*The Camp Of The Undead**Devil's Lane*The pungent smell of blood was what jolted them awake, apart from the smell of blood, there was an overpowering smell of stench and rot, just inhaling this smell made them want to throw up." Aaaaargh!" Kylie shrieked in horror at the pile of rotting bodies piled up beside them, some of them had began to decompose and some were merely a pile of bones, she shrieked again as a group of insects crawled upon her legs.Royal blinked in shock, the last thing he remembered was eating in the car, how did he end up in this cage.He tried to stand on his feet but to his horror, his two feet had been chained to the ground, he looked around and realized he wasn't just the only one, Kylie and his mother had been chained to the ground as well." Mother! Please tell me I'm dreaming!!"A soft clear laughter floated into the room and the trio blinkef in a daze as the figure came into view, dressed in a grey robe with a golden mask on her face was Daera, the le
*The Camp Of The Undead**Devil's Lane*Olivia continued staring at him in shock." I used to be, number Eight"He was the last person she would suspect of being a soul shifter and even Venom was taken aback, Meek was the only one with a confused expression on his face.She had just found out that Venom was an heir of one of the main families in Green city and now she was finding out about Eight " I used to be a soul shifter but now ..Eight's face was etched in despair as he continued" I wasn't just a soul shifter, I was a soul twin and the association hunted I and my twin at all costs, he was ki**ed and I managed to escape"Olivia's eyes misted with tears, she couldn't imagine how it would feel to lose a twin." Our souls are connected and his death made me lose all my powers"Eight finished with a slight shrug, his face turned serious as he turned to face Olivia." I've been planning my revenge for a long time and even now, I'm still not strong enough, if they discover you, you'r
*The Camp Of The Undead**Devil's Lane*The next morning.. In the underground torture chambers, the two figures were huddled together, Kylie's d**d body hadn't been removed, instead it was placed right in the metal cage to remind them of the much scarier fate that awaited them.Cecily whimpered in pain and Royal shuddered, thier bodies had been split open with whips and after they were doused with salt water, they had felt this excruciating pain, they didn't even notice the stench and rot anymore, it was the least of thier problems.The duo shuddered as a figure appeared, a lazy grin was on his face and even though it was very early in the morning, his hands were already stained with blood.Somehow they found him more frightening." Vice commander asked me to pay you a visit and I hope we get along"Eight grinned as he rubbed his palms together " My hands are itching already"" P.please j.just k.k*ll us" Cecily pleaded.Eight shook his head" There's no fun in k*lling, there's somet
Erada smiled." Wow, little Zephyr is indeed smart, Draco is home, isn't he?"Little Zephyr nodded" Second uncle is in his quarters" She gestured at a maid" Please take my big sister to second uncle's quarters"The maid bowed in response, thier little miss was more polite lately and there were happy about the recent developments." Eldest miss, your dress is really beautiful, you look just like a fairy" the maid said with a smile Everyone had heard the second master's announcement at the arena and they were more polite to her, she was after all, the future mistress of the house.Erada nodded briefly as she followed the maid, she hadn't called to let him know she was coming and she didn't even stop to admire the sculptures in the passage way, they were several of them made with pure gold and there were sculptures of lions.Draco dropped the brush as soon as she entered and he was taken aback by the blazing fury in her eyes." Olivia, I missed you"" Save it" Erada said curtly" Di
*The Kingston's Mansion**Green City* Olivia had always been the piece of glue that held the family together, like a bright ray of light, her infectious smiles and laughter lit up the entire mansion, her eyes were shining with mirth as she regaled them with tales of the camp of the undead." Father, I've mastered how to shoot and I really learnt a lot from my master, he helped me build my stamina and my speed increased thanks to him "Vince smiled" You haven't said a sentence without adding 'my master' in every single one, he must be really outstanding "Rivera nodded in agreement.Olivia furrowed her brows" That's because we were mostly together"She didn't tell them that she had found him scary at first and the mere thought of him was enough to make her faint.The entire mansion was in a festive mood and the table was laden with all kinds of sumptuous feasts." At least, now that you're back, I can finally eat meat"Erada sighed, she no longer had to keep up with her pretense an
" When were you going to tell me that you're an heir of one of the four main families in Green city or you were never going to tell me? "Venom sighed" My father was worse than a beast, when I was little he used to molest me several times, when I left, I decided that I no longer have anything to do with the Smith family "" Including Raven?"" They've always treated Raven better "" I guess you're right, it should explain why she's crying that she'll rather k*ll herself instead of getting married to Brad"She said sarcastically.Venom's eyes narrowed into slits and he swore silently." Damn it! I didn't think he would actually be so cruel to her"" She's your family big brother, she thinks you're dead all these years, you should let her know you're still alive and find a way to deal with Brad before he becomes a bigger issue, she seems terrified of him "" Thank you Daera and thank you for treating her even without knowing who she was"" You're welcome big brother but if I find out t
*The Kingston's Mansion**Green city*Olivia was with Erada when the call came through from Draco, to stop Olivia's mind from running wild with imaginations, she accepted the call and activated the speaker." Olivia, please come to my office"There were no other words and even his voice was a bit shaky, despite how hard she was trying to remain calm, a trace of panic was slowly setting in, she turned to face Olivia." You should go, just do me a favor, possess him, once you've managed to grasp his memories, tell me everything he knows about soul shifters"She wanted to be prepared before setting her feet in Havilah city." Alright, I'll do it for you"Olivia said with a bright smile, despite the smile on her face, her heart was in a turmoil, she had kept her feelings locked in all these years because a part of her had always believed she wasn't good enough, she wasn't strong enough to match someone like him and now that she was no longer weak and useless, that old feeling was still re
* The Kingston's Mansion** Green City*" I hate you"The words continued to ring continuously in her head." Mother, do you think she really hates me, I didn't mean to hurt her "Erada sighed as she narrated everything to Rivera." Once she gets everything off her chest, she'll be alright, you shouldn't worry too much about it, I'm only worried because she's not picking my calls " Rivera said gently ." You shouldn't be scared of going after anyone you love, before I got married to your father, there were several obstacles in our paths but thankfully, we braved through them"Erada tried dialing Olivia's number but it wasn't connecting." You should give her time to get everything out of her system"Rivera advised as she pulled Erada into a hug, sniffing over her hair. " It still feels like a dream that I never lost you"Erada's face bloomed into a tiny smile, it was surprising how none of them had minded that she was a mercenary and they all accepted her with open arms.Her guilt le
