God Of War
It was stifling night. Thick clouds passed slowly over the moon throwing creepy shadows in the deserted harbor. The wind was moaning among metal containers, rusted, and rickety fences. An ideal location of a secret prison. Jayden was on a metal rooftop and was wearing a full black outfit. He was covered with ash and dirt on the face, and his eyes were straight. He was no longer fugitive. He was a father and awakened soldier.Nova, Georgina and two of his best operatives hid in the vicinity with him. The old harbor-house lay like a sleeping monster below. A couple of windows were blinking with the lights and armed guards pacing circumspectively around.Jayden murmured, They will have him under ground. Viper would not take that chance by keeping Caspian anywhere close to the surface.”Georgina nodded. we go by the program. Noiselessly. Out. In case of everything wrong…Jayden said coolly, I will.They acted as shadows.Jayden crossed the path, climbing over fences through small cracks a
Family Under Fire
The air of the morning was pregnant with silence, that silence which augers great mischief. Jayden had a thick hoodie on top of a low cap covering his eyes, and one could not miss him in the bus station. He was not a driver. Too risky. By bugging his car then they could find him anywhere. To-day his most powerful weapon was stealth.Just as he passed the gates of the school of Caspian the school bell rung. Parents were talking, children were running around having fun, though Jayden was looking through the crowd, frenziedly. He experienced chest pains. Caspian was not visible.He went to the gate and waved a teacher."Pardon me! said he, quietly. Jayden Cross. My son is Caspian Cross and he is in Grade 2. Did he call up today?”The teacher scowled in order to look at the clipboard that was hanging on her hand.I am be sorry, Mr. Jayden... Caspian is absent to-day. Are you okay?”A lump formed in Jayden throat. With a constrained smile he nodded. Probably, only that. I shall call up at
Warmth Surprises
Jayden stood at the cliff's edge long after Rhea had gone. Ocean wind chilled his skin, but he barely noticed it. His mind stayed in the heat of Elsie's kiss, the tremble of her fingers across his cheek, the look in her eyes when he had turned to walk away. Guilt stuck to him like an inescapable drumbeat inside of his chest. He didn't like having to leave again. But staying? That was even more dangerous.He ran his black hair through his fingers and breathed slowly. There was always someone waiting. Always someone who would pursue him for shortcomings he had not even made. He could never quite catch his breath and think that the past was not behind him, closing in with every step.He climbed into his car, the motor coming to life in the quiet of the early morning. The road curled like a snake across the hills. Driving, he couldn't help but see the face of Caspian in his mind. The boy's questioning eyes, the ring of his laughter at seeing Jayden, and that
Shadows That Follow
Jayden had not moved for what felt like hours.Wind teased at the bottom of his jacket and battled his hair, but he did not move on the crumbly stone steps, his eyes staring blankly into nothing. His mind was anything but quiet. It churned like the ocean in a storm, each waves crashing another memory, another jolt of remorse.He could still feel the shape of Elsie in his arms. The faint trace of her scent lingered on his chest lavender and saltwater, like summer from a lifetime ago. The kiss had been unplanned. Gentle, filled with all the words he couldn’t say. And now it haunted him.“I’m not ready,” he whispered to himself, dragging a hand through his hair. “Not yet.”Behind him, the door creaked open. A soft footstep followed deliberate, hesitant. Jayden didn’t turn around. He didn’t need to.“You’ve always done this,” Rhea’s voice floated down, light as smoke. “Run toward the flame, then away from the ashes.”He let out a slow breath. “You were listening.”"I always do," she answe
Loving in Hiding
He sat down on the steps which were worn and old, as the sky danced with pink and purple colors. Leaves shuffled and whispered across each other as a breeze moved along the trees and carried secrets he could not discern. With his elbows propped up by his knees, he hung his hands limp as he stared ahead, working hard to forget how Elsie stared right through him.She was back in his life again. And it all comes after such a long and silent period. It turned out that things happened differently than he’d hoped. He saw that the girl he was comfortable with, the energetic she-wolf who had always been by his side in summer, had become someone different now. Hardened. Guarded. Just like a person whose body has been repaired again and again.He shut his eyes and felt a cool breeze touching his skin. He could remember her voice which was always sharp and full of worry. His memory of it still shows her hands shaking softly when she claimed she was not attached to him. Because the war was on the
The Wedding Day
11111Elsie carefully chose a simple yet filling dish to warm up their bodies and spirits during breakfast. The house smelled of sizzling eggs and toast and the noise of the waves was a gentle background. The fresh morning light made her face appear golden while she carefully did the things needed in the kitchen. While playing football on the beach, Jayden and Caspian were having fun and their joy could be heard in the sound of ocean breezes.After Elsie finished everything and sat the table, she went outside and the wind blew her robe along. She covered her eyes with her hand and spoke to them in a cozy and affectionate way. The meal is done and ready to serve.Jayden looked at Caspian and smiled in reply. Come on, my dear! Shall we have something to eat?They ran back home, feeling the sand between their toes and entered the kitchen full of laughs. They all sat around the table for a family-like meal. The chance to relax while eating together was what made the evening so wonderful
