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

Special Chapter One: A Victim of Jealousy (04)“Let me go!” Althea struggled to get her hair away from the painful grasp of the man who discovered her. It was their boss, and she can’t help but panic and ask herself;Isn’t he suppose to be away for days?! “I know what you want to ask,” the man dragged her from hall to hall with her hair. The men who were tardy suddenly stood up straight at the sight of him. Their leader growled at them angrily. “If I haven’t felt that something is wrong, this little mouse could have escaped! Incompetent! Do you want me to send your head flying?!”The others flinched, and they mumbled sorry to him. Their boss ignored them and kicked the door of their room open. Althea struggled once more when her eyes caught a bloody sight. Inside the room, the man who ‘helped’ her was lying on the ground, unconscious with blood gushing out of his head.He’s dead!Althea yelled in her mind. She wasn’t particularly concerned for the man, rather, she was delighted seein

---I did what I was ordered to, and when I finally got to the bottom of it…What the fuck?“I knew things would be interesting if I keep him by my side.” Startled, I looked at my sister who suddenly appeared out of nowhere. She was looking at the photo with interest in her eyes. She looked at me. “Erase every record the police had or anything within Victoria’s reach, we can’t have her figuring out everything before I can have my fun of them destroying each other.”“Hmmm,” I glanced at her. “Isn’t she your friend?”“Friend?” She smiled, appearing innocent. “I don’t have anything like that. Father banned that word to us, brother.”“... If that’s what you say.”“Good!” She turned and stretched her body. “Ahh, I can’t wait to see Sheryl get destroyed by the man she loves. Or maybe, it would be mutual destruct

—“Is that your fiance?” I asked as soon as I sneaked at her back, wanting to scare her.“Stop doing that!” She yelled at me. I laughed at her, telling her sorry. She clicked her tongue before nodding. “He is. Handsome, right?”“Hmm?” I pretended to think about it. “Not really.”She scoffed. “Really.”She turned her back on me and continued her work, facing the paper works that were piled on her table. She was 15.I stood behind her, looking at the man on her table.From the day I knew that all along, she was the leader, I decided to stay and look after her. When I told her about my decision, the pause she had was short but eye-catching. Before I could register the pause and understand the meaning behind it, she answered my words with a smile.‘I will be glad to have you under me.’ Her smile was pretty chilling, more bone-numbing than our father’s s

Normally, one should feel happy to know that someone was looking at their back, admiring them, but that’s not the case with me.Every time I look back, turn to look at her over my shoulder, every time I caught her eyes, I can’t help but shudder:She feels the same as our father.We were only half-siblings. We have the same father, but that’s not the case with mothers.My mother died when I was four, then our father brought another woman into the house after that. That woman was Charlotte’s mother. She was warm and kind. I remember her talking to me a few times.‘Charles, even though you don’t have my blood, please think of me as your mother too.’ She said one time when I tried avoiding her in fear that she wanted me dead. That was what most people who wanted to seize my father’s power would do if they were in her position

It seems like someone pressed the pause button of the world; Althea felt everyone in the supermarket stopped moving.‘No.’ She thought to herself as she watched the blood slowly forming into a puddle beneath her feet. She can feel the hot liquid trailing down her legs. ‘This can’t be!’This day is supposedly like the normal days she had. Strolling around and buying things she thinks she wants. But in the middle of it, she just suddenly felt it come down.She’s only six months pregnant.“Oh my god!” A lady came to her, holding her shoulders in worry.

SPECIAL CHAPTER ONE: A Victim of Jealousy (07)—“A brothel?” Althea asked as soon as she entered the place. Her eyes wandered around and she felt overwhelmed by the red hue of the place. The lights, the atmosphere, the people. Everything here was new to her. She doesn’t know what to feel.“First time here?” The lady in heels asked. She gestured to someone far away by her hand and the other nodded before leaving their sight. “Don’t be nervous, you will only be entertaining guests… Why you don’t want to? It’s money, you know.”Selling myself. If it was her in the past, she would strongly disagree and storms off from here. But now, she has nothing but emptiness, she abandoned her pride and morals.

SPECIAL CHAPTER ONE: A Victim of Jealousy (06)“What happened to you?” Altheaopened her eyes and saw a fuzzy scene. There were heads in front of her peeking at her from above. Althea could not recognize the features of the faces, but she knew they were medical workers because of their uniforms. It was the uniforms that the nurses and the doctors wear that she sees every time she goes to the hospital for check-ups and visits to her father.“You have been stabilized…” She heard muffled voices as if she was submerged in an ocean, waters entering her ear canals. She tried to move, but her body was too heavy like lead. She gave up and remained still, still unable to do anything, not even talk.“The man who found you and sent you here already paid for the medical bills…”‘What are they talking about?’ Althea had no clue. ‘It seems important.

SPECIAL CHAPTER ONE: A Victim of Jealousy (05)“Do you like it?” The man asked Althea who was silent with her head bowed. “Do you like it?”“...” She had no response.His eyebrows twitched. He dislikes being ignored despite ignoring people.He bends down and held her chin to look at him forcefully. “Hey, little mouse, I am asking you a question. Do you like it?”“...” She still had no response.With eyebrows raised, he stood up and stretched his arms. “Sigh! After all, we did to repaint the wall, that blood only amounted to that much. It wasn’t even able to cover one-fourth of the wall. So regrettable! Now, the little fierce rat is not fierce anymore…”He glanced down, his cold eyes looking at the woman who was sitting on the cold ground motionlessly. “She can’t even appreciate our
