2024-10-29 19:42:56Odin followed as the little human girl took her to the balcony of the house. There was no light except the reflection of the moonlight. There were two seats as well and she sat on one.
Odin grunted, what kind of foolishness was this? So would Ichabod actually turn him into a baby sitter in this night? He thought of using his power on the little girl to send her to sleep immediately but...
“I’m so sad Ichabod.” The girl whimpered and this stopped him from doing what he wanted to do.
“If you are sad, talk to your mother not me.” He murmured.
“My mum doesn’t like my dad.” She said, more like talking to herself. “If he still doesn’t show up at the Halloween party, I am going to be laughed at again. I can’t ask my mum to dress up like my dad again. It’s embarrassing.” She cried. “For days I couldn’t even do anything in class without being laughed at. I hate this stupid Halloween.”
Odin was barely listening to her, instead, he was thinking of how he would l

The light that came on disrupted his sleep and he opened his sleepy eyes, forgetting where he was until he saw Harmony looking at him in shock.“What are you doing Ichabod?”Ichabod stood up immediately and trying not to show how embarrassed he was.“You are really taking your job seriously. First, the toilet thing and now, you are baby-sitting my daughter. You shouldn’t. Seriously.” Harmony said, walking to where he daughter lay.“Forgive me. I must have slept off.” He mumbled the words together.Harmony said nothing but instead proceeded to wake her daughter up. Meanwhile Ichabod was about taking his leave when Harmony said. “Is that my tab?”He turned around and realized he had left the tab on the floor. It must have dropped when he slept off....when Odin slept off. Wait, Odin slept off?“What is my tab doing beside you Ichabod?” Harmony demanded, looking a bit displeased.Ichabod was tongue-tied. “Well, Ier...”

Well, Ichabod had been getting ready for this question. “Well, I’m from here and there.” He replied with a chuckle but Harmony only scoffed. “YourCV says you are from Baltimore, but I’m just curious, why Nigeria? Why body guard?”He smiled. “Well, I will answer you if you answer me this.” He said.“What?” She asked, giving him that sweet smile that made him fall in love with her centuries ago.“Why did you hire me?”**Harmony was surprised when he asked that. That was really a serious question. “Well, I...I don’t know. There was something about you that drew me to you...” she said, trying not to sound awkward. “You have this mystery surrounding you and I got intrigued.”“Well, let’s say that was why I came to Nigeria, to find you....and to protect you...”Harmony knew he was probably joking about this and wasn’t serious about saying all these. Maybe he was toying with her but the sincerity in his

“Yea. I just remembered I found something in my room when I woke up this morning, I don’t know how it got there. Did you come to my room last night? Is this yours?”He swallowed hard, unable to concentrate on his driving...“Idiot, just tell her a lie!” Odin snarled in his head.“Urm, yea, Ah...” He inhaled deeply, lying was not his thing really. While he stuttered, Harmony’s phone rang. Thank Goodness!He couldn’t believe how sweaty he was within how many minutes.“You are a so dumb! Seriously! You are her bodyguard! You could say you went to her room to check up on her when you heard noises in the room. Then you forgot it there. Ish! Do I need to do everything for you?”“Shut up Odin! It was your clumsiness that caused it in the first place!”“Yea? Bite me?”“Um, excuse me, Ichabod, are you talking to someone?” Harmony asked, looking at him in the mirror from the back seat.Odin chuckled, “caught i

Ichabod sipped from the wine in his hand. He had tried calling Adam but the noise of the party was so much he could barely hear what Adam was saying. How in the world was he going to catch himself?Different people graced the party, most of them were people he had seen their pictures with Harmony in the house. Talking of Harmony, she was standing with some other people as they took several group pictures.He checked the time, it was some minutes to ten in the night. The time was long gone. He caught Harmony’s signaling to him to come over and he immediately went to her. She excused herself from the group and walked up to meet him, she looked worried.“What is it?” He asked as he got close enough to be heard by her.“I’ve been trying to call Michael, his lines are not going through. I’ve sent several messages to him as well, he didn’t pick. I am so worried. I tried calling Debby, Tracy’s teacher, she is not picking either.”“Calm down. Does your daughter

The passageway was quiet but there were lights everywhere. There were six doors straight down so he walked to the last one. He listened attentively enough to pick the sound of Tracey’s sobs. He knocked.“Tracey, it’s Ichabod, open.”The sobbing stopped for a while but no reply.“I am so sorry for what your father did honey. But....”“He promised me Ichabod, Mum also thought that he was gonna come. Everyone will laugh at me again...” she sobbed.“I hate my daddy too you know.”She stopped sobbing, “why?”“If you open up, I will tell you.”For a while, there was no movement but the door opened eventually and her little face came out. She was already dressed in a white ball gown, white shoes and in her hand was a magic wand and a tiara was on her head.“Oh my God! You are such a beautiful angel....”She smiled, “I’m a beauty, silly.”Ichabod laughed and squatted to reach her height. “This gown is too beautiful to be wast

When he finally brought her down.Tracy turned to hug him tightly....“Thank you so much dear beast...you are the best...I love you...” She said, kissing him on the forehead.‘Tracy!” Tracy looked up only to see her mother smiling and running towards them...“Mum!” She cried for joy and ran towards Harmony who was finding her way through the crowd....“I saw you up dear, you looked so beautiful...you are beautiful. I am so proud of you...”“Mum did you see Ichabod! He was so good....”“Yes darling I saw him, I saw you too. I am so proud of you.” Harmony said, showering her daughter with kisses before standing up to see Ichabod but then he was gone. “He was just here… where did he go?” Tracy asked her mum, a little bit disappointed that her beast was gone. Harmony couldn’t understand as well. “Come on darling, maybe he needed to remove his costume.” She said, taking her daughter by the hand and leading her towards th

Harmony felt a sudden movement and opened her eyes, to her dismay, she was the only one in the room, and Ichabod had disappeared. She flushed in embarrassment and adjusted on her seat. She had been so stupid.What happened to her? “Damn it!”She stood up immediately and rushed to her bed room, closing the door behind her. She flung on her bed, biting her lips. “Girl why did you do that?”How in hell was she going to fix this? What exactly happened to her? Just like that, she had made herself look so stupid. What would Ichabod think of her? That she wanted to take advantage of him? But, she sighed and sat upright. The moment was so perfect, she had never felt so close to anyone like that, not even Michael. What Ichabod did for her and her child was special to her but still, she shouldn’t have made an attempt to kiss him. Even though she didn’t actually kiss him, it was like kissing him and him pulling away. Oh boy! That was a blow!

He watched her from where he stood, in the darkness. She was busy going through the catalogue of chemicals in the store. She wore a heavy pair of glasses which seemed to be covering the majority of her face. There was a torch in her hand, which she used for light.Some minutes later, she lifted two tubes from the catalogue and brought them to a table. On the table was something that looked like a machine or something Odin has never seen before. There was a little tray under the machine on which she poured some of the content and then she adjusted it and brought her face closer so she could take a look at it through two pointy things. She straightened up as her phone rang and then she removed the gloves in her hand.**“Hello father, what’s up? I’m still there. No, just had to run a quick check through some things….okay, I know it’s late. I will be careful. Yes I will be back soon.” She said before ending the call. While she put the phon

**Hi Guys, so I realized I made a mistake in the last three chapters talking about Vivian instead of Rashidat but that has been cleared. Apologies about that. It has been corrected*"So, Harmony and Ichab are married?"Rashidat nodded.They were at a restaurant after leaving the psychic's place. With the blood that dripped into his mouth while unconscious, he had been cured of his vampire spirit and was now human. Rashidatkept on looking at him, smiling. She was too happy."If you keep on looking at me like that, I might be forced to make love to you right here in front of all these people."Rashidat blushed and looked away."It's just really difficult to finally believe that you are here," she replied.Odin smiled. "Don't worry. I am here to stay but you will need to find a way to explain to your father."Rashidat sighed. "He would definitely faint after hearing it."They both chuckled.

Rashidat watched as the woman knelt down, holding the soaked cloth in between her palms. She was positioned in a way that as she held the cloth, the blood that dripped from it, dropped on the dead man's forehead and all the way to his lips.She threw her head back and began to chant in a foreign language.It started really softly at first, but then it intensified as her voice grew stronger and louder. The candlelight began to flicker.The woman did not stop. As she continued, Rashidat thought she saw the shadow of someone bypassed her...her heart ceased. She intensified her gaze and realized it was nothing.As the woman continued. Another shadow ran across the room and a mighty wind started, scattering everything in the room.Amidst this noise, Rashidat began to hear lots of strange voices, some were loud, some were just whispers. She couldn't pick anything but she heard a faint voice, calling, her name."He's calling my name!" she sho

"Here is it," she said, dropping the piece of cloth on the psychic's table.The lady raised her brows. "He really likes you to have visited you," she stated and picked up the cloth.Rashidat sat on the couch. She could feel a throbbing at the side of her neck that was tied with a scarf. She had tried not to make her father suspect anything and had decided to cover it up that morning."May I see it?" asked the psychic.Rashidat frowned at first and then later untied the scarf. The lady stood up and walked closer to him. She bent slowly in front of her and turned her head sideways to inspect the bruises."Hmm...he's lucky you are looking out for him. He's drifting slowly but the blood you gave him was enough to make him last longer for us to do what we are supposed to do. ""What do you mean by drifting?" Vi asked, tying her scarf back as the psychic walked back her seat."The underworld is a terrible place. There are stages where some

That night, as usual, Rashidat was waiting in the room, waiting for him. Her father had retired for the night so it was just her in the darkness. She had purposely put off the light while she waited for the wall-clock to chime 12:AM.While she paced, lots of doubts began to find a way into her mind...what if he never showed?All of a sudden, a strange breeze filled the room, causing lots of things on the desk to clatter to the floor."Rashidat"His voice gave her goosebumps and she turned around to take a look at him. He was sitting on her bed. She walked towards the switch to put on the light but in a flash, he was he pulled her away. It was so sudden that her breath caught. The next thing she knew was she was on the bed while he was standing close to her."Do not put on the light," he growled."Why?" she inquired."Becuase," he said quietly. "I do not want you to see me like this..."She frowned and stood up. She walked

“I really can’t believe what you’re saying,” Vivian said. Rashidat had gone to her house the next day to recount all that happened the previous night. Although she didn’t go into full details, she only told her what was important.

She couldn’t believe her eyes as she walked closer to the mirror…She could feel her heart rising and falling as she reached a hand towards the mirror…to touch him but she only touched the cold surface of the glass. She hurried to put on the light but then he was gone. Now, she was confused…Odin!”“Hello, my lovely,” came the familiar voice very close to her ear but she still couldn’t see him.
Ichabod Chapter 52
Rashidat sat in front of the mirror as the clock struck some minutes to twelve, quietly smoking her cigar. Ever since Ichabod and Harmony left, she had always been doing this, hoping that somehow, Odin would appear to her. She knew it was crazy and her father knew this as well. Still, she was hoping that somehow, Odin would show up. It was a

Pleasure rippled through her, something deep inside of her felt ravenous. She drank him in. Thousands of butterflies dipped and dived in her stomach. She closed her eyes so tight colors exploded behind her lids.He pulled nearly all the way out of her and then pressed in.A quiver of anticipation shot through her, wrenched her passion higher yet until the feeling built deep inside her and she reached for it. He stopped all of a sudden.“No, no!” she whined in protest.

Chapter 41That night, Harmony settled in her bed, waiting expectantly for her husband as she looked at the ring on her left finger. It’s been two days since they left Africa and were settled in Michigan. They had also decided to get married and had gone to a court to profess their love for each other. Everything was just perfect.Ichab walked out of the bathroom, with water dripping on the floor while he picked up a towel on a
