Damian looked at Alex and rubbed his forehead. She looked at Justin who walked into the living room“Alex is right. The entire Cordina is falling out. It needs a ruler and it has none. It just has a figure head” Justin said “Thank you for that unnecessary compliment. I don’t know what I’ll do without you!” Damian said sarcastically “Either ways, he has a valid point” Sally said walking down the stairs “What is going on now?” Damian said“Apparently, some group of guys are getting bored and they’ve formed a rebel. The major reason for this little club of theirs is to go against every rule mom had out in place. They are just bored and causing trouble” Sally said “I should make you my special advisor or something. You are always updated on what is going on” Damian complimented “I am trying not to feel insulted” Justin said “You have to admit that I have a point. Anyways, gather up those boys. If they want trouble, then let’s give it to them. Sally, can you handle that?” Dami
Damian sped for the door and saw Odette standing there. She looked him straight in the eyes and he couldn’t understand why she was here “What do you want?” He asked her“One thing, Annabelle. She doesn’t belong here. Send her back to the central so that Cordina can have the peace it deserves again. I speak on behalf of the people” she said “I don’t remember making you the mouth piece of the people. Anna stays here. She is a royalty. Her family bloodline started from Cordina. I can’t send her away just because Phillip had proven to be a threat” Damian said “You don’t get it, it is not about Phillip anymore and you don’t have a choice Damian. Send Annabelle back to where she belongs or Phillip wouldn’t be the only enemy you would be worrying about” Odette said “Hold on for a second, are you threatening me? If you prove to be a threat Odette, I would make sure you disappear from the surface of the earth. I am not the same person you knew. I have priorities now and Annabelle’s saf
“Do you want to tell me what’s wrong? You’ve been staring at me for almost five minutes. Did I grow horns on my head?” Justin said “I have to go!” Sally said, running off Justin grabbed her by her arm and pulled her towards him, his face, inches from hers. She felt the world stop for a second. She wanted him. She had denied herself the pleasure of having him in her arms just because she was always busy“You have to go? What do you mean by you have to go? You called me here!” Justin said“I know and I’m sorry. I really wanted to talk but something came up and Anna woke up!” she saidShe ran off“What do you mean by Anna woke up?” Justin asked, rubbing after her“I need to find Damian!” she said She opened the door to the study and found Damian and Alex sitting there, talking about heaven knows what“What is going on? You look pale, almost like you’ve seen a ghost” Alex said “Give me a moment, let me catch my breath” she said to himShe had all of them staring at her for a secon
“I don’t know if that is a good thing or a bad one” he said to Damian “That totally depends on you. I really don’t like my fine being wasted and that is exactly what you’re doing” Damian said to him“Mind their manners. What is your condition?” Sally asked, eager to hear it and find a way around it “You let me join your little crusade and we find Phillip together” he said“Hell no! We don’t need you or your help. Heck! How do we even know that we can trust you?” Alex asked him“Because I know that Annabelle doesn’t remember you. I know she is dying and only Damian’s venom can heal her but it can also kill her. I know you are cheating on Arielle with Betty and you met Betty weeks ago! I know Odette is involved in all of this and so is Isabelle. I have information and you don’t. It’s a win-win if you asked me” he said “I still don’t trust you. What is going on with you? How do you know so much about us? Who sent you?” Alex asked, all at the same time“Are you mad because I kno
“And what makes you think that she would talk to you? Do you know what damage she could have done without us knowing about it?” Sally argued “But she didn’t!” Alex said, defending her“How do you know? We have always wondered how Phillip has always been one step ahead of us. She was the one feeding him with information. C’mon, Alex. I know you feel some sort of emotion for her but it is an obvious explanation. Every time Phillip has beaten us at our own game, people had died. My mom, Caleb! Your mom! We don’t know the exact amount of damage that your girlfriend had caused. How can you still want to reason with her?” Damian asked“She is my girlfriend okay and Phillip might be manipulating her for all we know. She has been there for me through thick and thin. She has been there for all of us! I don’t want us to make a mistake that we would regret later on. She has an explanation for all of this! Arielle isn’t someone to switch sides on the people she loves. She has an explanation.
He let out a sigh and continued on his journey in his own mind. Did he really push her away that bad? Why would she want to be with someone that had caused him nothing but immense pain and hurt? There was no way that was his fault. Arielle had been distant way before he met Beth. She was always saying she needed space“Space from what exactly?” Alex yelled at her one time she said this to him again “What do you mean by space from what? I just want space. Can’t I have my personal space? Must I be around you every time?” she asked him back “What personal space are you talking about? I have barely been here because we have been looking for Annabelle and I understand if you’re upset with me for being so distant but Ari, please. Don’t ask for space. It would only pull us apart and I don’t want that” he said, trying to be reasonable but that didn’t workAll she did was leave the room and spend the night with Sally and the next day, she moved out of his room after asking Damian’s mom for
Damian moved from her and she kept screaming in pain. She reached out for him but he moved away. Justin ran into the room and looked at him“Damian, what did you do?” He asked, standing in between the both of them“I swear, I didn’t do anything. I was just talking to her and I touched her and she started screaming” he said “Why is there blood on your hands then and why is she bleeding?” Justin screamed at him He looked down at his hands and saw that Justin was right. He could have sworn that he had just talked with her. Sally ran in after him and moved back. Her eyes went dark and her fangs came out. She went for Damian but he caught her by the neck and threw her across Anna’s bedroom. He stopped “I don’t want to hurt any of you. Can you just listen to me?” he screamed He felt something carry him and when he could gather himself, he found himself in the dungeon in his own house. He looked and saw Alex standing at the other side of the gate“What do you think you’re doing?” he sc
“Grace! I can’t believe you’re here” Damian said as he hugged her “Neither can I. It is so good to see you to, D. How have you been? Well, except from trying to defeat magic without the help of someone that has magic?” She asked“We have a lot to catch up on, Grace. I was hoping that we can talk about things…” “Damian! This is not the time to start to catch up on whatever years you guys have been apart!” Alex interrupted , reminding him of their current dilemma “Right! Yes. We have an entity that has control of Anna’s body and we have no idea where she is” Damian said “What kind of entity?” She asked “One powerful enough to take control of an hybrid” Justin said as he groaned back to reality “Oh, hey there. I didn’t think you would ever reach out except hell was freezing over” Grace said to him“Well, hell is freezing over. Can you help us?” Alex asked“Yes I can but first, I need to know what kind of being has control over her. What has her actions been so far? How has
