"Good morning."
I stared at him lazily.
"I'm not yet done preparing. Why are you here already, it's still earl-"
"Now, where is the kitchen again? I'll cook for you while you're preparing."
He didn't even let me finished and barged in the house without hesitating.
"What's gotten into you?" I asked suspiciously, raising an eyebrow at him while I follow Kieve on the kitchen. He quickly wear the apron and started preparing. I can't see his expression because his back is facing me.
"Why? Is it bad to cook for my wife?"
"Why do you keep calling me your wife? It's annoying." He shot a glance at me and returned chopping the ingredients.
"But you're grinning from ear to ear." His words made me frozen still. I quickly put on a straight face as I felt blood rushing through my cheeks out of embarrassment.
What in the world is wrong with me?! I didn't even know I was smiling like an idiot! I cleared my throat and started pr
A loud explosion rang sharply in my ears, making me sprung my eyes shot as I quickly gasped for air. The ground shook, making some of my belongings fall down, making a clanging sound as it hit the ground. I can hear screams and cries outside, making my heart pound heavily. I gulped nervously, quickly dashing outside as each step made me feel more fear. My whole body was trembling and yet I forced myself to move, my legs felt numb but I kept running to where the explosion happened. A lot of the students went running away from where the incident happened, bumping on my shoulder as I tried to get there as fast as I can. But I felt shivers run down my spine as I saw what happened from afar. My tracks stopped, panting heavily as beads of cold sweat ran down my forehead. This is bad. The back portion of the school was completely destroyed. I couldn't help but cough as the smoke mixed with dust started to fill my lungs.
"He called them the-""Four Generals." We both muttered simultaneously, the three of us meeting each other's gaze as tension filled our system.Since we are both sharing the same thoughts, memories, and feelings, it was not hard to read each other. I can feel the immense power coursing right through my body, wanting to go rampant as I tried hard to control myself."Calm down, Victoria/Harper." I heard their voices on my mind, making me heave a sigh and tried to focus more."Worry about yourself," I replied through our minds and quickly lunged towards the enemies, leaving the two of them behind."Don't be too reckless!" Laurent yelled at me from behind, quickly following but I ignore his words.I completely am aware of what I am doing right now.
Now, don't ever let go of my hand unless you want to be trapped behind this door forever." He was dead serious, so I nodded though I don't really follow.The door automatically opened on its own, it slowly moved, making a creaking sound. The inside was pitch black. I squinted my eyes but still failed to see amid the darkness before me.The stranger pulled me in and the door behind us closed on its own. The moment I heard him snapped his fingers, the lamps hanging on the walls flickered.Is this really the afterlife? It's so different from the movies with all the white stuff and neat-looking settings. This looks like a vintage place that existed in the Victorian Era.I scanned the long hallway and all I can see are peculiar paintings o

"Why can't you just ask Ms. Kase to do this job?" I complained as I tug my black pencil skirt neatly. I crossed my arms and raise my eyebrows. "She's your secretary after all."I don't know why but I started to get annoyed at him. He never told me yesterday that I will wait for a couple of hours while never knowing what in the world is that 'business' he had to do with Ms. Kase.I mean, I felt out of place!A smirk pappeared on his face as he started walking towards me. I raised my guard immediately and took few steps backward.Mother of cow, my back already met the wall.He put his arms on the wall, making me unable to escape. He was too close I started having trouble in breathing."W-what?""Are you jealous?"

It was destroyed like it was attacked by a huge comet, fire was blazing around, crackling as its heat went
"Hey, put that over here. I am telling you here!" Levy grunted in annoyance, her nostrils fuming with anger. She glared at Flynn who was scratching the back of his head, laughing nervously.Flynn was one of the wizards who were helping to put everything back in order. They are using their abilities to let things float in mid air, making the work easier and faster."Okay, since you are handsome, I will let you off the hook! Now, put it in here! Faster!" She commanded.She looks like a cruel tyrant who was working her servants to death.Poor wizards."Who put Levy in charge of the ruined buildings?"I asked, frowning as I saw how she almost hit one of the wizards in the head.
"No, not like that!" I heaved a sigh for the nth time, staring with a deathly glare towards Kieve.For the 13th time,failed."Harper my hand is hurting. Can we do this next time?" He was looking at me like he was in great pain I almost believe him.Wow, look at the puppy eyes he is making. I would never have thought I would see him acting like this."No, you can't fool me. You have to master this today.""Why should I? We can just get some delivery foods. It is faster and less hassl-"He shut his mouth tigt when I slowly turned my head at him with an intent glare. Plus, I was hold
