“Don’t you think we should suspend this interrogation? Darin will be here soon and we need to be there.” Oliver said.“What else do I have to know about this charlatan?!” Seth shouted, totally ignoring what Oliver just said.“I…I promise. I’ve told you all that I know. If you’re gonna kill me, just do so. I’m feeling very lightheaded in this position.” Bob said.Seth had tied him upside down, his two legs were tied to a strong pole and his head was facing the ground. Oliver disapproved but Seth insisted and carried on with it saying he needed extreme measures to bring out the truth from the man.“Seth, I guess he’s saying the truth. How can he lie in this condition?” Oliver whispered into Seth’s ear.“You don't understand, Oli. You’re not the one who has someone going around the town with your name and face. I wonder how long this has been going on.” Seth said, staring blankly at Bob whose face had turned red like it was going to explode any minute.“Don’t you dare touch him, Oli. I’m
Jordan closed his eyes, took a deep breath and pointed his right index finger in an open space, and started turning it, slowly as though he was drawing a circle in the air.Little light flashes started to flicker as Jordan increased his pace.“1900, come to me.” Jordan said and immediately, the portal opened.“That’s it, that’s her! Yvette!” Darin said, almost moved to tears.“You have to go in now, I can’t hold it for too long.” Jordan said as he struggled to keep the portal open.“Wendy, Matthew, now!” West said.Minx immediately rushed out of the garden to signal her mother to start her support just like she promised to.“Is Jordan doing okay?” Mrs. Jackson said.“Yes, but the portal is too strong, it holds a lot of memories and it’s difficult to hold. He needs your help.” Minx said.“Okay, you can go back inside. I can handle this.” Mrs. Jackson said.“Thank you, mom.” Minx said and hugged her.“Come on, let’s go. It’s strong enough.” West said to Darin who was already inside ther
“You wanted to be with me forever right? This is the only way.” Yvette said and smiled.“Yvette? Why? I…I… Could have brought you back to life.” Darin said as he struggled to breathe. Tears rolled down his eyes as he stared at Yvette in disbelief. He slowly crawled away from Yvette.“Now, we’re even.” Yvette said.“What do you mean? I didn’t mean to do it, and you know it.” Darin said as his hand trailed up to his chest where the stake was pierced.“West? West? Please get me out of here. I should not have come here in the first place.” Darin whispered as he gasped for breath.“You are stupid.” West said.“Huh! What happened? How did you get that in your chest? What’s going on?” Yvette gasped as she ran toward Darin where he lay, fighting for his life.“Don’t touch me. I should have let you be instead of chasing after you all this time. You had to kill me to make your point right?” Darin said as he cried.“I can never do you any harm. I don’t know how this happened, my love. One moment
“Jordan will be fine. He just has to rest a lot. A lot of energy has gone out from him but don’t worry, I’ll take care of him throughout this period.” Dr. Bennett said.“Thank you very much. What about the others? Please check on them.” Seth said.“Dad? When you did you get here?” Minx said.“Not quite long ago. How did he get here? I saw him on my way here with a lot of dignitaries and paparazzi and uhhh journalists and a lot of people. It looked like there was a show going on. I managed to walk up to him to remind him that today is the big day. He said that I belong in the crowd and I should never come that close to him again. I was surprised and so I left. Seeing him here is surprising.” Mr. Jackson said.“What are you saying, dad? He has been here since it all started. I’m sure there is a mistake somewhere.” Minx defended.“I’m sure of what I’m saying. I saw him and he knows it. You can ask him yourself.” Mr. Jackson said.“This is escalating quickly. It appears that someone is pa
It was getting late, Mr. and Mrs. Jackson were about leaving, Jordan still hasn’t woken up, Dr. Bennett said that she would be fine but Minx didn’t seem to buy it. She was in great panic and distress.Wendy and Matthew had recovered, and not much energy was lost from them. Mrs. Jackson didn’t need to rest, she didn’t feel weak at all. She was just consoling Minx and assuring her that Jordan would be fine.“When will he wake up? I’m starting to worry.” Minx said.“Honestly, I don’t know. I’m not a witch doctor. But all his vitals are intact, he should be fine soon.” Dr. Bennett said.“Mom, dad, do you know any witch doctor? I can’t just leave my son’s life to chance. I never wanted this to happen in the first place, now, see.” Minx said as she cried.She looked very tired and worn out but she was reluctant to give in to the needs of her body. All she wanted was to see her baby hale and hearty again.“All the witch doctors we know are wolf blood witches and you know what will happen if
“All you need to know is that he’s with Yvette. They have something beautiful going on. I had to ruin it, he killed my daughter. But if Yvette attends to him on time, she can have him for herself forever.” West said.“Oops but okay. Great talk. I have to head back inside.” Gabriel said dismissively and left.West didn’t understand why Gabriel acted that way but he didn’t bother to ask him why. He was going to leave the next day anyway, there was no need for bonding.Gabriel was going to check on Jordan. He remembered that he had not seen Minx for a while and wondered if she was still crying and waiting for Jordan to wake up. He knew how stubborn Minx could be at times.**“What if John knows what is going on? We should invite him for a chat as soon as possible.” Oliver said.“Yes, he should be on his way now. I asked William to bring him. I thought he was nominated because he had the leverage to ask more than three questions, looked like he had other things up his sleeves and I can’t
“In cases like this, it’s never thorough. It’s either he’s Seth’s identical twin or he’s a shifter. I’m definitely rooting for the fact that he’s a shifter. Why else would he bear Seth’s name?” West said.“I don’t know yet. By next week, we will find out more about him. For now, I have an assignment to do.” Gabriel said.“Okay then. By tomorrow, I’ll be leaving for Seattle. It’s been a week already.” West said.“B-but you have an idea of what is going on. You can help us, please don’t go yet.” Gabriel said.“Aurora is waiting for me, and I miss her very much.” West said.“Ohhh uhhmm… Okay, let’s go and tell my dad what you just said. He may get an idea or two from it.” Gabriel said.“Okay.” West said.“I’ll see you tomorrow. Please, sleep soundly and don’t worry about Minx, she’ll be fine.” Gabriel said to Minx’s parents and left.“What’s he doing here?” Daisy said with a disgusted look.“He has something to tell dad regarding this present crisis.” Gabriel said.“You must feel like a
“Can we see John now? This is getting scary.” Oliver said.“I’ll see if I can wake him up.” Gabriel said and left for John’s room.“So, if the shifter succeeds in taking Seth’s body, what will become of Seth then?” Oliver said.“He will remain a wolf forever. Shifters are creatures that need to steal other people’s identities to belong. The true forms of some shifters can leave you petrified for a whole week. The worst are the changelings, they are strange three-legged animals with green fur, a pair of wings, a purple head, and big black eyes.” West said.“Please tell me you just made that up. What sort of a thing is that?”Daisy said.“I think there could be some kind of exaggeration. I only ever saw it in a book and it was so scary. The artist must be very talented. But that’s not the point, I think whatever kind of shifter that's behind this has to be a hellion.” West said.“Clearer terms please.” Daisy said as she rolled her eyes.“What I mean is the hellions are very powerful and
