76 Kind & Naive (1/2)

The house of Daniel and Sarah was built in an area of some 3000 sq.feet. The outer perimeter was surrounded by an invisible electromagnetic force field to prevent all forms of intrusion. There were even fighting droids and drones constantly on guard to look out for an intruder.

Inside the drawing room, Daniel and Sarah were kneeling on the floor. Kiba was crouching in front of them but he suddenly turned his face back after hearing a familiar voice.

”Agatha?! How...” Kiba muttered in disbelief.

Daniel was also shocked by the sudden entrance of Sarah inside. He couldn't understand how she could enter after all the security arrangements.

”Have the security equipment failed?” Daniel thought this could explain how both Kiba and Agatha could barge in.

Agatha ignored thieir shocked reactions. With a sigh, she said,”Kiba, let us return.”

”Return? I still have to settle a score,” Kiba got over his surprise.

”You have punished them enough,” Agatha walked towards him and said,” There is no need to ruin them further.”

Agatha was able to realize what he planned to do after thinking of the events at the restaurant, the words he told before leaving, and his dreams.

She could also guess why he wanted to destroy Sarah's marriage.

The pain of a physical injury is temporary and so is the loss of financial resources. Even death is also momentary.

Kiba wanted to give the couple an eternal pain by taking away what they truly cared about. He wanted them to experience humiliation and trauma they have never faced.

”I refuse,” Kiba stood up from the floor and opened his cell phone.

”No!” Sarah screamed again. Her eyes were filled with tears as she continuously begged.

Agatha snatched away the cell phone before he could press 'send'.

”Agatha, return my phone,” Kiba coldly said.

”You have to indulge your love with all her wishes when she is pregnant with your child,” Agatha caressed his face with her fingers as she continued,”Surely you won't deny me the right to be indulged?”

Daniel and Sarah have their eyes wide open.

”She is truly pregnant with his child?” Daniel muttered. He has thought it was just a false rumor when he ran the news.

Agatha has a smile on her face but Kiba could see the firmness in her eyes. If it was someone else he would have used force but not with Agatha. He gritted his teeth and walked towards the exit.

”Phew~” Agatha walked behind him and said, ”Thank god I still have some charm left.”

Daniel was still in his Lizard transformation. After looking at the situation, he was sure he could use Agatha and the child inside her to take away the recording Kiba has.

Without any warning, he jumped up and dashed towards Agatha. Kiba has just reached the door when he felt Daniel catching up to Agatha.

Just as he was about to use his powers, his expression turned into shock.

”This is...”

Daniel tried to catch Agatha but his body passed right through her.

”Intangibility?” Daniel muttered. He turned his body back and saw Agatha having a cold expression on her face.

His eyes also noticed the look of horror on his wife which startled him.

”Daniel...what happened to you?” Sarah's face has lost color.

”What do you mean?” Daniel was having a bad premonition. He looked at his body parts and was terrified by the discovery.

His body has become transparent like a ghost. It was like he was a phantom with no materialistic existence.

”W-what?!” Daniel felt his scalp turning numb.

”Am I really that much of an easy target?” Agatha's voice was full of coldness as she arrived in front of Daniel, ”I saved you and your wife after what you have done to me but yet you dare to target me again?”

Agatha pushed her right hand towards lizard-form Daniel's heart. His body was like a ghost but when her palm gripped his heart; the heart materialized.

”Ahhh!” Daniel felt a pain he has never felt in his life.

His breathing turned hectic and his entire body lost color. He transformed into his normal self but the pain increased further.
