As time flew by, Mira's stomach began to rise, her pregnancy had become obvious and the neighbourhood came over with gifts. She was surrounded with smiles, so it was a good environment for her and the baby. Little by little, her ability to walk decreased, and although it was not as bad as when she had Ethan, it was still difficult for her to continue with her daily life. Ethan on the other hand seemed to be more worried about her situation than I was, during the weekdays he slept beside his mothers bed and never let her be without help, on time I had caught him with his ears glued to his mothers belly as he listened to the baby, and when I asked what he was doing he asked me to be quiet so I wouldn't wake her up. Thanks to her condition, Ethan's hate for me slowly died while I tried my hardest to prove to him how much I loved her, but it still wasn't enough to earn his full trust.

The brothers, as inseparable as they were, grew with love from their mother and with assistance of their adopted father which was I. Wherever one went, the other followed without worry. Thomans as he was called, never left the arms of his brother. Ethan carried his brother everywhere without letting anyone else touch or hold him, I began to see light in Ethan's eyes as he guarded and treated his brother like an egg, however, some fate could not be changed.I began to notice some strange behaviour from Ethan, and I guess Mira had noticed it too. The child was distancing himself as he grew. At the age of 9, Ethan who was mad but a single friend who was the son of the principal had started sleeping over at his place. I didn't mind his actions, he was growing and had just made a friend so it was natural to value that friend.At age 10. Eth
A series of event flash right before my eyes, I feel Ethan shaking as I scan through his future, but Ethan suddenly breaks free from me, as I open my eyes I find Ethan withdrawing and clenching his chest, panting and waiting, cold sweat dripping, which I wouldn't mind, but it was winter, there was no way anyone could sweat like that during winter, "you, you're a monster." Those words hurt more than he could ever imagine, but the eleven year old did not lie. The more I tried to approach him to calm down, the more he backed away from me, he closed his eyes and hid in a corner. Seeing his reaction reminds me that there will always be people who fear me. "Ha, have it your way then." What was I thinking, there was no way anyone who saw what he did would think less of me. Putting on my gloves, Ethan slowly opened his eyes, staring at me while I pretended
The sound of raindrops on the grass, leaves and muddy grounds and more could be heard. The fingers of a hand that shot of from the carriage which had broken to pieces began to twitch. The fingers slowly got strength and dragged themselves in.Bam!!!There was a loud noise as the head of a teenager popped up. With hood dripping down his face, Malicay crawling on his knees made his way out to the open. He could hear a faint voice calling out his name. "Mal. Mal." Without hesitation the boy who was still yet to gather strength rushed towards the hand that reached out to him. He could only see the eyes of the woman he called mother. With his hands, he pushed the wood and metals away until he had been able to take it off her face and waist. Tears dropped down her face, even as the rain heavily poured.
He was determined to move forward. Right after burying the people he called parents, Malicay fled the city. He took up a new identity and started anew, using his father's teachings, he was able to raise enough money to pursue his dreams in just a short time of eight months.A young genius the people called him.A boy whose past they did not know, had settled in their city and was excelling greatly, naturally Malicay had started to become the target of the aristocrats as he had become a thorn in the flesh.It was winter, cold and snowy, however Malicay enjoyed the comfort of his house and enjoyed his privacy, lived afar from the sight of the people hoping no one would disturb him, but now he had uninvited guests disturbing his peace. There was a knock at the door, Malicay dragged his leg and answered the
There was little to no resistance, at the end, Malicay passed out with one punch. He had absolutely no idea when he was carried away, and he had no idea how he arrived at where he was, except that he woke up on the floor, to find himself surrounded by unfamiliar faces, dressed in luxurious attires. One that he could never dream to wear.His body felt sore and he had a splitting headache, he was dizzy and yet, he could not still get his brain to calm down as he was always asking questions on where he was. Suddenly he realised that he was on the cold wooden tile and got up quickly. The eyes of those around him were those filled with curiosity, and he was that curiosity. It was almost as if they had never seen a human before.Except that they looked pale and had a cold appearance and curious loo
There was no escaping, for days Malicay was stuck in the palace, wherever he went there was always one or two people following him so he had no option than to give up."So you are my brother." Malicay's afternoon break had been interrupted by an unknown woman. He was sure the castle had fewer people today, other than his family as the rest had gone to hunt. However she was a face he had never seen and she had just addressed him as her brother. An unexpected twist had arrived as he realised he knew nothing about his family.He had no intention of greeting her even if he wasn't planning to be rude, he had succeeded in avoiding each and everyone that had approached him, but this girl was different. She was bold and daring, to the extent that she blocked his path until he replied to her question. "I have not a
He hadn't expected to be treated as a Golden egg without a price, but what he got was far worse that he instantly regretted his decision. In order to bring out his hidden ability, he was locked up, beaten, mentally tortured and worse by his father's order. At a point he began to fear the man who called himself his father. He dared not raise his head before his father as it would attract punishment."A leader deserves respect Emerald, you are my son, and one day you shall take over so I expect the absolute best from you, do not fail me Emerald." His father would tell him.His first kill was at the age of eighteen. The boy who had never hurt a fly was forced to take the life of something bigger than a fly, a deer. For hours he locked himself in his room and wept, his innocence was his weakness and they were bent on breaking that will.
Martha.Six years later.That day, while I returned back with the groceries, I found the twins staying as far away from the house as possible. I had to urge them to come in without knowing the situation. Only after that encounter did I know what was going on between the three and why they hid outside. Malicay was unable to live in his own house after that day, he was so furious that he was almost out of control, if it weren't for Mira watching him he would have done something crazy to his brothers.I then had also thought it might have been a misunderstanding until my memories slowly started returning and I realised I needed to protect Ethan. We were all falling into one big trap, and even Richard was a pawn, I had so many questions like, how I reincarnated, why so many of us had also reinc
