They couldn't wait for the elevator to ding. It was going to take a whole lot of time, due to the fact that it was crowded with tenants trying to escape from whatever ruckus was going on on the third floor of the building. The second elevator was at the other end of the hall, a really long distance from Anna's apartment. They took the steps. It wasn't stressful, the men took it and got to the ground floor in time. It was faster than taking the slow elevator and the men gave each other knowing looks as if to tell each other that they'd been wasting time taking the damned elevator. As they walked towards the lobby of the building, Lucian saw a car pull out of the lot through the rotating glass doors and broke into a sprint. It was Walter and he was damned sure that the old dude was returning to his estate. He needed to be stopped at all costs. "Felix, we need to stop Walter, he's returning to the estate. He's going to foil our plans." Lucian communicated using his mind lin

Casey left the balcony in a rush and nearly collided into Nora who was hurrying out of her work area to check what was going on. Augustus still remained where he was, swiftly disconnecting the wires. "Your husband is back," Casey informed, his voice filled with panic. "What do we do?" Even with all the rush, Nora stopped and turned to face Casey. "He is not my husband. Wait here with Gus, I'll be back soon. Do not move away from this room." Casey nodded his head and entered the large office where Augustus disconnected the wires. Nora shut the door and when a click was heard, he knew she'd locked the door from outside. "I need to be quick with this. I still have seven left to disconnect," Augustus muttered and wiped a bead of sweat growing on his forehead. "Why is it taking this long?" Casey asked as he moved closer to where Augustus worked, peering over the man's broad shoulders to see what he was doing. "We have to be careful not to tamper with this wire," H

This wasn't going to be funny. Tonight wasn't going to be. With what Casey just saw, it wasn't going to be. Felix, Kanime? When and how did he become one? Augustus had shifted back to his human form, naked. He crouched before Nora who was finding it hard to breath without care. He'd probably heal her or turn her then have her die. Walter. Casey didn't miss the look of frozen shock on the face of the old bastard when he saw Felix. He'd nearly peed in his pants and when Felix stood on his hind feet, he fled for his life or in search of a rifle powerful enough to subdue the deadly Kanime. It was all in vain because Felix– or Kanime was already before him. Casey would've laughed if this wasn't a life and death situation. Everything happening here was new. Nora, trying her best to keep her eye open, Augustus, the jovial and easy going scientist stark naked before the woman he loves, probably holding both of her hands tightly and promising her he'd make sure she's aliv

Felix returned hours into the morning. He was bloodied and when the door was opened for him, he dropped to the ground and soon, the whole estate was awake. Lucian feared for the life of his friend and he really needed Augustus, but the man had refused to step out of his house ever since the Arrival of his Nora. He had to let another doctor take care of Lucian. He made sure to tell Wendy to inform the ladies that they had to stay indoors throughout the day. It was nearly dawn, but the estate was awake. They couldn't lose two of their best men when the battle was just about to begin. "I hate this place, I hate being here. I don't know why I keep having the feeling that we'd be dead before sundown," Alma's voice stirred Anna out of her sleep. "What's it, Alma?" "I need to go. Even if I can't go back to our apartment, I need to go see my mother. Patch things up with her. At least, she can provide me security. Here, I'm not sure about that." Anna sighed and

Wendy was quick to leave whatever she was doing. She hurried to her 'master' and stood before him and when he gave her a look of confusion, she moved aside for him to pass. Anna felt his presence behind her from where she sat and crazy shivers ran down her spine. His signature cologne wafted into her nose and she clenched her fists to stop herself from closing her eyes and inhaling his wonderful scent. "You missed breakfast and lunch, Anna. Are you good?"Anna nodded, but did not turn to look at his face. She still remembered every feature from his curly hair to his beautiful eyes, those gray orbs that held desire, his well chiseled jaw and high cheekbones. His dimples were her undoing, so she remained focused on the empty China plate before her.Lucian pulled out the chair directly opposite where she sat and took a seat. He was staring at her and she fixed her gaze on the plate, totally unable to look at his face. "Look at me, Anna." That command alone was enough for her to look
