all," Zelron said as his eyes glead with excitent.
The masked woman grinned widely after she heard that. Hars looked at both of them with serious eyes as he spoke.
"We have to make sure nothing goes wrong."
Hearing that, both of them turned towards Hars and nodded.
"Any ssage from the main palace?" Hars asked as he looked at Zelron.
Zelron looked at Hars with a solemn look and shook his head as he spoke.
"No..."
"What about the protector of Anieal Starborne?"
"I am still finding him." This ti, the masked woman was the one to answer his question.
"So, we know nothing about the protector?" Hars questioned, his tone solemn and laced with a bit of disappointnt.
Hearing that, the masked woman lowered her head.
"Even I did not find any Midnighter near her," Zelron spoke instead of the masked woman.
Hars turned around and looked at him for a few monts, after which he closed his eyes and fell back on his chair, deep in thought.
’How can that be? I am pretty sure that a Midnighter is helping her...’
