Her legs shook as she stared at him.
What's was doing there??
No; she wanted it to be a dream. She
badly wanted it to be a dream.
The dope opened immed and she turned
in fright to see it was her sister.
She didn't know if she was to feel
relieved at that moment, or more terrified.
Mica paused at the door and her brows
furrowed as she stared at the broken
glass on the floor. She was surprised.
She looked at her sister who was almost shaken and asked:
"What's wrong?"
Octavia turned to glance at the window
and saw the Master walking away with
his guards - and him
"It's...its nothing. Um...the glass just
slipped from my hand. I'll clean it up"
Octavia gibbered a reply.
Mica walked closer to the window to
have a look and she saw exactly what
her sister was seeing, but in a different
way.
All she saw was Master Khalid and his
guards together with his bossom friend
- Master Zack.
To her, she felt Octavia was scared because she had seen the Master - Khalid. She felt the previous night's incidence had made her scared of him. Well, it was normal.
"You should go sit on the bed. I'll clean
this up", Mica said and Octavia walked
quietly to the bed.
she had to control herself; yes she had
to do it. She couldn't bring up any
suspicions.
As she sat and leaned her back against
the wall, she huddled her arms and legs
together and tried not to shiver.
Master Zack why was he there? What
connection did he have with Khalid?

Khalid and Zack walked into the house together, to his relaxation room.
Zack took a seat while Khalid reached
for the wine bar so he could pour them
some drink.
"How was the trip, dude?" Khalid asked,
popping a bottle of wine.
"Stressful, you know. Got a lot of work
to do" he shrugged.
Zack was almost like Khalid - almost.
He was tall and handsome, cruel, feared
and respected. Most people think his
heart is darker than Khalid's, but they
were yet to confirm.
"How was the party yesterday? Heard
one of your newbies crashed Master
Klaus" he asked with a chuckle.
Khalid handed him a glass of his own drink and took a seat, holding his.
"Well, yeah. Some weakling who's
determined to join the clan". He replied.
"Weakling? You don't take no weakling,
Khalid. Why did you accept her?"
"Well, I tried to send her away, but she's
too adamant about it and insists on
staying. She hasn't been accepted, tho.
Still undergoing my tests".
"Urgh! I'd say you kill her, Khalid.
Weaklings doesn't belong to the clan".
"I have my eyes on her and if she breaks
one more rule, I'l kill her" Khalid replied
quickly, then gulped from his glass.
"Anyway... " Zack leaned back on his chair.
"Is she around? l'd love to see her".
"Why?" Khalid inquired, staring at himn
beady eyed.
"Oh! Come on, dude. I just wanna have a
look at the weak lady who was brave
enough to crash Master Klaus" he
laughed and Khalid also chuckled
grimly.
"Okay, then. If you say so", he shrugged
and called on his guards.

Mica - after cleaning up the mess that
was caused by her sister, went to join
on the bed.
"How have you been?" She asked.
At that time, Octavia's nervousness had lessened a bit.
"I'm.I'm fine. Slept all day". She
answered.
"Hope you didn't get into trouble with
anyone?" Michael asked and she shook
her head negatively.
There was a brief silence.
"The lady.... Becca" Octavia spoke up.
"She seems troublesome".
Mica scoffed and shook her head.
"Becca's a b*tch" she said.
"I don't know how she had gotten into Khalid's life in the first place, but she's been using it greatly to her own advantage. Tho, I heard something like....she had saved his life.
"You should try your best to avoid her,
Octvavia. Hope you didn't get into any
trouble with her?"
Octavia slowly shook her head, deciding
there was no need telling her about the
encounter she had.
"You should go on and eat. You might
be called upon any moment from now
to get further instructions on your
training". Mica said and was about
standing up.
"Did you.. get the pills?" Octavia asked
and she paused.
Just then, there was a knock on the door, causing a distraction.
Mica looked at the door and went to answer it and when she opened it, she discovered it was the guards.
"Mica" one of them called
"The Master wants your sister in his
other room - now" he passed the order and Octavia, who could hear them clearly, felt her heart stop beating.
Octavia felt everything in her rotate.
The Master was calling for her? While Zack was there? What the heck?
Mica turned to glance at her, then turned back to the boys.
"Alright", she responded and walked
back to the room.
"Come on, Octavia. We need to go" she
said, but Octavia felt her buttocks were
stuck to the bed as she couldn't move.
The Master was calling for her - two people she was scared of at the moment and didn't want to see. What would she do?
