Not sure I'll be getting any sleep tonight, not feeling it at all. "Yeah." I guess after everything I've learned, my mind hasn't digested the fact that it was all an act. Still, I count my blessings, I can't believe how much I despised him for protecting me with such difficulties while I only added to his burden and blamed, and cursed him.
I didn't believe it at first but it does feel like he's being truthful. We are in Miami. Apparently, we're supposed to meet the man we spoke with over the phone. He picked this city. I don't know why, but I'm glad he did. This may not be the preferred reason to travel but we're here and that's what matters. Even though Charles was not okay with the idea as he dragged his feet, he finally came around and insisted we came together.While I'm sitting in the car, my mind drifts back to events of this morning, and I unconsciously chuckle. Charles can be so extra. One minute, he's sure he doesn't want to go but the next he's waiting for us by the gate. And by us, I mean I and Jasper. I was pretty nervous about the trip but I know it is best that we trash this issue once and for all and if all goes well, I'll have the leisure of enjoying the city. I've decided to look at it like a vacation.&nb
I've pinched myself multiple times that the skin on my arm is sore and blood red, yet it's still surreal that I'm in Miami. I didn't think I was going to step foot outside the walls of that mansion, no, I didn't think I was ever going to leave that city."Diana, you'll swallow a fly if you don't close your mouth anytime soon." Charles' face is right in front of me, as he chuckles. It's not my fault that I've never left that place, no now that I think about it, it's my fault for always being clustered, am glad I decided to come on this trip, the two places I knew was the Maxwell mansion and Jasper's old house, even now I wonder how I made it out of the new place. "Your cute face surprises me everyday." He tucks my hair behind my ear and pats my head like a child. We're right outside a hotel. He has once again surprised me with reservations at this hotel before we even left th
The tingling sensation makes me feel as though my body is too small to contain me. I wake up with a piercing scream. My ears are about to fall off from the pressure and my head feels heavy. Like I've been spinning for too long, no, like it certainly wants to blow off.I can't remember the events before I fell into such a terrible slumber or the reason for the pain. Just while I was panicking, Jasper came rushing into the room, his face, like he's seen a ghost, a very scary one too. His warm embrace did nothing to quell the panic because his emotions were written all over his panic stricken face. I had to completely remind myself to breath. Thank goodness. I thought I was going to die.Despite Jasper's warm pleas and caresses o
The tension in the room was so thick, you could cut it with a knife. These boys undoubtedly had a bone of contention, details of which I'm yet to find out and it was a no brainer that Jasper didn't want his brother in the same room as he was. No one has moved a muscle since Allen stepped in. Whether it's from shock that he turned up out of the blue or suprise that he was able to locate us, I cannot tell but the bottom line is that at this moment, I wish I was anywhere but here."Look who we have here, a runaway cat." Jasper mocked. "What are you doing here, Allen?" His stern face was a clear reflection of his emotion.Jasper stood in the way to try to stop him from taking another steph. Allen sighs in disappointment and pats his brothers
Tony is a totally different person in person than the man we spoke with on the phone. He's a lot more confident, very sure of himself and also very talkative although, the kind of talkative that speaks sense or at least arouses one's curiosity with his deep knowledge of different past events. He's also very good looking for a man his age. He probably spends a good time in the gym when he's not digging out information about people. His toned body gave him out and the way he moves around with ease. Some people who have spent time in service to others would naturally be weak at this age but not Tony."Alpha, it's nothing serious. I'm just in awe of how much Miss Wilson has grown and what a fine young lady she grew into. Her parents would have been proud of her. I mean, her father used to bring her to the tower. I rem
I don't know if this Tony guy has a grudge against us or something but he surely doesn't like us. It's obvious. After telling us his true position, there was nothing left for us to do to get him to talk, and that's why we're seated here thinking of a way to get him to talk. Maybe if he wasn't so evil, I'd say he's a whole snack. Nice looking. He must be a hard worker at the gym. I bet he runs everyday. I wonder what his daily routine is or he's probably one of those lucky people who don't have to workout so hard to look good. Maybe he's just naturally hot."Diana."I turn to find Charles staring at me, looking very uncomfortable. I'm not sure what's wrong with him.
"I hate to say this but you have to go. I don't know what he's plans are but he's playing his cards right. He already has us where he wants us but it'll shock him that we are two steps ahead".When I told Charles about the meeting with Tony tonight, he didn't hesitate to say yes, although I haven't told Jasper and the others yet, I feel there's no need to tell them till the meeting is done because they'll just tag along. I know those boys. Charles proposed to come with me but that would be going against my agreement with Tony and in as much as I dislike the guy, I don't want to break my side of the bargain. I had to go there on my own no matter what.I walked inside the house as soon as Charles dropped me off only to find Tony waiti
Rather than sleeping, Charles and I sat still, pondering on the situation at hand. We couldn't come up with an answer as to what went wrong that day. Charles looked confused as hell, everything I've said including my meeting with Tony was no solution as we thought, rather it went further to confuse us. Am starting to think this is too much for us to handle, however I have to get to the bottom of this matter what it cost me.There are so many variables and we seem to have exhausted them all. I mean, two trades went down in one year, and then there's the smuggler, there's also the fact that Alpha Max was aware of all these happenings yet he did nothing about it and finally, the safe. The safe which seems to have vanished into thin air and the code that unlocks it rests with someone whom father trusted more than he did us."Come on, Diana. This doesn't make any sense to me. Why did father host two trades in one year. That was certainly out of character for a man so ar
I thought we would be separated the moment we reached the roadside, so what is he still doing walking with me, doesn't he have a wife to return to? Or oerhaps he's suspicious of me. If that's true then there won't be any chance to return to Lune, not just that but if brother finds out, i'd be in major trouble. I have to find a way out of here, should I knock his out, I can't kill him or interfere with this race. "I'll be going now, my brother must be waiting for me." I tell him. I hope he at least get the picture and leaves.I leave him behind and walk alone, trying to make it look like I at least know the way am going. "Hold on." My body subconsciously halts. No, I must have been found out. What now? I never thought they would be this smart to actually spot a god. "Would you be fine by yourself. Am not sure you know these roads by yourself, even am not sure of these roads myself, you sure you know where your way around." What? He's still caring about a stranger
I don't feel a thing except emptiness, which seemed weird coming from someone who asked her emotions to be removed. Although Lune decided not to hide the fact that I asked for my emotions and memories to be removed from me, couldn't stop me from feeling this way. I've been feeling rather empty, this feeling of emptiness was greater than the pressure of watching over the entire earth at night, which is why am seated by the moon pool, causing waves with my hand and giving light to darkness. I gotta say, the Sun god sure is doing a great job at being up all day.I don't remember much from what Lune told me, but according to earth's calendar. It's probably been three years since I left, I was told I went to earth in search of something and returned after I found it, but am not sure what it is. How could I feel so incomplete after finding it. Maybe I didn't find it, Lune didn't tell me about what it was when I woke up. No matter what I tried to do, nothing seemed to
It was supposed to be a night of memory for me, but I don't think I can make much memories with such looks on their faces. Today was supposed to be my last meal with them, but their stares are rather piercing, ugh, why the hell do I feel like am being stabbed a hundred times by them. "What?!"Hailey bangs the table so hard it almost snaps. "Cut the crab Diana, what's going on." As expected from someone as quick witted as Hailey, she guessed it in an instant. No I think they all did, is that why they have such looks on. I don't think it would be easy talking to them anymore."Haha." I laugh, it's better to avoid eye contact right now Diana, they can see right through you and emotionally blackmail you, however I still have to tell them. "Well, you see, I finally decided that am going home."The living room is awkwardly silent. It's been this way for five minuted that I could even hear the crickets outside. Ever since I tol
A loud bam filled the room, I tightly shut my eyes close at the sound of the gunshots. It's been at least thirty seconds and I haven't felt a single thing how strange. I open my eyes and find the brothers all gathered in the room with Allen who had a gun in his hand pointed at Derrick who was holding into his chest. "The hell." He screamed, at the same moment he calmed down. "Evan, Allen, Dave. You're here?" He said, he looked rather terrified after seeing them all together. Meanwhilean still panicking I felt all over my body and find nothing on me, so this isn't a dream then. I really am alive. Was it a blank, am sure I heard a gun shut, no rather two gunshots.Thank goodness they made it. The brothers who had gathered in one room gave off a tense aura. "Of course we are, the warehouse has a fucking back door and we've taken care of your friends." Allen yelled. He seems pissed off along with the others, could they had heard everything just now oh Derrick I gues
I reach the warehouse before noon and find a couple of men outside who escorts me inside, the closer I get, the angrier I feel, I wonder, just how did he fool his entire family. Finally I spot the great mastermind up ahead, he walked closer and then when we we're only a few inches apart he leaned forward and said to me, "the password." How the hell could I give him the password knowing there was a chance we might not make it out alive."You really had me fooled there Derrick, you honestly thought I would let you have the journal just like that. Let me see Jasper and Liam first." I tell him. I couldn't afford to waver or be frightened by him anymore, I had already ripped off the page before they broke in, and I discovered who he was and that was more than enough for my plan to work.He looks me in the eyes and walks closer, the closer he gets to me the more I take a step back till I reach a dead end and my back slams agains the wall. "No." He
My heart race the next instant, just what the hell do they want from me right now, I can't even keep a straight face because am mad right now. "Diana, it's me." Liam. That's unusual, Liam never visits me, not just that he never bothered to last three minutes in a conversation with me so why was he at my door right now."Come in." Whatever it's better to get this over with and fast."Good thing you weren't sleeping, we've just received news that your blood was in fact the cure. So we thought you would be having a hard time because you discovered your identity and then the virus and stuff, we would like you to know that you have our support." I stare puzzled at him, this was the first time we had a proper conversation and that was all he had to say. Well at least it's better than pretending am invisible."Thanks." Right after he walked away from my room I shut the door behind me, and certain now, I have to find out more ab
He looked paralyzed like he's seen a ghost. Does that number hold an important place in his heart, cause I just couldn't read his speechless expression. He kept mumbling something to himself, frowning and rubbing his temples, he's walked about the room three times, just what the hell is his reason. "Ah ha. Isn't that mother's birth year." Wait, his mother's birth year, and just why would father have a note with the late Alpha wife's birth year in it, could it be a coincidence that all this happened. No with all these crazy stuff going on in this family I doubt anything is just a coincidence anymore.The birth year of Derrick's mother as the password to a safe well I thought we only had one safe, could there be another one I didn't know of, a safe... A safe... "Wait a minute, there is one safe we don't know the password to, the code to the safe. The safe at the Maxwell mansion." I tell him. Quickly we get into the car and drive all the way to the mansion.
"Why did you go down." I've never seen Lune this mad. No one dared say a word to him until we were spoken to, not even me, I knew this was what would befall me yet, I was still curious about that boy and went down to help him, brother must have arrived sooner than I had expected and found out."He needed help." I tell him."Anna, Stars, Lune's, and Luna's are not meant to interfere with the mud people, it's against the rules, how many times must I tell you this." Rules, rules, rules, I've heard that so many times, am always limited by rules telling me what and what not to do."I went as a human not as a Luna, besides am yet to be a Luna so right now I hold no value, that boy needed my help.""No he didn't Anna and stop with the childish acts, do you know how old you are, you're no longer a child whereas he's only twelve, humans and Stars age differently especially beings like us." True, w
To think he was running away from the same person he tried to kill a few minutes ago, and pulling me like I was a bag of floor makes me feel annoyed. Still I could hear the growls coming from behind and people's cries, I don't even know what's going on. The next thing I know I was carried in his arms, Nicholas speed increased as he ran without looking back. I keep hearing heavy footsteps coming from the other side of the wall, in no less than three seconds after I heard the footsteps the walls came tumbling down, someone had just ran through a wall. Nicholas stopped, and handed me over to someone, "take her and run, and no matter what, don't let go." I thought he wanted us to die together a while ago. I have to do something, my legs are still numb, if I want to escape this I have to get my body to work again. Before Nicholas subordinate starts running I caught a glimpse of the terrifying being they were scared of. Jasper was in his wolf form, this was my first
