“Did we do it? Did we just break the love chain?” Gabriel asked Fawn because the way they interpreted Josh and Isabelle’s conversation was that they’d broken up.

“I think so,” Fawn replied.

“Oh, would you two get over yourselves?” Zarif said to the angels.

“You weakened the love chain but it hasn’t been broken. Thank you for making our work a lot easier. A couple more tugs at the chain and it’ll finally break and the Devil will be victorious,” Gentel said.

“If the chain were to break, victory will be God’s, not Lucifer’s,” Fawn argued.

“It seems these two don’t remember what the bet was. Care to remind them, Zarif?” Gentel said.

“With pleasure, sister. The bet was to see who can break the love chain and end it forever, not just weaken it. End it! End it so that Garin and Hannah would not be reborn into the next generation, end it so their love would not be rekindled in the next life, and if you think that an ordinary break-up is going to do that then you’re a lot more stupid than we t

They were both ashamed that they weren’t able to protect their child and they were also angry that God and The Devil, their fathers, did this to them.Was being cast to Earth not punishment enough? Why give them a child if all they intended to do was take him away? The couple was angry.

    “What are we doing here, Chris? Why did you even invite me to this? You know I don’t like poetry,” Josh complained as they arrived inside the poetry house.“A good friend of mine invited me to come and said I could bring a friend so I decided to bring you because I know you’ve been feeling down lately and nothing motivates better than some heartfelt words, right? Besides, it’s better than sitting at home, pining over Isabelle. You need this, man!” Chris said to him as they took their seats.“Maybe for you, I don’t want to be here. Why didn’t you tell me that this was where you were taking me?” Josh whined.“Because I knew you’d say no,” Chris said with a smile and forced Josh into his seat.The large room was packed with a handful of people who were all taking their seats and there was a little stage just a few paces in front because Chris had taken Josh to a poetry recital.A well-dressed woman walked over to their table with a charming smile on her face directed at Chris.“Chris, da

His pent-up rage was starting to resurface, the rage he had since he was a kid but didn’t know why, rage inherited Garin after he was reincarnated in him but Josh didn’t know this so he struggled with understanding where his anger came from.He was in the boxing ring with Chris while Frank was outside the ring, pumping him up with words of encouragement. He had his gloves on while Chris wore the protective padding suit so Josh could hammer away his anger on him.“Come on, Josh. Let’s see what you got,” Chris said.“Yeah, get him, Josh,” Frank said from outside the ring.Josh moved closer to Chris and began to offload a flurry of punches on his torso. He was completely focused and hit as hard as he could and Chris was lucky to have been wearing the protective gear otherwise he would have crashed

    859 AD “Hannah, wait up,” Garin called out as he ran to her. “Come on, you slow man. The boats are not going to wait around all day,” She said with a smile and waited for him to catch up. “I’m coming. I’m running as fast as I can,” Garin said with some heavy luggage in his hands. He reached Hannah and she took some of the bags from him. “I told you to let me carry more but no, you needed to be a man,” she teased him as she took the bags. “You’re my wife and I promised to always treat you like a queen and queens don’t carry around heavy luggage,” He said. “I’m no queen, Garin,” She said to him. “You’re my queen,” He said and they kissed. “Now, come on, let’s go. We’re late,” She said and the couple picked up the pace. They reached the docks and saw the many boats that were already being filled with so many people who were travelling to various destinations worldwide.

    Back in the hospital, Josh was speaking with his friends about what to do with Isabelle in the same hospital with him. He didn’t know if he should go and see her or not and it was even harder to decide when Chris told him that Neo came with her.“This is crazy! Why this hospital of all hospitals?” Frank asked in frustration.“That’s the question you’re asking? How about the fact that she’s here for the same reason as Josh is?” Chris asked.“Guys, focus! What do I do about this?” Josh asked.“What do you think you should do?” Frank asked him.Josh wasn’t sure at all. He was about to decide when his doctor suddenly walked into his room to tell him about his condition.“Hi there, Mr Clinton,” the doctor greeted.“Hello doctor,” Josh responded.“So, your MRI scans just came back and I’m pleased to tell you that you have nothing to worry about because your brain activity is normal and there are no abnormalities in any way,” The doctor said.“That’s great news,” Chris said happily and Frank

    Gentel took out her wings and used them to navigate through the void of the realm that she was, inside the nexus of Isabelle’s subconscious. She floated around for a few minutes, searching around for Hannah but all she saw were different spirals of colours and shapeless shapes hovering around.“Where are you hiding inside this awful mind?” Gentel asked herself.She moved around for a few minutes longer until she came across a bright light just up ahead. She didn’t know what the light was but it was the brightest thing in this place so she decided to get closer to it.She flew closer and closer until she arrived at the light. She could barely keep her eyes open because of how bright it was. Gentel wasn’t sure what it was because it didn’t have a known form and didn’t look physical.“What the hell are you?” She wondered and reached out a hand to touch the light.As soon as her hand made contact with it, the light exploded like a supernova and it blasted Gentel away from it with a very p

He couldn’t believe that she was still convinced that he had feelings for Jennifer and it hurt to think that she may never trust him again and they wouldn’t get back together.He went into his kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge. He downed the entire content into his body and sighed in satisfaction as he finished it.He decided to take a shower because he felt dirty and with that, he went into his bathroom and turned on the water. The warm water fell all over his skin and it felt like magic. After he was done, he walked over to the little tub and was about to brush his teeth. He opened the cabinet and took out his brush and paste and when he closed it, he was staring at the mirror on the cover of the cabinet but the face he saw wasn’t his; it was Garin’s.He blinked almost immediately he saw the mirror and his face returned in it.

    Jennifer went back to her desk and her hands were shaking from anger. She had just calmed herself only a few moments ago and now, she was even angrier than before because the message she had just read from Isabelle could have meant anything. HEY, BABE! CAN’T WAIT FOR TONIGHT – “What’s tonight?” Jennifer asked herself. She began to imagine all sorts of things about what tonight could be like. Were they going to have sex? She wondered. Even if they were going to have sex, it wouldn’t be the first time and Jennifer knew it so why was she so bothered about it? What if it wasn’t sex? What if it was something worse like an announcement…of their engagement? She thought. He proposed to her and tonight, they were going to tell their families. “No, that can’t be it. They just got back together so it can’t be that,” She muttered to herself. She was so lost in her maniacal thoughts that she didn’t notice when Josh walked past her and back into his office. She finally snapped out of it when sh

    865 A.D ...A few years passed after Hannah and Garin made it to the peninsula after the storm that almost claimed their lives and the new life they had built there was shaping up to be the best they had ever had since they began living on Earth. When they first arrived, they were strangers in this new land. They didn’t know anyone and didn’t have anything except their ship and the clothes on their back. The peninsula was located at the coast of the North Pacific and it was a beautiful piece of land, surrounded by nature, rich and fertile and inhabited by a group of settlers who had begun their community there for more than two centuries since their ancestors discovered the land. They were a progressive people and they called themselves “Amans” and their land was called “Amania” which was derived from their native language and when translated to English meant “Paradise”. Hannah and Garin were foreigners in this new land and they were welcome with open arms and love. English was

    “The bet has to change, Lucifer,” God told him.“What do you mean the bet has to change? Change to what?” Lucifer asked.“You cannot tamper with man’s free will the same way I can’t. Josh and Isabelle know the truth and despite that, they are willing to continue their relationship. That simply means the love chain cannot be broken, maybe it can be with the next reincarnation but not with them,” God told him.“Then, what do we bet on or are you going to call everything off?” Lucifer asked, thinking his Father would use this opportunity to call off the bet entirely.The thought did cross God’s mind. He had put everything on the line before and had risked it all; his kingdom, his angels, his creation, everything. Now, he had a chance to make sure they wouldn’t be at risk anymore but the idea of getting rid of Lucifer’s hold on humanity was too good to miss out on.Since creation, Lucifer had dedicated his entire existence to poisoning the minds of humans, turning them against God and lea

    Isabelle slowly backed away from Gentel who was coming at her with the worst of intentions. She scanned around for something she could use to defend herself but there was nothing in sight. “Don’t even bother, you weakling! Nothing can save you from me,” Gentel said menacingly and moved closer to her.“What do you want from me?” Isabelle asked with shaky breaths, fear overwhelming her senses. “I want you to suffer, the same way I have because of you and lover boy over there,” The demon looked over at Josh who was still reeling in pain on the ground. “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Isabelle said to her. “Don’t worry, you’re about to find out,” Gentel raised her dagger. Josh got a hold of himself again and looked up to see that Gentel was about to hurt Isabelle so he mustered up the strength to stand. He saw an iron rod on the sidewalk and picked it up. He ran up behind the demon and ran the rod into the back of her head with so much force, it became all mangled up. “It s

    Several minutes after Josh passed out on the wheel, he slowly woke up and found himself sitting in a slightly dark room. He was a bit woozy and couldn’t see quite clearly but he looked around and his vision slowly became clearer.He wasn’t sure where he was or what was happening and then, he remembered that he was in the car. He instinctively raised his hands to grab the steering wheel but there was no steering wheel in front of him. Instead, there was a table and sitting on the other side of that table was Isabelle and she looked just as confused and clueless as Josh did.“Josh? What are you doing in my room? How did you get in here and why is there a table in the middle of my room?” Isabelle asked.She was also slightly woozy and didn’t understand what was happening. The last thing she remembered was going to bed and now this was happening! She was so confused.“I don’t know how I got here. One minute I was driving home from work and the next, I wound up here,” Josh told her, “Maybe

    862 A.D . . . The heat from the scorching sun burned the surface of the ocean’s waters, sending heat from every direction and it sizzled the skin of both Hannah and Garin as their ship floated across the still water in the middle of the ocean. It had been an entire week since they set sail off the Island and in all that time, they were yet to find refuge or a new place to settle. It was almost like all the land in the world didn’t exist anymore as all they could see on the horizon was an endless body of water. The fact that they were still alive was a miracle because within the one week since they got on the ocean, they were bombarded by burning heat, freezing cold and powerful storms that threatened to end their lives. Their food and resources ran out quick and they had to hunt for fish in the ocean to stay fed. Their resilience and will to live made it possible for them to survive but they wouldn’t last out here forever and desperately needed a way to get out of their predicam

  • Eternally Yours   Angelic Hypnosis

    Isabelle found herself in the nexus of her mind but she had no idea that that was where she was because rather than looking like an endless void or a different dimension, she was inside a small cottage and the house felt like home to her although she had never been in this house in her entire life. “Isabelle? Isabelle, can you hear me?” Dr Felicia asked.“Yes, I can,” Isabelle answered as she walked around inside the cottage. “Where are you right now?” The doctor asked. “I’m in a wooden house but I don’t know whose house this is,” She answered. “Okay, now listen to me. I want you to walk around the house until you find the front door. When you do, I want you to step out of it and go outside. Do you understand?” She asked. “Yes, I understand,” Isabelle answered and began looking for the door. Her mind was in the house but her physical body was still in Doctor Felicia’s office, lying on her couch. She was fully hypnotized and was on a journey of self-discovery even though it didn’

    “Ok, Isabelle. This is what we’re going to do. I’m going to need you to lay back on the couch and look up, alright?” Doctor Felicia Greene instructed.Isabelle did as the doctor had asked. She lay on the couch and faced up and as much as she tried to hide her nervousness from the doctor, she couldn’t.“It’s going to be alright, Isabelle. I’ve done this a hundred times before so you don’t have to worry,” She assured her.“Ok, doc,” Isabelle said.But she did worry because she knew how serious this was and was afraid that she could lose herself and have this other part of her completely take over. It wouldn’t exactly be great for her life or her career if she wasn’t herself anymore.And her mother! How would she feel if anything happened to her only child? She was already worried that Isabelle left the house this morning without telling her where she was going, she was worried that Isabelle wasn’t looking too healthy and was also worried about so many other things and adding this to the

She went to her table and immediately Josh saw her, he knew something was wrong.“I want to leave,” Isabelle told him.“What? Why?” Josh asked her.“I need to leave now, Josh. Don’t ask me why. Just…just get me out of here,”“But your mother will…” Josh wanted to protest but he could see that Isabelle was very upset and she was also shaking so he decided to do what she was asking.“Okay, we can go,” He told her.He got up from his seat and put his coat around her because of how much she was shaking. He held her hand and they both walked toward the exit but Josh led her to her mother’s table so he could tell her that they were leaving.“Rita, Isabelle and I have to leave,” He said.“What? Why?” Rita wanted to understand.“I’m all of a sudden not feeling good and she wants to drive me home and make sure I’m alright.
