“Promise me you’ll be careful?” Kai said, holding Catherine by her waist as he pulled her so close to her that her boobs were pressed up against his chest.“And if Teresa ever tries to make you do something that’s not in the plan, or if something comes up, promise me you’re going to contact me immediately.” He added, he wasn’t all that worried.He trusted her, that much was clear, but he also wouldn’t be far off from her due to the side mission that he came up with, but he still wanted her to promise her that she would do everything in her power to be safe.The last thing he wanted was to have something happen to her, and she was in such a delicate situation that if he had his way, he would have preferred her staying at home.He’d heard a lot of things happening to women during their pregnancy stage, and he wanted to take good care of Catherine, he wanted to pamper her and make sure she had everything she needed, but she had insisted.And part of the reason he had agreed to let her go

“I still can’t believe that they dedicated a whole island—and that too, a remote island, no one would ever be able to figure out there’s a place like this out there—for their evil agenda.” Teresa spat.Her and Catherine had scouted as much as they could, and she knew that they wouldn’t be able to go any further without the security figuring out that they were there.“I know,” Catherine responded as she instinctively touched her stomach, she had been disgusted by the thought of it from the very moment that she heard about it.She wanted nothing more than to make sure that this place ceases to exist, but just like Kai had said, she also needed to be careful and they needed to do things discreetly.“What are you doing?” She asked when she saw that Teresa was drawing what looked like a magic circle on the grass, it was perfect too.“We can’t get in, but that’s not true for Kai and Zarus, and quite frankly, I know that they’re bearing it in mind that they would have to carry out most of th

Kai didn’t say anything to Teresa immediately, but he made up his mind to supply Catherine with whatever it was that she might need.The thought of the baby draining her, caused a pang of guilt to flash through his mind. If he had been more careful then maybe she wouldn’t have been pregnant and the baby wouldn’t have been draining her life force.He thought of everything else he could do to make this period more easy for her, and he couldn’t help but blame himself for putting her in that situation.“She loves keeping the baby, she wants to give birth to it.” Teresa’s voice jolted him out of his thoughts, and he only stared blankly at her. “I’m saying you shouldn’t blame yourself for being so irresponsible and impregnating her.” Teresa added, and Kai grunted, not missing the side note of insult.“You really had to call me irresponsible?” He asked as he laughed, they’d already continued their walk, and Teresa laughed too.“I guess I shouldn’t have done that, you’re both adults, and you

Turning on the bed, Catherine grunted, she expected to feel Kai next to her, but when she didn’t feel him, she slowly opened her eyes. Her body felt weaker than ever, she had noticed this happening a lot lately.Whenever she takes a nap or falls asleep, she wakes up feeling as if she had spent the entire time working hard. There wasn’t an ache, but there was evident tiredness that made her feel weak to her limb.“Kai?” She called as she tried to help herself up. She had asked Teresa about how she felt, and Teresa had told her that it was probably normal pregnancy fatigue, but she knew it was more than that.When Teresa suggested going to the hospital, she objected immediately, and lied that she was fine. Catherine knew that if she went to the hospital, Kai would definitely know, and she didn’t want to tell him about how she felt.She was sure that if he knew, he would do everything he could to make her sit the mission out, and she didn’t want to. She wanted to see it all through to th

The car in the house suddenly became different, snapping as Atticus and Lilith stared at each other as if they were sworn enemies. “You know, I’m the happiest person on earth to know you’re still alive, Atticus.” Lilith said again. Atticus looked as though he was secretly begging the ground to open up and swallow him. Lorenzo and Kai could feel the tension in the air, and Kai didn’t want to intervene, but Atticus was giving him a look. Kai hadn’t expected that Lilith and Atticus knew each other, but if Atticus and his grandfather had been friends for so long, then there was no doubt that Atticus knew Lilith. Sighing, Kai tried to move forward and say something, but the man that had accompanied Lilith held his arm back, pulling him backwards while telling Lorenzo to move away from those two. The tension was so thick that if anyone other than them stepped into the living room, there was a chance that they wouldn’t be able to breathe. Before Kai could try to register what was going
