“I said if it’s in my power. It’s not in my power to divorce Claire yet, and I still need to understand why her grandfather wanted me to marry her so fast.”“I can’t stand how she berates you like that. What nerve to call you names and belittle you? Why didn’t you stand up to her and tell her off?”“First, I can’t refute some of the things she said, and I owe her and her family for shielding me all this time. It’s complicated, and let’s leave it like that for now.”Sara nodded to discuss this issue for another time. She didn’t want to put more trouble on Blake. There was an incident before they left when they paid for the meal. People gathered around a man on the floor, convulsing and foaming at the mouth. He was thrashing about like he was dying, with his eyes rolling up his head. A woman was kneeling beside him, wailing that the blowfish had poisoned him.“Sob, sob, he took his last bite, becoming like this. He was poisoned. Please help someone help.” The woman in her late thirties
The three began to run without knowing what to do, but before they could escape, Blake had already incapacitated them with a single move. The three slumped onto the floor out cold. Then the sound of sirens was heard in the distance.After taking Blake’s testimony and everyone involved, the police took the trio away. Blake then went to the manager to introduce himself.“Hello, I’m Blake Elon, CEO of Elon Trust. You handled yourself pretty well in that situation by removing the guests before it got out of hand.”“Mr. Elon, no, it was your calm demeanor throughout the time. My name is Joseph Barker, the manager here.” He said, shaking his hand.“Mr. Barker, I look forward to seeing you tomorrow morning at Elon Trust with the rest of the business managers. I will be taking my leave.” After all, this was one of the businesses under Elon Trust. Blake took Sara’s hand and headed out the door.Sara had witnessed all that took place with aw and pride like she was looking at the actions of her
“Ladies, I’m here to pick up my cousin. She still doesn’t know the general area.” Blake said with a smile as they continued to walk toward the group.As they neared the group, they all had the instinct to flee but to where? They all worked under them, and they could be fired anytime. When the trio arrived in front of the group, Trish had already tried to make herself invisible along with the blond-haired man when they greeted them.“Good evening.” They all said together.Blake went up to Trish, looked her into her eyes, and saw the remorseful woman before him. Even though she had a terrible attitude, he could see that she was still a good person and, with the help of his spirit, determined to give her the worst punishment he could give her. Turning towards Sylvia, he asked her one question.“Sylvia, have you decided on your assistant yet?”“No, not yet. I was going to look through some applicants after tomorrow’s meeting.”“Good, let me introduce you to Miss. Trish Hardy, your new ass
“Why didn’t you tell your sister? I’m sure she would have brought you to someplace else.” Blake continued his chores, cleaning the bathroom of all their womanly items.“She said she couldn’t because it would have taken her away from dropping me back off here and getting back to the office,” Tabitha said, still following Blake around the house.“So, you want me to treat you to a seafood meal? No problem. Is tomorrow too late, or do you and your sister have plans?” Blake asked as he continued into his mother-in-law’s room and began to tidy it up.“She can’t go tomorrow because of this big proposal for the company and will be busy the next two days, so I want you to pick me up, and we can have a day together. Mother does love her snacks.” Tabitha said as she handed him some trash from her mother’s room to discard.“Okay, I’ll pick you up tomorrow morning. I have some business to attend to, then we’ll go to lunch, and the afternoon will be free. Is this okay with you?” Blake then continue
“Tabitha Dalton, what shameful accusations. I don’t know where you get that from, but you are never to repeat those things.” Julie was shocked by her daughter’s confession about Blake that she was very displeased with her.“If Miss. Dalton is so unwilling I’m sure many women would not mind being his woman. Who wouldn’t want to be the wife of a business owner.”“Haha, a business owner, you say, what does he know about running a business? That little business will be bankrupt within a month, and see where he is with Elon Trust then.” Julie didn’t have any confidence in Blake and belittled the accomplishment that he had gained. If he becomes successful, it would be more challenging for her daughter to hold someone better like Steve Anderson.“Mom, let’s drop it.” Claire didn’t want to relive the encounter again and wanted to stop the bickering. “It was a misunderstanding.”Blake hadn’t said one word all this time but now understood his mother-in-law. She still wanted Claire to get someo
“I understand, Dad. The liquidation of Emerson Realty went smoothly, and it should be within a week I’ll return.” Steve swirled his drink in his hand, looking out his apartment window.“It’s a shame what happened to that girl’s family. I heard that she got pregnant for that transient. I’m glad that I taught you to use protection, son. Business is a war, and there are always casualties. I look forward to your return.”The father and son ended their conversation, and Steve continued to look out the window. Although he knew he had to give up on Claire, he was stubborn. She was his, the only one that slipped through his fingers and married another. This irritated him to his core, and he decided to get back what was his in the end. At least he could ruin the reputation of her and her family and then abandon her. A plan was forming in his mind on how to go about it, and a sly smile came on his face.“Claire, you will soon know the man you abandoned for that trash, and I will get your virgin
Blake became aware of his surroundings again and opened his eyes with Tabitha’s blushing face.Taking his hand away from her chest. “Sorry.”“It’s okay. Did you find out anything?” Tabitha asked, concerned.“Everything is okay, but I must ask whether you were a twin at birth?”Tabitha couldn’t hide her surprise and knew of what happened during her birth, but it was a secret that she and her mother held together.When she was a little girl, she confronted her mother about her feelings, that she felt a loss. Her mother said complications during her birth, and her sister was lost. They cried that night together for the loss of her sister’s life.“How, how did you know? Did you peep into my memories?” Tabitha asked, feeling exposed more than if she was nude in front of him.“No, never. I met your sister, and she’s the one who has been helping you adjust to the spirit Qi. She has been visiting you during your dreams.” Blake said, looking at the doubtful woman in front of him.“Not that I d
“Sigh, I know what you are thinking, but I’m married till the third-year contract is finished, and I only have my wife to tend to. We need to focus on you right now. Your powers are fluctuating, and we need to calm it down.” Blake said, holding her hand and feeling her powers throughout her body. “Follow me outside.”Blake then guided her to the double glass doors, opened them, and emerged into the backyard. A wooden privacy fence surrounded the area, and a large oak tree was in the corner of the lot. He made his way to the tree, felt up the bark, and released some of his spirit Qi into the tree. The tree was a hundred years old and was of good stature for cultivating under. It actually was a solid base that he was looking for Sylvia’s training.“Sit under the tree and close your eyes.” Said Blake turning to Sylvia with a smile.Sylvia did as was instructed, and Blake followed. He placed his hand on her chest, and Sylvia couldn’t help but blush from his actions.Blake entered Sylvia’s
The voice then didn’t speak any longer as Yawayer frowned. She didn’t want to personally leave Heaven and deal with the Four Guardians herself, but the actual creator wanted her to go, and she was helpless to follow his commands. It was the same with the God wars and the rebellion in Heaven all those years ago. She regretted her actions, but what was she supposed to do? The creator had a plan involving her pretending to be him and utilizing the Heaven Angels to bring the Power of Faith to this dimension. In the end, she lost her bestie and had all of the women of her race exiled to Hell, a barren dimension, as instructed by the creator. Now, he wanted her to personally go and release the four guardians and cause destruction upon the Mortal realm to bring more Power of Faith to them.Sighing again, she prepared herself and took out a golden-lined jade token. With this token, she could easily descend and not have to pay such a price for her cultivation to degrees. She changed into a mor
“Don’t look at me like that. We are to leave for the Inner World now. Ladies, we will depart first.” Blake Three stated and headed to the Traveling Formation.“What, no kiss goodbye?” Clara asked as she dropped the sound barrier between her, Blake Two, and the rest of the world.“I’ll kiss you if you want.” Blake Two said next to her.“I would never deny a kiss from you,” Clara said, kissing Blake Two thoroughly.Blake Three and Susan Hemingway entered the Traveling Formation, and Blake guided the Formation to take them to the Inner World. To Susan’s surprise, a tunnel of lights arrived, and she looked at it wonderfully.“The Thraveling Formation will bring us to a courtyard of the family I married into. The pressure in the Inner World is greater than in the Small World, and the Spirit Qi is denser. I will create a light barrier around us to help with the sudden pressure and see if you can handle the change in atmosphere.” Blake Three said with concern over Susan’s well-being.“I unde
Blake Two saw the revelation in her eyes as she realized the situation. He had a foreboding feeling and saw it change into a lustful stare.“As I had said, you are married, and my cultivation will cause you harm, so I’m afraid I will have to decline your offer.” Blake Two said, looking at Susan with an apologetic smile.The Goddesses laughed at Blake’s comment, which confused the man.“What’s so funny?” Blake Two asked, confused over their sudden outburst.“It’s not only your cultivation inside of you. Do you realize you may also be the cure for the Vampiere condition?” Clara asked Blake.“Cure? How so?” Blake asked, not knowing where this was leading.Susan Hemingway heard what Clara said and was surprised by her words. There was never a cure for her race’s condition. They only had to bear the thirst and hunger of their condition. Normal treatments had all failed when trying to revert back to humans. Many wanted to, but most wanted to continue having the power that the condition brou
Blake was speechless hearing this from Susan Hemingway. Was she not already married to Reginald? She was also of the vampire race, and his cultivation could harm her condition.“I. I don’t think that would be a wise decision. I’m….” Blake began.“All too willing to become yours.” Came a voice that Blake never would have believed saying such a thing.Claire walked to the couple and smiled at Susan Hemingway.“Who is this enchanting woman, Blake?” Claire asked, looking at Susan.“This is MRS. Hemingway of the Hemingway family.” Blake introduced Claire to Susan and emphasized MRS.“Ah, so you are a….” Claire hesitated in her speech.“Vampire, yes, we feed on blood,” Susan said, seeing the startled woman.“Understood,” Claire said and smiled kindly.“Always the gigolo, are we not?” a voice came from behind Claire.Blake looked, and to his surprise, an elderly woman coming from behind her. His surprise was warranted since he had never allowed such a person to enter the Small World. Blake l
“Sorry, but it seemed important. Is everyone okay?” Blake asked, looking at the area where Tabitha had come to call upon him.“Yes, they are in the living room waiting for my return,” Tabitha replied.“Okay, I will take it from here. Don’t worry.” Blake said, hugging her to comfort her fears.“Thank you for coming,” Tabitha said and held onto Blake for a while as her motions became calmer.Blake then let her go, and they proceeded to the living room, where the couple were waiting for Tabitha’s return.They were surprised when they saw Blake’s arrival, as they assumed he was away on business.“You arrived,” Susan Hemingway said with surprise.“Yes, with Tabitha saying that your family was here, I came quickly. What seems to be the trouble? I will help as much as I can.” Blake said he had a good impression of this family and didn’t want more trouble in the future because of their race.“This is the situation. My family is on the brink of extinction.” Reginald quickly stated.“How is tha
Sir. Aldridge then left the room and made a phone call. A man in red robes was drinking a glass of bourbon and sitting next to the fireplace with a nice fire crackling when the phone rang beside him.“Yes.” The red cardinal replied.“Your eminence, the ones known as Azrael, Chamuel, and Ezekiel, have disappeared after the destruction of the holy temple. They left with Blake and have not returned as planned.” Sir. Aldridge replied over the phone.There was silence on the cardinal’s end as the news was shocking and startling. Then, a respiring voice was heard on the other end.“What of the Hemingway family?” The cardinal inquired.“We have been only monitoring them, and they have not caused any trouble since they had last met with Blake Elon. It seems they keep in the shadows and do not want to bring any attention to themselves. Azrael wanted to only monitor their movements for the time being since Blake Elon was a greater threat to the Holy Order, but since….” Sir. Aldridge informed th
The two sisters looked at Julie with confusion. Family vacation? When was this supposed to take place? Then Tabitha’s eyes widened, and she remembered that Blake had promised them a family vacation after Tabitha had graduated from college, and she smiled in her remembrance. She stopped at a posterboard when she first met Blake, and he promised her a family vacation to celebrate her graduation. With all that had happened since then, she had forgotten entirely this promise until Julie brought it up.“I forgot Blake’s promise since then,” Tabitha replied.“Then it’s good that I reminded you,” Julie said.“Mom, with everything going on, it’s going to be a miracle that even he remembers the promises he made,” Tabitha replied and checked on her son, who had woken from his nap.“No, a promise is a promise. Blake has to make it happen.” Julie said, folding her arms to reintegrate her demand.“Mom, I’m a Mother as well, and going galavanting on vacation is the last thing I need to do,” Tabitha
“What do you think Blake is doing to her?” Kelly, who was naïve, wondered as pain and punishment sounded from the home.“Sounds like he is punishing her for not being forward with her information when they came into the truce,” Sylvia replied to Kelly.“Blake doesn’t punish. He’s too nice of a person.” Kelly replied, not knowing Blake for too long.The woman around her looked at her naive nature and laughed.“Blake once killed all those who had occupied this town because they were evil people who were planning on harming the world,” Sara replied, as she had been there when it had happened, even to the point when her cousin wanted to kill her and Blake only to meet his demise at the hands of his saviors.“So, he’s not kind?” Kelly asked, worried.“Blake is kind, loving, and sweet to his family and friends. If you cross his bottom line, you are his enemy, and you will suffer greatly in his hands. Blake always says he would rather have many friends than many enemies. It’s unfortunate; he
“Okay, Clara. How will you guide us, and how did you enter Blake’s Traveling Formation? Only family or someone with a jade token can enter and travel?” Claire asked, leading Clara from the Traveling Formation.“He, he. A little secret, my dear.” Clara said, and this time, she sounded her age.Roseline was, after all, a Formations’s Master. The Formation Blake had created, even with the help of Silver Light, was still a weak Formation that she could infiltrate. If Blake had utilized the Scripture writings, this would have been another story for her.“Okay. Let’s not quibble over details. Is he still with Lucy?” Clara asked.“Yes,” Claire replied, looking at the home Blake had brought Lucy to.Suddenly, loud slapping came from the home, as did loud anguish sounds.SLAP!“AUGHT!”SLAP!“AUGH! MORE!”SLAP, SLAP!Everyone around looked towards the home, surprised to hear the beatings that were taking place within.Blake was there with a paddle in hand, and Lucy was bent over a coffee table
