ROZETA:I sluggishly drop my bag on the center table before plopping down on a sofa nearest to it. My body was a bit heavy, more like it has been in use all day. Should be an effect of being away from any tedious activity for over a week.I relax my back completely on the sofa, my eyes shutting close as I move to get my body back in order. Since I was the only one in, I didn't care about how I was sitting which is why I just went for a very careless position by having my legs on the table. This was most definitely after I took off my shoes with both my feet as aid.I should be glad I had that unplanned one-week break away from work. I guess I missed what it meant to be free and not be without any unnecessary pressure that I get from work each time I'm there.'I'll be seeing you around, Rozeta.'Those were just simple words from the man but they felt like he meant what he said. It should be something figurative but I think he was being literal. It was giving me a headache thinking abou

ROZETA:I'm dying. And it isn't a drill.I woke up all of a sudden from my sleep and I found out everything was wrong with me.My breathing was hitched and I was sweating all over even with the electric fan turned on. Moving my body proved to be difficult as well as it seemed like I was glued to the bed. All of that was enough to make me scared.I want to scream for help but the words couldn't out of my mouth. None of my body systems seemed to function and for a moment, I could swear I was going through paralysis.In no time, tears start seeping out of my eyes and down the side of my face. I couldn't bear the difficulty anymore. My life was being forced out of me right before my eyes and it was the most horrific thing that I could ever imagine.As I stare up at the ceiling, I start to recount how unlucky I've been in the past one week. One good week at my place of work would have prevented me from going to that nightclub and then having a twist of fate. I am not one to have this type

JAX:My reflexes helped me grab the attacker by the arm before I got to the ground, so we both crashed at the same time.I didn't hesitate to get up on my feet as soon as the momentum of the crash leaves me. I was ready to face the challenger without backing out when I notice it was someone I know."What the hell are you doing, Manuel?" I ask in annoyance as I face my right-hand man who looked like he wanted to do something dangerous."No... what are you doing?"The question he throws back puts me on the edge instantly even though I haven't deciphered what he's talking about. I check around for any intrusion first before saying, "What's going on here?"He takes a step toward me but I have my hand raised. "Stay where you are!" I tell him to which he adheres."I followed you all the way to the human girl's place thinking you were going to get the job done on her. But what did you do? You stayed there with her and helped her until the whole phase of her possible turning passed," he says

ROZETA:'Rozeta, take a deep breath. There's nothing wrong with you. It's just a stupid voice in your head. You're only imagining things, trust me,'I keep telling myself that inwardly just to ensure I have not gone crazy. As a matter of fact, I think I am crazy. Because if not, why would I be thinking I heard someone speak in my head when there was nothing of sort?There was absolutely no way that what I thought I heard was from my head. It was just a fraction of my imagination. Possibly from the stress of all that I've been going through this past one week.'When you're done reassuring yourself, then we can talk,'I jump from my bed all of a sudden at that. This time I was sure of it. It wasn't just me thinking some random thoughts. Someone was speaking to me. But I would be indeed crazy to think it was actually inside my head.I look around. I need to find the intruder. No, I have to leave this place before I get attacked by whoever it is that has made his way into my room.'There

ROZETA:I've been trying not to think about it but I'm not sure if that can work. No other thought seems to flow in my head other than that of the thing I still can't believe."What then will happen to me now that I have you?" That had been the question I clearly needed an answer to and the response I got was frightening.'Since I'm inside of you, it means we have become one. And that also means you are what I am now.'Where did I go wrong with my life? Why do unexpected things keep happening to me?To be honest, I still can't tell what I did to get to work because I shouldn't even be here in the first place with all of this. Perhaps it was the feeling of knowing I would get into trouble with my supervisor that actually created a rift between staying home and coming to work. But now that I think about it, I should have gone with the best option which is staying home.I haven't heard from the voice since I arrived at work. Not that I would want to hear it speak to me in the first place

JAX: "How sure are you about this?" I ask soon after i take a seat to act like i was genuinely interested in this conversation we are about to have. "A hundred percent," is his immediate response to the question. I have to try to think of what to say next because i didn't want to make the mistake of letting him know i might have a hand in the issue. With my hands folded below my chest, i ask him, "So why exactly are you here? It's clear to me you need something from me which is why you showed up here." "Of course i do," he says without blinking an eye. "Father asked me into look into it so i decided i'll be needing your help," "And you really think i would be key in helping you find the illegal bred?" I ask him. He nods to which i then move to act like i'm deliberating on the issue. But the pretence deliberation leads me to think about something that i think would help my personal affairs in place of his. "Whoever it is you are looking for, did you trace that down to the human

ROZETA: I expected to be in so much pain but the only thing i felt was numbness. So numb that i could feel any part of my body. It took me a long while to realize my body seems to be wrapped around something. I try to flicker my eyes open just so i could find out what that is and when i do, i am surprised to see i was not actually hit by the car. How it happened, i don't know. But i know i heard a loud thud that clearly signified an impact with the approaching vehicle. The fear of knowing that whoever it is must be badly injured now keeps me on edge. I am desperate now to see the face of the person that it has me asking in an almost incoherent voice: "Are you okay?" There was a bit of adjustment before the face of the person comes to view. And i won't lie, My heart skipped upon sighiting who it is. Seeing i was aware about the identity of the person, i was filled with a wave of safety that i didn't know i needed. Most especially when my eyes come in contact with his. The overhww

JAX:If i had been a fraction too late, I don't know what would have happened to her. For all i know, she could have been dead.There was a huge tendency that she could have made it out alive but her chances were slim as she waasn't fully developed yet to resist impacts like that. It would take her first shift to unlock that kind of potential in her.I'm surprised she took everything calmly when i spoke to her after the incident. I would say she was already getting a hang of the situation. Perhaps she was feeling like there was something outwrordly about her entire situation now.I had ben pushed to tell her the truth about her new existence. Even been pushed to tell her what i am. It was Voden's reminder about time not being right yet that prevented me from doing that.Thinking about it, I find Voden's stance on this whole issue confusing. He was annoyed that i made that kind of deadly mistake but then doesn't want any harm to come her way. I don't know how more confusing that could

ROZETA:"I need an answer." I say as I make a deliberate attempt to reach the entity in my head. Call me stupid but then I really needed more clarification on what I discussed yesterday with Jax.'To what?' almost as soon as that did I get a response from the entity in my head. Just enough to know that it was indeed there."Tell me the truth about the mark on my neck. Is it the reason I'm like this? The reason I can hear you? The reason things around me seem to be more different than normal?"I stand up from my bed and then walk up to the mirror to take a look at what I was trying to talk about with the voice in my head.As usual I reach for the mark and feel around it. I still have no idea how a mark that disappeared can come back to become a scar.'First I'll need to know what prompted your curiosity...'I give a ridiculous face that I can see through the mirror. "What other information do you need other than the fact that I'm not comfortable with the new change I'm going through?"

JAX:All day I have been trying to reach Wade. I'm not comfortable with knowing that he left my apartment just like that last night. Who knows what he could have done during the time frame of me trying to ensure Rozeta's safety?One thing I know for sure is that Wade was good at tracking someone down. I won't be surprised if he actually did look into my sudden disappearance... that's if he noticed. Which is why I have to ensure he doesn't do anything like that."Manuel, what have you got now?" I say into the phone as I pace about in my office. I should be talking to him through the mind link but then my state of mind wouldn't let me get that done the proper way I should."Nothing yet," Manuel says, "But do me a favor and wait for me to reach you. You're not helping me out here with your numerous calls.""How do you expect me to wait on you? It's nighttime and I still haven't been able to get to my brother. Who knows what he could be doing now?"I hear Manuel sigh from the other end. T
