CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED FORTY-SIX (04):—Under the glaring sun, two men trailed towards the depths of a certain mountain. The thick leaves of the tall trees were serving as their shelter against the scorching heat. A very typical day. A day where the two ventures in the wood to alleviate their boredom. “How much longer do we need to walk?” The man that was falling behind can’t help complaining. “We have been walking for half an hour, my feet are dying!”“Relax.” The man ahead laughed. “We would be there soon—”“You have been telling me that for ages.” The man stopped and tugged the collar of his shirt back and forth to somehow give himself comfort from the heat. He didn’t notice that the other stopped walking and was frowning. “Just tell me that we are lost, I won’t get mad—”“Shh!” His companion raised a finger to his lips. “Can you smell that?”You hushed me because you smelled something?! He could hardly believe his ears, he wanted to tease the other, but seeing his rare serious expr
FALLING IN LOVE AGAIN EPILOGUE (01)
EPILOGUE: —An afternoon precisely two years after the birth of a new compass that will lead a few people out from the raging storm in the middle of an ocean. Their boat rowed and rowed on the dark scary body of water, swaying violently against the swirling winds. It creaked, almost cracked, but alas;They made it out.“Zach! Be careful!” A tiny voice of a boy yelled at the top of his lungs. His breathing was ragged, he was sweating as he chased another small figure in front. He was fast on his feet, they kicked on the ground and stomped on the grass.Zach, a three years old boy ran without heeding the older’s warning. Ironically, despite having a smaller stature than the other, he runs faster. He laughed gleefully as he continued running for the other to chase. “Catch me, Kai!”“Oh come on!” The 9 years old Kai frustratedly said under his bated breath. Nonetheless, he still chased after his brother. His lips stretched side by side as if the frustration he had was nothing but a mere

EPILOGUE (02):—The ride towards the mansion where the other family members ended in a flash. Althea stepped out, carrying Titus on her right arm and holding Kai’s hand with her left. “Don’t be nervous,” Tyler whispered in her ears. He was carrying Zach on his arm.“I’m not.” She lied. Her husband laughed, earning her a frustrated groan. “Don’t worry, I’m here.”“Hmm.” Althea nodded, his words worked like magic, suddenly, her heart was like a galloping horse slowly calmed down. She took in the sight of the mansion. It was… Big, ridiculously big. She thought that their house is already big enough, but this is two times bigger. Althea stood there in awe, admiring how it stood on the ground like a massive tree. Persistent against any winds or storms. It was truly admirable.It was already dark, the sun was down the horizon and the lights of the streets were on. Half of the world is slowly entering the night. On the other side of the mansion, the garden perhaps was well lit. She can

EPILOGUE (03):—“Are you stupid?!” Althea can’t help but blurt out rather loudly. It was fortunate that it was only them at the moment. “Why did you not tell me? You’re aware that he doesn’t know my connection with Augustine. It’s only you!”“Oh!” Charlotte realized it too late. “My bad, my bad! It should be me, huh. Well, I didn’t mention it in the past because you hated him…”“Still…!” Althea sighed then cupped her forehead. “... How am I supposed to explain it to Tyler? That the father of Kai is his own cousin…”So that's why Tyler said that they are family! I thought he was just saying that because she’s my friend… They really are a family…“You don’t need to explain it though.” Charlotte started pulling her towards the garden. “Augustine probably already did.”“That’s impossible,” Althea said in a matter-of-fact tone. “Why would he even bother about that?”That man. He never looks at Kai as his own child. He never even acknowledged him. He even told him to ignore and act like th

EPILOGUE (04):—“That’s enough…” Althea breathlessly said, pushing the beast on top of her. “Goodness, insatiable!”“Sorry,” the man groaned and pulled out. “It was you who initiated.”They paused, trying to catch their breaths. The heat has yet to subside. Moments later, Tyler stood to get something.“Here.” Tyler offered her a glass of water.“Thanks.” Althea immediately drank it, watering her dried throat. When the steam already calmed down, something entered her mind. “Ah, yes. You mentioned that your mother and father got back together?”“Yes.” Tyler was in the middle of wiping her sweat. “What about it?”“Why is it that she didn’t go to the gathering…?”“Ah.” Tyler paused and tried to recall something. “That might be because she’s still guilty about the past.”“I see.” Althea nodded. “She must be lonely alone then.”Tyler suddenly laughed. Althea asked what he was laughing about. “About that, I actually sent her a gift.”“?” —The night when Tyler and Althea had dinner with th

SPECIAL CHAPTER ONE:A VICTIM OF JEALOUSY—WARNING: The following contents may include; violence, sexual assault, death, etc. Reader discretion is advised.That certain night was very dark and gloomy. The heavy and thick dark clouds hang lowly in the sky, and the once beautiful moon was nowhere in sight. In a particular secluded place where a thick forest surrounds it like a massive fortress, an eerie and bone-numbing event will happen for a whole one month.“Who are you?! Why are you doing this to us?!”A sharp yell broke the cold silence of the night. The voice was weak, but anger and fear were heard strongly in it. The voice was distant, or so in the ears of the still unconscious pregnant woman. Her finger twitched. “You don’t need to know.” A voice of a man. It was unfamiliar—yet it was not. “Ah, I guess I can tell you one thing though; blame yourselves for getting acquaintance with Tyler Barns.”Tyler? A familiar name shook her awake. Her eyes fluttered open, the blues were h

SPECIAL CHAPTER ONE: A Victim Of Jealousy “Please, stop!” Althea sobbed loudly. She struggled and struggled so much but she can’t get away from the chair to which she was tied. “Don’t hurt her anymore!”“AAAHHH!!” Alannah let out a piercing scream as the pliers pulled the last nail she had on her feet. “AAAHHH!!! Stop!!!”Althea was having a hard time breathing watching the bloody scene in front of her. She can’t help but sob again and she twisted to try and break free from the rope. But being starved for a day made her hopelessly weak. She sat there, helplessly as they do inhumane things to her mother.Her mother’s scream echoed in the four corners of the room. It was a numbing scream like a pig getting butchered. Althea’s ears feel like they are bleeding from her cries, she struggled again and wounds started to emerge on her flesh. “Please, let it be me!” Althea begged. Her tears were obstructing her visions. “Let my mother go! I’m the only one you want, right?! She hasn’t even me

SPECIAL CHAPTER ONE: A Victim of Jealousy Coldwater trickled down, and Althea watched as it fell beneath her feet. While as she watches the translucent water, she can’t help but wonder if it was the shower or her tears. “It’s okay, Althea.” She can hear her mother’s voice again, with her bandaged hands cupping her face. “I will get us out of here.” —she started giving them her body. Wham! She slammed the side of her fist on the wall, hoping for the physical pain to take the pain in her heart away. “What are you doing?” A man outside the bathroom asked. “You better finish your bath early. Or else I will wash you myself.” Althea turned to glare at the closed door with tears in her eyes. I will kill them all! Althea seethed in her heart. I swear, I will kill them all myself! The man punched the door and reminded her to hurry bathing, making her rub her skin harder than usual so that it turned red. She didn’t bathe for too long, she was already out before five minutes could pass
