Chapter 73 & 74 : The New Destiny
One month later, many things had happened. Michael heard about Cynthia’s trip and felt hurt that she hadn’t told him, but he still waited for her. Meanwhile, Charlotte’s obsession with Michael was getting worse by the day.
Brielle and Michael’s betrothal was cancelled. Mabel and Max got engaged, and the whole school couldn’t stop talking about it. The school had been peaceful, but the bullies hadn’t stopped yet. The Loners continued to bully, and everyone avoided them to prevent conflict.
The Loners had been busy. Lorri still hadn’t woken up, and neither had Bianca. Dracula and Derek continued to torture the girls, but they’re still coping. The girls missed Rosemary dearly, and Harry couldn’t stop thinking about her. They tried to find her but couldn’t find any traces and it seemed like she had vanished.
But today is special – something truly extraordinary is happening.
Cynthia learned about her heart disease treatment and upcoming surgery. As she drives into the Loners’ Mansion, she can’t help but feel a mix of emotions.
She steps out of the car, brushes her hair back, and takes a deep breath.
“Home sweet home” she mutters to herself before entering the mansion.
Inside, her friends eagerly await her arrival. As soon as they see her, they rush to hug her tightly. Cynthia frowns, overwhelmed.
“Hey, let me go!” she scolds, trying to wriggle free. Betty smacks her hand playfully, and Cynthia twists it, prompting Betty to raise her fist in mock anger. Cynthia ducks, and the others burst out laughing.
“Scared my punch could kill you” Betty teases, smirking causing Cynthia to roll her eyes
“I missed you, Cynth” Jenis says with a wink, but Rose frowns.
“I’m the only one who can wink at her, got it?” Rose says possessively, making the others chuckle.
The conversation turns serious as Chloe announces,
“Valerie is attacking tonight” The others nod in agreement, their faces set with determination. Erica mentions,
“Rosemary is your guardian, but she disappeared.” Lyla’s expression turns angry.
“How dare she make Harry sad?”
“You chased her away, remember?” Rose shot back.
“Tsk, not our fault” Chloe replied.
“Enough, I’m hungry!” Cynthia interrupts.
The others look at Erica, who raises an eyebrow.
“Why are you looking at me?”
“But wait, where’s Hazel and Arya?” Jenis asked suddenly.
Erica’s expression turns confused.
“We don’t even remember them. What’s really happening? First, Arya disappeared, then Hazel, and now Rosemary.” Erica said.
“Today’s going to be a long day” Chloe sighs.
Night
The woods were shrouded in an unsettling silence, devoid of any animal sounds. Tonight was going to be toxic. The night breeze rustled the leaves, creating an intense, eerie atmosphere. Suddenly, Valerie and Kia emerged from the shadows, flanked by over 1000 vampires and countless rogues, all looking deadly and dangerous. They had prepared well for the Loners, who stood ready to face them.
Cynthia appeared first, clad in a black leather jacket, skinny black leather pants, and black boots. Her eyes gleamed with a fierce determination. Rose followed, dressed in the same outfit, her expression equally resolute. Jenis, Chloe, Lyla, Erica, Betty, and Willow appeared next, their faces set with a calm, deadly intensity.
“I can’t believe I get to flex my muscles tonight” Betty said, forming a fist. “It’s quite cool”
“Yeah, so cool” Erica agreed, her voice dripping with sarcasm.
“You all aren’t even scared” Valerie sneered, her dark grin twisting her face.
“Scared? We thirst for blood only, darling. Nothing to be scared of” Lyla snarled.
Valerie chuckled,
“Well, well, since you’re all prepared, let’s get this done” She snapped her fingers, and the giant demon that Rosemary and Rose had encountered in woods a month ago materialized before them, its eyes glowing with evil intentions.
The vampires and rogues emerged, but Rosemary’s voice halted them.
“Having fun without me is quite bad” she said, appearing before them. Rose smiled sadly, and Rosemary winked at her.
“Bitch! I’ve been expecting you. Took you long enough” Valerie spat.
“Missed me, Va…” Rosemary said, her voice trailing off.
“Lentine” Rose completed.
“It’s Valerie, not Valentine” Valerie growled, her eyes turning a deep shade of red. Her claws extended, and she charged at Rosemary, who drew a sword. Valerie followed suit, and they clashed in a flurry of steel and fury.
Meanwhile, the vampires attacked the girls, who fought back with deadly precision. Cynthia faced the giant demon, her determination unwavering. The woods shook, and the atmosphere grew more intense and terrifying.
Arya appeared, and Valerie ceased fighting Rosemary.
“Came to save your stupid reincarnation” Valerie sneered.
“Anything wrong with that? Can’t believe my best friend turned against me” Arya said, a hint of sorrow in her voice.
“Best friend?” Valerie laughed, her voice dripping with malice. “You stole my man, my mate. You took what was mine”
“Your man? Claiming my mate as yours is quite stupid” Arya retorted, her eyes flashing with anger.
“What the hell is happening?” Cynthia asked, frustration etched on her face.
“This is what happened” Arya said, before drifting into a flashback.
FLASHBACK ~ 2900 YEARS AGO
MOON PACK
Moon pack is ruled by an Alpha who had lost his Luna in a brutal war, and his people begged him to find another. But he refused, saying,
“Nobody decides for the alpha”.
His three sons, Marcus, Dennis, and Miguel, were the epitome of handsome, but Miguel, the cold, brooding prince, stood out among them.
Miguel was fated to have two mates: a witch and a werewolf. But only one could be his Luna. Valerie, the beta’s daughter, was his first mate who is a witch. She had been friends with Arya, one of the pack’s most beautiful girls, since childhood.
Valerie had secretly harbored a crush on Miguel, and she was desperate to make him hers, regardless of whether he had another mate.
When Valerie was announced as Miguel’s mate, he didn’t reciprocate her feelings. But the mate bond would eventually change that. However, Miguel wasn’t ready to mark her, which posed a risk.
Arya, who also had feelings for Miguel, was happy and sad when she heard Valerie was his mate. Or so she thought. Giving up on him would be hard, but she was willing to try. She should have expected Miguel to have a mate, but she couldn’t help falling deeply in love with him.
When Miguel decided to tour the pack with his brothers, Valerie joined them. Arya, returning from the woods, gasped when she saw Valerie.
Fear held her back from waving, even though they were still best friends. Valerie, however, smiled and waved at Arya, who smiled back and bowed, catching the brothers’ attention.
Miguel, seeing Arya, couldn’t look away. His wolf screamed in his head..
“MATE!”
He was unaware of his instant attraction to her. Arya, noticing his gaze, gulped, her heart racing.
Valerie’s eyes narrowed as she watched Miguel’s gaze linger on Arya. His brothers exchanged curious glances, sensing something was amiss. Valerie’s mind raced with the implications.
“No, it can’t be. She’s his second mate, a werewolf”
Miguel abruptly disappeared, his brothers continued their tour. Valerie vanished into the palace, not without casting Arya a glare. The pack members returned to their daily activities, unaware of the unfolding drama.
Arya trudged home, her feet heavy with worry. She entered her grand family estate, the large wooden doors creaking as they swung open. The interior was lavishly decorated with plush furnishings and intricate carvings, a testament to her family’s wealth and status. Her father, one of the most respected elders in the pack, had always provided for her and their family.
She made her way to her room, the soft carpet muffling her footsteps. Her room was dimly lit, but she gasped as she spotted Miguel sitting on her plush bed, surrounded by the finest silks and furs. She hastily bowed.
“My prince”.
Miguel rose, his eyes burning with intensity. He stood up from the bed and walked towards Arya, pining her to the wall, closed the distance between them. His body radiated heat, his wolf hungering for its mate.
Arya’s heart raced as Miguel’s gaze devoured her.
“Pretty” he whispered, his voice husky with desire. Arya’s wolf, Dora, screamed in her head,
“Our mate!”
He kissed her hungrily. Her body responded, going on heat immediately.
He lifted her onto the bed, tearing away their clothes. The rain fell heavily outside as they mated, Miguel marking her as his.
In a small, cluttered apartment on the outskirts of the pack’s territory, A seer gazed out a worn window at the rain-soaked streets. Shelves overflowing with dusty tomes and strange artifacts lined the walls, casting long shadows in the dim light. A knowing smile spread across his face as he understood the reason for the storm.
“He has found his luna” he murmured to himself, nodding in approval.
Days later, Arya was announced as the prince’s mate, Valerie’s anger and jealousy boiling over.
Valerie confronted Arya, accusing her of stealing Miguel, but Arya tried to explain it wasn’t her fault.
Years passed, and Miguel became the alpha with Arya by his side as the Luna.
Their love was extraordinary, but Valerie’s hatred simmered.
She poisoned Arya who was pregnant, causing her to lose their first child. The alpha found out and punished Valerie, banishing her from the pack.
She was supposed to be killed, but a seer prophesied that she wasn’t fated to die in this world, instead, she would meet her demise in another world, thousand years later.
The Beta, her father, couldn’t do anything because his daughter deserved the punishment.
Valerie knew that the baby girl Arya was carrying possessed mighty power, and she was determined to eliminate her. However, a seer revealed to Valerie that the baby’s spirit didn’t die but would be reborn through Arya’s reincarnation, Cynthia.
The seer told Valerie that only Arya’s reincarnation can give birth to the powerful child, which made Valerie more determined to find and kill Cynthia. This revelation fueled Valerie’s desire for revenge, and she became even more obsessed with finding and destroying Arya’s reincarnation.
Michael is also Miguel reincarnation.
FLASHBACK ENDS
The girl’s mouth was wide open.
“He was mine, he was f**king mine!” Valerie screamed with anger. She snapped her fingers, and the fight started again.
Minutes later, Cynthia and Arya were busy dealing with the demons, while the others were dealing with the rogues and vampires.
The fight was still ongoing when Lorri and Bianca appeared.
“Took you two long enough to wake up” Jenis said with a smirk, and the two smiled before joining them. They finished off the rogues and vampires.
Rosemary and Cynthia switched, making Cynthia and Valerie fight. Cynthia charged towards her, and Valerie’s eyes were fixed on her stomach.
“No way” she muttered, and the fight began.
Cynthia wasn’t taking it slow, their swords clashed against each other. Arya was fighting Kia, but as they were fighting, Cynthia professionally stabbed Valerie with the silver sword in her hand.
Valerie only smirked, thinking it was a normal sword, but she looked down and her eyes widened when she saw the silver sword stuck in her tummy.
Cynthia had disguised the silver sword as her own earlier. She stretched out her second hand, and her real sword appeared.
Valerie spat out blood, the silver sword was the only weapon capable of killing any supernatural being.
Kia, who witnessed this, gasped and was about to run to Valerie when she was killed by Rosemary and dropped dead on the floor.
“Do you think I will die alone?” Valerie said, smirking.
“You will die with me as well” she added before removing the silver sword she had intended to use on Cynthia earlier.
She raised it to stab Cynthia, but someone else took the blow for her. Rosemary was the one who gotstabbed and Cynthia’s eyes widened in horror. Blood came out of Rosemary’s mouth as she smiled sadly.
“I’m happy to be your guardian, Thia” she said slowly.
“No, you can’t do this to me!” Cynthia exclaimed shakily. Cynthia’s eyes flashed with anger, and she didn’t waste time before leaving Rosemary and turning to Valerie, who was almost dying. She removed the silver sword from Valerie’s tummy and stabbed her heart countless times, making her blood splatter on her face. Valerie’s scream echoed through the air before turning to ashes.
The demons had already been killed. Cynthia turned to Rosemary, who was already lying on the floor. She quickly went to her.
The others joined them, and sadness was visible in Cynthia’s eyes.
“Why did you save me? Why? Aren’t you the same girl who was told to spy on me?” Cynthia said tearfully.
“I spied on you because I wanted this to end quickly” Rosemary explained. “Taking too long may cause damage”
As she spoke, her sisters appeared, and the others gasped in surprise. Their faces were identical, but they had different body shapes. They all had very white hair.
The last born was clad in a white skirt that fell above her knees and held a white cat in her arms.
The second born wore white baggy pants and a matching white baggy shirt, also holding a white cat.
The third born wore a white short gown that stopped mid-thigh and cradled a white cat as well.
Rosemary the first born, on the other hand, was the only one with white and black hair, and a black and white cat, which was currently at home with her parents. She had intentionally chosen not to bring it with her when she came for Cynthia.
Her sisters’ names were Rosella, Roseline, and Rosetta, and their surname was ‘WHITE’.
They were quadruplets.
“Big sis” the last born Rosetta, called out.
“Am sorry” Rosemary said weakly.
The vision Rose had a month ago was about Rosemary dying.
“Asshole” the second born, Roseline muttered trying hard not to cry while Rosella squatted in front of Rosemary and hugged her slowly. She’s the most gentle one out of them, but also dangerous.
Harry appeared at the scene with Willow. Willow had teleported to his place and told him about Rosemary’s current situation. He ran to her side and touched her cheek slowly.
“Mary” he muttered, tears rolling down his cheek.
“I love you, Harry” she said.
“I love you too, Rosemary” Harry replied.
“Thia, make sure you take care of your baby, she’s quite stubborn” Rosemary said facing her. Cynthia was confused.
“You are one month pregnant” Rosemary announced, and the others’ eyes widened.
Cynthia couldn’t believe her ears. Is that why she had been feeling weaker?
“Yayy!” Rose screamed loudly but quickly composed herself.
“Her cruel fate is gone, Rose, the visitor came” Rosemary said with a weak smile. Rose smiled sadly.
“Greet Mama and Papa” Rosemary said to her sisters, and they nodded in tears.
She faced Harry, held his collar, and pulled his face down to her size. She kissed him hungrily, and he reciprocated. Rosemary started fading away before turning into ashes.
Harry, who noticed her lips gone from his, opened his eyes to see she was not there anymore. He looked up at the sky and saw her ashes forming her name,
‘Black and White’ before disappearing into thin air.
Her sisters disappeared from the place.
“Cruel fate, what does she mean?” Cynthia asked weakly.
“You were fated to die today, it would be a cruel fate to die since you have been suffering all your life. But the visitor came a month ago, the only visitor that can save you, which is your baby, the same Arya’s first child that was killed” Rose explained. The others sighed.
“I have to go now, Thia. Stay safe” Arya said before disappearing.
“It’s okay, Cynth” her friends said and patted Harry, who was crying slowly.
“It’s going to be okay” Jenis said.
“Is Michael the owner of the baby?” Chloe asked.
“Of course, who else? Wasn’t he the one who planted the baby in her womb?” Rose said.
“Tell us about our parents, Rose. I know you know something” Erica said. Rose explained how they were kidnapped from their parents, and the others’ eyes widened.
“Dracula and Derek” they muttered with anger.
Chapter 75 & 76 : A New Hope
~NEXT MORNING~
Michael was overjoyed to hear about Cynthia’s arrival in New York. He had missed her terribly and couldn’t wait to see her again. Despite calling her countless times, she still wasn’t answering.
“Still trying to reach her?” Max asked.
Michael nodded. “It’s been a month. I really need to explain myself to her.”
“It’s okay, bro, just calm down” Max reassured him.
Michael smiled lightly and muttered, ” I missed you, Sexy witch”
Meanwhile, at the Loners’ Mansion.
SYSTEM ROOM
“Today’s the day we take action”Jenis declared,
Cynthia nodded in agreement.
“We’ve seen enough evidence. Those twins are gone, and they’ve messed with the wrong girls” Chloe said.
“They ruined us, and now it’s our turn to ruin them” Betty added.
“I’ve gathered all the information we need” Jenis confirmed.
“Thanks to that girl who made it easier for us” Erica chimed in.
Remember when Cynthia caught the spy who had been spying on them on their first day? The same girl she confronted in class and later in a secluded area.
Cynthia had told the girl to meet her on the school rooftop the next day, saying she had a task for her.
FLASHBACK,
Cynthia was seen sitting on a bench on the rooftop, smoking. The girl approached, visibly shaking with fear.
“You asked me to come here” she stammered.
Cynthia handed her a tiny camera.
“Take this” she said and the girl took it.
“If you want to live, you must secretly put that in the Twins’ office” Cynthia said. “Which one of them do fk you…?” “Both, but Dracula does it most. It’s not fk, it’s rape” the girl said tearfully.
“Lecturing me now, or should I just kill you now?” Cynthia asked, dragging on her cigar.
“No, I’m not! Please don’t kill me, please!” the girl begged, falling to her knees.
“Take this” Cynthia said, throwing another camera at her.
“Place this camera in Derek’s office while you plant the first one I gave you in Dracula’s office”
“Anytime they want to have s£x with you, make sure you notify us. Failure to do so means you die” Cynthia warned, standing up.
As she walked past the girl to leave the rooftop, the girl spoke up, halting Cynthia’s from leaving.
“I’m sorry if this would make you want to kill me again, but I really wish the little Cynthia who was my friend 15 years ago back in the orphanage could come back. I missed you, Cynthia. I really do. Martha died a year after you all left, so that’s how I got adopted by the man who is my father now since the orphanage closed down”
Cynthia left without replying, and the girl let out the breath she was holding.
FLASHBACK ENDS.
“So, have you processed everything?” Betty asked Willow, her eyes fixed on her laptop.
“Yeah” Willow replied.
“Good job, guys” Lorri said.
“So, Cynthia, remember today is the day Dracula told you to break Michael’s heart, so, do your job” Willow said, and Cynthia nodded.
Rose burst in, holding an ice cream and handing it to Cynthia.
“Eat it, okay? Your baby needs it” She said.
“I said vanilla, not mint” Cynthia frowned.
“But you told me to get you mint earlier” Rose frowned.
“I don’t want it again. I want vanilla, full chicken, yogurt, hamburger, hotdog…hmmm…strawberry cake” Cynthia stated, looking cute.
Rose stared at her in awe.
“I thought you were crying earlier because of Black and White”
Everyone’s faces turned sad at the mention of Rosemary’s name.
“She saved my baby and me with her life. Starving myself would be bad” Cynthia said, tears dropping from her eyes as she remembered Rosemary.
“I have to go now. Keep the food for me” Cynthia said before storming out of the room.
“Guys, game on” Jenis said, her eyes fixed on the computers.
“Yeah, game on” Lyla said.
AMUSEMENT PARK
Michael sat on a bench, beaming with happiness as he awaited Cynthia’s arrival. He wore a fitted jersey showcasing his muscles, his longer hair framing his handsome face. His baggie pants added a relaxed touch to his outfit. Impatience got the better of him as he eagerly anticipated Cynthia’s arrival, imagining the kiss and hug that would leave her breathless.
Then, Cynthia appeared, and Michael sprang up from the bench, his face alight with joy. Cynthia’s gaze met his, and she bit her lip, her eyes clouding with sadness.
“He’s still handsome as always” she whispered to herself.
As she approached, Michael enveloped her in a tight hug, inhaling her scent. Cynthia’s initial instinct was to hug him back, but she hesitated and pulled away.
Michael’s frowned slightly, concern etched on his face.
“You okay? You look pale” he said, gently touching her face. Cynthia’s skin prickled with goosebumps at his touch.
“It’s none of your business” she replied icily slapping his hand off.
“Still angry with me, sexy witch?” Michael asked, his voice low and husky.
Cynthia remained silent.
“I love you” he said, and gently grabbed her throat, not too tightly to hurt her, before crashing his lips on hers. Cynthia didn’t want to reciprocate, but on the other hand, this would be their last kiss. So she kissed him back, it was a very long kiss. They broke the kiss, and their lips were already wet and red.
“I want to tell you something” she said, and Michael nodded for her to continue.
“Let’s break up” she said, and his throat went dry.
“Cynthia, if it’s about what happened between me and Charlotte, then I’m sorry. It’s really not my fault, I swear” he said truthfully.
“I don’t care, Michael. I never loved you from the start. I only used you, and I’m done with you” Cynthia said, her words piercing his heart.
Michael couldn’t believe his ears.
“Cynthia, stop doing this, please stop” he begged, trying to control his breath.
“I don’t love you, Michael. I really don’t. Don’t you suspect how I got close to you? Don’t you?” she raised her voice, her words laced with venom.
“I never loved you, Michael. I will never love you. I’m a bad girl who only cares about hurting people’s feelings, so it would be pretty weird to fall for you. Goodbye, Michael” she said, turning to walk away.
But Michael grabbed her back, holding her face with his hands.
“You’re lying. Tell me you’re just joking. Tell me you don’t mean it. Look into my eyes and tell me” he said hoarsely, desperation creeping into his voice.
Cynthia smirked.
“I don’t love you, Michael, and I will never” she said firmly before freeing herself from him and walking out of the park.
10 minutes later,
Michael’s head was in a mess, he couldn’t think straight.
His “sexy witch” didn’t love him, she used him.
No, she can’t do that. No, she can’t. In anger, he stormed out of the place, got into his car, ignited the engine, and started driving.
He was still driving in the middle of the road when a truck was coming towards him, he was shaking. All that was in his head was
‘Cynthia is lying, Cynthia loves me’.
Then, the horn of cars made him come back to reality, just to see a truck coming towards him. Before he could change direction, the truck collided with his car, which stumbled three times. His head hit hard on the wheel, and blood trickled out.
Meanwhile, the internet was already on fire.
Wanna guess why? The Loners had uploaded all the secrets of Dracula and Derek online across all platforms. Since every room in the Rebel Twins clan, except Dracula and Derek’s offices, had CCTV cameras, they hacked through all the videos of Dracula and Derek torturing kids for years. Videos of all the tortures they had endured, all their dirty works, every single thing about them was posted.
The internet was shocked, why wouldn’t they be?
Dracula and Derek were the most respected men in America, acting good in front of everyone but hiding their evil deeds.
You may be wondering if they are married.
Yes, they’re married.
Dracula was married with two kids, both girls. Derek was also married with three kids, one boy and two girls. However, their families are unaware of their activities, except for their wives.
Franco is Derek’s son- shocking, right?
The Loners knew about it though.
They torture and train kids to make them strong and carry out missions. They sell some into slavery to extract information, while others are forced into prostitution to gather intel from wealthy men. They’ve been doing this for 25 years.
THE REBEL TWINS CLAN
DRACULA’S OFFICE
Dracula and Derek were calm and didn’t know what was going on. They had already gotten a call from the truck driver saying he had taken care of Michael.
They were caught off guard. Gunshots interrupted their moments, and before they could react, SWAT officers burst in.
Their eyes widened as guns were aimed at them, with red dots all over their bodies. Dracula and Derek attempted to draw their guns, but that was their fatal mistake.
They were shot immediately, their blood splattering everywhere. The officers targeted every part of their bodies, and they dropped dead on the floor.
Karma caught up with them, they faced their karma. Karma is real!”
Cynthia distracted them by saying she would hurt Michael’s feelings, which would be perfect if they wanted to carry out their plan, since both Dracula and Derek were watching her every move. In fact, they had been watching all the scenes between Michael and her in the park. Unknown to her, they had sent a truck to hit Michael, but only Rose knew the it’s gonna happen as she was a seer. However, Rose chose not to reveal this information, believing it was destined to happen. Nobody can change destiny.
~HOSPITAL~
At the doctor’s office, Cynthia and her friends were there, Cynthia was sitting on a chair.
“I’ve conducted a test, and you’re ready for surgery. However, you’re pregnant, and I strongly advise against it. The risks are too high, and it could cost both you and your child’s lives” the doctor said.
Despite the doctor’s warnings, Cynthia insisted,
“Let’s start the surgery, doctor”.
“I’m sorry, but it’s extremely risky. You may die, and the baby too” the doctor warned.
“Do you wanna die?” Cynthia snapped, her eyes flashing with anger.
The doctor tried to explain, but Cynthia raised her hand, indicating him to stop.
“Cynthia, I’m scared. What if…” Jenis said, and the other girls looked on with concern.
“Nothing will happen to me and my child. Let’s start the surgery” Cynthia said, and the doctors reluctantly nodded.
“What the hell!” Willow exclaimed, and her phone slipped from her hand and Cynthia caught a glimpse of the news headline on the phone:
“MICHAEL HART, SON OF THE TOP THREE RICHEST MAN IN AMERICA, INVOLVED IN A FATAL ACCIDENT AND IN CRITICAL CONDITION.”
Cynthia’s eyes widened as she read the news, and she clutched her chest in shock. Her face paled, and she felt a wave of dizziness wash over her.
“Michael…no!” she whispered, before her legs gave way, and she fainted.
Her friends saw the news and gasped, except for Rose.
The doctor rushed to her side, catching her before she hit the floor. Her friends quickly rushed to her side.
“Quickly, let’s get her to the ER!” he exclaimed calling out to the doctors, as the medical team sprang into action.
~EMERGENCY ROOM~
Cynthia lay on the hospital bed, surrounded by beeping machines and sterile white walls.
The ICU room was dimly lit, with soft whispers of medical staff and the faint scent of disinfectant filling the air.
“360 joules, clear!” the doctor yelled, placing the defibrillator pads on her chest.
The machine whirred to life, delivering a high-voltage shock to her heart. Cynthia’s body jolted up, then slumped back down, her monitor displaying a flat line.
“400 joules, clear!” the doctor called out again, repeating the process.
The medical team watched anxiously as Cynthia’s heart struggled to respond. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, her monitor started beeping again, signaling a faint pulse.
“400 joules, clear!” the doctor shouted once more, delivering a third shock to try and stabilize her heartbeat.
The doctors and nurses breathed a collective sigh of relief as they continued to work on stabilizing her condition.
“Let’s start the surgery, move her to the OR” the doctor said, and the remaining doctors and nurses nodded and they moved her to the operating room and they started the surgery.
Six hours later, the doctors emerged from the operating room, exhausted but relieved.
“She’s fine, a true miracle. I must say, she’s incredibly strong. We almost lost her during the surgery, but we’re relieved and happy that she’s back to life. Both she and the baby are safe” the doctor said, and Cynthia’s friends sighed in relief.
Meanwhile, Michael was also out of danger but had slipped into a coma.
Chapter 77 & 78 : Leaving a Mark on the World
The parents of the Loners have been identified through the news. Cynthia is the daughter of Mrs. Ariel Johnson, and her twin brother is Justin, who is based in London.
Erica’s twin brother is Elis, Rose is Melissa’s twin sister, Betty is Selina’s twin sister, and Chloe is Ryan and Richard’s twin sister, making them triplets. Jenis is Joana’s twin sister, who is based in Australia and is Mabel’s best friend.
So, Jenis’ mother is Mrs. Richie, one of Sophia’s business partners. Bianca is Jason’s twin sister, Lyla is Henry’s twin sister, Willow is Brielle’s twin sister, and Lorri is Aron’s twin sister. Their parents are looking for them, and everyone is shocked.
Cynthia is being moved to Las Vegas to continue her treatment. The girls want to start their lives again and will have to undergo therapy because they really need it.
They have vowed to never kill again and want to start fresh, but that will take a lot of time. They are the luckiest girls I can say because their parents are extremely wealthy.
Damon also found his parents, and guess what? He’s the president’s son and also has a younger sister.
They sent a message to their parents online:
‘YOU DON’T NEED TO FIND US. WE NEED ENOUGH SPACE, AND THAT WILL TAKE YEARS. WE CAN STILL COMMUNICATE, BUT WE HAVE RELOCATED TO LAS VEGAS.’
~8 MONTHS LATER~
The girls helped Harry find his parents. He is from a rich family, and his family is one of the top 5 richest families in London. His aunt was the one who threw him into the bushes.
She bribed the nurse who helped his mother give birth, telling her to announce that the baby was dead. They gave his parents a dead baby, making them think they had really lost their baby. But she was arrested, along with the nurse.
He’s still struggling to come to terms with his feelings for Rosemary, whom he loves deeply and can’t imagine moving on from.
The girls are slowly returning to normal, but still have a way to go. Dracula and Derek really did a good job of ruining them, but in years, they will be back to their real normal state.
Sophia was also overjoyed when she heard that they had found their parents. Charlotte was admitted to a psychiatric hospital, as her obsession with Michael was worsening and she was discovered to be mentally unwell. She has been there for 7 months.
The internet already knows that Cynthia is pregnant and is aware of her relationship with Michael.
Cynthia is due to give birth and is currently in the labor ward at Las Vegas Hospital.
Cynthia can be seen lying on the hospital bed, surrounded by doctors and nurses, while Erica holds her hand.
The other girls are waiting outside. Her baby bump is very large, and her screams are echoing through the room. She has been in labor for 7 hours and looks exhausted. The baby is being stubborn.
“Please, miss, push one more time, the baby’s head is out, just one more time” the doctor urges.
“I can’t, I’m so tired. I’ll kill Michael for giving me this stubborn child” she said breathlessly, sweat covering her face.
“Yeah, we’ll beat him together, but please, just one more time, huh, Cynth, pls?” Erica said, and she nodded.
“Okay, miss, push” the doctor said again, and Cynthia obeyed. As soon as she pushed, the baby came out crying loudly and the doctor carried the baby while Cynthia slumped back on the bed, looking exhausted. She closed her eyes weakly.
“Oh my gosh, she’s so beautiful!” the nurses and doctors exclaimed, wowed by the baby’s beauty.
30 minutes later, the girls rushed in and gasped at the sight of the baby’s face. She was placed in a cradle, her body already cleaned and swaddled, Rose rushed over to pick her up.
“She’s so beautiful, damn!” Jenis said.
“This is Michael’s younger female version” Lyla said, palming her cheek cutely.
“Her blue eyes, gosh!” Betty gushed.
“Hey, beauty!” Lorri waved cutely, and the baby smiled cutely too, her pretty gums showing, her dimples looking deep.
Cynthia opened her eyes, and they quickly handed her the baby. She sat up on the bed and held the baby slowly. The baby smiled at her, showing her gums, and she chuckled.
“You really look like your father, huh? Can’t believe I’m seeing Michael in you” she said.
“Since you’ve already taken your father’s face, I’ll name you with the first letter of my name. I’ll name you Clara, my cute little baby C” she said before kissing the baby’s forehead.
“Best name ever, Clara!” her friends chimed in unison, and she laughed.
“Yeah” she replied, touching the baby’s face again.
“I just sent Michael a message that you’ve given birth and attached a picture of the baby” Bianca said, and Cynthia blushed.
He had just come out of a coma two weeks ago, and the first person he called was Cynthia. She felt guilty to pick up his call, but her friends encouraged her to answer. They talked briefly, but they weren’t dating again yet.
And guess what?
He had recovered his memory of Cynthia, how she was his childhood crush and everything. He had also heard about her pregnancy and was excited and shocked at the same time.
“I missed him” she muttered, and the girls smiled.
NEW YORK~MICHAEL’S MANSION
He was sipping milk in the dining room when a message came in on his phone, which was on the dining table.
He took it and saw it was a message from Bianca, and he opened it to read that Cynthia had given birth. He smiled happily and checked the baby’s picture below, gasping in surprise.
“My carbon copy, how can she look so much like me?” he exclaimed, smiling broadly, his dimples showing.
Another message came in from Bianca, and he read it.
💬 HER NAME IS CLARA, AKA BABY C.
“My Clara, sexy witch really did a good job giving me my female version” he said.
3 MONTHS LATER
Cynthia was breastfeeding Clara. Clara was growing more beautiful by the day, she is already 3 months old and Michael couldn’t go a day without hearing his baby’s voice. They weren’t yet dating, as Cynthia said she still needed space, and he agreed with her.
“Always sucking on the breast every time” Rose said with a frown, taking the baby from Cynthia.
Clara started crying but smiled as soon as she saw Rose’s face. No doubt she loved Rose so much, Rose was her second mom after Erica.
“Better not corrupt my baby, Rose, you flirt” Cynthia said, faking an angry face, and Rose stuck her tongue out.
“Oh please, she’s my baby, and I’ll make sure to teach her how to flirt” Rose said stubbornly, and Cynthia gasped dramatically.
“Not my baby girl, you witch!” Cynthia said, eyeing her.
“Where are the girls, though?” Jenis asked, coming from the kitchen.
“They went for their therapy” Rose replied, and she nodded.
“Hey, Cynth, take her for 15 minutes, I’ll be back and cover your boobs, she’s had enough food” Rose said, giving Cynthia back her baby before running upstairs.
“Your wish” Cynthia said, pecking Clara’s lips.
“So, little one, will you massage mummy? I’m so tired” Cynthia said, and the baby smiled, showing her dimples.
“Seriously, baby C” she said.
“When are you going to start dating Michael?” Jenis asked, her face looking serious.
“Very soon” Cynthia said with a smile before playing with her baby again.
