Stuck in an Island with Twelve Beautiful Women-Chapter 239 - 241
Grace was sure that telling her doubts about Alex will only make Serena go against her. Without solid proof, it’s not possible because Serena is in his control without a way to break free.
Grace wrestled with her doubts about Alex, her mind spinning with the potential consequences of revealing her suspicions to Serena. She knew that without solid proof, it would be futile to try and convince Serena to see Alex for who he truly was. After all, Serena was under Alex’s control, unable to break free from his influence without a way to resist his manipulations.
With a heavy heart, Grace realized that telling Serena about her doubts could only serve to push her further into Alex’s grasp, driving a wedge between them and potentially endangering Serena even more. Despite her concerns, Grace knew that she needed to tread carefully, biding her time until she could find concrete evidence to expose Alex’s true nature.
In the meantime, Grace resolved to keep a watchful eye on Alex, gathering whatever clues she could to corroborate her suspicions. She knew that uncovering the truth would not be easy, but she was determined to do whatever it took to protect her friend from harm.

As she pondered her next move, Grace couldn’t shake the sense of unease that lingered in the pit of her stomach. With each passing moment, the weight of her secrets grew heavier, but she knew that she needed to stay strong, for Serena’s sake and for the sake of their friendship.
With a silent vow to uncover the truth, Grace steeled herself for the challenges that lay ahead, knowing that the path to redemption would be fraught with peril. But no matter what obstacles she faced, she was determined to see justice served and to ensure that Serena was kept safe from harm, even if it meant confronting the darkness that lurked within their midst.
Grace and Serena made their way inside the ship, their footsteps echoing in the empty corridors as they searched for their friends. As they reached the kitchen, they found it deserted, with no sign of anyone in sight.
Frowning in confusion, Grace closed her eyes and focused her senses, tapping into her vampire powers to enhance her sense of smell. With a deep breath, she let the scents of the ship wash over her, sifting through the myriad of aromas until she detected the familiar scent of her friends.
"They’re in the center hall," Grace announced to Serena, her voice filled with certainty. "Let’s go find them."
Serena nodded in agreement, her expression reflecting a mix of curiosity and anticipation. Together, they made their way through the ship, following Grace’s lead as she guided them towards their destination.
As they approached the center hall, the sound of voices grew louder, signaling their proximity to their friends. With each step, Grace’s senses sharpened, honing in on the distinct scents of their companions.
Finally, they reached the center hall, where they found their friends gathered together, their faces alight with conversation and camaraderie. With a sense of relief, Grace and Serena joined them, grateful to be reunited once again.
As they settled in among their friends, Grace couldn’t help but feel a sense of gratitude for her heightened senses, which had guided them safely to their companions. In that moment, surrounded by the warmth and laughter of their friends, she knew that they were exactly where they were meant to be.
Serena feels something odd and confronts Grace.
Serena: "Hey, Grace, you seem a bit on edge. Is everything okay?"
Grace: *hesitates* "Oh, uh, yeah, everything’s fine. Just...you know, thinking about stuff."
Serena: "Thinking about what? You can tell me."
Grace: *sighs* "Well, it’s just...I’ve been feeling a bit uneasy lately. Like something’s not quite right."
Serena: "Not right? What do you mean?"
Grace: "It’s just...I can’t shake this feeling that maybe Alex isn’t being completely honest with us. Like, I know he’s our leader and all, but sometimes I wonder if he has ulterior motives."
Serena: *furrows her brow* "Really? I mean, Alex has always had our backs. I don’t think he would ever do anything to hurt us."
Grace: "I know, I know. It’s probably just my imagination running wild. Forget I said anything."
Serena: *reassuringly* "No, no, it’s okay. I’m glad you brought it up. We should always be looking out for each other, right?"
Grace: *nods* "Yeah, you’re right. Thanks, Serena. I appreciate it."
Serena: *smiles* "Of course. And hey, if you ever need to talk about anything, I’m here for you, okay?"
Grace: *smiles back* "Thanks, Serena. I’ll keep that in mind."
Later, Grace privately resolves to keep a closer eye on Alex, just to be safe. She started feeling that having a relationship with Alex is the same as cheating on Jude. She started feeling guilty.

Despite their presence among the group, the newcomers still appeared to be acting like a group of people with no intelligence, their movements lacking in purpose or awareness.

Grace’s concern deepened as she observed them, a nagging sense of unease settling in the pit of her stomach. It was clear that something was amiss with the newcomers, but she couldn’t quite put her finger on what it was.
Turning to her companions, Grace exchanged a meaningful glance with Serena, silently conveying her concerns. It was clear that they would need to tread carefully around the newcomers, as their behavior suggested that they might not be as innocent as they appeared.
