Chasing After My Wife Chapter 62
Advertisement
Travis put on his vest while waiting for Brown to lock on Jillyanna's location. Brown's fingers danced across the keyboard after connecting Travis' phone on his laptop.
The red dot was no longer blinking which means the owner was not in danger.
"She's even calm while she's in this predicament. I salute to this woman." Valkyrie stated as he watched the laptop's screen.
"That means she knew who abducted her and she knew that person won't harm her." Brown responded before zooming in the location that he found.
"Who could it be? Lucian said it should be someone dangerous. That person isn't your rival, right?" Valkyrie joked at Travis which earned him a glaring look.
Valkyrie just laughed at him but he still turned serious when they found where exactly she was.
"She's in the middle of the forest? Are you sure it's a forest?" Travis questioned with a frown. 'How could she keep calm in the middle of a forest?' he asked mentally to himself.
"Well, that's what we have here. Unless the device is worn by a different person. But what would a person do in the middle of the night in this forest? Unless they were held hostage or kidnapped, right?" It was Brown who responded to his questions.
Without waiting for another second, be it Jillyanna or not, they have to find that person. How could she possibly have Jillyanna's belonging? Travis wanted an answer as soon as possible.
"Lucian, she's in the middle of the forest in the northern part of this city. It's a vast forest and there were few houses near it. The nearest house was one kilometer away from it. Disperse your men to different sides and be careful of traps. We don't know what surprises we'll face in this forest." Travis was calm and collected but in truth, his heart was beating fast.

He was afraid that it's he's too late. He's afraid that he would lose her. He didn't know why but thinking that she'd be gone left a deep hollow in his heart. He felt like he lost her before and losing her the second time would put an end to everything. He didn't want that to happen.
He got out from the car and moved with stealth as he glide to the dark alley following behind him was Valkyrie and Brown. Brown had some of his first aid kit just in case Jillyanna was wounded.
After few minutes of walking, stopping and observing, they reached the huge mansion at outskirts of the forest. It's architectural design was really nice and there were many red roses planted in the garden. It's like the scene from Beauty and the Beast.
Enzo just got home from the cabin and his heart was still in a mess. He felt so guilty and broken. He never intended to hurt her. He only wanted to see Elizabeth look at him with love once again, but the person he got didn't.
She looked like his love from the past but her actions, her voice and her words, they don't belong to the person he was looking for.
"She's Jillyanna. Remember the child Venus mentioned? It's her. She's Elizabeth's daughter, not Elizabeth. C'mon! Get your act together and free her!" he spoke to himself with so much anger.
"Do you think Elizabeth will forgive me?" he asked with a sad voice, in the verge of tears.
"If you knew she wouldn't forgive you, why didn't you stop yourself? You're an idiot!" his other self responded, angering him as well.
"Didn't I exist because you're a coward? If you took a step, if you went to look for her, if you aren't so weak that needed her protection, do you think she'd sacrifice herself for you! You are so dedicated to your research that you would often forget her! Did she complain? She didn't! You're the stupid and coward! Don't blame me! I am not existing in this world anymore!" he shouted at him, making him realize his mistakes and flaws.

The house sank in deafening silence that Enzo felt a deep void in his mind and heart. He blinked his eyes twice trying to hold back his tears. He never felt so hopeless and useless until this time.
He looked at his hands. The hands that he used to do his research had killed someone, forced someone to do his bid, abducted someone who was special to his love and almost cause her demise.
He stood up with his hunched back, he walked to his room and removed all pictures that were related to her except the picture that was taken back in college. He put them all together in a garbage bag and brought it to the backyard.
There's a big barrel there with a heap of ashes which showed he burned a lot of things in there. He put the garbage bag inside and pour a small amount of gasoline before throwing a lighted match, igniting it to flame.
"I am sorry Eliz. I am deeply sorry. I almost hurt your daughter. I am really sorry." he mumbled while looking at the yellow-red flame.
Travis with Valkyrie and Brown, saw a man throwing something on a big barrel. They waited for a few minutes before they saw him moved towards the forest.
Valkyrie moved quickly and took out some of the things that weren't burned yet. There pictures, stuff toys and jewelries. He picked a picture and looked at it.
"Who is it?" Brown asked beside him. Travis was watching the man to make sure not to lose sight of him.
"The picture was crossed out and the other half was burnt. Can't see who this is. Let's follow him." Valkyrie moved and tapped Travis' shoulder as they jogged through the forest.
It was dark in the middle of the forest. The only light they can use was the faint light of the moon. They could still see the shadows leading them to the middle of the forest and that man didn't seem to have known that he was being followed.

The Goddess’ Chosen
Destiny is a strange force indeed. One simple act can create a ripple, one simple change can cause a cataclysm. One act outside of the individual would be enough to alter one's life no matter how insignificant that life may be. This is the adventures of Allisa Reed, a young girl from our world who found the legendary sword Excalibur and taken to the magical world of Avalon. On the other side of the portal with her friends by her side, Allisa is forced into a conflict she is not prepared for, ordained as the Goddess Chosen to bring about one of two possible outcomes; Salvation or destruction. ------------------------------------ Author's notes: This is more or less the first draft of this story. Currently working on a second draft. Spelling and grammar is definitely my biggest weakness, particularly in my earlier stuff. I've done some editing and hopefully have ironed out most of these mistakes in my older chapters though I'm fairly certain there are some mistakes still left. This story is ongoing. Updates are slow as I publish when a chapter is ready. Expect long chapters for most of it. Just sort of my style. Only available on Royal road.com

Crimson Gloom
Crimson Gloom. The time when the moon turns crimson, illuminating the landscape with its crimson glow. The time when the ‘doors’ to the Crimson Abyss open. One shall gaze into the abyss and gain its secrets and powers. Concurrently, the abyss also gazes into oneself, gaining one’s sanity and humanity. Dimensional rifts appeared spontaneously on Earth, bringing otherworldly demons along with the Crimson Gloom. Bloody battles were fought, noble sacrifices were made. Humans eventually sealed the rifts and successfully defended their homeworld. Alas, the seals were not perfect. The Crimson Abyss continued to exist, slowly influencing Earth and its inhabitants. Half a century of relatively uneventful years passed… humanity slowly descended into corruption, and the majority of them knew nothing of the effects of the Crimson Abyss. Is there only the dreadful gloom left to the world? Can one find brightness in the increasingly gloomy world? The youth who had gazed into the Crimson Abyss had no answer, nor did he care. He only wanted the Crimson Gloom to end, to forever seal the Crimson Abyss. A mistake and a twist of fate led the youth into a seemingly totally different direction. Will he forget his lifelong goal? Will he instead step back onto his initial path that he fervently pursued? Disclaimer: I do not own the image on the cover. Image edited on canva.com. This piece of work, after all, is only a first draft and by no means an end product by an amateur (beginner) writer. Mistakes are bound to happen. With that said, I will strive to improve as I write. Feel free to point out errors and inconsistencies as you read. I thank you for your time. Finally, I pledge to not rewrite this novel until the first draft is completed.
