Habit 8

'THE BIG FOUR': Steven Chase Baron Sage Iphan Carter Kane Richmond A group of gangsters who for their own interests, build up a conglomerate with the label, 'X-HABIT'. Their activities are no different from vices, but their main aim is to keep the money rolling in, Kaching! Kaching! In hard, hard currency. Betrayed by one of them, the conglomerate fades into fragments of two: X-HABIT and ICE, syndicates of their own, tugging at each other's throats. Steven's regime faces out, but he leaves behind an heir, who continues the game: shuffling, dealing and cutting cards, playing tit for tat. The heir? He's Adrian Chase. A drop dead gorgeous billionaire, an Adonis and New York's shaker. Out of the blue comes 'THE MEN', a rival who watches Adrian keenly and has eyes on everything he's got. This only lengthens the saga, creating another pile of screwed up shit. Aside from Adrian's lethal life, he's got an allergy - WOMEN. Only a quartet add up to his living: his daughter, his step sister, his step mother and his nanny. The rest are no lesser than muddle-headed, fatuous bitches. Well, there's that 'bitch', a naive Megan Stones whose world crumbles when the cold jaws of death snatch her parents away, leaving her with a mouth to feed. She is a college drop-out who's a waitress and a washer-up by day, a stripper at night. Fate punches some buttons, Chase and Stone happen to meet. Strings are pulled and sparks fly. She quenches his allergy and ignites in him, an addiction: HERSELF. Their love story has its fair share of thorns but after many times of falling and rising, they solemnize their love in holy matrimony. After tons of games, gut flaunting and bloodbaths by these rival syndicates, X-HABIT is ascribed the glory.

Caitlin and Caleb awake in ancient Israel, in the year 33 A.D., and are amazed to find themselves in the time of Christ.

Ancient Israel is a place of holy sites, of ancient synagogues, of lost relics. It is the most spiritually charged place in the universe—and in 33 A.D., the year of Christ’s crucifixion, it is the most spiritually charged time. In the heart of its capitol, Jerusalem, lies the Holy Temple of Solomon, inside of which sits the Holy of Holies and the Ark of God. And in these streets, Christ will take his final steps to be crucified.

Jerusalem teems with people of all religious backgrounds and faiths, under the watchful eye of Roman soldiers, and their Prefect, Pontius Pilate. The city also has a dark side, with its labyrinthian streets and maze of alleyways leading to hidden secrets and Pagan temples.

Caitlin now, finally, has all four keys, but still, she must find her father. Her search takes her to Nazareth, to Capernaum, to Jerusalem, following a mystical trail of secrets and clues in the footsteps of Christ. It also takes her to the ancient Mount of Olives, to Aiden and his coven, and to more powerful secrets and relics than she’s ever known. At every turn, her father is just a step away.

But time is of the essence: Sam, turned to the dark side, has landed back in this time, too, and as he unites with Rexius, leader of the evil coven, they race to beat Caitlin to the Shield. Rexius will stop at nothing to destroy Caitlin and Caleb, and with Sam on his side, and a new army behind him, the odds are in his favor.

Making matters worse, Scarlet arrives back in time alone, separated from her parents. She roams the streets of Jerusalem on her own, with Ruth, and as she begins to discover her own powers, she also finds herself in graver danger than she’s ever been. Especially when she discovers that she is holding a great secret, too.

Sous l'Habit, la Fièvre Sœur Clara a toujours vécu dans l'ombre des murs du couvent Saint-Raphaël. Dévouée à sa foi, elle a fait vœu de chasteté, mais une soif d'absolu brûle en elle, un désir qu’elle n’a jamais osé nommer. Lorsqu’elle est envoyée en mission pour assister les malades d’un hospice isolé, elle ignore qu’elle vient de poser le pied à Poudain-Bassé, un lieu dont les murmures parlent d'interdits et de damnation. C'est là qu'elle rencontre Raphaël, un homme dont l’aura est une promesse de péché. Il est tout ce qu’elle a fui : la chair, l’arrogance, la tentation incarnée. Lui, amusé par cette nonne trop fière, s’amuse à la provoquer. Mais sous la soutane, il perçoit autre chose. Une femme en lutte, un brasier caché sous le marbre de la dévotion. Les jours passent, et ce qui n’était qu’un affrontement de principes devient un jeu dangereux. Chaque regard échangé, chaque frôlement accidentel les consume un peu plus. Clara tente de résister, priant avec plus de ferveur, mais la voix de Raphaël résonne dans son esprit plus fort que celle de Dieu. Et quand enfin il ose briser la dernière barrière, lorsqu’il murmure à son oreille que le ciel n’a jamais brûlé aussi fort qu’entre ses bras, elle vacille. Céder, c’est trahir sa foi. Résister, c’est trahir son propre cœur. Mais dans ce lieu oublié du monde, où les âmes perdues se cherchent, où le bien et le mal s’entrelacent, une seule vérité demeure : il n’y a pas de salut sans passion, et pas d’amour sans damnation.
