Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56"Excuse me, Sir, sorry to interrupt you, may I ask you something?" Mrtyu approached Mr Alex to inquire about his grandson.
Mr Alex nodded enthusiastically as he gazed at her fading face. "What exactly is it, young lady?"
"Where is your grandchild?" Mrtyu questioned him frankly, without equivocation.
Cherry opened his mouth to ask Mr Alex, “You have grandson, Alex? You never mentioned a single word that you got grandson?”
Mr Alex felt that now the colours from his face faded out, “Pardon?”
Cherry replied to him, “What pardon, Alex? Are you deaf or what? She is asking about your grandson. He is naughty little fellow, he got girlfriend… hahaha.”
Mr Alex asked her ignoring Cherry asked Mrtyu, “Why are you asking about my grandson? How do you know I got grandson?”
“He told me so. He boarded on our bus, isn’t he? Mrtyu said with a mixture of shock and tremble.
Cherry

After a few minutes of discussion in a whisper, Cherry Hornworts broke out, “No, Alexander, I can’t sacrifice my life for your experiment. You are putting the risk on everyone’s life. I am not helping you.”“Don’t run, you coward. We have to face our destiny.”“Destiny!!! I have escaped my destiny in the size of thread half a century ago. I can’t invite my death. I am not too old to be dead. I have many businesses to run. Oh, Alex, you have the potential to make a businessman as your driver.”“Hold your tongue, Cherry. You never accept my call for free, you called your price and I have paid it in advance. No bus driver has fared in millions, you idiot.” Mr Alex took a deep breath and persuaded him, “We started it and so we have to end this, stick with my plans.”When Mr Alex was convinced to stay rather than dropping the idea of return, the eyes of Cherry Hornworts were fi

Mrtyu bite her lower lips to control herself from uttering any words, the elevator door dinged open to the floor after a few seconds. Aaron escorted her to the room where Mrtyu had stopped him. "My room number is written in the key. I can transport my belongings. Thank you for directing me to the correct floor..."Aaron came to a halt as she unlocked her room door, entered, and before closing it, remarked, "You don't have any memory of what happened last night?"Aaron nodded his head negatively, Mrtyu analysed something in her mind quickly and apologized to him, “Mr Aaron, sorry for throwing tantrum on you. Hope you will forgive me.”Mrtyu flung herself in the hotel bed after closing her door and attempted to remember what happened the night before. "No, not now," she thought to herself as the light rays streamed through the window and landed squarely on her face.She stepped nearer the window, bewildered by the view. She has seen four m

Mrtyu again took the staircase to reach the dining area ignoring the elevator. On her reach of every floor, she admired the beauty of the Hotel Blue Moon.“This building is based on Greek and Roman architecture.” She soon picked her notepad in her sliding bag to take her notes.She stopped by every floor and wondered, “How did they build this each floor to look like... I am so confused and hats off for the architect.”She told to herself and stopped by the portrait of the masked man in standing posture. “This portrait is perfectly painted.”The nostrils of Mrtyu smelt the flavours of food and she scooted her legs to the dining area to feed her stomach.*****After everyone had fed their stomach, feeding for the brain started. As per the instructions taken from their colleagues, Mrtyu stayed back in the queue and was almost wandering lonely.Aaron gathered every student to the living area to address

Aaron pleaded with extreme excitement, “Granddad, what do you think of her.”Mr Alex trotted with a direct question, “Is this the correct question to ask me since she is one of my students?”“Nah that is not what I mean. Nevertheless, I have to bring her to you for your blessings.”Mr Alex hid his smile inside his lips and pointed his index finger at Aaron. “You got guts to ask me, huh?” after a pause for a few seconds, he asked again, “Are you sure about her?”“Hmm, I can’t explain in words that how I feel when I first saw her. It was like… how to explain this old man about the feelings of your grandson?”“If you can’t do it, then drop this as you are in the initial phase. It won’t be harder for you.” Mr Alex said those words purposely to witness the reaction of his grandson.Aaron looked at Mrtyu who was taking snaps of the Hotel Bl
HEXA : MERCHANT OF DEMISE Chapter 14 - Victorian Villa
The second villa was the epitome of Victorian architecture. The entrance and interior were too stunning, with perfection visible in every corner. The portrait of Hexa De Morte, as in the first villa, welcomed everyone. Hexa is seated on a throne-like chair, with a magnificent king-like expression and his different porcelain mask over his face in this portrait. The three girls, Gnetol Raspberi, the redhead, Nadira WhiteShadow, the greenhead, and Acantha Neptunewings, the bluehead, crushed everyone and went to the front to gaze at the portrait. "Oh, this man is majestic," Gnetol gasped. Acantha, a blue-haired girl, agreed with her friend about the portrait, saying, "He looks appealing with the mask on. Hook! Is there a portrait of him without the mask?" "I am worried," Host Hook said anxiously,he stopped as his eyeballs rotated from right to left and vice versa, "...there is none. Every villa has a painting of him wearing the mask. T

“Granddad, are you coming with us?” Aaron invited his grandfather, who denied his invitation.“No, you carry on with your craziness. Don’t bother me. I just wandered around... (Mr Alex paused when he looked at the portrait of Hexa)... here. “Mr Alex replied.Aaron nodded and scooted to look for Mrtyu. She was behind everyone else, wandering the place where all students waited before the big door, which had a naming board made of glass, and it stated, in etched words, “Laberinto de Espejos.”Everyone had fun articulating the word on the door. Mrtyu opened the translator app on her mobile and took a screenshot of the board, “Laberinto de Espejos,” the app publicized as, “Mirror Maze.”“The architect who renovated this building has purposely named everything in Spanish.” Aaron remarked, “It wasn’t freshly etched, it might have aged half a century.”Everyone

The mirror maze was perfectly built, one needed to touch the glass surface to identify between the wall and the door as it reflects everything. Everyone enjoyed the maze and was amused to find the door to exit which was soundproofed. So no one can hear others except the people who are with them. After Aaron exited through one door, Mrtyu was left all alone in six walled mirror maze, she took her mobile and found a no-signal icon. “Damn this place. No signal. They have installed the signal jammer or what?” She clicked on the camera icon to photograph her reflection. To pass the time while waiting for Aaron's return, she attempted different positions and made funny faces. When she was taking pictures, she saw a scarlet butterfly was twirling around her head and landing on her left shoulder which was reflected in the mirror in front of her. Mrtyu turned her head with a smiling face to look at the butterfly and no presence of butterfly, “Where did it go?”

Mrtyu was dwelling on his coldness. Her eyes involuntarily opened to look at him. Her eyes gazed over the mirror behind them, and it dilated the pupils in her eyes in terror. “What...?” She was shocked. “How is this possible?” Apart from the frosting atmosphere, Mrtyu could feel her pearls of sweat on her forehead as her heartbeat increased rapidly and the terrifying tremble spread all over her when she found only her reflection in the mirror around her and nothing else like the scarlet butterfly or the man who had been still. Her enlarged green eyes turned to her side, and she saw the man kissing her passionately, and the terror grabbed her soul horribly. When she felt her palms cold in fear that his hands were squeezingher waist, she found it impossible to breathe. “I can touch him,” she said as her hand around his neck unwrapped slowlyand her quivering fingers just reached his shoulder. Mrtyu gasped for

After a few minutes of digesting Hexa’s anger, Mrtyu wiped all her tears and told to Aaron hoping he could hear her, “Ron, I am sorry; I should have listened to your warnings. I think I’ve messed up. Yet I am not letting my guards down.”Mrtyu ran into the washroom to refresh her. She came out with wrapping and fit herself into the things which Hexa offered her as quickly as possible. After she was done, she rushed to open the door. But before she could pull the door’s handle, the door opened automatically for her.She found Hexa standing by the door waiting for her. He wore a blue tuxedo with a white shirt matching his outfit with Mrtyu. He romantically offered his arms to Mrtyu to get hold of; she stood like a statue on seeing with open arms.“Obsessing with me is quite natural,” Hexa told her with self-esteem. Mrtyu inhaled some air to fill her lungs that were out of breath and she f

Hexa offered her freshly tailored blue night ball gown with matching jewels. Mrtyu looked with wide eyes yet was not surprised with his offerings. He noticed the not-so-surprised look on her face and he asked her, “Don’t you like the colour? I can customize it for you. Tell me what do you prefer?”Mrtyu noticed his change in tone and temper. She processed in her mind quickly and figured out that Hexa was good at tailoring in female dresses. She tried to make a cool conversation with the ghost of the designer rather dreadful dead merchant. “The colour, ahem, is quite dull and I want it brighter.”“Brighter? How about lavender or purple? (He waved his hand to change the colour of the dress) which one, pick it?” Hexa looked at her face with curious eyes.“What do I do now?” she thought with inhaling. Her silence gave Hexa rather peculiar ideas.Within a second, Hexa

Aaron processed her words and figured out the way to exit. He instructed her, "Then be his guest and end all this, Mrt. I can’t die just watching you like this or hearing your voice.”Aaron continued, “Earlier that day, we both had bigger plans for our future together. Mrt, I want you. I want you to fill my life. I want us to contribute to our family’s lineage. I want us to grow older together.” Aaron convinced her to be the guest of Hexa.Mrtyu imagined building a palace with bricks of love earlier and now after hearing his declarations of his plans that includes her, she built the roof with trust. She felt happy inside that she is finally getting a family to take care of despite being her orphan life.Yet, she asked with a little shock, "Guest of a Ghost?""Fine, I will go," Mrtyu said, with a deep exhale, and dropped herself on the ground, leaning against the wall.

“Well, detective, it’s complicated to tell exactly in words. I try to explain to you with medical terms. He is suffering from type three panic attack,” the doctor told her while holding his stethoscope in his hands.“I don’t get it, doctor. What is type three and how severe it is?” Liroza asked impatiently while Dan was approaching her.“He had a panic attack which seized him neurotically. And he has fractures in his lumbar spine section and his neck collar bone is damaged. So he is not in the position to give you the statement of what exactly happened to him last night.”“So he is alive, then.” Liroza knitted her eyebrows and expected a positive response from the doctor.“Yet, as for now, we can’t assure you anything of his survival level after his damages.”“What do you think of (sniffed) his condition? Who or how?”

After a few minutes of trying to reach her, he felt soreness in his throat. He lay on the ground and recalled the happy moments he had with her and moaned, "Mrtyu."Mrtyu was preoccupied with the happiest hours she had ever spent with Aaron in her life and moaned about how her life was turned upside down in a fraction of a second. She heard his voice and responded to him, "Ron?"When Aaron heard her voice echoing in the darkroom, Aaron sat up and tried to focus. "Mrtyu?"Mrtyu heard the voice of Aaron, yet thought that she had been hallucinating his voice in her mind. She sighed, "I wish I could hear you, Aaron.""Mrt, you are hearing me. You are not hallucinating." Aaron spoke in a calm tone."Aaron, is that you?" The tears rolled from her eyes in ecstasy at hearing his voice."Yes, I am, but are you crying right now?" Aaron asked her in a sad tone."What?" she asked and later realised that Hexa blew her eyes to jinx her fallen tears into the shape of sharp daggers over her head of A

Bella rescuedBack inside the room, Hexa watched her jump through the window and exhaled, saying, "Te compadezco.” (I pity you) and turning his head towards the bed. He burst into the room and threw Mrtyu into the bed.Mrtyu opened her eyes and found she was in the middle of some shattered sparkle. "This is what the place is like once the person is dead."She sat on the bed and was shocked to find Hexa in front of her. "Why are you here, too? Oh, yeah, I am dead, you are dead, and so I can see you."Hexa leaned over the wall and looked at her with his title head, "Encantado de conocerte de Nuevo viva."Mrtyu turned her face to her side and told herself, in a lower voice with smacked lips, "I wish I could use a language translator device."As Hexa could hear her, he translated for her, "Nice to meet you again, ALIVE." He emphasised the word "alive" to make her realise that she wasn’t dead yet.Mrtyu knitted her brows, "Again? Am I Still Alive? So I am not dead."She grunted, punching t

The cold moon rays deeply spread across the rooms of the Hotel Bluemoon. Liroza stood by the window, gazing over the fountain in the De Morte villas. Edan was sleeping on the bed when he woke suddenly. He touched his side to cuddle with Liroza when she was not found in their bed; Edan opened his eyes and searched for her.Edan found relief in finding her near the window. Liroza stood dazzling in the transparent cloth that hardly covered her naked body. Her beauty has been enhanced by the moon rays that sent lustful signals to Edan’s mind.Edan hopped from the bed and tottered over her to embrace her from behind. He twisted her blonde hair to the left, breathed her scent, and bit her earlobe to grab her attention to respond to him. He lowered his lips towards the crook of her neck with his flaming kisses.Her transparent fabric around her body appeared to be a disturbance to exhibit his hunger for her. His hand pulled the barrier of transparen
HEXA : MERCHANT OF DEMISE Chapter 33 - I pity you
The clock ticked half past midnight. The window was left open and the howling wind made the window screen move. A panting voice echoed around the room from an old man lying on his bed with disturbed sleep.He had a vision of a ferocious man with a big hammer hiding behind his back, standing behind a stoned man who was fuzzily rested on his antique red oxblood chesterfield wingback chair before the fireplace.The old man could see the wine bottle on the side table; the person was coping with his grief while the man with the hammer was spraying salt on the wounded heart of the coping man through his sinful words.Within a fraction of a second, the man with a hammer hit the man who was seated on his chesterfield chair hard. The blood of the dying man was splashed all over the walls, and the luxurious Saxony carpet was drenched in a pool of blood that flowed from the broken skull of the dying man.Like a ravening monster, his thirst for wanting

"Signorina (miss), the sun is shining brightly today; the master would kill me if you got browned." A young maid begged her lady to stay inside the walls to avoid the scorching sun."Then get murdered," says the young, gorgeous, emerald-eyed lady. "Sweltering and sweating will not deter me from going." With a singing tone, she said."Where to now, Signorina?" murmured the maid girl, concerned about her lady's wicked behaviour.The emerald-eyed girl hopped in joy, and she pulled the maid girl to whisper in her ear, with sparkles in her eyes, "Al mondo esterno" (To the outside world).She giggled and hopped to the sky-scraping walls after saying those words. Her maid kept on calling her, "Signorina, signorina-""Stop calling me Signorina," she told her without looking in her direction, busy pulling the descending climbers over the walls.The maid girl told her, with much hesitation, "I am not allowed to say your name.""Once we are in t
