FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER SEVENTEEN
I rolled to the side on instinct, and luckily, the fireball missed me. It slammed the floor with a thump and dust washed over me. Then with a wave of my hand, I swept the man from his feet and he fall flat on his ass.I scrambled to my feet at the same time as he did. He looked to be my age, maybe just two or three years order than me. His hair was short, just like mine, and he combed it perfectly. And he was clean shaven.Looking further, I realized he was the man I presumed to be Revoc from the two men. So he was just tricking me to make me think they had gone. But where was his friend? I looked at my surroundings, but he was nowhere to be seen, and I couldn’t sense his wizard's flavor.We circled each other for a while, and the all time he had the smirk on his face that sent a chill down my spine.He wore all black, the only thing deferent was his wristwatch.“What do you want in my parents’ house? And why does it look old?” I asked, with no hope of him answering those questions.H
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
I was trying my level best to wrap my head around what was happening to me. I mean, how possible was it that I would get kidnapped while asleep? That was as crazy as it sounded.I looked at Carl, and he was just playing with his paws. Drawing something on the rocky ground. What the hell have I stepped into? Ever since I got my family's wealth, my life has been nothing but hectic. Full of danger and secrets.Tried to get out multiple times. But it was like the person who called me here didn’t want me gone for some reason. Carl mentioned something about me been trapped here forever. Unless the person who locked him here allows me to leave.But I have been waiting for that person for a while and nothing at all. I have gotten nothing from my caller. I tried shouting for the bastard to show up, but he decided to hide. He chose to be a coward rather than face me like a man.“You know, freeing me will really set him off. He likes me been here and doesn’t want me to leave this place because h
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER NINETEEN
This apparently happened to be an amazing trip I have ever taken ever since I got my family wealth. Thought was just as nice as his brother Hope. Maybe Death was also sweet. He was just a tough nut to crack.Which brought a question into my head of why my parents took the Fatal from them in the first place. They seemed harmless. All of them. While I haven’t yet met their sister Void. Who Thought kept saying I will like her and she will like me.Not in a relationship thing, but as someone I can talk to in terms of marriage and the like. That she was good with those topics and that was her job. At least it was in her descriptions. When I told him I didn’t need the talk, he told me I was broken inside and that will in turn, be my downfall. Just like Roland told me.Was that really obvious? Was I that broken because she cheated on me with my friend? I loved her and that was something I can’t lie about. But I was never going to stand for what she did to me. I had to keep my dignity in chec

“You are pacing up and down because it’s Christmas eve?” Carl asked as he got up as well.It was not only that it was Christmas eve; it was the night I’m supposed to be at the company for the selling of the shares of one guy. I needed to get those shares, because if I give the leverage to one of them, they might just try to dethrone me.There were more people that wanted my wealth than just Revoc. A lot wanted my wealth. Heck, that was the only reason Maria and her parents wanted me back into their family. So, I need to be at home as in right now.“I need to leave, Thought. We will continue our conversation later. I will figure out Revoc’s location and then you four will take it from there,” I spoke.“Alright. Just be careful. And say sorry to Roland because I took you for longer period than I asked for,” he spoke apologetically.“Wait, so I’m not sleeping right now?” this was crazier than I actually thought. And Roland was in it as well. What more secrets were they keeping from me? W
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE
“Well, I can’t say your parents made me do it this time. It was also my choice to keep the truth from you because we all thought it bes. We all thought it was the best decision for you. We all thought we were protecting you from all this. But clearly, we weren’t,” he spoke and then looked at Carl. “And Carl, I’m sorry it took this much time for us to come and get you. You must have gone through hell,” his eyes were all watery.Silence stretched for a few seconds. But if the dreadfour took Carl when he was a kid, why did he wear an armour? What happened to him to wear that?“It’s fine Roland. You all did it to protect my master, and that was why I accepted to be in that prison. And Thought was nice to me. So were his siblings. Well, Death was a problem, but he is also good deep down. Just don’t piss him off,” he looked at me.“What did you all hide from me apart from Carl? Why did my parents steal the Fatal from the dreadfour? If they were friends, couldn’t they have just asked them fo
FORSAKEN SON-IN-LAW CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO
He walked to us majestically. Sparkles of lightning coming out of his eyes. I know Pit was a wizard like me and he knew a lot, just like I did. But something about his powers seemed different. His eyes never glow this bright. Ever.Something was up.“Pit, let’s just talk like civilized people. I don’t know what the hell you are pissed about. But I know we can talk about it. Just come down,” I spoke, raising my hands in surrender and Joseph did the same.Carl moved in front of me as Pit raised his fireball at me. “You now have cats as bodyguards. What money can do? Anyway, didn’t come here to worst both my time and yours. I just wanted to tell you that you should stay away from my Maria,” he spoke with a smirk on his face.“What—”“Joseph, I got this,” I told him and went around Carl to face him. I was upset about what he and Maria did to me. And I was yet to make them pay for that. But I just needed to get this crap I was dealing with over with before getting back to them.I wasn’t an

We all just sat in the living room trying to overcome what just Pit caused. But there was not much of the dust now, only the remains were there. Roland has cleaned most of it. One reason I think he was good for the job.My parents chose him for this purpose.A while after Pit left, Nathen came running inside shouting like a crazy person that there was an intruder in the house. Then he stopped and just looked at me apologetically.I don’t even remember what I said to the man because I was so angry at the moment – trying to rethink about what Pit said before he left. The only thing I remember telling Nathen was to leave my house and stay watchful the next time.Carl sat at the dining table as he enjoyed his food. But he looked sad and disappointed. At himself that there was nothing he could do or say that will make me smile. He tried cracking jokes, but nothing worked. Was I that hurt with what happened between me and Maria that I was unable to stop thinking about what Pit called me?Wa

“Carl, you are not following, and that is my final decision. This place there will be humans around. You are my cat. Literally. They will freak out. Maybe next time you can follow,” I spoke as I fastened my suit in the mirror.Ever since last night when Joseph showed me that party, Carl has been trying to convince me to let him follow me and Joseph to the party. I have told him no each time, but it was like he wasn’t giving up on that.But my answer was still going to be no, because of only one reason. Humans are not ready to see my talking huge cat. They might think there was some Vudu going on. They might even arrest me because I wouldn’t tell them the truth about Carl.I saw that my beard as even grown for the past days. But I liked it that way and I might even keep it the way it was. Also, because I just didn’t have that much time anymore. Every minute counts at this point in time.“You know, you might need me there. That Pit guy will be there and after the shity show he just pull
