“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
“I can’t tell for sure. No one knows if he’s a werewolf or a shifter. He didn’t stay in the pack house with us and not everyone was aware of this though. They just thought that the baby belonged to George and Rose and the baby died.“It was some of his most trusted friends in the council and few servants that knew what actually happened and George made us swear to never say a word about it to anyone. I would have easily carried the secret to my grave but you needed to hear it and that’s it.” John said.“Just when I thought we had a lead, we’re back to this. Shit!” Oliver cussed.“You have a lead. You know that it’s a shifter that sole Seth’s identity and bit some an absurd twin.” John said.“Did you ever see Kyle’s true form? Or do you know the kind of shifter he is? It would help us know what his agenda is.” West said.“Who just said that? Can Seth speak in this form?” John said, almost freaking out.“No, it’s West. He’s hiding behind the wardrobe. He’s scared of Seth.” Daisy said.“
It was morning already, Gabriel could swear that he just closed his eyes a few seconds ago and now, Minx was waking him up and telling him that it was 8 already.“Shit!” Gabriel groaned as he got off the bed. Minx had intentionally left the curtains open so the sun could peer at his face.“It’s 8 already? I didn’t even get enough sleep.” Gabriel muttered.“I can help you relax,” Minx said and pecked his cheek.“Anything but coffee, please,” Gabriel said.“Nope, something better,” Minx whispered.“I could do a lot of bad things to you right now but maybe later, when you’re back.” Minx said in a slutty tone as she closed the distance between them and kissed him. Gabriel responded immediately and kissed her hungrily.He placed her against the wall as he kissed her neck and enjoyed the low growls and moans that escaped her lips.“I’m sorry babe, but I’ll have to end this quickly, I have an appointment.” Gabriel whispered as he undid his buttons and took off his briefs.Minx was wearing
“Jordan is awake!” Daisy announced the moment she got to Gabriel and Minx’s room where they were.“Really? That’s amazing!” Minx jumped up and hurried to Jordan’s room to see him. Gabriel immediately followed behind. Daisy went ahead to get something for Jordan to eat.“Oh my baby. You’re awake. I was so worried about you.” Minx said as she knelt close to Jordan’s bed and touched his face.“How are you, Jordan?” Gabriel said as he stood close to Jordan’s bed smiling.“I feel a little stronger but I’m hungry as hell.” Jordan said.“Okay, that’s new, where did you learn that?” Gabriel said.“Gab, just cut him some slack, he just woke up. He provably isn’t thinking.” Minx defended.“If you say so. Don’t worry, your grandmother is bringing you some food.” Gabriel said and kissed his forehead.“I wish I could spend the day with you but I’m already late for my appointment. But don’t worry, your mother and your grandmother will be here, okay?” Gabriel said.“What about grandpa?” Jordan said.
“I’m serious, I don’t know. We’ve been so busy, trying to find who this charlatan that stole my father’s face is that we do not have time for anything else. I said it before and I’ll say it again, help us to help you. We are just as affected by him, if not more.” Gabriel said.“Okay, I’ll tell you.” Simon said and sat down.“I have lost everything… I have a lawsuit against me, the people think I slept with the senator’s wife so that I’d pass the judgment in her favor. It looks like an affair. I didn’t do that, he did. I’m on the verge of losing my career and my marriage because of that sick bastard.” Simon said as he sobbed.“What does he want from you?” West said.“He just wants to destroy me. He said I destroyed him but I don’t even know him, I had never met him until three months ago when he became a rising star out of the blue. “He knows a lot of people and has a lot of friends in high places and so, I agreed to be friends with him when he asked. That was it until he started acti
Oliver helped John prepare and pack the necessary things they needed for the journey and soon, they were on their way.“If we ever meet Layla, don’t speak to her unless she speaks to you. She could be quite irritable.” John said.“Okay… I know you’d do the talking, I’m just here to make sure that you get there in one piece.” Oliver said.“Okay then, if you say so. Did you bring the shirt that I asked you to bring?” John said.“Yes, I did. What’s it for? Oliver said.“I don’t know exactly but one time, when she was trying to track down a shifter that stole a person’s identity, she asked for some of the person’s personal belongings. I just asked you to bring it in case she needs it.” John said.“Okay, I hope this works out fine. I feel we don’t have much time.” Oliver said.“Exactly, don’t say that to her hearing. Don’t speak at all… I’ll handle everything.” John said and smiled briefly.“Okay…” Oliver whispered.It was a long flight to Seattle and by the time they arrived, it was alrea
“Please, Layla, my cousin needs your help. I’m sorry for what John did to you but I need your help. You are the only one who is so knowledgeable about shifters. My cousin is stuck in his wolf form and we just have a few hours to the full moon, and we would be useless to him.“Please, we can’t lose him, I can’t lose him. He’s a wonderful person and he doesn’t deserve to die like that. Please, whatever you want, just state it and we’ll make it happen.” Oliver begged as he fell to his knees crying.Both Layla and John were surprised by his gesture. She immediately took pity on him.“You know, I’ve never had anyone that gave a shit about me, someone who was scared of losing me, someone who would give anything just to make me happy. I wish I had that, I wish I had someone who I had that kind of relationship with. I thought my daughter would be that person but she died a long time ago.” Layla said and paused.“She died? I’m so sorry about that. I understand how you must feel.” Oliver said
So uhh how do we end this shifter? I think ordinary methods wouldn’t do it, right.” Oliver said.“You’re correct. This silver dagger would kill him. But you have to hit his heart directly. I once used it on him, I dug it into his neck, and he was asleep for a week, it was supposed to be longer but he’s very powerful. I doubt if this would work if it’s stabbed in any other part of his body, it has to be his heart.” Layla said.“Oh, great. I would contend with a shifter who has evolved and stab him in the chest, great. Very easy.” Oliver said, trying to control his tension.“Technically, yeah. It’s the only way or your friend dies.” Layla said, holding the dagger up.Oliver wanted to put in a word or two for John but they didn’t have the time for that and it wasn’t his fault that their daughter died. If he were there, it would not have happened though because he would not have taken Kyle’s child in.“Can I have the dagger?” Oliver said. Although the basement was below the surface and he
