Chapter 15- Isabella (Kashu)

"This is not good..." I heard Zelman-sama's worried voice behind me.

"Why?" Aya and I asked.

Before we were answered, the sun's rays touched my skin, as well as Aya's, and we began to burn. We both screamed in pain as our skin slowly became ash.

"What the hell is going on?" Zero hissed as he tried to block the sun's rays from hitting us.

"The princesses have a horrid curse placed on them: When they return to Our Realm, they have five weeks (five sunrises in original edit) to fall in love. If they didn't, the sun would surly see to their death. I forgot to tell them the curse and now we are almost too late." Zelman-sama explained with guilt.

"You idiot." Kaname-sama growled.

Zelman-sama kneeled next to Aya and took her into his arms. He whispered something in her ear and her skin stopped turning to ash. I looked at them blankly as her face lit up brightly.

Zero kneeled down to me and looked into my eyes. He whispered, "I love you," and my skin stopped turning to ash. I heard hurt and lies through Zero's voice. He couldn't love me, but the statement stopped me from dying. I saw Zelman-sama glare evilly at Zero and I couldn't feel any more confused.
