BOOK ONE OF THE IMMORTAL SERIES “Over a hundred people have reported you for aggravated assault, vandalism of property, several attempts at bullying, invasion of privacy, and reckless driving. Who are you?” The stupid police officer in front of me asked as he continued to read out, “Kidnapping??” “Mark I think that is enough,” Zachariah intervened. Mark closed the file that had all of my detailed crime reports as he glared at me. “And so on,” he said, placing it on the table that separated us from each other. “What do you have to say for yourself?” he asked. I sniffed into the air as I exhaled out deeply, my back relaxing less comfortably on the iron chair as I answered with not a single show of concern at all. “What can I say? They all deserved it.” I cackled as I admired my gloves, having nothing but evil thoughts as I looked at them. ____________________________________________________________________ Cursed since birth to become the Snake Goddess and wield supernatural powers way stronger than she can imagine, Eve is on a journey to become one of the greatest the immortal realm has ever seen, and she won't be on this journey alone. But with her amulet still missing and the world slowly drowning into utter chaos because of her, time can only tell if there has been a mistake made in handing over such powers to her, as there are secrets that lie ahead of her that can either rip her apart or make her stronger.

I had to reveal it to him, which means, just like Raghul’s ancient grand father knew, he must also swear on a blood covenant.“I—” I started off as I looked at him. I had a sly grin on my face to show my unseriousness. “I am Eve Faye, a writer of children's books that has been sold in over 59 countries, and that is it,” I said so innocently in my attempt to mock him.“I already know this,”“Oh, you do? I guess that is all there is to know then; do have a wonderful evening.” I tried to walk away, and then he blocked my path.“That night you murdered that old woman; you had a purple fog surrounding you; there were snakes on the floor; your hair wasn’t black as it is now but white; and when you turned, your eyes were translucent,” Zach explained. My body shivered because everything the oracle said was coming true. “What are you?”I was quiet.“Say something,” Zach calmly coerced me. “If it's som
~EVE~“You owe me,” Inyoka walked up to me suddenly and said. “I want you to repay me now,”My forehead furrowed trying to think of where she was coming or going with this, “I don’t owe anybody, rather they do the owing, I don’t know what you are talking about,” I said boldly walking away from her.“Then I shall have your throat slit, maybe you will remember what you owe me,” Inyoka threatened and I came to a halt and turned to her.“Look at me,” I said to her as she eyed me from the ground to my head. “I am a slave! You wanted me to serve you right, that is what I am doing,”“And what makes you think serving me is enough not to have you beheaded?” Inyoka asked.I dislike this so much, the fact that I am willing to pretend I can’t go up in battle against her. The fact that I have to keep myself on the law because I am in a world I have no clue of.“Fine,” I surrendered, “How do you want that I repay you?”“Nice we are on the same page,” Inyoka smiled showing that she had won this roun
Eve “What is your relationship with him?” Inyoka asked as she came into cell moments later after I had gone to figure out what I had done. “Zach?” I asked her back not even bothered about how condescending she sounded towards me. Besides, I was tired of being asked the very same question from everyone. “Him,” Inyoka replied as she placed her hand on the cell door, “What is about you that draws him to you? I want to have it,” She opened the cell, “Tell me, and I shall release you,” I raised my brows as I stared at her in unbelief, “Who the hell are you to think that you can decide when I can be released? Does it look like I am desperate to walk out those doors?” I glared at her and then burst out laughing. Inyoka was unhinged as she squinted her eyes at me, “I see… you don’t like him. He told me that he does,” I was bewildered, “He said that?” Inyoka nodded with a sigh, “He did, but I am glad it is not reciprocated which means I still have a chance. You see, he caught m
Eve “So when do you get killed?” The oracle batted her eyes at me as I asked. “Why are you asking? You want to watch? Same way you wanted to watch that girl jump off the roof,” The oracle stated and I was mesmerized by the fact that she knew all of these. I shrugged, “I love watching human beings die, nothing wrong in that. Other than pollute the earth, there is nothing that they add to this world, they are despicable and remarkable gullible fools,” I insulted with a wide grin on my face. It was true, human beings are one of the weakest animals on this world. “So do you like him? The one who brought bread? He seems nice and he is very much human,” The oracle said as she switches to Zach. I pretended as if not to know who she was referring to as I feigned ignorance, “Who? The detective?” “Yes, him,” The oracle confirmed as she became interested to what I have to say about Zach. “Which one? There are two of them,” I said, continuing to play dumb. “The one who was nice e
While she set the rest of them free, I was left abandoned in a cell for destitute. I was convinced she was doing this for some reason, like I could tell she despised me already.I mean who wouldn’t ? she doesn’t even need to know that I was also the Inyoka myself but given we were both from different times, it was right for her not to know yet.Something did bring me here and I have accepted that oracle was right about there being a shift in time.“Sit down, standing close to the protector will not save you from her wrath,” the woman covered in a long cloak and seated at a farther corner of the cell had said to me.I stared at her as I found her familiar enough.“Coincidence?” the woman’s voice cracked as she uttered lifting up her cloak which covered her face.“You are that fake seer,” I said confirming for myself she was the oracle indeed.“Fake? Are you sure?” The oracle raised her voice in a questionable way.“I see you survived, now complete your vision of me. That woman posing a
~E V E~I was astonished.She was everything that I was.As she head to us, I got even more confused, she was clearly not me in anyway but she has the features of the inyoka and most importantly—the amulet, she is wearing hers.“Man,” The barbarians tribal chief ignored the rest of us as she went directly to Zachariah, “Man from my dreams,” she said, I hardly could see what she was doing to him but I could feel Zach discomfort.Okay, maybe I can’t feel his discomfort but I personally won’t like anyone getting close to me like that and saying all of that to me.“The rope will be halved,” She struggled with her English as she said to him and then returned to her people and spoke in a language none of us understood.She pointed at Zach and announced something to them, and all we could hear where their cheers. She then point at us and her demeanor change. I could only understand through her gestures made as her thumb went across her neck and her people cheered again.“Well, star
~E V E~I struggled to get up quickly as Zach pulled me back on him, “Don’t make a move,” he said almost in a whisper so our attacker won’t hear.“But I am uncomfortable,” I told him as I fought away from him and he didn’t allow me through those thick hands of his holding me down. “Let go!” I ordered in a firm tone when it seems he was doing this on purpose.“I thought you were tough,” Zach said with a chuckle as he still kept me in the shackles of his arms, “Your heart is beating too fast,” Zach whispered into my ear and bit my lobe.“What are you doing??” I punched him hard on his stomach and he groaned in pain.“That hurt,” he admitted.“As it should,” I replied sharply.Zach grinned on the spur of the moment as he held my face, “Your eyes,” he deep into them trying to study it, “I like you Eve, I don’t know why I find you so mesmerizing but I do,” he confessed with his eyes still fixated on mine and I frowned, “Your heart rate just increased its pace, you like me too, if not you w
E V E~“So this is the best you can do,” Raghul suddenly complained as we both boarded the plane, “Economy?”I was stunned for the moment as I paused and said in low tone, “This is all we have left, aren’t you the one who said we don’t have any money?”“I did, but who is the one who also said one of should at least get a job? Me, and who is the one who is planning a trip all of a sudden? You,” Raghul said as he pushed forward to find our seat.“If you want to leave, you can,” I said furiously and immediately Raghul decided to take me up on the offer as I tried to stop him, “Our seat is that way, come,”“You know I can do it right,” He sounded threatening and I didn’t doubt him for a second, I actually know that he can.We came up to our seat to see a couple with the man holding their baby with them sitting on I and Raghul’s seat so comfortably.Someone is about to have their hair pulled out for sure.“You are sitting on our seats,” I said strongly to them in my very calm and subtle to
ÈVE“Where are they?” Zachariah asked, sounding agitated.“They took a toilet break and said that I wait here; whatever happened in the bathroom, I don’t know,” I replied.“Miss Eve, I need to know where they are, so stop playing games,” Zachariah stressed with a stern tone, and again I repeated that I did not know. “You don’t know?” he asked.“I don’t,”Zachariah let out a deep sigh as he banged his hand on the table. “I won’t ask you again, because I have noticed your meddling in this case can no longer be a coincidence; where are they?!” He shouted at me, and I glared.“If you wake this baby up, I swear, you shall hate me,” I warned as his eyes looked down at innocent Gavin, who was asleep a moment ago, but he wasn’t.“You have a baby?”“Starting this morning, yes,” I responded as I adjusted his pacifier.“Eve, I don’t understand. Is this your child?” Zachariah asked again, and I raised my head. "Yes, he is; isn’t he beautiful?”“Zachariah, we have checked the surrounding area, and
