Jason stood outside the abandoned building where Avery was being held hostage, his eyes darting around for any incoming vehicle, but there didn't seem to be any; he held a cigarette to his mouth.Avery had been held hostage since noon, and now it was dawn, yet Adrian wasn't here yet. Jason had gone ahead to assure the members of the underworld during the meeting about how much Adrian loves Avery.“He wouldn't waste any time, once he is informed that Avery is abducted, and regarding the address, I can assure you that he will be here the next minute”Those were his exact words to the underworld and yet Adrian isn't here yet as he was starting to wonder what was going on in Adrian’s head.Just while he was engulfed in his thoughts, one of his guards walked up to him. The guard who had been in charge of watching over Avery since she was abducted stood on the balcony right behind Jason.He could tell that Jason was in deep thought and did not dare say a word for a long while until his pres
Jason strode out of there; outside the abandoned building was a middle-aged man in his late fifties pacing around there, his eyes drifting over to his watch from time to time; he exhaled softly the moment that he noticed Jason coming over.“Whatever made you ask me to come all the way to the middle of nowhere, it better be good!”He expressed impatiently, no doubt that he wanted to leave as quickly as he could.“You are right, it is important, more important than anything that you might have been doing before I called you”Doctor Shell looked at Jason; he could tell that this was indeed an important situation; it was at that moment that he finally calmed down.“What is this about?”“The girl with the holy light, she claimed to be pregnant” Jason announced as his face grew cold.“That is a huge problem for all of us”“I know, but we are not sure yet, for all we know, she might be saying it just to gain sympathy from us which is why I need you to go there and examine her”“And if it tur
Klein had offered to ride, but Adrian was in no mood for a delay, and just like he had expected, Adrian was driving through the busy street like he had absolutely no control of the car.“Boss! I think that you need to calm down; you haven't told me what they told you on the phone that prompted such action,” he requested, but Adrian ignored him, avoiding as many cars as he could at a go and ignoring all traffic lights.“Is Avery dead?” Klein asked, and even while he did, he was afraid of the response that he was going to get. Adrian turned to stare at him briefly for a while before he turned his attention back on the road.“Are you wishing death on her?” he asked in a deep voice with his gaze on the road.“No boss, I am just thinking about any other reason that might make you act in such a manner”“Avery is pregnant!” Adrian blurted out like the words felt sore in his mouth.“What!” It took Klein some seconds to recover from the shock before he spoke.“I didn't know that the both of yo
Kelvin had just arrived at the abandoned building, his eyes trailing around for any incoming vehicle. The entire building was surrounded with arms men, at the top were two snipers.“How is it going?” He asked Jason soon as their eyes met but Jason had his gaze staring at blank space and not saying a word to him.“Everything is ruin, at this point, I think that we might just get rid of Adrian”Everything is ruined, what are you talking about?” Kelvin asked as he narrowed his eyes in a confuse manner.“The girl is pregnant, the ritual cannot go on as long as she is pregnant and now, Adrian has refused to show up”“If the pregnancy is too much of a problem, then we can get rid of it right?” Kelvin asked but he shook his head.“Them what about we hold her hostage for as long as we can until she gives birth?” He suggested again and this time, Jason seen interested in his suggestion.“That isn't such a bad idea, but if we decided to keep her, where can we do that for such a long time withou
As a strong wind came through, all three of them found their selves on the ground; Kelvin grasped his chest; the fall was so intense that he was finding it difficult to recover.They all knew that this was caused by the intensity of Avery's powers, which they were unable to control, and despite the fact that they had all fallen together, Avery seemed right.“What was that?” Kelvin asked while he tried to recover from the shock, and even as he did, he realized that Jason was still on the floor.“It's the holy light, it is rejecting us!” Jason announced while he rose to his feet furiously; although there was blood trailing down his nose at that point, it did not matter to him.He grabbed Avery at the top of her dress, no doubt that he had forgotten the fact that she was a pregnant lady while he shoved her to the wall.“Why is the holy light rejecting us? What has Adrian done?” He asked, his eyes red, and even his nose still had the blood dripping; although he could feel it, it did not s
When Avery had seen Adrian walk in looking like death, she felt like he had been lost forever, and there was no way that he would ever be able to recognize her, but the moment that he returned back to normal, there was this flush of relief inside of her.“I was so scared…. Adrian, I thought that you were also going to kill me along with them” she cried out, her hands still wrapped around him in a tight hug.“You should know how I feel about you Avery and even if I become a monster, there is no way that I wouldn't recognize you”His hands gently stroked her back as she sobbed; when he was certain that she had calmed down, he pulled away from the hug but still held her; that way, she was staring into his eyes.“Listen to me Avery, we do not have much time right now and you have to do as I said”“Okay….”“Those people that have been after you have sealed this place with some magical powers, and it is going to be difficult for me to get out of here, but I need you to leave right now!”His
Daniel had just arrived back at the estate, but he could tell that everything wasn't the way that they should be. Everything felt odd to him and none of the men working for the Wesley estate were at their duty post.Felt he had thought that the estate had been under some sort of an attack, he immediately asked the driver to come to a halt as he hurried inside but there was Amelia who seemed to be pacing around disturbed“What happened, was the estate attacked?” That was the first question he had asked the moment that he hurried inside, his eye scanning around but he could see that everything in the living room was intact.“Sir…. You are back!” Amelia stutterr, her heart racing rapidly.“Yes, and that doesn't answer my question; where is everyone?” He asked again as she struggled to find the right words to explain to him what had happened here.“Adrian came over and took everyone!” A tiny voice spoke from the staircase, that was Sarah who rushed out of her room as soon as she heard the
The entire family had their jaws dropped; Freya, who had just walked in on the scene and was trying to understand what was going on, was also stunned by the news.“Pregnant, Avery you are pregnant?” Freya asked, for fear that she had just misheard.“All this while you were planning a wedding with the heir of the Maxton group, you have been having sex with Adrian, and yet you act like Seth was the one who had betrayed you, yet you did worst!”Sarah sneered at her with a disgustful look on her face. Avery knew that she had to say something to defend herself, but they all had judging expressions on their face, including Freya, who had been her best friend.“Klein! Are you certain about this?” Daniel asked.“I am not sure Sir, but this was strictly the instructions that Adrian had given to me”Daniel was silent for a while, no doubt that he was expecting her to say something but Avery was too exhausted even to open her mouth.“Fine. You can go inside; I will have this discussion with you
