Mira's POV" Do not use your Chemorian powers in the open unless it is a life or death situation. "Their collective warning kept ringing in my head as I fought with myself, unable to make a decision. Was the situation dire? I was surely dying if I kept drowning for an hour. I did not know how to swim. And that crazy b*tch had just shoved me in a pool beside the garden.I had walked out of the hall because her gibberish was getting on my nerves. Apparently that was me trying to act c*cky." Mira! "I heard a voice as I kept struggling to stay afloat. " Mira!"I was certain that I knew that voice yet I could not quite recognize the person. There was a crowd building around the pool. Their shocked murmures weren't allowing me to focus on the voice that was approaching me. Before long I saw someone finally jump in the pool and steadily swim towards me. " Mira! " He gasped as he slid his back under me, finally allowing my nostrils to take in some much required air. I clung onto hi
" What do you mean by there are no more Marine pods doing any rounds? " Braze was talking to one of the surveillance guys when he scoffed. " Giving up so early, are we, Kian? I thought Mira used to call you her savior. " He shook his head, " It was just a mere coincidence ,pretty boy. I never got to tell her that. "" Brother, did you hear? The Marines have doubled their security and called back all their extra surveillance pods. I think someone knocked some sense into them."Braze's expression gravened." Doubled their security? Were there any recent attacks or threats around their regions? "" None that I heard about! " Brian shrugged, putting down his drink. " Then why would they scale up on their security all of a sudden? " Braze asked. " Beats me! I just wanted to let you know that they finally took a logical decision and I hope you would too. Sending our ships far and wide over a rumour about a dead girl... " He shrugged again, " I don't think that is princely . Father is di
At the Akashi tribe The King woke up with the sounds of metals tumbling one above the other. He sat up startled at the noise which seemed like it had come from his personal treasury. " A thief ? That's impossible! Azura! " He yelled. " Azura! " He called his pet Jinn again but happened. Which was odd. Azura would appear before him as soon as he called his name. The King wasted no more time in unlocking the door to his treasury and running inside. " Braze? " He was more than shocked to find his son standing amidst the pile of tumbling precious metal. " What the hell are you doing in here? How did you get in? "But instead of answering, Braze apologized. " I am sorry father. But I needed to do this. I will safely return this to you when I am done rescuing her. Mira needs me. I just be gone. "The King could hardly understand what he mean before Braze yelled, " Azura, take me to where Mira is! "Boom! The azure smoke that accompanied Azura's entry, filled the enclosure as the c
" I don't understand. Tell me what is the problem with my father? You said he did something to me. What did he do? Uncle Kilian has been lying to me all along. I thought things were starting to be different when I found my father, but you are telling me that even he is keeping secrets. I don't know whom to trust and whom not to trust anymore. "Mira held a bunch of her hair in her hand and sat down on the floor. A certain portion of her aura escaped despite the shield that Guardian Yvonne had put around her. " Mira! Calm down! It's not like I know the full story. Azura, quickly get done with the masking! " Braze yelled as the Jinn quickly got to work. " Done! " No sooner had Azura uttered those words when they turned their heads at approaching footsteps. " I told you , she would be here. " It was Guardian Yvonne, accompanied with Mira's father. Braze immediately came in front of Mira with his hands stretched out in defense. " Guardian Yvonne, I do trust you. But what is that ma
They had been sitting beside each other for hours but neither had been talking. Finally Calex took the initiative to break the ice. " I am sure you father would understand. "Braze was startled by his statement. " Love makes us do all sorts for stupid things, " Calex continued as Braze looked at him with confused eyes. " I hope you are not being too hard on yourself. Guilt is a very dangerous weapon. It keeps cutting you from the inside while nobody get to know how you are exactly feeling. " He tried to smile at Braze and that definitely made Braze feel more awkward. " You know, I used to love Kiara, Mira's mother, just like you love Mira. " Braze could tell that he was putting real effort into that conversation. His voice was shaky and his eyes were turning red as he spoke. The topic was sensitive, yet he was willing to make things clear. Guardian Yvonne had gone to look for Kian and the Marine Queen while Mira was sleeping in her room. " I was in love with Kiara before I was
" We will talk about this when you get back! " Kian's mother had just left when the front door almost blasted open. " He is coming. Where is Mira?"It was Xen. It seemed like he had run a million miles but he went straight for her, scooping her off the ground and kissing her in front of them all. " We need to get her out of here. Kilian is on his way. He is coming with his army. "Xen turned around at Braze and Kian, as if nothing had happened." How did you know that we were here? "" How does Kilian know? "Came the dual accusation. Xen signed and slowly unbuttoned his shirt and pointed towards his chest. " I did not know that we could still use this but when Kilian was chasing after my ship and wrecked it into half, my instinct kicked in. I could feel the two of you. And the power of the Staff manifested from my chest. "Xen pounced over the two of them and grabbed them into a bear hug with both his hands. " I missed you both! "His words came out of nowhere. " So it was you
" Why did we stop here? We should be running. This place is not very far from Guardian Yvonne's place. Kilian can catch up at any moment. "Xen yelled, paranoid. " Wait! Martha is relaying a message. We wouldn't get it if we crossed this perimeter. Ssshhh! Listen carefully, it's Yvonne. Is he... is he talking with Kilian? "Calex looked concerned. There was absolute silence as they listened to their conversation carefully with the help of the connection that Martha had created -" There was a time when I used to admire my sister. I used to look up to her. But then they began to shower unnecessary praises on her while all she did was sneak out to meet with men. Like I didn't know what she was doing in the name of training for strength. "" What rubbish! Kiara never saw any men apart from Calex.And your tribe ostracized her for that. " Yvonne tried to counter Kilian's claim. " She did a lot more than that. I saw her myself with Netera... "" You cannot be serious.... " Yvonne fumed
Earth had become a ragging battle field. There was news about random blasts and terrorist attacks all over the news. There was a frenzy everywhere as people ran indoors to hide inside their homes and basements. The Watcher Headquarters was going crazy, trying to handle calls from all the Presidents and Prime Ministers. It was true that they were answerable but the situation had blown out of proportion. They had no other choice than to call back their very best. Rozelle, George and Robert, walked back in the building, matching their steps. "Never thought that I would be back in business! " George stretched as the humanoids greeted them with coffee mugs. " Who would have thought that Gala had developed such a wonderful anecdote. She is talented, isn't she? " Rozelle read Robert's expression closely as she asked the question. Robert knew that he was in a tricky situation. He had to praise Layla for her credibility but he had to do so without making his lover jealous. " Life, my d
