“About what?” Elizabeth asked, even more anxiously than before.

“Cough…. Cough….” Adam cleared his throat and continued with a sheepish smile “Remember what I previously told you when we got the news of Darcy meeting with an accident?”

“Yes….” Elizabeth nodded and mumbled “Things might not be what we think it is and not to be sad???”

“Um” Adam twisted his lips as he muttered “what I was telling was…”

“Mom, what dad wanted to tell you was second brother didn’t really have an accident and he d

  • Never to look back   Opportunity knocks but only once… the choice, that is also destiny

    In the evening, the Burkes came over as usual, the only difference from usual was this time, they were all in attendance, from the oldest Matthias to the youngest, Liam.This time round, the explanations went smoothly, perhaps practice makes perfect… or having your family backing you … makes your spine straighter even if you are speaking about the impossible… who knows!The reaction of the Burkes was no different from that of the Walters… with the exception of Matthias.“First uncle, you don’t seem surprised.” Emile giggled as her gaze skirted over her cousins dumb founded expression before settling on Matthias who seemed to have taken the news in a stride.“The world is vast and wide…” Matthias shrugged, “And who says that the old must be extinct before a new world can emerge?”“True…” Everett nodded as he sank into contemplation. He wasn’t cataloguing but reviewing everything he had ever read or known about his family history. His eyes narrowed as he remembered the information he had

  • Never to look back   No secrets between family...

    He went on to explain everything about their ancestry… the legend of the cultivator world, their ancestor and the prophecy.“The lightning that day…. The sky….” Thomas asked, his eyes widening in enlightenment.Chris nodded.“No wonder you guys looked like you had finished a battle with the heavens.” Eric too nodded with a rare solemn expression.No one spoke after this, not because they had nothing to ask, but because they didn't know what to ask.Unlike other families, their concerns weren't about power or talent. Nor were they concerned with why they had missed out.Their concern was simple:How do we protect them?“In the cultivation world, there is a ceremony for newborns on their hundredth day. It is mainly to check their foundation and if they have the innate ability to cultivate.”“I was thinking of having their christening afterwards so that I can name them according to that…” He paused, “For cultivators, names mean much more than just a name… it is a reminder, a restraint and

  • Never to look back   I knew that basement room wasn't normal...

    Time flew by and, in the blink of an eye, three months had already passed. One weekend afternoon, as they sat chatting together, Elizabeth suddenly looked around anxiously.“We haven’t christened the little ones.”Everyone paused. They had all been wrapped up in the little ones’ bright smiles and liveliness that they had forgotten. They all turned their gazes towards their omnipotent youngest son and little brother. Moments later, those blank expressions slowly transformed into confusion, carrying the same question.‘How could you forget something so important?’Chris chuckled, wearing his usual carefree manner, as though everything was under control, as always.“No hurry… there’s plenty of time. We can plan slowly.”“I don’t believe you forgot.” Adam shook his head; his confusion only lasted for a few seconds. He knew his youngest son best. In his plans, there was never a misstep nor a moment of miscalculation.He stared at his son for a while before narrowing his eyes. His voice turn

  • Never to look back   You really are the monkey king

    The next morning as everyone gathered at the breakfast table, Chris Jnr and Emm tried their luck once again, “Daddy, looking at how pitifully our little siblings were crying, can we shift to home schooling?”“We will not fall behind on our schoolwork.” Emm added with a face full of sincerity.All of the Walters, with the exception of Thomas and Angel, were in attendance; they had returned home the previous day because Thomas had to travel for a work case the following day. They all looked towards Chris with curiosity, Everett included.“Nice try... no...” Chris didn’t even have to think.“But they…” Emm pouted pitifully, “Daddy, can you bear to see them crying so pitifully?”“Why not?” Chris chuckled, “we might even add some opera singers to the mix of Walter talents.”Laughter erupted around the table except from three people. Two looked like withered eggplants, while one remained completely serious in solidarity with his treasures' plight.After a beat, he puffed up his tiny chest an

  • Never to look back   You are a Walter… you must remember, we protect… not destroy.

    Once everyone retired for the night, either to their homes or their rooms at Rosevilla, Chris headed upstairs for the one routine he had never changed. Bedtime was story time for the babies. Although the stories varied depending on their aptitude, it was time dedicated solely to them.However, when he entered, he heard Chris Jnr’s serious voice, telling the story he had told them several times.“Are you stealing daddy’s spotlight?” Chris chuckled as he leaned against the door, watching the children with affection.“How can we steal daddy’s spotlight?” Emm giggled, covering her mouth as she shuffled on the bed to make space for Daddy.He quietly took little baby from his spot where he had fallen asleep on all fours and placed him on his bed and covered him with a blanket before settling on the mat with three children on either side and beginning a new story. This time, the story wasn’t about the prince who waited for his princess and their happily ever after. Instead, it was about a dif

  • Never to look back   How could the Night Lord be so forgiving?

    Little baby rushed out the moment he heard Chris Jnr’s voice, crying loudly before he even saw them.“Big treasure… little treasure… little siblings have disappeared… I searched everywhere…”His words and crying came to an abrupt halt as he saw Chris Jnr and Emm emerging from the car holding little siblings.He marched up to Chris with a stern expression and scolded him righteously, “Little uncle, don’t you know little baby will worry? Why didn’t you tell me when you took my little siblings away?”Leo and the others who had woken up with the ruckus also came scrambling out, panic written all over their faces as they heard little baby wail. They too, turned a disappointed gaze towards Chris, shaking their heads like little adults.Chris rubbed his nose with a sheepish smile as he muttered to Emile, “Why do I feel like I'm the evil stepfather in this story?”“My thoughts exactly.” Emile whispered back with a soft laugh.“Who are you bossing around.” Darcy picked up little baby and tossed

  • Never to look back    Rewriting memories...

    Back at the hospital, Carl once again assessed all of Emile’s vitals, making sure she was tolerating the drug well and noted his observations. Just as she was about to wake up, he injected the rest of the drug from the larger 30 ml syringe at a slow rate as he activated the machine simultaneously.He

    “You said… I…sent…her….a ….message???” Abbey stammered, her complexion turning pale.Chris cursed out loud losing his composure as he stormed out the room. Night Wing hugged Abbey in a feeble attempt to pacify her before hurrying after Chris.Chris’s voice wasn’t very loud, but it did succeed in attra

  • Never to look back   How could I dare to deny my wife?

    Daniel had no intention of keeping Emile locked, probably because he was too conceited; whether it was his plan or the love that Emile had for him or the location he chose to hide till things normalized, in his mind they were all fool proof. He had no reason to restrict Emile’s movements.Carl’s word

  • Never to look back   I am your grandfather… nothing can change that.

    Chris looked at Rufus with a ridiculing smile “Senior Mr Walter, have you forgotten an age-old wise man’s words?”“What Senior Mr Walter? I am your grandfather… nothing can change that.” Rufus slammed the table trying to show off his might. However, it was still a weak attempt and looked rather comic
