Elsie took her time to make them breakfast, she made something simple and tasty while the boys were out playing a fun game of football on the beach sand.While she was done with some basic chores and setting the table, she went outside and called them in to dine together.Sitting at the table, they all ate together like a happy family and the meal had never tasted any better.Afternoon began drawing in and Jayden had spent all his day playing with Caspian. He had not even noticed how fast the time had gone. Only after he checked his phone did he realize that it was heading towards afternoon.He had to go home and continue with his plotting to get the next phase of his plan ready.He was outside on the beach sand with Caspian making sand castles and playing with toys. He told the little boy he needed to talk to his mother for a minute before going inside.Arriving inside, he went to the kitchen where she was staying with her cup of coffee and he let out a soft sigh. "Hey," he said soft

"It is going to be the biggest wedding ever!!!" A bright blonde figure exclaimed excitedly. She was Jess, one of Olivia's close friends. She was putting on a very short blue dress that fell tiredly down her shoulders but hung tightly on her body. Her blonde hair was left to fall over her shoulders and her deep set of blue eyes were filled with so much excitement and joy. Her red plum lips were divided into a big bright smile and her expression in total was that of an overjoyed person. "I really cannot believe that your wedding is tonight! We have been postponing it for a very long time now and I was actually worried that it might never happen but now that I am here and helping you become so pretty, ah! My heart is about to explode with joy!" She exclaimed excitedly. Olivia could not help the smile that made its way to her face. She and Jess were very close and she enjoyed her company. " Okay now, tone down the excitement. If you are this excited then how excited do you expect me

He sat down on the steps which were worn and old, as the sky danced with pink and purple colors. Leaves shuffled and whispered across each other as a breeze moved along the trees and carried secrets he could not discern. With his elbows propped up by his knees, he hung his hands limp as he stared ahead, working hard to forget how Elsie stared right through him.She was back in his life again. And it all comes after such a long and silent period. It turned out that things happened differently than he’d hoped. He saw that the girl he was comfortable with, the energetic she-wolf who had always been by his side in summer, had become someone different now. Hardened. Guarded. Just like a person whose body has been repaired again and again.He shut his eyes and felt a cool breeze touching his skin. He could remember her voice which was always sharp and full of worry. His memory of it still shows her hands shaking softly when she claimed she was not attached to him. Because the war was on the

Jayden stood at the cliff's edge long after Rhea had gone. Ocean wind chilled his skin, but he barely noticed it. His mind stayed in the heat of Elsie's kiss, the tremble of her fingers across his cheek, the look in her eyes when he had turned to walk away. Guilt stuck to him like an inescapable drumbeat inside of his chest. He didn't like having to leave again. But staying? That was even more dangerous.He ran his black hair through his fingers and breathed slowly. There was always someone waiting. Always someone who would pursue him for shortcomings he had not even made. He could never quite catch his breath and think that the past was not behind him, closing in with every step.He climbed into his car, the motor coming to life in the quiet of the early morning. The road curled like a snake across the hills. Driving, he couldn't help but see the face of Caspian in his mind. The boy's questioning eyes, the ring of his laughter at seeing Jayden, and that

It was stifling night. Thick clouds passed slowly over the moon throwing creepy shadows in the deserted harbor. The wind was moaning among metal containers, rusted, and rickety fences. An ideal location of a secret prison. Jayden was on a metal rooftop and was wearing a full black outfit. He was covered with ash and dirt on the face, and his eyes were straight. He was no longer fugitive. He was a father and awakened soldier.Nova, Georgina and two of his best operatives hid in the vicinity with him. The old harbor-house lay like a sleeping monster below. A couple of windows were blinking with the lights and armed guards pacing circumspectively around.Jayden murmured, They will have him under ground. Viper would not take that chance by keeping Caspian anywhere close to the surface.”Georgina nodded. we go by the program. Noiselessly. Out. In case of everything wrong…Jayden said coolly, I will.They acted as shadows.Jayden crossed the path, climbing over fences through small cracks a
