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

EVEI waited for the anticipation to grow so heavy that his hunger to know became insatiable. 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

This was a known ritual, and I couldn’t allow it, though I accepted that there was nothing that could be done to stop Zach from being tied around her charm. Inyoka moved around Zach as she surrounded us both. I held Zach's face and said, “Listen to me, you are going to die.” I started off with nothing wrong with being realistic; there was no saving him unless Inyoka had another plan, and as she has taken form, I wouldn’t know exactly what she had planned. “How dare you disrupt me!” Inyoka screamed at me; immediately, she grabbed me by the shoulder and threw me out of the water. I regained my stance, trying my best not to fall. I had simply had enough; it was wrong what she was doing, and now I won’t allow it. Also, I don’t plan on overexerting myself; Zach was a simple human, so this isn’t for him in anyway. “My love,” Inyoka said, trailing her sharp finger on Zach’s body as she tore off what he had on. The crazy part was that she touched him with her bare hands, and nothing hap

“Now we are on the same page, we need to discuss on the time we should kiss, I am thinking morning, afternoon and evening, that is if you are down for it,” I said oblivious of how this relationship thing worked, we weren’t in any sort of relationship still.I made him speechless as Zach chuckled at my Innocence, “Do we need days or time to kiss? I believe we can do it anytime, as long as you want it,” he dragged me closer, “Even now,” he said in a whisper.I push him away, “Pleqse be serious, I don’t intend on us being together though I don’t hate the idea, I am simply objecting to it,” I said plainly as I tried to explain for his better understanding.Zach took it with a nod, “No strings attached, you mean?”“Right! We are on the same page,” I reacted and Zach shrugged, “I am fine with whatever you choose,” he said as his smile faded.As we approached the village, almost all of the huts had engulfed in flames.“Where have you two been?” Mark asked immediately he saw us, I left it for

I sat cross-legged on my sofa, humming melodiously to a song I wrote and composed. It was titled Sounds of Torment and fit into what Raghul was passing through.He was distressed, and the only way he could relieve himself was by pacing back and forth through the house. Though I was supposed to take things seriously, as he claimed, Raghul makes it harder when he acts like this.“You know, we should count ourselves lucky that we have a week to figure this out,” I said, trying to at least make him feel relaxed; he was worrying himself too much.My interference didn’t hold anything as Raghul continued to be paranoid. “We have nothing; we basically have nothing!” He rang it into my ear.“Watch over Gavin; I am going to go for a nap.” I sighed as I headed to the room.I locked the door, climbed into bed, and slept off. I was so deep in my sleep that I didn’t realize Raghul had been consistently knocking on the door to say how much I needed it from his constant rambling.With grumbling
