"My lord, your mother is here to see you." she said out loud.I looked at her with a frown and looked in. I could see his shadow approaching.

Her mind becomes so calm even though she wasn't expecting him."I can see you both are getting along well," with a smile on Danny's cheeks he said.Those words gently sift into Sharon's ears. She smiled at him, "why won't we get along so well, Danny! He needs more attention now," she melted those words out of her lips like she cared that much.Danny nodded his head with a gentle sigh. He fixed his gaze on Darius immediately, "how are you feeling now?" He said. Darius smiled, "I am all good now, Danny!

"I'm fine," she said, "Just a little tired."Orion nodded, a look of concern etched on his face. "We need to get you healed as soon as possible," he said.Skyler furrowed her brows, confusion written on her face. "Healed? What do you mean?"Orion sighed, "I don't want to worry you, but your injury is worse than we thought. We need to take you to someone who can help you."Skyler's heart skipped a beat. "What kind of injury is it?" she asked, fear creeping into her voice.Orion hesitated for a moment before answering, "It's a deep wound. It needs to be treated by a healer.

Orion woke up early the next morning, his mind already focused on the training that awaited him. He knew he had to be in his best form for the upcoming fight with his brother, and so he got dressed and headed out to the training grounds.As he arrived, he looked around, taking in the surroundings. The training grounds were vast, with several different areas designated for various types of training. There were areas for combat training, areas for physical conditioning, and areas for weapons training.Orion began his warm-up routine, stretching his muscles and preparing his body for the intense workout to come.

Noticing his gaze, his mother felt inconvenient, "why are you staring at me like that?" She forced those words out of her lips at least to caution him."Oh… was i?" the question she asked called him back from the wonderland. He didn't realize he was staring that much."Yes you are. You are so damn lost in the fantasy," Danny cut into the conversation of the two, making what he had done clear to him. He couldn't help but to make a joke of him."Come on Danny!" He let those words slip out of his lips as gestured with his right hand. Danny didn't add another word to what he had earlier said.

She immediately denied it, 'no… it mustn't be.'While she was still in thoughts, she heard the sound of a car stopping at the entrance of their house. 'Speak of the devil. I guess that must be him,' she expelled from her gentle sharp voice but all within her heart.S
