The Untitled Love Story Chapter 41: New Cut
"Have fun." Granny waved as I made my way to Theron's place.He would have probably expected me to come around, but not to ask him out on a date. Would Falcon even let me take him out? I mean, she was friendly and all, but she radiated this protective aura when we spoke about Theron.Well, I was about to find out as I knocked on Theron's front door. I heard the lock click from inside, signalling the door had been unlocked."Theron, your puppy's here." Falcon yelled towards the kitchen.She was seated on the living room floor with a box of takeout in hand, shooting me a smirk as I walked in."Stop calling him that." Theron yelled back from the kitchen.There were a couple more boxes of takeout in the bin as I walked into the kitchen, Theron stood in front of the kitchen sink, dipping a plate that looked like it had been used to serve some sauce in foamy water."Hi." He said, looking over his shoulder."Hi." I greeted back, walking up to the counter."What are you doing tonight?" He as
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 40: Office Talk
Melissa snagged the coffee I had brought to the office, downing the entire thing in a single gulp. Good thing it wasn't hot, that would have been messy.Now I understood the pleasure Falcon felt when she demonstrated the power of the helm to me, only that I didn't need a helm to prove myself to Melissa."The fact that you, a fact-driven individual who laughed during a tour that mentioned myths, are standing here in front of me with this story of gods and artifacts, either means I am still asleep or you are actually telling the truth." She had said after drinking my coffee."So, you believe me?" I asked, surprised."Of course, so far you have been the source of most of the information we have. It's not like I have anything else to go on, though a helmet that turns one invisible kind of stretches the mind a bit." She replied with a shrug."Trust me, I know. I am still surprised I didn't piss my pants when I saw it being used." I chuckled."So, this thefts are just Collectors exploiting
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 39: Now On Board
"The Arcane Collectors' rules sure have a lot of loopholes in them." I stated after a moment of brief silence."I think that part's intentional. Members of the association and even teammates of some members are descendants of the ancient worshippers." Falcon explained."So the loopholes exist so they can still take jabs at each other." I deduced."Yeah, like Mr Harrison and whoever's stealing his donations to the Colgate University museum." She nodded."Mr Harrison is an Arcane Collector?" I asked surprised."A very powerful Arcane Collector." She smirked."More than Miss M?" I inquired."More powerful than Mr X." She replied.Suddenly, the feeling I got from the man that day at the hospital made sense. That cold dark look in his eyes, his disciplined expression, and the chill behind his threat.If I had actually come to the hospital to harm Theron, that would have been the end for me."So powerful, but Theron still got caught in an attack on his relics." I scoffed, recalling the hosp
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 38: Logic Left The House
Falcon had an amused expression plastered across her face as I fiddled with the helmet, feeling for circuit compartments, screws or even some uneven points I could attempt to pry open."It's always amusing to watch unbelievers attempt to rationalise the supernatural. I didn't get to see Charlie's expression, but I will settle for yours." She smirked.I chuckled quietly, not at her statement or facial expression, but simply because I suddenly realised she never once called him Theron, and I never called him Charlie. I guess we were both sticking to what we were used to."Alright, no electronics or modern technology is in this thing, but-"Before I could finish, she snatched the helm from me and slid it on her head.A chill ran down my spine as the woman vanished before my very eyes. It was nothing like you would see in the movies where a character would have to focus or disappear slowly. She just simply wasn't there."I am tempted to torment you a bit, but Charlie's asleep on your lap
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 37: The Start Of Understanding
I thought you were bluffing." I chuckled as Theron mentioned the explosion."Oh, the explosion wasn't my doing, it was Mr X's rescue team." He pointed out."Wow, did they not consider the possibility of a collapse?" I asked with a frown."I don't think they had the luxury, plus they did help sell my bluff." He shrugged in response."Do, how did you guys get out without getting crushed?" I beckoned him to continue.----Sheer luck, I guess. We just bolted towards the source of the explosion, carrying whatever we could with usYes, despite almost being crushed to death again, we still recalled to carry as many of the items we risked our lives for as possible.We didn't return to the penthouse; Mr X believed it would be too risky, but he had my things sent to our new location, though.And that was because he was sending me away.----"It would be best if Falcon explained the rest." He said as he finished, his head now resting on my lap."You two sure got comfy pretty fast." Speak of th
The Untitled Love Story Chapter 36: The Final Recap
----We were hurriedly packing what we could in the bags as Mr X tried to get some service on the special phone he had brought along.With our path of entry caved in, we needed to be extracted. I was stuffing a bow in the bag when I suddenly felt something tingle in my shirt pocket.I initially thought it was my wound, maybe Deli hadn't treated it properly. After all, she seemed more interested in touching my skin than actually treating it.But the wound was in my back, so I looked down to inspect the source of the feeling. That was when I heard a gun go off, someone had been shot.It took a while for me to see it all clearly. The torches we had lit weren't burning too brightly, but I recognised Black Eye's cargo jacket almost immediately, and it was soaking up something - it was soaking up blood.Before I could react, someone tackled me to the ground the moment another gunshot went off. I managed to make out Falcon's face as she placed a finger over her lips telling me to stay quie
