Klein came to a halt in front of an office apartment; this was the media that Jason owned; it was a large building, but even while Adrian was staring at it from the car, he could not tell why he was there.“Klein! I told you to take me to his home; the address that Fred sent is his home address; why in the world are we here?”“This is his home address, from what I see here, looks like he lives at the upper building of the office”“Sure, you stay right here while I go inside!” Adrian instructed but it did not look like Klein was going to obey that instruction. He also alighted from the car and Adrian was staring at him perplexed.“What are you doing Klein, I thought that I just instructed you to wait for me at the car”“There is no way that I am letting you go up there all alone, I understand that you are strong and have powers that can protect you, but once in a while, I think that we all need someone to have our back”“But….”“I am sorry Boss, but there is nothing that you are going
Daniel could tell that his son was getting worked up and finally wanted to end the conversation. He had barely seen Adrian angry in the few times that he had known him.“That is enough, son; go back home, and we can discuss this later tonight!”“Yeah, I heard you the first time!” Adrian responded in a manner that Daniel had never heard his son speak before Adrian rose to his feet and stormed out of there, slamming the door behind him.Adrian thought that it was going to go easier on him later tonight when the entire family was home, but he was halfway asleep when he was informed by one of the household staff that his presence was wanted downstairs.When Adrian strode through the stairs, there was Uncle Theo, Uncle Sean, Grandpa Hallow, and his father, but there was also someone who wasn't part of the family, and that was the detective from earlier.“Dad, what is he doing here?” Adrian asked, his eyes trailing at everyone, but before his Dad even got the opportunity to speak, the detec
Kelvin’s eyes had turned bright red, he was fuming in rage trying to control the blood lust that was waving inside of him, but all of his attempts seemed to be in vain, and worst of it, the prisoner in the other cell seemed to be injured and kelvin can't get over the smell of the blood.He had his head facing the wall while trying to breathe through his nose and hoping that it finally stopped, but a cop walked over to his cell.“You have a visitor!” he announced and began to open the door to the cell. Kelvin wanted to be excited but knew that he couldn't at a time like this because his eyes, fangs, and claws were all showing out; the beast inside of him was losing it.“Didn't you just hear me say you have a visitor?” the cop asks while standing next to Kelvin. Kelvin had this urge to jump on him and suck him off every trace of blood inside of him, but he knew that if he did something like this, then everything that he had worked for and even the reason he wanted these powers would all
After Adrian had left yesterday, the entire family was moody, and most of them did not have the will to go to work. Freya was trying so hard to recover from the heartbreak that she got from Jason, and now, she was going to have to deal with not seeing him for a while.Grandpa, seeing the foul mood that everyone was in, forced them to come downstairs for breakfast, and rather than the usual breakfast of oatmeal or scrabble egg, it was a feast of lamb and several varieties of seafood.“Grandpa! What is the occasion?” Claire asked while standing next to her sister Sarah and Freya.“Do I need an occasion before I can have a good meal with my family?”“You won't blame us; it is not every time that we get to enjoy such luxury or Grandpa, have you suddenly forgotten that you are an advocate for no wasting of money on expensive meals,” Sarah teased before she took the space next to him.The rest of the family hurriedly joined the table except for Amelia, who was busy in the kitchen, and despi
Adrian stood at the gate of Wesley Corporation, and even while he did, he could not stop glancing through the side mirror cautiously when he finally noticed Freya walking over to him.“Freya!” he alighted from the car, hurried over to her even before she would get out of the car and embrace her.“Adrian, I miss you and everyone at home also does”“Come on, I have only been gone for a night, there is no way that you all already miss me that much”“Are you going to tease me now?” she pouted her lips like a child that he was forced to laugh before leading her to the car.“Get in. I have lots of enemies lately, and I have been trying to be cautious,” he ordered before they were both inside the car; he squeezed her arm gently and then asked.“How are you doing Freya?” There was concern in his eyes, knowing that his sister was yet to get over Jason.“What do you expect Adrian, so much has been going off in our family and I think that those evil energy you warded off are all back and you nee
Mr. Maxton sat at his favorite luxurious leather sofa with a glass of champagne around the tip of his fingers. Jason was seated at the other of the living room, although a glass of champagne had also been served to him, but he did not touch neither did he seem interested in it.“Sir, you ask to see me, what is this about?”“I feel like you are the closest to my son and if there is anyone that would have an idea regarding what is happening right now, that will be you”“Did something happen Sir?”“Seth has been gone for a while and has refused to come back home, he claimed that he had gone for a business meeting outside the country, but I checked with his assistance and there weren't any meetings that he had to attend”“Are you sure about this?”.“Yes! His assistant also claimed that he had a lot of meetings packed up he hadn't attended, refused to pick up his call, and worst of it, did not inform her before leaving”“That is strange, was there an argument between the both of you before
Avery had just ended a call with Freya and was consumed with rage; she stormed down the stairs, her feet making a loud thumping stairs.Mr. Woods, who was on a call with a business associate, immediately ended the call as soon as he noticed the foul mood his daughter was in.“What is it this time Avery?”“Don't look at me with that fatherly gaze and pretend like you do not know what you have done!”“How about you have a glass of water, calm down, and tell me what is so bad that I have to deserve my daughter giving me that scary look the first thing in the morning”“I don't need a glass of water, neither do I need to calm down, why did you go behind my back and withdraw the case against Kelvin Wesley?”“Oh! All this fuss is about that, I was going to inform you about it but I had other things going on, you shouldn't be this way, of all people should know that when you file a case against Kelvin, you file it against the entire Wesley family and considering that you are trying so hard fo
Jason sat in the darkness of his room, his eyes shut as he tried to connect with his powers; he could feel the powers drawing in on him, the wind in his room grew strong, and the voice of the dead that had been attacked to his powers whispered inside his ears.The darkness had clouded him, that was exactly what he wanted. He had been defeated by Adrian too many times and now, Jason wanted to be certain that he was fully prepared.But he was immediately interrupted by a knock on the door. Even while the knock persisted, he still had his eyes shut, but as soon as the eye mirror navigated to the door and he saw Freya standing right there, that was the moment that Jason disconnected from the darkness.He was too surprised and confused to do anything again as he thought of several reasons why Freya would be at his house and even after thinking long and hard, the only thing he thought was that this was a trap.A smile immediately curled through his lips. He was going to use this against her
Adrian had his gaze fixed on Uncle Sean, wondering what this was about, but he knew that he had been through the worst, and there was nothing more that he couldn't go through.“Go ahead and speak uncle; what is this about?”“It's about your foster parent; while all this mess was going on, your father happened to have given them an accommodation at the estate.”He paused, staring at everyone as if to find out if they were aware of this piece of information, but everyone maintained a blank expression, waiting for his next line of words.“They stole everything, everything worth gold in the house, and headed for the airport”“What!!” The entire Wesley family that was standing there spoke in unison.“You all should calm down, they were apprehended and because those items had put initials on them, a call was immediately placed to us”Hearing his last words, there was a flush of relief on their faces. Sean sti, ll had his gaze on Adrian, trying to ascertain his reaction, yet he did not seem
Avery was fast asleep when she was woken by the noise outside; she had guessed immediately that it was Adrian but could not go out to him as a result of the tubs tied to her wrist.“Dad, who was that?”“That was Adrian, I just told him about the divorce and you won't believe it, but he was okay about it”She expressed, his eyes widened with excitement that Avery could not believe she would see written over her father's eyes over her divorce.“You told him that I was divorcing him?” She scrunched up her face, filled with fury. “Dad! How could you do something like that without my consent?”“We have been over this, so why make a mountain out of nothing?” There was a nonchalant attitude on his face, which only seemed to get her more furious.“That is the thing there, we have been over this and I told you that this is my life, you do not get to make decisions for me, especially not about my marriage”She yelled at the top of her voice that it could be heard from miles away.“Haven't you b
Adrian and Klein hopped inside the car; Klein was in charge of the wheel as he drove off. They both came to a halt In Front of the hospital; although Adrian was curious to find out how Avery was, he knew that he had to pay a visit to his father first.“Adrian?” Freya and Aunt Amelia, who were seated right next to Daniel in the VIP ward, called out as soon as the door swung open.He had all the features of Adrian, but it was difficult for them to believe that it was Adrian, given that they had all concluded that he was either dead or injured.“Adrian, is that truly you?” This time, it was Uncle Sean who stood at the side; he was now standing next to Adrian, his eyes trailing at him from head to toe.“Of course it is me, were you all expecting me to be dead?” he tries to tease, hoping to ease the tense air, yet they did not seem convinced that this was Adrian standing before them; rather, they believed that his body had been stolen again.Freya Walked over to him and took in his scent,
Adrian sat in a dark room; next to him was Klein; he had been brutally wounded, yet he did not seem affected by it.A dark gaze stood in Adrian's eyes; it was the gaze of a man who had been wounded over and over again, and this time, all that he wanted was revenge.“Boss! Should we proceed?” Klein asked after a few minutes of silence with Adrian staring at the man tied up in front of him like a predator.“Yes!” His voice was deep, dark, and cold; it rang of nothing but cruelty.At the large table next to where Klein stood, there were several items used for torture.Jason sat at the extreme of the darkroom; there was another intense silence that harbored nothing but pain; he was bound to a chair, his hands chained behind.Jason had been asleep all this while he had no idea what had been going on, and the moment he opened his eyes, Klein inquired from Adrian if he could proceed with the torture.His eyes scanned around his environment; he recalled the event that occurred before he passe
Avery slowly unfurls her eyes, groggily taking in the unfamiliar surroundings. As she struggled to sit up, a wave of dizziness washed over her, forcing her back onto the pillow.“Take it easy, you have fully recovered,” she heard a voice speak, and as she turned around to catch a glimpse of the figure, she realized that it was Freya, and immediately, the previous event that had happened came flushing in.“My baby!” her thought took it in, her hands clasping on her tummy, a wave of fear and anxiety washed over her.When she was at the center of the town and was in pain, the only thing that she kept thinking about was the baby. Since she found out about her powers and the holy light, Avery knew that she was always going to die, but all that she wanted was to leave Adrian, a replica of her before her death.“You have nothing to worry about; your baby is doing alright; the doctor confirmed it,” Freya immediately assured her, hoping that would get Herb to relax, and indeed, Avery slowly re
Adrian was engaged; even just a gaze at Kelvin was making his heart boil, but at that moment, he had lost focus and did not realize when Jason had launched a surprise at him.The flames clouded his hands, but Daniel had caught hold of this, and as soon as Jason threw the attack at Adrian, Daniel shoved Adrian out of the path as quickly as possible.He had forgotten all about himself, and at that moment, the flame busted his face. Daniel fell to the ground; the smoke clouded his eyes so that it was difficult for anyone to see his features clearly.Seeing what had just happened to his father, Adrian’s eyes grew dark; he growled like a beast; no one had ever seen him like that, as they had no idea what he might be capable of doing.“Ahhhhh!” he roared, instantly, he was surrounded by flames, his eyes, and hand glowing, Adrian threw his first attack at Jason, but no doubt that Jason was already prepared for it, blocking it fiercely with his hands, the more json treis to block it, the more
Freya held Avery in her arms as they struggled to get on their feet, but Avery was so weak, and no matter how much she tried, she couldn't get up. Freya grew impatient seeing that the man who was after them was drawing closer as Amelia tried to take the others to safety.“I can't go, Freya, you just have to leave me here and run, it is me that they want, so I am sure that once they get their hands on me, they won't bother coming for the rest of you”She assured her, but Freya shook her head; she was reluctant about the situation and did not have any intention of leaving her.“You know that there is no way that I am ever going to do that. Adrian is going to kill me if I leave you behind and not to mention that you are carrying the future heir of the Wesley family so there is no way that I am going to leave you here”“But I can't move, i am only going to end up slowing you done, please you just have to leave and if I am lucky enough, I will still be alive when my dad comes here”Avery t
Chapter 336:Jason stood before the men of the Wesley family, their gaze pinned on him like they were ready for any action he might take, but what they had no idea about was the fact that Kelvin was right behind him.As soon as Jason had made mention of Grandpa Hallow, they were all confused and surprised, Kelvin was also stunned to hear him mention him like they were familiar as he was forced to come out of the light.“What did you just say?” This time, it was Kelvin who could not conceal his curiosity, his entire family staring at him with nothing but disgust, yet Jason ignored his question as he turned to one of his men who was standing right behind him.“I think the girl with the holy light went through that way, you need to go after her!” He ordered.The man he had ordered walked towards the Wesley family that was standing before the tunnel, but before he could make another attempt, Adrian had invoked the fire in his hands, and immediately, the man was on fire.“You must think th
The tunnel was so small that as Avery squeezed herself through it, she felt like she was suffocating.Her chest became so tight that it had become difficult for her to breathe; she could see her chest rising and falling rapidly with her heart so heavy that she had to stop moving.Since she was at the front and every other person had to wait for her to move in order for them to proceed, they all became confused.“Avery, is everything alright?” Amelia called out to her, Amelia was struggling so hard to hold her breath since there was a foul smell emanating from there.“You need to get going. This place stinks, and we can't hold it for a long while,” Claire complained, her voice filled with anger, but seeing that Avery hadn't responded, Amelia could tell that something was wrong.“Claire, shut up, can you tell that there is something wrong?” Amelia rebuked; speaking so loud in such a moist place made her feel so irritated.“Avery, speak to me and tell me that everything is alright?” Amel
