The Grub street in Forester smelt of rotten seaweed, a bitter smell emanating on the breeze from the drying mud banks of the nearby stream. With every step that his horse had taken from the palace, he had passed clusters of people hailing him and respecting him. In a strange way he felt proud that they were slowly accepting him as their King and not the devil Prince, although if it had been so, he would embrace it willingly since that's what he really is. If there's one thing he learned, it's that people often look at their destiny with fear, while the stronger ones embrace theirs and mold it to fit into what they want eventually. As he rode past the street and crossed to the field, he pulled up the collar of his coat against the wind and the memory of what had happened at the Hyenas territory flashed through his head again. Soon, he was on the field where green trees and grasses spread out. The place was quiet, save the distant cries of birds and it was empty m

Selena pounced on her father with the intention to drag her claws across his face but he slid back and made her fall. He laughed curtly. "Surely, you both didn't come to fight me, did you?" Drake asked, looking from Selena to Alex. Alex straightened and walked closer."I won't intervene. She came to prove something. I leave you to her." "So, what was your own business between father and daughter?" He asked, a brow raised whole Selena managed to rise. "Because she belongs to me and it's my duty that I protect her." "But you just said you won't intervene." For a while, the two men stared at each other. "Fine." Alex finally spoke up. "I leave it to Selena." Selena shifted back to her full self, drew out two long knives from her pumps, and swerved them efficiently at her father who dodged consequently. She breathed

“What are we going to do now Alex?” Selena asked him as she could read the worry on his face. Rather than answer his wife’s question, he stared at her with a lot of things going through his mind. The thought of the relentless demon, Sathanas finding the book before them was something he could not conceptualize. That will be the end for him and his dear wife Selena. He needed to find the book at all costs and also as fast as he could.Sathanas is the main reason he has not returned to hell to rule as that will mean the end for him. He had a feeling Sathanas was also here on earth for the same objective.                Sathanas was a demon who has been trying to kill him since he was created, just like Bagdana told him. The book was the only way he could defeat Sathanas. If he can find it, he will be able to return to hell to assume his position. The last time he was in Ney York

Selena stretched her hand towards the teenager that lay on the floor before her in the ruined room. After she and Alex had gotten information that the girl and her Father had been to Edison, they didn't hesitate to travel over only for them to see a part of the house torn apart. When they entered, they could see Drake holding Selena up with his strong hand around her neck. She had become angry then and attacked him. Now the ebony-haired beautiful girl sat on the floor with wide eyes and a pale face. Her heart dropped at how scared she looked. She could relate to the same thing. Sathanas had a way of working fear into the mind of his victim. "Are you okay?" She asked but she just stared without answering."I'm asking you, are you okay?" From the corner of her eyes, she could see Drake rising from the floor and Alex came in through the torn wall. She left the girl and went to where Drake was, kicking him on the back

Alex looked up over the candles that were lit and gathered to form a circle in the abandoned temple. He had connived together with Selena and Cher to come to the temple just down the street at 4:06 am when it was still early. The temple had ancient bricks and cement that were broken in various places. It looked like it had served as a hiding place for people during wars. Alex looked around and saw the empty place that was in turn filled with broken bricks, rocks, torn fabrics, bags, wooden materials, and so on. They had cleared a small part of the place and lighted seven candles at the center as Chris instructed. "Make sure whatever you do, be careful." Alex had heard the boy tell her and she nodded before hanging up. Now they had finished the setup. The seven candles were placed in a circle, two red fabrics were tied to metal and placed in the middle. Chelsea took the olive oil she had grabbed from the store and began t
