All Chapters of Forbidden Paramour: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

The feeling of uncertainty and thrill crept to my skin. It never ceased since this morning, the moment I stepped inside the school campus. My paranoia became real. I became vigilante instantly to my surroundings as I have confirmed with Edward.“Bait? Me? Why?” I asked. He told me early this morning that he was the only one who is bait. Now, he was telling me that I am also baiting. I was repositioned from a lookout to a bait, felt more of a front liner, an unprepared battle front liner, or a cannon fodder perhaps.“You have been made. The Coven knew your association with the Keepers,” Edward said. His statement was already anticipated. It’s only a matter of time, but I was not expecting this fast. If the spies knew then maybe Maria also knew. Maybe it was when Edward punched Alex’s face for my aide. She might have recognized Edward, the person that followed her, watching her every move.“Me? How?” I asked.

I took deep breaths, somewhat forcing my lungs to function. I felt the oxygen supplied fuel to my body as I felt my strength regaining. I shook my head trying to wore off the dizziness. I was still on the ground and struggled to stand. My body was still hurting, I coughed hard as I stood with both feet on the ground.The female witch conjured a bluish flame that engulfed her right hand. It was burning like a  blue torch. She hesitated as he recognized Kane, I saw it in her face. She forced it, she lunged towards Kane and swung her flaming hand wildly towards him but he evaded it efficiently. Three swings and the last attempt was caught by Kane with his bare hand, grasped her slender forearm and she struggled to remove it from his grip. But the witch was strong, she freed herself from him but Kane kicked her stomach right after she pulled her arm.The witched growled in pain, gnashed her insides. She emaciated on the ground kneeling, distracted her from Kane’

Slowly, she lifted the ice stake aiming at my heart. My both hands on her hand that choked my neck, tried to loosen her grasp. I felt my strength was fading as I struggled to introduce air into my body. She teased the tip of her stake to my chest, running in circles. I felt the pointy tip of the ice stake chilled my shirt wherever it touched and the thought of imminent death raced my heartbeat, hammering against my chest.“Should I kill you this time boy?” The woman taunted.With only one push of the stake would instantly kill me as it was aiming right in the middle of my sternum. I was instantly remorseful of what my eagerness had led me. I may have caused this incident. The Coven spies were maybe deployed because they had feared Maria might be compromised because of me. Because maybe of our secret meetings in the memorial.Suddenly, a figure appeared in my peripherals. It was coming fast as if it was flying or jumping. I was not sure, my vision blu

“Make up your mind, Alex. Am I a maggot or a dead fish?” I said casually. Alex had lifted me slightly and pressed against the wall with both hands. He was strong as he looks and his two friends behind him, flexed their knuckles as if trying to intimidate me. I looked up at the sky beyond the tall buildings and I saw despair. The clouds seemed to frown at me, told me something unfathomable.“Where is your friend, Luke? Did he run away, afraid to face me outside campus?” Alex groaned. I veered my vision towards Alex.“You cannot beat his ass, Alex. He is well trained in Krav Maga,” I said.“Krav Maga you say. Trying to make your boyfriend stronger ha. Well, if you do not tell me where he is then we will beat your ass until you sing.”He released me from his grip and took a step back. Bullet time suddenly activated the moment I sensed danger. I had anticipated his move, about five steps in advance. He would del

Suddenly, the grandeur portrait of the headquarter mansion invaded my thoughts. The people that dwell on it, young and old, were destroyed by witches. I could not imagine if such witches exist that dared to attack the people that hunted them for decades. It seemed they had prepared for this day and they were training for a counter offense against the Keepers. The statement of Maria seemed to be impossible on my first comprehension, thus I asked for clarification.“Are you saying that witches are going to attack the headquarters?” I asked perplexedly. The thrill of her next words seemed to be forever until she responded, “Yes. Unfortunately, Luke. They are planning for an all-out war this time. That is why I came here to warn you.”“All-out war? Are we not in a war already?” I asked.“This time, Luke. It will be chaotic.” She replied.“When?”“I do not know for sure. But I have heard
