LOGINHorace’s POV“Your highness, I think we found them,” they barged into my office, the words coming out of him sharply.I jumped to my feet. “Are you serious? You found the intruders?”He nodded. “Yes, your highness. Look at this.”He dropped his iPad on my desk, flicking into a particular page that had a video on it.It was a video of a little boy walking behind an older man. However, the man’s face could not be seen. I could tell that he was hiding it on purpose.“What is this?”“Your highness, I have reasons to believe that this is the man we’ve been looking for. This is the man who plans to go to war with us.”I stared up at him. “ Are you sure about this, Dave?”“Yes, your highness. We decided to go with Luna’s plan about pretending to still have big plans for the princesses' birthday party. This is the location we got, and of course, we were careful not to publicize it and intentionally acted as if we were trying to hide it. They fell for the trick and within two days, they made t
Elena’s POV“How do you know about me? If you are just a human, how do you know so much about my world but claim that you just found out about Ethan?”She swallowed. “When I said, I just found out about him, I didn’t lie. However, I have also mentioned to him in the past about certain stories.”“Stories like what?”“Stories of the supernatural,” she paused, staring into my eyes. “Stories about people from your world. Of course, I didn’t believe anything, but after I found out about Ethan, I began to look into it with a fresh eye, and it all started to make sense.”“Really? So now you believe there are supernatural people out there?”“Of course. I have one standing right in front of me. In fact, I have one of the strongest standing right in front of me l now.”I sighed. “And how does this make you feel? Are you not scared or threatened to have people like this around you?”She smiled again. At this point, I thought it had to be her superpower because every time she did it, I caught mys
Elena’s POVAlthough we had Elaine’s case to deal with, which was definitely more important. And Horace was already working on it. We barely got any rest as we just wanted to get to the bottom of everything.We didn’t get far, but we got somewhere—A place that was already worked on.So I decided to use my time on my son’s case.I remembered the expression he had on his face when his father mentioned starting with damage control.I could tell he was sad and it broke my heart to see him like that. Unfortunately, there wasn’t much I could do to change it. In fact, as I sat in my car overlooking the building in front of me, it was with plans of further pushing them apart.I’ve been following the girl the whole day. From medical school to a few other places. None of which were questionable. She seemed nice. The perfect addition to a family.So at that moment, I also got a hint of his wary heart. Unfortunately, none of these were enough to change the course of my actions.Her biological Be
Horace’s POV“What is going on, Elaine? Why do you look so frantic?"Before she could answer the question, the door pushed open again, and someone else walked in.Dave.He bowed, face looking worried.“What is going on, Dave? You never informed me that you were coming.”He swallowed. “It’s an emergency, your highness. It wasn’t planned.”“Fine, but hold whatever you have to say. I need to speak to my daughter first.”“Oh, Father, we are here for the same thing.”I paused. “What?”“So what is actually going on?” Elena followed.He drew in a deep breath. “We just got word back from our people on the border.”I swallowed, already suspecting that it couldn’t be anything good.“And what did they say? What does it have to do with you and Elaine’s reaction?”He said nothing and just stretched his hand out to me, handing me a letter. “This is the message we got from them.”I took it immediately. “What is it about?”As I asked the question, I didn’t even wait for them to give me an answer. I p
Ethan’s POV“Lila, just hold on. I swear I can’t explain this.”She shook her head slowly, taking a few steps away, eyes still wide with shock. “What the hell— what the hell is going on, Ethan? What is this?” She whispered.I swallowed, turning back to the driver.It was Dave, so I didn’t need a magician to tell me why he was there.My mother had obviously sent him.But that was not even the worst part.By the time I turned back to him, he already had a phone to his ear, saying something. I also did not need a magic chance to know who he was talking to.One of my parents or even both.My heart skipped. I quickly turned back to Little. “Please, don’t go. Just give me a moment to explain. I have a perfect scientific explanation for this.”She shook her head. “I don’t think so. I don’t think there’s anything scientific about this.”“Oh, trust me, there is. There is, okay?”“Are you kidding me? I mean, are you kidding me? You are literally still holding onto it,” she said, staring at my
Ethan’s POVAs soon as I had the chance, I prepared to make my way out of the White House. It was my day off from the hospital, and unlike the past, where I would still go to work as I had nothing interesting to do with my time, I found myself eager to get my days off. This day was one of them, so I wasn’t about to let it go to waste.“Going somewhere?” my mother asked just as I got close to my car. I paused, turning to look at her.We both stared in silence for a moment; no doubt, we had a lot on our minds, but we were each keeping our thoughts to ourselves.My father had not mentioned anything to me, so I had a feeling she hadn’t mentioned the hospital incident.It was also possible that she did, and he just wasn’t ready to address it.They had a way of acting like they didn’t see things, but I had lived with them long enough to know that they did and only decided to address it when they felt like it. I swallowed. “Yes, mother. I have somewhere important to be.”She smirked, steppi
Michael’s pov.I walked into the dark basement, looking around until I caught sight of him sitting calmly. As if he probably wasn’t thinking of ways to kill me right now.But I decided to assure myself. There’s no way he’s going to kill me. I believe he still needs my services.At least I hope.So
Elena’s pov.“Yeah, I’m fine. I’m sorry, I must have fallen asleep for a minute there.” He replied, making our brows lift in curiosity.“Except you weren’t sleeping, boss. Your eyes were fixated on Elena the whole time, and it seemed more like you were…thinking about her.” Monica teased, and I let o
Horace POVThe four of us. Lena, Logan, and Monica sat in the living room, all shocked at the turn of events.“How the hell could this have happened? We worked so hard, I worked so hard to get to them.”“I know, it’s crazy. They keep following them as soon as we find them.” She turned to me, “Who t
Ashanti’s pov.“M-m-Michael, please,” I muttered, hitting his hand repeatedly.But he didn’t stop. Instead, his hands wrapped tighter, and my vision grew darker until everything became an empty nothingness.“Michael, that’s enough. If you kill her, you’re going to go to jail. She’s not worth it.
