Colin Trust's car pulled into the warehouse and came to a stop.“So this is it?” The doctor turned to his companions.“Why are you asking me? Colin is the one who's been here before.”Colin rolled his eyes. “Yeah, this is it.”He alighted from the car and walked in front of the warehouse. “See how normal and ancient it looks?” He called at the top of his voice.“What's he saying?” Dr Hill mumbled as he came out of the car. Nathan Luxe followed, and soon, the three men stood in front of the abandoned warehouse.“Can't believe this is where that bastard laid his nest. Smart, I'll give him,” Nathan said with pure contempt dripping from his velvety voice.“I didn't think Elijah's smartness was ever in question. We all know the daredevil has a brain.” Dr Hill dusted his hand that had been caught against the walls of the building.It was ancient and worn. Down at a street not many of the upper echelons knew existed in the City. He was wise to use this as a decoy.“How do we get in again?”

“What exactly do you plan on doing to stop him? Because he'll come for your position more than any of us. It's a Dr Bane situation all over again, right?” Nathan instigated.He waved nothing more but for people to hate Elijah as much and even more than he did. Although, he didn't think the latter was possible. He was a self-proclaimed Elijah's biggest hater, and he reveled in that fact.“Nothing like that is going to happen. Elijah will not be taking anyone's position, especially not mine. The one thing we should focus on right now is opening that damned door.”“I Know!” Colin suddenly snapped a finger.Two heads turned in his direction at the same time. Two pairs of curious brows lifted. One hand gestured for him to speak. Another mouth hissed impatiently.“We could find a cold hacker that would help. Bring them in, they do their thing, and we pay them off. What'd you think?”“It's good. I can call Kingston to find one. He knows the route to the warehouse, so it'd be easy for him. Pl

“What are you doing?” Tobias walked in on Elijah, pacing about.“Come here.” He beckoned on him with a raised hand.“Talk to me.”“What's the news?”“You know you can just put on the damned TV and watch the news yourself, right?” Tobias rolled his eyes.“I'm not talking about the sting this morning. I'm talking about the other thing.”“That's for you to know, bro. I have no idea. What we should be doing now is watching the flash and finding out as much as we can concerning the tragedy.”“We’ll do that. I want to—” he was interrupted by his phone ringing.“Hello?” He flipped his phone out of his pocket and answered.“Hey, Elijah.”“Rhonda?” He pulled the screen to his eyes and confirmed it was her.“Yeah. I wanted to ask if you're fine. You've been pretty radio silent since my mother's party.”He sighed internally. It was a kiss. All because of his stupid impulses he suddenly couldn't control. Now, he had one girl mad at him and the other hoping for a reunion.“I'm good, Rhonda. I'm mo

The door opened, and Elijah went into the room. He was stunned by what he saw. It looked like an actual room, alright—none of that hospital-based setting.His mother had a real bed, a wardrobe, and a dressing table. The room was so big it even contained a space for a second bed for the nurse.“Wow!” He yelled out.“Do you like it?” Tobias asked expectantly behind him.“Like it? It's amazing! You both did so well!” He gave them each a thumbs up, cheesing harder than they had ever seen him.He was like a little boy all over again. Looking closer, you could see the faintest hint of tears in his eyes.“Do you want to see your mum now?” Nurse asked.He moved closer and stood in front of her bed. The room had been set at the right temperature. She was breathing fine again.“Hey, mum?” He laughed, but it was a burst of good laughter. One filled with love and just the silliness of a little boy he now imagined himself as. The last time he had a long time with his conscious mother was when he

“Do we need to call Kingston again? It's over one hour spent here already,” Nathan hissed impatiently.“No need. I just did, but he's not answering his cell phone,” Colin said.“Yeah, maybe Dr Hill was right. I've cuddled that boy way too much. I can't even trust him enough to do something as sim–”“You should swallow your words for a second. I spot a car approaching,” Dr Hill interrupted.They turned their heads simultaneously to see the infamous head of Kingston Luxes' red sports car pull into the direction of the warehouse.“That bastard. Had to make me doubt him first before he actually pulled through,” Nathan muttered under his breath.“I see someone in the passenger's seat. A hacker, I guess?” Colin observed.His eyes squinted to take a quicker look, but when it fell entirely in the person, it snapped.“Avery?” He called out loud.“Avery? Isn't that your cousin?”The car stopped, and Kingston walked out, with Avery following right behind.“What are you doing here?” Colin wasted

“Winnie?” He asked breathlessly.She pushed past him and entered the house. Taking her time, she looked around.So this was his house, she thought. Farther from the rest of civilization. Grand in a modern kind of way. For someone who healed people without taking a dime from them, she was curious to know where he got his money from.“Why are you here, Winnie?” He turned around and shut the door.What he wanted to know was how she found him. He was pretty sure John didn't know where he lived. The only other option was Lexington.Lexington, the man who considered him a rival. There was no way he would give her his address, right? He wasn't that stupid.“This is where you live?” She asked in a tone he couldn't decipher. Although, her eyes were more telling She eyes him from his head to his toes and back. It wasn't disgust in her face, instead, contempt.“This is where I live. How did you find it?” He braved himself enough to ask. “Why? Are you hiding from the world? Why should your hou

“Uhmm, can we help you? Kingston stared condescendingly at the cops. “You're under arrest for trespassing,” Jack hissed.“Trespassing?” Colin chuckled. “Have you lost your mind? Why do you think we're trespassing? Do we look like a bunch of nobodies?”Their brashness took Montgomery aback. He knew about the rich kids of Quantum City. I had watched them on television. I even contacted a few of them, but never directly or up close.“Can you provide proof that you own this property?” He asked.Jack's eyes went to the girl still trying to unlock the door. “Ma'am, you'd have to stop what you're doing and step back.”Avery heard him and quietly moved away from the door. She dropped her tools into the box and closed it.“Now what?”“Proof either of you own this property.”“What did you say your names were, again?” Nathan Luxe asked, looking from one man to the other.“I'm agent Jack, and that's my partner, agent Montgomery.”“Who sent you here?” He further questioned.“With all due respect,

“I already knew that, but at least you're being honest now.”“What now? Do you say to heal a boy? Big deal. You've seen me heal before.”“But not like this.”“How is it not the same thing? Wasn't your grandfather as good as dead, too?”“Don't turn this around, Elijah. You healed my grandfather with herbs. The boy was different. You held him and—”“And what? If you want to know how I healed him, why don't you ask instead of speculating?” He asked, astonished.“Would you tell me? You? The same guy who does whatever he wants without care of who's hurting?” She blinked away the hurt in her eyes, hating her voice trembling. “But that's not even the point. I saw you heal the boy, and I followed your van and the car.”“And then what?” He asked, his heart beating anew.“You were unconscious when led out of the truck, but it wasn't just you. There was a woman, too. She was rolled away, unconscious, by another woman. I want to know who they are.”“Customers?” He answered, proud of how his voice
