Sia ran and grabbed Ron by the hand, forcing him to face her. She cupped his face in her hand and said, “These are tears of joy, Ron. I… have never felt so happy before…”“You are just trying to console me, aren’t you?” He asked, eyeing her suspiciously. “No, Ron… what you tried to do was outstanding… My heart is so full of joy that there is no place to hold it, so they are flowing down my cheeks as tears…” Sia said, giving him one of her dazzling smiles.

How will I see?” Sia whined.“Don’t worry… I will take off your blin

STITCHES WOULD REMAIN

EVA'S POVI felt like my soul was being sucked out of me… I struggled to keep breathing, each breath I drew caused my lungs to burn with effort. I tried my best to get myself out of his grip but I might as well have been trying to move an iron rod. His arms didn’t move even a millimeter.Out of the corner of the eye, I saw Michael pull out the amethyst needle from Alex’s body. I heaved a sigh of relief but that just caused more agony. The sharp breath intake caused pain to sear through my chest. I just needed to hang in there for some more time. Alex would soon rescue me.

LIAM'S KILLER

EVA'S POVI was lying on my bed but sleep stayed miles away from me. After tossing and turning for a while, I decided to get up. I picked up a book and sat down on the chair to read. I kept staring at the pages but I couldn’t understand a single word I was reading. I let out a deep sigh and slammed the book shut. I wondered why I felt so restless. I had this nagging feeling that something bad was about to happen. Though, I didn’t know if there was something worse left to happ

PLAYED INTO HIS HANDS

ALEX'S POV“Now, I am beginning to regret my decision of helping you,” Michael said hugging himself as I dragged him through the woods. He jumped at each little sound and stopped walking. I had to constantly prod him or tug at him to move ahead. When I asked him for help, I had forgotten how big scaredy-cat he was. But, beggars couldn’t be choosers. Aaron was still not ready to listen to me and Michael was the only one who volunteered to help me.“Don’t worry, Micahel. I promise… I won’t let anything happen to you.” I said, trying to console him.

PROJECTING MEMORIES

ALEX’S POVI was beyond happy that Eva had agreed to take my help. I resolved not to let her down. I had to find the third Alexart quickly. The only problem was that the Alexart was Mr. Wangchuk.

If we want to lure a tiger out of its den, we throw a piece of meat in front of it.

THREE CONDITIONS

I sat on the window sill, my legs dangling on the other side. The dark night seemed to calm me to a certain extent. The strong breeze slapped against my face rapidly. So, Alex was alive… He was still in Dixonville. I didn’t feel anything about this fact. It was like it didn’t matter. “What the heck are you doing, Eva!?” I almost fell when I heard Susie’s shrill voice but I gripped the edge of the wall reflexively and was saved. I let out a sigh and climbed down from th

ALEX'S POVI drove Susie’s car straight to Aaron’s house. Sweat trickled down my forehead and my hands trembled slightly as I rang the bell. Alice opened the door and let me in. Her face bore a pained expression and her eyes were baggy due to crying. I wondered what Mrs. Lockhart’s condition might be. “ Alex, my dear, long time no see.
