The night of that big announcement, Ivanna tossed on her bed with uneasiness. Marriage was the last thing on her mind as it was the only obstacle she was encountering on her way to achieving her big dreams.She needed a plan. But She didn't get the chance to think when an almost silent knock came on her door."It's me, Nicholas," A voice said from outside. She hurried to it and unlocked it. "Are you alright?" He asked immediately as his face came into view with a concern-filled tone.Nobody knows her more than her brother. His concern brought tears to her eyes.She shook her head softly."Don't worry," He said as he pulled her into a hug. "I know how much you aren't happy about this, it's my fault for supporting father instead of you." She tightened her arms around him. "So it's up to me to correct it,"She raised her face and looked at his face. "What do you mean?""There's a ship leaving for the capital, It's father's ship but they answer to me. I can get you inside and transport yo
The girl he was proposing to didn't seem impressed and darted disappointedly at his expression, before storming off. But not before she whacked his devilish face with her purse.The shock on his face made Ivanna rupture into laughter.The laughter happened to have been loud since she caught a glare from the man. His face hardened as his eyes found her.Her bad.She hastily jumped off her seat and attempted to fade away into the crowd. It was nighttime anyway.But the man didn't seem to want her gone yet as he trailed behind her with long steps.Ok, now this is creepy.She picked her pace and began running. She halted when she got to a juncture, the man wasn't after her anymore. Her eyes scanned the crowd, scouring for someone.She could recollect he instructed her to remain where she was, and now she couldn't even recognize where had been earlier.She inhaled deeply before releasing it. It felt good to be at home. Being back in the country after a decade and a half felt great."Ivanna
The Quinns were hosting a party, and the Pierlot were invited. Mr Pierlot wasn't accessible, so he instructed his children to attend in his place."Dad wanted us to, so stop whimpering." He hissed, and Ivanna glared.As they walked to the entrance of the mansion, someone recognized Nicholas and ushered them in."It's been a while, Nicholas," It was Mr Quinn."It sure is, uncle," Nicholas answered back politely. Mr Quinn was an influential man."Ah, this must be Ivanna, what a lovely lady she has become." Mr Quinn commented and Ivanna glowed.Ivanna glanced around the room and noticed how filled up it was. She didn't really know what the party was about, but she knew it had something to do with business."Ummm...Uncle, what's this party about?" Ivanna asked.Mr Quinn smiled and glanced around the room. "It's supposed to be a business party, but I guess I've turned it into a welcome ceremony for my third son.""I thought you had just two sons," Nicholas said."That's what most people th
He looked up from downstairs and wondered if Anne was asleep. He climbed it slowly with hesitation, he didn't want her to feel uncomfortable.The stairs appeared longer than usual. His heart, something didn't believe existed, began to race. He was nervous for no reason.As he reached the edge of the stairs, Anne's room entered his view before his room which after before her room. He strides to her door and knocks on it slightly.On the first knock the door opened. He couldn't believe she was actually waiting for him to come to her room.He slipped into the room, the lit candles were glowing. He glanced at the wall clock and it was a few minutes past nine."I thought you were asleep," Dominus said as he strolled to her, "How's your wound?" He noticed she hauled her arms freely.A beaming smile appeared on her face. "It healed. The pain was severe at first, but after the plant you dipped, the pain began lessening. And now, there's no pain."Dominus wasn't believing this. He moved closer
It felt like goodbyeThe name didn't ring any bells so he opened it to see if it was of any use. As he read through it, his eyes broadened. It was a forbidden book.It says Breakers soul could be tangled together with a soul called Ginnak. By this, the person's body will be reborn when the Ginnak soul penetrates the body. By this, the person becomes a living person.Side effects;...He didn't pay attention to the effects. What effect was more disastrous than death?But there was one problem. It needed the consent of the King of hell.That's gonna be hard._____________He passed the burning guards at the gate and made his way to his father's chambers (Vamurus's Father), he needed to get this done. Anne only had a day left to live.As he got near the chambers two guards blocked his way. But he didn't stop as he strode through after turning them into dust. He wasn't here to fiddle.He walked into the chambers and to the bathroom after hearing the sound of water(much rather, lava). His f
"Who's the keeper now?""I don't know. But he/she will be a descendant of my family. But all my family died when I was growing up.""That means one was saved. Can this keeper help?" Michael asked."I doubt. The work of a keeper is to protect the book of Ginnak against any harm, his job is also to protect the Ginnak, be the Ginnak bad or good.""That sucks," Forsyth commented."And most importantly; A Ginnak can't be killed, killing the body will only make it harder to be killed. We just need to tame her. If we can get her in control of herself, then we're safe." Robert said."And if we don't succeed?""We die." Silence filled the space between them. But was broken by Michael."I think I know just whom to tame her?"They all gave him a strange look. "Who?""Dominus, Good Dominus. The blue signal did something to evil Dominus which we aren't sure about, I saw it.""Sweet lord, not again," Forsyth complained under his breath.Alexandra felt on edge as she stood in front of the Priest wi
Robert rolled his eyes. "I presume you realize the Ginnak's book has been read, she will be suffering different types of sensations now."Forsyth tilted his head to look at him, he was trying to contemplate why he was doing all this. Helping Ginnak make her mutation quicker isn't something one would do without earning tons. Then realization hits him. "You're not related to the Ginnak, are you?" His eyes narrowed as he asked. "You aren't afraid of the signals and you seem ancient. Were you the Ginnak's ex?"Robert's jaw ticked. "Ex?""Yeah, stubborn ex trying to win her back by doing something good. Don't tell me you're one of those people?""What gave you such an idea?" Robert asked with disgust."Your attitude-" His sentence couldn't be completed as the door was nudged open by Mildred who appeared to be anxious."She opened the book." She reported to Robert without throwing Forsyth a glance, but the weird look he gave her didn't miss her notice."Wait," Forsyth said. "You know this g
"I wouldn't-not come, Dracule, you know I'm better than that," Dominus said as he entered the room. The house belongs to his old friend, Dracule.Dracule sighs as he sits down. "Can I stop lying to the… other you? That is tiring and exhausting." He grunted. And Dominus laughed softly as he strolled forward to the chair and sat down."You have to. He's too curious and that would keep him away from danger. I'm not always with him, and I'm afraid I might sleep and meet myself in the grave."Dracule gives him a strange look. "Where is it?" He asked. It's rare to meet the real Dominus, he doesn't come out unless in danger. "Did you get the stone?"Dominus rolled his eyes. "Why are you after the stone anyway? I'm not searching for any stone, Dracule, I'm too lazy to." He yawned and relaxed his back on the chair. "I banged her cherry." He said as a sly grin surfaced on his lips, it fascinated him.Dracule's eyes dilated. "You indulge yourself in pleasure? That could spoil your training and p
