Elijah lunged towards Ivan and punched him in the face. The force of his punch sent him flying into the air. As he fell, he fell directly into Elijah's waiting arms.He doesn't waste time in wiping him on the ground. In seconds, he's on him, throwing punch after punch. There's no space for him to breathe or move a limb.“I told you not to fuck with me!’ Elijah spat on his face. “Now, I will explain why you should have listened to me.”Shoving his hands deep into the gods' eyes, he extracted them.Ivan let out a thunderous scream, and it started to rain steel and wood from the sky. They all fell directly on Elijah's body, slightly dragging him off Ivan.He slid out from beneath his body and jumped to his feet.“This is not over, boy!” He held him by the neck and twisted it.Elijah kicked him with his heel and his elbow at the same time. When he jerked back, he twisted his neck back into position and sent a disrespectful slap across the other gods' faces.“You bastard!” He stumbled bac

“So you're still searching for that ring, huh? I thought you would have given up on it already. I don't think it exists.”“Good thing I didn't ask you because it does exist. Mr Anderson saw it with his own eyes before he passed away.”“Well, anyone could wear a similar design of the ring. Doesn't make it the same.” She shrugged to give off the idea she was being calm about the conversation, but deep down, she wished she could easily convince him.“Why do I feel you're trying so hard to dissuade me from thinking Elijah has the ring I'm searching for? And why have you not shared with me everything you know about him?” He raised a suspicious brow.‘So much for manipulating him,’ she thought. She had forgotten they were the same people, just in different bodies.Colin was too brilliant to be easily outsmarted. She would have better luck persuading someone like Kingston Luxe.“I'm not trying to get you to do anything. It's just your obsession with that ring is becoming unhealthy. You took

Colin laughed at his friend's reaction. “You haven't even heard what I have to say, and you've made up your mind?”“As long as it's about that bastard, I don't want to hear it. The absolute gall of that man!” “Uh-huh. What did he do this time?” “What did he not do is the right question! I hate his guts so much. If I could, I'd strangle him with my bare hands,” he said with gritted teeth.“Wow. That's an unhealthy amount of hatred you're spewing there, don't you think?” Dr Hill asked, self-righteously.“You're the one to talk,” Nathan scoffed. “No one could tell you otherwise when you hated Dr Banes, so much so you were the frontrunner in the agreement that he had to die. Don't lecture me like you have any morals.” He rolled his eyes and threw his face to the painting on the wall.He'd much rather look at it than at the hypocrite. If it were left to him, Dr Hill would be kicked out of their circle. He was the most giant clown he knew. He always wanted to appear like an excellent guy

Tobias intuitively stood in front of his phone as his supervisor approached.“Tobias? Is that you?” The overly tall man with naturally slouched shoulders questioned.“It's me, sir,” Tobias stuttered a little as he tried to keep his voice at a standard pitch.At the other end of the line, Elijah grew weary from worry. Worry that Tobias must have done something he wasn't supposed to do. Why else was he acting so nervous?“But why are you here on your own? You're always supposed to be with your assigned partner in the dark room,” he said, his eyes darting across the room before resting on Tobias again.“He– he had to opt out last minute. Something else needed his attention,” he explained.Elijah rolled his eyes. He could tell that was an outright lie. Maybe it was because he had known Tobias for a long time. No wonder he was acting weird.He did feel a little bit sorry for him, though. In a bid to help him, he got tossed into this problem.“Really? You should have reported to me then. Yo

Snow returned when Avery left and met Elijah, pacing back and forth.“What did the pretty lady want?” He asked, following his movement.After only a few seconds of his eyes dwindling from one place to another, his gaze wavered, and he sat down.“They know about the lab. I have to get everything out before tomorrow, but he the fuck am I supposed to do that?”“Simple. You're a god. Just wave your finger, and it's done.”He hissed. “I wish it were that simple, Snow. I wish.”“What do you plan on doing?” “First, I need a large truck. But where could I possibly get one on such short notice?”“Uhmm, Sandy's pet parents can help.He abruptly stopped and slowly turned around to face him. “Who's who?” “Sandy,” he repeated as if he was supposed to know who that was.“Who the hell is Sandy?” “Our neighbor's pet cat? I always talk about Sandy. How come you still don't know her.”“Snow, the only neighbors we have are both about thirty minutes drive away from us. Of course, I don't know, Sandy!”
