Norae landed back on the ground as well and transformed the bow in her hand back into a spear. She came up from the left-hand side while Fawn was at the right of Sader, Hannah and Garin. The angel was switching her gaze to both of them and she knew that without Sader’s and Garin’s powers, she wouldn’t be able to handle them on her own.There’s nowhere left to run, Hannah. Your demon pals are powerless and you can’t fight us both. Just give up now and let us end this once and for all,” Fawn beckoned her.“Our powers won’t be back for a few more minutes. What are we going to do?” Garin whispered to Hannah.Fawn and Norae moved even closer and Hannah strengthened her defensive stand to make sure they don’t come any further.“I’ve had enough of this, Hannah,” Fawn said and her sword shone brighter, “I want to end this and return home. I’m tired,” “So am I, sister. So am I,” Hannah replied.She looked down at the ground where Kari was lying before but he wasn’t there anymore. He had slipp
866 AD"It seems you've made a mistake, Shade. Hannah can't be pregnant. It's impossible," Garin told the healer."What do you mean it's impossible?" Shade asked.Garin moved closer to her and lowered his voice as he told her about their physical limitations."Hannah is barren and so am I. We can't have a child, together or with other people. You have to have made a mistake," Garin said."There is no mistake, Garin. Whether or not you and Hannah can have children isn't important. The fact is she's pregnant with a child," Shade said and tapped his shoulder, "You're going to be a father, Garin. I'll give you some time alone with your wife."Shade walked out of the hut and left Garin alone with Hannah in the other room. He could barely lift his feet to go over to her because he wasn't sure what he would even say to her. This wasn't something that they ever bothered to plan for because they knew it was never going to happen.Garin finally summoned the courage to walk into the other room.
"Last call for passengers going to Thompson, Connecticut. This is the final call. Please get to the boarding aisle because the flight is soon to take off," The announcer's voice said on the speakers at the airport.Josh and Isabelle were already on the plane and had found their seats. They were sorting out their luggage and placing them in the top compartments. Isabelle was helping Josh load the bags and suddenly, one of them slipped out and almost fell on her head."Whoops! Be careful there," A young woman said just as she caught the big bag with one hand, right before it made contact with Isabelle."Wow," Isabelle said to the young woman, "Thanks for catching that bag. You seem pretty strong," Isabelle remarked because of the woman's subtle strength."I literally sleep in the gym. Hi there, my name's Cleo," She gave her hand to Isabelle."Hi, Cleo. I'm Isabelle and this is my boyfriend, Josh," She introduced."Hi, there. Thanks for saving her head," Josh joked."It's my pleasure. I'
On the drive to Quaddick, Isabelle and Cleo were laughing so hard in the back seats as they spoke and got to know more about each other. Apart from their jobs, they had almost every other thing in common and they really hit it off.Josh listened to them from the front and he had a smile on his face the entire time. He was so happy to see Isabelle calm and relaxed, having a good time with her new friend without worrying about the strange things that had been happening to them. That was the point of this trip after all; to take a break from all the chaos and madness, to forget about their problems, even if it was just for a day and to spend some quality time in each other's company."So, if you don't mind me asking, how old are you?" Isabelle asked her."I'm twenty-six," Cleo said."Wow, I'm twenty-six as well," Isabelle said with a smile."What do you know? Another thing we have in common," Cleo said."You know what would be even crazier?""What?" "If we had the same birthday..." Isab
Josh and Isabelle had settled into the house quite nicely and were already prepared to enjoy their evening together in the heat of the indoor Jacuzzi.They were happy to finally be away from the city and they had not had an episode of the time reversal that was affecting them before they took the trip. It was almost like a change of location had somehow negated the power within them and they felt normal again. Josh was still inside the bedroom while Isabelle was in the heated pool already, waiting for him. He was changing out of his clothes and into a pair of boxers and Isabelle was getting impatient.“Josh, where are you? The water isn’t going to stay warm forever, you know?” She called out.“I’ll be right there,” Josh said loudly from the room.He was ready to go to the pool and just as he was about to leave the room, his phone began to ring and he picked it up from the bed. It was Jennifer calling so he picked up.“Hello, Jennifer. Is everything alright?” Josh asked.“That was act
866 A.DA month after their baby was born, Hannah and Garin felt so much happiness that they had never felt before. They loved their child very much and they treasured her more than they had ever treasured anything else in their lives. As much as they were happy to have Jasmine in their lives, they were also always scared and on edge due to the fear that she might one day be taken away from them by God or Lucifer. It was a fear that they felt every single day since she was born.Hannah grew abnormally attached to the baby. She would spend all of her time with her and would not go anywhere without her. She couldn't even trust anyone else to hold the baby, let alone watch her for hours. The only person she trusted with Jasmine was her father because she knew that he would never let anything or anyone hurt her.Garin was also in love with the baby but the love he felt for her was different from what he had felt for anyone before, even Hannah. She was the first person he had ever loved an
Josh and Isabelle were in bed after enjoying their time in the heated pool. They had enjoyed a fun evening together and despite how much they would have loved to do more, there was only so much their tired bodies could take for one night. They were both worn out from the stress of the day and the warm water from the pool had added to that calming and relaxed feeling that they felt, which was why they went to bed early.Isabelle woke up in the middle of the night because she thought she heard a noise coming from outside the bedroom. It was a faint sound and she wasn't sure what it was but was certain that something had moved around outside. She wanted to wake Josh and tell him about it but she decided not to when she saw how peaceful he looked as he slept. She didn't want to bother him so she decided to go out and check where the noise was coming from by herself.She got out of bed, put on her slippers and went out of the bedroom. She moved through the house and made it to the living r
Cleo was sitting right outside the deck of the house because the other Celestials had asked her to excuse them so they could decide their next course of action. She sat there with her palms on her thighs, deep in thought about everything that she was up to and contemplating that maybe the risks were too great to bear.In the back of her mind, she was afraid that her actions could potentially have some deadly consequences and just as she felt her doubts and fears creeping in, she reassured herself that the rewards were indeed worth the risks."Everything she's saying sounds like a made-up tale. I don't trust this creature," Sader said to Hannah and Garin inside the house."You're a demon, Sader. Trust isn't really something you're naturally good at," Hannah reminded him."That doesn't matter! She's not telling us everything and I don't think it's a good idea to put all our trust in her," Sader said."She says she can't tell us his plans because she doesn't know what they are. I believe
