"Do you like the dishes, here?" Charles asked Christian staring at the plates infront of them with a curious face.

Christian nodded his head with a bright smile, "Yes, all these are delicious uncle, thanks for bringing me here."

Charles smiled back at him, the soft clinking of cutlery, the scent of herbs and grilled meat, and the faint notes of classical music still echoed in Christian’s mind as he checked around their table.

"I'll be back in a minute, you can check around meanwhile," Charles had stepped out to take a call, leaving Christian to explore the quiet, luxurious hallway just beyond the dining area.

He didn’t know what pulled him in, curiosity, instinct, or something else entirely, but the dim hallway, filled with ancient paintings and warm sconces, wanted him to approach them, as if a spell cast on him, he walked in the hallway reaching those paintings.

The floor creaked underfoot, rich carpets muffling his steps.

Candle sconces flickered, casting dancing shadows across

  • The Lost Heir Of Sargent   WHY DID YOU BRING ME TO THIS PLACE?

    "Mo... Mom, is that you?" He called out once again, it was her, his mother, Marie.She looked younger, panicked, running barefoot, tears streamed down her face, as she held a baby in her arms carefully, as if she is protecting the baby from someone or something.A voice boomed from behind her."You can’t hide him forever, Marie! You think you can fight fate? You think you can protect him from what he is?" She didn’t stop. Didn’t even turn around.Just held the baby tighter, he can say it for sure, that baby infant was none other than him.Christian felt cold all over."You’ll never touch him! I'll never allow anyone to touch my baby," she screamed. "Not as long as I’m alive!" Thunder cracked above. Lightning split the sky. Christian wanted to run toward her, call out to her, but he couldn’t move. His body was frozen, as if trapped in a distance, "Mom... mom, can you hear me? Please look at me..." Hiding behind a huge tree, she gently glanced at the baby in her embrace, "My de

    "Actually," Charles began, only to be disturbed by the manager, "Mr. Charles..." Charles frowned at the manager, "I'm speaking to my nephew, can't you see that?" The manager whispered something in Charles's ear making Charles's face become pale filled with panic.Immediately getting back his composure, Charles said, "I'll be there in a minute..." As the manager left after a glance at Charles, Christian stared at Charles's face with confusion, "Is everything okay?" "Umm, I think so, but give me a moment, kid," Charles said as he stood to leave. "I need to speak with someone real quick, if you don't feel okay being here, you can wait outside for me." Christian nodded and stepped out of the restaurant. The cool night air brushed against his skin as he took a deep breath, "It's seriously suffocating inside," he glanced back at the restaurant one last time, "What a strange place, I prefer not to come here again..." Just as he took a breath in relief, his peace didn't last longer and

    "Do you want me to take care of it?" Charles raised an eyebrow, Christian shook his head, "Let's not do that uncle, it's okay even if they didn't learn anything, they lost a lot, I can understand that from their words, no matter how angry I'm at them, still wanting to ruin them to extent of having nothing isn't acceptable, I can't be that heartless." "Are you sure?" Charles asked hoping Christian would change his decision, but Christian nodded his head confidently, "Yes, I'm sure, everyone deserves a second chance to repent for what they've done, they deserve too, it's okay if they learn, it's okay even if they don't, as long as they don't mess with me, I don't need to bother about them, let's ignore this here itself." Charles gently ruffled Christian's hair, "You're just as kind as your mother." Christian smiled at him, and as they got into car, Charles started the engine, while Christian asked, "That manager and this restaurant, both not normal right?" "What made you feel that?"

    "Prepared for what?" Christian looked kind of confused, "Are we going to do something or what?" Lord Sargent said with a soft voice, "Let's go, if not we will be late." "Huh? Go where grandpa?" Despite Christian's confusion, none explained anything to him, they're on their way already, he is just following behind them like a puppy who is afraid of getting lost.They're not getting into cars or anything else, just on their feet walking right within the estate keeping him clueless making it hard to figure out, the Sargent estate was vast-too vast for Christian to have explored all of it yet. Even after many weeks of staying there, the place still held so many unfamiliar corners, rooms that seemed untouched, and corridors that whispered of history far older than he could understand.But nothing could have prepared him for what was about to happen that evening.Lord Sargent had told him very little, just giving small clarification about going somewhere, but the way he said it made it

    "Solaris?" the weight of that name is heavy, it rang familiar in his ears, stirring something deep within Christian.Like a whisper at the edge of his mind, something he should remember but couldn't quite grasp."Isn't it a place I asked you before, Grandpa?" He asked with a confused face, not understanding why his grandfather brought up that name now, when previously he didn't say anything no matter how much he insisted on knowing about that place."Yes," Lord Sargent nodded. "It is the birthplace of everything. Our bloodline, our legacy... our power."Christian's brows furrowed. "You're saying this isn't just a rich family with a long history?"Liliana chuckled softly. "Chrissy, the Sargents aren't just wealthy, we are one of the oldest and most powerful bloodlines in existence.""Powerful how? Superpowers?" Christian asked, crossing his arms.Lord Sargent gestured towards the strange objects around them. "Yes, the powers which normal people feel difficult to understand but too norm

    "You might also become a Guardian of Solaris just like your mother," Lord Sargent said with a gentle smile looking at Christian who is a spitting image of his daughter.Christian turned to him, confusion clouding his features. "Guardians? What does that mean? What's the role of a Guardian?" Liliana and Charles exchanged an unreadable glance before Lord Sargent continued."Protectors, Guardians are protectors of this place Chris, your mother was one of the few who had access to the realm of Solaris, since it's not a place for everyone and a place only the awakened can reach." The word ‘awakened’ stirred something deep inside Christian as he remembered Ezra's words.The strange energy he had felt within himself for weeks-the inexplicable strength, the heightened senses, the nightmares that felt like memories-everything suddenly seemed connected."Why didn't anyone tell me before about this?" He asked, his voice low but edged with something sharp more than curiosity, "No matter how man

    "Don't be nervous, Chrissy," Liliana tried to cheer him after looking at his pale face, Christian forced an awkward smile, "is it obvious?"Liliana nodded her head, Christian chuckled nervously, "well, I can't help..." Liliana gently rubbed Christian's back, "It's okay, everything will be fine." Soon, the golden door that had stood like a sentinel at the heart of the chamber suddenly shimmered, the constellations etched into its surface rearranging one final time before dissolving into light. In its place, something else showed up, it's an ornate mirror, tall and attractive, its frame of obsidian entwined with delicate golden vines that pulsed faintly, like veins carrying some ancient energy giving familiar vibes with an earlier golden door.The chamber fell quite all of a sudden sending nervous shivers in everyone's spine.Even the golden veins on the walls dimmed slightly, as if holding their breath.Christian stared at the mirror, and his heart pounded so hard that it's almost a

    "Give me your necklace, you swine!" Ivan's eyes fixed on the necklace around Christian's neck, "My girlfriend is obsessed with finding one like that and I hate to disappoint her, so just give it to me!" Instinctively, Christian's fingers ran to the smooth edges of the silver necklace, a delicate piece with swirling patterns showed its uniqueness. A few years ago, his mother suddenly disappeared, leaving Christian with only a necklace and a note, "It will always protect you, Chris!" After investigation, the police announced that his mother was dead. Christian tightened his grip on the necklace protectively. "Of course," he thought bitterly. "Everything that is important to me will always be important to Ivan, so that he can steal it from me." But he kept his voice calm. "I can't give this to you, Ivan, it's something my mother left me, so I can't let it go." "Do you think someone like you can say no to me?" Ivan crossed his arms with a sneer, Christian knows very well about his

  • WHAT KIND OF MYSTERIOUS PLACE IS THIS?

    "What kind of restaurant it is to be so far away uncle?" Christian looked curiously at Charles as he couldn't understand why it's taking too long for them to reach that particular restaurant when there are many restaurants passing by in their way.Charles smiled at Christian while driving the car, "That restaurant is very special to me, it's a place I used to sneak out late in the night with your mother." "Really?" Christian sounded excited making Charles to chuckle, "Yes, it's a place, both I and your mom hold many memories, after your mom left us, I used to visit that place more frequently to remember those memories, now finally I got an opportunity to take you there, I'm sure you'll enjoy the delicious dinner in that place."
