Chapter 24
Pocco chuckled awkwardly as he put back his gazes at Veronica.
"That's a cool idea but... you know... I actually like a girl. Don't get me wrong, Evangeline is kind and most of all pretty, but I like another girl," he responded while Evangeline was still feeling sheepish.
"Oh, is that so. I'm very sorry, I just hope we could have a double date. Anyway, we have to go," she said.
"Should, I tag along?" Blake asked and Veronica grinned.
"It's okay, babe. I and Evangeline will use my car. And I know you're busy, you should head to the Museum, I don't want to disturb your time. We'll be fine."
"Are you sure?" Blake said.
"Yes, babe. Don't worry, we'll see you after work," she said.
"Alright, yes, but can we talk in private real quick?" he asked a favour and Veronica smiled at him.
"Sure, let us excuse first," she said to Pocco and Evangeline. Pocc
Chapter 25"Relax! Relax! I'm just kidding, why are you that mad? Guilty?" he smirked.Blake bit his lower lip and tried to cool down his head as he stared at Pocco."Of course, not..." he groaned."Perfect, you say that okay? No turning back, I'm going to court Evangeline," he said as he tried to provoke Blake to spit out his annoyance."I thought you like Sheira?" he sharpened his eyes.Pocco shrugged his shoulders and sighed, "Well, yeah, but she likes you, and I know you know that clearly. She always seduces you, don't say you don't realize that?!"Blake looked up and thought about Sheira. He knew that Pocco was just stating the truth. Since the day he met Pocco and Sheira who were best friends and applied in the museum, he could feel how sticky does Sheira stared at him and how she always try to be alluring and seductive to impress him. He nodded and agreed to Pocco he said sorry about
Chapter 26"Pocco!" Sheira yelled as Pocco and Blake came to the museum together. She hugged him immediately and Pocco was tickling inside, he hugged her back and didn't let go of her for a long time. He was celebrating to feel her warm touch. Blake widened his eyes at Pocco, for he knew Pocco was taking advantage of the hug.Pocco smirked and let his tongue out and Blake couldn't hold his laugh. He chuckled and rolled his eyes as he thought how crazy his friend was."Gosh! How dare you for not answering my calls and messages!" Sheira exclaimed at Pocco.Pocco smiled a bit and winked at her, "Miss me, babe?"Sheira made a face and stepped back as she waved her hands a bit, "Ew! Babe? Stop that! My only babe here is..." she giggled and run near Blake and fastened her hands around Blake's masculine arm... "Him! So don't you dare call me that, okay. Gosh, babe? That's so much crazy, Pocco," she continued as she fan
CHAPTER 27While Pocco and Blake were heading downstairs, Pocco immediately noticed the girls at the edge of the building, near the exit. Observing Sheira's face he knew already that she was being mean with Veronica and Evangeline, he couldn't keep his chuckles by the thought of how Sheira felt insecure to see her rival, face to face."What's so funny?" Blake wondered as he glanced at him.Pocco shyly smile and said nothing, he then hurriedly walked downstairs and waved to the girls, "Hi, girls!" he yelled.The girls turned their eyes at him at the same time and smiled except Sheira who was rolling her eyes in annoyance but when she saw Blake her exasperated face shifted into a wide smile."Blake!" she said and encircled her arms around Blake.All of them were surprised, especially Veronica who was deeply feeling jealous and a bit mad by what she was doing, she could sense that she did
Chapter 28"Abu," called Zanea the moment the portal opened. Abu stared at him with an alarmed look on his face."Zanea? What are you doing here? You know angels were not allowed to wander here anytime they want, this place is for grim reapers. Once they found out we're both has to face a consequence and they might think that I am condoning you... Though I understand your worries but we have laws we should listen to," he said, followed by a deep sigh as he walked past him and later on the three souls followed after him.Zanea understood his words but he couldn't just help it."I'm sorry," he apologized, "But did you check on her?" Zanea asked making Abu to stared at him with widened eyes, gesturing him to be quiet.He didn't answer Zanea, he nodded to some of the grim reapers who came forward and cued them to take good care of the souls."Let's talk anywhere, not here," he said and hurriedly walke
Chapter 29"But can't we just let this slip? What if Evangeline and that vampire won't do anything to humans? We all know Evangeline and I'm sorry but I wanted to trust her as well, although I didn't want at first, but thinking about what happened, we all knew that the vampire only sucked human blood just once and it is not because he purposely did it for his own sake," Abu was trying to defend Evangeline.Kram was fretted by Abu's statement, he didn't want to let Abu think what he think was right. He wanted him to look at the bigger picture that could possibly happen. But there was more than that."You don't understand, Abu. It was fate!" Stephan stated."Fate?! What do you mean?" Zanea interrupted.Stephan looked at Kram and Kram nodded his head to him, allowing him to send the message."There is a prophecy," Stephan paused for a while and Abu could see the fear i
Chapter 30"Pocco? What the heck are you two doing?" he asked and Pocco immediately stood up and face his direction and Evangeline as well. He felt betrayed by his best friend. He wanted to confront him about why he kissed her but he couldn't do it, the fact that him and Evangeline were not in a relationship.Blake clenched his fists and Pocco caught a glimpse of it immediately, he was confused why Blake came off furious so suddenly."Are you alright?" he asked and Blake groaned."Nevermind me! If you want to go against my back, both of you should take a room and not here in my house where I can see you!" he said and he couldn't help but walk away.But he was taken aback when Pocco said, "What are you talking about? Why are you mad for nothing?"Blake felt an additional emotion, a twinge in his heart. He couldn't believe that Pocco was being innocent about what he must feel when he caugh
Chapter 31Pocco kept staring at Blake as they were discussing about the event that they would perform for next week. There were some newly found fossils that they would generate in the museum. They couldn't believe how did Blake found the fossils though he explained that he has the best professional palaeontologists, but the fact was, he knew where could they possibly find one, knowing that he lived more than a thousand years. Even if the lands were changed and it was already filled with buildings and grown trees and plants and others, he could still remember where they at."Blake, can we talk?" Pocco asked the moment that the meeting was wrapped up. Blake ignored him and smiled at one of the guests and talked to them until they reached the exit. He was walking the man in suit outside and assured him that he would be happy to see the fossils by next week.Pocco was restless to see how Blake was trying to ignore him the whole time and no matt
Chapter 32"Wait! Is everything okay?" Pocco yelled but Blake run to the parking area as fast as he could without looking back."Where is he going?" Sheira asked and Pocco shrugged his shoulders, "I don't know, but it seemed emergency," responded to her."Alright, I even wear this outfit for him but it's useless after all," she frowned and Pocco glanced at her outfit. She was wearing a hot red fitted dress and as usual, it was too revealing and too short.Pocco cleared his throat as he looked down and up to her body. He suddenly glanced at Sheira when she poked him on the head real hard."Ouch, that's hurt, you know!" he exclaimed as he was rubbing his head where she poked him.Sheira rolled her eyes and winked, "I'm hot, isn't it? Too bad Blake is not here! If he is in a hurry because of that girlfriend of his, gosh! I'm more better than tha
Chapter 67 5 years later... "Blake," Evangeline shouted as she was chasing his 4 years old son. "Mommy, come and get me!" the child exclaimed. She run after him and the moment he got him, he tickled him on his tummy. Blake Jr. Laughed out loud. "Enough! Mommy! Enough!" he screamed, laughing. Evangeline kept on tickling him but she stopped when she heard the bell ring. She immediately help her son stand up and they went to the door. When she opened the door, there was a man who was in an army cut hair, tall and standing in front of her, smiling. "Abu," she whispered, it was the first time that she saw him in short hair. "Evangeline," he said and hugged her. "I missed you," she said. "Is this your son, Blake?" he asked and she nodded her head.
Chapter 66 Abu was alarmed when he heard Evangeline's voice. She was crying out loud and he hurriedly went upstairs. "Evangeline what happened.. are you..." he froze when he saw Zanea turning into a human on the floor and Evangeline was on the bed, crying out loud as Blake was slowly turning into ashes. "Blake, Zanea?" he whispered and couldn't believe what Zanea did. "Abu, he's gonna die!" Evangeline cried and he fell on his knees. But he managed to get up despite the pain he was inside him. "Abu," Blake smiled as his hands were slowly turning into ashes. "Please, Blake, don't die!" Abu said although he knew it was impossible. "Abu, take good care of Evangeline," he grinned and he teared up.
Chapter 65Abu's world was like rolling upside down, when Evangeline suddenly came to his room and told him about her baby being a human being."What?! Is that true?" he asked and she nodded, crying in pure happiness.He was glad after she said how she found out but he couldn't still believe that the prophecy was wrong. On the other hand, Blake was completely disturbed by how Evangeline suddenly reacted. He asked what was going on and Abu took all the courage to tell him everything, his duty, the prophecy, etc.Blake froze to find out that Abu was supposed to be his killer."Is that true, Evangeline?" he asked and Evangeline frowned, she didn't say a word but he knew that her silence means yes."I'm sorry, Blake," Abu said. He apologize and told him that it was hard for him as well to kill him."But it's your duty, I didn't want anyone else like Evangeli
Chapter 64Evangeline was cleaning the blood that was on the floor when she found out that Blake was coming home. It was late but she didn't want him to think about what was going on so she scrubbed everything.After that she hurried and went to take a shower, she looked at the mirror while taking a bath and she was worried about her eyes, it was obvious that she cried."Evangeline?" Blake asked on the door when he came.Evangeline rubbed her eyes and finished showering as fast as she could.She went out of the bathroom and Blake was waiting for her in their room."Your eyes," Blake hurriedly went towards her."What happened?" he asked and Evangeline couldn't come up with something she could use as an alibi."Evangeline, did Abu do something to you again?" he asked, worried as he stared at her swelling eyes.She was worried ab
Chapter 63Angel's EmpireKram was seating alone in his home, staring at nothingness and thinking deeply. He was worried about Abu, he didn't know what happened to him. It's been days since he went to the human world but the vampire was still alive and he didn't know what went wrong. He has a strong feeling that something happened, he has faith in him that he would not abandon his duty like his daughter, Evangeline did."Don't worry, Kram, everything will be alright," Xhagreb came in and he turned to face him."Old Xhagreb," he whispered and Xhagren smiled at him as he sauntered towards him."Worried?" he asked and Kram frowned. "Yes, I wonder what happened to Abu. If something happened between him and my daughter. I know it was a hard duty for him but I wished he didn't think of backing out. The time is going too fast and what if the prophecy will commence soon?" he sighed.
Chapter 62"Evangeline, let me explain," he said, frowning and he was frightened of what might happen to Evangeline again, what if she would pass out again."No, tell me, did you come here to kill Blake? Is that your goal?" she screamed at the top of her lungs and Abu clenched his fists and slowly nodded his head.Evangeline fell on her knees and couldn't breathe, so Abu ran and help her for support but she pushed him away."You lied to me! Abu, you lied to me!" she exclaimed out loud, her voice was still shaking and she burst out tears, trying to calm down herself but she couldn't. She was panting and Abu was nervous and worried about her."Evangeline, please calm down, your baby," he whispered and Evangeline remembered her baby and held her tummy."Why did you lie to me?!" she cried and Abu held her hand."Let's talk about it inside," he
Chapter 61Sheira went near Pocco to apologize but Pocco was ignoring her and just did his job, focusing on it and pretending like Sheira wasn't there."Pocco," Sheira frowned.He just stared at her and he couldn't help it anymore and sighed, "What?" he said in a soft voice.Sheira blinked and apologized to him, "I'm sorry for slapping you, I didn't mean to do that," she whispered."Sheira, it's cool, I forgot about it as well, okay?" he said and turned his back at her."Is this is how you want us to end? Do you really want to end our friendship before you go to that place? You'll be gone for months, and I'm sure you won't gonna reply to me if I'll text you like you're doing now. Pocco how can you be this hard!" she said.The first lines she said were already fine, she got him there not until the last words. He tried to calm down and turned aroun
, Chapter 60"Good morning, my love," Blake said as Evangeline opened her eyes. Blake was laying next to her and smiling at her ear to ear."Blake," she hissed and he blinked his eyes."What time is it already?" she asked."It's 6:30 in the morning, I and Abu cooked for you," he said as he stood up and stretched his hands, offering her to help her stand up. Evangeline giggled and held his hands and got up."What do we have for breakfast?" she asked."Well, rice, sushi, miso soup, garlic butter Brazilian Steak, buttered chicken, some veggies, and lemonade for drinks," he proudly said as he winked at her."That's too much for breakfast," she said and he shrugged his shoulders."Well, I want you to eat more for our baby," he said and stared at her tummy."Aww, you hear that baby, your dad wants me to get fat," she joked and giggled.B
Chapter 59Evangeline woke up inside Blake's office. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Blake holding her hands and smiling at him."Blake?" she whispered."I'm glad you're awake now, you made me nervous. What are you feeling right now?" he asked and she tried to remember what happened, and when she recollected everything, she stared at Blake."I'm alright, I just felt dizzy, anyway, I'm glad you're here about what happened between me and Abu last night, please, it's just...""Shhh..." Blake hissed to cut her off as he placed his index finger on her lips and smiled."It's alright. I didn't want to talk about it anymore, let's forget about it," he smiled and Evangeline couldn't understand why Blake seemed to look happy and he was not mad at her anymore.She frowned, "Are you sure? Is that mean you forgiven Abu?" she asked.&nbs
