Robert knew there was going to be a catch all along, he had even studied Lucian’s face and he could tell what the catch was it was all about him coming back to the clan and taking his rightful position like he had always wanted

“It’s a win for a win kind of deal to me” Lucian began and looked at Robert’s face to study his reaction before continuing, “You will take your rightful position back in the clan and I will treat your wife for you”

“You should see it as Damien standing in between you and your wife ‘cause that is how it is. Damien knew your weakness and that it is Hazel, that is the reason why he came for your wife, even I knew that she was your weakness but I never expected Damien to act in such a cruel and foul way” Lucian added with anger visibly written all over his face.

He turned to look at Robert and he could see the fury plastered on his face.

“I am saving your wife and you are saving the whole clan. I guess you value and love your wife but I value and love the clan m

He was putting on a straight face, he was clad on only black pajamas trouser while the upper part of his body was naked. The words of Liam echoing in his head again and again, now he doesn’t want to involve himself in the matters of taking down the dirty ones again, he just wants to focus on doing and minding his day-to-day business and also most of all focusing most of his attention on finding the cure for Hazel together with Lucian.

Another man by the name Samuel Bentacur lost his life also. The all abovementioned people lost their life due to bullet from what is being suspected to be a sniper.”“Also some people from where reported dead from the prison…” Robert picked up the remote on his table and switched off the television, he remembered the two people photo posted on the television, there were the two people sent to assassinate him that he had put in jail in exchange for him sa

    Antonio stood inside his huge mansion that have a very huge glass that stood as a window, he stood before it with a glass of wine in his hand staring outside at the not busy road of the city. It was nighttime already so most of the people had already retired to their respective homes. The half-moon which sit lazily in the sky surrounded by the clouds and the stars reflected on a part of his body while the other part was dark. He pulls out his other hand that was buried deep in his pockets and ran it through his brown hair, his muscles flexing and moving easily, sliding beneath his taut skin of an athlete body. He sipped from his cup, he had an expressionless face.Shit. He thought. A frown appearing on his face. It was clear that he wasn't pleased. He sipped again, the red liquid content from his cup. Lucy sat at the edge of the bedroom, she was clad in her nighties with her head bent low facing the ground and her hands intertwined together. There was a mixture of emotion on her

    Robert was clad on a black top and a gray pants his hands folded across his chest, his brows furrowed, he was pissed. Staring at the already burnt building that was black now compared to the former ash colored building that stood as his warehouse just a few hours ago. Most of the goods were lost at the third and second floor were lost, only a few at the last floor were being recovered if the firefighters haven't gotten here he would have lost all his goods completely. There were detectives, the sheriff and the lieutenant all gathered around looking for what the cause to the fire might be, for the source. "One thing for sure is that the fire was set from the inside, it was like one of the goods was caught up with the electricity or some stuff like that" Detective Thomas said with a serious look plastered on his face while he folded his arms across his chest but his voice didn’t sound with any conviction at all. Robert could feel that he was lyingHe was the one that is going to be

    Robert stared at him waiting for answer, he was getting impatient, he could feel his heart thudding loudly against his chest as he stared at Lucian who had a blank expression on his face. “Well let’s say I have got a good news and a bad news also, so which one do you want to hear first my lord?” Robert let out a deep sigh and relaxed his back on the chair he was sitting on with his arms folded on his chest. His gaze was locked on the empty space outside and then it averted to the moving cars and trucks across the road. “Aren’t people always choosing to hear the bad one first? I will go with the opposite one” Robert replied, his eyes still locked on the moving vehicles as they zoomed past, some were barely a blur, they were probably driving in their utmost speed to catch up with something or to meet their deadline. His mind diverted to his life when he was still living with the Williams, anger flashed in his eyes for a brief second as he remembered the suffering he went through.

    Robert sat on his swivel chair turning it around to face the door and tapping on the arm of the chair with his fingers. He pulled his chair closer to his huge office table that was barely filled with documents that he needs to go through. He pulled open one and then he stopped as his eyes caught another one that needed his immediate signing. It was the building of another warehouse. He rubbed his temple slowly, he lost a huge deal of money that Friday night, no matter how he tried to act like he wasn’t pained by it, it was all just a lie and he was beginning to fail miserably at that job. “Fuck!” he yelled and slammed his hands on the table angrily scattering some of the things on the table, his face had squeezed slightly, and his brows had drawn closer to each other. “Fuck you Antonio!” he cussed silently, his tone was laced with anger. There was a knock on the door, “Come in” he said and raised his head to see who was coming in. “Sir you have a visitor, he said he is here on

    "Who the fuck are you?" Antonio asked again, the fear that he felt some minutes ago had disappear. Standing up to his feet slowly. There is no way you can be a fucking human!. Antonio thought, his brows furrowed. He no longer felt the presence of the monster again, it was like he was standing in a room where the Robert he really knew was having a remorse over what he had just done. Antonio was sure that if he was the one, if the position was reversed, he wouldn't have hesitated or thought twice before snapping his neck. Robert turned his head slowly to look at him from his side eye. "Know your place dog!" Robert barked out at him, his eyes were still reddened with anger.The look from him was still terrifying like it was some minutes ago. Antonio tried all he could not to cower in fear, he masked the fear he was feeling perfectly. "What is your reason for coming here?" Robert asked in a calm and reserved voice. It was like there a lump appeared in Antonio's throat suddenly, he

Robert stood in front of the ceiling to roof glass in his office, staring at the view with his hands buried deep into his pockets, his mind slowly drifts back to the past few years, that very incident, just after he had saved Hazel. "Where are we?" she finally asked the question that had been on her mind for a long while, since she woke up. "Oh! We are at that castle we once came to through one portal, you remember, right?" "Yes" she nodded her head."Anyways, how are you?"

    “Well, you are a very dumb guy, you think I can’t use that same, exact powers you just used to destroy Liam” Robert said with a cold smile and look. “I knew that, I took that into consideration and took steps ahead of time, which was poisoning you, au revoir Robert” he said with a dark chuckle. “What—“ Robert coughed out and he covered his mouth, he felt a liquid on his hand, he raised it up to his face and he saw the red liquid on his palm, “fu—fuck” he muttered and fell face flat to the ground. Lucian let out a loud laughter that was filled with so much joy as he made his way to the clan’s head castle and sat on the clan’s head seat while Wayde followed behind him closely and stood beside him as he sat on the chair. His heart danced with joy as his hands ran through the clan’s head chair. “Fuck! It’s all my goddamned fault” Robert sobbed silently with a deep pain in his heart, his body was slowly feeling numb all over, he was losing consciousness, in a matter of a few seconds,

    Robert charged towards him and grabbed him by his collar, he raised him up and was about to slam his back on the ground but Damien grabbed his arm and broke free of his grasp and landed on the floor with a slight cough. Robert doesn't look like he was going to stop any moment from now with his continuous attacks, he kept on throwing several punches on Damien which were all becoming successful hits. Surprisingly still, Damien didn't retaliate, he only tried to step up his defense and increase his speed to match with Robert's current one but his body can't keep up again like in the beginning when he had blocked and evaded almost all his attacks successfully due to the impact of the successful attacks. He struggles to stand up from the floor with a groan, he wiped his nose with the back of his nose and stretched his hand forward, “See, I am your mother’s subo—“ Before he could finish his statement or stand properly, Robert charged at him again and gave him a kick from under his bod

Robert kissed her on her forehead, “Keep her somewhere safe that you know she won’t be attacked and put a very powerful barrier that will prevent anyone from entering there, around the place” he said and walked out.

    Robert stepped into the portal and sat on the couch with a tired sigh. He stood up back and went into his wine cellar, he picked out a new wine and pick out a glass cup on his way to the sitting room. He sat on the couch and poured the wine into the glass cup. He picked up the wine glass, looking at the red liquid, it was like he was about to puke because of the resemblance of the red liquid content from the bottle to the blood of a human. He dropped the wine on the table in front of him and sat back on the chair, he pulled out the phone from his pocket and dialed a number, placing it in his ear, the sound of the line ringing was the only sound that could be heard in the sitting room. The phone was picked and Alice's voice came in. "Hello sir' she said with a bit of excitement in her voice. "Liam said you went on a vacation, that is the major reason why you couldn't be reached during the past few days, is it true sir? I don't quite believe that man" she said with a slight chuckle.

    Liam sat on a swivel chair in the board meeting room with his back turned towards the entrance, his face could not be seen from any angle, apart from the front, it was only his back that could be seen. He heard when the door was being pushed open and when it was locked, the person that brought in Dennis was dismissed with his hand. “Have your seat” he said without looking back. He turned the swivel chair around and faced Dennis with a grin on his face. “Here is your anonymous caller” he said, stretching his hands apart with a smirk on his face. The surprised look on Dennis face just made the smile to widen the more. “Wait, is this a joke, you are telling me that I lost to you” he said, pointing his fingers to Liam with a shocked look on his face that didn’t seem like it was going to be wiped off any moment from now at all. “Well, I am sure that you didn’t expect to lose to someone like me, I am one of his secret trump card who just seem to have a thinking of my own and can make

    "If you want to continue this game of yours, then I am ready" Dennis said with a devilish smile on his face, his finger was hooked in the hole of a knife, which he twirls playfully around his fingers. A switch was on his other hand and a mask was on his face. He sat on a desk in an empty room staring at Carlton who was sitting on a chair with his hands tied behind it. "Ain't playing games man, I already told you times without number" Carlton answered shakily. "If you don't admit your crime, then I will have no other choice than to press this switch in my hand and you know what happens when I do" Dennis raised the switch up in the air to show him clearly, he waved it at him. "Don't involve my family in this shitty game of yours, you bastard!" Carlton yelled at him furiously, jerking the chair and trying to break free off it, not minding the pain that he was feeling as he dragged his hand apart but it was all to no avail. "I can also sit here and watch your futile effort to bre

    Robert walked towards Lucian and Wayde all covered in blood, from the crown of his head to the sole of his feet, even his shirt glued to his shirt and the sight looked quite scary to look at, the aura radiating around him was scary and overwhelming also. The look on his face was cold and void of emotions, his eyes was dark, he looked like the complete monster himself while walking towards Lucian, and his aura had changed completely. “Fuck!” Lucian muttered underneath his breath as he stared around, from the wall that was covered with blood and guts spilled on it, bodies with incomplete limbs, to the ground that was bathed in blood also. It was such a scary and disgusting sight to behold, the heavy stench of blood filled the whole passageway. He raised his finger and pointed at Lucian, who looked a bit shaken immediately he saw the hand being raised towards him, "make preparations, we are attacking them in a few days, I am not holding back again, the more I stay, the more I get atta

    Robert made a stance against Lucian and Wayde, who also made a stance, Robert charged in against the both of them with insane speed, Wayde and Lucian weren’t matching his speed but they made up for that in their numbers which gave them a slight advantage against him to cover up what they lack compared to him. Upon the advantage they have against Robert, he still didn’t seem to be fazed by it, he faced the challenge head on. He stopped abruptly in his steps as Wayde and Lucian evaded him in the nick of time immediately they saw him approaching them. “Come on, you all really need to stop running and fight me heads on are you both scared?” he said while taking slow steps towards Lucian, Wayde saw the opportunity that Robert was finally open and he dashed forward. “Gotcha” Robert muttered under his breath and with perfect timing he turned back and grabbed Wayde who was running with full speed by the neck and he slammed him on the floor, not taking his eyes off Lucian completely and wa
