But of course, it was mostly about him. And even though he knew that in his bones, it was hard to say out loud. He did not want to ruin the moment, he did not want everything cascading into an argument about everything being about him or not. Even though he knew that it was.His stomach tightened up in knots as he thought about this, being all his fault. She had to leave her parents' comfortable house, just for him, and yet, he was able to make her sad for it. The words were a poor bitter taste in his mouth. How could he have let that happen?The thoughts in his head were shattered by Jenny's words. "So, tell me about this Elena?" She asked as as she went away to the kitchen. Isaiah felt himself go read, his head in his mind, had grown inflated, about to burst and release all the hot air that had been stored in it."I am very curious about the nature of your relationship" she continued. "She seems like a very strange woman. I never thought that you'd know such a person."Isaiah fel

The taxi was already moving when Isaiah gave in to his friends' advise. "Taxi, I'll be alighting here too. Please," he added, appealing to the better spirits of the man on wheels."With a grunt the driver stopped the vehicle at its tracks. "Thank you," Isaiah said, rushing down the car and bidding his friends bye before trailing down the path Jenny had already gone past. Jenny was quite far already down the street, her body lingering in the cold mid day wind, blowing from side to side. For a second Isaiah contemplated if it was a good idea to pursue her. She had already told him that she needed time alone. But still, his conscience would not let him rest if he did not try to give it another shot. Of course it were his friends that nudged him at first, but now he had taken it upon himself as a duty to go after her, and it would not leave his chest if he did not do as he was feeling.He watched her walk down the street, flaying left and right like a wild flower, dancing to whatever di
Chapter 276
It was something close to midday when Isaiah and his friends managed to get a taxi to move. It was especially odd for Luke since it seemed as if he had seen this particular time before, and everything playing in front of him was the same as before. He was caught between Jackson—whose eyes were caught at the window, looking as all the trees and houses passed by like they were the ones moving—and Isaiah, who was in turn caught between him and Jenny, who had not said a single word ever since she got in the car. She was, just like Luke, staring at the objects outside of the car as they moved.Isaiah was silent, looking forward, at least until he was nudged on the side by an elbow by Luke. "What?" He asked, his voice a whisper."You know what," Luke said in a hush. "Don't just sit there looking forward like nothing happened. Talk to her. She has not been in a good mood ever since, and it would be wrong if you just ignored her."Isaiah heaved a sigh. "I've been thinking about it too," he
Chapter 275
The sound of a stream running over pebbles and rocks filled the air as Elena stared at the early morning sky with a smile on her face as she patted the head of one of the bear cubs around her. "Not so bad, is it, Kate?" Elena asked, legs crossed on each other, as she sat on the pebbles of the riverbank.Kate nodded her head, standing over the water, as still as a statue, holding a wooden spear with a blade-shaped stone fastened over it. She made a strike, launching the spear into the water. It pierced into a couple of fish, staining the clear water with red blood.The fishes dangled on the spear even though they had just been pierced right through. Kate asked in her mind if the fishes even felt pain at all, seeing that they seemed not to demonstrate any such thing.She walked over to Elena and placed the kill right before her before falling down on her knees right on the pebbles."Are we going to stay here, my lady?" Kate asked. Elena wrinkled her nose. "No, of course not. I can't s

"We will be leaving all four of you for now," Nero said to Isaiah, watching him incase he flinched, in order to see what he was going to do. "But we will not be leaving you alone. That's too much of a danger we are not willing to afford.""Does that mean what I think it means?" Isaiah asked. "If what you think it means is that we will be keeping a close watch on you, then yes," Nero said. "Yes. You are a lead to us capturing Elena. We will not let you go that easily."Isaiah said nothing but clench his jaws. That was a gesture to show how much he did not care for it, but still did not agree with it.Nero walked up to him and patted him on his shoulder. "You, boyo," he said, "must be good. You might have been left off the hook due to the technicalities of our justice system, but that does not give you the right to do whatever you want. For all I am sure of, if for some reason you are bought back to that stand, you will be not leaving with your head intact. You hear me, boy?"Isaiah ke

Nero turned to the trio of Isaiah's friends. "You've heard your friend," he said, hands behind his back as he spoke sharply, his voice hoarse. "You will have to make your choice. And make it fast. Because we don't have much time to waste here. Do you intend that we wipe away your memories of everything you know about the state of affairs in the world of magic, or do you want to live with those memories? Remember that each choice you make is not made in a vacuum. There are repercussions for everything."The trio were quiet In the first few seconds after hearing the question. Luke was sure he wanted to remember. Jenny was curious about the repercussions but she knew that if there was a choice to be made, she would choose remembering it all over not remembering.It was not so straight for Jackson."What are these repercussions?" He asked, planting his feet on the ground eagerly like he was ready for a fight. Even though he was the least athletic person among them, close to Jenny, Nero wo
