Elizabeth whirls around in shock as she hears her name.
"Si-sir Nevaeh". She stutters as she addresses him with a bit of hesitation.
"Why are you out here? I've been looking all over for you". Nevaeh said as he approached her.
Elizabeth, exhibiting a physical reaction, took a step backward and exhaled a brief sigh. There was a subtle shift in her tone as she asked
"Has the madam returned?".
"No, she must be busy with some important meetings".Nevaeh replied. "Something happened, Elizabeth, so I need to get things cleared here" he added looking worried.
Elizabeth's curiosity was piqued as she asked "What's wrong Sir Nevaeh?".
"It's about the tea you prepared for Eunice". Nevaeh replied. "The top security guard looked into the green tea you prepared for Eunice this morning". He continued.
"And he says that the tea was–"
"Poisoned? The tea was poisoned?" Elizabeth asked with a smirk on her face. "So she didn't drink it,huh?".
Nevaeh was taken aback by her response.
"So it was you?" Nevaeh said as he grabbed her by her hand.
"Let go!". Elizabeth said as she struggled to pull away.
But Nevaeh only tightened his grip.
"You bastard," he said as his fury grew,
He reached for Elizabeth's hair which was like a chiffon layer, as he prepared to grab it.
Suddenly, something strange happened. A rush of wind flowed through Nevaeh as he was seized by a sudden shock. In a split second, he watched in horror as his right hand detached from his body and fell to the floor.
He looked on with fear and disbelief as his arm lay motionless beside him.
Nevaeh was visibly confused and in pain.
Upon seeing him, a smile appeared on Eliazabeth's face as she turned to Gabby, who stood behind her.
"Welcome back master". She greeted
It was Gabby, A man with an ominous presence, an aura of hate and despair.
"Wow, Elizabeth, you just helped us solve one of our biggest problems". Gabby said with a smile.
"Bringing Nevaeh to me will help me big time," he added.
Elizabeth showed her respect by giving a polite bow to Gabby. But her expression quickly turned to one of disgust as she heard Nevaeh speak.
"Wh- who are you? What…is that you, buddy?" Nevaeh asked, his voice shaking heavily. A weak smile appeared on his face which belied the happiness of seeing Gabby.
"You're alive man!, wha- what happened?". Nevaeh asked, Despite his voice shaking heavily, his weak smile betrayed his true emotions, which were of pure joy at the sight of his old friend.
Gabby spoke sharply to Nevaeh."Sleep!, I do not have the time to explain right now". As he looked directly into his eyes, Nevaeh felt a shock running through him as he slowly lost consciousness.
Gabby turned around as he looked at his wristwatch realizing that Eunice would be back soon. "She will be back soon" we better get going,".he said
"Reattach his arm now and take him to the lighthouse". Gabby instructed Elizabeth as he walked away.
Elizabeth immediately bows to Gabby's departure and picks up Nevaeh's detached right arm, placing it back on his bleeding elbow.
"Having Nevaeh by my side, the only significant issue left for me to worry about is my beloved Aurora".- Gabby
