Semua Bab Seth (Book 4): Bab 21 - Bab 30

This has been more awkward than before.Two weeks have passed since I almost violated Seth because of the drug and killed those two Order lackeys. That night, I drove to the agency and the gym to blow off steam.I knew my life as a hitman wouldn't be easy, especially for those who entered my life were important people.I hear noise from the men as they gather, talking. I pull my sunglasses slightly down for my eyes to see as I glance at where Seth and the men are. I observe his naked chest as it flexes every time he moves. His bare chest was visible to my naked eyes, and I couldn't help but stare at them. He and his brothers probably worked together; otherwise, they wouldn't resemble Chip N' Dales from Las Vegas. All they are missing are the neck bow ties and speedos.My whole body started to shake, and my breathing was panting; picking Seth with a bow tie and speedo and an oily body made me think dirty thoughts. Every inch of my body starts to heat up, not because of this warm weathe

I stayed in my room for the past two days, and this vacation is slowing down time. I allowed Persephone to go with Effie and enjoy a water park close to the resort, another of Odin's projects called the Seven Seas Water Park. He wanted to match the Trident Resort.I didn't go because knowing everyone was going meant Seth would be there. This is a family vacation with the Reids plus friends. It would be more awkward between Seth and me if I were to go. And now that his brothers seem to misunderstand, they will tease him, and I don't want to add more oil to their jokes when I'm around. The last thing I want for Seth is to be embarrassed.Last night, Kendall sent me a confidential file on Persephone's DNA. I didn't get the chance to open it because of my emotional breakdown, so I used an excuse to stay behind and not be charmed by Effie's art of persuasion, which finally won over her.I am sitting on the couch and opening up my laptop. I open up my email and click on the latest message.

"Here, Terry, take these," Lily hands me painkillers. I pop two in my mouth."Thanks," I smile weakly at her."Terry? Um...he should be in the restroom.""Who is Jo talking to?" Ask Thea through the loud noise from the hand dryer."It's Seth," Lily said, and she could see the worries on her face.I hear Seth's voice echoing in this small public restroom as I listen to the conversation."He's not in there. Earlier during the drive here, I saw he looked pale. Is he okay?"For being ignorant, he still worries for me. I couldn't help but smile inside. I thought he would ignore me forever after what happened. Seth isn't the kind of person to look the other way whenever someone he cares about is sad or hurt.That is one of the things I like about him."Well, we all saw he went to the restroom. How could he leave and disappear?""That is why I'm asking you, girls. Poppy is worried about him."Persephone!I want to push open the door, but Effie stops me from leaving, shaking her head. My unde

I watch my brother in arms lift his head; his eyes are now dilated, and red veins pop out at the corner. His mouth filled with white foam. He's growling and angry."Myles...snap out of it."My voice couldn't reach him. The drug has made him a rabid madman.Before I call out his name again, he hopes he understands what he's about to do. Myles launches himself at me, but I dodge by rolling away. He wailed and made some grunting noises as he continued to attack me."Myles! Please! Fight it." I'm going to keep reaching my voice to him. But his behavior because of the drug made his mind go berserk."It's no use, little Shadow," Sully taunts with a song through his tone. "The drug already corrupted your friend's mind. He's no longer the person you know.""You piece of shit! I will kill you!" I roar at Sully, making him laugh. I was caught off guard as Myles hit me as hard as he could, sending me down to the ground.My outburst only made the bastard laugh, amused by this fight he had created

It's dark.Nothing but emptiness and loneliness.So dark is all my eyes could see. The only time is when bright white light casts its rays and blinds me as black silhouettes appear.There are no faces except menacing red eyes. Their bodies are the color of the darkroom. I couldn't tell what they were thinking."Grab her," says one in a husky, dark female tone, almost demonic.My whole body trembles in fear. I let out a cry, but no voice came out. It is as if I lost my ability to speak. Another dark figure follows the one with the red eyes that had ordered and dragged me out, unsure where they take me. The weaker I've become, the more I open my mouth to protest, forcing the voice within me to resurrect. I fought to break free, but his slender hands were tight around my waist like a heavy chain, unbreakable. No matter how hard I struggled, it was too late.I was thrown off and landed on something soft. The place is still the same as the previous room. Dark and cold. My heart is beating
