Everyone tries to tell him how he’s supposed to act but no one is interested in knowing what he went through for years after losing his mother.That was Asher’s thoughts as he roamed deeper into the woods, he hated the fact that anytime anyone wanted to intervene, they’re always telling him to make up with his father.“Can he just get away with things just because he’s my father?” He asked himself, sobbing as tears streamed down his eyes.He clutched his chest tightly as he walked and it wasn’t until he got to a big oak tree that he finally stopped walking.“I’ve tried to forgive him for years but I don’t even want to see that face anymore!” He yelled at no one in particular.“I don’t have a mother now because he refused to come home when we needed him.” He cried, the tears falling inevitably and refusing to stop.Asher held his legs close to his chest as he placed his head on his knees while memories flooded him.The memories of his last moment with his mother has been haunting him s
“I apologize for Asher’s behavior.” Abraham said, bowing in front of Lyon who only smiled and shrugged it off.“You don’t have to apologize, it’s really fine and this is like the fifth time you’re apologizing.” Lyon responded with a smile that made Abraham smile too.They both got comfortable on the couch and for what seemed like minutes, neither of them was able to say anything.Abraham didn’t want to talk and Lyon wouldn’t stop being scared of saying something that would strike a chord and ruin the morning again.He was starting to doubt his ability to solve these kinds of problems, maybe it would be best if he stayed out of it like Chelsey had suggested but he couldn’t possibly do that.He doesn’t know about their relationship enough but Lyon knows that both Abraham and Asher love each other so much and no matter how hard he tries, he can’t ignore that fact.He wants them to get back together like father and son, he wants to see what their relationship would be like and a part of h
BACK AT HOME WHERE KELVIN AND ELEN ARE.Kelvin was breathing heavily and even though he had gotten stronger, he couldn’t believe that he couldn’t still keep up with Elen.“How are you not tired yet?” Kelvin asked breathlessly as he clutched his chest and tried to regulate his breathing.His relationship with Elen had gone so far that now both of them are comfortable with each other and in order for Kelvin to get stronger Elen had suggested that they both go out together.“Because I’ve been doing this since I learned to walk and talk,” Elen responded as she slashed the final beast, revealing its core.“Finish him off.” She ordered and Kelvin did as he was told. He wasn’t surprised when he felt his powers getting stronger and he felt as though he had gotten more powerful than when Lyon left the house.He only had Elen to thank for it because she never left the house for a mission without him and since Lyon had a protective veil over the house, beasts rarely came there.“We’re done for t
“Fuck.” Lyon groaned as the knife cut him and the blood that came out of his finger from that cut was an unusual amount.“That’s the second time you’ve cut yourself today, are you okay?” Chelsey asked as she rushed to Lyon with a napkin to cover his blood.“I’m fine,” he assured her but despite the fact that he was trying to be fine, there’s this nasty feeling in the pit of his stomach that makes him feel like something is terrible.He wanted to call Elen and Kelvin to pose the question but since arriving at this place, there had been no cell service so there was no way he could.He couldn’t possibly teleport too because that would be going against Abraham’s rules and he had made a promise to himself that as long as they are here then Abraham is the master.“I just really think something is wrong.” He explained to Chelsey who cleaned the blood off Lyon’s fingers only to see that he had completely healed.“You know, sometimes, I forget you don’t need medical attention,” Chelsey sighed
Three days had passed and Kelvin still hadn't woken up even though they had removed all the strange particles in his body.“Are you really sure he’s going to be okay?” Elen asked one of the organization's medical attendants who nodded positively.“He’s just an ordinary person and his body is weak against these kinds of attacks so he’s going to be fine, it’s just going to take a while.” She explained to Elen.“How long do you think it’s going to take him to fully recover?” Elen questioned but the attendant only shrugged.She has been trying her best to be strong and not worry too much but no matter how hard she tries, she ends up being even more worried.Kelvin was lying with his eyes closed and also in an obvious state of coma, it was hard to not worry about him.“Elen, I need to talk to you.” Akira’s voice jolted her out of her thoughts and she stood from Kelvin’s side to go with him.“Did you find out what kind of creature it was?” She questioned but Akira shook his head negatively
“What?!” She yelled before she could have a hold on herself, she couldn’t believe her eyes especially when she just spoke with the attendant and was told that it could take a while for him to wake up.“You look like you’ve seen a ghost, what’s going on?” Kelvin choked out, his body still felt numb and he couldn’t move.“You— y— How are you?” Elen stuttered, fumbling her words but making sure that she was still able to say something.“I’m not so fine,” Kelvin winced, “I’m having a bad headache and I can’t move my body.” He explained as Elen’s eyes widened.“Where am I and can you please dim the lights? I can barely see.” He said in a low tone and Elen did as he asked.“So, will you tell me what’s going on?” He asked and she shook her head, she still looked like she was petrified and could barely speak.“Just lay still, I’ll be back in a minute!” She shouted and before Kelvin could say anything, she was out of the ward room.Kelvin looked around and it didn’t take long for him to realiz
“What do you mean he’s awake?” Akira asked when Elen and the female doctor explained to him that Kelvin had woken up.“I was as surprised as you, Sir, but we need more time to study his body system and hope his early awakening isn’t going to be a sign that something horrible is going to happen to him.” The doctor explained.Elen understood what she meant by that perfectly, it’s almost impossible for people with their kind of power to wake up after being possessed by a powerful entity.But in Kelvin’s case, he’s just as weak as weak could be and he had woken up already, asides for the partial paralysis which will wear off soon, he seems fine.“You think he might turn around and die?” Akira said, hitting the nail on the head while Elen’s heart did a double flip.Despite understanding the risk of Kelvin’s awakening, she had told herself not to think about it and if it wasn’t for the fact that she had to report to Akira, she wouldn’t talk about it either.“That might happen and there’s an
Elen was beyond shocked as she heard him speak and he was also smiling, she never would have thought that Kelvin would accept the terms.“A— Are you serious?!” She asked, “do you know what you’re talking about?” She added but Kelvin only smiled wider as he sighed.“I understand perfectly and I really think it’s a good deal,” he laughed, “just let Lyon know that he’ll always be my best friend, even in my grave.” He finished.“You don’t expect me to want to stay alive even after knowing that I could be a potential danger and not just to the organization but to you too and Lyon and the rest.”“I can’t let that happen.” He finished and unable to say anything, Elen only smiled as she stood to her feet.“You should rest, you need it, I’ll be back soon.” She assured him and Kelvin nodded as he watched her walk out of his room.Elen lingered around, she had no idea what it was but she knew that she was waiting for something, she was probably waiting for him to change his mind but that never h
