Nathan took Rachel back to his house. He was not going to waste time at the Martins Mansion, knowing that they would not be nice to her there. He wanted to make sure that there was no chance for them to make her feel sad. 

Nathan had devised a plan, knowing that no one in Caldor would know who he was they would think of him as another individual who would want to take advantage of the whole situation. 

“They think I came to be wealthy like the other showoffs there? I came for someone important and I have taken her.” Nathan said to himself as he walked out of the Martins house not trying to look back. 

Rachel was confused, she didn't know why Nathan was even trying to take her home like that even when he knew that she was deformed. 

‘It is oddly suspicious that there is something he is not telling everyone. It feels like he was only trying to make it look like he was some kind of big shot that would be able to handle anything that would come.’ Rachel was looking at Nathan as she tried to find out what it was he was thinking. 

Nathan turned back to see Rachel looking at him with a glare that would be enough to kill a man. 

“Is there a problem?” Nathan asked trying to find out what it was that made Rachel look at him like that. 

“I know you think taking me home like this would increase what my family would give you, but then you will be doing a good job.” Rachel mocked Nathan. It was like she wanted to find out what Nathan was planning to do so she could find a way and make sure that he would expose himself to her. 

Nathan was looking at Rachel and he was shocked to see that she thought he had other plans with her. 

“I am not trying to do anything like that, I am only trying to make sure that you are okay.” Nathan was looking at Rachel, he was shocked that she thought he was trying to get the reward only and nothing more. 

‘Well I am not surprised that she thinks that I am trying to use her to get her family’s money but then why in the world is she saying it here?’ 

Nathan was looking at Rachel, he took a deep breath and he knew that there was no way he would be able to walk away with her if he didn't tell her what he had in mind. 

“Rachel, I plan to make things turn around for you and not take advantage of you. I would never think of hurting you, I only want what's best for you.” Nathan was looking at Rachel, he didn't want to make her feel like he was going to take advantage of her. 

“How in the world do you plan to do that? You are not going to be able to stand in front of me when you see what is beneath my dress,” Rachel sounded a bit defeated when she said that. 

Nathan noticed but then he didn't say anything to make her feel hurt, he went close to Rachel. He placed his hand on her shoulder, he kept his eyes on her. 

Rachel looked at Nathan and she was a bit confused about what he was trying to do there. 

“Rachel, I want to make sure that there is no way for anyone to hurt you ever again, I will also make sure that they will stay far away from you. I will make you the happiest woman in the world.” 

Nathan was looking at Rachel with a smile on his face, he knew that she would be confused when she heard what he was trying to say. 

“How?! I am asking you how you plan to do that?! My face and my body are deformed yet you say that you are going to make me the happiest woman on earth, how blind can you be?!” Rachel was looking at Nathan. 

Nathan smiled a bit, he took her by the hand. “I just want you to work with me on this one, I will take care of everything and you will not have a problem,” 

Nathan began walking with Rachel to a room, once they entered the room Rachel could see that it was filled with different things. 

The room was covered in white and blue paint, it had a beautiful spot. It looked like a clinic but then it was a bit strange that Nathan had something in his house. 

“What are we going to do here?” Rachel asked, looking around the room. She was a bit confused. 

Nathan brought out a box, opened it, and inside were medical equipment and things that looked like they came from the other side of Caldor, there were hair-thin needles used in acupuncture. 

“Rachel I need you to trust me,” Nathan stretched out his hand, looking at Rachel trying to see what she would do. 

Rachel was looking at Nathan and she was not sure what he would do to her but then there was something about him that was calling her and it was a bit calming for her. 

‘Why does he feel so calm and welcoming? This is not like anything I have felt around anyone before.’ Rachel was looking at Nathan, he was not sure what it was that would even make it look like he was someone different.

“What are you going to do if you see how bad it is beneath the dress?” Rachel was looking at Nathan, she wanted to know what he was going to say. 

Nathan was looking at Rachel, he was not sure why she was asking him that question but then he knew there was no way he would do anything different. 

“I will still like you regardless. I know you are a good lady. Your family is just one messed-up bunch.” Nathan walked to a table in the room, he arranged it. 

“Now come on, I have a surprise for you.” Nathan smiled as he waited for Rachel to come to him. 

Rachel was looking at Nathan and all she could see was a man who would not change his word easily. 

‘Just who is he?’

    Rachel was staying with Elena so she would be able to look after her, so nothing would hurt her, while Carl and the others were not going to have a problem. Still, with Rachel there, it meant that they were going to have a problem, and it was not something that anyone would want even to put on their mind at the moment. “I dont think you should be doing this, I dont need you to keep yourself in danger because of me.” She was looking at Elena; she knew what it was going to bring for her if she remained at the spot for another day, what it was going to bring her, and how it was going to be one of the worst things. “I dont know why you are worried about this. I am going to be fine, and you need to be calm for now. We have no idea who it might be that would want to hurt you like this, but till then, I would love it if you were not so worried about me.” Elena smiled. She knew what Rachel was trying to do and how she was not about to let her do something that would hurt them. “Besides, I

    Loid, Steven, and Carl had managed to keep the attacks on Rachel to a minimum, knowing that they wouldn't be able to contain them if anything were to happen to her. However, they also knew that Nathan wouldn't be happy if he came back to learn that something like that had happened to her. It would break him; they were trying to see if they would get a lead on how it was possible for someone to even get this close to her. “I have traced everything back, and from what I see, it shows that the person has access, but not that only whoever this is, someone who knows how to use his control to the max.” Carl was devasted, he was given one job and that was to make sure that she wasnt going to get hurt but it wasnt going to be easy now knowing that there was a huge target on her back and no matter what he would do there would always be one and it was not going to stop following her until they were sure nothing could stop it. Loid was looking for loopholes. He had not seen anything that wou

    The attacks in Caldor were getting more frequent, and they were circling one person, it was Nathan’s wife to be… They were trying to kill her, and it wasn’t an attack that would take her down; they were trying to draw Nathan off. And it was stronger than before; it was about to get even wilder with the way things were heading. Elena was doing a good job of keeping them far away; it wouldn't be easy for anything to happen. They were trying to get something down, but with each attack, they got closer to Rachel, trying to hurt her, but the people protecting her. “This isn't going to be easy for any of us, but if she is exposed, then we would not be able to do anything to stop what was going on.” Carl was looking at Steven, they were not about to get things to get down. “They aren't going to be stopping anytime soon, and you know if there is anything else you, it is the fact that they dont even care what comes in their way unless they are sure that they get her down.” He was still

    ‘Things aren't what they seem…’ Nathan was trying to get something, and it wasn't something anyone would want to mess up. He was trying to get his hands on any information that would allow him to get hold of the Court of Wistoria, but nothing was leading him back to what he wanted to learn.He had stumbled on something more intense than he knew, but it wasn't all he was meant to find. Liu, on the other hand, was trying to keep something on his mind, but helping Nathan, and he was trying to keep things in order by helping the Masked General, and there wasn't anything he could do to make Nathan calm down for a while. “You know, these people stay so under the radar it's hard for anyone to sniff them out.” Liu was looking at the table of files; everything was pointing to something a bit off and not even on the radar of the things they would see. “That is why I think that they aren't that hidden from us, but we are the ones who would fight to ignore them.” Nathan was looking at it; he

    Cylus had told Nathan everything he needed to know about the Specters, but then there was one thing bubbling around that he couldn't help Nathan unravel easily, and it seemed to be the only thing both of them couldn't get their fingers out of. A word that appeared in every text they researched on, it was an odd text, but it didnt look like something anyone would see. ‘Wistoria…The Court Of Wistoria!’ Nathan and Cylus were looking at the text, but there was nothing they would be able to do on a normal whim. It was not going to be easy. “This Court, from what we are seeing here, looks like a club of power-hungry men who want to take over the continent. It isn't going to be something we could do regularly, you know.” Nathan was looking at Cylus, and he knew that it was going to be something even both of them couldn't tackle. “I have heard of them; they are the ones in control, and you know what makes it a bit scary?” Cylus was looking at Nathan. He handed him a scroll, looking him

    Zauf…“Even if it was to bring down the whole of Hondura, it shouldn’t be a problem if they were out of the way, but!” Sirus was looking at the floor. He was with his teammates. Since they managed to lose one of them to Nathan, none of them wanted to risk even going close to Caldor or the North like that. “I don’t know why, but I feel like we are meant to be trying to get whoever it was that wanted to kill them on our side.” One of them said, his voice was detached from the place they were standing. It was not like he was happy to hear that they were going to be dealing with. “That would be one of the best things to do, but I would love to let you know that if something like this were to happen, then it would mean we are going to be battling with something that could potentially be our end.” They were now bickering. Sirus kept quiet, trying to get his head in the game, trying to see who it was that would even think that far to kill Nathan and Cylus like that. “It isn't somethin
