Calaestina was now torn between maintaining her sanity and exacting revenge after hearing about the wrongdoings committed by Eris. She was as fiery as a flame of fire and as terrifying as the darkest stray of a night spent in the desert alone.Despite everything that she had done for Eris, she had committed not just one but an excessive number of betrayals against her over the years. Calaestina could hardly fathom how in the world Eris could even have the nerve to actually carry out such a heinous act, let alone have the guts to do it. The fact that Eris went to such lengths as to actually plot the murder of Calaestina's son was the one thing that Calaestina hated more than any of the other wrongdoings that Eris had committed. How could she have been so heartless as to do something like that to a child who could not possibly have had even the remotest intention of fighting back against his mother?Calaestina's son was a good boy, and even when he was an adult, he never once attempted
Calaestina could only think about wanting to take the justice into her hands by her desire to kill Eris without hesitation. She wanted to avenge the death of her poor son, and all of the betrayals that Eris had done to her, however, much to her dismay, she could not even wield her sword to make the final blow.For the next moment, Calaestina charged forward and Eris anticipated her next attack. Eris pulled out her golden holy spear that she uses for her defense. Although everyone knew of Eris’ possession of the spear, there was not even a single time that anyone had seen or witness her ever using it on a combat.This would be the very first time that everyone would witness the golden spear be used by the goddess, and to make things worst, it would be used against another formidable deity, and it was Calaestina.Everyone was completely in shock by the occurrence that was taking place in the throne hall. Even the creator could not render to mediate to interfere whatever they were planni
Eris’ spear was temporarily angled behind her back when she made her assault towards Calaestina. She was also determined to directly pierce her spear through Calaestina’s chest at all costs.The way her hands firmly gripped the spear's long end was tight enough to correspond to the determination that Eris had to eliminate Calaestina from the picture. She reasoned that it was all because of her, which was why she was suffering. And the only remedy to end all of these ill gotten feeling that she had towards her was if she would see her die from her own hands.Eris showed no remorse until she manage to swiftly plunge her spear directly into Calaestina’s chest. A sound of flesh that was being skewered forcibly echoed loudly into the throne hall. Its sound abruptly caused the whole crowd to become silent.Their silence were mixed up with both shock and dismay. They were all shocked to find that Eris was able to easily defeat Calaestina that quickly as if they hadn’t known that Calaestina w
Blood splattered everywhere, like how rain leaves its traces. However, unlike the rain, the splashes of blood everywhere were thicker and it smelled rotten of Eris’ crimes. And yet, what seemed even more surprising was the fact that the other deities around shifted their sympathy over Eris instead.It was just a while ago that Eris was the one being loathed by the rest of the other deities. However, things have changed so suddenly right now that all of their eyes were fuming with hatred upon looking at Calaestina’s direction.Although they all are aware of what Eris had done, it wasn’t still enough to allow Calaestina to just take her life in such a brutal manner. They all stood witness to how Calaestina released Eris’ head on the ground.It rolled a few distance from her and it was truly a horrifying scene to witness as it also scattered blood all over the place. However, Calaestina was not the least bit worried about whatever might others be thinking as of the moment. She needed n
Dark corners that were only being illuminated by a single torch became the next scenery that Calaestina had to witness after what she had done to Eris. The earlier cries for Eris’ justice was now replaced with the sound of metal chains that were clinged into her wrist and ankles.Calaestina had been turned into a prisoner caged somewhere far from her known. She wasn’t familiar if this was even the place for prisoners. She couldn’t even hear any sound other than the one she was making.It was completely lonely inside, and terrifying because of the darkness that was battling against the small light created by the torch hanging a few distance from her prison cell.The smell of rotten dead rats were also making the atmosphere even more to Calaestina’s discomfort. And yet, this wasn’t what was she was concern about. She was worried that now she was detained inside this prinson cell, there was no way she could protect her son’s body against those who wanted to avenge what she did on Eris.F
"It's rather disappointing that after I tried to save your life, this is how you will address me, a monster?," the creator said. It just so happened that the person responsible for betraying Calaestina paid a visit to her while she was incarcerated. Calaestina was unable to determine whether or not it had already been a day since she had been detained inside there; all she knew was that she had been staying there for a considerable amount of time at this point.For Calaestina, it was a period of time that simultaneously felt like an age and an eternity. The deafening silence and horrifying atmosphere that she was surrounded by made it so that she felt as though the desire for freedom was a thirst that she needed to quench more than anything else in the world. "There was nothing more appropriate to call you at this time than a monster," Calaestina said. Even so, Calaestina did not back down from her earlier declaration that the creator was a monstrosity.The creator thought that he c
Calaestina was abruptly confused. She didn’t have the slightest idea what the creator meant by saying those words. She was suddenly in the notion that the creator might just be up to no good once again which was why he was making another attempt to deceive her once more.However, Calaestina was resolute this time. She wouldn’t even dare believing any of the words that the creator would say to her. She already had enough of what he had done previously to her that if he attempt to wrong her once more, she may no longer have the slightest mercy to spare his life. Even if it meant killing the supreme deity, she would if that would only mean justice for all the wrongdoings he had inflicted on her. Every bit of what the creator had done to Calaestina just made her wanting for revenge. Calaestina had grown completely distant from the creator unlike before.At this point, all that Calaestina could think of was to find a way to release herself from the chains that binds her against the wall a
“Yes! Yes I lied to you! However, didn’t it ever occur to you that there might be another reason why I had to do that apart from what you believe to be just my betrayal?” the creator eventually said back.This was the very first time that the creator ever raised his voice that much out of desperation to speak with Calaestina. At this point, she was as hard as stone to even reach through. The creator had been trying his very best, but it would seem that Calaestina was already settled into not believing any of his words.“I already told you, you had your chance to tell me the truth before and yet, you still prefer to lie before my face as if I would never find out about it sooner or later.”All of a sudden, the creator heaved a sigh before he replied, “I knew that you’d find out about it sooner or later.”“Then why still lie to me? You know I trusted you not just my life, but also my son’s. Why did you choose to betray me even after all that I have done for you and the high garden? What
I stopped waiting for them to respond because I already knew that whatever they said would only be an attempt to convince us to remain where we were. This is also something that I am partly to blame for, I know. If I hadn't been so irresponsible as to move around on my own right from the start, they wouldn't have been forced to consider hiring additional security personnel in order to ensure that I remained safe.Recent events have brought to my attention the fact that Julius Silverstone's last will and testament has already been carried out after he passed away as a result of the car accident. Klen and Taylor were both named as my new guardian in my late grandfather's will, which stated that they would serve in that capacity until I reached the age of twenty-one. At this point in time, it would appear that Claudette is still in her twenties. This came as quite a surprise to me because I had assumed that she was already in her thirties. I was wrong about her age because she seems muc
Every time they insist on having those guards, it gets on my nerves. It's almost as if they are announcing to the world that I am being held captive in this mansion. But on some level, I am fully aware of the reason why they were so eager to coerce me into having those security guards follow me around at all times. As far as I can tell, it's for my own good. But didn’t they know that I will be with Reagan today? Knowing that Reagan is on the line might help them relax a bit, but even if that were the case, their concerns for my safety remain unfounded."I will be with Reagan, and I'm sure that he won't let anything bad happen to me while I'm with him. To put your minds at ease, the two of you can be certain that I will return whole to this mansion. Alright?” I told them as I dragged Reagan outside with me before the other two could have even had another opportunity to try to stop us from leaving.I stopped waiting for them to respond because I already knew that whatever they said wou
As soon as my focus was brought back to him, I instantly recognized the look of bewilderment on his face, which was evidenced by the way his brows were drawn together almost exactly in the middle of his temple. Even with that expression, Reagan managed to maintain an attractive appearance.I'll bet that this guy has a lot of ladies swooning over him right now. If it weren't for the fact that men aren't high on my list of priorities, I might actually give some thought to developing feelings for someone like Reagan. However, if we were to meet at a different time and place, one in which I wouldn't have to be concerned about exacting my vengeance or fearing for my life, then I probably wouldn't give it much thought at all.Who wouldn't fall for Reagan, seeing as how he has devoted his entire life to ensuring the well-being of my clan, and more specifically of my family?

Who wouldn't fall for Reagan, seeing as how he has devoted his entire life to ensuring the well-being of my clan, and more specifically of my family? I am aware that I am temporarily inhabiting Claudette's body, and that Claudette's family is not mine; despite this, there are times when I can't help but feel as though he is treating me in this manner rather than the actual Claudette, who was the one who originally owned this body. “Claudette? Are you still with me?” When I turned around, I heard Reagan calling my name once more. I don't exactly remember how many times he did it, but it seems as though he had been calling me out for a good deal of time by this point.“I-I’m sorry, I was just thinking about something.” I reason out. Despite this, I had a sneaking suspicion that Reagan wasn't going to buy that reason from me.When I look at the expression on his face, it seems as if he is trying to determine what it was that had me startled for a considerable amount of time, and why, d
“Sure. But why are we even going there?” he asks.“I’ll tell you on the way there.”However, just as Reagan and I were about to leave, Klen and Taylor immediately followed close behind me in an attempt to prevent me from leaving. After that, Klen protested as quickly as possible, saying, "Miss Claudette, let us come with you.""Oh, dear, please don't leave without us." Taylor even added.“I appreciate the concern, but I believe I left the two of you with instructions to finish within the day. I will be expecting reports from those instructions when I get home later.”“But, Miss Claudette, are you seriously going out without any guards with you?” Klen made another protest.Every time they insist on having those guards, it gets on my nerves. It's almost as if they are announcing to the world that I am being held captive in this mansion. But on some level, I am fully aware of the reason why they were so eager to coerce me into having those security guards follow me around at all times.
At this point in time, it would appear that Claudette is still in her twenties. This came as quite a surprise to me because I had assumed that she was already in her thirties. I was wrong about her age because she seems much older. On the other hand, now that I think about it, if she had been alive in five years from now, she would have been almost the same age as me. Suddenly, I can't help but recall the lewd encounter I had in the store. Knowing she is only twenty years old makes me feel even worse about allowing that creep to harass Claudette’s young body. “Claudette?” The sudden sound of Reagan's voice calling out my name brings me back to the present moment and helps me regain my composure.As soon as my focus was brought back to him, I instantly recognized the look of bewilderment on his face, which was evidenced by the way his brows were drawn together almost exactly in the middle of his temple.
