Chapter: chapter twenty “What is it?” Orion asked.“I don't really know, but this is unlike Rune…” Akira said as she pulled Orion aside.“What do you mean?” “Can you not see he's being all weird and strange when I talk about mirabel?” Orion gave it a deep thought.From his past experience with Rune,he knew for a fact that he was never cool with Mirabel.If there was anything, he hated her and his most common excuse was that she hated the way she made his nose twitch.“You might be right about that?” Orion said.“What's the secret meeting about?” Rune yelled from behind them, “and why am I not a part of it?” “Umm….” Akira said, short of excuses.“It's a human thing, you would not understand?” Orion said his shoulders pulled up Into a shrug.Akira rolled her eyes and mouthed, “human thing? Really?” “Well hurry” Rune answered.“We had better do something about this and we have to do it fast, this is not like him.” Orion continued.“Well, we need to know how she was able to do this to him, there's a high c

Chapter: chapter nineteen “You do know that this is totally crazy right?” Rune said as he tried to keep the coffee jar away from Akira's reach.“In all my years of living, And I mean this by a very long margin, I have never seen someone try to literally drown themselves in coffee.” “Argh!” Akira groaned as she tried to grab the coffee jar from his hands but she couldn't.“You have to stop this madness, you have other things to deal with, things like the prophecy.”“Well…” Akira yelled, “there will be no prophecy if I leave this house or even worse if I am killed, I will not sit by and watch some lady who came back from the dead take away what's mine…”“Did she just?” Rune thought. “Did you just accept that he's yours? Did you just acknowledge the mate bond between the both of you?” He asked.Akira tried all she could to avoid his eyes, “I do not know what you are talking about?” “Oh but you do…” Rune pressed, “you do know what i am talking about and it only took you two weeks.”“Well I have no idea what you'

Chapter: chapter eighteen “What is it about this time around?” Rune asked as he swung the door to Akira's room open.He was a bit bothered about how she sounded on the landline.“Oh my God!” He gasped as she saw the state Akira was in, folded and almost white like she had seen a ghost, “what In the nine realms happened to you?” He asked.“She happened.” Akira replied softly.“Huh? Who?”“Mirabel,she walked in here and threatened me.”“There is no way!” Rune muttered In disbelief.“Does that giant cake slice mean anything to you?” Akira asked as she walked towards the table where Mirabel had dropped the cake.“So she was here.” Rune said.“Of course she was. what? It took you seeing the cake to believe that she came into the room and threatened me?” “Of course not…..” rune said, his voice trailing off.“Then what is it? You seem to have lost your ability to speak” Akira continued.“Listen Akira all I am saying is that we've known Mirabel for a really long time now and…”“Oh…” she scoffed.She should have known

Chapter: chapters seventeen Akira choked at the information And Mirabel was not as helpful as she was when it was Rune.“Oh really?” Rune said, trying his best to hold the false smile on his face longer than five seconds, “I am so happy for you.” He's Said.“Thank you..” Mirabel said, “and….” She stopped, “I guess it's time to check on what's in the oven.” She said as she hurriedly walked to the kitchen.“I am so happy for you? Really Rune?” Kai said as soon as he was certain that she was out of earshot.“Oh forgive me for not adding a hearty congratulations to that.” Rune replied, “I should be the one asking questions here.”“Is she really serious about this?” Orion asked.“Well she seems really confident about it.” Kai answered.“Well,what are you going to tell her about…” Akira looked up at Rune. She knew she was the only hindrance there.“It's fine…” she said, “I will leave now, I'm full already and I still have to ummm, take a bath.” She said as she stood and made to leave.“Leaving already?” Mirabel's voic

Chapter: chapter sixteen “Well I need to know what I am up against first.” Akira said, pulling more books in her direction.A lot of them were written in languages that neither she nor Rune could understand.“These are old languages, very few people can read this, but let's settle for the knee we can understand.” Was Rune response when she asked what language the books were written in.“And Orion?” She asked, “he is old isn't he?” Rune thought hard, “not old enough.”“Somehow, I find that to be very hurtful!” They both gasped in horror as they both turned to see who it was that spoke to them.They both heaved sighs of relief when they saw Orion approach them.“How long have we been there, we did not see you..” Akira asked, her hands still on her chest.“Or hear you.” Rune added “I guess that's one of the perks of being old.” Orion said, chuckling, “what are you both researching about because I can see a whole lot of books,” he sneezed, “and dust.”“Bless you.” Rune said as he grabbed a seat for Orion, “you

Chapter: chapter fifteen “Handmaiden? Seriously? That was what you could come up with?” Akira said without waiting for answers as she threw those questions to Rune.Rune on the other hand was more focused on their privacy.He ensured that they were both alone in the library before he turned to Akira.“I will answer all of your questions but you need to be quiet and trust me?”Akira's brows flustered, “what's going on?’ she asked, her voice shaking, “what's it this time around?”“Whew!” Rune breathed.“And a hand maid?” Akira repeated, returning to the same subject, “what was that about?” “There's no way she could have survived that!” Rune said mindlessly as he collapsed on a chair in the library.Now Akira was more worried about him than she was about the lady outside.“Survived what? And who is she?” She askedThose questions snapped Rune out of whatever state that he was in.“Well then this is officially your first lesson in this pack house, grab a seat!” He ordered.She obeyed without questions while Rune
