EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWI got to the hospital, parked my car then walked into the hospital. I was heading to the ward when one of the staff in the hospital tapped me by the shoulder. I turned around.“Sorry sir, are you not one of the Robinson’s?” She bowed and asked politely.“Yes, hope nothing is the matter?” I asked now fully facing her.“Not at all, but I am guessing you are the one the doctor instructed us to inform that he would be in a meeting with the rest of your family by the time you are here.” She said.“Oh, where is that?” I asked.“At the conference room on the fourth floor. Do you need help navigating your way there?” She asked.“No, thank you. I can surely find my way around.” I said to her then walked away while she also went her way. I got into the elevator then input the digit four to indicate that I was headed to the fourth floor. Thankfully, no one else came in the elevator with me.I got to the fourth floor in no time then asked one of the staff there
EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEW“My gallery? How did you know about what is going on in my gallery? The last I checked, you wanted nothing to do with me and my career.” I said blankly.“You seem to forget no matter what, you are still my heir. You are a part of me. The one who will live on after me. So it is expected that I concern myself with whatever concerns you even if I am not in support of it.” He said arrogantly.I realized he had not changed after all. He was still his ever possessive self.“Well, I like how you are planning to team with the company to fight the crime organization together.” He said.“Yes, that is because we have a common enemy. You of all people should know I would never seek help from the Robinson’s but an enemy of my enemy is my friend. That is simply what I did.” I clarified for him in case he was thinking I was getting interested in the company.He went silent for a few minutes then said, “Edward, do you really never see yourself ruling this empire? I
CELESTIA’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWI headed to Thomas’ ward together with Taylor. I wanted to be by his side that moment. The case was sinking right before us but there was little or nothing we could do. We sat together in silence on the guardians’ seat. The head doctor soon walked in to check on Thomas with some assistants. It was his turn to get treated on the schedule. While they were treating Thomas, my mind travelled back to meeting we had earlier about how Pa Robinson’s memory issue could be induced rather than natural from his lifestyle habits. He had even been careful with his health, what he ate, drank and all of that. I then wondered if it could have been truly induced. “Erm… we are done. His vitals are in a close to perfect stage. Very soon hopefully, he will come back to us.” The doctor said smiling, we thanked him then exited the ward with his assistant.I asked Taylor to excuse me as I followed the doctor. I was half running to catch up with him.“Excuse me, doctor.”
CELESTIA’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWThe elders said they were going to also return to the estate in a short while hence we left without them. Moreover, they came in their own different cars. Although, since Edward’s father left angrily earlier, his mother might have to ride with Thomas’ parent. The fact that she did not ask to ride with us so we help her to their quarters, then it meant she had herself sorted. We eventually got home after spending hours in traffic. Everywhere was packed due to the preparation for the full moon night. Every adult wolf anticipated that night. It was a night for us all to appreciate that part of us except that it became tragic in the recent times when people started getting missing. People became fearful to even celebrate but this time, it was different. After the news we leaked to the media as anonymous, the government had been doing all they could to ensure that the public were at rest as many had been pointing fingers at them. It looked bad for the
EDWARD’S MOTHER’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWI headed to Pa Robinson’s ward after the doctor was done explaining all the jargons concerning his health. I was with Thomas’ parent on the guardians’ bench watching Pa Robinson when my husband suddenly stormed him to announce that he was leaving with fury in his bloodshot eyes. He had stayed back with Edward to have a discussion earlier while the rest of us left the conference room. I knew there and there that their little father-to-son chitchat had gone south. I also knew for a fact that he was not going to listen to anything I had to say in that moment so all I did was watch him storm off.“Edward and his father still like cat and dog?” Thomas’ mother asked.I nodded then returned my face. She and her husband looked judgmental before she even spoke.“It is high time your son learnt to be respectful to his father. They definitely can not continue this way.” Thomas’ father added.“They are getting along. Something else must have happened.”
EDWARD’S MOTHER’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWHe struggled to catch the breath the moment he lost the support from the machine. He grabbed my hands suddenly and I gasped loud then covered my mouth reflexively. I was so scared that I felt my heart jumped out of my body. I could not wriggle free from his hold out of feat. I was stuck on that same spot until his struggle started reducing and his grip started getting weaker. He was losing the fight for his life. Then, suddenly, he let out a loud exhale and that turned out to be his last breath. I fell on my buttocks on the floor as his grip loosened and life slipped out of him. I had just murdered Thomas. I was blank as I stared at his body. My heart was beating a little too fast now that I felt like I might pass out from too much adrenaline rush. I was fixed on the floor for a few minutes before I stood up. I staggered at first then with my shaking hands. I returned his hands back beside him and positioned him the way he was when I enter
EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWAfter sending my assistant out of the studio. I became maniac on the canvas as I unleashed all my emotions on it through the ink and brushes. Not too long after, another knock came on the door.“What is it? Did I not ask you to let me be until I am done in here?” I screamed at whoever was knocking at the door thinking it was my assistant again.“Hey, Edward. It is me.” A voice that sounded like Tony’s came on from the door.“Tony?” I asked to be sure I heard right.“Yes. It is me.” He responded.That was when I recalled we spoke on the phone before I left the hospital to meet me at the studio.“Come in.” I said and continue with what I was doing.“Is everything okay? Why would you scream like that?” Tony asked immediately he stepped in.“It is nothing. I am just stressed. I thought that was my assistant. You can have your seat.” I told him pointing at a couch in the corner. He moved over to check what I was drawing on the canvas then looked at me in
EDWARD’S FIRST PERSON POINT OF VIEWI checked my phone and saw several missed calls from a couple people but I did not bother to check. I put on the music instead and shook my head in pleasure to the rhythm blasting from the speakers. We got to my house in no time. “I hope you have enough water because I am about to the most soaking anyone has ever done in history. I am not about to get my furs get stained with oil paint tonight.” Tony joked and we both laughed at his dry jokes. Tony had the habit of always bragging about how his furs was the prettiest and fullest during the full moon night. To be sincere, his furs were truly beautiful and full but of course not even close to being the fullest as he usually bragged. We both got inside and had our shower. I was done over thirty minutes before he joined me in the bar. I was already down a glass of wine by the time he joined me.“Wow, you could not even wait till I got ready before starting the party? You really started without me, huh?
