TAIKA’S POV“Watch if she is near” I say to zoey while roaming around u easily in the store room. My eyes are fixed on the door waiting patiently or rather impatient for Ivy. I have been waiting for a couple of minutes extra than the stipulated time I told her. Or “has she run away again” I ponder and take a full stop to my pacing. My eyes exacerbate and my facial crumples. But I didn’t think Ivy had the guts to escape after the experience of last time. I shake my head and a comforting and assuring smile crawls in. I move to a table that is beside some loads of bags of food. I brood it’s rice. I place my hand on it and recline softly, allowing my butt press on the edges of it. “She is here” Zoey walks back to me and announces. A smile clambers the ladder of my face. I flick my eyes maniacally and stand straight with my hands tucked and placed on my breast.“…But she is with someone”zoey adds and my countenance swiftly switches to that of confusion and disarray. “What? With who?“ I q
ASHER’S POV“This must have to end!” I stand up from the floor after reviewing all the corpses. Looking at the juveniles, lying dead and butchered like animals.“This must end!!!” I roar again and raise my hand. Veins flagging around my whole body and Damien as well in full setting to attack, I turn to Kyle “ I will go to the mountain hills to confront this berserker. I have to bring an end to this right now” I blare and he jerks his head. “No,I don’t think that is a good idea, Asher. Your life is valuable to all of us and we both know going to meet the heart eater hybrid will be like placing an ant before an elephant. For sure he is going to crush you without remorse. What we need right now is proper planning and no taking abrupt and drastic decision and actions that will be detrimental to us” I take a sto closer to him and gawk at him. “I do not care if this decision is without prior and decent planning and neither do I give a fuck if this decision is whimsical and ludicrous. I am
IVY’S POV“I still can’t believe that Taika just let us go without creating a fuss” I turn to Ma Trisha, looking perplexed and a little perturbed. She looks at me and shades a smile. “I guess she was scared with me around. Maybe she is not that tough as you explained'' she chuckles but then That doesn't sit well with me. I know Taika and I know what she can do. “I don’t think so” I slim my brows and lull in my tracks. “ What do you mean?” She asks and also freezes her feet, gawking at me with bent brows and crumpled forehead. “I don’t know, but then I know Taika and she is not someone who is scared of anyone or anything. She can do whatever pleases her without caring what the next person would think. I have lived with her all my life and so I understand her.” I muse and wag my head. Trisha's countenance flails and her smile fades away. She whines her lips but says nothing. She takes a deep sigh and folds her arms around her chest.“So what do you think her reason was for letting you
ASHER’S POV“No!!!l I growl and rush to Ivy who has the hearts eaters hand in her. He turns and looks at me. There is this smile that rugs on his face.I feel a sharp pain in my heart as I watch him pull his hand out of her. It’s as though one part of me just died. My hand is shaking furiously and my teeth clanging on each other firmly. Within a spill second, there heart eater is jo where to be seen anymore.“I’m sorry” I hear a whisper in my right ear. I turn and see him. Before I can grab, he vanished again like a ghost. The speed with which he runs is mind blowing. I have the urge to chase after him but then I don’t think that is the right decision for now. I turn and look at Ivy as she drops in the arms of Trisha the Salutary. I sprint to her with my heart beating the hardest it has ever done. My legs swiftly carried me faster than I can imagine.With tears in my eyes, I place my hand in her face. I can’t hold back my tears anymore. “Please do go, please don’t stay, Ivy..” I shudd
TAIKA’S POV“I missed you” I voice out gently, gloating at my mom. A mysterious smoke cereals to her face and her cheeks broaden. “ I really missed you mom and I also miss the house, and everyone in it. I came around this night because the night time is the calmest” I flick a lie out of my mouth. This is the junky lie I could think about. I know my mom is just really emotional, so I know she’d fall for this emotia crap.“My Taika… come..” she stretches out her arms wide requesting a hug. I smile and walk to her,allowing her to enclose me with her hands. “I miss you too” she whispers to my ears while my chin is placed on her shoulder. I can’t hold back my frown because she is really wasting my time with this. I should have hastened my steps when I came out of the store and she wouldn't have seen me. “But why didn’t you come to my room to see me?” She quizzes as she breaks from the hug.“I…I …ummm I just thought that coming to you this late at night to bother you will be total childi
IVY’S POV“It’s time for you to be more strong. I now how it feels to go through a lot without having anyone by your side to help console you or guide you. The world is very rigid and wicked at some point, but you should channel all your energy to make yourself better, growing gradually anddon’t care about what others say about you.” TAIKA’S mom place her hand on my shoulders and wipe the tears in my face.She draws closer to me and rubs her hand on the back of my neck. I tilt my head towards her direction, glaring at her with my eyes a little down. “ I have been through a lot myself and I even thought I was meant to suffer all through, but I found love and my mate, TAIKA’S father Is the best thing that has ever happened to me. As much as you are going through a lot, you should still be positive and have faith that your future is going to be better. Do not give up. Do not despair or be despondent. What is yours or meant for you will surely come to you.” She pauses and grins at me.“Li
ASHER’S POV“Heart eater!!” I scream in the lights Jan hills, regarding kk the leaves which are making rustling sounds on each step. My fists are clenched firmly and my eyes are surveying around for the sight of the heart eater. I have been perambulating in the mountain hills, screaming his name but he hasn’t appeared. I just want to end this once and for all and stop the whole killings.“Coke out you son of a hitch and face me asshole! Come the fuck out” I roar and spin abruptly, my eyes colliding with the air in the atmosphere. I inhale and exhale and there is no scent of anyone around. “Come the fuck out and face me if you’ve got the guts!“ I growl at the top of my voice. “Okay. I am here.” I husky but calm voice shuts my anger for a second. I halt from spinning around and just focus my eyes forward where the supposed sound came from but I see no one in front. “I can’t see you.” I take a step forward, freeing and clenching my fist back. I take down a lump of saliva with my eyes
IVY’S POV“Ivy…” Taika dress staring at me with her killer eyes. My hearts sinks to my stomach and my hands begin to tingle. I can’t take my eyes off her even though I want to. The scowl with which she is staring at me is making my want to just disappear. She devotes her gaze away from my face and slowly hurls it to my chest. She takes a step forward and stretches her hand towards my chest. I love backwards. She flicks her eyes up and gawks at me. She scoffs and grins.“I’m happy you are not dead” she bawls. My eyes narrow so does my eye brows. I am very sure I am not hearing soundly. I cough spontaneously and take my let hand to my neck. “You are happy I’m not dead?“ I whiff this out of my breath. My intention is not for it to come out, but I guess I am too overwhelmed e by her statement that I spill the unspillable. “Are you surprised?“ she questions with a scowl and slams the door with her right hand without even looking. Backwards. The thud the locking of the door makes, caus
