327 RIVER’S POWER When one of them tried to stop River from approaching Vanesha, by shooting a bullet near her leg, she glared at that man and roared viciously. “GO DIE!” All of them took two steps back and were on high alert as to what would happen next. They expected there would be a blaze of fire, but what happened was quite the opposite. There was no fire or whatsoever all over the place like they had anticipated, but the man, who tried to scare River earlier, fell to the ground with a…-

326 GO DIE! Zuri really didn’t know what to say in this kind of situation and having Hades beside her didn’t really help with her anxiety at all. This devil seemed to have come to just mock her and add stress to her by saying things that she didn’t need to know. What was the problem with him? Couldn’t he offer some genuine solution? “Did you forget that Chaos gave you the sword? I remember that he said to stab him if he went out of control,” Hades reminded Zuri about this fact. On…

325 HOLD YOUR FIRE! “Knox, what happened?!” Zuri immediately knelt down beside Knox’s body and checked on him. As she skimmed the bedroom real fast, she found that Chaos was not on the bed. He was supposed to be there, because that was where she saw him the last time. “Where is Chaos?” Knox furrowed his brows. He looked pale and sick. Could someone like him be sick? His dark blue eyes that reminded Zuri of Chaos glimmered under the bright flames that could be seen from the balcony, where…

324 HE WILL GET HER BACK “Go with them, don’t cause trouble again. I will see you later.” No matter what, Sol would go to the interrogation room, to make sure that Vanesha wouldn’t be subjected to the full blown torture, as the organization would not be so kind to a traitor, despite this person’s status or importance. However, even though he would go to her, still there was a limit to the things that Sol could do in this organization, especially when he was not a favored person if it was…

323 DO YOU THINK, YOU CAN TAKE RIVER? Vanesha was surprised to see Sol had come. He was supposed to go with the first batch, but now he was here. Was there a change in the schedule that she didn’t know about? What was he going to do with her? She should be the first person to get the information about a change if there was any. “I will wait for you outside,” Sol said to her, as he walked out of the room, while Vanesha followed him. She looked at River and smiled reassuringly that she would…

322 CRUCIAL THING “What do you want now?” Zuri demanded. She felt she would lose her patience with Hades’s quirky traits right now. This was not the right time for this, since she didn’t have enough energy to deal with this devil. “I have come to inform you that I have two pieces of news. One is bad and the other is not really bad,” Hades said, which meant he came only to deliver bad news and that was the last thing Zuri wanted to hear. “Can you please talk?” Zuri sounded tired.…

321 ONE IS BAD NEWS, ONE IS NOT REALLY BAD “Meeting a dragon?” Nikolai raised his brows. “I am excited,” he said with a bitter laugh. “Don’t get too excited and let yourself get killed. No one will buy me drinks anymore.” He had this sense of dark humor, which only a few people could handle. “Don’t worry. We will go back and drink more after this.” But then, Nikolai remembered what Vanesha said. He remembered her warning about how the organization wouldn’t let them return…

320 HEADING TOWARD EAST DRAGHAR River had forgotten the last time she saw a clear sky, rain, night, dawn or dusk. She had even forgotten about how it would feel when the wind caressed her skin. She had forgotten how gently her mother and grandma Anne would touch her or the stories they told her before she went to sleep. These awful people had caged her for so many years, she was no longer aware about the outside world. They would chain her, inject her and force her to do things she didn’t want…

319 I CAN SEE THE SKY The fact that he lost his power had put him in so much agony. He had lived with that power for as long as he remembered, but that pain was not even anything compared to the agonizing realization that he was going to lose Lise. The day he heard Lise was sick, was the day he felt the whole world crumble around his feet. He was going to lose her and he could feel it, as if that was something the most inevitable in his life. And now, with each day that passed, Gael could see how…

318 YOU NEED TO TAKE SOME REST Zuri needed to go to Killian’s house. Chaos was there, still unconscious and even though Knox was also there and he would never let anything happen to him, she needed to see them. Where else would she go if it was not to him? Yet, she couldn’t break through the line of defense created around this sea of fire, as the area was under siege by the military personnel. From above, there were around six firefighter aircrafts, pouring water down from the sky, in order…
