A Dagger Through His Hand

Jayden had not expected such a thing to happen, he had just a breath to react to a dagger flying straight at his face. Nothing came to his mind at that moment, he did not even have the time to create a thought.

But the second the dagger neared his face, his instincts kicked in and he caught it by the blade at the die moment. Literally a die moment because if he had not reacted then a dagger would have been sticking out of his head while he would have been lying down dead on the ground.

Only after the sharp blade sliced through his skin did a realization come to hit him. Nova was standing right behind him so if he had decided to dodge the flying weapon then she would have died in his stead.

The thought alone made him very furious knowing well now that his actions could have caused her her death even though he was only trying to save himself.

Anger coursed through his veins as he raised his eyes from the cold steel within the hold of his palm and the man who had thrown it.

  • The Truth

    Rick was beyond surprised to see the fury in Jayden's eyes, he did not even bother to ask again before releasing Elsie and stepping away from her. But he still kept himself close to her just in case she tried to do something suspicious to harm his boss. Jayden was very silent, his eyes were fixed on the woman before him and the last thing he could do was believe that he would ever get to see her again. His heart rate began to increase yet his breathing became shallower. His expression was so cool, calm and unshaken that Elsie was starting to wonder if he was not happy to see her. Although she had not expected a warm welcome back hug from him when they saw but at least not this reaction as well. What was this reaction in the first place? Excitement, sadness, anger, boredom, she could not pin his expression to any of those emotions and she did not know what his reaction would be to whatever she said so she simply remained quiet and stared back at him. Jayden felt his phone vibr

  • Let Her Go

    Nova felt her heart sink the moment she heard those words from Jayden's mouth. She had never seen her boss in so much pain before, it made her want to drown them without even thinking twice. "Yo--your parents?" Francis stuttered. "So-- so you mean that those people we killed are... Your parents??!" Jayden let out a shuddered sigh. He had not wanted to let that weak side of him show but they had seen through him. He let his head fall for a moment before looking back up at them. "Yes. Now that you know, you should know who I am... Or at least who I used to be. But the people who know my identity do not live long enough to tell anyone else. It's my rule. "My name is Jayden knox and i am the only supreme general, known to everyone as Ares, the god of war come back." Gasps erupted from their mouths, hearts were beating faster than ever, minds were racing. They were losing their minds. "You-- you're-- you mean-- you-- Ares??!!" Gabriel exclaimed, utterly confused and flabbergasted. J

  • Bring Back My Parents

    If only she had known that it would come out so loudly, she would have learnt to control it from escaping from her mouth. But now it was too late, all eyes were already on her. She immediately turned to look at Jayden who was also staring at her. Her head was so confused that she did not know what to do. She turned her head fro Jayden to all of the other eyes that were perfectly fixed on her and she would be lying if she said she knew when words left her mouth. "I just could not hold in my anger and irritation to the things that Francis was saying." She immediately cooked up a lie in her head. She gave a bow of her head to Jayden nevertheless. "I'm sorry sir."Jayden's lips curved into a soft smile. "It's alright. You don't have to apologize for expressing yourself." Gabriel chattered hie lips as a sudden cold trailer down his spine. "What exactly are we doing on water here? I am freezing! I swear I am! And the longer we stay here, the more dangerous it is for us because waves us

  • What are you doing Here

    Elsie sat still inside her car, her son sitting next to her in the front passanger’s seat. She noticed how he kept dozing off so she laid the seat down for him to lie down properly and lulled him to sleep. So that was definitely not what she had intended their first day to be like but what could she do when she was just a woman with no power? She could not help but to question herself yet again, maybe it was a very stupid move she had pulled. Maybe Caspian would have grown tired of asking for his father after a while and there would be peace again. But none of that could happen again now that she had promised him he would meet with his father and she had even gone as far as bringing him back to Rose City to find his father for him. She knew she could not face Jayden no matter how hard she tried to tell herself that she could. She kept on regretting her actions over and over again until sleep came in and stole her away without her permission. <

  • Middle of the Sea

    As expected, Gabriel was the first one to speak. "If you want to get rid of some irrelevant weight then why don't you just do away with these stones? I mean why are they even here?" Jayden was starting to grow tired of the man's confidence and he really disliked it when things got on his nerves. He turned to look at Gabriel alone. "You see at first when i got to know you, I thought you were a really cool man who would have thrived in the military but I guess i was wrong. "You are nothing more than a talkative who can't help but to get on people's nerves. One more word from you and I swear that I will rip out of your tongue with my here hands and then force it down your throat so you can choke on it. "And don't even think about daring me because i will do, I swear I will!" Nova took a step forward towards Gabriel. "He will do it as he has said so try not to speak again unless you are being addressed."Gabriel swallowed. "But can i talk though?" Francis questioned. It was only the

  • Irrelevant Weight

    Elsie finally felt calm, the coldness of the ice cream had cleared her nerves. Caspian was also done with his and he was ready to go home with his mum. But the question was, could they go home? Would they finally allow them to have access into their home on the beach? Why had she even gotten a home on the beach? She could have just driven Caspian to the beach whenever he wanted to go and see the vast waters. She was not thinking straight because all she wanted was to please Caspian but noe they were stuck in this kind of situation. She took his hand and they both walked back to the car before she put the car in ignition and started driving them back to their new house on the beach. As they arrived, not too far from the beach, she noticed a black van drive past her car and directly into the land of the beach. That gave her the impression that they were opened up wgain and finally letting people in. So she did not stop the car and just started driving straight but then the secur
