They had come rushing when they heard Mira’s desperate scream. They were given only one job- protect Mira and Jack. Neither wanted to think of the consequences of failing in their duty. They ran to help… what greeted them was three grown men hiding behind bushes, two in trees and one standing frozen.

They had gotten here before Mira but decided to watch as they couldn’t make sense of the situation. They couldn’t figure out if the men started fighting and attacked each other or if there was anot

  • Second chance at happiness   Wait till I get my hands on those bastards.

    “What’s in that?” Martin, who had been silent all this while, ran over to the cart behind the carriage the moment he saw Jack, like a monkey suddenly jolted awake, the moment he saw Jack.Anne-marie was no different, clinging to Mira who herself was clinging to Ursula; the two siblings looked like they had found new life.“That’s a basin for father and mother’s treatment.” Jack answered seriously.“Wow… then you really got the healer to come?” Martin’s excitement knew no bounds. “Uncle and aunt can be saved… thank the heavens.”“Where should I take this?”“When is the healer coming?” Jerome stepped forward.“Venerable one…” Mira called out. This was the norm in the land for esteemed healers, and they had agreed to this address earlier.The footman ran over, signalled by Harrison but even before he could get close to the carriage, Eldora lifted the curtain by herself and stepped out.The moment her feet touched the ground, the air stilled. Trees that had been happily swaying paused in

  • Second chance at happiness   Wouldn’t you two skin me alive otherwise?

    Southamberston barely had time to catch its breath.Visitors arrived one after another, leaving Harrison and the others scarcely a moment to rest.Bari swept in as though the wind itself carried him, arriving before the excitement of Credi’s arrival had even faded.“You’re back.” Matthew chuckled as he greeted him. Harry stepped forward as well, welcoming him warmly.“How could I dare not come when your precious daughter made a request?” Bari laughed. “Wouldn’t you two skin me alive otherwise?”“That girl…” Matthew shook his head helplessly. “What did she ask you for?”Bari glanced around cautiously before leaning closer to the two men.“Silver Siphon,” he whispered.Silence fell instantly.“Did you get it?”“Not as many as your little girl asked for…” Bari’s face fell. “I barely managed to get hold of one.”“That is one more than any of us could manage.” Harry shrugged with a helpless expression.“How many did that girl ask you for?” Matthew knitted his brows.“As many as I could gath

  • Second chance at happiness   You know my father?

    The old man’s expression didn’t change… but the air between them did. He studied Jack for a long moment, his intent unreadable.“Then…” he murmured, voice low, “you’ve just taken something the Lion once bled for… bled to keep from his own soil.”Jack’s expression tightened, for the briefest fraction of a second. But the old man’s sharp eyes caught it.“You know my father?”“How could I not?” The old man’s gaze turned distant, a trace of melancholy surfacing as he muttered, more to himself than to them, “One does not walk this world and fail to feel the sun.”Then his eyes sharpened again, settling on the young couple.“Tell me… do you understand what you carry away?”A pause settled between them.“It is no trivial thing… to be set aside when it no longer pleases its keeper.”Mira stepped forward slightly. “We don’t… but we’re retrieving it for someone who does.”“I hope so…” The old man waved a hand, as if dismissing them.A faint exhale. “This is all I can do, old friend.I ha

  • Second chance at happiness   How dare you draw a sword at my husband?

    “You… you are the Lion of Zumerong?” He shook his head, disbelief clouding his eyes. “No … you can’t be… not so young…”“Huh?” Mira took a step back, confusion flashing across her face, but she didn’t move from where she stood, still shielding Jack.Jack’s lips curved faintly.Neither of them answered.The man moved.There was no warning… no shift in breath, no tightening of muscle. One moment he stood still, the next a blade slid free from his staff and cut through the air----and stopped.A sharp metallic crack rang out.Jack stood where he had always been.His blade had already intercepted the strike.The tip of the sword hovered inches from Mira----but it would go no further.Jack’s gaze lifted slowly.The warmth from before was gone.“You are not worthy of that face…” the man hissed, his weapon shifting between staff and blade moving as one as he struck again.“Who are you?”Jack didn’t answer.Steel met steel.Once. Twice.On the third exchange------ the staff twisted out of th

  • Second chance at happiness   Why trust someone who doesn’t trust me?

    Everyone froze at the explosive news Jerome had dropped.It took them a moment to recover, long enough to register that Linus had fainted… before they rushed to his aid.Jerome was already there, catching him before he could hit the ground. His face was stricken with guilt and regret. His lack of tact had caused this. He should have considered his uncle’s age instead of blurting things out like he used to in their younger days.“Uncle…” His voice caught.“Don’t worry… the old man will be fine,” Maryanne said gently. She took the cup Harrison offered and sprinkled water over Linus’s face.Linus’s eyelids fluttered, then slowly opened. His gaze fixed on the blurry figure before him.“Alex… is that you?” he asked weakly.“Uncle…”The image cleared.Not Alex… just mischief wearing guilt.Linus let out a soft sigh and pushed himself upright. “Don’t worry… Uncle is fine…” He gripped Jerome’s hand tightly. “But… what were you saying? You said…”Jerome lowered his head.“Is it true?” Linus pre

  • Second chance at happiness   Do you want to tell us old timers what the hell is going on?

    Ludo had just left when Harrison announced the arrival of the next batch of visitors.A very pissed-off Cousin Farris… and Uzi. They had been left behind at the Zumerong estate by the Zumerongs themselves.“We thought you were worn out from the journey,” Wilkin said with a sheepish smile. The truth was, they had been impatient… and hadn’t had the heart to disturb their rest.“Hmph!” they both huffed as they dropped into their seats, the sound sharp with lingering annoyance.But irritation didn’t last long here. It rarely did.Their expressions shifted as they took in the room… quick glances, silent counting.Jerome wasn’t there.Neither was Leander.The edge in their shoulders eased, just slightly. So, they hadn’t missed it after all.Zelda followed Jerome back into the formal lounge, her steps measured, her expression composed.Conversation faltered.“You… you… you…”Linus was the first to react. He pushed himself halfway out of his seat, finger trembling as he pointed at Zelda like h

  • Second chance at happiness   Do you think this is a hereditary anomaly?

    John and Martin didn’t stay back like they had previously planned; they quickly bid farewell, promising to return shortly to take them away and slipped away under the cover of the fog.Soren was only a day’s ride away from Southamberston. As they took a break and sat down to have supper, they met wi

  • Second chance at happiness   You’re in luck....

    John and Martin didn’t know if they were lucky or not, but on this night, there were many villagers who sneaked into the Bartel estate. No one was bothered with the presence of the other but rather drew courage from the presence of others and stealthily started searching for anything that could be s

  • Second chance at happiness   It wouldn’t be a mystery if we knew, would it?

    “Then why didn’t you?” John asked in confusion; they didn’t have to be separated for so long.“Like you said, so many things happened…” Peter sighed “After searching for you lot, we figured that he had sent you Amberton Duchy and didn’t want to make it easier for those searching for you; we didn’t w

  • Second chance at happiness   You will be my favorite aunt

    “Just like you care about me, Beth cares about her sister.” John pursed his lips and spoke in a firm voice “From the moment, I fell in love with Beth and from the moment Katherine fell in love with brother-in-law, our fates have been intertwined and will never separate until our last breaths.”“And
