Part Two, Chapter Seventeen
Last Updated:
2021-07-04 13:33:52Jean Luc thought he was hallucinating when he first gazed into the dark brown eyes he never forgot. The eyes of the murderer he had loved.
Then, when she spoke in that too-familiar voice again, he felt his world crumbling down. He knew that was how he should have felt--like all his nightmares had compiled into one. He was ashamed to have felt something relight in him. Like an empty void filling itself at the mere sight of a demon.
He had seen her for about half an hour. The pain of betrayal was still there, as were the memories from three years ago. It seemed like just yesterday when she left.
Yet, things have changed.
Not in his life, not really. He received plenty of opportunities to improve his life, and he took them all despite knowing most of them came from Raven. He had been working closer and closer to granting his biggest wish of a life away from Domsville.
But of course, Raven had to show up now when everything was going okay. After he had

Jean Luc's heart was caught in his throat as he beheld the sight."Hi, darling," Raven laughed. It was a sound that made his heart speed. The smile she had on her face, the newer one with the gentleness. Suddenly, Jean Luc knew who it was for. "Are you giving your uncle a hard time?"The child still had that grin as he attempted to climb onto Raven's lap. Wild and ferocious, just like his mother. Jean Luc felt like he had stopped breathing."Yes, he did," Zak complained. "Didn't you?"The child nodded enthusiastically, and the table exploded into laughter. Jean Luc met Raven's eyes and realised she had been looking at him. He knew then. He knew who exactly was the father of that child.Raven ruffled the hair of the kid, then whispered something that made the child nod and sprint away with Zak behind him.Jean Luc shot up from his stool without thought. His mind was racing as he stalked towards Raven and grabbed her wrist. It still kills him

When Raven discovered that she might be bearing a child three years ago, theSoardinawas not yet developed in the slightest. She had told Celie first, then they had to travel to the island closest to them,Midaz, to get the confirmation."I can't believe we're doing this," Raven had muttered bitterly. "We're wasting time inMidazwhile the others are probably messing up the land.""We can't just treat it like it's impossible. I mean, you and that guydidhave sex and both of you were probably so horny that," Celie gestured around the clinic they were in, "this happened.""No shit sherlock," Raven replied with a straight face.Then she discovered Celie was right, and she did not know how to feel.It was literally the worst time to bear children. And Raven, a wanted murderer, as a mother? That might be the most ridiculous thing on earth.Raven always knew what to do, yet t

Jean Luc still could not believe the fact that Raven had raised his children without his knowledge. His mind was still racing even after he left them because they needed their nap.He needed drinks in his system, and he was thankful for the bar room. Darrow did not accompany him this time, and he was glad to be alone with his many thoughts.However, he was abruptly interrupted by a man."Ay, you mind?" he asked and pointed to the seat beside Jean Luc. The man seemed rather nervous."No, take a seat," Jean Luc replied, then took another sip of his alcohol."Thanks, man." He was definitely nervous. By his soft tone and little stutter, Jean Luc felt as if he had somehow offended him. The reason was very much unknown. "Ah, I can't believe I'm doing this right now.""Doing what?" Jean Luc questioned."Sitting beside you." He thought the man was a tad crazy if he thought sitting beside an ordinary person was surreal."Jean Luc," he i

Jean Luc awoke to the sound of people.Outside the ship, voices erupted and cheered. Jean Luc couldn't make sense of it. He barely had enough sleep with the thoughts constantly racing in his mind.They reached their destination.Soardina. Jean Luc would be lying if he claimed he was not interested in what the city looked like. He could vaguely remember his mother uttering a series of praises for the place, carried down by the opinions of many. It sounded like a beautiful place, but Raven could have simply portrayed it as such.He knew her enough to know such plans could easily be carried out.Exhausted, he managed to get ready for the morning. He took the time to understand what the people outside their ship were screaming.Raven.They were cheering her name with all they got.In a less groggy state, Jean Luc was able to remember that Jay had said, "I think you'll be surprised how many people love and look u

Jean Luc decided that the city was beautiful. Domsville could barely even compare to it."Welcome to the place I hate most," Blake announced, then pointed to a garden. "The bugs here love me, but those assholes usually stay away from the rest of my siblings.""Raven asked for this place, didn't she?" Jean Luc questioned, already knowing the answer."Yes, and she made me plant the flowers with her." He rolled his eyes, then swatted at the air.Jean Luc bit back his smile as he looked at his surroundings and strode towards a relatively large house beside Blake."You'll be staying here for the few days you're here," he said. "Unless you hope to stay longer."The smile was immediately wiped away. "Here?" Jean Luc repeated. The place was where the entire crew lived, and he did not wish to sleep under the same roofs with a group of murderers."With the two little people," Blake replied, then opened the door to the house. Two faces appeared

"How are things going with him?" Margaret raised a curious brow. She did not need to expand on her question for Raven to understand who she meant. "Better than I thought," Raven said with a wide grin. She sat on her bed, surrounded by rolls of bandages for her knife wound from the day before. "He's definitely choosing to stay," Darrow said, leaning against the wall. "How are you so sure?" Zak asked. Celie was in front of him, checking which outfit suited Zak best. "Because Blake practically has that guy wrapped around his finger," Zak said as a matter of fact. "He's not letting Jean Luc leave. Not after he finally finds a partner to start playing that boring game with." That was true. Even as they were in the room, letting Celie dress them up, they could hear the screaming of the two men in the gaming room. Blake had somehow convinced Jean Luc to start playing 'Human Apocalypse' and they've been yelling profanities at each other ever since.

Jean Luc gaped into the wardrobe room. Or more specifically, the woman standing within.She stared into the mirror, which reflected an image of a goddess. A man could only dream of being with her--a different breed. A wicked genius with the face of an angel. She wore an outfit that her sister, Celie, chose. It was insanely beautiful.Jean Luc matched with her, and so did their children."Done staring?" she spoke. As usual, she seemed to feel the weight of his stare.He looked away, flushing slightly."You look delicious" was all she said before brushing past him. Then, she headed towards the door. Something changed between them. Or perhaps, his view of her changed instead.He continued to like a murderer, but his mind did not attack him for doing so. Instead, they were encouraging him with the most beautiful thoughts of a future with her. It was ridiculous.Outside was filled with deafening noise, raging for a festival made for him. I

Raven didn't care that she was naked.Jean Luc, on the other hand, did. He had made her slip into his oversized shirt.Lying beneath the wholly darkened sky peppered with sparkling glitter, Raven felt complete and content. One of her hands was entwined with Jean Luc, while the other gestured to the specks of stars, drawing an image of a face.The night was not silent. In the distance, the celebration of gratitude still raged. Raven had no doubt that citizens of Soardina were dancing and drinking, that children were giggling and fooling around, that Lydia and Sartac were enjoying themselves, too.She knew Darrow was taking his blonde girlfriend on a ride around the island, while Margaret was climbing until she reached a place where she could watch the movements of everybody.
