“Oh really? That's great news, brother. Congratulations, I’m happy for you.” Gordon said.“Yeah, thanks, man. I can’t wait to see him, and Minx too. Will you go with me? I’m going tomorrow.” Gabriel said.“Sure! Anything for the youngest father in town!” Gordon said as he popped the champagne that Gabriel had bought earlier for the celebration.“Amanda will come too, right?” Gabriel said.“Sure, I’ll tell her right away.” Gordon said and picked up his phone to dial Amanda’s number.“Heyy… Amanda, what’s up?” Gordon shouted a little so that Amanda could hear him as the music in the background was loud.“Something's up, Gordon. I don’t know how it happened but Richard is dead and Marcus, is in critical condition.” Amanda panicked.“What?! Why are you just telling me? How did this happen?” Gordon said.“I was going to call you before you did. His parents just arrived from their vacation and saw them both lying lifeless on the ground. It’s been two days since they were in that state. The
“What’s wrong? You two don’t seem as excited as me.” Amanda said as they drove down to their pack house.“Everything is fine, Amanda. Thanks for asking.” Gabriel said hurriedly. The last thing he wanted was for Gordon to say a word about what happened yesterday. Amanda would seriously scold him.“Sure?” Amanda said, turning to Gordon.“Yeah, yeah… We’re good. I’m just nervous to see the baby, yunno.” Gordon said.“If I didn't grow up with the both of you, I would have believed these flimsy lies. Now, start talking. Today is supposed to be a happy day, I don’t want your stupid fights to ruin this day for me and my Godchild. Okay? I’m serious, start talking.” Amanda said.“Gabriel, go first.” Amanda said.There was no need for Gabriel to pretend anymore, Amanda could read them like a book. He also didn’t want to lie.“I messed up yesterday. I uhhh I… had sex with someone else. I’m not proud of it and Gordon has refused to speak to me since then.” Gabriel said.“Okay… What about you, Gor
“You’re back, West. How are you you? Did you find her?” Wendy said the moment she saw West entering the house. She was seated outside, close to the entrance of the door.West had been away for a week. He didn’t seem as happy as he was when he embarked on the journey. Wendy could guess the outcome of the search but she allowed him to speak.“I couldn’t find her. She isn’t in their records.” West said.“How do you mean? How do you know that?” Wendy said.“I checked the date that Roman took my child away. If he put her in an orphanage, it would have been there. I cross-checked all the dates of admission but none of them seemed.m close. The closest one to the date when my daughter was taken away was a year after and it would impossible for Roman to have the child in his custody for a whole year. Except he killed her, to punish me eternally.” West said as tears rolled down his eyes.“Come on, West. Don’t cry, we’ll fix this. There’s no need to lose hope now.” Wendy said.“But the earlier I
“It appears so. I can no longer perform magic. I kinda like it but I’m scared for him.” Minx said.“S-so… are your people, after him? Do they know what our child is?” Gabriel said.“Yes, they know… they have tried to kill him once. That was immediately after his birth.” Minx said as they walked into the house.“So how can we protect him against them? I’m sure they will try again.” Gabriel said, getting worried.“Your parents and I have handled it already, he’s safe in the pack house. That boundary spell in the house and his room is enough.” Minx said.“But what if they find another means to get to him?” Gabriel said.“Babe… it’s a happy day, focus on the positive things.” Minx said.“I just want to make sure that our son is safe. I will not forgive myself if anything happens to him.” Gabriel said.“Jordan is under your parent’s supervision. No harm can come to him.” Minx assured him.“That’s right. I was just overthinking.” Gabriel said.“Yeah… Everything will be fine.” Minx said and
“Why are they so scared of extermination? Wolf blood witches weren’t supposed to be in the first place. This bloodline was formed as a result of a forbidden love affair between a werewolf and a witch.” Gabriel said. He had an expression that Minx wasn’t familiar with.“I know this story already. What exactly are you driving at?” Minx said.“What if the wolf blood witches grew to love their hybrid nature, as opposed to when they were newly made and as such forbade any form of romantic relationships or even familiarity with werewolves because they feel that if they procreate, their line will be undone? Just like it’s happening.” Gabriel said.“So what you are saying is that the rule against werewolves and Wolf blood witches being together is just a precautionary measure to protect their hybrid nature? That doesn’t make any sense, Gabriel. That’s very funny.” Minx said and started laughing.“It’s not funny. This is an interesting theory.” Gabriel said.“Yeah, you win. I’m laughing. Thank
Minx was finally free and she rushed to where Gabriel lay.“Gab, Gab? Wake up, we have to get out of here.” Minx said as she tapped him.He didn’t respond immediately but after a little while, he opened his eyes.“What happened? Where is she?” Gabriel said immediately he saw Minx.“She’s gone, let’s get going, we have to inform everyone.” Minx said.They both left the woods and headed straight home. When they got to the house, everyone could tell from their faces that something went wrong.“What happened? Did you two get into a fight?” Amanda said as she handed Jordan to Gordon to hold.“Let’s get Jordan back into his room.” Minx said and took him from Gordon in the most violent of manners.Gordon was shocked at Minx’s gesture that he had to ask Gabriel what happened.“We met her aunt, Gina in the woods on our way back here. She won’t tell me what they talked about. I was unconscious most of the time.” Gabriel said.“I guess she wants Jordan. Because what else would make her approach
“How may I help you two?” William said as he looked at the elderly woman standing in front of him with a little boy standing next to her.“We want to see Dr. Bennett. He knows we were coming.” Matthew said.William narrowed his gaze at them before leaving to inform Dr. Bennett about his visitors.“I’ll be with them in a minute. Please let them in.” Dr. Bennett said.He was in the bathroom when William came in.William reluctantly invited the two strangers in. Shortly after, Dr. Bennett joined them in the waiting room.“Matthew! How’re you, my boy?” Dr. Bennett said.“I’m fine… Mama Wendy is here.” Matthew said as he hugged Dr. Bennett.“Good morning, mama Wendy.” Dr. Bennett said.“Wendy is fine. Let the little boy add the title.” Wendy said.“Where is the boy? I do not have much time to sit around. I’d like to get back to Boston before nightfall.” Wendy said.“I’ll arrange everything at once.” Dr. Bennett said as he proceeded to Seth’s quarters to wake him and Daisy up.“Isn’t it too
“Ohh my… Who do we have here?” Gina said as she walked toward the direction where she heard her name from. She knew that it was Minx, she could recognize her voice, she was her niece after all.“What have you done to my son!” Minx shouted.“Hold on… In as much as I’d like to take credit for whatever misfortune has befallen your little devil, I’m sad to inform you that I have no part in it.” Gina said.“I don’t believe you. You killed my child! And you’ll pay for it.” Minx said as she ran with all her might toward Gina and pushed her down.She didn’t give Gina time to understand what was happening, she kept hitting her with blows and kicks until Gina finally fought back and pushed her to the wall. “Stop! I didn’t kill your child! Cut this crap!” Gina yelled as she tasted the raw iron taste of her blood. Minx had given her a cut on her lips“I know you did it. Just admit it already! Isn’t that what you wanted? I hate you so much. I curse the day I set my eyes on you. I told you I was
