Chapter 24
As soon as I was done, she gathered the plate and was about to leave
“Wait,” I said to her as she turned and looked at me.
“Let me know if something comes up,” I said to her as she nodded her head in response and left the room.
“Rhea, are you still there?” I asked
“Yes, but I have to go now, I am getting weaker because of the spell.” She said
“Okay” I replied
“Don’t worry, I will get back to you. Just try and gather as much information as you can. Soon you will be home with us.” She assured
“Okay. One more thing, how’s mother doing?” I asked
“I’m fine dear, just hang in there we will get you out” A voice interruptedText © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“Who’s that ?” I asked but didn’t get any response
I called out to her once more but good no response. I think she has disconnected from me. Anyway, I hope they get me out of here soon. It’s tiring sitting down for a whole day not to talk for more than a day.
~ Rhea’s POV ~
I opened my eyes and found myself on my bed. My head ached. A while ago, I was talking to Lucy. I guessed must have gotten weak and blacked out. As I walked down the stairs to go meet my mother, I felt very dizzy that I almost fell from the stairs. It felt like I’d been drained of my energy.
“Easy girl” I heard mother say as I looked up and found her standing in front of me.
She quickly ran to me and offered to help. Well, who am I to refuse help from a mother? Actually, I really needed that help. She led me downstairs and I sat down in the dining where both father and Jaden were already sitting.
“How is she doing?” Jaden asked
“She is fine but scared” I replied
“Scared is not fine,” He said
“I know but Greeta threatened to kill her last after she is done with us,” I said
“She must be really terrified,” Father said
“Yes she is, I could feel it, ” I said sadly.
“How many days do you guys have left before the full moon?” Father asked
“What do you mean by us? For all I know Jaden is the one that has few days before he becomes the most powerful amongst all” I said as father and mother stared at each other.
“There’s something you both must know,” Mother said as Jaden and I stared at each other in confusion
“The prophecy about Jaden becoming the strongest amongst all was only a part of the whole prophecy.” Mother said as Jaden and I looked eager to hear what she was about to say
“So what is the other part of the prophecy,” I asked
“You and Lucy are also going to become powerful too just like Jaden,” Father said confusing us
“I don’t understand. How are we also going to become powerful like Jaden?” I asked curiously
“You have my blood running through your veins and that of your mother’s, ” father said
“So what’s going to happen now?” Jaden asked
“We don’t know yet” Mother answered
“How many days are left?” Father asked again
“I guess we have ten days left,” Jaden said
“Wow, that is really a small time,” Father said
“That means we have to act fast to get Lucy out of there.” Mother said
“Yes, we have to before it’s too late,” Jaden said
“I have a plan,” I said
” we will not go get Lucy now,” I said as everyone looked at me surprised at what I just said
“What do you mean by we won’t get Lucy out of that place now?” Jaden asked
“Well, the thing is…” I said as I told them the plan I have in mind and they all agreed to it. The only thing left is to tell Lucy about the plan so that she will too play her part in making the plan a success.
“I will try to reach out to Lucy when I am a bit stronger to let her know about it,” I said as mother shook her head giving me the go-ahead.
~ Karen’s POV ~
I felt so happy knowing that no matter what happens, my children will look after each other. Just seeing how much they all want to get Lucy out of there reassured me that they will be there for each other.
“But wait, mother, how did you get here unnoticed by anyone?” Jaden asked
“Dear, this is my home. I know each and every corner of this house. ” I said as I looked at Derrick who stared at me in lust.
“Right Derrick?” I said without getting any response. He seems to be deeply lust
“Hmm, Derrick” I called out as Jaden and Rhea chuckled
“Yes, yes, right.” He said
“What was the last thing I said, Derrick?” I asked knowing full well that he didn’t grab a single thing I said
“Hmm, you said… Let me quickly grab something in the room.” He said as he stood up and left the table.
Jaden and Rhea laughed at their father who seemed clueless about everything.
“Well, I will be in the room if you need me,” I said as I went straight to the room to meet Derrick.
Entering the room, I thought I would find Him in there but he was not. I walked straight to the dressing mirror and sat in front of it. Closed my eyes to relieve myself from stress and thinking when I felt a hand around my shoulder. It was Derrick’s.
“How did you get in here?” I asked
“Through the door” He replied
“But you were not here when I entered the room at first,” I said
“I was, I watched you as you entered the room and sat down.” He said as he began massaging my shoulders which felt good
“Did you miss me?” He asked
“Yes, I did,” I said as my face turned red
He planted a kiss on my chicks which made me blush even more. I thought it would end there but he immediately planted another one on my lips which made the hormones in my body go mad.
