Zavere turns away from Heidi. “You should wash up,” he mutters as he heads toward me. My bad, the elevator. “I’ll go get you food. You had nothing to eat last night.”

I move out of the way as he reaches to press his thumb on the fingerprint device. Then he waits for it to open. When it does and he’s about to step in, Heidi’s voice brings him to a halt.

“Wait!” She quickly wipes her tears and clears her throat. “Can I have whatever I want?”

Zavere nods.

“Then I’d like spaghetti with sesame oil, and I love to take alcohol after every meal.”

The Luciferic Lad doesn’t look like he intends to answer. He’s just staring at Heidi, and I’m standing near him, taking in what Heidi had seen from close range earlier.

She’s right, the man is good-looking—also scarily handsome I must admit. And his resting face looks more terrifying than Satan’s fuming expression. The girl doesn’t even seem afraid of it. Or is she used to him now?

It makes me wonder why they keep staring at times when they should be

  • To Put A Leash On The Master   Hunter's POV

    / HUNTER /The explosion reduced our once deluxe mansion to a dwelling of ashes and crumbling debris, remnants crunching beneath my boots as I step into the wreckage.I pause in the center of the blackened hall and look around, noting how much the fire ravaged the building to the point it nearly brought it to the ground. Chalk outlines on the floor mark spots where the bodies—now removed—once lay. And everything that once furnished the hall—chairs, tables, and many others—is gone, likely burnt beyond recognition and taken away for speculation. The same fate probably befell every other property in the mansion. I look around for Zavere. He is nowhere. Maybe I have not been searching the right places for a good leash to hold the man down. He’s always onto something silly whenever his alter ego surfaces.Crouching down, I use my index to wipe a spot on the soot-covered floor, that is when Zavere, ever so casual, crosses the hall threshold, his face twisting in mock annoyance.“I kept rin

    / X /I got it; the signal. It smelt good too. Excitement. Blood rage—though not so strong—like that of a Preyer longing to be fed.He’s pouncing on them right now. God, I hope there are many; like back at the mansion. It’s tastier when he’s going from person to person, hurling them to walls and stuff. And their collective screams of horror tingling in the ears in a pleasurable way.I’m rather met with disappointment, however. It’s just dear old Magen looking at the Madman like she’s never seen a ghost in all her seventy-something years of life.She’s slowly backing away from him, her wrinkled and frail hands clutching the edges of her apron. Hunter cracks his neck before his eye begins to gleam with the predatory instinct of a being who has toyed with death way too much. Actually, death isn’t the only thing he’s toyed with. He’s done the same for people’s lives. Hell too, twirling its fires around his fingers like they were his hair strands. And at moments like this, he always had

  • To Put A Leash On The Master   Crazy Illusions...

    / HEIDI /It seems to take an eternity for Luivanne’s bike to pull up at the police station. The area is a chaotic swarm of camera flashes, police cars, vans, and people shouting over one another, trying to make their way past the first few steps into the station building. But the cops lining the front do their best to hold them back. The scene reminds me of the day I was removed from my position as CEO, how Dad Griffin made me stand before a hall full of people to deliver the humiliating announcement myself. I had to apologize for failing the public, though I still can’t figure out how not passing a family test had let every other person down. Luivanne, despite the chaos, drapes his jacket over my shoulders. That’s the first kindness a man has shown me in a long time. He must have sensed how frozen I’ve become. And though I didn’t try to show it, I believe my distress got to him.Determined, he pushes through the cluster while guiding me to the front steps where a stern-faced off

    Who would believe me if I told them what I saw? That a man single-handedly slaughtered so many at a time; including trained bodyguards, that he dug out their hearts, then incinerated the mansion to hide the evidence. It makes no sense, just as it makes no sense to report a thing that’ll only complicate me.I shouldn’t have come here. If I’d thought to run instead, I would have made it far from Hunter’s reach. The man in question remains in my line of sight, only now he flexes a triumphant smirk at me. What in God’s name is he? The devil? A grim reaper?I suddenly push up from the chair and make for the door.“Miss Heidi, we’re not done,” the officer calls after me. But I simply throw a dismissive wave and disappear into the corridor.As my hurried paces bounce off the walls, I glance over my shoulder to wash off the lingering feeling of being followed.The pressure overwhelms me sooner and unease seizes my chest. I break into a run.I don’t look back. And I don’t stop until I reach

    / X /I do not think I’m missed much these days. Never was anyway. Last night, I returned home after a few more hours of uninteresting events. As it happened, dear ole Papa wanted me out immediately. The old guy didn’t even let me breathe for a second. Jeez!I’m glad he chased me though—if not, I would have missed this LOVELY situation. Ya know what I mean? Like, there’s Heidi. I’m watching her sleeping. But there’s also fear. And there’s suspense.I want to know what she’s seeing; experience the hellhole Hunter tossed her in for myself. But, for stupid unknown reasons, I procrastinate till the girl wakes up.She winces, her face twisting in agony as she sits up on the bed; screaming, her legs bent and arms stretched in front of her.The painful sensation pulsing beneath her skin is unbearable, her palms and knees burning as if greeted by fire. And the more she screams, the more each pulse sends sharp stings through her bones with an intensity that threatens to tear her limbs inside a

    Zavere is remarkably tender with his actions, occasionally glancing at Heidi’s countenance to check if she shows any signs of discomfort.“It’s how I have this mark across my eye,” he says while adding ointment to the injuries. “Actually, it’s more than just being twins. We are bonded for life.”Heidi huffs in disbelief. Is the man telling some child tale to distract her from the wounds’ pain? If only he knew she doesn’t feel a thing.He notices her skeptical reaction. “I swear. I’m not making this up. If Hunter dies, I die too.”“Okay, now you’re making it up.”Zavere chuckles, and Heidi does too.“I said I’m not.” He starts rolling a gauze around her hands. “Do you think we twinned our right eyes, too?”Heidi’s chuckle dies out in an instant. “I think you both share that dangerously calm aura,” she says almost snappily, causing Zavere to glance up at her. He can sense the animosity leaking from her tone but can’t tell if it’s for Hunter or them both.As he finishes wrapping the hands

    / HUNTER /“The review rating for White Group is plummeting. The company is on the verge of collapsing. Something has to be done before that happens.”Silence. I’m twirling a pen between my fingers.“Mr. White?”More silence. The brief session with Heidi hours ago still plays on my mind—when I finally got to hold her after months of longing. It’s a pity it was not in the right circumstances though.I had drawn close to her; inch by inch, anticipating the moment when our lips would magnet. The urge to take her then and there kicked in. But the girl was fragile; too weak to handle my lust. I would exhaust her if I were to start, so I put her to sleep before flying her back to Alloy City.“Mr. White.”My eyes flicker to the Lawyer sitting across from me. The latter, looking dapper, narrows his eyes at me.“What were you saying?” I mutter.“I just explained how you might go bankrupt at this very minute.”My brows crease, then perk up as I register the Lawyer’s words.

    The hallway echoes the footfalls of stomping darkness.But as the mute walls give way to the caress of a slow and brooding piano motif, the huge, two-way door at the hallway’s end brings us the pleasantries of a room screaming sanity and proper celebrations.A descent of steps in front of me leads to the dance floor, where pillars are still but bodies swing. With the roof high and ‌unending, the floors are as slippery as the devil’s tongue, absolutely unfit for a person to walk on.Except these aren’t people. No, they’re not. They look ‌paradisiacal. Vibrant despite the hall’s caliginous state.As the ladies trip the light fantastic to a hypnotic rhythm, their bowl dresses swirl around their feet, their long and colorful strands like air behind them. The smiles capturing their countenances tell the tales of their light minds, charming the gents who look graceful in patterned tailcoats over black pants.Their light tones unite to battle the funereal aura of the hall, somehow nearly kil

    Not a familiar name, that one. I’ve heard nothing of it until now.Maybe he didn’t make it to the history books. It could be about the empire; history must have registered the empire instead.But I must find a way of asking about it without compromising myself. That way, I can also note this woman’s level of intelligence.“Um…” I clear my throat, shuffling to the stool I once sat on and placing my hands on it to drop my weight. “My ‘experiments’ have eaten most of my time, and I’m probably too exhausted to recall a lot of… things.” Wait. Do I sound medieval enough? “Did I... have any plans for today?” Does she understand? She’s looking at me with her lips slightly parted, and I think it’s disbelief, especially since her hands have stopped working.“Queva,” she says, then rests against the counter. “Finish the Battle of Cutting Seas, conquering Queva. Then... celebrate... with the emperor. Your experiment’s progress has not fared well of late, and you needed to ease your mind. Seeing

  • To Put A Leash On The Master   Dead And Alive

    HEIDI.The rich, warm scent of soil, of fresh rain on earth, reminds me of how it feels to be alive.It looks to me like I’ve been thrown into a random fiction series—dark fantasy, to be precise. Should I say it’s the underworld? Nah. The underworld wouldn’t look this good. Heaven wouldn’t be this bad(?) either. Between? Maybe. But I can’t recall whether Philosophers mentioned a place between the two.Regardless of what this is, it’s a surety that I’m dead. Its near ruin of greys and ashes, mists and moisture, stones and bristled grounds, only makes me thank my shoes—and a soul that had formed a sole to tread on melting metal.I find I’m standing in a lone and narrow medieval street that looks like a painting, flanked by dark, imposing brick buildings. Their pointed roofs give me chills, especially as they look as if they could pierce the looming, twilight grey sky until it releases the clouds upon my very head.Speaking of the sky, I don’t know if I should tag it sunless or moonless.

    “Another blood oath? I resisted the first,” I say as I look at the Umbra Crown who is suddenly bearing an excited demeanor.“Ah, ah. This one is different.” He rubs his index and thumb fingers like a chef warming up for his next delicacy, disappearing and appearing in the fog while scurrying around pillars. He suddenly stops close to me, sniffing near my neck. “It is like… an awakening. Hah!”Then he vanishes again.When he comes back, it’s with a ring this time, one the size of his head. Its property is unknown, but it shimmers with lights that seem alive, looking like a colorful snake slithers inside it.The object could break if it falls; that is how fragile it looks. The Realm’s Future, they call it. It is also the only thing with color in the Labyrinth, aside from the Umbra Crown’s golden eyes that are now peering at my face pores.“No,” I mutter when he tries to crown me with the ring. I know what it does to people. It deceives. “Do not manipulate me with that thing again.”“O

    HUNTER.There is a forlorn whistle; a tune sounding like a call for help, only, it’s not that.It is a bird―Tapi’s Fury. A creature of the dark, built like the nightingale, with a song as loud as the latter’s. It’s never found in the human world or the Realm. Tapi’s Furys are known to exist only in the Labyrinth of Shadows―a dreaded dwelling created by the legendary sorcerer, Tapi, to shield Kings of the Realm from the talons of Firnes.It has endless pillars—of roughly stacked stones—spread out in rows through the Labyrinth, all leaving four paces between each other.The pillars’ tops reach the sky where they disappear in black clouds of rumbling mess, while their bases are rocks shaped like vines, stretching out as roots on the dry, rough ground.One distinctive feature of the Labyrinth is its colorless nature.Diverse smell is not a leisure either.One could wear whatever scent they liked. As strong as it may be, it all ends in a blast of roasted earth breathing in the wake of a b

    My car’s parked across the road with me in the driver’s seat. White’s main company building overlooks us, the road partition and the crowd serving as my only blockade to it.I should ride into the building’s garage. It’s safer now, after all, as the police are now limiting the severity of violence and have placed barriers so the crowd won’t obstruct people getting in and out of the building.But I’m still feeling like a tightrope walker; afraid of so many things at once that I can’t begin to point them out.And yet what’s more disturbing is the wailing throng. Their famished appearances, coupled with the fact that most have slept here for days because they can’t return home and be reminded of their deceased loved one is enough to drive even the cold-hearted to sympathy. Hunter excluded.While watching the hectic scene, I notice an odd person cut through the crowd into the building. I only saw their backside. Yet, regardless of them being fast, I caught that the person was a male.He wo

    “How do you feel?”Not fine.“Like you should fuck off?”The man behind me huffs. He should try moving to my front so I can fucking ask him why he’s everywhere at once.“Are you always in such a foul mood?” he asks, prompting me to turn back. And there he stands; the one guy I know whose smile can force bile up my throat.“You only happen to meet me when I’m the most offended,” I snap. “Blame it on your ill luck.”“Even at the restaurant?”I squint my eyes as if warning him to vomit whatever he has in mind or I’ll bite. “What restaurant?”“New Year’s Eve. KF restaurant.” I pout before the man adds, “In the male bathroom?”Bloody male restroom? How the fuck did we meet― oh… Oh! That was him? The buzzcut guy that I didn’t care to look twice at! No wonder I kept feeling like I knew him from somewhere.I take the opportunity to register the rest of him, though I try not to stare hard or he’ll deem me a pervert.All I can say is that his name fits his looks. Also, the mystery in his aura s

    Walking away this time, I am sure as hell not stopping if the man behind me tells me to.I don’t like his guts, that’s one thing. Another is the look on his face whenever he regards me; smug, with a smile that never seems to fade. However, it’s a good thing he’s not tall, dark, and handsome like a certain vicious man. And he looks good nevertheless. Just a tiny message across to Hunter reminding him one more time that he’s not the god he thinks he is.The drive back to White Cosmetics wasn’t a smooth one. It seemed as if the number of people joining the protest increased per hour. And it’s not even half the population still considering it.Last week, I didn’t realize how hectic resuming work was, but today it hit me. A few days ago, I’d be mopping the floors of Saturn’s or Morton's room while sneaking my phone out from time to time to chat with Hunter. And I enjoyed those moments… more than anything.Now I’m sitting behind a desk that holds so many taxing memories, hellbent on grabbin

    Today’s Monday is Monday as usual.One could be overlooked on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, as their presence could have been familiarized—or something like that. No one bothers to care when they walk by.However, on Mondays, the dust brought up during the weekends is left unsettled, eliciting side-eyes and whispers when one reappears. Aside from that though, Mondays are naturally terrible. I don’t know the kind of jinx bound to it, but I’m pretty certain the same power has me in its grip as I enter the conference room.There strike the stares, making up for where the whispers do not. These folks were loud just seconds ago. Now the only sound in the hall is from my shoes.My seat creaks when I sit down. Surely, it appreciates the daredevil aura of my presence as I cross my legs, lean back, and place my elbows on the handrest.So, where were we?A hand supporting my jaw allows me to look carefully at a few people’s faces—their grey hairs, their wrinkles; I don’t know if
