Adrian kept on pacing around his room, his hands clenched and unclenched at his side as if trying to grasp a solution, knowing that there was a mixture of fear in him, he could not stop staring through the window wondering if the assassin was going to pop through at any moment.

He was filled with fear, anxiety, curiosity, and anger. There were so many unanswered questions and he knew that he was only getting the answer from his Master.

But how he was going to leave was now a problem, the securities had been increased and now everywhere was fortified, everyone was already suspecting him so attempting was going to be more difficult for him.

Adrian tried all attempts to sleep but it was all in vain so he hurried downstairs and felt grateful seeing that there was no one in the living room and then he stridden towards the Back door, there were two securities there and seeing him, they both blocked his path.

    Albert shook his head, he let out a loud sigh before he finally began and knew that this was going to be a lot for the young boy to take in. “You see Adrian, there is so much about the spiritual world that you are yet to understand”“Yeah, I noticed. The woman who had approached me told me that I handled the matter with Avery too harshly and ended up rattling the underworlds, but why do I feel like you have been keeping most of this a secret from me and you know that I can't protect the holy light or even the fight the underworld if I do not even know what it is all about”“There are things that I have been keeping away from you for your own good. You were born with the spiritual power of the earth that was passed down to you from your mother who was also a student of mine in the past”“What are you saying, that meeting you was not a coincidence?” Adrian opened his eyes in shock, it felt to him like everything that he had known all his life was not true.Adrian had met his master Albe

After seeing the action that Adrian had displayed by sneaking away, he was also forced you believe that Adrian might not be allowed what he looks like.So he waited alone for him, although he could have tracked his cell phone, but he wanted to hear some explanation from him and as soon as Adrian stepped on him, he was so startled to see his father whom he thought would be fast asleep standing right there and staring at him in a descending manner.“Dad! You are still awake?”“Yes, I was waiting for you to come home and I must say that it took you quite some time”“I know what this looks like”“No you do not, so how about

    More than Daniel was scared about everything that his son had explained to him, he was also not certain that his son had what it took to defeat whoever they were. “Adrian, I suggest that you stay away from Avery since that is what they have asked of you. You are my son that I have lost for years and I can't afford anything happening to you”“I understand how worried you are, but you have nothing to worry about, I am going to be careful and nothing is going to happen to you”“No! This topic is not up for negotiation. Whatever all this is about, let the adults handle it, as for you, you are the heir to Wesley Corporation and have a responsibility there, so I suggest that you start taking responsibility for your family and company rather than a delusional world!”Daniel concluded and was about to walk away, but then he came to an abrupt halt again as he turned to his son. “I have assigned new guards to you who are more capable of protecting you, after school tomorrow, you are expected to

I have taken my hands off this and hope you find a means to pay off this loan”“George….” Mr Smith was not done talking before a loud beep sound came through and that was the call ending. He caressed the bridge of his nose as he lowered his head down to his computer like there was a solution sitting there, but even at that moment, he felt so lifeless.Just then, the door twisted open with his wife stepped in, she stared at him briefly before she asked. “Is everything alright?”“yeah, sure, why shouldn't it be alright”“Okay, I just thought that you looked a lot of distance lately”“It is nothing serious, I just have a lot on my mind” he responded with his eyes fixed on his computer while he thought that his wife was finally going

But after an intense time that had passed by, Uncle Theo suddenly turned to him as he asked. “Where is the minute for this meeting, I thought you were asked to copy the file before the meeting commences?”“Yes and I asked Adrian about that part”“Adrain? I thought he just started work today?’“Yes and he assured me that he could copy a file, i went as far as giving him instant on how it is done and he was clear on it”“Then where is he and the file?” Daniel who was getting impatient asked and they all had their gaze at the door wondering when he was going to come in”“Eva, hurry up and send for Adrian, he should be through with the files now, I do not know what is holding him!” Kelvin ordered.“Yes Sir” Eva nodded her head as she dashed out of the conference hall and hurried over to Adrian where she informed him that his presence was needed at the board meeting.

Eva quickly stepped in with a cup of coffee but Adrian stood there, still confused at what just happened.“What was that that just happened?” Adrian asked once Eva had placed the cup and stepped away from there.“What are you talking about?”“You know exactly what I am talking about. You and I both know that you had clearly stated that you wanted those files ready in a week, because if you had asked me that you wanted those files ready today, you know that I would have done that, yet you still found it easy to make me look like a fool in front of the entire board, why did you choose to do something like that”“I do not know what you are talking about, you are the one who failed to listen while I was speaking, because if you had listened carefully, then you would have heard me say that the files would be used today, even Eva could bear witness to it, so what are y

    Kelvin remained standing, although he soon did not feel comfortable about his actions, yet he remained calm. “Whatever it is that you have to say, be quick with it and leave as soon as possible, I told you the last time that we met that I do not want to have anything to do with the underworld again”“The sanctuary was burnt down” Jason suddenly blurted, ignoring what Kelvin was ranting about.“That is a joke right?” Kelvin asked with a soft chuckle that escaped his lips. “The sanctuary is filled with supernatural items, there is no way that he would burn down no matter what they did, which is why I think that this is a joke”“You think that I will drive all the way to your house in the middle of the night just to crack jokes with you. You are right in some aspect, the sanctuary can't burn down with just natural flames unless it is one with the power of the flames”Jason explained as Kelvin thought about it for a while and could not seem to comprehend what it meant.“Look here Jason, I

    Jason opened his eyes as he felt his head banging with pain. He hasn't been without his powers for a long time now and without it, he felt so weak that it was killing him.His eyes trail around the basement as he realizes that he is all alone in there. All members of the Smith family were gone, and with his head pounding with pain, he raised his arm to touch his head and realized that there were traces of blood,d, which was the source of the pain.Jason exhaled softly before he sat upright, filled with regret as to how he had let his guard down. Just while he was still trying to get a grasp of himself, he stared at his phone and realized there were ten missed calls and fifteen messages from his right-hand man.“Fuck!” he cursed, rising to his feet, and despite how weak and sour he felt from the pain and beating he had received, he still hurried away from the apartment.He got into his car and sped off, arriving at the scene where all the men had been lined up and waiting for his arriv

    First, they were reluctant to accept the food as they had no idea what sick games he was trying to play. Mrs. Smith stretched out her arm to grab one of the meals that was carefully packaged in a takeout, but her husband immediately stopped her before turning his attention to Jason. “Mr. Jason, why have you brought us this food, is that the way you want to have us killed?” Mr. Smith asked but Jason chuckled so loud that one would think there was not a hint of danger around him. “Poison you, I mean that is an insult to me, if I want you dead, there are just several ways that I would do it and I might not even have to lift a finger, why would I go through the stress of having you poisoned” He explained and knowing how powerful he was, they thought that he was right. “If that is not the case, then why have you brought food to my family when I know that you are going to end up killing us after these” Mr. Smith asked, and this time, Jason, who seemed to be losing his patience, f

    Jason was filled with rage when he arrived at the sanctuary; so many members had all burned down, and those who had survived were barely recognized, not to mention the items they had lost.“Boss! What are we going to do now?” His right-hand man, who had called him on the phone when all of this started, asked.“Where were you when the fire started and why couldn't you put it off with your powers?” Jason scolded, he was so angry that he badly needed someone he was going to take out his anger on.“I am sorry Boss, I tried my best, but the fire was no ordinary one, it was Adrian's flame, and no matter what I did, it wouldn't stop instead it just kept getting worse”He explained. Jason's face had turned red, with bulging veins from his forehead like twisted ropes; his eyes were blazing with fury that his right-hand man had to drift backward for fear of what he might do to him.“Adrian….” He groans with his fist clenched. “You have done so much, and I think that it's time to get my revenge;

    The entire family was silent for a long while like they were expecting Kelly to do the talking. Tears trickled down her cheek while she thought of what to say and yet she could not think of any.“Kelly! You heard what my uncle just asked you and we really would like to know, how can we be certain that you are not lying to us and this is not part of some sort of sick game from Jason which you are just involved in?”Adrian went ahead to imply with Avery still seated next to him.“I don't know how else I can prove myself to you all, better still, you can send someone to go and check on the Smith family, you will find them locked up in the basement and then you will realize that what I am saying is the truth”She assured them, this time, there was a hint of combination in their face as they thought about it and the possibility that it might indeed be true.“Adrian, what do you think?” Grandpa Hallow sought his opinion, but after the conversation that he had earlier today with Klein, Adria

    The car came to a halt right at the parking lot of the Wesley estate, with Adrian hurrying inside. In the living room were Grandpa Hallow, Daniel, Uncle Sean, Uncle Theo, Aunt Amelia, Claire, Sarah, and Freya. Avery stood at the door; she had always been finding it difficult to get along with the family and thought that she should take it slowly.There was the visitor whom Avery had spoken about on the phone, which was Kelly. Kelly sat on the single couch; she looked unkempt, her hair disheveled, and Adrian could barely recognize her as he walked in.“Kelly?” he asked, his eyes scanning around her, yet he did not forget to give Avery a gentle kiss before he turned to Kelly.‘Kelly, is that you?” he asked again; it was so hard for him to believe that this was truly her and how possible she had lost so much weight. Kelly lowered her head with a shy smile; she knew that she wasn't at her best, which only made her more embarrassed that she couldn't look him in the face.“How have you been

    .Adrian stormed the sanctuary alongside thousands of soldiers and police. He stood outside with Klein standing next to him as he watched them burn the place down; although there were several members inside, he didn't care; he wanted them burned alongside the building.“After this, what next?” Klein asked, seeing the fury that swept through his face. He had never seen his boss this angry, and he knew that after the encounter with the dark master, something had changed within him.“I am going to find every other member left and I am going to have them killed, they hurt my family too much and I will be a fool to let them get away with it and I am going to be starting with Kelvin who seems to be on the run”“What about Jason? You do know that he is still alive, right?” asked, his face glued to Adrian like he was trying to take in all of his emotions.“I took away all of Jason's powers, he won't be able to do much now” There was shock on Klein's face for a breath moment before he asked;“

    Finn, alongside the rest of his family, could feel their throat dry; Kelly could clearly hear the heartbeat of the others, and given how hungry she was, if she had the opportunity, she was ready to eat them alive.After Jason had left, he wanted to kill Kelly, but given how much Finn had pleaded with him, he finally decided to punish the entire family by locking them up in the basement of their apartment with no food or drink, and no matter how much they screamed, no one would be able to hear them.And as a result of that, the family blamed Finn for bringing Kelly into their home.“There were other girls from other wealthy families that you could have met with and taken our family from this burden that has been resting on our head, instead you chose a girl like her who has come to ruin her”“Come on Mom, don't put the blame on her, it is not her fault, you were the one who insisted that Dad worked with Jason even when Adrian was ready to help us for no cause”Finn sighed, he was getti

    Adrian, along with Avery and Klein, all rose to their feet as they watched the men storm out of there. First they were afraid as they had no idea what other crimes they might have committed until Mr. Daniel alongside his daughter and Mr. Woods stormed out of the car.“DADDY!” Avery yelled at the top of her voice as she rushed over to him, she had never been this happy to see him like this before. She wrapped her arms tightly around his neck and tears filled her eyes.“Daddy…. I was so scared, I never thought that I would ever get to see you again”“Me too. When I heard about what was happening, I blamed myself for neglecting you, if something had happened to you, trust me when I say that I wouldn't have been able to live with myself”The older man could not hold back the tears that formed in his eyes as he embraced his daughter with a heavy heart. Daniel and Freya stood before Adrian, their eyes scanning around him with so many questions in their heart as they were reluctant to engage
