Henry's POVMinutes have gone by and still Kai hadn't arrived yet. I know the drive from the sanctuary to thus place is an hour long so does that mean we are to keep waiting for so long.No choice! "Henry, who did you call? The doctor?" Nanny who was out of Mia's room asked me from behind almost startling me."No, someone better" I replied her"Don't stress yourself about it. I'm sure Mia would be fine" Nanny said heading to the kitchen to get water for herself.We waited then till the door creaked open. Kai stepped in holding unto a brown box."I think it's the first phase" he said to me immediately I had led him into Mia's room.He began unpacking the things in the box, two bottles and a book."Have you found..."Kai's nose scrunched on this. “I didn't find any old repeller. I think she might be the new generational repeller which is why it's very difficult ”"So you are saying she would get no help?"His silence sent daggers into me. I just want to bury my head in the wall.
Mia's povNanny confirmed the soup was done. She quickly heat up some rice and scooped my share in two bowls. My rice in a bigger bowl and the soup in a smaller bowl."So, can you reveal what made you upset earlier?" Nanny threw this question at me once I was about taking up a spoonful into my mouth."Earlier?""Todd had brought you home himself""Oh that. It's just nothing""Mia, you don't keep things from me. Maybe you do but only when it's related to your duty as Raven""I saw Luca. He k*ssed Chelsea in front of me""So, you got jealous?""Yes and I had let it get the better of me. I set my car ablaze and yelled out my frustration at the beach close by. Nanny, I wanted to get rid of the pain from the jealousy I felt"Nanny shook her head in disbelief. She took two sip from the glass of water by her left hand and spoke up "The Mia I know wouldn't dissipate her anger this way"I frowned sadly before watching her continue her speech "You are still young and would find the better guy f
Mia's POVThe following day, morning precisely I woke up with a slight headache. I went into the bathroom and washed my face twice.I stared at my reflection in the mirror and I could swear I saw something or was it my imagination. I saw one of my eyeball turn red for a second.I picked my toothbrush from the cup on the sink and applied the toothpaste over it before I began brushing my teeth.Whatever is going wrong with me is absolutely new. I wish Kai would just find the damn repeller hag...geez! Language...older repeller. The woman or man deserve some respect but I was getting pissed off for no reason.When I was done brushing my teeth, I took a shower and then looked through my wardrobe for something good.I threw on a big badboy hoodie on. I wore a fitted bumshort with a meshed socks.Nanny who had seen me come out of the room sent me back to change the dress. ‘Geez!’I changed the bum short and wore a crazy denim pants. She didn't look okay with it but that was my last choice fo
Luca's POVMia's return from wherever she had come from had got me stunned, not until she claimed to be a different person.So, I went to Hedges Casino to find the guy they called Ace Carter.He's very famous at the casino and from his looks, you could tell he seemed dangerous.“I'm the Mafia leader of BloodyScars" he said once we had sat for a discussion. After learning I was good at gambling games, he became loose tongued.“Before we play, could you answer my few questions?” I asked him"Were you sent to me? Who sent you?""Chill bro, I'm not involved with any shitty mafia. Just came here to seek info on someone""Hm...who's this person you seek info on?""Mia Alexandra Carson""What do you need with this girl?" He asked me."I want to confirm a lot. Is she..." Ace interrupted me"One time she ruined my trade on the sea. We were smuggling drugs but she ruined the trade"That was funny. Mia is a good girl from the looks of things. It's not a good thing to smuggle drugs so the girl di
Mia's POVI rushed to the ladies restroom and began splashing water on my face. I can't believe I reacted that way.It was his fault for painting it on my face that she is his girlfriend after the foolish girl had slapped me. I rubbed my wounded lip. It didn't ache me one bit but I hate to have cuts especially anywhere on my face.I went to receive my project work from Todd. "Your lips" he said looking at my lips "It's just a small cut. I'm fine. Is this all that I need?""Yes. I had so much of the diagrams in there as well, most of the work was all me" He said"Thank you Todd. I'll have to submit it now" he nodded and watched me head back.In the lecture hall, the professor asked us to submit our project work after the lecture. He went ahead teaching us till some students began to feel bored with his explanations.“Sir, ain't you tired? Take some rest” a student said from God knows where."Tired? Who said that?"No response“The next professor is cute, can't wait to see him”“I shoul
Mia's povI walked through the midst of students with Delilah till we had reached outside. Delilah was about showing me something then when someone grabbed me from her and next I found myself in the laboratory."What the...Luca?" "What's going on between you and Ashton?" He said in a huff breath with his grip on my wrist very tight. I didn't whimper but let his nails dig into my wrist for a reason I myself didn't know."Who are you to ask me that?""You can never fool me, Mia. You are the same Mia and whether you like it or not I won't be deceived the second time" the way he had said it reminded me that he still thinks of me as a deceiver."You've proven me right once again. You are not only sly but also shameless. How many guys do you want to trap into your walls of deceit. If you think your little stunt over there would aggravate me, trust me it won't because there can't be any way I would actually harbour feelings for you. You don't deserve to be loved"I held myself from shedding
Mia's povExactly half past 5 after being home and queried by my brother, I took a third shower and changed into something different.By 8:00, the stupid party should begin. I walked out of my room heading to the kitchen to have the pancakes nanny must have left for me. They all ate without me when I said I was going to sleep."You skipped lunch this long" Henry said from where he sat in the dark living room. The lights were out for some reason.He turned them back on revealing him in his pajamas."I'm sleeping early today" he muttered."How's it been with you and Nelda? You haven't told me how the dinner date went""It was going well until I decided to confess to her and her stupid phone came ringing. She was needed at the hospital urgently so I hung around the restaurant for so long, even went to the bridge alone before returning home""Why did you do such a stupid thing?""I was disappointed. I thought I would finally let this off my chest. I dreamt of her reaction and all only to
Luca's POVI felt so jealous of watching Mia do such nonsense with Ashton. She was doing this in front of me with no hesitation.To triple the anger rushing through me, Chelsea embarrassed herself in front of everyone and I had no choice but to leave the hall. A minute later, I saw Mia stepping out with her friend. I yanked her away with me to the laboratory."What the...Luca?" She asked me furiously."What's going on between you and Ashton?" I asked her. I didn't know yet what my tight hold was doing to her but the jealousy I felt was enormous.Instead of confronting her with how jealous I was, I yelled at her and I could see she was hurt by all I had said.I didn't mean to say such to her. I was only blinded by the scene in the hall. She had seduced another guy before me. I just thought to myself, she should be doing that with me not with him. I wanted her to touch me.She was holding in her tears and I knew I was the cause of it not until she yelled out "Let go of my hand"Chelse
