Looking closely at my hands, I had some markings that I didn’t even understand. I looked at Void for an explanation, but instead, she smiled at me. What the hell was she doing to me? What was her aim with all this?Then I made something out of one marking, it was a polar bear. But why would she give me a tattoo of a bear on my wrist? Again, looked at her but she was just smiling at me. Then I realized she hadn’t told me why she was testing me. What was the point of all this crap?“It’s a sing that you are in all with your thoughts. A polar bear signal that. And the rest of the marking only shows me your characters. Mostly,” she smiled at me. “I know it’s weird, but it was necessary to do this to you after I heard you are going to foe. Because the carnage will kill you there if you are not in all with your thoughts,” she spoke.I looked at her even more. “I don’t see the reason why you had to see me naked. You could have just told me you needed me to be in all with my emotions and feel
I sat in the room alone. Trying to think about what Void just told me. She decided that I needed time to think about things. To think about what I was going to do and the best way to deal with my emotions. To be able to separate my emotions from my actions. Because that will supposedly allow the carnage to kill me.When I asked her about the carnage, she just told me I will find out about it when I go to foe. That was also what Carl and Roland told me about the things they thought I was not ready to hear. That it will be better I find out for myself.But after she left, she allowed me to cry on her shoulders. To let it out as she said it. That Maria broke my heart beyond anything she had seen so far. And who am I to argue? She is the damn goddess of sex.She told me I was trying to act strong, and that everything was okay by chasing after what I shouldn’t be chasing at. Yes, Revoc followed me, but she told me I might as well want to follow him and punch him. Because at the moment I ne
“Carl?” I asked as I withheld my orb. “What the hell are you doing here?” walked to him and running my free hand over my face.“Because I came to see them,” he looked over my shoulder.“They meant that much to you, er?” he just nodded as he walked past me to look at the statues of my parents.I know they took him in. And I wasn’t trying to be too hard on my parents. But they allowed him to be locked by the dreadfour all because of the fatal. What value does it have that they risked the life of the only friend and I had?Was that important to them? But they lost it to Revoc. But if it was that important, why didn’t they do anything to get it back from him? Why did they allow Carl to still be locked with the dreadfour?Things just didn’t make sense to me at the moment. That was the reason I needed to be alone at the moment. To wrap my head around what was happening at the moment. I needed what made them do what they did. Because of all the questions that came with whatever they did to k
“I told you guys what you wanted me to do will cost me. Look what you have done to me. I shouldn’t have listened to you guys,” Maria spoke, with tears streaming down her cheeks.Her parents sat opposite her. Listening as she complained to them about what happened at the party.“If you didn’t make me want to sleep with Pit because you wanted his father to work with you, then I would still be with Justine. He was a good-for-nothing son-in-law. But look at what happened here. At least he loved me,” she cried all the more.They just looked at her sadly. If only they didn’t force their daughter to sleep with another man for money, then none of this would have happened. Maria would still be with Justine and she would have been living the life of an even rich woman.But all that was gone now. There was no going back to it.“I’m sorry, my daughter. You know, we were only trying to do what is good for the family. We thought you being with Pit will help us since his father’s company does well,”
“Justine, just wait a bit longer. You need to think about what you are about to do. This might be the thing that kills you. Just let the dreadfour deal with this all. It’s there Fatal after all,” Joseph spoke as me and the dreadfour stood beside the tree. All of us. “And I can’t believe you took him wherever you two went,” he glared at Carl.I just smiled at him. I needed to do this. I know it might be the thing that kills me. I was facing someone that killed my parents. A lot of emotions were involved there. But it might also be the reason I find out about who I truly I’m.To know what my parents kept from me. Because Roland and Carl both said nothing that explained full well what was happening in my life. Why my parents betrayed the dreadfour if they were friends in the first place. Why they allowed carl to be locked. And how Revoc managed to kill them and get the Fatal from them.They just told me that I will find out the rest when the time is right. That I just need to take heart.
I looked at her as she looked down. Avoiding my questions. I mean, what the hell made her think she could follow me here? I was already worried about the dangers in this place. The carnage the place holds was worrying me enough. And just last night I was talking about her with Void, and here she is in the land of foe with me.I tried opening another gateway, but it was for nothing. Nothing worked at the moment. I looked at the dreadfour but they just gestured their hands. signaling they can do nothing about that.“There is only one gateway out of foe. You can’t open your gateway,” Carl spoke, and I saw the terror in Maria’s eyes.Before I could even speak, Joseph began, “we will leave you two alone. You have a lot to talk about. Guys, let’s give them space. We need to find shelter because the sky looks like it will start puling down soon,” he spoke and gestured for them to walk ahead of us. Keeping them from earshot.I just glared at him as he smiled my way. That was why he was smilin
I waited for Carl to yet answer my question about what he meant when he said home. He sounded happy and as he looked at me, his gray eyes glittered with excitement. But he didn’t want to share that with me. He was just smiling.We walked into yet another forest, but this one had green trees. Perfect leaves. Like someone has been maintaining it perfectly. But I still saw the mountains and something about them was just amazing. They reminded me of something that I was yet to comprehend.Then, just as I was about to ask him again, some people came from the trees and blocked us. This just got interested.I hurriedly called to my wizard powers. And they responded with a tingle all over my body. Carl just smiled as he looked at me and then walked forward to them.Looking back, the rest of the team seemed ready for anything. Joseph tapped his werewolf, and the dreadfour did whatever they would do to keep themselves safe. But of course that leaves my wife.“See what I was talking about? You a
I didn’t even know what to say to her claims. On one hand, I would believe her because they sounded believable. And she looked like she was telling the truth. She even cried as we walked, but kept that between us. Everyone seemed to be busy with whatever they were talking about.But again, I couldn’t believe her because she was her. She could lie because I wouldn’t allow her in my heart, she thought the only option for me to allow her in my heart was by lying to why she did what she did. And Joseph was helping her with that.I still haven’t talked to him about what he has just done. Because this was stupid. Allowing her to follow to the land I myself had no idea of was not clever or helping me. He just killed me, actually. Giving me more things to worry about.Then she brought up the thing of her getting married to me even when I was poor. That she didn’t consider my status then, so why would she care about me having money now? And I have to say, this was convincing. I just walked in
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
