Never to look back Why should I sweat the little things while I have my father?
Sheryl waited patiently for Daniel to come begging her for cooperation. She knew that he wouldn’t be able to meet her as she had heard that the Walters had all left the very next day after the wedding from Silas, even before she passed the information to Daniel. Her reason for passing the useless message was to lure Daniel into her scheme. Things would be much easier with someone else to do the leg work and take the blame. Meanwhile, Daniel decided to follow his grandfather’s advice. He decided to concentrate on his relationship with Michelle. Over the next few days, he consciously made the effort to spend more time with Michelle and not think about anything related to Emile. He even wanted to delete all the photos that he had secretly taken and was his prized possession, however when it came to doing it, he couldn’t. The most he could get himself to do was move the folder into a hidden folder that was out of his sight. He left all the responsibilities of day-to-day functioning of th

A week passed by since Amanda’s disappearance and yet no one seemed to be impacted by it. Not even her parents; everyone was engrossed in their own schemes. Walter manor too quietened down after the Walter ladies went back to their husband’s home. Eva had returned late at night after a social gathering when she heard the faint sound of conversation coming from her in-laws’ room. She tippy toed closer to the room without realizing that her shadow would expose her. Adam’s eye flickered as he saw the shadow hovering near the door. He suppressed the flames arising in the depths of his heart and continued the conversation feigning ignorance. “Why didn’t you stop second from going? Is this the age to be willful and muck around?” Elizabeth continued to complain in grievance “Look, he hasn’t even called home since the last time 3 days.” “What if…” Elizabeth was in the midst of having a mental breakdown with her imagination taking flight. Adam covered her lips with his hands and spoke in a

The thing Emile looked forward to most this past week was the video call with Chris at 7pm. The call would come as clockwork, no matter whether it was hail, storm or snow in the world around them. Emile would make sure she completed all her tasks and would be waiting by her computer before 7 in her room. The phone didn’t even have to ring before Emile would pick it up. But today, the phone didn’t ring as usual. Emile started to get anxious even though the time on the clock showed that it was only 2 mins over. Whether it was Emile’s over imaginative mind or the pregnancy hormones, either way Emile’s stress levels were rising at a phenomenal speed. “Duk…. Duk….duk…” Emile didn’t think much as she heard the knock on the door and hurriedly opened it and went back to her computer. She didn’t want to miss Chris’s call. She didn’t even spare a glance at the person who entered her room; it had to be said that Emile’s alertness level was non-existent in this environment. Emile didn’t even s

Chris sat up as thought of the last update from Night Slide. He dialed Henry without hesitation. “Hello” Henry picked up even before 2 rings went through. “It’s Christopher.” “I know.” Henry chuckled “Do you need tips on how to ease my sister’s temper?” “No need.” Chris rolled his eyes “My wife, I can manage. However, I do need your help.” “Um???” “Are you able to create an illusion that Emile is home at the Burke residence?” “Where is my sister?” Henry’s eyes narrowed; his playful aura was replaced with a baleful one. Christopher didn’t take any offense; He explained the situation briefly without touching on the second brother’s issue. “No problem.” Henry’s lips curled up in appreciation; this Walter was much to his liking; no wonder his sister took a fancy to him. “Don’t hesitate to call on the Burkes if you need any assistance. We are family.” Henry didn’t hesitate to extend the olive branch. “Thank you, big brother.” Chris smiled as he hung up. Next, he messaged his fat

Emile rushed downstairs as soon as Anne told her that Master Dupont had received the information she requested. “Madam, please slow down.” Anne rushed behind her worriedly. However, Emile didn’t pay any attention to her. “Monsieur” Emile walked in excitedly as soon as Raphael invited her to enter the study. “Um?” Raphael feigned ignorance as he lifted his eyebrows quizzically. “That… the information…” Emile couldn’t be bothered to be embarrassed; She blurted blushing. “Have you finished the designs I asked?” “Huh?” “The spring designs we talked about yesterday.” Raphael asked with an expressionless face. “Oh… no…” Emile lowered her head before raising her head hesitantly “Can I finish it tomorrow?” “No.” Raphael smiled wickedly “When you hand me your designs with one hand, I will hand over the information with the other. How about it?” Emile stood where she was pouting resentfully before stomping out of the room with a childish temper muttering that everyone was bullying her

Life wasn’t smooth for either of them. Darcy wanted to tell his family, but Grace wanted to be able to stand on her own feet before telling his family. This was especially difficult for Darcy who never hid anything from his family. But for her, he was willing. As long as she was happy, as long as she was by his side, he would wait patiently for her to be comfortable for meeting his folks. He tried his best to reassure her that his family was not like the other families. But she wouldn’t bulge. It wasn’t that she didn’t trust him, she wanted to settle her vampire family members before announcing their marriage. She knew how greedy and insatiable her family members were. She didn’t want them to suck Darcy’s blood dry. She wanted to settle her folks comfortably before settling down herself. She couldn’t bring herself to cut off her relationship with them even though she knew of their materialistic love and unsatiable greed. She thought that once she brings them to settle comfortably the

Emile sat back with a heavy sigh; she didn’t even realize that she had tears streaming down her cheeks. She had been so engrossed in her reading, in Grace's life that she didn’t even register Raphael who came over at who knows what time and was currently sitting beside her reading. “How can anyone survive such an ordeal? Isn’t it tiring?” Raphael in all his wisdom couldn’t understand and concluded with a sigh, affirming his lifelong understanding of love “I was right… love is either fake or tiringly bothersome.” “I still don’t understand why you all flock towards it seeking death.” Raphael’s eyes revealed the confusion of a child, innocent and baffled. “Because….” Emile paused as she saw Raphael’s eyes looking over eagerly “it is the essence of life.” “You only live once, why not live to the fullest… like it mattered… leaving behind traces in the warp of time rather than living a long life that is safe and meaningless...” Emile shrugged. “You think my life is meaningless?” Raphael

“I believe I just figured out how to, or rather where to start looking for Grace.” Emile smiled brilliantly. Raphael’s lips curled up too… he had to admit, Emile’s spirit was infectious. “What do you need me to do?” “Can we look through all universities in the country offering courses in archaeology?” Emile thought for a moment and added “further away from our hometown and the university Grace studied at previously.” “Consider it done.” Raphael turned his head and nodded towards Danos. The rest of the day was spent discussing the designs that Emile handed over in the morning. Raphael was very impressed with the design; it sat well with the concept he had in mind. He discussed the ideas he had in his mind and asked her for imputs; the two modified their designs as they discussed. Raphael told her that they had to have the designs for 24 sets ready in 2 weeks so that Laura, who was responsible for getting the designs from paper to cloth, could have enough time for making and remaki

The rest of Burkes followed suit without waiting for either Chris or Emile to respond; curiosity had gotten the better of them.Little baby was not stupid. How would he dare question little aunt? He looked over nonchalantly before making a gesture with his meaty fingers to indicate payment.“What do you want?” Both Harry and Addison asked in excitement.“I am very rich for the time being, so I will let Leo choose.” Little baby responded with a smug look and passed the honours to Leo.“Take us all on the trip to the Alps when fifth Uncle Walter is taking them.” Leo didn’t have to think as he told Addison what he wanted.Addison agreed without a second thought and walked back into the room the adults were seated, humming a song only to be despised by his mother, which he totally ignored and sat down happily with a thick skin.The fate of the rest of the Burke brothers were similar; no one was spared.

“Where are you going?” Henry teased as he caught the little overlord and hurled him in the air.“Put me down.” Bruno frowned, flailing his legs anxiously “I haven’t finished discussing with little uncle.”Everyone laughed as Henry put Bruno down, who promptly ran to Chris, looked up at him curiously, awaiting his decision.“Hur…hur…hur….” Chris chuckled “How would I dare renegade on a promise to our little overlord?”“Then when can we go?” Bruno asked seriously, taking no offense to the title, to him, this was recognition of his ability.“When we get back and whenever you say the word.” Chris never had any qualms indulging his nephews and nieces.“Where are we going?” Leo asked curiously.Bruno looked towards Chris who shrugged “It’s up to to the owner of the reward to decide, I am just the charioteer.”“Then let’s go to the ocean king’s castle.” Bruno didn’t have to think twice to make a decision.Chris “”Everyone burst out laughing, only the little ones looked curiously at Chris.“I

He was smart enough to decipher big treasure's cryptic message that he could find the answer by testing them himself, after sulking for a while, thinking about big treasure’s words over and over again. He rushed to Chris’s room once again, pulled Big Treasure aside and whispered hurriedly before running away. He then ran off to the apartment where the Burkes where resting. He went over to call Leo and Liam to play with him in the backyard with a crafty look in his eyes. All the Burke kids followed Leo and Liam to play, the main intent for the older kids following them was to keep them safe.He turned around to look at Leo with a guilty look in his eyes as he asked cautiously, “Would you stop talking to me if you find out that I landed you in trouble to test you?”“Why do you want to test me?” Leo demanded with a frown.“Because it is very important to me.” Bruno blinked his eyes, lowering his gaze as he whispered, “Like life and death situation that grown-ups talk about.”“Well, in tha

After the excitement died down, everyone decided to go out, sight-seeing, like proper tourists. Adam invited his friends who politely stayed back at the hotel sensing that Adam and the rest had family matters to sort out, to join the group. Just like that, the Burkes, Walters, Adam’s three friends, the two masters, Chris’s senior brother, Bai-Min and Lai-Li set off on their wild-life adventure, that they had booked with one of the tour groups. It goes without saying that the group included Adrian and his little family and Neil who dragged Chiara along with him. What was unexpected was that Emm pulled Amy, Abbey’s assistant to tag along with them. Luckily for Amy, she had Beth who got dragged into the family outing by Marcus to keep her company. Her boss had ditched her without a conscience the minute her ‘knight in shining armour’ appeared. On their return trip, even though they were all chatting, what attracted everyone’s attention was little treasure’s soft cute voice “Daddy, is it

The next morning, everyone was in high spirits without even a trace of the anxiety that passed through; although they were still waiting for an explanation, a closure to whole saga. The breakfast table was lively and cheerful. “Son, tell me is Emile really pregnant?” Elizabeth couldn’t hold herself back anymore. She asked once everyone had settled in the lounge area to relax after breakfast. “Um” Chris nodded although he was displeased inwardly; he wondered if his mother had truly changed or whether she was about to revert to her old ways. “Tell us how you know what was wrong with Little aunt.” Miles piped in from the background, turning everyone’s attention towards big treasure and little treasure, after being signalled by Marcus. He didn’t know why eldest brother wanted him to divert the topic, but he still obeyed. He didn’t always have to know the reason; eldest brother was in charge; he would follow whatever eldest brother asked him to do. “Daddy was too lost. We knew we had to

Outside the room, Chris Jnr finally managed to coax little treasure and sighed in relief. There was nothing he could do about it, his little ears and heart hurt from listening to little treasure’s wails. He would compensate his little brother in other ways. “How is your mommy?” Chris asked once little treasure had been coaxed. “She is fine.” Chris Jnr thought for a minute before answering; his mommy looked fine, she was sleeping peacefully. He leaned forward, close to Chris, gesturing little treasure to come close and whispered with a soft voice “Daddy, I touched a dragon.” “A what?” Little treasure’s eyes widened, surprise mixed with disbelief, reflecting in those adorable eyes. “Um” Chris Jnr nodded with all seriousness in affirmation to little treasure but not before he gestured little treasure to be quiet. “Daddy, are dragons real?” Little treasure leaned even closer as she whispered. “Maybe…” Chris shrugged before closing his eyes and mind linking with the two treasures “Da

“Jnr might be a good option.” Chris’s master slowly opened his mouth once he finished sifting everyone’s faces through his mind.Hua Yueren lifted his eyebrows questioningly.“He has been around her while she was away. Naturally, the apparition although only a figment of Azure’s consciousness, it will still be sharp enough to sense a friend from a foe. Also, since he is her biological son, his spirit must have a lingering smell of her essence.”Hua Yueren nodded; he didn’t have any better solution. They would re-think their plans if this one backfired.Chris’s master transmitted his message to Spector who promptly brought Chris in, in his usual manner of teleportation.Chris Jnr greeted the two masters and stood straight, neither servile nor overbearing, quietly waiting instructions; his demeanour brought a glint of admiration to the eyes for both men.“Son, can you see the apparition surrounding your mother?” Chris’s master knelt beside Chris Jnr so that he could level his gaze with h

Emile felt a bit anxious as she entered the room with Chris’s and Neil’s masters. Although she knew them, she wasn’t very familiar with them. She looked towards Lai-Li with an anxious gaze; Lai- Li was the only person in the group whom she knew a little better.“It will be alright.” Lai-Li comforted in a gentle voice as she saw Emile’s gaze resting on her uncomfortably.“Master Walter’s mood might get agitated and that won’t help us.” She explained patiently as she saw that the concern in Emile’s gaze hadn’t dispersed. “Neil is not used to our world, and he will be in a daze and that will not help our cause as we will need to be quick.”Although Emile didn’t fully understand, she nodded. She had seen Chris do unbelievable things before, stuff that couldn’t be explained by logic and science alone.“It will be quick. Everything will be back to normal as soon as you wake up.” Lai-Li coaxed gently as she patted her hands while Emile’s lids gradually grew heavier and finally, she closed her

“Daddy, little treasure is here.” Emm tugged Chris’s pants with grievance. She had been waiting patiently for daddy to coax little baby and carry her, but little baby had no intention of coming down.“Daddy’s little treasure is the most understanding treasure in the world.” Chris smiled as he knelt and carried Emm along with Bruno and headed to wait in front of the door.“Little brother, let me…” Darcy stepped forward extending his hands towards Chris with a sheepish smile. He wondered if he really was not cut out to be a good father; he was happily standing watching the drama unfold when Grace nudged him with a reproachful glare as she gestured with her eyes towards Bruno.“It’s okay.” Chris chuckled looking at Darcy’s embarrassment before turning his doting gaze towards his little treasure and then Bruno.Neither looked at him as they were both looking at the closed door with similar anxious expressions although the cause of their anxiety was different. Little baby’s world only had B
