Lahat ng Kabanata ng A Monster's Mute Bride.: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

I had a surprisingly decent night. After Cane showed me the way to the garden, I'd stayed there for about an hour.The garden was magical. I've been watching it through the window in the open kitchen and I'd thought it was beautiful. But that view made no justice to beauty of the garden.The circular sitting area in the middle of the garden was straight out of a fantasy book. It was surrounded with different colored flowers and small light, which made it a delight to sit around.The garden was so refreshing that it made me want to sit there the entire night. But knowing how I was warned, not once but twice, to not walk around the Mansion by myself at night, I had to go back in to the Mansion and really call it a day.But, I'd promised myself that I would come back the next day, which was what I'd planned to do the second I woke up.Elijah wasn't in bed, as always. I took a quick shower, tied my hair at the top of my head, dressed in the usual most covering clothes I had including a

I left Ella in the sitting room, hoping I would talk to her after I dealt with Cilvia.I walked in to my study and found Cilvia sitting in my chair behind my desk.I was sure she could see the muscle under my right eye twitch.I walked over to the tall table holding a few bottles of liquor and fixed myself a drink."Why is Connor here at this hour?" She asked.It wasn't like Cilvia didn't know his name was Cane. She just didn't want to call him by his name for whatever reason."He lives here." I replied before I turned around and walked over to her."What do you mean he lives here?" She asked with wide eyes.Instead of giving her an answer, I silently grabbed her by her left forearm and pulled her off of my seat, not because I wanted to sit down but because it was mine.Cilvia snatched her forearm out of my hand and glared at me when I walked past the chair and stood in front of the window.I looked down at the garden, remembering how beautiful Ella looked when she was sitting in the

Elijah Smith...I stood in our warehouse with Dante and Cane, looking at the new weapons we successfully brought in without the Viper's stealing it from us like last time.This time around, Dante kept the date and details of the shipments between the four of us, including myself, Dante, Cane and Harvey, and it safely came to us. That made us realize that there was a rat that sold us out to the Vipers.That kind of rat will not hesitate to sale us out to the cops to save his own life.I shoved my left hand in to my pants pocket and felt the flash in my hand.I glanced at Cane for a split second, remembering the short conversation we had before I went to my room to change and get help with my tie from my wife.Cane, the mad genius, went to the Williamson's Mansion earlier after I'd seen him in the garden with Ella and hacked their system to retrieve recording of the last two days.He went through the hours and hours of camera feeds until he got what he wanted. Cane, just like me, really

Elijah Smith... I called Cane again and pressed the phone to my left ear after Ella left. I ignored Cilvia's unwanted presence in my study as I looked down at the black flash on my desk. I almost gave Ella the flash this morning, but something stopped me. "You hung up!" Cane stated in an annoyed tone. "I sure did." I replied. "I had plans I wanted to get to. What were you saying?" Cane signed before he carried on to explain. "I've already distributed half of the weapons but I got a text from an anonymous number, saying that they ..." I frowned when Cane hesitated. "They what, Cane?" I asked. "They said that they might know where my brother is and... That they would send me the location as long as I give them details of the rest of my deliveries." He replied, making me frown even more. "Are your serious?" "Yes." Cane replied, once again annoyed at me. Cane was assigned just last night, but the second he made his first delivery, words of him being in charge might have made

Elijah Smith...It took me an entire hour to get from the intersection where the accident happened to the hospital Piglet and his partner took my wife to.The entire drive there, I was fuming. The image of my wife in her bloody dress kept popping in my head. This morning when she came to my study, I was taken back by her beauty. She looked so elegant with her long dress and her silver blond hair tied on top of her head.The sight of her was so mesmerizing that I almost dropped everything I needed to do and went with her.Seeing her in her blood socked dress and unconscious truly messed with me.The traffic didn't help either.By the time I got to the hospital, I was agitated. When I got out of my car, I saw Piglet's partner standing by their car, leaning on the side door with a cigarette between his fingers.The second he saw me, the detective narrowed his eyes at me. Without saying a word, I walked past the detective and made my way in to the hospital. After asking the nurse a
