But I had spent eight months learning the language of his body across distances, had catalogued it like military intelligence, and I recognized it: the slight pressure change in the ambient Aura that meant his attention had sharpened from survey to focus. I followed the line of it. Seraphina Velmere, standing near the silver-leaf planting in the center of the garden, had said something to the girl beside her that made three other candidates laugh. Her own laugh was low and composed, the kind of laugh that had been learned rather than felt, and she moved her hand in a small elegant gesture while speaking that showed off the pearl-and-gold cuff bracelet at her wrist.

I hate my IGCSEs result I hardly made it but I made it and Dad was not taking it easy on me either. I was scribbling like crazy in my book when a piece of paper makes it to my thigh. I look around for who sent it and nobody looked suspicious. I look at the board and Mr. Gilbert is focus on the textbook on his desk. I unfold the piece of paper. Should I warn you to stay away from clues? I care for you and you shouldn't do that. Ms. Adrenalin Who? I look up quickly and my eyes met Chidimma, I squint my eyes at her but she only smiles and me and looked at the board. Ms. Adrenalin?

“Well then, well then.” Giggling, but somehow taunting with his words and very presence, the mirror that serves as HIS eyes and ears to that particular book and world, unfolds the first mystery. Their first encounter and the deal that will set the beginning of the book HE entitled. “The Call of Death.” From the mirror that is adorned with the symbol and intricate mark of the Zodiacs, with the thirteen as the special one, from its fangs and core that spins this very world all along with the other six and from the original seventh. The final seventh loop of this particular book and world is about to begin, like a smile and a whispering voice echo.

From the earpiece, Agatha can hear Romeo cursing, and then barking orders to the men to get moving to their positions at the same time Agatha starts searching for Salazar in all the screens. "Find out where she took him." "I'm already on it." Agatha hisses, going from screen to screen, camera to camera, until she finally notices that same figure pushing Salazar inside a room and closing the door behind her. Oh God. Oh dear God. What the fuck are you doing? "They are in room 707, hurry!" Agatha barks, herself rushing out of the room and looking for the said room that isn't really far from where she is.

“You need a plan. You’re moving like a man who expects to die.” Dante didn’t deny it. He simply stared at the empty street beyond the gates. “I don’t need a plan. I need her.” Before Marcello could answer, the gate guard ran toward them with a phone in hand. “Don,” he said, barely meeting Dante’s eyes, “this came through for you a minute ago.” Dante took the phone. A text glowed on the screen. Pier Seven. Midnight. Come alone. Marcello grabbed the phone. “No. No. Absolutely not. This is a death sentence.”

Blood poured out, the sight horrifying. No one around us dared to speak. Only the security guards stood nearby, tense, ready to step in at any moment. I watched her spiral into madness. There was no trace of emotion in me, only disgust and a creeping sense of dread. Thankfully, it wasn’t long before the police arrived and took Deanna away. Her case went to trial quickly. The investigation confirmed that she did murder Darren. His body had been hidden in the basement of the Cunningham estate. Her actions constituted intentional homicide. Combined with the financial crimes previously tied to Cunningham Group, the circumstances were especially severe. In the end, she was sentenced to death.

"He's all I have! Jeffrey! Don't you just want me to die? Don't hurt him! I can die if you want." Jeffrey broke down and shook his head sadly. "Audrey, I never... How could I let you die?" Thud! I broke the vase on the table, picked up the shards, and held them to my throat. "Where the hell is Kash?" Jeffrey was desperate, "Audrey, I really don't know where he is. Don't hurt yourself." I froze and realized what was going on. "So that's it. You don't believe I can die..."

Although Zenith deserved to die, he decided to let it go after he told him this information. Kiran drove back to Marina Breeze Court and went upstairs. Once he found the ‘The Secret Records of Dragonsmount’ that poisoned Margaret and Marshall yesterday. He flipped to the print number at the back to see that it ended with a seven. Margaret gave him the No. 7 book of the first edition. Mr. Simmons’s book was No. 57 of the fifth edition. Kiran looked at the two books and was at a loss. There were so many books ending in seven. How could he find all of them?

“Never mind. I just thought your dad mentioned it in his sleep or something. Anyway, I’m sure we can guess it.” “I admire your positive thinking but the dial has a diameter of 7.5 feet.” “What? You said the jumbo sizes don’t start till after we get in!” “I didn’t say that! I said outside, the door would look normal. I didn’t say anything about the dial.” “Oh all right! I’ll climb up the dial and jog on it. Just tell me what numbers to stop at.” “Not numbers. Symbols. Zodiac signs.” “Well, then it can’t be that hard ’cause there are only twelve signs in the zodiac.”
