Vivian turned her attention back to Gwen after staring at Grey in anger as he left with Mia in his arms. "Did I not just give you an order?" She demanded.
Gwen stared hard at her. "I will not be the person to do such despicable thing. You do not belong up there, in the alpha's room. I'll advise you to return back to your father's house," Gwen retorted."What outrageous audacity you have, you little omega. How dare you speak to the elder's daughter in such a manner? Have you no fear of what my father can do?" She demanded in anger."He can do nothing, Vivian. You both are just toothless bulldogs, raving without actions," Grey replied before Gwen could say anything as he walked down the stairs.Vivian was horrified at his words as she stared at him descending the stairs. "You should not say words like that to the woman carrying your child," she said to him and Gwen snickered and looked away.Grey got to where Vivian was, and his height toweGwen jolted out of her sleep as perspiration dotted on her forehead. She gulped hard as she looked around, heaving in perplexity. What's going on? She asked herself.She placed her hand on chest and tried to steady her breathing. Why does she feel so suffocated? Why does it feel like everything she just dreamt about was real? And why the connection too? She wondered.She placed her head back on the pillow, her eyes still open and unable to return back to sleep. It had all been a dream, but yet, the dream felt like a reality.•Lightning struck across the pale gloomy sky as thunder rumbled through the heavens. The fire burst around the house spreading tiny sparks of flames everywhere. The house was falling apart as the fire licked through the woods.Alyssa could see smoke rising through the chimney as she panicked. "Come on, let's go," Verne said as he held her and they ran towards the backdoor.They got out of the house
He was too weak to defend her or himself, but he used himself as a body shield to protect her from the multiple arrows that were aimed towards her. He stood in front of her, unmoving, as the clan released the arrows and they pierced into his body, and he fell on his knees."No, please, no," Alyssa sobbed as she fell beside him. He cupped her face and smiled sadly. "In every life, I'll find you," he said to her and with that he slumped to the ground.Alyssa screamed and it was deafening as it echoed in the trees. Maya and Grey were standing there throughout the whole scenery.|||Maya and Grey opened their eyes at once as they could still feel the connection they had in the dream. "You were in my dream," Maya finally spoke. Grey's hand covered hers. "No, we had one dream. We were in the same dream," he corrected her. He squeezed her hand. "I told you I'll find you in every life," he added with a small smile.She sm
No, please, no," Alyssa sobbed as she fell beside him. Another arrow pierced through his skin and she looked in horror as she saw who the person was.Grey shuddered as he cupped her face and smiled sadly. "In every life, I'll find you," he said to her and with that he slumped to the ground.Alyssa screamed and it was deafening as it echoed in the trees. Maya and Grey were standing there throughout the whole scenery, looking horrified.Alyssa looked over at the demon clan that had just killed her husband and then there was, Elijah, his . He had struck the arrow that killed Verne.•Maya and Grey opened their eyes at the same time and Maya heaved. "It was Eli. Eli is responsible for our separation," she said in shock.Grey closed his eyes and thought mentally. He recalled how Eli had been against him getting married to Maya right from day one and had brought out outrageous rules, just to get her out of the house.Grey
"Do not start what you cannot finish, Maya," Vivian said, her blood boiling with rage and her venomous eyes glaring hard at Maya.Maya equally stood her ground and was unmoved by the deadly aura radiating from Vivian's body. She snickered. "Believe me, Vivian, you can do nothing. You have tried to hurt me in the past and have failed miserably. This time around, it will be no difference," she replied.Vivian got up on her feet and advanced towards Maya. Maya stood up from her chair, ready to brace whatever was coming. But, she had one thing in mind. To protect her baby. As Vivian got closer to her, Maya could feel something in her stomach kick. She placed her hand on her stomach. Was it not too early for the baby to kick? She wondered, until the kick hit her more like a pain, sharper than the first one. She let out a gasp.Vivian stopped and sneered. "I have not even done what's in my mind and you're already in pains," she mocked.Gwen held Maya. "
"Who are you and how did you get in here?" Maya asked him in perplexity as she stared at him.He had a faint smile evident on his lips as he looked at her. Grey walked out of the bathroom and equally saw the man.He raised a brow and as the man turned to look in his direction, Grey remembered him immediately. "It's been a long time, Verne," the man said and Grey stared at him."Should I say the pleasure is mine? Xander?" Grey inquired.Maya narrowed her brow as she wondered what was going on. Xander Chuckled. "Perhaps," he replied as he looked at Maya and saw the confused look on her face. "Forgive my manners, Alyssa. I'm Xander, the news bearer of the heavens," he introduced.She knitted her brows together. "The news bearer I know is Hermes," she responded."Over the centuries, he has been changed," Xander responded."Then, how do you know Grey?" She asked.Xander looked over at Grey and smiled. "Grey and I hav
"What?" Maya exclaimed softly, unable to believe what she was hearing. She did not recall that particular sin in her past life. She never did commit it. It was a lie that was spread out in the heavens that she never got to know who said it. "I never committed such an outrageous sin," she said to him."How is it possible to overthrow the heavenly emperor?" Grey asked as he stared at Xander. "Does he not say he's the high and mighty?" He scoffed.Xander ignored the both of them as he continued to list out Maya's sins in the heavens. He had only a short limited time with them at the moment. "The twelfth sin, you went against your own people for a demon king and the last sin, is you getting pregnant for Verne, which is the key tool that has set this Apocalypse in motion," he finished off.Grey stared at Xander with a puzzling look on his face. "What do you mean by getting pregnant for me? Is it in the past?" He inquired.Xander shook his head. "It's n
Grey and Athon arrived at the demon world and immediately Grey saw the ancient demon house, memories filled his head. The house had been rebuilt already."Who else knows that I'm alive?" Grey asked."Almost everyone in the clan. But, it's a rumor not everyone believes," Athon replied.Grey walked into the house and Athon followed. Everything in the house seemed so familiar as he recalled memories of him and Maya in this place. He recalled the pack members setting the house on fire."Who built this place again?" He inquired."We all did, my Lord. After your death and first reincarnation, we had hopes that you would come back again and rebuilt the house," Athon explained."You all turned against me and killed me. Here you are claiming innocence," Grey said to him.Athon fell down flat on his face. "My Lord, accept my sincere apologies. We were manipulated. Everyone knows that darkness and light cannot be together, and you
"They tried to kill me before," Maya reminded him.He let out a sigh. "I know, but it seems like they're ready to make amends," he replied."Will they really try to make amends once they find out about the apocalypse?" She inquired as she stared at him. "Once they find out that our union will be the end of them and that the baby we're expecting is the main key that set this Apocalypse in motion, they will not hesitate to harm our child," she added."It may be different this time," he said to her."Different?" She snickered. "I cannot count the amount of times they wanted me dead. I still do not know how I ended up being dead. I do not trust them," she replied."Maya," "I am not ready to prove myself worthy, Grey. You told me yourself that I do not need to prove my worth to anyone," she said to him."I'm not asking you to. I'm only telling you what transpired between Athon and I," Grey explained."I'm worried ab
Maya was rushed over to the salutary who attended to her while the rest of the pack house were in a frenzy. ** Five days later ***Grey held Maya's hand, his eyes not leaving her face as he hoped and prayed that she would open her eyes soon. Gwen was sitting at the opposite side of the bed, with her hands clasped in prayers. She has already told Grey all about Vivian. She had been the instigator of the lie that spread out in the heavens, just to get rid of Maya.It's been five days since Maya was in coma and she feared for her life. Grey had never left Maya's side since she was brought into the salutary's cabin. He was disoriented and too worried about her to worry about himself.He prayed fervently, every now and then for her to open her eyes. He prayed to whoever he hoped would answer. The Salutary had no idea if Maya would ever wake up, but yet, Grey did not lose hope.His heart, body and soul was wrenched in pain and the pain of losing Maya and the baby, hurt him the more.All of
"I didn't tell you who I am. How did you know?" Grey asked the witch."Who doesn't know the legendary Dark emperor who has now reincarnated into an alpha? I know you too well and I know what brought you here," she said. She had white streaks in her raven hair.Grey stared at her and waited for her to continue. "You're here concerning the apocalypse and the possible solution to it," she said and Grey nodded. "The ancestors have told me of your coming already," she added."You have been told all your life that light and darkness do not go hand in hand. It is an unbalanced force of nature, but you've been told lies all along," she said and they all stared at her in amazement except from Grey who was shocked."Light and darkness go together, alpha. That's why the mystical lake was placed in the demon world to prove that even the purest streak of light can be found in darkness. The child said to be born to initiate the apocalypse, is the wrong prophecy. The child is being born to unite the
"All these, are the reasons why I was hostile to Maya. I could not tell her about it and that was why I was being subtle in our separation until maybe I get a solution to it all," Grey said."Have you found anything?" Zing asked.Grey shook his head. "I went to meet the heavenly emperor. Someone stole the ancient book about the mystical lake in the demon world. The book holds invisible writings on how to merge the three worlds together using the lake as a connection. What this person is not aware of is that, this could destroy everything," he explained further."Who is this person?" Zing asked."I do not know. The heavenly emperor is pretending not to know. He only told me that the Heavenly mirror and the staff of light are tools in causing this destruction and these two properties of heaven are missing," Grey said.Zing narrowed his eyes. "They're with Maya," he replied."Not anymore. They were taken away from her," Grey said.
As soon as she was gone and out of his sight. Grey mounted the stairs. He got into the study room and in a fierce anger, he threw away every thing laying idly on the table over to the floor.He groaned in pain and hurt as he flung the desk in disarray. With that done, he crumbled to the floor, finding it hard to breathe as short gasped of painful tears gathered in his eyes and threatened to surface.•"Maya, you don't have to go. This can be settled," Gwen said to Maya in a pleading voice, outside the pack gate.Maya shook her head. "This cannot be settled, Gwen. I believe in Grey a lot and I do love him, but, this is the last straw that I can take. I do not know what has gotten into him, but, I cannot handle it any longer," she replied in a tear filled voice."Maya," Gwen began to say pitifully so she could stay, but Maya stood her ground, declining to stay back in the pack house.Just then, Zing showed up. "What'
Vivian is taken to the salutary by Grey while Maya still stood speechless for what has just happened. She could hardly believe her eyes. Can a push cause a miscarriage? She pondered. But, if she had not done that, she would have been the one on the ground with blood flowing down her legs.Grey got to the salutary's cabin and instructed the salutary to take attend to Vivian urgently. "Grey," Vivian called him through gasps as he turned to leave.He turned to her. "The salutary will attend to you. I'll be back," he said and with that, he walked out of the cabin and headed back to the pack house.Gwen walked down the stairs and saw Maya frozen in a spot. She was puzzled. "Maya?" She called her attention and Maya turned to look at her with an horrified look on her face.Gwen was shocked by this until she noticed the small stain of blood on the floor. She became confused as she approached her friend. "What happened?" She asked her.M
"Who is this person?" Grey asked him.Heavenly emperor stared at him. "It's for you to find out," he replied."Do not give me that, emperor. You're the heavenly emperor, right? You should know about this person that's about to cause a massive destruction in our worlds," Grey said, getting angry all over again.The heavenly emperor stared at him. "The emperor is all seeing, Verne. But, some things are hidden and without the heavenly mirror, it cannot be seen," he replied.Grey stared at him and exhaled. "How do we stop this?" He asked."Firstly, we cannot pair with each other because you're a demon emperor," the heavenly emperor replied."Enough of that nonsense, emperor. If we do not pair together to save our world, we'll all perish, irrespective of who's a demon or a god," Grey said, making a point and the heavenly emperor stared at him."Fine. Just for the sake of the worlds, I'm willing to put aside our differences an
"The both of you can go to hell for all I care," Vivian scoffed and without waiting to eat breakfast on the dining table, she picked up her plate and walked away in anger.She was walking towards the stairs when Grey was coming down the stairs. He wanted to ignore her, but he saw Maya walking down the stairs from the corner of his eyes."Where are you going with your breakfast?" He asked her."Is it not Zing and Gwen? They were speaking rude to me and warning me to stay away from you. That's why I'm heading to my room to eat my breakfast," she replied with a pitiful look on her face."What impertinence," Grey ranted as he walked away from Vivian and headed over to Zing.Maya was surprised by his sudden demeanor over Zing and she walked down the stairs, heading over to the dining table."Zing, what right do you have to talk to the mother of my child in such a manner?" Grey demanded in anger.Zing rose up as he scoffed. "A
It bothered him a lot. He turned to Athon. "Let him be buried immediately," Grey said and Athon nodded. "Do you perhaps know the reason on his death?" He inquired."I think I do, my Lord," Athon said as he walked over to the shelf. "One of the books on the shelf is missing, my Lord. It is the only book concerning the mysterious ancient lake," he replied.Grey was puzzled. "What has a book got to do with the death of the Mountain demon?" He asked him.Athon explained further. "The book withholds the secrets of the lake, my Lord. It is an ancestral powerful book that was discovered by the first demons," he said.Grey was still not getting what he was saying.Athon took in deep breaths. "Alpha, this book is said to consist of secret and invisible writings that no man can read. These writings when exposed, leads whoever is in control or possession of the book to the merging of all three worlds. The heavens, the earth and the demon world. I be
"I heard about your debts, Alfred," Grey began as he leaned back in his seat. "But, I must inform you before helping you out on this," he continued and Alfred was keened to what he was saying. "Your wife is responsible for your huge debts," he dropped the bombshell.Alfred was shocked. "What?" He exclaimed softly, puzzled and confused.Grey nodded. "I am not aware of how she does it, Alfred. But, to my best of knowledge, she collects money in your name because of her mother and I do not know what she uses them for. You should speak to her," he said."I'm quite shocked by this," Alfred said and his expression said it all. "So, Lisa has been doing this without my knowledge?" He asked himself, still stunned."Do not quarrel with the naive woman, Alfred. She has been doing all That because of her mother. But, that's by the way," Grey said as he tapped his index finger on the desk. "Get those payments from your wife, settle those people she g
