"Stop. Please, stop. I'll tell you. I'll tell you everything you want to know," she said, sobbing out loud. Her heart pounded in her chest as she stared at the menacing figure of Samuel in front of her. Samuel's piercing gaze made her skin crawl, and she had stopped fighting against the restraints that bound her to the iron chair; it was a fruitless mission. Her hands were tied to it very tight.

Working for Mr. Guano for years as his secretary had exposed her to quite a lot of things but being tied to an iron chair, that was not among them. She knew personally that she was no good at enduring pains and that she was not ready to die just yet but how sure was she that James wouldn't slit her throat after she had told him what he wanted to hear? The chances were slim but still, she wasn't ready to die.

"Where were you on the night of Abigail's murder?" Samuel asked, his voice cold and unyielding.

Mary knew who Samuel was. Who doesn't know about him? The almighty terror himself. But what

    James walked to the bed and sat beside Lorraine. He was just as surprised as she was at the moment, if not even more. He tried to think of any possible reason why Ellie would have kept this a secret from the beginning. Was she trying to save Lorraine? From who? Was she trying to avoid the countless questions Lorraine would throw her way? Does his grandmother also know who Lorraine's parents were?At this point, there was nothing much left again to believe. He won't be shocked to know that his grandmother also knew who Lorraine's parents were all this while and also pretended not to know just like Ellie had done."Are you trying to say Ellie knew who your parents were all this while and did not tell you? God!" He exhaled. He could not imagine what Lorraine was going through now. In his thoughts, he imagined that she was finally happy to find out who her parents were even if they were not alive. In another, he imagined how betrayed she would have felt when she found out that Ellie, who

    Author's Note: thank y'all for reading this story this far. I love You.PS: the term "ardent coker" in this chapter means a drug addict.****"James!" David's voice called out loud, interrupting the sweet, romantic moment between James and Lorraine. "We've got a very big problem."James rushed out of the room to meet David. The urgency in David's voice was not something he would think of delaying. David does not go about yelling people's names for fun. When he got to the living room he saw David sweating and parading around the room, unsettled. Lorraine had followed James to the living room although she kept her distance because she would not want to interfere in whatever it was the two brothers were going to discuss."What's wrong, Dave?" James asked. He had instantly gotten worried the moment he saw the way in which his brother was roaming restlessly in the room.David turned to James, his eyes had turned red from worry. Whatever it was that was the matter, James knew it was not

    Sitting on one of the couches in the room, Kelvin looked at all the portraits hung on the wall. Directly opposite to where he was sitting was the wedding photograph of his sister and the mayor, smiling. There was almost nothing in this world that made him happier than seeing that his sister was happy. On their wedding day, many things had happened that if not for him would have hindered the success of the marriage. First was the damaged cake. How did it even happen? The caterer had delivered the cake at the reception venue and while the waiters were trying to carry the cake to its position, one of them had slumped and that had sent the cake flying to the other side. Kelvin had to instantly rush to the only mall available and get a cake as big as the damaged one to replace it, for almost twice the price of the caterer's charge. A dirty world we live in. Exploitation at the slightest chance. "Who's there," the mayor's wife asked when she heard sounds coming from the down floor. She loo

    Lorraine let out a groan as she bent down, and lowered her hand to her feet to pull out the thong that had prickled her feet. Ellie was taking her back to the group of witches who they had met a few days ago. Although their last meeting hadn't turned out as Ellie had expected. However, this time around, it was the witches who sought their audience. Lorraine pondered on what would have made them change their mind.There was something that had been troubling Lorraine's mind since when she knew Ellie had an idea who her mother was. Although she had kept it away from James. It was how attached Ellie was to the discussion of Lorraine's mother the other day and the burning rage she had seen in Ellie's eyes that day. It cannot just be a mere random rage, there was something else around the story. Lorraine settled her mind that there was something else she didn't know. Perhaps, this was just one of her conspiracy theories, she thought against it.Hopefully, she was going find out more abou

    Without any question, resistance, or hesitation Lorraine followed her, wiping the sweat forming on her face with the back of her hand.In no time, they walked through various hallways, and they suddenly appear before a heavy oak door. The door swung open, revealing a royal chamber. Ellie turned to her and smiled at her weakly. She took in a heavy breath and exhaled. Before they entered the hall, Ellie gave her time to recuperate and calm down.When they finally trotted into the chamber, a big chandelier hung down in the middle of the chamber, casting a warm glow upon the polished flower-designed marble floor.In all sincerity, it was quite the opposite of what she had expected a "sanctuary for witches" would look like. She had expected a room with a giant throne up high and the queen sitting there, looking down upon the council and the subjects exactly as it was shown in Game Of Thrones.However, right before them now, was just an average-sized room with a big table perfected in the ce

    A surge of fear coursed through Lorraine as she listened closely to hear what Ellie would say afterward. Ellie motioned for her to walk down to a place where the whole council would see her.As if she was just noticing her face for the first time, Queen Elara pressed back into her chair."Here with me, my queen is Lorraine, the daughter of one of our kind, and destiny has chosen her to fulfill the prophecy.""Be clear with your words, Ellie." One of the council members remarked."Lorraine here is the daughter of Annabella," she paused, "My sister, who was also your sister, my queen."Lorraine could not contain her shock, she raised her hands and closed her mouth with them in absolute shock... Not only was she hearing the name of her mother for the first time, she just heard that Ellie was her aunt. That meant… oh! No! The council members exchanged somber glances. They heard the news of Lorraine as the witch who would fulfill the annihilation prophecy and had called her to discuss how

    Lorraine raised her leg to take a step but when she heard what Herla had said, she paused, leaving the the leg hanging in the air, and her body froze."My mother's room?" Lorraine exclaimed, surprised."Yes, this is Annabella's room. She loved it.""You know my mother?" Lorraine asked finally getting back control of herself. She wondered why she froze every single time she hears her mother's name.Herla floated around, making some odd screeching sounds, "Yes. Your mother was my friend. It was sad to hear of her demise."Suddenly a gown came floating down from up, Lorraine raised her hands up and the gown made its way into her. She combed her hair and sat before the mirror to look at herself.Her mind flashed back to James and she smiled at the thoughts of him. She wondered what he might be doing at the moment."You're in love? I can see it in your eyes. With a human?"Lorraine did not respond. There were limits to what she was going to allow. And any interference in her personal life w

    Ellie's POVExactly as I had expected, the whole council members were seated when Lorraine and I entered the chamber. Their eyes darted toward us instantly. I hate them all, all of them.As a matter of fact, their presence doesn't matter to me. I was here because the Queen had demanded my presence not because I wanted to be here. I have no remorse for not telling Lorraine who her parents were from the initials, I know she thinks I'm the bad person here. Lol!It was going to be hard telling her it was all for her good, for her safety and it was all her mother's plan to begin with. She'd never believed she wasn't alone all these while, that the person she thought had adopted her didn't actually adopt her, she was her mother's nanny who had promised to look after her. How would she take it that her `grandma'' was also one of her own kind and that I have always been in touch with her? The family never leaves no matter what, we stick together like a pack of lycanthropes so I never left,

    Ellie's eyes almost bulged out of their sockets at the sight of Lorraine's sudden change. She could sense the power running through her niece. The aura Lorraine exuded was more than just an urge, it was pure anger.Ellie crawled backwards, too surprised to act or do anything. She knew what she was supposed to do but she couldn't, she couldn't bring herself to hurt Lorraine. She was to protect her and not hurt her."Lorraine," Ellie called. Seeing her niece like this had not only surprised her, it broke her too. It was her fault that Lorraine had to go through this. If only she had done what she had to do at the right time then the urge would not have gotten so strong. "Lorraine, fight it. You can do it. Remember your destiny, think about your mother."Lorraine could still hear Ellie's voice in her head but it was getting dimmer with every passing second. Suddenly, Lorraine screamed, her voice echoed with excruciating pain. Someone was doing it. The same thing Ellie could bring hersel

    After almost an hour of working on the passport David had given him, Kyle had found out that Mary, as I suspected, had been in and out of Lightwood several times over the last few weeks. According to him, she was in the city at this very moment."When last was she in Lightwood?" David raised a question and Kyle gave him a fiendish glare. He had just said she was still in Lightwood so what does it matter when she entered the town."What is she doing in Lightwood?" David asked another question, with surprise spreading all over his face. If anything, he has had one of the roughest stories so far amongst all of us."We'll have to find out. That's why we need to find her before she leaves the city," I answered, calculating the possibilities of finding her. It was not going to be easy, where would we begin to look? I asked myself. Just as it was impossible to look for a needle in a sea, it was same when the case is turned to her David pursed his lips tightly and smirked. " I don't think sh

    Lorraine's POV"Hurry, we need to go before he finds you," Ellie said and began to hasten her steps. She was faster than I expected her to be. Perhaps it was because she was frequent with the road."Before he finds me?" I gaped, unable to hide my surprise. "Is he going to find me?" I halted and my eyes blazed with fear.This was the point where I was supposed to be confused and scared at the same time. And Yes, I was confused and scared.Turning her head backwards, Ellie saw that I wasn't following her anymore. "You need to hurry up, Lorraine, I'm sure he's coming for you right now," she uttered and stopped. I thought I had seen it all and there was possibly nothing more that would shock me again but hearing that he would be able to find me was something I had not expected.My head began to heat up with questions. Complying with her, I continued walking, and even hastened my steps and began to run. "Why is he able to talk to me despite our distance?" I asked but she didn't reply. W

    Lorraine's POVJames had blood stains on him. I instantly knew whose blood it was, it was Kayla's.So all this while she had been the mastermind behind everything that was happening. I regretted not reading her mind when I had the chance.Unlike I expected, there was no sign of remorse in James's voice as he spoke. It was as if he had just disassembled a nuclear bomb that would have killed the whole world.After James has rushed out in between our discussion, I wanted to follow him but my mind suggested I gave him some space. It would appear like I was pegging him too much if I don't let him do some things alone.So I forced myself not to follow him and I crawled back onto the bed and waited anxiously for him to return and tell me what it was all about.I was waiting when I slept off."No!" I yelled as I jerked from the nightmare I was having. I was gasping for breath. I looked around the room, the walls were familiar. I was sweating like a rat dropped into a bucket of water.It was o

    "James, what happened?" Lorraine's voice echoed as she struggled to get out of bed and go after James who had suddenly run out while they were still discussing. But before she could get up, he was already out of the room.James went directly to his brother's room and knocked on the door, he would have barged in if he didn't know that his brother had a guest."David, I need to speak with you," James said as he knocked again when his first wasn't answered. The thud was loud. He was not supposed to interrupt them but he had no choice. What he had to say was way more important than anything they've got going on inside the room.He knocked several times again.The door opened and David stood inside, spurred by the unnecessary banging his door had to receive when the first knock alone was enough. When he saw that it was David, he did away with the anger. Looking straight into his brother's eyes, he was shocked and curious at the urgency James had used in calling him. He for sure, thought t

    "I'm sorry I came late," James said, still wrapping his right hand on the knife he had stabbed into Kayla. Late? Really? Kyle gasped.Who cared if he came late or not? What mattered to Kyle was that he came and he saved them. Kyle was still amazed that he was able to make it to the building so fast. It wasn't even up to twenty minutes that he had texted him about the whole situation immediately he found out that they had walked into a trap.James pulled out the knife and Kayla spilt more blood from her mouth and fell to the ground, covering the place he had dug the knife into her with her hands to stop the gushing of blood but it was of no use, the blood kept pouring out."Ja. Ja…James," she stammered, weakly and turned to face him. She wanted to say something but there was not much strength in her to put the words together. The little she had was going on trying to stop the blood.How did he find them?She never thought he was coming here today."Thanks, man. You saved my ass," Kyl

    "Someone's knocking on the door," Lorraine said, getting out of bed and heading out of the room. She had gotten James to stay at home and not go with the rest of the team. She had a bad feeling about it. There was something completely off about everything to her.She halted at the door and looked back and saw that he was fast asleep. His heart went up and down slowly. She wasn't sure what would have happened if he had gone with them but she knew something bad would have happened.As for David and the rest of the people, she hadn't seen much about them. She just wished they'd be safe. "Why didn't I warn them?" She berated herself, realising that she could have just told them what she felt even if they would have still gone ahead with what they wanted to do.The doorbell rang again. "Who's there?" She asked, her voice calm and loud enough for whoever it was to hear. It wasn't David because he would never hit the bell before coming in, he always had his key with him.Who would it be? S

    James's POVI could not look straight into her eyes. I just hope she finds it in her heart to forgive me.I turned and started to walk back to my room. I had nothing else to say. As I walk away, I heard Kyle offer to track the location and James chipped in with the go-ahead.Exactly as I expected, whoever was behind this shouldn't go scot-free."Who do you think did this?" I asked Lorraine when she entered the room right after me. Making sure she had securely locked the room, I leaned my back on the door."I don't know who could have done this but whoever it is, I agree with Kyle, the person is closer to her than we can think of," she answered dryly and walked to me. It was her turn again to console me."I can't think of anyone who could do this to her. And, sadly, we all fell for the card. We all thought she could betray us and it hurts me," I swallowed. The words were heavy on me but I needed to say them out.She walked to me and curled her arms around my neck and I wrapped in my ha

    "What do you want me to do?" Kyle asked as he was finally able to clear the sleep off his eyes."I want you to track this number, get the location and everything on it that you can lay your hands on," David said, stretching the phone to him and scowling back at Kayla when he caught her doing the same thing to him.Kyle glanced at him for a moment. He didn't like the way David spoke to him. It sounded more like David was giving an order rather than a request."Okay. Whose phone is it?" Kyle asked as he walked to David and accepted the phone. It was an unwritten law for every single tech personnel to never hack into a phone except he or she has been given full details about it."Why do you care?" David resisted giving an answer and it only made his questionnaire more curious. He was already getting pissed at the questions Kyle was throwing at him. It didn't matter whose phone it was, what mattered was that he could do it."Because it's my work and I'm the one who's going to do it. I can
