*******Erica noticed how inquisitive he asked those questions, so she decided to ask. "You think he is your son?" He looked at her. "You don't have to worry about that, he doesn't in any way take after you. Or else, there is some thing you do know about the boy."Diana mentally thanked Erica for asking that question. She was constructing how she'd ask him that, but thankfully, Erica did it herself."There's only one person my instincts tell me about." He moves his gaze to Diana. "Did you observe any thing else about the boy?"Without thinking, Diana quickly said; "Yes, he has a scar on his forehead, it bears a Z form.""Then I am certain of who it is.""Who is it?" The two girls asked in unison."Luci.""Luci?" They chorused in shock. "How possible?"Derek glared at the two ladies, were they actually communicating the words to themselves?"We all know that both of them had nothing to do with each other. Elise was obviously into you which made her visit the sorceress, Luci on the othe
Anastasia finally fell asleep after thinking about what Draco said for a long while.****THE NEXT MORNING****Anastasia was already awake waiting for Draco to wake up, after some minutes of waiting for him he finally woke up.“Finally you're awake,” Anastasia said to Draco with her hands folded around her chest.“What is it?” Draco asked Anastasia while rubbing his eyes so he could open them. “What were you telling me last night?” Anastasia asked Draco, Draco turned to look at her unable to answer her question.“What do you mean?” it was the moment Draco asked her the question he remembered he told her something about Lucas last night.“Is this about what I told you last night?” Draco asked Anastasia.“Yes, it is.” Draco frowned the moment he realized it's because of it.“What? Didn't you tell me, you can not believe me? So why do you care all of a sudden?” Draco asked Anastasia, trying to sound angry.“Okay, fine. I'm sorry, I was too sleepy, that's why?” Anastasia lied immediately.
****"Luci's son… Lucas."Diana couldn't believe she was actually hearing those words from Derek. Why would he assume such a nasty thought about her daughter and Lucas? Besides, they are both kids, what do they know about the future? Even if Lucas does know, Anastasia doesn't."Why would you say that?" She questioned.He shrugged his shoulders. "My thoughts tho. Just guessing it all.""You're definitely joking, right? Of all things, all you have to assume is that kid is calling my daughter? For what? To become a devil's advocate like he is?"Derek never meant it to be the other way round, he was only expressing his thoughts about the whole stuff, and why little Ana seems inquisitive about some thing she shouldn't have been."Seriously, babe, I didn't mean it the way you think. I was only suggesting my thoughts about Ana's expression lately. Don't you think she seems suspicious?" "She was only being inquisitive, and desperately needs an answer to her doubts." She defended."Derek is r
It was reflective the way the moon rays shone through the blinds of the bedroom on his half naked body laying on the bed. The moon did well to paint his image on the wall as an artwork dipped into dark paint, and the breeze though whistling quietly did nothing to stop the sweat that was forming around his body.The candle flickered as the wind blew in again as he heaved peacefully in his sleep, Lucas turned and tossed but not fluttering his eyes . The unease he was feeling in his sleep was glaring to the peering eyes of the night that looked upon him and as he tossed and turned again heaving heavily, he slipped deeper to a conscious part of sleep, a Lucid dream.His eyes fluttered open almost at the same time with a single beat from his heart, he glanced around at the new unknown place he found himself. Lucas stood up glancing around again at the wilderness in his dream - a garden filled with dead roses with a dead fig tree right in the middle of the field.He walks around caref
The candle’s flame flickered in a bleak reminder of the false bright orange light it promises. Mesmerizing . As the Sheer curtains blew in the light summer breeze.It cast it glow on their faces highlighting it. The room was filled with their chattering, the rise and fall of their voices as they appeared to be in a very deep conversation.Derek's muffled words sounded from the chair where he sat. "A cool evening isn't it?"Erica mumbled in agreement, if there was anything she could say about that long day that had left her deep in thought it would definitely be that the evening was cooler than the rest of the evening over the last few days.A lot had been on her mind but she had been busy or rather both had been busy and were only seeing today at dinner."Derek." Erica whispered.Derek turned his face toward his sister to hear what she had to say. He knew what came with not giving adequate attention and was not ready for such drama. She was fumbling with a fork while trying to pick a
Diana couldn't believe her ears. She kept pondering her thoughts over and over again.She felt restless and breathless. The last thing she wanted was to get acquainted with that woman, that person that had ruined her mate's life, Derek.But what was the purpose of such intensity to meet up with Elise? There must be something fishy about this and she could swear it. "Diana!!" Erica called out worryingly. She had changed different sitting positions waiting impatiently for Diana to at least say something.Diana had been quiet for a long while now and it bothers her more than expected. There was silence rather. "Diana!!" She called out again. "Uhhmm" Diana gasped in shock and trembled out of her trance.Her eyes were still glinting with sadness as she now locked it on Erica. "What is it??" She asked, calming her nerves down.Silence followed a bit.Erica looked up and met her gaze, she ran out of words to say at that instance. The cold gaze Diana was having right now made her head ru
"No!! It can't be""Well yes, it is, just so you know you can't mess with my man ever again. Not that you could again because I will be sending you off to hell right now" "Just kill me" "You are accepting death already? Fascinating"Diana couldn't say more because there wasn't just anything to say. She felt entirely weak and accepted death immediately. She doesn't need to be told before knowing whose blood that could be.Elsie was evil just like her mate, the devil. The last thing she ever wanted to believe was that Elsie was good. It has now become clear to her that her instinct had been right all along.Elise moved forward and thrust the knife deep inside Daina, twisting it around its circle, rolling her flesh on the sharp edge of the knife before plunging it out again. "Ahhhh" Daina gasped and spewed blood out of her lips. The life force that was in her body started surging out and her eyes were sealed off close.An alarm started buzzing.Diana fluttered her eyes open in fear. S
**********“Everything is fine, it was only a dream.” Diana muttered to herself as she made her way to the bathroom, so she could brush her teeth. The fact that she was embarrassed by what Anastasia said didn't bother her. What was on her mind was how to stop her heart from beating fast. She had seen the children, and they were fine, but why wouldn't that fear leave her? Why was she still shaken by what happened?Another question that bothered her was why she would see Elise in her dream. As far as she knew, she had started her life afresh, and she had no business with this woman.“Are you okay?” Erica blocked her path. She hated how Diana looked like someone who just got beaten to a pulp in a fight.Diana slowly shook her head, not wanting to talk, in case Erica would be the next person to ask her to brush her teeth.She gestured, showing Erica that she would be right back. Rushing to her room, she flung the bathroom door open and picked up her brush and toothpaste from the brush hol
Elsie ran forth and crashed herself deep inside his arm. She cried a lot afterward. Just today, she was looking good. These were the most important people in her life, and they came right back up to her.Luci couldn't help but glint emotions in his eyes. How he had missed her for so long. There wasn't any day that passed by that he didn't think of her.“My love.” he called out again and cupped her face then placed a light kiss on her lips.Elsie couldn't help but return the kiss. It felt so emotional and embracing. The taste of his lips, how she had missed that for ages.“Uhmmm.” Lucas intruded with a cough to notify them of his presence.“Ooh my boy, come here.” luci spoke the moment he retracted his lips from Elsie's mouth.Lucas, who heard this quickly, rushed like a puppy to where his dad was and the three commenced a family hug.Luci then looked toward Derek, who had a blank expression on his face all this while. He moved over to Derek and offered a handshake. “Thank you for tak
“What are you doing? Do you have a death wish or what?” Zeus laughed out loud after seeing the foolish thing Lucas was doing.Lucas ignored him but kept on doing what he was doing, feeding his blood to the lake.Draco, who was by side, didn't stop him but stood still and was looking at the myth that would happen.Suddenly, in a blink of eyes the cursed lake disappeared. What was left was just a cocoon, just as Zeus said. Zeus was utterly shocked to see what just happened. He didn't realize such will even happen, neither did he think Lucas would be able to find his dad.Now Zeus was able to grasp that they weren't here to kill him, no they couldn't kill him, their main intention was to revive the devil.“You fool, are you going to keep on feeding him your blood? Even a demon won't survive that.” Zeus questioned.“No, the devil is already awake, the symbol on my head is the valid truth.” Lucas said while pointing an index finger at his forehead.Zeus brought his eyes forth only to see
“Yes, awakening the devil is their main target,” Elsie explained. Ana felt sad a little because out of everybody, she was the one who was kept in the dark for a long while. Moreover, after giving it a deep thought, she realized it was actually her fault instead. She was the one that left on early notice and didn't come back until few hours ago. “So what do we do now.” Erica chipped in. She was dead worried while standing by the side, was it just her or was everyone missing the boys too? “Let's just hope. If you know those two will be just fine.” Derek assured. They all sat down afterward and were drunk in their emotions. Diana was worse, she was holding the urge to not talk again if not only God knows what she might do at the moment. Just like Elsie, she would have done anything to save her son. Currently, she was even thinking of any possible way to go to the God's realm, to where her kid was, but there wasn't any possible way her head could think of. _____ Meanwhile, back in
Draco began to fall at high speed down their lake. He had a grin on his lips all this while as he was falling.Lucas was left puzzled by this. He stood at a spot, frozen, and was looking at how Draco was falling. Even Zeus on the other hand stopped attacking because he was shocked by what was going on at the moment.Suddenly, a bright light began to bubble just where Draco was, and then a howl was heard.Draco turned into his wolf fully and was having wings similarly to how Lucas was.His wolf flew upward and was at the same spot where Lucas was. Now both of them gazed dead at each other and unspoken words were being sent.“I have a plan, follow my lead.” Draco's Wolf spoke telepathically to Lucas. “Okay.” Lucas replied and smiled with his extremely long fangs.Zeus who was still a lightning and was thundering just up ahead became stupefied after seeing the drastic change of event just now.Suddenly, Lucas and the wolf began to change position while flying towards the sky, towards Ze
Zeus was just too strong. Whether they like it or not, he was so much for them and they were starting to realize it.His lightning that seemed to be nullified by Draco came right back because he was just too much to be suppressed. Him alone was a lightning, so there was no way he would be suppressed. The only one who had given him a tough time was the devil and that was why he made sure to cage him since he couldn't kill him. The devil was put in a deep slumber and there wasn't any way to wake him up.Draco leaped forward again, but this time multiple lightning arrows were being sent to him, rendering him vulnerable and smashing him to the floor.Zeus suddenly forged a lightning sword and aimed it at Draco to sever his neck. He flung it up at arm's length and slid it down but as expected, Lucas was there to intervene.He jumped right forward and used his foot to give a swipe attack on Zeus.It worked and soon after he ignited himself in flames and jumped towards Zeus again, flinging
Zeus was in shock after moving his eyes only to see that Clara was coming to attack him when he was just unto Lucas.Doesn't she know that her attack would also catch Lucas up in it? Does she care about Lucas' life? Zeus was deep thought, while he was stuck up inside the ice cocoon and wasn't able to get out.Clara landed a heavy blow on the cocoon, setting it up on fire with an enormous punch.She then leaped backwards a bit and nodded at Draco who was barely standing up. Earlier on when she offered him the plan he declined, but after she had stated all the virtual facts to him he had no choice but to oblige. “Now what's next?” Draco asked Clara. “I don't know, we should just wait,” Clara replied with an unsettled expression.She hadn't felt at ease and Draco should know that more.The cocoon blazed in fire for a long while before it exploded. Zues were caught up in it, but that wasn't enough to kill someone like him.Suddenly, the entire place turned white and there was a rain of
“You deserve to be punished for being weak.” Zeus mumbled while looking dead at Draco who just received a fatal blow from him. “The only one that deserves to die here is you.” Draco replied but weakly. He could feel his breath running low while his eyes were threatening to shut themselves close.He never felt he would be brought to his knees the way he was now. Furthermore, he traced the bolt of lightning that was still in his chest, and blood poured out of his chest.“You can never beat me whether you like it or not.” Zeus brushed it off with a smile.Only he had defeated all the previous Gods, so how will a commoner like Draco and Lucas ever think of beating a God like him?“You must still die.” Draco fired back at him, and it made Zeus more pissed than how he was. This time what Zeus gave him wasn't just a lightning bolt, but rather he gave Draco a rain of lightning bolt.“Ahh.” Draco shouted but couldn't fight back. Hus' body was going through electrocution and his skin was burni
The question alone made the blue-haired man chuckle more than normal. “Isn't that obvious? It's because your powers are defenseless against mine.” he replied, making Lucas smile more. He was finding this man more of a mystery than he thought.Such a foolish assumption and it would surely lead to his death. “And what are my powers that make you think you are the right opponent for me?” Lucas asked with a smile. Steadily, he teleported and appeared just behind the blue-haired man, startling him to the bone.“You are a creature of hell, and I am that of ice.” he ran his mouth off but fear suddenly came to his body because of how sudden Lucas was able to move freely from place to place, escaping even his eyes.He was now doubting that maybe the intel he received wasn't as valid as he anticipated but nevertheless it still meant nothing because in this domain of his, no one can harm him or do anything. Only his powers are absolute here.“Ooh and you think ice will be able to stop me?” Lu
Silence followed just after Zeus spoke. Elise began to think what his condition might be, besides it wasn't as if she got anything aside herself to offer.“And what's the condition?” She asked.“I get to keep your son for myself.” Zeus replied in a cunning voice.“For what?” Elsie asked again, confused. She knew Zeus will always have something up his sleeve, or else he wouldn't just ask for something that wouldn't be of use to him. “He has potential, and he is also a descendant of the Gods, so I believe he has much more to offer.” Zeus explained. “No, there's no way I can offer my son to you.” Elsie rejected.She couldn't just bring herself to give off the one person she would die to protect. Zeus was the one that put the devil into a deep slumped so maybe that would be his intention towards Lucas too if he gets a grip on him. “You don't want to, but you have too, Lucas is already in my realm, so I can take him whenever I want.” Zeus grinned off.“You won't take my son from me Zeus
