Chapter 107 Lorraine felt still and exhausted, slowly her consciousness was back in full. The will for her lashes to flap her vision awake was stiff and all she could see was blinding darkness coming from a restraint veiling over her eyes. She could feel her butt seated on a hard surface with her hands tied behind her. A claustrophobic feeling dawned on her as she tried to scream, but her voice was cloaked from the tape shutting her mouth. Lorraine fell into realization, it dawned heavily on her that she has been kidnapped and she has no idea who. There was nobody she offended or fought with. She struggled against the restraints on her wrists fighting for freedom. The darkness her eyes settled in was not only agitating but triggering. Her mind wandered back to what her brain retailed of her last moment before this happened to her. She remembered walking along the passage with Avon going to the kitchen to get water for her grandfather. Then they showed up all of a sudden and be
Chapter 108Oscar ran through the floor, jogging over the stairs in a flashy pace, sifting his body in avoidance of bumping into nurses or anybody in sight. He ran through the passage, incessantly glancing up at the heading of the rooms he ran by; the ward rooms to be precise, to know when he has gotten to his destination. Suddenly his motion paused, his movement stopped with his head looking away from the heading of a ran and back to facing his front. Same happened to everything else beside him and around him, all movements stopped and some minutes later he was back to running, not knowing what happened to his movement and that he was a statue seconds ago. He finally got to the room, pushing the door open as he ran in uninvited, looking to meet a familiar stranger beside his daughter seated on a chair just beside her. “Faye! Faye! Faye!” Oscar chanted in pure nervousness running straight to her on the bed. Not showing acknowledgment to the present human inside the room. Tears bl
Chapter 109The book floated still right above the mere air, a white shimmering light edging round the edges and from inside the flipping pages. It was flipped constantly to a point, then the old woman dressed in a white regalia that matches her whitish appearance of hair, skin and the rest. Finn stood at a corner with his back leaned on a wall and face keener on the woman’s action, he stared at her watching her every moves of magic that only kept his mind awed and more stunned.Avon was lifeless body was laid on the mat now shed of all of his clothing and now left in his inner boxers with his whole bare body in display. “Mors! Mors!! Mors!!!” The lady called with a lifted chin and her jaw pursed out, facing up and above letting her arms spread wide to embrace more of the coldness filling the room’s energy. “Mortem Oppeto, Mortem oppeto reducete ad me. …” Finn watched as she chanted the words, that brought about an unusual feeling creeping up his body. He felt the hairs on his bo
Chapter 110Lorraine’s head tilted in denial, the words of the man repeating in her head. If she heard well and correct, he asked why Richard Wilson kidnapped her? And if he is indeed her kidnapper, she need not to worry about what she has done to warrant an abduction or to know who she offended. She remembered to the moment they had at the party. It was heated and she recalled his threatening words, he was pretty deadpanned on taking her and seemed determined. This was his idea, she couldn’t help but shiver at the achievement, but the hidden voice reminded her of who her husband is. Not only does he go by the name Avon, but also the Dragon General. With an honorific of The Most Feared Man in EastHills. The approaching guest entered the room in his graceful accord, a dangerous smirk over his lips as he stood by the entryway looking at the tied female figure on the chair. He licked his bottom lip at her distress, coming in further to where she was and stopping right in front of h
Chapter 111Back at The Hales’ Villa.The sound of the gunshot fired three times not only brought about a commotion in the serene gathering of individuals inside the large hall entertaining the ongoing party. They all trooped outside believing an attack was made only to see the most fearful man in the city on the ground lifeless with blood pumping out of his chest. Many stopped taking out their phones, recording the situation before departing from the house.After the useless reviving attempts Finn grabbed his Master pulling him up and calling for help. Charlotte followed but the hastiness at which Finn zoomed out of the vicinity cannot be followed. She watched as the guard turned around while exchanging puzzled glances of sadness as they match away from her. She tipped to motion, following the guards that approached the limousine. They soon took notice of her, and they asked. “Who are you?” In their hard well trained voice.“I’m Charlotte Hales, Lorraine’s mother. Your General’s
Chapter 112Charlotte settled in a daze, thinking back to the time a maid was hired in the Hales’ Villa. She was young and a stunning woman, her most enchanting asset are her eyes, bright blue able to draw any man’s attention. But then it was her own husband that caught her attention, it was her own husband that she wanted not the other men dying to court her despite she’s a maid in a middle class home.All wanted her except for her loyal husband, he showed no sign of interest towards her asset and that only calmed Charlotte’s tensed nerve. She remembered to confronting the maid and telling her to stop throwing shades and advances towards her husband, she was adamant and continued. To stop all of it, Charlotte beseeched Jason into getting her fired and thus leading to her departure from the house. How then did this happen, how did Kory happened to be the daughter of his late husband. There’s nothing Charlotte can do, both in talk are dead and the only remain is the product of th
Chapter 113Her lashes fluttered before it gain steadiness, her obscured vision strived for balance as it roamed through her surrounding.She felt violated and she has no idea why. Her head weighed with heaviness. She tried to adjust to the heaving headache, but the fatigue spread out her system receded the action. Lorraine settled in her environment, seeing she was in a room, it seemed like a basement. She was on the bed and the only furniture inside the room. The room itself was plainly furnished, there was no luxurious setting and everything seemed simple. On the bed where she had sat up from, the action taking a toll on her tired muscles, her hands were still tied with leather wrist belts, and so was her ankles. The light of the room was dimmed, but illuminated a bit of her vision. She don’t know for how long she has been out, but from how she feels, it would be for some hours. The dawn is definitely closing up. Thinking back to how she got there, she was kidnapped by Richard
Chapter 114As the day grow into brightness, the city of EastHill set into chaos. Men materialized in the green colored uniforms with harmed and loaded guns hanging around there shoulders down to their torso.More and more trucks filled with well fitted armies drove in the city, the trucks lining up straight to the border that led inside the city.Just in the city, they were divided, taking different wings of the city. And soon filling their presence up in everywhere. At a citizen’s domain, they have distributed themselves around, one of the armies on parade knocked on the wooden door awaiting a response with his gun corked. Without undue time lapse the door opened revealing the residential owner, it was a woman and her husband looking weary because they just woke up from sleep.“We’re from the Dragon General, and yesterday’s night his wife was kidnapped. It’s an order for us to search the entire city.” The man only told them before forcing his way into the apartment.Same went on a
