*** Next day, at Amanda's office *** Amanda can be seen sitting on her swivel chair, going through some documents. She still hasn't gotten over seeing her former stepfather David on TV being announced as the next interim Alpha. She clearly seeks vengeance but doesn't seem to have a way to carry it out yet. Amanda's POV~"Dammit!" I cussed in a whisper as I tossed my pen away. I was getting really frustrated just thinking about how that jerk David was about to become the ruler of the entire nation! How in the world could someone as irresponsible and dumb as him ever govern a whole nation efficiently? The last time he governed anything, he made my father's company bankrupt! Imagine what he would do to the nation! My mind was a mess. Somebody needed to get rid of that guy somehow, for the good of everyone. "Perhaps, I should spoil his name publicly and expose him to be my stupid stepfather?" I pondered in thought as I stared at nothing. It was a good idea but would it work?
*** Still in the church ***Amanda's POV~Staring in silence at the statue of Mary just by the side of the altar, we both pondered what to say, how to break the ice. I felt a sting of disgust as I recalled some scenes from the time I was kidnapped by her. "How could she really walk up to me and smile?" I thought. Knowing what she had done, shouldn't she have expressed a little remorse? "So....." We both said simultaneously and paused in surprise as we glanced at each other. It was awkward. "You go first" she said. I wanted to tell her to go first but she had already beaten me to it."It's been a while" I said while staring at the statue of Mary in order to avoid eye contact."Yeah" she said with a sigh, "Who'd have thought we would meet again like this?' she asked rhetorically with a slight chuckle. I could suddenly feel the resentment I had towards her surfacing again. I really didn't know just how much I hated her until now, having not seen her since my abduction six years ago. "
Amanda's POV~"Skkrrrrrr!"I turned around only to see a white van driving off at a lunatic-level speed. "What is wrong with them?" I thought and was just about to turn around again when suddenly, something caught my eyes. I stared at the road and saw Astra in a slowly expanding pool of blood. I felt my hands tremble as I found it difficult to even so much as talk. "Astra?" I thought as my mind went blank. What was I supposed to do? Help! I needed to call for help. "Astra!!!" I yelled frantically as my purse fell off me. I dashed down towards her. "Astra? Astra? Come look at me" I said to her as I knelt by her side, trying to place her on my laps. Her eyes were wide open but she wasn't responsive at all. "Help!" I yelled, "Somebody please help!" I cried. Tears rushed profusely down my cheeks. I couldn't hold them back one bit. I had never been in a situation like this. "Oh my God" I heard a voice suddenly say from up the stairs. I quickly looked up only to see the priest from befo
Amanda's POV~I couldn't believe my ears. The priest was literally making this all seem like some really trivial event. Like someone was literally at the point of death and he was saying all this! "If you called me to make fun of someone who's hurt, then I'll be leaving now" I said calmly.I wasn't even in the right state of mind to get angry at all. I was just about turning around when he suddenly stopped me. "Wait" he said without even turning around to see if I was there."What is it?" I answered rudely but calmly. "That's not why I called you here" he said, "I've got something of more urgency and gravity that I need to tell you" he added. What could it be? I paused and stared at him skeptically. He looked a bit more serious than he did just a second ago. "Talk quickly, I'm listening" I said as I folded my arms across my chest in obvious impatience and waited for him to speak. What in the world was he going to say?.........______________________________________________________
*** In a dark room *** Looking into the dark room, you can see a couple of pictures pinned to a single section of the wall. On some of the pictures, markers had been used to draw an X on the faces. It was clear that these people must have had something happen to them, something clearly not good. Peering into the dimly lit abysmal room, a guy can be seen standing inside. He can be seen wearing a black hoodie with a nose mask. On the nose mask, the skull and bones sign, reminiscent of pirate ships, can be seen engraved on the black mask. There was some creepy slow music playing in the background and a bit of fog from the remains of put out cigarette butts. Who could this guy be?.........The executor's POV~"Why?! Why?! Why?!" I yelled as I punched the rock hard wall as hard as I could. I stopped as I soon felt the stinging pain of my fist bleeding. I stared at it for while and licked the blood off. I stared back at the pictures of my latest victim pinned to the wall. It had b
*** Evening time, city streets *** It's evening time already and a level of serenity seems to have saturated the city. The executor can be seen sitted on a street bench in a black hoodie and a black baseball hat. His hands are buried in the pockets of his hoodie. Around the bench he is sitted on, some pigeons can be seen foraging along the sidewalk. With his head down, the guy seems to be engulfed in thoughts of how to carry out his mission. He tosses some bread crumbs on the floor and the pigeons quickly gobble them up and begin their search for more..............The executor's POV~"Ting!" Another beep signaled a new notification as I pulled out my phone from my pocket. Opening the flip phone up, I opened the text. the text read. "Pffft!" I scoffed, "Don't miss this chance? What is this, a lottery ad?" I muttered mockery. I was literally death personified. The grim reaper! What exactly did he mean by don't miss this chance? "Guess it's about time I show him why I'm c
*** Still in the white van beside the chapel ***The executor's POV~I had waited out here for over half an hour. What in the world was she doing in there? I didn't have all day. I still needed to plan on how to get in touch with the lady from before. My eyes were kinda sleepy at this point. I had smoked almost ten cigarettes and I was starting to feel it's effect already. "What's taking her so long?" I muttered as I took a look at my watch to check the time. It was almost seven o'clock. How long did she plan on staying in there? Was she about to hold a night vigil or something? I didn't really take her to be a Christian. Well, at least she didn't give off the vibe of one. Clearly frustrated at this point, I contemplated just walking into the church and doing what needed to be done. I wasn't particularly religious, (in fact, I was more of an atheist) so I didn't really mind doing my job even it was gonna be inside the church. Just as I was about taking a decision, I suddenly saw her
*** Amanda's bedroom *** Laying on her bed, Amanda clearly can't fall asleep. This is partially because of the gruesome scene of the hit-and-run she had witnessed this evening but in particular, it's due to her worry over what the priest had told her just about an hour ago while they were still at the hospital. Her eyes wide open, she stares blankly at the ceiling. There are no expressions on her face other than a look of shock. What could the priest have told her? Amanda's POV~"Evil.. evil... evil...evil...evi...." I muttered repeatedly as I pondered on the words of the priest from a few moments ago. His words reverberated through my mind. I couldn't grasp them or at least I subconsciously didn't want to grasp them. "Could it be real?" I thought. I didn't know if should take his words to heart or if I should dismiss them as junk fables. I have always been the rational type since my childhood and so words like his hold almost no water to me. But something about what he s
In a simple bedroom with minimal furniture, Xander can be seen doing push-ups as his body is totally soaked in sweat. He's in very good shape and there's a fierce look in his eyes...... Xander's POV~It had been a couple of days since I escaped from the hospital and honestly I would've been dead by now had it not been for Amanda. She had come to visit me at the hospital and was told of my disappearance only to find me passed out at an abandoned building not too far from the hospital ( I still don't know how she found me by the way)Knock! Knock! The door slowly opened and Amanda walked in with a smile as she carried a tray of food in her hands. "Wow, you're up already?" She asked as she walked in. We had become rather close in the past three days and I was starting to regret ever treating her the way I did in the past. She was really nice to me though she had some odd friends who came to visit regularly and they kept on discussing some secret mission. They all refused to let
*** Throne room, Nether Moon pack ***Lucas's POV~ So long and I still hadn't heard from her. I was worried sick and it made zero sense. Me...Alpha Lucas? Under a spell? Impossible! I had consulted the Oracle and he claimed that I was under no spell whatsoever. So why did she preoccupy my mind so much? Just what kind of witchcraft was this? "....ur Majesty?....Your Majesty" the call of one of my ministers snapped me out of my thoughts. What was it this time? I was sick of their stupid status reports. I wanted action! Xander's kingdom was just within reach yet these spineless old men wouldn't let me take it at once. "Speak" I answered as I stared into thin air. I didn't quite hear anything that was said but I knew whoever was talking talked for quite a while and I was sick of it. "Enough!" I said as I stood up. Everyone bowed to their faces on seeing me stand. This was it! I was going to grab everything I wanted how I wanted."I have given you old cows all the time in the world t
*** Astral Plane***Xander's POV~"Where am I?" My voice echoed through the pitch black abyss. Was I back to my body? What in the world is going on? I was still trying to grasp the situation when suddenly, the black abyss became a three dimension black cube with green laser-like grid lines on it. It kinda looked like the graphs I used back in highschool. "Who are you?" A female voice echoed throughout the cube. I quickly jolted and looked around in surprise. "Who's there?!" I asked, startled by the voice. It was hella creepy in here. Like some sorta matrix. "You've got some nerve walking into my territory and questioning me too" the voice said again. Though it was feminine, it was quite intimidating. Sorta had that goddess aura around it. I was just about to respond when suddenly a white hovering light, almost like an orb, shone in front of me. I was stunned at the sight. "What in the world is that?" I thought as the light suddenly began pixelating at first and then depixelated to
*** Amanda's Office *** The door slams shut as Amanda hurriedly walks into her office. She seems a bit tense and looks quite anxious. She walks over to her desk and takes a seat on her swivel chair, reclining her head on the headrest and taking a deep breath. The office is silent.... and remains totally silent until she finally exhales. She then takes out her phone and plays the unfiltered recording of the call.........Amanda's POV~Record plays in the background........"Beep!" A beep from my phone signals the end of the record. I sat there in my chair, utterly silent. I had clearly confirmed now that it was David who was after Astra's life. But what was I supposed to feel? I neither felt triumphant about the discovery (probably because I was already quite sure that he was the one behind it already) nor felt shocked by the discovery. All I could think about was how much of a monster he was. Leaving him alive would simply mean jeopardizing the safety of more lives and I sim
*** Astral Plane *** As the two huge bronze doors are pushed open by the two knights who guard it, Xander is met with a most astonishing sight. It's a huge hall with a huge long table at it's center. Around the table are men all wearing red hooded robes identical to the one Xander's Dad is wearing. The hall is illuminated by rows of chanderliers dangling over the hall. Who are these people?Xander's POV~"Welcome Child" the strange men in the cult-like robes chorused on seeing us. Child? I wasn't even a child. The nerve of these guys. "Let's go in. We don't have too much time" dad said as he walked in without me. Definitely not wanting to be left behind, I followed quickly behind him. There was only one vacant seat left and dad went ahead to occupy it. "Stop!" One of them ordered as I walked up to a certain point, just in front of the table. I halted almost on reflex as the voice was quite intimidating. "You are forbidden from moving any further" the voice said. Okay, now thi
*** Astral plane *** Sleeping on the lavish bed with with over ten naked gypsy girls on it, Xander can be seen in the room totally passed out. The girls all seem to be asleep too. All over the room, golden wine goblets can be seen scattered around, along with trays and a host of other stuff. Their clothes are scattered all over the place and it looks as if they held a wild orgy party. It all seems peaceful until Xander's Dad walks in..........Xander's POV~In his dream............"Oh Xander, go faster baby.....go faster" Amanda moaned as I thrusted deeper and harder. She looked so gorgeous it was almost unreal. I had missed her body so much. "I'm coming baby! I'm coming!" I yelled in anticipation as I felt an ejaculation coming up. It was the most blissful feeling, releasing my load in her. "Urrghh!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Xander!" I suddenly heard dad's voice yank me out of my dreams. Geez, had he been there all along? I quickly sprung up from the bed and hurriedly put
*** In front of The Executor's apartment *** The executor can be seen right in front of his apartment door with a bunch of keys in his hands as he tries to open the door. Behind him is Amanda who has a gun pointed at his back. She covers it with her coat, and to a passing observer, it seems as though she's simply hanging her coat on her forearm. The executor doesn't seem too nervous as it's probably not his first time having a gun nozzle pointed at him...........The Executor's POV~"Ouch! Just give me a sec. I'm going as fast as I can" I said on feeling her ram the nozzle against my hip. It hurt a lot more than you would expect it to. I was a bit wary about letting her into my apartment. No one had ever been in here....ever! Here was more than just a home to me, it was a sanctuary....a Haven where I could be at peace with myself, without the external noise and turbulence of the world. "Click!" The sound of the door unlocking signalled to her that we could go in. She shoved
*** Desert, Astral Plane *** After over an hour, Xander and his dad finally arrive at the castle. It's clear from Xander's eyes that he is extremely dehydrated and exhausted. His eyes stare lifelessly at the huge castle in front of them. Meanwhile, his Dad looks just as good as normal, totally unfazed by the daunting journey.....Xander's POV~Finally, we were here. I honestly had lost any traces of excitement at this point. I just wanted water and probably some rest. Just what kind of punishment was this? I needed to get the hell out of this hell!"Come on, wake the hell up" I muttered weakly as I pinched myself quite a couple of times. I wanted to wake up so bad. Even being in the abysmal darkness of unconsciousness was far better than being here. This place was literally worse than hell. "We here boy" dad said as the dumb mole-camel came to a halt. I absolutely hated this creature simply because of it's lack of drive. It was neither fazed by the intense heat nor cared
*** Alleyway blocked my Amanda's car *** Clearly seething with rage, Amanda stands right in front of the man she saw in the white van yesterday with the nozzle of her him staring the man right in the face. Her hands are trembling, not from fear but from the burning desire to waste him then and there. The eyes of the man seem to reflect the fact that he knows just how volatile a situation like this was. One wrong word, one silly movement and it was clear that she wouldn't hesitate to shoot. What is Amanda going to do?Amanda's POV~"Could it just be a lookalike?" I thought. But then again, if that was the case, then why did he run? "You're the guy from yesterday right?" I asked just to make sure. A part of me really wanted him to deny it so bad. I didn't know what I would do if I were faced with the reality of this guy being the asshole from yesterday. Would I be able to control myself? My emotions were already flying all over the place. "Yes" he answered quietly with a s
