Chapter 13. A Bad Omen.
I knew he didn't want me anywhere near the meeting, but this went on for days. Am never awake when he returns and he leaves late in the night too. I am starting to think he doesn't want anyone to see me. I thought it was a joke but it seems to be a lot more serious than I thought.
"Mira, we need to talk." One night after I had made up my mind to stay awake, he said those words to me and didn't bother to explain anymore. We had agreed to meet tomorrow and I had been preparing for that for quite a while now.
I took my jacket and my boots out of the closet and put them on. Finally, I am getting a chance to receive some fresh air after two weeks. This is wonderful. I walked out of the changing room, happy but that mood was dropped in

That melody. It's a Piano, but we don't have a piano at the mansion do we? I wake up after hearing such a wonderful piece, expecting to find anyone in my room but not a single soul walking in or out. Looking around now, this place looks new, and in a far better shape than I remembered it even after the renovation, but why was it empty? Where is everybody? If no one is here then what about that sound, was it Richard playing the piano? I never knew we even had a piano. Nevermind Mirabel, let's go see first. Following the sound of the piano I hurry downstairs and find a lady sitting next to a little girl, they were playing a duet on the grand piano, that's weird, I don't remember having a grand Piano at the hallway, did they perhaps buy one when we were away, and who are they, it's obvious Richard has nothing to do here. Suddenly, they both stopped. I was
The bride of the Egos' Chapter 15. The Request.
I was watching the news when I saw something that startled me, no it didn't startle me, it pissed me off, I didn't expect my mood swings to snap just because of this but I guess anyone would have been furious. I ran to his study and barged in unannounced, regardless of this his eyes were not leaving the book he held in his hand, but I noticed that his eyes twitched in annoyance. Well I guess I could cause more trouble to gain his attention. I cleared my throat several times to make him uncomfortable and made weird noises with mouth. I stamped my feet without a rhythm and also banged at any hard surface my hand came in contact with, and finally he broke. "What???" He yelled. I had succeeded in getting his attention and now my next step was to pacify his anger. If I want this request of mine I have to be as composed as possible. For the first time
The bride of the Egos' Chapter 16. Stuck.
"Both of them will accompany you on your trip, the one on the left is Lucy and the one on the right is Brenda." He tells me. It was midday when we had set out for our trip. When I woke up I was introduced to both of them because he had already made the decision for me. There could be no objections to this so I just held my peace. "Make sure you take care of her, if anything goes wrong or she gets hurt then pray I don't find you." He threatened them, but unlike me they were unmoved. "Don't forget, just see your father and come straight home alright." I nod to that order with a smile.Regardless of the promise I had made just a while ago, I had still prepared something for my little sister. There was no way I could hold a grudge because of something that was not her fault, I would rather give her my blessing than hate her, the same goes for Peter, I couldn't blame either of them. "Stop the car.

"I'll go first." Brenda said. She made a quick call as she stepped outside, soon the caretaker opened the door and came out. We could see her from outside the gate as she looked around with caution, finally she made eye contact with Brenda and signaled for the gate to be opened. My suspicions for the caretaker rose, just who lets a stranger drive into their house, I glanced at the woman who stood unmoved, waiting for us to come in, maybe they were acquaintance, a not sure but but whatever it may be, I do hope she’s not here to harm my family. At that moment the car drove in. I was given a shawl to wrap it around my face, hurriedly I ran inside the house. At that moment when I reached the living room, I raced with speed to my father's room while Brenda and Lucy called out repeatedly for me to slow down. They didn't make any move so they wouldn't s
The bride of the Egos' Chapter 18. Secret Door.
The moment I arrived home, I hurried into my room and shut the door, there was no one at the door, and Richard was also nowhere to be found so the coast was clear. At that moment, I reached for my bag and pulled out a medium size wooden box that was almost the size of both my palms, it was decorated with blue rubies and had a symbol of a horse standing with a lion, probably butting heads, I don’t really know. I searched through my bag, turning it upside down to find the key that was buried inside. My hand felt the heavy weight of the key, I picked it up and quickly slotted it in, it was a perfect fit. I turned and twisted the key, and soon it opened. There it was, a small paper that was safely kept inside the box, I picked it up and unfolded the paper, only to find a painting of a man, and if I am not mistaken, then this man is Daniel. Our ancest
The bride of the Egos' Chapter 19. Meet Malicay.
So many questions crossed my mind but I ignored them and walked down the stairs, it had countless stairs that it started to feel like it was an underground house. Finally I stopped at a door, it was made out of metal but the metal was Rusty and old, so old that it could be broken open if someone like me even pushed it open, but something was off, the door was unlocked, I opened the door and walked in, only to find a luxurious spacious room. "Can you at least knock before entering someone's house, am trying to sleep, Mira." Heavens who's that. I felt like my soul was just about to leave my body from freight, looking around now no one was present in this room so where did that voice just come from. "Who said that?" I asked. &
The bride of the Egos' Chapter 20. A Crossdresser.
The next minute, when I opened my eyes, I found myself still lying on the bed, unable to move and I could hear the whispers of the doctor and Blake once again. Was I dreaming? Am sure they had left a while ago. Wait, what did I dream about again? Oh, my head hurts just from thinking about it. Am sure I remembered hearing the voice of someone, but just who it was. Was it really just a dream? “You know what, I’m going home, just don’t call me once it’s too late.” I heard the doctor warn Blake,, his heavy footsteps gradually fade and soon, the sound of another person tagging along hurriedly also fades. Blake must have gone after him to reason with him. I look up and take a very deep breath, only to feel a sharp pain in my stomach just before I could let it all out. “Gah.” I cried as I held tightly to the bed. It’s all it’s
The bride of the Egos' Chapter 21. Meet Malicay.
Hold on, now that I think about it, there were no ear piercings, and now that I noticed I think I've seen her somewhere, I blink thrice when I notice the familiar face staring at me with his head tilted. "Well it seems you've caught on now Mira." I suddenly realise who this is, it's impossible, is that Malicay, was this his real face? How could he look so much like a female? Malicay reached for the lower part of his gown and used it to clean off the makeup from his face, revealing a beautiful face, it was not even that different from the makeup from his face, the makeup was rather light, so there wasn't anything that changed much. I thought it was a dream but unfortunately it wasn't, my memories from that day came flooding in. If I remember clearly he promised that someone would show up soon, was that someone, him in disguise. He looks so different from what I had imagined it's like, no hold o
