"It seems you've made a mistake, Shade. Hannah can't be pregnant. It's impossible," Garin told the healer.

"What do you mean it's impossible?" Shade asked.

Garin moved closer to her and lowered his voice as he told her about their physical limitations.

"Hannah is barren and so am I. We can't have a child, together or with other people. You have to have made a mistake," Garin said.

"There is no mistake, Garin. Whether or not you and Hannah can have children isn't important. The fact is she's pregnant with a child," Shade said and tapped his shoulder, "You're going to be a father, Garin. I'll give you some time alone with your wife."

Shade walked out of the hut and left Garin alone with Hannah in the other room. He could barely lift his feet to go over to her because he wasn't sure what he would even say to her. This wasn't something that they ever bothered to plan for because they knew it was never going to happen.

Garin finally summoned the courage to walk into the other room.

    "Last call for passengers going to Thompson, Connecticut. This is the final call. Please get to the boarding aisle because the flight is soon to take off," The announcer's voice said on the speakers at the airport.Josh and Isabelle were already on the plane and had found their seats. They were sorting out their luggage and placing them in the top compartments. Isabelle was helping Josh load the bags and suddenly, one of them slipped out and almost fell on her head."Whoops! Be careful there," A young woman said just as she caught the big bag with one hand, right before it made contact with Isabelle."Wow," Isabelle said to the young woman, "Thanks for catching that bag. You seem pretty strong," Isabelle remarked because of the woman's subtle strength."I literally sleep in the gym. Hi there, my name's Cleo," She gave her hand to Isabelle."Hi, Cleo. I'm Isabelle and this is my boyfriend, Josh," She introduced."Hi, there. Thanks for saving her head," Josh joked."It's my pleasure. I'

    On the drive to Quaddick, Isabelle and Cleo were laughing so hard in the back seats as they spoke and got to know more about each other. Apart from their jobs, they had almost every other thing in common and they really hit it off.Josh listened to them from the front and he had a smile on his face the entire time. He was so happy to see Isabelle calm and relaxed, having a good time with her new friend without worrying about the strange things that had been happening to them. That was the point of this trip after all; to take a break from all the chaos and madness, to forget about their problems, even if it was just for a day and to spend some quality time in each other's company."So, if you don't mind me asking, how old are you?" Isabelle asked her."I'm twenty-six," Cleo said."Wow, I'm twenty-six as well," Isabelle said with a smile."What do you know? Another thing we have in common," Cleo said."You know what would be even crazier?""What?" "If we had the same birthday..." Isab

    Josh and Isabelle had settled into the house quite nicely and were already prepared to enjoy their evening together in the heat of the indoor Jacuzzi.They were happy to finally be away from the city and they had not had an episode of the time reversal that was affecting them before they took the trip. It was almost like a change of location had somehow negated the power within them and they felt normal again. Josh was still inside the bedroom while Isabelle was in the heated pool already, waiting for him. He was changing out of his clothes and into a pair of boxers and Isabelle was getting impatient.“Josh, where are you? The water isn’t going to stay warm forever, you know?” She called out.“I’ll be right there,” Josh said loudly from the room.He was ready to go to the pool and just as he was about to leave the room, his phone began to ring and he picked it up from the bed. It was Jennifer calling so he picked up.“Hello, Jennifer. Is everything alright?” Josh asked.“That was act

    866 A.DA month after their baby was born, Hannah and Garin felt so much happiness that they had never felt before.

    Josh and Isabelle were in bed after enjoying their time in the heated pool. They had enjoyed a fun evening together and despite how much they would have loved to do more, there was only so much their tired bodies could take for one night. They were both worn out from the stress of the day and the warm water from the pool had added to that calming and relaxed feeling that they felt, which was why they went to bed early.Isabelle woke up in the middle of the night because she thought she heard a noise coming from outside the bedroom. It was a faint sound and she wasn't sure what it was but was certain that something had moved around outside. She wanted to wake Josh and tell him about it but she decided not to when she saw how peaceful he looked as he slept. She didn't want to bother him so she decided to go out and check where the noise was coming from by herself.She got out of bed, put on her slippers and went out of the bedroom. She moved through the house and made it to the living r

    Cleo was sitting right outside the deck of the house because the other Celestials had asked her to excuse them so they could decide their next course of action. She sat there with her palms on her thighs, deep in thought about everything that she was up to and contemplating that maybe the risks were too great to bear.In the back of her mind, she was afraid that her actions could potentially have some deadly consequences and just as she felt her doubts and fears creeping in, she reassured herself that the rewards were indeed worth the risks."Everything she's saying sounds like a made-up tale. I don't trust this creature," Sader said to Hannah and Garin inside the house."You're a demon, Sader. Trust isn't really something you're naturally good at," Hannah reminded him."That doesn't matter! She's not telling us everything and I don't think it's a good idea to put all our trust in her," Sader said."She says she can't tell us his plans because she doesn't know what they are. I believe

    “This batch of grapes has been in the making for the past five years and after tender care and proper nurturing, they are finally ready for harvesting. The field runs for a while and everywhere you turn, there are grapes as far as the eye can see and it’s just a wonderful sight, isn’t it?” Janice said to them as she led them through the vineyard.“It truly is something special,” Josh replied.Isabelle didn’t say anything. She was still in awe of the beauty that the vineyard held. It was like she was in an enchanted fairytale book because it didn’t feel like she was still on Earth anymore. Josh could tell that she was impressed and he signalled Janice to leave them alone so they could enjoy the vineyards more intimately.“Well, sir, I should get back to the labs. In an hour, the pickers are going to begin the harvest so the grapes can be processed and sent to L.A,” Janice said.“That’s wonderful, Janice. Thank you,” Josh said to her.“Could we participate?

    "There you both are," Fawn said when she saw Hannah and Garin, "I don't know how you managed to hide from us, but I've had enough of your running."Norae and Fawn flapped their wings and slowly approached the broken house but Cleo stood in their way with both hands facing the angel sisters."Stay back or I won't go easy on you like I just did," Cleo threatened the angels."What are you supposed to be?" Norae asked because she could tell that Cleo wasn't anything she'd ever seen before."Come any closer and you'll find out," She said to her, "Hannah, Garin, take Josh and Isabelle and get out of here. I'll hold them off,""No one's going anywhere," Fawn said loudly and made her light sword appear in her hand."Take them and go. Now!"

    Later that night, Jennifer was asleep in her apartment when she felt a soft breeze blow around her which was accompanied by a weird sound. She opened her eyes and sat on her bed. “Summum? Is that you?” She called out, thinking the God had returned. “That ship has sailed, my dear and a new one has come to replace it,” A man’s voice said to her. In fear, Jennifer reached for the lamp on her nightstand and turned it on. She looked down at her bed and saw a man sitting in front of her with his legs crossed. “Hello, my dear. I’ve come to collect,” Lucifer said. “Who are you and what do you mean by that?” Jennifer asked, still scared. “You made a deal with one of my children and although she’s dead now, that deal remains and you were never able to deliver,” He said. A look of realization suddenly appeared on Jennifer’s face. This strange man was talking about her deal with Gentel and he had referred to her as “one of his children” and that could only mean one thing; HE WAS THE DEVIL H

    “Take a seat and let’s talk," Jennifer slowly walked over to her messed-up couch and took a seat, all the while without tearing her gaze away from the strange woman. “I can’t talk business with someone if I don’t know their name, now can I?” Jennifer asked, less afraid and more confident. She could tell that whoever this woman was, she wasn’t here to hurt her. She needed something from her which meant that she was valuable and if she was valuable, she surely wouldn’t be hurt. “Don’t flatter yourself, Jennifer. You’re my first choice but it doesn’t mean that you’re my only choice so I would advise you to maintain your fear of me,” The woman told her after reading her mind. She walked over to the table in front of the couch and sat on it, facing Jennifer. “My name is Summum, but you can call me Sue,” She said. “What are you?” Jennifer asked. “I am a God, and not one of those pagan monkeys that humans all worship…I am a real God, equal in many ways with the one who made the world

    Isabelle moaned with pleasure as Josh broke into her. She clenched her fist around the bed sheets and closed her eyes as he settled inside her. Her dark eyes remained dark as Summum’s power rose within the two of them. They were now at the point of no return, performing the act that would birth the last Nephalem and begin the revolution. “Take me, Josh. Don’t stop,” Isabelle moaned, willing him to go further, deeper, harder and faster. Josh drove himself into her and back out again, never slowing down the rhythm of his lovemaking. As he lay on her, he raised his head so he could look into her eyes and when he did, they were normal and they were so inviting. Josh kissed her lips, fondling her tongue with his while moving his hips. They both groaned and moaned, enjoying the feel of their bodies, basking in the heat emanating from them and loving every single piece of the moment they were sharing. Just outside the house, the winds were blowing strongly and howling loudly because of th

    Back in the shaman’s store, Hannah and Garin went back inside and found Selene flipping through a book that was placed on the table. “Is that book that has the spell we need?” Garin asked the shaman.“Yes, it is. Somewhere in its pages are a series of instructions, a list of all the ingredients needed to make a potion and the incantation that will get the Neph out,” Selene replied. She looked up and noticed the woman that was standing beside Garin and she could tell that Hannah wasn’t human despite looking like one. It didn’t take long before Selene sensed what Hannah was and she looked at her questioningly. “Um, Selene, this is my wife, Hannah,” Garin introduced her when he noticed the shaman staring at her. “Your wife?” Selene was shocked to hear this, “But, isn’t she a…?” “Yeah, she is. That isn’t important for now. Have you found the spell?” Garin asked. “Yeah, I have,” Selene said and tried to restore her focus to the task at hand, “Here it is,” She pointed at a page in the

    In the middle of the night, Garin woke up to the sound and feel of the wind coming into the room through the open door. He sat up and his eyes immediately fell on Hannah who was asleep, still facing the direction away from him. He turned his gaze away from her and looked at the entry point, wondering why the door was wide open. He looked over at the other side of the room and saw that neither Layla nor Kessie were on their mat-bed. “Oh no,” He whispered and dashed to his feet. Hannah woke up to the sound of his movement and looked at him, wondering what was going on. “What is it, Garin?” She asked as she sat up. “The girls are gone,” Garin told her as he went to search through their things. “What?” Hannah asked in shock, “What happened to them? Where did they go?” “I don’t know, Hannah. I just woke and noticed that they weren’t here,” He said while looking into his satchel, “…and neither is my bag of coins,” he added. They realized now that Layla had taken off with her sister a

    875 A.DAs the pack of wolves surrounded Garin, he was filled with a sense of dread and fear, knowing fully well that these animals were hungry and they were not going to be easy to get away from. Garin was unarmed and outnumbered and the only weapon he could find was a large stick of firewood. He picked up the log and spun around several times, trying to spot each wolf from every angle that they were coming.Garin counted seven wolves and they were all growling at him, snarling with their extremely long fangs, preparing to attack and claim their meal. “You dogs want a piece of me?” Garin asked aggressively, swinging his log around, “Well, come and get it,” he taunted the wolves.Three of the seven wolves launched a simultaneous attack from different angles as they dashed at him to rip him apart. Two pounced toward him but he rolled out of the way and they collided with each other in mid-air. The third wolf attack Garin who was crouched on the ground but he swung at it with the log a

    Hannah appeared inside the copy room which was dark so she used her power to switch on the light bulb. The room was brighter now and Hannah was able to look around for anything out of the ordinary so she could have some idea about who or what attacked Isabelle.She heightened the sense of her eyesight and scanned the room, looking for any traces or remnants of a Celestial or a Supreme so she could figure it out but she couldn’t find anything. Hannah decided to leave but just as she was about to, she heard something flutter just ahead of her, in the corner of the room and she walked over and bent down to inspect what it was. Just as she suspected, it was a remnant of a Celestial. It was like a sprinkle of dark fog that had settled down at the bottom of the floor and Hannah reached out and touched it.As her hand made contact with the fog, it stung her sharply and as she felt the pain, she recognized it. It was the same pain that she felt when she was cut by the Nephalem’s weapon back i

    "I think we have to test this out, just to be sure," Josh said."I am sure, Josh. Your assistant can see me even though I'm cloaked," Garin said.Josh didn't listen to what the demon was saying. He grabbed his office phone and called Karen's desk and asked her to see him in his office.Karen got off the phone and walked over and into Josh's office, wondering why he called her up."Yes, sir. What can I do for you?" She asked."Yes, Karen. I just wanted to know if we've received any orders from China recently. It's been a while since our customers over there bought our brand," He said."I'm sorry, sir but that's not the department I work with so I wouldn't have that information," Karen answered."Oh! My mistake," Josh said apologetically and saw an opening to squeeze in the question, "Before you go, tell me; Is there anyone in here right now except the two of us?" He asked.Karen looked around and was a little weirded out by the question but she couldn't tell her boss how she truly felt

    “It was always so simple, Sagarus,” Lucifer said to The Tormentor, “I had finally managed to have a chance to screw my father and take everything from him. I got him to accept the bet, I got him to put his entire power and control on the line and just when I was about to grab on to it, it slips away as it always has because, as it turns out, there’s another supreme being that’s just so conveniently been thrown into the mix and also wants the power for himself,” He vented.Sagarus wasn’t really known to say much so he just listened to Lucifer and grunted in agreement. They were in Lucifer’s chambers where the devil was contemplating how to turn the tide back in his favour.“What am I supposed to do now, Sagarus? How am I supposed to get anything out of this when the real fight starts?” Lucifer asked and turned to his demon for some advice; any advice at all.“I don’t know, my lord,” Sagarus replied, much to the devil’s dislike.“That’s not what I want to hear, Sag.
