The meeting has been going on for well over two hours now, and Zarus still isn’t satisfied with the fact that they would still have to wait to figure out where the kids are.“I just don’t know how any of you will be able to sleep knowing fully well that something terrible is happening to kids out there, and to think that we’re expecting a—” He paused.“Sorry, you know what, we probably shouldn’t dwell too much on this.” He apologized, even Zarus knew when he was about to cross a line, and he could tell that he was about to do it.“I still need to get back to the divinity realm and ask master Zade if he knew anything about it, and if he does, which I know he does because I feel that’s the reason he probably asked me here.” Zarus paused again.“I’ll get him to tell me where the kids are, and don’t worry, Kai, I’m not going to let him treat it like it’s some sort of training.” He added, and a small smile ghosted Kai’s lips as he nodded.He knew that Zarus was going to be helpful, there w

“What’s the meaning of all of this? Do you know how humiliated I was? He looked down at me! He insulted me, he told me I couldn’t do anything to him, he threatened me!” Nora’s breath came in ragged gasps.Her chest heaved with each breath she took, and she paced around her bedroom. They got home over two hours ago, and she had recovered as soon as she stepped out of the hall.Thankfully, while she was on the verge of passing out, Gina had wanted to use the restroom and she’d seen her lying on the floor. Gina had called for help, and even then, the people who came to help had made sure that her emergency didn’t disrupt the event.The fact that no one thought of her as someone important enough for them to actually care about had pissed her off, it had gotten her so mad that her stomach twisted with anger, but she couldn’t do anything.Nora was ushered out of the hall because according to the men, they didn’t want her to have another episode that might disrupt the fun people were having.

“I don’t doubt that you’re going to be a great father,” Lorenzo said, and both Fabio and Atticus were quick to agree with him. “This baby is going to be so loved!” Lorenzo was obviously happy about the fact that Kai was going to be a dad.When they first met, Kai had thought that Lorenzo had a hidden family, and he kept them hidden from public eyes because he didn’t want to expose them to danger, but he was wrong.He realized now that Lorenzo already saw Shadow as his kid, and that had prompted him to not want another child, but Shadow was now uncomfortable with the setting because he had a brewing love for Lorenzo.Shaking it out of his head, Kai thought to himself that he wouldn’t interfere until he was asked to. “It’s getting really late, we should all go to bed and we’ll talk about everything later tomorrow.”Kai waited to see that everyone agreed with him, and one after the other with Kai and Catherine going first, they all went to their various rooms.When Kai and Catherine were

“Oh my goodness, that was the most exhausting meeting I have had all my life.” Kai groaned as he sank into the couch in the living room, and Fabio couldn’t help but laugh and agree with him.They both sat down for a moment while the rest of the gang watched and waited for them to share their news, but Kai and Fabio both felt a strange sense of satisfaction from knowing that about six people were waiting for them to talk.“I know, tell me about it.” Fabio grunted. “And Katie wasn’t going to let us go, gosh, thank goodness you were able to evade all of her antics.” He added, and Kai only laughed.“I had to, or we were for sure going to spend our night there, and that would be bad.” Kai responded to his grandfather who was still laughing.The meeting had run for longer than they both expected, but it had yielded a positive result, and Kai knew that it was only going to be a matter of time before the mysterious family stopped being mysterious.His mind went back to Nora, and he wondered i

Kai didn’t need to hear any more than that, the fact that the people his grandfather wanted to introduce him to could be the people that can uncover this mystery once and for all was more than enough.Kai looked at Catherine, he had been waiting for the auction to end so that Catherine could finally go ahead with her original plan and tell him about the pregnancy, but it looked like he might have to wait again.“You should go,” Catherine said, her voice sounding unnaturally high, and Kai knew immediately that she was also nervous, she probably hadn’t even thought of how she was going to tell him yet.“I’ll be waiting for you, and besides, only god knows how long the after party is going to last. I feel like a lot of people might be here till tomorrow.” She laughed nervously as she chugged her water.Teresa’s lips tightened as she tried to hold herself back from bursting out in laughter. Lorenzo and Shadow both looked at Catherine as if she wasn’t really the one with them.But, every o

Nora’s body stiffened at once, her blood felt as though it had run dry, as her face went pale the moment that she made eye contact with Kai. Her jaw dropped, and she wanted to say something, but words failed her. Kai was the last person she expected to bump into after coming out of the restroom, she had just finished talking to the one person she actually trusted to help her take care of Kai. She had wanted to go back to her seat and enjoy as Kai plunged into a bottomless pit of despair, so how come he was standing in front of her with a smug smile on his face. He looked as though he knew what she was planning to do, almost as though he had been there for longer than she actually knew. Nora could hear her heart pounding so hard in her chest. She held her purse so tightly that her nails were digging into the leather as she finally cleared her throat. “What are you doing here? Did Catherine finally banish you to the regular section because she finally realized how useless you ar
