...so definitely, the risk of revealing the secret was slim...____And who knows whether someone passed by, but sure enough if someone had definitely passed then Zeres and Zeke including Quincy would have sensed it due to their high reactive sense. It was easier to differentiate which is humans, Vampires, witches and even the demons. Also with their profound hearing skill they could tell which is which by just listening to their heartbeats so sensing humans was no biggie. Zeres raised his head slightly as he pondered about what Ezekiel had informed him about king Gale. He seeks my presence. Huh! What's the rush? Tilting his head a bit to the side he glanced over at Ezekiel who stood alongside Quincy with a smirk excluding his pretty face and Zeres who saw that devilish smirk being pulled by him gazed at this man Ezekiel with something glowing in his eyes. The little light dancing in Zeres crimson eyes was nothing less than a mere boredom and his mind went to Gale again as his eyes gle
Security!!!The receptionist voice was alarming because the extent at which she had been blubbering about the so called icon she was looking for was getting every member of the high desk paranoid.Abigail's eyes widened at the sudden call she made, she can't let the securities drag her out or probably, ban her from ever stepping foot into the hotel block. So she quickly gave an apologetic look at the receptionist who's hands went on her hips akimbo."Listen ma'am, I don't give up the contacts of our customers neither is their information given up. Besides the man you seek for didn't leave his contact so forget about him ever being your icon. What is wrong with you?! Do I have to spell this out to you all day?!Abigail knew how much stress she had indeed caused every member of the staff so she couldn't do any more than that, but she still made sure to argue her about some certain things related to her prince. It's been over four hours and Abi couldn't just stay there arguing, she knew w
"Don't shout at me!" Joshua yelled frantically facing the girl who's pupils kept dilating in anger, her expression was throwing off the aftermath of her premeditated wrath. "Next time when you go about telling me about how you made my sister kill herself think twice of the consequences" "... I do advice that you watch your back cause am not letting you go free for what you did! Joshua laughed out loud, the momentum thrown off balance as his sturdy laughter reverberated the empty hall and in an instant he gripped Abi's jaw with his strong hand making her groan in pain from the impact "Listen lil girl, don't go about challenging someone capable of swallowing you whole ...so when next you think of challenging me you think twice about it fool! He shoved her that she nearly lost her balance by a fraction of an air miss. Abigail almost saw herself descending down the grand stairs of the hotel block in an undeniable call of instant death, heavily breathing she pulled herself off the danger
Abigail stood up immediately still staring at him, or was she hallucinating him on broad daylight? This question was causing a heavy turmoil disorienting her whole being. Him? She asked herself just make sure she wasn't seeing things. Sometimes when she hallucinates, she realized that asking herself some questions about whatever it was she was hallucinating about and once that was done, the hallucinations would end up falling off her dainted imagination but at this point this man she thought she was hallucinating was ever still beautiful before her not turning into weave of Sparks and disappearing like it does to other silly imaginations she had had before so she kept blinking unable to believe that he was really before her."Here take the water!" His voice was solemn with a tiny bit of hoarseness in it hitting Abigail's core to the extent that she even found herself screaming loudly for him to grab and kiss her. Just what went wrong? His voice alone alone had kindled some insane flam
...Ok fine, what do you want?" Abi asked....***Zeres smiled at that one question he had been aimlessly waiting for to stretch out of her lips. He knew that definitely she must ask him that question but he wanted nature to take it's course without him putting any pressure on her. So he realized that for him to be victorious, he had to wait for her reply and finally the reply he waited so patiently for was finally here now he knew he had to make good use of it. His smile flashed with something deathly which sent shivers down her spine, but Abigail was determined to follow this man, for an icon or for something else, she doesn't care."Let's go to the car and talk" Zeres said simply as he backed her, about to leave but he halted in his tracks when he heard her stop him."Hold on..."Zeres turned to face the girl who suddenly lowered her gaze. Zeres thick lashes fluttered in his drowning and blinding stare which almost turned Abi's core inside out he was so hellbent on finding out why th
When Zeres offered her a calm and composed smile, Abi couldn't help but feel alarmed. What if he's up to no good? What thoughts are storming in those brains of his? Abigail kept staring at his beautiful face, not able to look away. He had already asked her to tread in hell with him, besides what harm would it cause to just... follow him? She wanted him for an icon, and he wanted a favor in return for that obviously, the favor was to be with him. Couldn't he have proposed to her if he felt he had a thing for her, instead of using backstage actions. Abigail had her mom, Claire Timothy and she must return to her or else she would get her worried for absolutely no reason. Abi realized that she was the only one Claire had now after Cassia and Henry's death! Abigail rolled her eyes, of a truth it was difficult. She could have just said 'No worries I can find some other icon somewhere' but she didn't that was why she decided to swindle him. Even Zeres didn't mind being swindled by her,
Zeres Hades walked in with Abi into a small self contain house. It's outer view was a little bit different from what he knew as luxury. In fact, middle class families was way better than this and to think that she behaved as though she lived a life of luxury. The house had few steps leading in and they simply walked in with Zeres expression not changing at all. Abigail noticed those facts. Ms. Claire Timothy was sitted by the fireplace as she closed her eyes deep in thoughts.There were already deep worry lines on her forehead portraying that, she was concerned about Abi's whereabouts. Abi didn't want her to worry that much. Plus she still had to tell a few lies in other to be allowed to leave. "Mom!" Claire snapped her head from where she was seated and her gaze softened the moment she saw her standing with a guy. 'Did she just bring in my future son-in-law?'Claire smiled and stood up immediately. She readied the chairs which surprised Abi for a while. The last time she had ste
Abi and Zeres walked back to the car just parked by the street side. Abigail took her time to gawk at the Rolls-Royce. It was looking so elegant, it had something like metal plate or armor foil plus corresponding vanadium encased just to prevent bullet from passing through the car. Or just say, the dark vehicle was absolutely bulletproof. "Get in will you?" Abigail opened the door to the backseat and sat in while Zeres went the other way round to find himself seated at the driver's seat. Elle stared at him with concern."What took you so long? I mean, I was practically waiting. Oh and, King Gale called my line. He had put you through an ultimatum." "Oh really, Ultimatum? Why didn't he call me directly to pass the ultimate decision, why call you? He's a fool." "Seriously uncle Zeres, you ought to take this precariously. Gale Cyrus is a really powerful man." "I can handle him. I will be going with Abigail to him, I can't wait to face Lynn once more." Elle smiled for some time and
The car parked in the driveway of Zeres luxurious structure there in Divon. Who knew that Quesa once stood under the new roads built to represent Zeres which he had called Divon. The monarch about ruling had to do with the perspective whereby the ruler would name a town with his own reign. Late King Cyrus, or should I say former king Cyrus had done so and had called that place Quesa. Who knew how many names this particular land had got to bear. But as long as the new ruler is in charge, the old names would be forgotten for as long as even the age of the gods themselves. The name Divon was now practically soaring high with pride. Abigail stepped down from the car her eyes ogling the beautiful place. She even lost herself to the beauty and started going in without even letting Zeres lead her in. Zeres himself just shrugged and turned to Kai. “Kai, don't let your guard down. You're the CEO so, prepare to leave tomorrow. You might decide when you want to show up at the empire but do ma
Abigail directed Zeres where he should go because right now, they were heading straight to her home so she would prefer giving them directions than calling out the local district for them. And then finally after a rough drive, Zeres pulled over in a park area. Zeres and Abi stepped down while Ezekiel and Kai remained inside because obviously, whatever they were about to do in there doesn't concern them so they were only minding their business. Abi turned to face Zeres and then exhales. “I hope what you are saying about me is true. Because, my mom hates me coming home with men.” “Really?” Zeres just sounded calm as he made that statement and Abi sighed. They both walked into a mansion. Though it was old and ancient, but it still looked moderate and up to standard. The first thing that welcomed their view was the woman sitting by the fireplace, her eyes closed as her forehead had worry lines. She knew that Abi had gone to set up the festival but, shouldn't she be home by now? Clair
Zeres was upset about the scene Elle created when all he did was to shield her from every embarrassment even in terms of Abi’s anger. Sometimes, he would prefer to scold her in private than when she would be with her friends and now, this was the second time she was doing this. The first time, she had humiliated Abi by setting her up saying that she stole her phone when Abi had done nothing and now this. She had indirectly insulted him by just raising her voice so it bothered him to the point that his blood seems to be boiling hotter than a fiery sea. “Relax, as you have said, that is how she had been. She doesn't take up corrections but would still want to ask for your forgiveness, just don't work yourself out due to her uncanny behavior.” Abi said and Zeres sighed. “She always does this. I have warned her countless times without number but the stubborn girl in her refused to listen. Is this just how I would continue? To take care of someone who would never listen to what I say? Y
Abi and Zeres stood up as the lantern festival was coming to an end. Abi wanted to take him to her mom as per his request. Things had been going smoothly and Abi herself was happy about it. The Viscarrian Lieutenant would have gotten a lot to tell her if the festival had been ruined somewhat. So she was glad at the least. Abi noticed two handsome men join them in the movement and she smiled internally. Somehow, they looked so familiar. Just as they continued their journey, they bumped into Elle. Yes, her face was contorted with an awful grimace so Abi just had to stare back. “Oh, hi princess it's you again.” Abi said, her voice so sonorously deep and gorgeous as she spoke. Elle just stared at Abi without blinking until Zeres broke the stalemate. “Isabelle. . .” Elle froze. He was getting at it again. He was going upset due to what had transpired. Of course, she knew the repercussions whenever Zeres used her full name. “You knew about Abi and didn't bother to tell me didn't you
Elle who now had decided to sit up and find Zeres because the floating lantern was now ongoing. Due to her flaw, she had restrained herself but no more. Grace and Silvia looked up to see Elle leaving. “Isabelle, where to. . . I mean, you have a poor night vision. Don't you think you have to relax?”“Well, remember Zeres, I have to find him. I have to soar the paper lantern with him.” “Oh, uh. . . about that, I had seen him with someone else.” The moment Grace uttered the question, Elle felt as though her whole world just came to a standstill. “Hold on, with who?” Grace then stuttered. “Uh, I um yeah it was Abigail. Am so sorry Isabelle, I didn't want to get you stressed this period when you were pretty excited about so many things.” “Why didn't you tell me Gracie. Did you just. . . oh my goodness you just ruined my festival did you know. Wait. . . you're lying.” Elle suddenly smiled and Grace looked over at Elsa and then back at Elle. “No Elle, am serious.” “Ahhh!” Elle scr
The moment Kai tasted his blood cloth, he pulled out. And then, he carefully studied Ezekiel's face only to see it still calm. Then Ezekiel pulled his hands off and waved them only to have the cut close up as though it had not even been cut in the first place. Kai then looked at Cole and a wicked smile flashed on his face. Now that he was filled with enough blood that would sustain him as long as he doesn't use his abilities to that extreme at least, he would be able to cause icy spike prison once more and this time around, furl it in such a way that not even Azriel could crash out of it. Cole and Azriel looked at themselves before Cole turned to face Blake. The next minute, they turned their back to leave only to see Ezekiel just ahead of them as though saying that they would not leave without a fight. Ezekiel scanning Kai's face, he planned on giving them each the same injuries inflicted on Kai. Plus that dreadful push which got him colliding with the rock. Ezekiel had seen it all
“Oh, shit! Oh shit!”Kai cursed under his breath. Everything was going all wrong. Who knows, Ezekiel wouldn't be early enough to come to his rescue even before those wicked and vile brothers of his come to fetch him. Why is his life always tends to end up in bad luck? Mostly, his blood control hasn't enhanced to the point of him being able to control vastly how his abilities spent them so he realized that he was screwed at this point. Immediately, Kai spotted Cole from afar and his heart leaped in fear which crawled all the way to circulate his body. Cole, wasn't he just a distance away so all of a sudden, he was looming just a few meters away from him. Good lord, his eyes was just a menace, his pupils had bended to slits and now had an angular curve which portrays that he was about to unleash his beast mode. “What do you say, should I go ahead and rip you apart or you come with me?” For some reason, Kai kept glancing behind him and then back to face Cole. In less than few more mi
Kai was then left speechless the moment Azriel burst out of the ice prison with his body which weighs a ton due to his own ability. Of course, this was a big problem because if Azriel could break out of his ice prison, then there was no way he could stall them and then run away. His older brothers we're faster than he was so they would catch up with him if he decides to bolt out this instance. He was obviously no match for them and he troubled him to that extent whereby there would be no possible solution to this problem. Just, how could he have allowed them to fool and trick him to this point. He was a vampire for crying out loud so why treat him as a slave. Besides, that one icy spikes created by him had drained a lot or blood and doing it again over an over might drain him completely of his reserves so he had rather think wisely about this and find a way to get out of Stretch Streets without being caught up by these maniacs. “Kai dear, I can see the outbursts of power you had jus
Kai who was engrossed in a conversation with Grace suddenly had a phone call. “Hey, uh excuse me. I might have to take this call. It's important.” “No problem, have fun. See you some other time.” Grace said and Kai winked at her. Watching her leave, his phone rang once more and he left as he placed the phone on his ears. “Talk to me.” . . .Kai was running, his speed activated, his expression dark. But somehow, he didn't get to run with must of the speed in him and that is because, the crowd is still much at the festival so there was absolutely no way for him to run at such great speed. The person who had called him had only wanted him to be in Viscarria as soon as possible and only his speed now would help. What in the hell, he couldn't believe that his mother was on the brink of death and that she wanted to see him. Cole had phoned him and Kai couldn't help but run. Anatasha was his mother. She was struck with a mild stroke after their retirement from the throne and right now
