Keith was shocked, he wasn’t expecting Megan to not be the one to answer his call. He’d thought that he was going to be able to blackmail her but all his attempts to get her to do anything kept going downhill.“What the hell do you think you’re doing?” Sienna's voice jolted him out of his thoughts. He’d completely forgotten about the fact that she was around until now.“Do you want everyone to tap your phone signal and find out where you are?” She added.Without saying anything Keith stood from the bed and paced around the hotel room for a while. He knew that going back to Oliver’s house to wait until Megan was back was out of the question.She never walked alone and not only that, she hadn’t left the Tate mansion since the last time he saw her which was probably five days ago.“I thought you said you can’t use your phone because of the people after you.Keith had completely forgotten about the loan shark he was owing and snapping back to his memory, he yanked his phone from the bed a
The shock on Keith’s face was so evident that even Sienna was satisfied that she had such a hold on him. She wasn’t actually going to push the button because Keith also had a hold on her but it was enough to threaten him.“Fine!” Keith finally said after a while of silence and weighing his options, “you can leave, I trust you.” He finished.They both knew better than to believe what each other said but Sienna shrugged as she turned to leave anyway.“Leave some money for me, I’m currently broke right now.” Keith said and with a frustrated sigh, Sienna dumped two hundred dollars on the table.Keith’s face grew into an unsatisfied frown but Sienna didn’t care. There were people at home waiting for her to come back home with what they were going to eat.She left the hotel and took a cab to the market, it was strange how a market could still be busy at night. Knowing that the night isn’t safe, she quickly bought everything that she was going to need before making her way back home.“You’re
“Why isn’t this working?” Lucian asked himself after trying the techniques that Oliver taught him for the umpteenth time.The doctor stared at him, his pity obvious in his eyes but Lucian insisted on not giving up on Oliver because he knows that he’s going to wake up soon.“It’s been two weeks already, Lucian,” the doctor pointed out like he didn’t know that already, “nothing is working and if anything, he’s just in more pain.” He finished.Lucian sighed and without saying any more word, he made his way out of the ward room. His thoughts wandered off and he remembered when he was also on the brink of death.Everyone had given up on him and even the doctors had already pronounced him dead until Oliver came up with something else.If Oliver was the one alive and he was the one in coma, Lucian knew that Oliver would go to the end of the world to make sure that he wakes up and he’s going to do the same thing.Giving up is the last thing he wanted to do. It was the last on his list and Luc
Lucian had no idea what he would do if the woman got lost and someone else found her. He was going to ask the doctor not to say anything about it but now that the woman had wandered off, he didn't know what to do.“Please tell me that you know where she might be.” The doctor said breathlessly. They’ve gone round the hospital in search of her but she isn’t anywhere.Lucian looked around and automatically activated his eyes scan so that he could search for her but there was no glimpse of her and another thing that there was no glimpse of was Oliver’s room.“Why can’t I see Oliver’s room?” He asked the doctor who explained to him that it was because Oliver is a top agent and they couldn’t expose him especially since people were after his life.“I know where she is.” Lucian smiled proudly before hurriedly making his way to Oliver’s wardroom and there she was.She had already pulled out his IV and somehow set him on a different bed that caused Lucian and the doctor to stare at her in surpr
Oliver was shocked, it was as though a bomb had just landed on him because there was no way he would have been out for two weeks when he merely thought that he was sleeping.“What do you mean I’ve been in a coma for two weeks?” He asked again but Lucian only sighed as he had nothing more to say.“What about the mission? I’m sure we completed it and what did the grandmaster say?” Oliver asked as he tried to stand from the bed but he was still too weak so he ended up laying back on the bed.Questions ran through his mind and when he thought about Megan his chest tightened. How was he going to just call her and talk to her?He needed to come up with an explanation but he didn't know what to say or explain to her and even though Lucian had told him that he was unconscious, he still found it somewhat difficult to believe.“You shouldn’t worry yourself too much about all of that,” Lucian’s voice jolted him out of his thoughts and he turned his head to look at his brother.“We succeeded with
The door to Oliver’s room opened and he opened his eyes to see the doctor. Oliver’s eyes brightened because it’s been long since he last saw the doctor.“I’m sorry, Jonathan,” the doctor apologized, his voice was low and his head was hung low as he tried to avoid Oliver’s gaze. He feels like he had disappointed Oliver by not being able to treat him.Oliver smiled and instead of accepting his apology, he asked if that was the way the doctor was going to say hello to an old buddy.“I was expecting a more welcoming ‘welcome back to life’ but what do I get?” Oliver sighed and the doctor couldn’t help but burst out laughing.“A nasty ‘I’m sorry I couldn’t save your life, Jonathan’? C’mon Paul I know you were going to save me if you could, this one is just out of your hands.” Oliver said reassuringly.While Lucian was sent to China, Oliver remained in the academy for a while and through his stay, Paul had always been the one treating him which made both their bonds grow strong.Paul, the do
“What does he mean we got a clone?” Oliver asked Lucian, not wanting to believe that he went through all those troubles with his brother for nothing.“I’m just as surprised as you are,” Lucian responded, he was sure that he packed the real USB drive and carefully stowed it away before giving it to one of the grandmasters.Oliver and Lucian sat in silence, both of them thinking about how they made such a big mistake without knowing about it.Lucian kept thinking back but the more he did, the difficult it got for him to remember anything. He recalled that he woke up in a hospital the next day and the doctor told him that he’d passed out.“I made sure to hand it over to grandmaster Nick.” Lucian growled but Oliver knew that blaming themselves and trying to backtrack won’t really help at the moment, what they should be doing by now is sketch a new plan and they won’t let anyone know about it.Oliver’s mind drifted home and he didn’t realize how much he missed Megan until now. He asked Luc
“You fucking son of a bi—“ Lucian didn’t get to finish his sentence because Oliver pressed his palm on his mouth to stop him from saying anything else.Lucian struggled to get away from Oliver’s hold but he couldn’t. He didn’t want to just stand back and listen to someone threaten his brother.“It will take a lot more than Dark Kiss to kill me,” Oliver smiled confidently, “you can daydream about killing me as much as you like and I will even advise you not to miss the opportunity when you get it because if you do…” Oliver’s voice trailed off as finally moved his hand from Lucian’s mouth.“I won’t think twice before I finish you off myself.” Oliver finished before hanging up the call and as they made their way out of the hospital room the doctor also came to them.He was panting really hard and it looked like he knew something. He was scared and the last thing he wanted right now was to let Oliver leave the hospital room.The doctor was sure that something bad was bound to happen to hi
