I told Maria what I just heard coming out of Joseph’s room. And as I was explaining to her my theories, she just sat on the chair opposite me. Her face was expressionless.“But you can’t think he would do that, do you? I mean, we are talking about Joseph and my sister. They don’t like each other in the slightest. You saw what was happening during dinner last night,” she pointed out.“I know it’s crazy, but what can we do about it? Do you think we should confront them about it? Because I can’t stop thinking about it. And I couldn’t even sleep,” I told her.She was silent for a while, then spoke, “I think we need to give them time to come out on their own. Surely Joseph can’t hide this from you for longer periods. He will get back to us very soon,” she spoke as she rubbed a hand on my arm. “I know this has had you startled. But I need you to relax and think about something else. We don’t have to give them an impression we know something. I know he is you friend and the news that he lied
I stood about five feet from the naked Void. She just looked at me. Questionable and mad. What the hell did I just walk into? Was she even married? Or she was receiving some guests because she was the goddess of sex? Can my life get any more crazy if not getting involved with the dreadfour?I didn’t even know what to say to her or what to do? So, I just turned to face my back on her. This was crazy. And if Maria were to hear of it, she was going to be even more mad and allow me to sleep on the couch for more days than she planned to.“Void what the hell? Why are you walking naked? I know this is your place, but is walking like that really necessary?” I asked her. Keeping my voice calm. I was in her place and she would beat the leaving hell out of me if I’m to say anything stupid.I heard and felt her presence behind me. She was closer to me. What was she doing? First the tab and now this. This woman is crazy.“I’m the goddess of sex and this is something you are worried about? I’m goi
“What do you mean it’s my fault you two are not together? What did I do?” I asked him as I sat on him. “I didn’t even know you bastards existed until recently. How does this involve me,” I added as an afterthought.He was silent for a while, then spoke. ‘It’s your fault that crazy cousin of yours burned the tree to the opposite house. That made me get out of my habitant. And then we fought because I refused to leave with her in the house,’ he said.I thought about what he just said. Everything involved me here. Revoc burned the tree to the opposite house because he wanted me to remain there. Because he didn’t want me to leave foe or he was delaying me.“I know this sounds like my fault. But what Revoc does with his life doesn’t involve me in any way. But the tree is perfectly fine here. Why did you leave?” I asked him, looking over at the tree.‘After he burned that one, it sort of threw me out. Rejected me so to say. I can’t go back there. Maybe later, but not now. And I can’t be lea
I pushed the door without even knocking. He was sitting on the bed. Then he looked at me. He looked down. Probably thinking about what he had just done. What the hell even made him do what he did? He hurts Suzen with all his life. But he went on and slept with her. And he kept that from me. I wonder when he did that even.“Hey, man. Can we talk?” I asked him as I stopped three feet from him.“Sure,” he said, and I took a sit on the chair. “What do you have to talk to me about?” He smiled my way. But I could tell he was forcing it.I smiled as I shook my head, “Joseph, you are the one that has something to tell me. Are you sure you are not hiding anything from me?” I asked him.He was silent for a while, then shook his head. So I went on, realizing I didn’t have time for us to start going back and forth about the same things. I needed him to tell me what happened and first. Because I was expecting someone to show up. “I know what you and Suzen did. And the fact that you didn’t tell me
“I just don’t know what I need to do, Hope,” I told the man as I lay on a couch that was the design of those in therapy offices. While Hope sat on a chair, making this even better for my cause.After my talk with both Joseph and Carl. Then, talk with Carnage, I realized I needed help. I needed some time away from all of them and just to talk to someone that does care about my feelings. Someone that will help me understand what I’m going through. Well, not fully, but it was kind of his job. Give hope to people. Tell them to keep holding on to dear life.“Well, tell me what you feel about her? Why you allowed her in your life without fully forgiving her,” he asked as he wrote in his book. He was fully a therapist. Crazy old man.“Sometimes I think I only did it because all of you kept telling me to give her a chance in your own ways. Because I wanted to give her a chance. Because we never give up on family. I think that is one of the reasons I did let her in my life again,” I explained
I looked at him as he tried to avoid the question. But I was not letting go of it because of that. I needed to find out, and not when it was too late. That is when I’m becoming interested in finding what it is used for. They just keep saying they need the Fatal to stay safe. That it shouldn’t end up in the wrong hands. When it was already in the wrong hands.I looked at him as he carried on, looking from side to side. “Hope, I do have the all day, mind you. If you don’t tell me what it’s used for, I won’t leave this place. All I know is you need it because it is important to the four of you. But if it’s that dangerous, why hasn’t Revoc used it yet? He knows you guys are helping me, but he hasn’t used that thing against you. Why?” I asked again. Keeping my eyes on him.“You need to leave. I’m sure Maria is looking for you. You have been here for hours. And I have work to do. I know because we are friends you think you have an exception here, but no. You need to leave,” he spoke as fast
“What do you mean you failed to get the shares? I thought you were good at those things. What the hell is wrong with you people? This is what I get for working with someone like you?” Revoc scolded as he paced up and down. Mateo and Pit sat at the table. Looking down, trying to avoid Revoc’s look. “Aren’t you supposed to be nice to him or something? I don’t really get your relationship, you two. He took you in when no one wanted you. He was the one that took care of you when your father was killed and yet you treat him like trash. I know we are working for you. But you can be nice to us for once,” Pit spoke. Before he knew it, he was flying across the room. Slammed the wall and fall flat on his stomach. He straggled back up with a groan. “Don’t ever tell me what to do, you idiot. I will do whatever I want to do to anyone. The way I treat him has nothing to do with you. Just worry about getting the woman you have failed to get from your friend. You call yourself a man? And yet you h
I stood there looking at her. She looked madly at me. But was the one that should be doing that. But I just walked to her and took my sit next to her. “I went to see Hope. I needed to talk to him after I talked to Joseph,” I told her.“You could have said something about it. You have been gone for hours. It’s almost dark outside. I was worried something bad might have happened to you. And we talked about this, didn’t we?” she asked.“We did. And I’m sorry. I just needed to talk to him very badly, and I didn’t have time to look for you at the time. Next time I will try harder,” I said and forced a smile on my face.“Did it go that bad?” she asked.I sighed and took her hand, “Well, kind of. Not much. He said he was sorry, and he was scared I was going to be disappointed in him. He was scared of what might have happened if he told me. He didn’t know how to tell me the truth,” I explained to her.“And what did you tell him?” She asked.“That he should have told me the truth. I’m his frie
Chapter 219 Carl went flying as a bolt of lightning hit him. He then came to a stop upon slamming the wall. He then turned to me, smiling in the most psychopathic way possible. He waved a hand and my sister was floating in the air, I didn’t know what to do at this point. I told her to stay away and allow me to do this. But she would be damned if she ever listened to me. “Frazer, let’s just talk about this. I know you also don’t want this to happen. She is not just my sister but yours as well,” I said, raising my hands in surrender. I looked past him to Carl, but my poor cat was far gone. But I just sighed when I saw he was still breathing. I needed to think of what to do, and I needed to think fast. Just when I started liking her and accepting her into our family, this happened. I need to make sure she is fine. That I go home with her. I can’t lose her as well. Suddenly, the faces of my parents came to mind when I found them lying dead. I don’t want to lose her. I can’t lose he
To say I knew what I was doing hundred percent I would be lying. Because all I knew was I had to put an end to my brothers' madness. How I was going to do that and if what I plan will work I didn’t know. But I was hoping for it to work. For everything to go fine with me and my family. I turned to look at Carl who was getting ready—well he was doing that by eating. Saying he needed energy for when my brother arrived. My sister, on the other hand, was on her phone. She looked and smiled at me here and there, but none of us talked. After Maria and the kids left the house with the others, I made a call to Frazer. Telling him we needed to put an end to this and that I needed to talk to him. He did mention that I should be alone—but I told him I was with Carl and our sister. And he was happy to meet her. At least that is what he said to me. So, now we waited in the living room. And the more we waited the more my heart raced. I just wanted this to be over, at this point, I wasn’t even thi
Everything for a while felt normal. But it was a fleeting moment that passed like it was not even there. But again, I did appreciate everything about that moment. The talk I just had with her changed everything else in my life. I was reminded of why I married her. Why I loved her. And she reminded me again of what family is and what I should do in this situation. I looked at my sister as she sat on her bed, facing her back to me. I don’t think I have ever been in her room before. It looked grime—just had that dark vibe to it that I couldn’t comprehend. But after talking to Maria I just smiled and accepted her the way she was. They did say she was different from me. And change doesn’t come just like that. Baby steps I guess. She finally turned with a smile, “I’m sorry this is happening. I should have been here sooner to help you take down our half-brother. Your friend wouldn’t have gone through this if I was here.” I just smiled as I walked to sit next to her, “maybe that would
Frazer wanted to hurt me the most. Not physically, but mentally. To play with me and make sure I break down slowly.He was going to enjoy that more than anything. He wanted me to feel the pain that he felt when he was a child. Alone.I can’t even blame my father or mother anymore. They weren’t good parents. But with him they did try. He just saw the bad side of us and there was no changing that.We explained to him what happened and still he was hell bent on making me pay for my father’s mistakes. Some people we meet.Roland tried to tell him what really happened but still he only took what he wanted to take from that story he heard.If he was to change, he would have changed by that time. I trusted him and allowed him to leave in my house and be a part of this family. And that was the reason we were here right now. Maria lost her sister and Alexander lost his mother. And Joseph lost the woman he started to fall in love with. I think.But all this was leading to one thing. And that th
The reason I loved Carl and always wanted to talk to him about anything that happened in my life was because he cared for me. Because he never judged me and never scolded me or called my plans stupid. Yes, there are times when he doesn’t like what I’m about to do or what I have in mind, but he never says it outright. He was always objecting to my plans in a rather nice way. But also because he was here for me. And will do anything to support me. He knew what to say to you at the right moment. Well, maybe because he knew what was happening in your head, but either way I was just happy that my Carl was here and he will help me with what I have in mind. “Where did mother and father say they last saw Frazer? We can start from there. I will try to ask around, maybe someone has seen him somewhere,” he said calmly as he sipped on the wine. I just sighed as I thought about everything. I haven't talked to Roland ever since I came here. Apart from asking him what the hell was going on when
Well, this was a lot to take in. It does hurt knowing your brother is a piece of crappy and the reason why most people are going through a lot. I have tried telling myself things will be fine and he didn’t mean anything he did. Maybe he was just upset that he didn’t want to listen anymore. But how far can he go for me to hear him? How long will it take him to learn something from what he was doing? I know we never give up on family, or anyone for that matter, but maybe my brother is long gone and the sooner all of us accept that the better. I can’t even face the people I call my family and the people I love because of what he was doing. Because of what he did I can’t be with any of them. Every time I look at Alexander I’m reminded that I’m also at fault for his mothers death. I can’t look at Maria without thinking that her losing her sister is somewhat my fault. I should have managed my brother a long time ago. I should have dealt with him when I had that chance. And the reason he
Everything was happening too fast and I was failing to keep in touch with all of the things that were going on in my life. I never wanted this to happen to any of my family members. And Suzan was the last person I wanted dead. She wasn’t my favorite person in the world, but she was the mother of Alexander and as such, I wanted her to be alive and back with her family. Was this yet another one of my brother’s plans? He played this game before and that is why we are in this mess right now. Was he planning to do something even worse than the last time? I looked at Joseph and just kept rubbing my hand on his back. I didn’t know what to say or do at this point, this was the last thing I expected to happen to him or any of us. And besides, I never knew what he felt for her, all I knew was he was drunk that night and that is how he and her ended up sleeping together and Alexander came about. That was all I knew as far as their relationship went. Did he feel anything else for her? Was he
Chapter 212 We entered the house and my eyes and my heart were filled with joy as I saw who stood in front of me. He looked old now, not that much, but he looked matured and his face was filled with fur. I just smiled as he smiled back at me, his eyes tearing up but didn’t make an attempt to move a muscle. And neither did I. I wanted to, but I guess none of us wanted to show my sister that we were weak and we couldn’t handle emotions. “You know you missed each other right?” She asked smiling from me to Carl. “He was crying every day because you were not there. And now he is pretending to be a grown up.” She added as an afterthought. I just looked at him and then walked to him, “I did. A bit. You left because you wanted to leave us behind. So, I didn’t miss you that much,” I smiled and he did the same. “But my kids wanted you. That is why I did everything I could to get you back,” I walked and hugged him so tightly I could fill his cat bones break. Then he said with a wizzed voic
After a while we finally reached the palace for the queens. And the first person that walked outside the palace was my sister. Which only made me happy to see that she was still alive and well. I didn’t expect anything bad to happen to her, but I was just scared I guess. Scared that they might not listen to her and she might do something drastic to make them listen to her. But she was alive and well. I just sighed in relief. She smiled as she walked to me and Odin. Then stopped after reaching about three feet from us. “I don’t think you have been introduced yet,” I said, smiling from one to the other. I knew Odin knew my sister, but maybe she doesn’t know him that well. Hearing about him yes, but knowing him like I did no. “So, this is my beloved sister, and sister, this is Odin. An old friend that our parents decided to place in our lives. Over all, he is an amazing person,” I said and they just shook hands. But immediately they let go, it was like a reflex from the old man — he
