We’ll end up having a late lunch. But the time spent in the overpass is worth it.

Honestly, I didn’t want to leave. Maybe we should have stayed longer. Or…

“Having a home in a place like Luli Overbridge would be exotic. Become a pet to the doves,” Zavere utters out of nowhere, and I would’ve burst out laughing if I weren’t cautious that we are in one of the most classic restaurants in the world.

“Is that what it’s called? Luli Overbridge,” I say instead. That gets me a side-eye from the man.

“You have been in Alloy all your life, Heidi.”

“And? I’ve not had the opportunity to flex a free one like you’ve done with… your brother. So far, I’m only familiar with Alloy's main city and Braevalle.”

I glance around the restaurant, then I stare at my fingers. Then… I look at the hectic city beyond the glass barriers of the building for a while. All to avoid meeting with Zavere’s devouring eyes. And yet he keeps staring, sitting opposite me, relaxed in his chair with his right hand on the table.

Who else agrees that Zavere's mood throughout the last episode and this episode has been 'Hunter who?'

    “He lives, I feel it,” Zavere says after taking his time. “He’s alive, but there is silence. He doesn’t feel anything… massive.”I don’t get what he’s trying to say, but I guess he does have some connection with his twin? “You feel something when he does?”“Not just something. It has to be big. Like an intense pain or pleasure.” More like the intense pain of his victims, and the intense pleasure of the motherfucker.“Maybe you should have felt his ‘intense hatred’ when he committed that murder?” I ask calmly, looking down at my soup while stirring it with a spoon. However, when I look up, I feel like my food could hang in my throat as I find Zavere staring at me with a blank face, again. That rouses my rage. “Oh, you did, and you said, ‘Oh hey! He’s my brother. He’s having a little fun with some dummy humans, so why not?’” I realize I’ve just caused a commotion. All eyes are now on us. Jeez! What is wrong with me? Why do I keep blaming Zavere? Why do I blame every fucking thing in th

  • To Put A Leash On The Master   To Go Up Or Not

    The elevator would have been better closed than not.Maybe the system has malfunctioned, or I’m the problem. After all, I will not deny that my head is scrambled, torn between two choices; to go up or... Fuck it!Going up is the best option to end this restlessness once and for all. But so many things would go wrong, especially as my girl is there and this rage in me wants to stab thorns in her flesh.I should not let that happen, should I? I have to protect her, even if it takes me killing myself, which I bloody can’t!Her face, artless and mild with sparkly eyes, flashes before me. She is standing beside the panel, signaling for me to get up. And I do. She then motions me to approach. I still do, but miss the part where she frowns, blood streaming down her eyes as anger swirls in them alongside hate—massive disgust.The scissors in her hand are not far from my neck. They make contact, yet the pain is not even near as intense as what I am feeling from the sight itself. And I’m taken

    ‘Frosty the Snowman… was a jolly happy soul… with a corncob pipe and a button nose… and two eyes made out of coal…’Clock Chimes.Singing Birds.Loud Giggles.Running Footfalls.And my perfectly clear vision of a busy morning full of snow and Christmas rubbish.How I reached about two hundred kilometers from the company building on foot might be a mystery to living folks, but the dead cannot deny how short a journey can become.It is never a wonder why this part of the country has not awoken to the dawn of complete modernity, forever reserved for all things retro—could be attributed to the fact that Christmas smells and looks better on these streets that have basic terracotta buildings lining each side of the brick road.Parked cars along the right side of the road are my support as I trudge through the snow, stumbling at intervals but halting when tiny quintuplets run into my way. Can’t differentiate the looks of these humans sometimes, especially the little ones, their eyes wide as

  • To Put A Leash On The Master   These Feelings I Still Breed

    ~ HEIDI ~This headache will mince my brain to nice little cubes sooner than I’m able to find a painkiller in one of these fucking drawers.There used to be many of them—the painkillers, I mean—usually on the table, under the pillows, in the wardrobe, in the drawers, even on the damn floor. How I cannot find one when everything else in the room remains the same is not a mystery, but unsettling.“Fuck. I can’t be arsed,” I mutter just as my phone dings on the bed.Sitting on the floor and resting my back against the bed, I go through the meager, little thing that won’t stop buzzing―happens Reverse Hunter sent a message; ‘Might not be back for a while. Do not dare miss your meals.’Oh, Zavere…The guy’s so fucking nice that he cannot stop caring about me. Meanwhile, the bastard on whom I’ve wasted so much time, tears, and feelings haven’t once asked how I felt since we met. Instead, he dropped a boulder into a stream of lava. Fucking joker.The phone doesn't render comfort, yet I find it

    Holy shit! I’ve just now discovered that my cellphone is in the envelope too. How did it get here?“I thought Saturn destroyed this,” I say, checking the device for damage. Thankfully, it looks as good as I last saw it.“Hunter had it taken back,” Zavere responds before the elevator ushers in a middle-aged woman who I suppose is the cleaner.She takes the glass pieces from him, puts them in the bin then goes ahead to clean up the mess the motherfucker made on the floor.Keeping the phone and putting away the rest into the envelope, I clutch my duvet tighter. I want to lie back but then I don’t want to. I also feel like I need to be alone for a long time. BUT… Zavere’s presence manages to tone that one down a bit.I guess him standing there while looking at me gives me peace. And that is something I’ve not had in a very… long time.“I don’t know what to do with…” I pause and sigh as I look at the envelope, wishing I could get far from it. “What am I supposed to do with this?”Zavere shr

    Each person holds out something in our direction: some an image of their deceased, others a banner with the words ‘Justice for (...)’ written on it. Different names, different faces, different pain. My vision gets blurry. Voices whisper inaudibly in my head as it aches. A thousand needles prick my skin, hellbent on deactivating autonomic nerves while triggering another—emotions, flocking in like a swarm of disturbed fish. And if Zavere hadn’t interfered, I would have been lost in the maze that’s my own mind.“Hey, come on. Look at me,” he whispers, the hand on my thigh caressing. But then he makes a bigger gesture; facing me, leaning in and grabbing my chin to turn my face toward his. “Trust me, Heidi, you’ll be fine.”I shake my head continuously. “I… I don’t think so…” What Zavere said is an underrated lie. This anxiety’s always going to be there, haunting me, reducing the woman I thought I was with every attack. So, no, Zavere. I will not be fine.“Shh. You’ve just got to breathe

    Tumbre Estate is the biggest in the country. Belongs to the Whites but isn’t as sullied as the family is. It’s like a quiet little town even though it’s not far from the city.Has been about two years since I last came here, and nothing seems to have changed. No, nothing. It’s the same old Tumbre with curvy roads flanked by Villas and trimmed little bushes.That Villa there, at our right, is inhabited by the family of a close friend I had. But after I was kicked out of my Villa, I lost contact with her. Didn’t even get the chance to say a fucking goodbye.“Do you want me to come with you?” Zavere asks as I get down from the Uber. I had requested to stop at the side of the road instead of the garage, as I didn’t bring the key to my Villa, and haven’t a clue how the Housekeeper and the Butler would react to seeing me. And no, I don’t want Zavere’s company. If I did, I would have stayed in the Company building where my room now smells like him.“No. Go find your brother,” I reply. My n
