“Aren’t you two going home yet?” Ella and Seth sat on the sofa while watching tv and eating fruit. Luna sat beside the table while busy peeling the fruit the three were eating. Ella glanced at Simon. “Uncle, it’s not just obvious, but I’m on duty now. There is a lot of police downstairs and around the hospital.” Ella said. “And me, I can’t go home. Will you leave me there alone while you’re all here? No way!” said Seth. Simon frowned and glanced at Luna, laughing, looking at Ella and Seth. ‘Haist, it’s my chance to be alone with Luna. There is some annoying brat here.’ Simon thought. Ella stood up and approached Luna. She sat next to Luna. “You, Luna? Have you had a good rest? ” “Yeah, but it is so boring here,” said Luna. “Let’s tell the doctor that I’ll be out tomorrow so I can find Rafael.” Ella smirked. “As if you can get back to work right away.” “Why not? You can do it, can’t you?” Luna asked. “I’ll ask the doctor and chief first,” said Ella. “Huh? You are in a higher
Rafael was waiting for Simon and Luna to come out of the hospital, and he didn’t make a mistake. He saw their car get out of the hospital basement parking lot. And why he could not recognize the vehicle, police officers escorted their truck. “Do you have a police escort, huh?” Rafael said softly, then he started the motorcycle and pivoted it on. Meanwhile, Simon is driving the car. He puts Seth in the back seat and Luna in the front. Ella was riding in another vehicle. Ella looked in the rearview mirror to see a motorcycle following them earlier. She couldn’t see its face because it was wearing a helmet. The rider saluted her and then passed her car when it got next to Ella’s car. “How did that rider know I was a cop?” Ella asked. Her eyes widened, and she immediately called the car in front and Luna. Luna immediately answered Ella’s call from the last car following them. Ella said a suspicious motorcycle rider was following their vehicles. Luna peeked in the rearview mirror and s
Simon was inside his laboratory and took his blood sample. He hid his blood sample and cleaned the inside of the laboratory. Sweat drenched him as he turned off the air conditioning in the room. Using the vacuum, he removed the dust and dirt around. He had already taken off his clothes because it’s wet. Luna was standing in the doorway, staring at Simon, who was taking off his clothes. Who would have thought that a hottie in front of her was 544 years old? She smiled. “Do you have to be naked when cleaning?” Luna asked. Simon turned around and smiled. He noticed Luna was carrying a food tray and laid it on the clean table. “You didn’t go out for dinner, so I brought dinner here. Let’s eat together?” Luna said, smiling. Simon turned around and washed his hand in the sink. He also washed his face and removed the cabinet's clean towel to wipe his body. Simon approached Luna, then; sat down on the other side of the table. Luna arranged the food on the table. “You have not eaten yet?”
“Let’s get married.” Simon and Luna were going down the stairs after their intimate moment. Simon doesn’t expect Luna to give herself to him, and he’s Luna’s first. He thought it was unfair to Luna for what happened. Luna turned to Simon. “Are you still thinking that until now?” Simon took Luna’s hand and leaned on the ladder's handle. “It bothers me because I know I was your first. You are a woman, and it is unfair to you… ” “I love you. I gave myself to you because I love you and not because I want to marry you immediately. We will get to that point in God’s perfect time, but for now, don’t think you’ve been unfair to me, okay?” Luna smiled. “I’m unfair to you. I didn’t expect a 544-year-old hottie to be a vir….” “Damn, love, don’t shout it out. Seth might be here, and that boy will tease and annoy me again,” said Simon. Luna laughed as he whispered to Simon. “Let’s do it again later. Okay?” Simon’s eyes broaden. “A-are you serious? Please don’t tease me like that. I might bel
Luna and Ella met a known professor at the university. The guard accompanied them to tour inside a spacious room. “Why did you do it now after 85 years? I mean, you do sports fests, stalls, and different things every year during foundation week,” said Ella. “Because of these pictures, everyone learned more about my family. My great grandfather. It is exposing my family to the world, and this is not a good joke to us. It pissed my uncle off.” “I don’t know, Ella. I was one of those who they appointed to search for these school stockroom photos. Just think that for a few days, I had an allergy attack because of being exposed to dust just looking for those.” the female professor said. “Whoever thought of that?” Luna asked. “The new history professor. He is handsome, and many are obsessed with him.” the female professor said. “What does he look like?” Ella asked. “Is he old and suddenly gets fascinated by the old photos?” “Well, I think he’s about your age. He’s handsome and decent.
“Explanation? Why do I have to explain to people? ” Simon couldn’t believe he had to explain in front of the camera to tell people he wasn’t the one in the picture. “You have to, Mister Gonzalez, stop the social media and the media.” the attorney said. “He’s right, Uncle,” said Ella. “You also have to do that at the company and the hospital. As a billionaire, you have to face the camera. ” “You have to agree,” Luna said. “It’s for all of us.” Simon took a deep breath. “I’ll take care of your statement. You just going to read it,” said Ella. “Can’t the Attorney just face the camera?” Simon asked. Everyone looked at the Attorney. “It’s your job, attorney,” said Ella. “I’m okay with that. Let’s prepare his statement to end this problem.” the Attorney said. “You are the best attorney. You are going to face the camera. Fix yourself and make sure you’re handsome.” said Ella. The older man laughed. “I’m handsome, Ella. There’s no need.” Secretary Anne knocked on the office door. “S
Luna put a sleeping pill on the milk she gave Seth. She did this so Seth could sleep after what had happened earlier. There was still a trace of cord on Seth’s neck. Luckily, Seth survived with the help of two guards who gave their lives in exchange for Seth’s. “No one but Rafael will do this to Seth, Uncle,” said Ella. “He’s a psycho and wants something from Seth, but what could it be?” “Maybe he wants to point something out,” said Simon. “I think he wants to know if Seth is also immortal.” “What? Why would he think that?” said Ella. “What does he think of you, Uncle, a narrow-minded like him?” Ella was very annoyed. “Relax, Ella. Nothing will do with your temper.” Luna said. “I can’t accept that I couldn’t even protect Seth. What if he dies?” Ella couldn’t stop her tears from dripping. Luna hugged Ella. Luna looked at Simon, who was also holding his head. Even Simon was worried for Seth as well. “Doesn’t Seth have protection?” Simon asked. “What happened to them?” “Rafael als
Along with the girl, Luna and Ella go to a condo unit that the girl told them about at the station. Luna tells Ella what the young girl told her and visits the place. The girl pointed that out after she spoke. According to the girl, in a nearby condo unit, she saw a picture of Luna and others in the man's room who paid her for sex four times. When they arrived at the condo unit, there was no one as expected, just like the girl said. The man there comes home every night, so no one is there in the morning. While standing in front of the door of the condo unit, the girl was also there. Ella was looking at the young woman’s body. At a young age, she already had a sexual experience just because she lacked money and had to sell her body. Luna took a deep breath. “We better leave so Rafael can catch up with us here,” said Ella. Luna approached the young woman, and she faced them, but it surprised Luna to see her smile. She was holding the syringe, and she plunged it into both of their neck
The guests clink their glasses together to express their desire for further kisses from the newlywed. Simon laughed and put up one hand to encourage the guests to keep clinking the glasses. He wrapped his hand around Luna’s waist and leaned her back as he kissed her. Luna’s arms encircled Simon’s neck as it wrapped them around his. —Flashback— Luna grabbed Simon’s hand right away so that it wouldn’t go all the way under the water. She opened his mouth and gave him air as she tried to swim upward. Later, two divers gave Simon air and helped them swim back up. Luna gasped for air as soon as she pulled her head out of the water. Luna’s fellow police officers pulled Simon away. “Let me..” Luna said, and then her colleagues gave her space. She put her ear next to Simon’s mouth and nose. Without feeling the wind on his face, he looked to see if his chest was moving. She checks Simon’s pulse for 10 seconds. She put the heel of one of her hands on the middle of the breast at the nipple lin
Simon woke up because he could feel his bed moving. He got up and noticed that one of his hands was handcuffed. When he turned around, he saw Seth and Luna standing at the end of the yacht. Their mouths are covered with tape, and their wrists, chests, and feet are tied.“You said you wouldn’t hurt them,” Simon said.Rafael smiled. “I lied.”“You are crazy!” Simon retorted.Rafael did not answer. He just laughed as if Simon was just joking. When Simon looked at his arm, he saw he was drawing blood again. He tried to take it off, but he handcuffed one of his hands to the pole and the other was numb. Rafael had taken blood from one of his arms, and now he couldn’t move that arm. He didn’t know how much blood he had taken, but he already felt weak and lightheaded.“Stop fighting, Simon. If you can get out of there, I will throw those two into the sea.” Rafael said as he sat down in front of Simon. “Think about how they could swim if they were tied together.”Simon was breathing hard, and
Rafael tied Luna’s hands and feet together and taped her mouth shut as he did with Seth. Luna was struggling to get away when Rafael picked her up. He lifted her onto his shoulder and carried her to the garage. He set Luna down. Later, Luna’s eyes grew wide when she saw Rafael holding a syringe. He immediately injected it into her arm. At first, she was still struggling, but she couldn’t keep her eyes from closing.“Don’t worry, you only slept for about half a day or so,” Rafael said, laughing. “As long as you don’t get in the way of my plans. I don’t want you with me anymore...” Rafael carried Luna to the car’s compartment. “But I thought I could use you just in case, you know, your boyfriend didn’t agree.”Rafael closed the trunk of the car with a smile. He went back into the house and walked up to Seth with a smile. He started by looking at Seth.“For an 18-year-old, you have a muscular body. Do you go to the gym?” Rafael asked.Rafael pulled Seth’s arm up and forced it up. “Just j
Ella noticed that someone was being followed by a motorcycle after she had already gotten on the highway. She glanced in the side mirror and just let the motorcycle follow her. She was almost to the village where she lived when a motorbike blocked her way, forcing her to step on the brakes. When she saw the man leave his motorbike, she immediately ready her gun and waited for him to come toward her. When the man got close to the driver’s seat window, it knocked. Ella quickly opened the door, which the man didn’t expect, so when the door hit the rider’s body, he fell a short distance away. Before he got up, Ella got out of the car and immediately pointed the gun at the man. The man immediately lifted one hand and used the other to open the front of the helmet.“This is Sanchez, ma’am...”Ella didn’t immediately believe that’s why the man took off his helmet. When Ella saw who it was, she just put the gun back on her hip.“What are you doing, Sanchez?” Ella asked. “I said I’m fine. You
Simon is at home to rest. The private doctor who looked after Simon gave him back the blood that had been taken from him. Since they left Nueva Ecija, he hasn’t woken up. The doctor said it was only normal. Simon’s body had lost too much blood.Simon was sleeping, and Luna was sitting next to the bed and watching him. Seth brought Luna food. Seth put it on the table next to the couch, and Luna went over to it right away.“Ella has already left,” said Seth. “Why doesn’t uncle wake up?”Luna gave a headshake. “Rafael looks like he drained his blood. That person is horrible.” Luna took a bite of the burger.“Because it’s easier if he takes Uncle’s blood and puts it in him before he kills him.”“Yes, that’s right. That’s what he wants to do.” Luna said. “Thank goodness we found him right away. If not, what your uncle has been hoping for since then would have happened.”Seth chuckled. “As if you are going to let that happen.”“Of course not, no,” Luna said, and then took a bite of the burg
Seth keeps looking in the library for Simon’s diary. He looked in every cabinet and on every shelf for it. Ella and Luna are at the hospital waiting for an update.“Why did it take Zev so long to find it?” Ella asked.“Don’t you know where Simon might have hidden it?” asked Luna. “Or he might have said it before and you just don’t remember.”“When Uncle was telling stories, he never said the name. Even the years, you still have to confirm with him.”Luna said nothing—she just took a deep breath. He couldn’t imagine what Rafael could do to Simon. So far, they have heard nothing, but she’s sure Simon is still alive.———-When Simon woke up, it was dark outside. He was so dizzy that he didn’t know how much blood Rafael had taken from him. And he still doesn’t take away the devices used. He felt cold. A sudden drop in blood pressure can also bring on chills. His heart needs some time to pump fresh blood through his body. That’s why it makes him feel weak, dizzy, shiver, and sweat. He als
Simon woke up on a bed, unable to move. Rafael tied his hands and legs to the corners of the bed. He was in a room that wasn’t furnished, but the bed was comfortable.“Why did you tie me here? I told you I wouldn’t run away, didn’t I?”“Yeah, I heard,” Rafael said. “But I don’t trust you. Also, you need to get some rest.”“Why? What’re you going to do?”Rafael smiled. “What kind of food do you want to eat? Just tell me what it is, and I’ll buy it. I’ll spoil you while you’re here with me.”Simon saw Rafael was dressed as if he was going to leave. “Where’re you going?”“Am I supposed to say where I am going to, uncle?” Simon said, chuckling.“If you are going to leave, let me go. Even if you just tie my legs. What if I need to go to the bathroom?”“Hold on, I’m just fast. I won’t last long. Also, if I do that, you will wear yourself out. That’s not possible, because I told you, you need to rest today. Behave, I’ll be gone in a moment...”Rafael got up and left the room quickly. Simon s
“Rafael...”The man was not too far away from them with a revolver in his hand and was aiming it at Luna. The man was staring at Luna. When Luna was about to approach Simon, Rafael shot again, and this time it was between her and Simon. Luna stepped back.“You..” Rafael said to Simon. “Come here if you don’t want me to shoot that policewoman again.”“Simon, no!”Rafael shot again and hit Luna on the other leg, causing her to fall to her knees. Simon’s eyes got wider.“What? Are you approaching or do you want the next bullet to hit the girl’s head?“No, don’t shoot Luna, please.”Luna was sweating cold, her hand was numb, and now her leg was too. He leaned against the car’s front.“What are you... what are you doing, Simon?” asked Luna.“I am waiting, Simon Gonzales...”“I’ll go with you, but don’t hurt her anymore...” Simon tried to stand.“No, no Simon!”“Do not worry about me. Call Ella and have her come pick her up so she can go with you to the hospital...”“No Simon. Don’t follow
“Alright, I’ll call you later.”Ella is working in her office. She is now awaiting an update from her troops who are out in the field and who are keeping surveillance surrounding the building and within it. Rafael hasn’t shown up yet, and nothing out of the ordinary has happened.“There is no sign of the killer in the area, ma’am,” a police officer said from her desk.She nodded and let the person out. Ella set the two elbows down on the table, brought both of her hands together, and rested them on her forehead. When the killer doesn’t show up after a week, they have to stop the operation and leave Simon with Luna.When the phone rang, she immediately turned to answer it. Luna calls her. Before she picked up the phone, she took a deep breath.“Luna, something has happened?” Ella asked.“Yeah..”“Is Rafael there?” Ella asked, surprised.“No!” Luna suddenly answered on the other line.“What do you mean then?”“We are now at the mall and the jewelry shop.”“Where? The mall?” Ella looked
