Jamal Kunis POV “I don’t know. In the library. He is always there. He almost lives there.” She wiggled the fish as she spoke, absentmindedly staring at it and admiring her win. “Is he really my twin?” The question hit me in the face and I looked down at her. “Why would you ask that? Of course, he is.” “Well, my friends say that twins are usually alike. And he behaves nothing like me.” And neither you like him, I thought. I bent down to level with her. “If you both behaved the same how will we tell who is who?” I joked. Summer giggled at the joke. “I am a girl; he is a boy. It is easy to tell.” “Everybody has a separate behaviour, a distinct demeanour. So if your brother likes to read, then he likes to read. Not even twins are alike. But that doesn’t stop him from being your brother and that shouldn’t stop you from loving him.” “I do love him.” “That’s the spirit.” I encouraged her. “Now, could you go outside and throw that fish away it is staining the whole floor.” “OK, Daddy.

Jamal Kunis POV Was it me, or was Conrad actually just growing beard? I laughed within myself for noticing that little detail amidst all that was happening. I had never taken time to observe his face under certain conditions. The candle that was underneath him in the dark room lit his jaw and obscured the rest of his face from the light. It was 12 the midnight and we were in a forest just on a clearing the White Witch had made for us. After my guard had left the castle, he came back immediately with telling me that he had met the White Witch on her way here. The White Witch informed him that she needed me at her place this night and that it was concerning the broken staff, the very reason I had sent a guard at her in the first place. I knew I could not miss an appointment with the White Witch. Not now when I desperately had unanswered questions so once it was dark, I took Conrad along and we both headed over to the White Witch before she led us to this place. It was a full moon so

Jamal Kunis POV It has been two days since I was in the forest that night when the White Witch had tried to communicate the Moon Goddess to reveal unto me who my mate was and unsurprisingly, it worked. I never doubted the White Witch powers. After I blacked out that day, I appeared in a river the colour of the moon. I sat there for a long time, alone pondering on life. I was told that I had only spent a few minutes’ unconscious but to me it felt like I was out for years before a glimmer of something came. I had sat by the river side for hours not knowing what to do. Eventually I got bored so I started looking around. I found the answers behind an old rock. Ancient scripts were engraved on the back of a stone and while reading it, it sounded oddly like a prayer. I said the prayer and the runes faded. Another set of runes appeared and instructed me that in about an hour time, a shooting start was going to appear past the moon. If I was lucky enough to see the star, then I should proceed

Methis Delis POV After loads of tea and finally, though against my better judgement, some sleeping pills, I was able to fall back to sleep but this time I was sure to do it on my bed so I had all the comfort to prevent me from waking back up. Luckily for me, daylight came in a flash. it was a big relief to finally have to leave the house and carry on with my life if that was going to stop me from overthinking about the past. By the way, it was just the past, not like there was anything I really valued from the past. They are just memories at the end of the day. I started the morning with a cup of strong black coffee. I could only hope that there were no health hazards waiting for me at the end of the road. First there was me taking sleeping pills to help me fall asleep at night and then there was me just barely 6 hours later, taking black coffee to keep me awake. Surely I might just be walking on tight rope here. I waited before the day had broken very well before I left the house.

Methis Delis POV “The SUV? Of course, I remember it. Why did you look at it so weirdly earlier when it almost hit me?” “I’ve seen that car pop up at every location we’ve been to today.” Xander’s tone was very serious and worrying now. “What do you mean?” I asked. My voice shaking. It was the first time I’ve seen Xander serious about anything and it made so much sense that even the most unserious person would be very serious about their own safety and the safety of those closest to them. “It showed up at the medieval restaurant, it showed up at the tourist temple, it showed up at the club where it nearly hit you.” Xander’s stare bore a deep hole in my head as he said his next bone-chilling words. “Now it is showing up here.” Immediately Xander said those words, I turned to see the black SUV reverse and disappear into a street. I looked back at Xander. “What the hell?” “We need to leave. NOW!” “If we leave what then?” I asked. “It is just going to follow us and know our houses.”
