Chapter 16
*****
After Ernaline bids goodbye to her friends, her older brother called her to go to their library. He didn't tell her that they had something important to talk about?
Maybe he needs to talk to her about her work as well. It's a pity, especially since she already loves the band.
Speaking of the band, Kyle never gets tired to buy her flowers. She also did not say anything an assurance. She also didn't know how to say it. Her older brother knows about it and he warned Kyle about something that hasn't been informed to her yet. Talking about guy thing?
The girl knocked three times in a row before opening the library door. The bulk of her older brother and a man she did not know startled her.
"Come in baby," Reiden said as he saw her at the front door.
Ernaline immediately closed the door before she approached her brother’s table. Ernaline sat in a single chair in front of the table while her older brother sat in the swivel chair. The man was just standing near her older brother. He didn't bother to sit down. This library is their father's office and sometimes they talk to him in-depth. So she no longer wondered why her older brother was sending her here.
"What is it?" She asked after sitting in the chair.
"We've already talked about your bodyguard right?" he said.
The girl smiled at what her older brother said. "Do I need that?"
"Yes. And you will meet him right now," his older brother's eyes turned to the man next to him. Ernaline knot her forehead as she took the guy who was standing next to her brother.
"This guy will be your bodyguard. Every action or thing you do he will inform me immediately. He will be with you all the time even when you have a band performance. I let you do the works but he will guard you 24/ 7," Ernaline could not speak and could only open her mouth because of surprise

Perth reverted his gaze when Grei said that he will the bodyguard of this young lady. Grei didn’t mention him about him that’s why he was surprised too.
He did nothing but ride what Grei wanted.
"Perth Fynrell, at your service," He said.
"I'll give you my permission to continue with your dreams. But please baby, be aware of your surroundings. I don't want that to happen again okay?" Grei's sister slowly turned to her brother before nodding in response.
"Perth will accompany you wherever you go. If those guys complain about it, just let them be. That's all I want to say, I got to go, baby, I have a business meeting to attend to," they did nothing when Grei went up from his sea without explaining to him the details on why he needs to be the bodyguard of his little sister?
"We meet again," Perth's said to the girl after Grei leaves them at the library.
"What do you mean we meet again? I just met you. Do you have a head injury, bump head or something?" The girl asked him in surprise, which made him smile secretly.
"Maybe you didn't recognize me but we meet somewhere," he added.
"Where?" She asks quickly.
"Secret," He said with a smirk on his face. He didn’t expect this Grei’s sister is such a beauty though he saw her for the first time face to face.
"It's so nice to talk to you, I’m leaving," the girl hurriedly left the library and didn't look back at him. A grin from his face before fishing out his phone from his pocket and started dialing Grei’s number.
Even before the man on the other line could speak, he had already preceded it.
"What the hell is this guard-thingy Grei? I thought you want to talk some business matters?" He spoke irritably to the phone while staying inside the library here in the Montenegro house.
"My sister is my business Fynrell, do your job," Dezrail didn't even utter a word when Grei dropped the call.
He was expecting some business matters but it looks like Grei has knocked him down.

When Ernaline came out of the library, she was able to breathe properly. She will admit that the man had a different effect on her, especially when she saw his smile earlier. Meaning this is the first time she felt something inside of her and she didn't understand what kind of feeling is that.
He dismissed in his mind whatever was troubling it. Instead, he continued until he entered his room and went to the study table where the notebook in which he was writing the song was.
He sat down in the chair and faced his notebook. She grabs a pen to start writing but a silhouette enters her memory. After hearing Perth's voice, some unfamiliar scene flashes on her memory. It was blurry and he couldn't understand what Perth's connection was there. None of his own laid down the ballpen that hadn't been applied to the paper but it reached for his guitar then started strumming it.
A masterpiece came out through her mouth after she strums the guitar. A smile carved on her lips then grabs the pen again to write the formed lyrics. She decided to write it and put a title named Silhouette because of the mystery guy who saves her.
He soaked in the room all day just to finish the song he made. They have just released a new song but here he is again and will show something again. Maybe there's nothing wrong with spoiling Blackhand fans, right?
He was currently sitting in the living room while Perth was walking around in front of him. He just pulled him over after they ate. He didn’t know that this was also where it was going, ‘that’s what his older brother wanted. Unbelievable, right?
Oh well, he's her bodyguard so he might just do his job for not disobeying her brother's command. It is not he who pays for it but his brother.
"What do you need? Can you stop walking in front of me because you're not on the cut walk to feel model there," Perth stopped in the middle of the living room at what the girl said. He calls it Perth because that's what his older brother calls it and it's still his name.
"I'm not," it said.
He was just overwhelmed with emptiness. "If you don't have anything important to say, I might leave you here because I'll fix the equipment,"
Later, he will go to the condo with the four idiots. Saviel will also pick her up later. She would have gotten up from the sofa she was sitting on but Perth wouldn't allow her to leave so she sat down again.
"I just want to tell you some of my conditions," he said quickly. Which annoyed the girl.
"Wow. Are you going to ask me? You're different too," he said.
"It's for both of us," the man said stiffly.
Why not just directly said it, right?
"Spill," She said with a bored voice.
"First, you must not tell anyone about my existence," it began. He frowned in astonishment but did not speak.
"Second, I'll be living on a condo where you live but in a separate room,"
"Third, I'll accompany you wherever you go but I'll watch you from afar."
"Okay?"
"And lastly," Perth looked straight into her eyes before speaking again. She felt something uneasiness behind those eyes of his. "Lastly, whatever you'll witness or find out about me. Just let it go and live your life normally."
He was blown away. ‘That was the only condition of it, he would have just written it so that he could understand it better. He got up and walked up the stairs but before he could step on his feet Perth spoke again.
"And one more thing, please don't fall for me,"
The girl seemed to stiffen in her stance. He also felt his chest tighten and could not breathe properly. How can he say that when they were just met? And he's just a bodyguard who's doing a job to protect her at all cost? But her damn heart against what her mind says.
"IT'S NICE to be back" Saviel exclaimed as they arrived inside the condo. He was asked to go straight to their room while the woman dived on the sofa.
"Do you feel like you own this house? You're just excess baggage!" I heard Jasper shout that he thought Sav was the one telling it. The girl dropped the suitcase on the side of the bed before coming out again. She found Kaizen, Kyle, and Jasper in the living room chasing Sav. He also couldn't see where Senri was.
"I didn't say it was my house, Timothy!" Sav shouted back.
"Don't call me Timothy," Jasper said sarcastically.
"Tse!" Ernaline just laughed at the noise of them. It's nice to be back and he also missed their noise throughout the condo.
"Are you hungry, Queen?" Kyle yelled at him. His face turned red. Kyle is her suitor but it hasn't even changed her treatment of him. It's also pretty sweet and she finds it creepy.
"Nah, I'm fine. It's still early," he replied shyly to the young man.
She feels awkward.
"Me, Kyle won't you ask? I'm hungry, maybe you can cook my goddess?" Saviel interrupted their conversation causing Kyle's white face to frown.
"Cook your food. I'm not your servant," Espasol said sarcastically and the girl laughed.
The woman sighed exaggeratedly as if the man's answer to her was unacceptable. "Hey, Kyle Lee Yoo in short walking Espasol. I admit that I used to be a fan of yours but if you show me that attitude I might move to Last Minute. Their fandom is more acceptable than you Blackhand feeling wives "You four are barren!"
He was shocked by what he said. It seems that in a flash, the three men in front of them changed their persona because of what Sav said.
"Mention any other names but not those bastards" Kaizen's voice showed anger but the woman was not shaken by the ferocity of the three. Instead, it unfolded.
"Sterile!"
