Chapter 89Christine’s POV“Watch, he is going to drop right now” I said with a grin on my face as I watched the drunk man stagger down the road. While Jace and I watched from a distance. The lad eventually dropped and I cheered.Jake shook his head. “He hesitated. You said right now”“It’s practically the same thing dude”“Oh don’t sweat it” he threw the cigarette he had on his lips. “Are you coming?” he asked, already walking to where the man was laid.“Common Jace are we going to feed on him?”“He is a gift from the heaven and yet you ask such a question?”“It’s better when they are awake. I like to watch them struggle” I smiled and he smiled back“Sometime I feel so proud of how far you have gone in this”I smirked as I walked toward him. “Don’t you miss the whining baby anymore?”“Oh we should stop this, it feels so wrong, you fucking turned me to a monster” he mimicked me in a high pitched voice and I smacked him hard on the shoulder.“Ouch” he glared at me. “Easy, vampires have
Ken’s POVBeing starved wasn’t the the first thing that they did to me. the constant spraying of vervain on me made it even worse for me. Marcus already had me. what I didn’t understand was why he continuously did this to torture me. I sat weakly on the floor with my two hands chained. Where I was in a dark room that stank so badly. It was so small and hot too. they had kept me there for a week and I hadn’t gotten a taste of blood. Now imagine how tired I had been. It was hard to even stand up properly. To seat was an equal war The door to my cell opened and I thought the guards have come as usual to give me my daily dose of vervain. I was surprised when they started undoing the shackle that had held me bound. Effortlessly the two guards jacked me and dragged me toward the door because I couldn’t feel my legs so walking was a bit hard for me. they led me through the hallway and I couldn’t count how many times I stubbed my toes on the hard surface. With the way my legs stung, I
Chapter 91Ken’s POV“psst” I heard from the the door of the cell I was kept in. At first I thought it was my imagination because it was highly unlikely for the guards to call me like that. They’d usually just walk in and drag me out in the most ruthless way ever. Each time I heard the door open, I always braced myself to be man handled by them.“Psst” I heard again and I knew I wasn’t imagining the sound. Slowly I dragged myself of the floor up until the length of the chain restricted me from reaching the door. I groaned in frustration because each time I tried to push past my limit, the shackle strapped firmly to my wrist dug into my already sore wrist, causing my injury to sting the more.“What the fuck do you want” I let out in rage and frustration“Relax it me Christine” I heard and my anger was pacified almost immediately.“Christine. How did you make it past the guards” the last time I checked, the place was heavily guarded with guards and I didn’t think they’d willingly let so
Chapter 92Ken’s POV“psst” the moment I heard that sound my eyes flung open like it was rebooted by it. I sat up from where I was laid and when I heard it again, I was certain that it belonged to Christine. I moved more closely to the door. As far as my chain could take me and when my wrist began to sting again, I had to stop.“Christine” I called out, keeping my voice as low as possible to prevent being heard.“I got the keys” she announce and my heart leaped for joy. But I couldn’t see to understand she was able to get em“How did you…” she didn’t me finish before cutting me shut.“We don’t have the time for this” she said and I kept shut.It didn’t take long before I heard the sound of keys jiggling. I felt anxious because I knew for a fact that if she was caught, it was going to be the end for her.It took a while, but the huge door blocking me freedom clicked as the key rotated inside of it. I knew it was too fast, but I could already smell my freedom from where I was.She opene
Chapter 93 When I heard Xavier said those words, I scoffed because it seemed like a joke to him. “Why the fuck would you tell me that, just get me away from” I asked because he made no sense. How the fuck was Ken. He had to be the strongest guy I have ever met. I had a mentality that nothing could kill him.“Yeah I found it hard to believe too. He is gone” he said and with the look in his eyes, it was obvious he wasn’t lying at all. I really hoped so because how much I shook at the mention of that.“But he is a vampire, isn’t it?”“He was starved before he was killed and the overlain only made thing worse” he added and that only made me feel worse. How was I supposed to survive, knowing fully well that one of my mate had dies? No wonder I felt unease all through the week and I had the impulse to check on him.“Who did it?”“Marcus did” he said and with that he walked out. At first tears trickled down my cheek, then I realized the tears didn’t make me feel eased at all. I placed my ha
94After much thought about If I was doing the right thing or not, I finally decided to knock and wait for the worse to happen. I knocked the first time, but nothing happened. Maybe I didn’t knock well enough. I thought. I knocked the second time and while my hand was still colliding with the door, it opened an nd I almost fell right in.Standing in front of my was Frederick sister, not him. Words couldn’t explain how much I was relieved to see her instead of him.“What the fuck are you doing here” she drew closer to me as she whispered. At the same time looking around in apprehension. It was obvious she was afraid for me.“I am here with questions” I blurted out and with the dead stares she sent in my direction gave me the cue that she was mad I even decided to show up after all“Do you want to die? You better leave before Frederick gets you. The fact that he isn’t looking for doesn’t mean he doesn’t still want you” she said still looking around to probably see if her brother was any
Kira’s pov“I am not coming to your boyfriend’s house” I made it clear to Christine over the phone.“Jace is not my boyfriend” she defended herself.“Oh that’s his name. Well whatever he is to you, I am not coming to that house” I said with all seriousness, but she ended up chuckling. It wasn’t as though I hated him. He just had a way of making me feel so uncomfortable. His eyes held a lot of hatred each time he gave up at me and I couldn’t help but wonder why Christine saving me pissed him off so much.“He is not home and he not coming back anytime soon, so you have nothing to worry about” she assured him.“I am not just not comfortable with him around” I said truthfully.“He is not always like this, inside he is just a cute bunny” she said and I rolled my eyes.“I knew you’d say something like that. Anyway imp almost there”“Alright” she hung up the call.After about 5 minutes, I was already at Christine’s house. I packed my car by the road side and made it across the street.Standi
Chapter 96I turned to leave but he didn’t let me. He pulled me back to look at him. At that point, my cheeks where soaked in tears. I didn’t wipe it off before the sped he used to pull me back deterred me from doing so. His eyes softened the more when he noticed I was crying.“Do you realize how worried I was about you” he asked and I just sobbed. Not caring if we were being stared at. “I went to your house several times and your mother wouldn’t even let me see you”I placed my hand on my head as I sighed. Poor woman. She must have gone through a lot. Now I was planning of leaving her again. No wonder there was a lot of hurt in her eyes as she yelled at me. “She was just scared” I blurted out.“So where did you go Mirabel” he asked more worriedly because I wouldn’t give him a reply.“Can we talk outside instead? I am not comfortable with these stares” I said and I noticed how reluctant he was. Almost as though he didn’t trust me enough to stay put and have a conversation with him out
FinaleThe next morning I woke up to a text from Christine that read; “come online” I still had a lot of sleep in my eyes, but when I was able to check why she told me to come online, the sleep left my eyes. It felt as though I was dreaming, but I wasn’t. Behold, behind my screen was my older self and there was a caption that said missing.What the actual fuck? I asked myself. The last time I checked, I didn’t exist anymore, so there was no was no way someone who didn’t exist was declared missing.I called Christine again because it wasn’t adding at all. The worse thing was, it was all over the internet. They said I had been missing for 6 months and that was the duration in which I had lived in my new body.“Did you see the girl? Remember her right? She asked even before I had the chance to and that only succeeded in adding to my confusion.“Remember? Christine you were the one who said you didn’t know this girl” I remembered vividly when I asked her the first time I happened to find
The other half of me My leg was placed on the edge of the window, ready to jump out when I heard a beep from my phone and I stopped. I brought it out from where I kept it firmly in my pockets and answered the call. it was from Christine. “Mirabel” she called out the moment I answered the call. “ken is awake,” she said and my heart skipped a beat. What the fuck did she say. How was that even possible? I asked myself. Well, there was only one way for me to find out. I ended the call and was about to jump down from my window once more when the door to my room suddenly opened. My mind jumped out of my body, but it calmed down when I realize it was just Rebecca, but it picked up pace when I realize I was about to do something that she had warned me not to do. “what are you doing?” she asked and I knew it was already late. If I wanted to see ken, I had to make up my mind to go against her. “I’m sorry mum,” I said and jumped down and landed perfectly from a building as high as that with
Kira’s POV“I have to tell you something” I said to Christine, but didn’t realize I was yelling. She almost choked on the cigarette between her lips.“What the fuck Kira” she frowned at me, but I didn’t care. I was desperate at that point.“I need to tell you something” I repeated like she hadn’t heard me the first time. How desperate was I. but why I wouldn’t when I got the news of me leaving this body? I needed to let her know incise me bumped into her in my next life, she wouldn’t see me as a freak.I looked around to see if there was anyone lurking around because I was most definitely going to be called a freak if they heard what I was about to say. I was certain Christine was going to think of me the same way, but I had to tell her.“I am right here” the frown on her face hardened and I had to mutter a little sorry to make her be less mad at me for almost killing her seconds ago.“I am living this body” I said in the lowest tone possible” I said, but the look on her face didn’t c
Chapter 100I boiled in rage as I ran to where Xavier was. He could hear me calling but he chose to play deaf and pretend I was important at all and it pissed me off.I tapped him hard on the shoulder when I got to where he was and he turned to look at me in frustration. “Don’t you dare look at me like that? I am the one who has the right to be angry” I said and he rolled his eyes at me as though I was the one who had the problem. He was the one trying to take my mate away from me.“you can't tell me how to look at you” he shot at me. true, but there was countless way he didn’t have to act like a jerk. Why did he have to be so mean all the time, like I was the cause of his many problems?Where are you taking ken to?” I asked he replied plainly and tried to walk inside the car, but I stopped him by holding his hand. He turned to look at me with a lot of disgust in his eyes.“do you seem to realize you have no right to be a part of his life anymore,e,” he said and I scoffed.What
Chapter 99 “hey you” my feet went as fast as they could at the sight of the witch. I totally forgot I had to follow Christine home at the sight of her and I started chasing after her instead. The sound of shuffling footsteps gave me the clue that Christine was just behind me running as well. “Hey!” I knew she could hear me because she wasn’t deaf and had no earphone plugged in, but she kept walking as though she didn’t know I was talking to her. Why did she have to be a bitch all the time_ the kind that knew the perfect way to get me mad I increased my speed and surprisingly that bitch increased her speed? Before I knew it, she was running and I knew I would be damned if I let her run off like that. I and Christine also increased our speed. “Hey stop!” I yelled. It would have been better if I at least knew her name, but I didn’t and that made it weird for me. She kept running until she got into the school female’s toilet and she ran in. “what the actual fuck” said Christine who w
Chapter 98I didn’t sleep a wink at night. Apart from the fact I was angry at the witch for playing with me the previous day. I couldn’t also sleep due to the strong migraine I developed due the beating I received from Bella. I shouldn’t have concluded that I was any match for her.“Oh my God what happened to your face?” I heard a voice and I turned to look at Christine. I had no idea I had walked past her. My mind was only fixed on one person and that was the witch who I didn’t know her name.And yes, I had forgotten to put makeup on my face because I didn’t see the point. Life was almost meaningless because ken wasn’t there.“I got into a fight” I could tell from how her eyes widened that she was surprised. Yes I wasn’t the type to get into a fight, but with the overwhelming frustration and unvented anger, it was hard not lose my mind over a slight provocation.“What the actual fuck” she let out.“Ken’s sister” I let out a distressed air. “That bitch thinks I am the reason he didn’t
Chapter 97Bella’s POVIt was hours since I woke up and I hadn’t moved an inch from my bed. Life made no sense to me anymore. It felt as though I should lay in my bed forever and wallow in my misery for eternity. Maybe that way, I will be closer to my brother who was not awake anymore. I tossed to the other side of my bed as I heard a buzz from my phone. It was no doubt from Xavier. He was probably calling to check if I was still breathing.I ignored the text at first but when I became too much, I groaned in frustration as I tossed to pick it up. “Bella for fuck sake, if you won’t take my call, at least reply my text” he said and I rolled my eyes. Did he expect me to be okay when I had a brother that was prone to be lifeless for almost 20 years or even more?The moment I tossed my phone to the bed in anger, I heard it ring by my side. “Fuck you Xavier” I groaned in frustration, but didn’t ignore the call this time. I knew he was going to keep calling me until I finally took the call,
