Juliana paused and looked down at her finger. The ordinary ring which Kane used to propose to her years ago was still there. No glitters. No sclints. Just subtle silver foil.

“I want that back.” Kane said, his voice calm but firm. His expression was cold and unreadable.

Juliana froze. Kane had come all the way at that dead hour of the night to collect an ordinary ring? She didn't remember it, she could have pulled the ring and tossed it in the trash.

Though Kane bought the ring for just $400 but it wasn't about the cost. What made the ring worthy was the effort, the sweats that dropped from his body before he could buy it.

He could afford millions of the same ring now and even buy one that is far more better than it. But someone like Juliana don't deserve his efforts. Not anymore.

A cruel amusing smile split Juliana's face before she burst into a wave of laughter, her cheek flushing red as the laughter rang with no end in sight, bouncing off the wall.

    **************** Benjamin paddled of the water, sea predators paving way for him as though he emitted a far deadly aura. Immediately his bare feet kissed the coast, the crisp breeze felt odd. He paused, looking around with a narrowed eyes in confusion. Behind him, the ocean crashed over and over in high waves, buffering ships. The distance shout of; "Aye caption" from about 1000km could be heard by him, despite the sea storm even. Water retained in his cloth, soggy, dripping from his body. He looked at his body, blood blot spread from the shred part, telling stories he couldn't comprehend. "Where am I?" He rasped, shifting his eyes to the heavens where stars littered, and then to the unsettling sea. His eyes furrowed knowingly. "Earth..." He muttered. "I reincarnated to earth after 10 thousand years of my non-existence...." He paused, exhaling sharply. Gently, he turned to the turbulence ocean, and then lifted his hand mid-air as he focused on the churning water. "I, Arafel, t

    "Where am I?" Benjamin rasped, talking normally under water without choking on his breath as any normal human would have.He swam out of the water, sea predators parting way for him as though they sensed a more dangerous Aura around him.Immediately his feet touched the shore, the night air was strange on his body. His cloth clung to his skin, soggy, dripping retained water.Benjamin looked at his body strangely. Blood blotted, telling stories of an attack he wasn't aware about. "Where I'm I," He toned, still assessing his body. "Did I just reincarnate into a human body?! Earth...." His voice caught under his breath.He shifted his look to the disturbing ocean, and he lifted his one arm mid-air. "Water," He mumbled, his eyes locked on the crashing turbulence which buffeted ships. "It worships me in Elyndra..." His voice grew firm and commanding as he focused on the crashing ocean waves. "...as the supreme Lord of Elyndra, I command you to stop!" Nothing happened. The ocean rolled

    Beep. beep. beep...The continuous sound of survival rippled thru the otherwise quiet room. The wall was painted white, the temperature cool and cozy, making the ambience relaxing.The room was both a mix of exclusivity and professionalism.At the corner of the room stood a bed with a man laying on it, unconscious, his body clad in white sheet. A tube snaked to his arm, passing in blood. His legs had been wrapped with a bandage. Clean and concise.Amos Voss.Amos' finger twitched at the side, then his eyes gently fluttered open. He squeezed them shut as the rays from the roof was blinding.He opened his eyes again, and his gaze met with white roof, the smell of antiseptic hit his nose. His activeness kicked it.

He muttered, his thoughts spiralling.He pushed himself up from the bed, looking around the strange room to make sense of h

    ************ Benjamin swallowed hard. Director Jack's words were clear. This was a threat. Betray him the job or die! He believed there won't be betrayal. He'd never get affectionate with any woman, and it won't happen at the expense of his life. He only uses women and jumped to the next. Even though he had no dime, his handsome look was his charm on them. Deal of no love— that was it. He didn't understand why. But the price was tempting. "30,000 per week." Director Jack had said. Benjamin knew that there was no going back. He needed the money. He just needed it. He'd spent nine years in prison after he set up while shifting hard drugs. This was freedom. Another good chance to have his dormant account breathing again. "You're living another life now. Not that ex- convict. Not as the poor Benjamin. You're now someone much more," He Said. "You're the rich charming dude. Everything will be taken care of for this mission; Apartment, essembles, everything needed to make your job wo
