Alex immediately turned around to leave, his eyes turning into a scary red and black color. “Mac, prepare something warm for them, I'm going to pick them up. Raz, continue watching the control room, don't let the enemy take advantage of this. Aridan, follow in another car and bring dry towels along. Ikaris, I want to know why the landlord suddenly threw them out. I wish to know everything that happened with Eleanor today, and throughout the past week, hurry” Alex growled, clenching and unclenching his fists.He exhaled heavily and quickly turned to leave, noticing someone holding his hands.“Dad, I'm coming with you. I will help to bring them back,” Luz said, barely hiding the anger in his voice.“No, dear, it's raining. Stay home and wait for them,” Alex said, disappearing into the night.******“This is not right. This is against the law! I paid my rent in full, I still have eight months worth of rent with you. Besides, you didn't give me any notice, you just kicked my children and
Alex walked into the Lamborghini, where Aridan and Emrys were trying to dry up the twin's body.“I'm so sorry,” he whispered, rubbing their frozen arms.“Daddy,” Ariella muttered, tears running down her cheeks as she cried.“Dad is so sorry for letting you both suffer. I have failed you,” he muttered, wrapping the both of them in an oversized bathrobe.“When you're done here, pack up their things and drive madam home. I will be going with the kids first, they need to be treated as soon as possible to avoid complications, especially Ariel,” Alex whispered, scooping the both of them into his arms.He quickly turned into a dark corner, trying to teleport with them.“Hey! Why are you taking them back to the rain?” Eleanor screamed, trying to leave the rolls-Royce where Tajana was attempting to wrap her up with the huge, white, fluffy towels they brought along.“Calm down madam. He's taking them home. He will be faster if he goes alone,” Aridan muttered, glaring at her.“Faster than a car?
Luz smiled wryly and looked up at her.“My mother is dead, If that makes you feel better,’’ Luz whispered with a sad smile, before turning around to leave.His slow steps along the spiral staircase left a forlorn air around him, his sadness permeating the environment because of his cold aura that was seeping out.Ariel immediately turned, facing Ariella in anger.“Have you seen what you have done? He's probably going up to cry! What's wrong with you? You are always being dramatic and jealous for no reason. Are you happy now that you have made him sad? He merely wanted to be friends, not you have probably ruined every chance of that ever happening,” Ariel said, staring down at his sister.Ariella immediately pouted, looking at the floor.“I didn't know his mother was dead. Otherwise, I would never have asked. It wasn't my plan to make him sad, I was just unhappy at seeing another brother pop out without warning, and he has obviously been living here ever since we left. I wasn't being i
“Why are you having such thoughts? You're breaking Dad's heart,” Alex whispered, transmitting his voice into Luz's mind.Luz immediately looked around, trying to detect which direction the voice came from.However, no matter how hard he searched, he didn't find any strange presence in the room.“What is that? Or is my mind playing tricks on me? Oh, no! I'm just seven, I'm too young to run mad,” he whispered fearfully, covering his head with a pillow.“Idiot, I'm the one talking to you, your father. Luz, how can you have such thoughts that hurt me so? You are my first son, my blood, who I love more than my own life. I will never love you any less, no matter what happens. Of all my children, I trust you the most, I believe in you and your abilities the most, I trust in your talent and ingenuity the most. How can I not love you when you fill my heart with so much peace and joy? How can I not love you when I never count my blessings without adding you first? How can I not love you when yo
“Because if you allow a boy touch you without your clothes, you get pregnant!” Ariella shouted, making Alex's brows to furrow.“Who told you that lie? When did mere touch result to pregnancy?” Alex asked, staring at her.“Mom did. You can't allow a man to touch you. Otherwise you will get pregnant. It's improper for boys and girls to sleep together. If any guy tries to remove your clothes or put their hands under your clothes, scream for help, he's a criminal. It's improper for a boy to see you without your clothes, you will get pregnant. You cannot allow a man to bathe you, you will be in trouble. You must not allow any boy to see you without your clothes. And most importantly, you must not allow anyone to touch your body intimately,” Ariella recited the words of her mother, making Alex nod in agreement.“Wow. Are you even old enough to get pregnant? Your mom is right though, but I'm not any boy or man, I'm your father. I will never do anything improper to you, or have any improper t
Ariella looked up at Alex, her eyes shining with tears.“Dad, it's not what you think,” she pleaded, trying her best to hold back the rains from falling in heavy torrents.“Don't touch it, you will get hurt,” he whispered, making Ariella more confused.Alex quickly carried her up, caressing her back.“Why are you picking them up? What if you hurt your fingers? You didn't really think dad would crush your skull because of the pot, did you?” He whispered, wiping the hint of tears at the corner of her eyes.“However, you can't escape punishment. You broke a very expensive antique out of anger. I will slash your monthly allowance in two, taking the other half till it's enough to pay for the damages. If I give your brothers five hundred thousand dollars, it means I will give you two hundred and fifty thousand, till you complete the payment for the vase. I think that's a better option than taking it out of your trust fund, don't you agree?” Alex whispered, setting her down beside the tub.A
Alex immediately blinked and turned to her with a smile on his face.“Of course not, men don't cry,” he whispered, sparing a moment to look at her.“You're lying, what's this?” Ariella said, touching Alex's lashes to show him the very tiny hint of tears in them.“There were tears in your eyes when I saw you, you were barely holding them back. Did something happen to you? Are you hurt?” Ariella asked, carefully examining Alex's body for wounds.“Sweetheart, I was not crying. However, my heart is in severe pain because of what you and your brother had to go through. His body is filled with wounds, both from the bullies and from those criminals who attacked you and your mom. Even if I punish the criminals, will I also hurt the kids? I feel so useless and helpless, it's tormenting me. I have failed in my duty as a father, I have failed you both. I swore not to let any of you get hurt under my watch, but it happened again. Even Luz was not spared, he was in a bad condition when I found him
Alex shut his eyes in pain as he caressed Ariel’s neck, his heart aching for the pain his boy was going through.“Dad, it's hurting him,” Ariella shouted, removing Alex's hands.“I know, but that's the only way I can transfer my powers to him and make him stronger. His wounds will also heal. Baby boy, you have to endure the pain, okay? You are daddy's son, you were born powerful.” Alex said in a firm voice, before placing his hands back on the huge gash on his back.Soon the wounds on Ariel's back totally closed up, and a light nylon film formed on the surface, showing it had healed.Alex used his free arm to pick up herbs and elixirs, using it to massage Ariel's back.After two minutes, he turned him around, placing his bleeding palm on the wound on his chest, guiding his energy to Ariel's heart.“Mmm,” Ariel groaned in pain, grabbing fistfuls of the bedsheets.“Ariel is hurting, but the wounds on his back are gone,” Ariella whispered, wiping her tears as she watched her beloved brot
