The glow of the sun seeped into the room, and shined the the figures on the bed, Steele lay side ways on the bed with his hands on his jaw, He looked down at Ottiline's peaceful sleeping face with a satisfied smile on his face.He stayed like that for a long time without being tired, until Ottiline's eyelashes fluttered slightly as she finally woke up, She glanced at Steele who was still looking at her, with a sleepy eyes, "Why are you staring at me like that?" She glared at him and turned to the other side to pick up her phone.When she checked the time, "Oh my gosh!" She sat up immediately, but the sore pain that hit her waist made her take a deep breath."Are you ok?" Blade looked at her face that was curled up in pain."If you ask me that question, I will kill you. Why didn't you wake me up?" She ignored the pain and sat up from the bed."I was too much last night so i just wanted you to sleep more before going to work, You can take a leave if you are stilll in pains." He suggeste
Ottiline entered the station as everyone looked at her strangely, For some reason they were all together close to the entrance of the station, "Did something happen? Why are you guys looking at me like that?" She furrowed her brows slightly, with her lips curled up in disgust."She is Ottiline." Chief Ben confirmed her identity."You guys are crazy." She muttered and walked past them to her sit..They followed and each returned to their office, Franz walked up to her as Nelly shook his head slightly while looking at him."We all saw what you did? I didn't know that you had such side of you. The way you ran to kiss him goodbye was so cute..." Franz continued speaking not noticing the change in her facial expression.I didn't know that love can change the most heartless person that I've ever seen... It was a very magical sight to see.Ottiline raised the heavy file and hit his head before he even noticed, "Are you stupid? What are you even doing here?! Don't you have a station to go to?
Ottiline ignored his outbursts and went straight to the victim's room, and turned on her laptop that still lay there. Austin on the other hand sacrificed his body to stop them from getting close, "What the hell are you doing detective?! This is an intrude of privacy! I will make sure to sue to you!" The mother yelled but Ottiline ignored them, Fortunately, the laptop was not locked so she could see everything without a hindrance. She went through the files in the laptop until she came across one folder that had no title, it was just named as a new folder."Can you be fast? I can't hold them back any longer!" Austin yelled as he felt his hair dragged by one of them, "You can do anything that you want but don't drag my hair" He yelled once again as he felt a fierce pain in is scalp, he felt like it was being pulled off."Make sure to count all the injuries that they inflict on you. They will pay for every single one of them." Ottiline yelled and continued looking at the file that she op
Ottiline and the parents looked at each other, "Do you think sending my son out is going to change anything." The mother looked away but Ottiline was not bothered by their words."Don't worry, I didn't do it to make you speak. I did it for the boy, He is so young and i don't want him to live in guilt of what he did not do." Ottiline looked at her laptop and then looked up at them, "So, will youspeak or should i just send you to jail and have your remaining child blame you for everything." She gave them the last chance to confess or she will list it out by herself.The mother bent her head and started sobbing, "We had no choice, That was the only way to save the life of our son. He was born sick and because of that, he has always been in and out of the hospital. We didn't have any other money to treat him, this was the only option we had." She wiped her tears as she explain everything, her husband didn't refute and instead consoled her."Detective, we had no other choice and she agreed
Austin took the test result and looked at it, after he confirmed that there was really nothing wrong with her he sighed relieved, "Fortunately you are fine. You can take some time off and take care of yourself." He suggested but Ottiline has already walked far away leaving him standing there alone."You can't just leave me here alone. Let's go together!" He ran after her to catch up with her, they got into the car and drove off.After they returned to the station, everyone entered the meeting room for the next course of actions, "Cocksure, Have you assessed the electronic that the parents used to contact the kidnapper?" Ottiline asked as soon as she sat down."Yes. We got it... It is a laptop, but the IP address of the person that texted me is in another continent... We can't trace it even if we want to." Cocksure explained as they reached a dead end at that side."What about the victims laptop, did she record anything about what happened to her or about the person?""No. The laptop i
"Please save my son!" Ottiline didn't listen to the mother again, and ran out of the detention room to where the boy was waiting. And there he was on the floor, wriggling in a strange way and gripping his neck as if he was unable to breathe, She pushed everyone aside and held the boy closer to her arms, "Hey! Get a hold of yourself!" She tried to soothe him but then he started bleeding from his ears."Prepare the cars! Let's go to the hospital!" She picked tie boy up, but the mother suddenly ran out of the detention."Not the hospital!! Please! My son will die! The hospital doesn't know what is wrong with him! They cannot save him!!" The mother yelled desperately as the police took her back to the detention room.Ottiline looked at the boy that was bleeding profusely not knowing what to do, She removed her jacket and covered his face so he would stop breathing. She thought of something as her eyes lit up. She closed her eyes and mumbled a name which no one heard, "Are you listening
They hurriedly took the two boys to the hospital, They couldn't breathe normally until the doctor confirmed that they were both fine and that, there is nothing wrong with the both of them.They all then returned to the station drenched in sweat, and left the boys in the hospital for further care, "Is this how i am going to take my leave?" Ottiline glanced at them as she sank on her seat not wanting to move again."I take that back. You are going to work the normal time, Just today alone alot already happened i don't know what will happen if one goes on a break... Austin, What is the time?" Chief Ben asked."It is 8 pm. We were supposed to leave by 5 pm, but alot happened to today." Austin sighed as he thought of date he had with his girlfriend, "I think my girlfriend will finally break up with me today. Ottiline can you talk to her later, you are the only one that can convince her or evn make her change her mind." Austin pleaded."I will call her later. Right now, this is a more serio
In a large conference room, which had a eerie atmosphere, Several people sat around the table, "Are you saying that he is back?" Mr. Williams asked as Blade nodded."He has been laying cool for a long time,that's what we thought. But no, He has just been hiding behind humans, making them do the work without showing their face." Blade tapped the table."Have you sent people to find him? It is against the policy to take essence from humans that their time are not up yet, and I can't believe he is now using dark energy." Mr. Williams asked as Blade nodded."I've sent people to track him down, there will be news soon.""I had the human detectives are interested in this case?" Bella looked at Blade and asked."Yes. It was reported t their station, so it is normal that they are interested in this case.""Isn't it the station that your next and last victim is from? Are you going to allow her to continue messing around?" Bella glanced at him, Blade frowned slightly at her words."You should k
THE STORY OF MY MOTHER"President Damien, The public have a question for you? Your father is the weathiest man in the world. But even after taking over his company, why are you still a detective?" The reporter asked the grown up Damien Steele.Damien crossed his legs and looked at the reporter with a slight smile, "I did it because of my mother." He replied shocking both the reporter and the viewers."Your mom? You hardly talk about her.""Yes. She is the most strongest woman and the most amazing woman that i have ever seen. No one has ever topped her." He replied as the reporter."Then you would want a woman like your mother?""No, I don't think anyone is going to be as amazing as her. So that is why i am not planning to get married.""There are so many amazing women out there."No. I don't want to give someone the burden of being better than my mother. So i don't plan on getting married at all. She is just a special woman, that no one can ever replace her. Do you want me to tell you
The rest of the dinner ended with tears, Aunt Rita couldn't hold back her tears as she blamed herself for everything that. Grandpa was sent to the hospital because of high blood pressure which he ended up dead. His burial was done immediately leaving grandma, but the next day after the burial Grandma fell sick and was sent to the hospital. Ottiline instantly regretted telling them about.She submitted her resignation letter the next day, and just decided to live the rest of her life with her family. Blade dropped everything aside and booked a two months long trip for everyone, Her teammates, her aunt and Clara, with Damien. The spent the few months in the strange country."Maybe you should have died sooner. In that way i would have come to this vacation a long time ago." Clara joked as Ottiline knocked her and took the glass of wine from her hand."You've been drinking a lot since you came here." Ottiline sat down next to her at the beach."I just feel like drinking. Is there anything
The past few days went by like a flash, and Ottiline had to spend the rest of the day in the care of her family, since no one wanted her to be out of their sight. She could still vividly remember how Clara and her Aunt found out about the cancer.FLASHBACKOn that day she sent a message to her Aunt and Clara, "How about having dinner together. Steele will be there too." She sent to them as they responded almost immediately."Great! I will be there.""You finally decided to introduce him properly." Her Aunt sent as she smiled and hugged Damien tighter while she sent a message to Blade. After their fight that, they haven't had a proper talk. But she knows that Blade comes home everyday and sleeps on the same bed, while cuddling her. She just didn't want to say anything not only because she enjoyed it but also she felt more secure to see him there.While she was about to click on sent, She changed her mind and decided to call instead, Just as she called, it didn't even ring up to twice b
Before Ottiline could agree or disagree, She already found herself in another space sitting down, "I can see that you don't know how to seek consent." She rolled her eyes at him and mumbled."I clearly got your permission. It was obvious that you wanted answers, so it will be bad of me if i don't give you the answers that you are looking for." He placed a cup of tea in her hand."You seem to know everything." Ottiline picked up the tea and had a sip, it tasted like the one she had in Blade's office."Yes, I know everything . So where do you start asking from?" He sat down opposite her."Are you the one that killed him?" She asked as Mr. Williams smiled."You can't say that i killed him. I only put a killing spell in his body, And he can activate it whenever he wanted, i didn't expect him to activate it so soon." He replied as Ottiline stared at him silently without any word."Then i guess that you must know everything that he is doing? How he killed those people and watched me investi
Ottiline listened to Blade, and felt that the story felt familiar but it was obvious that she has not heard about it before. She tried her best to hold back what she was feeling at that time, "So what happened on the wedding day?""Rebels. The rebels that i have been fighting against for a long time, suddenly attacked. To save me she sacrificed her life and was killed. I lost my reasoning, So i killed everyone in the palace, and all the rebels. Innocent people were involved in the death. All the wedding guests died at my hand. Williams came to stop me, but according to the heavens, i committed a great sin so i was punished with eternal life.No matter how i tried, I couldn't kill myself. I couldn't get killed by others, I continued living a meaningless life. Dillan's life got tied to my own because he helped me kill them. So he is only allowed to die when i die.And i can only die if i get human stars. Stars are the amount of good deed they've done in this life and in their past lives
"Don't act so surprised when you are the one that killed him yourself. For how long do you think you will continue lying to me!" She yelled at him leaving Blade all surprised by the sudden outburst."Hey, Sweetheart calm down. I don't care what other accusation you have for me. But one thing i won't do is to break a promise that i made to you. There is no way i am ever going to do that. I ensured that Franz was brought to you alive so you can do whatever you want with him." He said clearly, as Ottiline paused."Well, Someone felt like it was ok to kill Franz, and we could not even save his body for an autopsy." She mumbled while looking at Blade's facial expression, but his face was still the same as she couldn't see what he was thinking."He was supposed to die, So there is nothing wrong with dying earlier than expected." He said and went back to his work, "But his body will be ashes the moment he dies. That is the same for everyone like us." He said as Ottiline sat down."Do you mea
"What?!" Austin looked at the paper in his hands, confused and wondering how things turned out to be like this."Why do you want me to suddenly look into your husband? Are you suspecting him or something? Maybe you should let Nelly know. I am not the best person for this job." He said as Ottiline shook her head."Nelly, and everyone else must never find out about this no matter what. It might go the wrong way if they find out." She warned again as Austin nodded."Then i will look into it for you." He said and headed inside without asking her any further question about anything.As soon as he walked in Chief Ben, Cocksure and Nelly walked up to him, "What did you and Ottiline talk about? Are you guys hiding something from us?" Cocksure asked as Austin shrugged."We are not hiding anything from you. What is there is hide anyway?" He said and made to his sit."You are acting suspicious. You are the only one Ottiline meets if she wants to hide something from us." Chief Ben said as Austin
"What?!"The more Franz spoke, the more he looks at Ottiline as if trying to find out something from her facial expression, "Do you know why they wiped my memory and took away my powers. It was to prevent me from saying these things. But do you think i was going to give up, No. I stored this particular memory using dark magic, So it must come up and i must say it. Indicating that it is time for me to die." He said as Ottiline looked up at him suspiciously."Why should i believe someone who speaks without evidence. Accusing my husband is a very big crime to me." Ottiline said as he chuckled lightly."For someone who wants to kill you himself. You have a lot of emotional attachment to him. Do you think he doesn't know the fact that you are sick? He knows, but he didn't say anything about it. Just like them, he will give you the option to live your your life without pain until you die or you will die a painful death.""You seem so concerned of my life than you seem about yourself. If you
The next few weeks Ottiline spent it at home recovering, While spending a lot of quality time with Damien, Clara and Aunt Rita, As for Blade, for some reason he has not shown his face to her after the incident, and she doesn't know if she will ever see him again. But even with all of these, she has not been able to tell Clara and her Aunt about her illness. They both seemed happy that she was taking a good rest and recovering, If she broke such news to them, she couldn't imagine how devastated they would be. So she just couldn't muster up her courage to tell them.She looked at them once again and decided to break to them another news instead while they were playing with Damien, and she was eating, "I am going back to work tomorrow." She said as they both stopped what they are doing and looked up at her instead."Don't you think it is time for you to quit that job? I can give you my boutique to manage if you wat." Aunt Rita said as she shook her head."I will quit very soon. For now i
