“Everything is perfect, and there’s no cause for alarm.” The doctor said after the test results came out, Kai went through everyone as though he understood medical terms.He had learnt to be able to not only read doctor’s handwriting, but to also be able to tell the results by going through them because of how sickly he and Nora were when they were growing up.He’d learnt to be able to tell if Nora’s condition needed immediate attention, and right now, he knew that the only attention she needed was one they could no longer afford.Kai knew how carefully Catherine had been watching him, but he still didn’t tell her that whatever had come to attack the house had done that in Nora’s body.He hadn’t expected that Nora’s condition would be that bad, but she called it upon herself when she allied with an entity she knew absolutely nothing about.“Kai?” Catherine’s voice jolted him out of his thoughts, but he didn’t act as though he’d been lost in thought as he only calmly turned to face her

“We’ve kept you here for well over a month, and trust me, even if Kai allows it, I’m not letting you go unless I know what I need to know.” Atticus said as he pulled a chair out and sat on it, facing Rebecca.Rebecca‘s gaze lifted as she looked him in the eye, but only for a second. She hated that she was here, she hated the fact that she didn’t know what time it was, she hated the fact that Kai was powerful enough to keep her like this.If this man says it’s been over a month since she’s been here, does that mean that her deadline was over and the mysterious family already killed her family.The thought of it made her stomach twist, her chest tightened and even though she didn’t want to feel so bad about it, she couldn’t help it.Nora had always hated, but Nora had tried to break her out of that prison, her luck was just too rotten and so she had fallen behind.“If you’re thinking about your family, well, I know you already know what has happened to them.” Atticus said, his voice so

Kai looked behind him because he knew that it wasn’t him that Jake had dared to call ‘brother’ but he didn’t say Abi thing as he just smirked and pulled Catherine even closer into him.It was a reflex act, he knew that she didn’t need any help or protection, but he couldn’t help it. “Hi, Jake. I almost didn’t see you there.” He said, the taunt evident in his voice.Kai could see the anger in Jake’s eyes, and when he saw that Jake didn’t react violently, he knew for sure that Jake was still putting up with his good brother act afterall.He couldn’t help but wonder how long Jake can go without breaking character, but he knew now that Jake would go as long as he needed as long as he got whatever he wanted out of it.Kai shook his head, he had done some digging and even though Lorenzo and Shadow are yet to find out the person Jake is really working for, Kai knew that Jake, as usual, was up to no good.“You, bas—” Jake stopped himself before he could call Kai a bastard. He needed to keep u

“”WHAT?!” Jake yelled before he realized that they were in a hospital and he needed to keep his voice low, but even then it was still difficult for him to maintain his low voice.“Thirty thousand dollars? That’s a lot more than I expected.” Jake said, his composure slipping through his fingers even though he was trying to keep a level head.“What did she do? Fight a dinosaur? Even then, we wouldn’t spend this ridiculous amount of money!” Jake was losing it, his mind was reeling and he could barely keep his inside thoughts inside.He knew that he probably shouldn’t be saying things like that, he shouldn’t be letting himself get out of control like that, but he couldn’t help it.The doctor that was standing in front of him looked frightened because she had no idea how close he was to hitting her, although she’d made up her mind that he wouldn’t get away with it if he ever tried that.“Mr Benson—”“Is this some sort of scheme?” Jake questioned before the doctor could even say anything. “

Jake didn’t say anything as he only smiled back at Lila before turning around and making his way out of Nora’s bedroom. She could die for all he cared, but she and the rest of her sisters were still his ticket against the mysterious family.Closing the door behind him, a small smile ghosted his face as he made his way to the privacy of his own bedroom with the thought of telling his connection that they found Nora already.He hadn’t fully settled into his bedroom when his phone vibrated in his pants pocket, Jake wasted no time retrieving the phone and picking up the call.It was an unknown number, but he knew who it was. “Did you find her?” The voice was mechanical, and Jake couldn’t tell whether it was a man or a woman on the phone.But he’d gotten enough phone calls to guess that it was likely to be a man, the egotistical person on the other end of the phone pisses him off way more than he cared to admit.“Yes.” Jake replied, locking the door behind him and sinking into his bed. “Bu

“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
