“Luke’s POV”
As things started to get boring with my twin sister Olivia and Mikhail, I headed back to the castle to rest. I really don’t have the energy to watch all this drama.
As I head back to my room, I noticed that Olivia’s room door is open, which is very unlikely since she always makes sure it's closed. I made myself invisible, just in case to see what is going on. I can feel that something else is happening inside the castle while we were busy outside with Mikhail. What if…this is a plot that Mikhail did to buy them some time to get something from us? Interesting indeed….
I peaked in Olivia’s room and there she was…my dear Claire holding the painting of our parents. Since I can literally transport myself to the other side, I immediately went to the other side of the wall, while Claire is still holding the painting. I reached out for the book without them noticing it as I went back to the door as if I just came in.
“Is this what you are looking for ladies?” I’m smiling all ears while showing the books to both Anna and Claire.
They slowly turned their head to see me as I look straight to Claire’s…
“Look at that! I didn’t expect we have a visitor! Why didn’t you let me know My dear Claire…? I should’ve arranged our room and tour you around your palace.” I chuckled
Claire and Anna were ready to transport themselves to another portal to avoid Luke and whatever possibility might happen that can ruin the plan. Anna raised her hand same as Claire to open the portal but they were immediately stopped by Luke.
“I thought you are looking for something. I was wondering if this is what you need” Luke showed the book in his left hand still looking at Claire.
“Give it to me Luke, that belongs to our family!” Claire said
“Absolutely! I’m not going to make it harder for both of us Claire. Let’s have a deal, shall we?” Luke said while he closes the door.
“I need to close Olivia’s door as she might come straight here when she sees that her room is being searched without her permission if you know what I mean.”
“Go straight to your point Luke, what is it that you want that you are willing to have a deal with us?” Anna asked while slowly opening the portal on her side.
“I'll let you two go away, I will not let my sister Olivia know that you went here…I will even give you this book if this is so important to you Claire. Both Olivia and I know all the spells already, memorized it, and practiced each one of them so this book is really useless for us anymore” Luke said while slowly walking next to Claire…
“However, my dear Claire, there is a price that you need to pay. And that is, you need to have my child. You’re the only one I see fit to have my child who will be the most powerful hybrid ever to live. And we are going to start making him as soon as possible. If you agree, I'll let you two have this book, go back to your tribe, and never let Olivia know about our deal. If you disagree, both you and your little friend here will have to stay fight me and my sister until only 1 of us is alive.” Luke said while he is now slowly touching Claire’s chin and smelling her neck.
“You are f*****g crazy Luke! How can you even think of that! Both you and your sister should be dead. Such a disgrace to our bloodline that both of you are alive!” Anna shouted while daggers go straight to Luke at lightning speed.
“You b***h, who said you can talk to me like that huh?!?” Luke said harshly as he moved to Anna’s side. He lunged the dagger to Anna’s heart which made Claire stoned for a few seconds as she didn’t expect Luke to change his mood from being calm to like psychotic that has bipolar disorder or something.
Claire’s heart is beating so fast that just thinking about it gives her chills. Seems like this type of bipolar disorder runs in Luke and Olivia’s family. And it’s freaking her out!
Anna’s heartbeat stopped right away and Claire knew at that point she is left alone to fight both Olivia and this crazy s**t!
