“We all knew you would get a grand ability, and that’s why we, along with the Council, kept an eye on you. But we’ve learned some new information about something else the Council believes you will be able to provide them with.” He paused hesitantly. “You were chosen to be Evan Sharp’s wife when you were a baby. That’s why he was placed in the bunker with you.” I shook my head. “I don’t understand. Chosen? By whom?” “The Council of course,” Beau replied. “For whatever reasons they have, they believe that an offspring between the two of you would have the genes the Council needs to create their army.” “An army? How could they create an army with our child?” I staggered. He looked at me closely before answering, “Juliet, they believe a child created by you and Evan will …show more content…
“You don’t regret not marrying him do you?” “As far as I know, Evan has done nothing wrong. He could be just as much a victim of the Council as everybody else,” I said defensively. “You can’t seriously still believe that after everything you’ve learned!” he spat. We had stopped moving, but our bodies still clung to each other. “I can’t believe that Dex. You don’t know him like I do.” “So are you still planning on being with him then, if you get the chance?” he asked quietly. The question caught me off guard. “I….I…” I stuttered. In all honesty, I hadn’t even thought about what would happen with me and Evan. I thought about getting to him, as well as my family, but I never thought about a life with him, in as part of the Resistance. I pictured Evan and Dex standing next to each other. It didn’t seem natural, and even in my short vision I was drawn more to Dex. Sage was right. I was in love with Dex—I had never stopped loving him. He was always in my thoughts and my heart. I hadn’t said anything more in fear of the unknown, and whatever Dex read from my face he didn’t seem to like. He frowned at me before glancing over my shoulder. His lips pressed into a serious
“Well how do you explain your behavior the morning I tried to throw away the pearl?” I asked, remembering the sharp pain of his clenched fist making contact with my jaw. “You had become so w...
“Thought about it, but didn’t believe it. Well then,” my father’s voice was still the same, “that changes things, doesn’t it?”
“Okay well if you are done I hope we never have to each other again.” Spidey said.
"What idiotic gibberish is this now?" Arthur caught his breath. "We never discovered how the creature got loose," he challenged.
“I don’t know, but I intend to find out.” Marcus grabbed his keys and headed for the door before he remembered he had a guest. “Are you coming or what?”
“You see,” he said, catching my arm, “two of the dynasties, the Whitehall and the Evans families are growing closer. “We have no idea what they are planning,” he said, lowering
“Well we should catch up wi-” A loud noise interrupted me as I was speaking.
“No,” Quinn responds as she joins him on the floor. Her eyes are full of apprehension, fear, and love as she crosses her legs and then reaches to take his hands into hers. “I'm not, but that doesn't change the fact that we're doing this.” She looks deep into his eyes, remembering how it felt when
"Oh, my god...you are one of them as well?" I stopped my tracks and he turned his eyes at me.
“It’s okay, I get it,” I said turning around not wanting him to see me cry,” you gotta do what you gotta do to survive. You taught me that.”
“I said the three things that you told me to say to myself. And I used the feeling that you told me to attach to it. And then I just quieted my mind and just waited there.”
"It doesn't matter." I waved off my questions. "But rest assured I really am who I say." He smiled at me.
"Oh, so your the psychic Rook's been ranting about. The one who 'exceeds expectations,' the one who 'sees and knows all' the one who 'is my most valuable soldier.' You know, if I didn't know about his knact for convincing women to sleep with him, I'd say he was in love with you. Hell, he still might be. He's always had this obsession with his partners having power."
I look at him with disbelief. “Are we?” I whisper. He just stares hopelessly; I’m beginning to think he isn’t sure. We might not make it. Something in me collapse; my heart rate is swelling again. I’m scared.
Faith looked at her, “You might have others and you just haven’t discovered them yet.”
