Jessica walked in looking at Clara suspiciously. Clara turned her attention to the TV as she ate her food.

Jessica joined them at the table and tasted the food Clara had prepared, "Hmm, tasty, you cooked this?"

"Yeah, you like it?" Clara replied with a smile.

"Yeah, it is nice," Jessica praised getting up from her seat and walking towards the bar.

Grace got up and cleared her empty plate and that of Clara's and exited the dining room towards the kitchen. Jessica poured herself a glass of wine.

"So, when do you plan on starting the adult class?" Jessica asked with her back facing Clara.

"I will be checking online for schools around and what the cost would be then I can start," Clara replied.

Jessica turned to face Clara holding a glass of wine in her right hand.

"How do you plan on doing that, borrow my phone or you would be going to the cafe?" Jessica questioned with a curious expression.

"Oh, I got myself a phone at the market today. That is what I plan to use for that purpose,"

    Ragnor carried her in his arms and walked down the street back to the apartment. Meanwhile, Jessica was on the other side of the street trying to find Clara. Ragnor arrived at the apartment with Clara in his arms. The servant opened the door for them. "Do you want to get down or prefer I carry you around as my punishment?" Ragnor asked with a smile once inside the house. Grace was instantly surprised by the caring man before her now recalling his terrifying aura from earlier. She also understands where some of Clara's baby behaviour is coming from. This man pampers her a lot. "This is love," Grace thought still frozen in her spot admiring the two. "Please put me down," Clara said in a dull voice and Ragnor obliged. Clara moved towards the living room, with Ragnor right behind her. Grace went back to the kitchen to give them privacy. "Can we talk?" Ragnor asked in a gentle voice. Clara nodded and led him to her room where they could talk more privately. Once in the room Clar

    "Yes, I will get the tickets and we can leave tonight," Ragnor informed Clara, and she nodded. Ragnor was happy to see her looking better now. Ragnor called the airport and purchased two tickets to Matara. Their flight was scheduled for 11 p.m., leaving them with just forty-five minutes to get ready and be at the airport. Clara quickly took a shower and changed into a straight dress. Ragnor helped her tie her hair in a bun and they both left the house saying goodbye with just thirty minutes to get to the airport. "Where is Jessica?" Clara asked on her way out."She stepped out, ma'am," Grace replied entering the living room as Ragnor and Clara also entered the living room from the top."Don't worry we will call her when we get to Matara," Ragnor said wrapping his arms around Clara's waist and ushering her out. He was glad she appeared to have forgotten everything he said earlier. They arrived at the airport and were the last to check in before they closed the gate. Ragnor bought

    "These people could be vampires," the man said Jessica tensed up and turned off the TV, hearing that. "I told you I hate murder stories," Jessica yelled at Grace, threw the remote to the table and left the dining area leaving Grace confused. Grace shrugged her shoulders and went back to the kitchen. She wished Clara was around. It had been just 48 hours since Clara left, and she already missed her. Grace sighed and continued with her duties.Back in Matara, Clara had just woken up. She will be meeting her teacher today. It felt so exciting. She quickly went downstairs to find Ragnor, Emily and George. "Good morning everyone," Clara greeted cheerfully and Ragnor went to meet her halfway down the stairs and greeted her with a kiss."Good morning my love," Ragnor said after the kiss."Good morning," came George and Emily's voices. Emily was glued to the TV as usual, and George was glancing through a newspaper after their greeting."Breakfast is ready," came the servant's voice."Impe

    "Sure, dear, get some rest," Siku's mother replied smiling and exited the room. In Matara, Clara was doing very well with her learning. "Okay, let me read you all a story," Clara announced with a smile."Oh dear, I feel like a child," Emily complained.George and Ragnor both turned to look at Emily."But how old are you?" Ragnor asked "Brother, in a perfect world you will be my son," Emily said with a grin.Ragnor turned to his father with a questioning look, "Dad, did her head hit the floor when she was born?" George looked at Emily who was still grinning with her chubby face. He turned to look at Ragnor who seemed to have no expression on his face, and at Clara who couldn't stop laughing and sighed. "Ragnor, I am not sure, my eyes were closed throughout her birth session," George replied "I think, I know what the problem is," Ragnor said sounding resolute, "Babe, let's hear your story," he said to Clara with a smile.Emily looked at Ragnor, "Hey, how come you don't look at me w

    Ragnor was a light sleeper, but he completely trusted Clara so was never bothered about what she did or didn't do while he slept.Clara, seeing Ragnor's eyes were closed, took the medicine she kept under her pillow and opened it. Ragnor frowned, getting the strange feeling again. Clara squeezed the bottle too hard causing the nozzle which was not well closed to open pouring the entire content on Ragnor's face. Ragnor opened his eyes immediately and the liquid went into his eyes. "Clara, what was..." but before Ragnor could complete his statement, he realized his vision had become weird. He got out of bed and told Clara to stay in the room and he walked out. Ragnor felt there was something in the liquid Clara poured on him. He knew someone was up to something and had deceived Clara. He could not tell what the content of the bottle was but whatever it was couldn't be good. He was more concerned about Clara and had left the room to protect her, not sure how he would react to whatever w

    "How did Ragnor get it?" Peter thought as he stared at the glowing ring on Clara's finger.Clara moved slightly and Peter covered her with the sheets making sure she was warm. He was hoping she would open her eyes by sunrise. Peter sat on the only chair he had in his room hanging his left leg over the armrest of the chair. He closed his eyes to rest for a while. In the palace Nyota has gone silent, exhausted from crying. She sat on the floor behind the door with no expression. Her face was puffy and her eyes red. Her hand which was wounded from her continual banging on the door was healing.Siku's mother was lying on the bed in her room staring at the roof. In her mind, she wanted to wake up from the nightmare she was having right now. This wasn't the result they were expecting. Maddox, sat on the sofa looking at his daughter lying on the bed motionless. It was half an hour past 4 a.m. and the skies had not quieted down.

    Maddox searched Siku's room and found scissors. He cut his palm with it and taking some of the cloth off, dripped his blood on Siku's wound hoping it would heal but again nothing happened. He tied her hand with a cloth to stop the bleeding.It was almost 7 a.m. in the Immortal City and the sun had still not come up yet. It was still dark outside. In the human Civilization City, the humans were unaware of what had happened in the palace. They wondered what was happening to the weather. The rain shower had stopped but the rumbling thunder was occasionally heard. The soul of Ragnor was still wandering around searching for Clara. He remembered the place he had found Clara when she got lost in the Immortal City. He headed towards that house in search of her. Gradually news of what was going on reached the humans. Alberta, the caretaker of the guest house where Clara had lodged on her first visit to the Immortal City, quickly headed for the palace. Upon arriving, she realizes the palace

    Clara was standing right in front of a messy bed wearing a man's shirt with her long, beautiful legs completely exposed up to her hip.In front of Clara stood a man who happened to be in just a singlet and shorts. Peter frowned and scanned the room feeling the presence of someone. An airy feel went past him towards Clara, and he realized Clara was looking at something or someone."Get out," came a familiar deep male voice.Peter jumped out of fright but could not move his legs. Ragnor flapped his wings backwards blowing Peter, his chair and a couple of things out the door. The door automatically closed after. Ragnor's angry gaze softened once it was just him and Clara."Clara, I miss you," Ragnor said looking at Clara with pleading eyes."You betrayed me," Clara said hurt."I didn't," Ragnor said lowering his gaze."I am not blind; I saw you two kissing," Clara yelled."If you wanted to be with her, you need not lie to me about it. After all, she is your wife," Clara added sounding hu

    Emily, who was standing at the entrance of the bedroom, closed her eyes and began to glow, Clara's eyes widened seeing a glowing little girl at the door. She pulled away from the embrace, looking at Ragnor puzzled."Brother do whatever comes to mind," said Emily."Distract her," Ragnor thought and he changed into his flying form and kissed ClaraRagnor used what Clara liked to distract her. He started glowing and Clara smiled wrapping her arms around him forgetting the glowing little girl at the door as she responded to his kisses. Inside the room, George was forced to protect his eyes and he moved back as the glow in the room became too bright with Emily, Nyota, Ragnor and Clara all glowing together. The glow slowly began to fade and the room returned to its original light. It was almost 5 a.m. and the top floor of the palace glowing, had attracted some people to the area wondering what was happening. Ragnor smiled seeing Clara was now breathing and her body temperature had become w

    "I only have one question. Did she want to come back?" Emily asked walking towards Nyota."Yes, she wanted to come back but Emily it was not easy pulling her out of the place," Nyota replied and Emily smiled.While they were talking, Ragnor was just sitting on the bed, in the same position staring at Clara while holding her hand in his. He couldn't hear any of the conversation going on around him. All he could feel was the emptiness accompanied by the immersed pain of the loss of his beloved. George and Nyota led Emily out of the room and back to her room. They sat her down and tried to talk her out of what she wanted to do."Emily, I know you love and care a lot about Aunty Clara but you are not healing a sickness or something, you are using her body as a medium to connect with her soul to pull her back. Emily, you know you can die doing that," George said worriedly."Emily, I know you want to help, but this is dangerous. You don't have a fighting ability; how will you protect yourse

    "Please tell me she is still alive," said Nyota whose eyes were still moist with tears.Ragnor sat on the bed looking at Clara who looked more like she was sleeping but her body temperature was cold. George walked towards Nyota and hugged her tightly."I wish I could but we are going to try to bring her back," George said and pulled away from Nyota and looked into her tears-stained eyes."You have connected with her soul before. Ragnor will get the poison out and heal her body. I need you to be strong once he is done. You will call her back," George said."She was not dead when I did that. I am not sure if that will work with her ......" Nyota's voice thrilled off. "She is still not dead. She is like, what we say, in a coma but if we don't do anything she will die for real," George said and inhaled deeply. "Nyota, don't look at it that way. Her mind is still alive and her heart beats faintly. You connected with a soul before, that is more important and you can connect again. For Ragno

    "Let me call Ragnor," George said and immediately searched for his phone. Back at Andrews's apartment, Gabrielle was walking down the road carrying her baby at Andrews's command. She could not control her tears and as she walked away from their apartment in the night, she turned to look behind a couple of times at Andrews, who was still standing in front of the apartment watching her back and kept on urging her to go. Killing Clara was like touching the lion by the tail, there was no way Andrews would escape death. He just wanted to ensure no matter what happens to him, Gabrielle and the baby will be safe. Ragnor's roar which was shaking the whole building could still be heard. Hearing Ragnor roar, you don't need a soothsayer to tell you the immense pain he was going through for the loss of his beloved. Inside the building, Ragnor was still kneeling next to Clara's body, uncontrollable tears flowed down his face as he continued to roar into the silent night. His fangs had already

    Ragnor sat on the roof waiting and thinking of how to rescue both mother and child.Andrews was pacing up and down his apartment wondering if Ragnor could save his family without him having to kill Clara. Clara is in the palace and for him to go there would be too suspicious and calling her would be equally suspicious. He knew at this moment it would be difficult to get to Clara without raising any suspicion. Back in the palace, Clara was sitting on the bed in deep thought wondering if Ragnor was okay and if Andrews's family was out of danger. Emily was with Nyota asking so many questions as it was her first time visiting the city. George was resting in his room as he was working on some changes they would like to implement in the city. Ragnor had come to the full realization of his power and could control them very well so George was not bothered about what was happening with Siku and Andrews's family. George was certain everything would be fine. Siku cannot walk free this time. Cla

    "Please come quick, Siku is, she is, please help," Andrews cried and ended the call."I hope this will get them here faster. Clara, I am so sorry for what I am about to do. Please forgive me," Andrews said and quickly called Gabrielle's phone which Siku answered immediately."Ragnor is coming back tonight. Please don't harm my baby. I will do as requested," Andrews said."Now, that is what I want to hear. You see, things are a lot easier if you just listen and obey," Siku said and laughed. "Since you have been a good lad, I will let you see your wife briefly," she said and put on the phone camera. Andrews saw Gabrielle tied up to a chair, her hair dishevelled and a cloth tied around her mouth. The baby was lying on the bare carpet. Seeing the tears flowing down Gabrielle's face and the baby on the floor crying, he felt a sharp pain in his heart."Please, Princess, I beg you, let the baby lie on a bed or something, it's too cold to lie on the bare floor. I beg you. He is just a child,"

    "Gabrielle, where are you? is everything alright?" he questioned "Hello, Andrews," came Siku's voice and the colour drained off Andrews immediately upon recognizing the person. "How did she get into the city?" Andrews thought with eyes widened, concerned about the safety of his wife and child. "Did you miss me?" Siku asked and laughed, knowing from his silence, he was in shock. "Okay, let's not make me do anything nasty which will get my newly purchased carpet stained with blood. Cleaning items are costly in this city," she said nonchalantly "Please, don't harm them, I would do anything you ask of me. I promise," came Andrews's trembling voice. "Now, that is something I like but unfortunately it seems it's too late for you Andrews because there is nothing you can do for me unless you already have a plan that would work," Siku said. "Just tell me what you want and I will get it for you, please don't harm my wife and child," Andrews pleaded. "Ha......ha......ha...... ha," Si

    "A couple of days more and I do away with this facade is quite exhausting," Siku thought and proceeded to her bedroom. The next day, Andrews and Gabrielle arrived in the Immortal City with their newborn. Gabrielle was already exhausted from the trip, so once they entered their home, she decided to take advantage of the baby sleeping to also get some rest. Andrews, however, went to the palace to greet the King and inform him of his return. He was just in time as Ragnor and Clara were about to leave for Matara to go pick up Emily. "Welcome back," said Ragnor after Andrews greeted them. "Thanks, my king," Andrews replied and bowed respectfully. "I suppose you left Gabrielle in San Francisco?" asked Clara. "No, I came with her. She stayed back at home to rest. She is very tired from the trip," Andrews replied. "That is fine. Give her my love and tell her we will come to visit as soon as we return from Matara," Clara said. 'Thanks, Mrs Usiku," replied Andrews. "Wow, this is th

    "You will come with me. We will fly," Ragnor said and Clara was happy. The next day, Ragnor was in a meeting with some council members and Nyota and Clara decided to take some time to admire the city. The city indeed had changed a lot with the new ideas of improvement. While in town they ran into Siku, Nyota frowned immediately upon seeing her but Clara happily greeted her. "Hello princess," Clara said with a smile and Siku smiled back shyly. "Please, just call me Siku," Siku said and lowered her gaze. Nyota frowned but was shocked by what she witnessed. If someone had told her, that Siku had a twin or clone version of herself with a different mind, she would believe it. She thought looking at Siku shocked. "I can't address you like that; you are still royalty," Clara pointed out and Siku sighed. "Clara, can you find it in your heart to forgive me?" Siku asked, looking at Clara. "Don't worry about it. The past is in the past. It's a new day. Let it go and forgive yourself too
