"Hours turned into days, and days turned into a week," Liliana groaned rubbing her temples, "Where is she?"

"She? The one Dad has talked about?" Betty asked with a curious face, Liliana nodded her head, Betty shrugged her shoulders, "Maybe busy with hunting evil forces."

Liliana chuckled shaking her head, "Let's see...."

A week had passed already since the ashes of the old butler had been cleaned from the Christian's room and the heavy truth of betrayal settled in the hearts of the family.

The mansion remained tense, every creaking floorboard, even a flicker of candlelight now held suspicion.

Yet amidst the silence, the family stayed normal with a purpose, Lord Sargent’s letters had been sent, his allies summoned, and finally, she arrived just as they anticipated.

It was a normal morning like everyday when the gates slightly opened to admit a lone figure cloaked in a storm-colored robe, her face hidden beneath a hood.

She carried no baggage, no weapons visibly strapped to her per

    "Mom?" Christian once again called out, he isn't sure why he felt so familiar with the back of the person in front of him along with the humming of the person.She turned to see him, and it was her, his mother, Marie. Her face was calm but her eyes shimmered with something distant, something sorrowful, as she reached out."Chris, my little star."His breath caught in his throat listening to her voice, especially the way she called him just like how she used to do when he was young, "I... I don’t understand, is this real? Is it really you?" "No," she said gently. "But it is the truth, the truth I want you to know through a fragment of my memory." "Can I hug you?" Christian asked in a desparate tone wanting to hold his mother, "I want to touch you, I want to feel your warmth." Marie's eyes became glossy as she replied, "I'm just a memory Chris, you can't touch me." Christian's smile and hope both faltered at a time, but she assured him, "Soon I'll touch you and hug you, that day wi

    "Time for practice, prince," Ezra's voice made Christian to stir in sleep, but he groaned, "Leave me alone Ezra, I want to sleep some more time."Ezra leaned closer and whispered in Christian's ear, "It's not me who'll tolerate you just because you're adorable, it's Ms. Thalia, known as hell queen, can you handle her wrath when she finds you're disobedient like this?" With a sigh, Christian sat up on the bed, Ezra chuckled at Christian's pout, but didn't say anything just laughing while watching Christian getting out of the bed and walking while muttering in anger.The sun was barely awake when Christian stumbled onto the training grounds, rubbing his eyes and yawning so hard his jaw cracked. "Not even woken up from sleep, but I'm forced to wake up, why?" Christian complained looking at the sky, Ezra shrugged his shoulders, "Why don't you question her rather than me?" Christian just rolled his eyes, and his muscles still ached from yesterday’s chaos, the memory, the visions, the tr

  • The Lost Heir Of Sargent   BRING IT ON

    "Chris..."His name from Thalia made him immediately concentrate on the puzzles and riddles, though some of those puzzles seemed like an alien language in the beginning, but somehow, he managed to solve them in the end.Glancing at him carefully, Thalia asked, "Are you curious about this language and signs?" "Yes," Christian nodded his head, "Actually I never learnt this language, neither I heard nor witnessed these signs before, then how come I understand very easily as if I learned these for so long?" Thalia chuckled looking at Christian's curiousity and felt inwardly, "After he is still a child, no matter how powerful he is or something, still the heart of a child is pure and naive, how am I going to turn this pure child into a ruthless and strong man? If he isn't ruthless enough, the others will look down on him and takes advantage of him and his powers, at the sametime the change doesn't come overnight, maybe I should be patient around him." "I'll tell you," She gently caresse

    "Hey... Hey..." Ezra sighed looking at Christian who is lying on bed, "It's not even afternoon, are you sure about sleeping?" Christian glared at him, "Are you even sure about asking me?" "Huh?" "In the name of training, I got bullied there, as if that isn't enough, you and your commentary from behind," Christian gritted his teeth, "Even after three hours of shower, the dirt in my body didn't leave as if I took a mudbath, I'm tired as hell, can't you see my condition?" Ezra didn't argue, just scratched his head with an awkward smile.Closing his eyes, Christian said, "I want to sleep, please don't disturb me." With a silent hum, Ezra left from there, and for Christian, it didn't took much of time for him to fall asleep, within no time, he was pulled into a deep slumber.For hours, he slept peacefully totally forgetting the time.In his deep sleep, he stood at the foot of the massive gate, its wrought-iron bars stretching far above him, disappearing into a sky that was unnaturally

    "Okay then, I'll make it fast," Christian said walking into the bathroom to get freshen up.To wait for Christian, Luna went downstairs, and found Amelia sitting there already, with a smile, she sat comfortably on the living room sofa, absently swinging her legs as she waited for Christian to come downstairs. Across from her, Amelia sat with a warm smile, knitting something soft and blue between her fingers."So, did he wake up?" Amelia asked with a smile, Luna nodded her head, "Yes, Mrs. Sargent, he woke up." Amelia sighed at the formal way of calling by Luna, "What Mrs. Sargent? Call me grandma, you're Christian's friend, which means granddaughter to me also, so don't be formal with me." "Grandma," Luna called her with a lot of hesitation, Amelia smiled at her, "Exactly, call me like that only." Luna nodded her head with a gentle smile."What about Chris? Is he still getting ready?" Amelia asked looking towards the stairs, Luna nodded her head, "Yeah, he said he'll be freshen u

  • The Lost Heir Of Sargent   I NEVER NEEDED HIM!

    "I hate you," Mia snapped at Christian foolishly without even understanding what exactly Christian has done, more importantly why exactly he did it, "you deserve that slap."She raised her hand once again to slap Christian to ease her anger, but her hand was pushed away, and a loud, sharp slap cracked through the room.Mia stumbled back, clutching her burning cheek, staring at Luna in utter shock, because it was Luna who reacted to the earlier slap instead of Christian."You dare lay your hands on me?" Mia stared at her in disbelief, "You... How can you a lowlife bitch dare too...." "I should have done it long ago!" Luna shouted, trembling with anger because of the pain in Christian's eyes, "How dare you hurt my Chris like this? All he's ever done is show you kindness, and you repay him with betrayal and poison! Rather than going in his way letting you to be devoured by these predators, he stepped in to save your dignity today, but what exactly did you do? You neither understood his

    "You owe me, you owe me forever," Mia screamed aloud from behind, "You've to be grateful for me forever." But Christian no longer wants to entertain her nonsense.The heavy door slammed behind them, muffling Mia’s shrill screams.Christian strode ahead without a word, his hand still wrapped tightly around Luna’s, his pace fast and furious. His shoulders were rigid, his jaw clenched so tightly that the vein in his neck pulsed visibly.Luna followed without protest, sensing the storm raging inside him.She stumbled in one place because of his fast walking, as he turned back, she smiled awkwardly, understanding that he needs to slow down, silently he slowed his pace for her.Noticing his slow pace, Luna smiled inwardly, "Oww! My kind Chris! If you're this kind and sweet, who'll not fall for you? I don't understand why that annoying bitch couldn't see this side of yours, if it's me who got all that care and attention from you the same way she got, I could've cherished you forever in my

  • The Lost Heir Of Sargent   IT'S TIME!

    "Do what?" Christian laughed, glancing over at Luna with one eyebrow arched in amusement.Luna folded her arms, pouting dramatically as Christian acting as if he didn't understand what she is trying to say, "Don’t act innocent now, Chris… You know what I mean, don't you?" He leaned back against the car seat, arms resting on the steering wheel, "You'll have to be a little more specific, miss drama queen, only then I'll be able to understand."She gasped, feigning hurt, "Drama queen? Is that how you treat the woman who just saved you from a raging hurricane disguised as a human girl?"Christian chuckled, tilting his head slightly. "You mean Mia?"Luna grinned, moving closer to him, "That’s right, I stood by your side and endured her shrieking, so now you're indebted to me." He raised a brow teasing her. "What? Indebted? Do you want a medal? Gold or silver?""Nope," she said, popping the ‘p’. Then, with a playful twinkle in her eyes, she added, "I want ramen." Christian blinked with

  • ISN'T IT FAMILIAR TO YOU?

    "I didn't mean that," Liliana shook her head. "They've tried everything, every physician, alchemist, enchanter, and healer, worth their name, but they couldn't even find out what's wrong with her."Christian was surprised to hear that, and immediately, he remembered about his uncle, "Wait... What about uncle Charles? He is named as a miracle doctor who can save anyone, even a dying person can be saved by uncle, why didn't he try to help her? Do we have any issues with them?" "No, Chris," Liliana gently placed her hand on Christian's hand, "Both of our families are so close to each other for decades, in fact Rosaline is a very good person, she even saved my life once, out of that gratitude, I took Charles to their home hoping he can help her, even Charles attempted to heal her for me." Christian straightened with an anxious face. "And?" "He failed." Her voice was quiet now, threaded with frustration. Christian looked surprised after hearing to Liliana, as far as he heard everyone p

  • WHERE IS SHE NOW?

    "Where are you going at this hour?" Ezra asked, looking at Christian who is walking out, Christian said calmly, "Ummm... I'm going to the library...." Ezra scratched his head with a clueless face, "Library? At this hour? Are you crazy?" "No, I'm not," Christian said turning on the torch in his mobile, "I couldn't sleep, so I can't just lie down and do nothing, so I want to take a walk, rather than going here and there, I just want to the manor library to find books related to Valemire family." Ezra couldn't say no to Christian, so silently followed behind.Christian slowly made his way towards the manor library without making a sound, as he doesn't want to disturb anyone late in that night."Did you ever went to that library?" Ezra asked, Christian shook his head, "No, I just got to know directions to that library through James, but this is the first time, I'm going there...." Ezra hummed, "So, you knew nothing about this library?" "No, do you know anything?" Christian asked with

  • YOU THINK SOMEONE DID?

    "Chris," Amelia gently tapped on Christian's hand, "Are you okay? Why did you keep your face like that? Still thinking about your grandfather's words?" Christian mumbled out of hesitation, "I'm scared... I'm worried too, that I might not be able to keep up with the expectations you all have on me, what if I failed? What if I...." "You're thinking too much, Chrissy," Liliana laughed, as she couldn't handle the serious look on Christian's face, "Do you even know what Charles had done when Ed has asked him to handle a meeting with foreign delegates?" Christian looked curious to know, Liliana shared the rest of the story, "Ed gave all the details but this man messed up, he read out something else rather than the he is supposed to discuss, he spoke about financial report as if they're in the company as an auditor, what should we do with this guy?" Everyone burst into laughter including Christian, Betty said, "Even Ed was nervous, because he is supposed to work under Lord Sargent, the g

  • THAT'S VERY DIPLOMATIC!

    "So, what are you planning to do now?" Ezra asked, tilting his head in genuine curiosity as Christian stood by the window, eyes fixed on the pale morning sky.Christian rolled his eyes so hard he nearly saw his brain. "Salsa dance, wanna join? Maybe I think, you're already an expert..." Ezra snorted, laughter bubbling up. "What a sarcastic guy! Just like his mother."Christian spun around, with a sarcastic tone, "My mom would be proud of me. You know, she loved a good twirl while we played around, and guess what, when I saw her fight, she twirled in the same way sealing that gate, and dodging shadow beasts, my mom is good at everything." Ezra flopped onto a nearby armchair, one of the fluffiest in the room, and folded his arms. "You’re practically a fountain of levity this morning." Christian raised an eyebrow. "Levity? I was thinking more along the lines of a snark tornado, but yes, levity works." He paced, calmly looking around, "Maybe I could start by writing a strongly worded

  • IS THAT WHY YOU DISAPPEAR SOMETIMES?

    "Why is even normal sleep became hard for me to afford?" Christian hadn’t slept at all. "Arghhh, why are these nightmares haunting me, why couldn't I even get some proper sleep?" After the dream, or illusion, or whatever it was, he’d stayed curled beneath the blankets, eyes wide open, listening to the tick of the old wall clock and the distant creaks of the manor settling in the cold night. "At this moment with lack of sleep, I might even turn into a zombie," He sighed within himself, "Turning into a zombie with no sleep and stress must be just a matter of time, I can really feel it." The image of the chained beast behind the gate kept playing behind his eyes, the way it had looked at him, spoken into his mind.'My key.'Even now, hours later, the words haunted him like a curse.Though he isn't sure whether it is that beast that spoke to him or not, but deep inside his consciousness, he could feel that it's none other than that beast which spoke to him."Ezra, I'm waiting for you,

  • MY KEY

    "Do you think it's okay?""Of course, it is okay...." "Aren't we here on that purpose only?" "Did you even check whether he is asleep or not?" "My enchanting voice can make anyone fall asleep in seconds..." The voices came from the golden light particles that surrounded Christian while he was in his deep sleep."We have to keep our promise which we made to Marie." "He is asleep, let us show the truth through his dream." Strange voices reached his ears but he still couldn't understand what exactly it was, as he was already enveloped in deep slumber.The world around Christian twisted like wet paint swirling in water. One second he was lying in bed, and the next, he stood in the middle of a vast courtyard that felt like it had been pulled from another timeline.The sky above was the color of fresh blood, deep red streaks smeared across black clouds. The ash rained softly like snow. The air was thick, and suffocating, nothing giving familiar vibes apart from creating goosebumps
