Chapter 163Faye walked in on the strange man rummaging for God knows what in her grandfather’s drawer. “Who are you and what are you looking for?” She asked, announcing her presence with her gaze sizing the man up trying to read his appearance. The man looked up from where he was, becoming aware of Faye’s presence as he brought up his hand that held a gun in it. Corking the object he pointed it straight at her head. “Hands up bitch!” He instructed, his finger tugging close to the trigger. Faye exclaimed with her expression as her lips parted in shock. Molten saliva liquid gulped down her throat as she slowly obliged to the man’s instruction. “You’re not gonna scream and you’re gonna come in further.” He beckoned with the gun, Faye had no choice than to step in further approaching him where he stood. “What is your name beautiful? Perhaps you can lead me to who I’m suppose to kill. I’m here for Charlotte Hales, and Oscar Hales.” Faye kept her ears attentive, arriving at the fron

Chapter 164Lorraine stood up from the position she was squatted to. Avon already went after Charlotte like he said. He could hear Kory’s voice shouting meters away and Charlotte trying to shut her up. “You’re not getting away with this, whatever it is that you just did to me. Give me back my body you piece of a useless shit!” She heard Kory’s voice yelling at Charlotte. “Fine bitch.” Charlotte said and that was the end of their shouting. Avon hastened his footsteps rushing to the direction he heard then shouting from only to see they were gone. Still looking around for them his eyes landed on Finn who creeped out from nowhere standing behind him. Avon almost jerked, “Finn.” He called a little weird out by his sudden appearance. “Where were you? How did you? It doesn’t matter, when you did you come back?” Avon took some steps backwards before inquiring. Finn smirked, a dark edgy one that has Avon squinting his gaze at him. “I came in not too long, I was looking for you.” He r
Chapter 165 Avon returned to looking for Charlotte and Kory, hurrying with the search after assuming Charlotte succeeded in throwing Kory out of the house since the shouting died down. He felt a different aura around Finn, but could not afford looking into it as he’s busy with stopping Charlotte. He strolled down the stairs, arriving at the mansion’s frontal exit to see nothing but two of his guards standing there on random lookout. Kory and Charlotte were nowhere to be found. Avon moved closer to the guards, minding to question about Kory. “Have any of you seen Kory or Charlotte?” His voice questioned, immediately gaining their attention. Their head fell low in an instant, “No, General. We took post not too long, we have no idea where they could be.” The one of the left lipped a response. Avon sighed turning around and returning back upstairs. His gut kicked in, telling him something strange is going on. He wasn’t certain, but something just doesn’t feel right. While ascendin
Chapter 167 Kory stared with confliction, now that he knows who she is. Was he going to rat her out or is there an agenda to why he kept quiet and gave her a subtle look of knowledge. She approached him with slow cautious steps, “Who are you?” Her head tilted slightly, her eyes squinting obliquely at him. “I’m not the Finn you know, I’m the total opposite.” He responded, bored and typically plained. “Then who are-““It doesn’t matter. What matters is joining hands to achieve our aims. Yours is retrieve the divinity surrounding Avon, while I came to claim his soul. That we should works towards and should matter.” He had cut her off, summing up the base of their plans. “You were going to frame Lorraine for the murder of your body right. I definitely can help with that, I will be the witness and use my abilities to manipulate things into supporting this plan. This would create a rift between them, a dispute you would take advantage of him and approach him to meddle with the conflict
Prologue Avon took frantic steps out of the house, in horror of what just unfolded in his eyes. Back at where he ran from, were harmed men with matching outfits of black clearing out his family. He would have been killed, but he managed to escape after having taken notice of just one thing: the small skull tattoo drawn on the neck of those men. He made sure that was asserted deep in his memory as he scurried away, running with all of his might. He took numerous glances at the back and hoped those men weren’t following him. Heavy breaths and sighs slipped out his mouth as he finally took a stop to rest after getting to a dark corner. His thin body rested on the wall while gigantic balls of sweat rolled down his face. He peeked back for about two times before slowly sitting down and rethinking everything that just happened. Just this morning, Avon woke up happily with his family, everyone not expecting a situation like this to unfold close to the end of the day. Dinner was in prep
Chapter 2 Lorraine despite being a very good girl, has always being shamed, stoned and cast aside since she was birth. It all started since when she was little and her grandfather asked her what she would like to become when she’s grown up, and her response of ‘I just want a normal life with someone I love…’ she blabbed to him the fairytale life she wanted.

Chapter three Lorraine has never felt this peaceful and cared for since her little self gave a sincere response to her grandfather. No one has cared for her, none loved her, worse showed her some affection since then.She was deserted, maltreated, made her feel like an abomination, as if she was cursed, a disgrace and a shame to their family and their name. But then he entered into her life, filling all those empty holes at the small space of three days. She had never felt this cared for, no one has ever took care of her this way. He’s a blessing bestowed upon her. Her happiness for meeting him knew no bound. In the blink of an eye, three days had gone by. And those three days were the happiest three days Lorraine had ever experienced in her past nineteen years of her life, she replied her grandfather when she was seven years old where it all started.
