A MAZE OF GREED

"Don't stop, Ruth. Run, run!" Thea yelled again while moving her hands. Before Edwin turned her around and got a chance to see her face, Ruth pulled her hand up and jabbed his nose. Edwin wailed in pain as he felt his nose go numb with pain. Instinctively he freed Ruth to cover his nose with both hands. He bent over a little as his eyes watered because of pain. "You!" He hissed in anger as he leapt again for Ruth. But she managed to run before he could catch her again. Her head turned around in shock when Edwin's hand tore her dress when he tried to grab her. It also surprised Edwin as he had not intended for this to happen. He looked up from the piece of cloth in his hand to see gorgeous hazel eyes. He stood rooted to his spot as his mind went blank. Ruth managed to get out of the property and ran with Thea without looking back. The guard came panting, but Edwin didn't notice him as his eyes were still trained on the gap in the wall, through which Ruth escaped. He slowly looked at the brown fabric in his hand, and the image of those alluring hazel eyes flashed in his mind. He clutched the fabric tightly in his hand, and the word left his lips in a whisper.

SAVE MY SON!

Wearing black dresses, everyone stood in a sombre mood on the deserted land. Beyond the borders of Vincardine was a buffer zone where all supernaturals were allowed.

And it was also the place where anonymous got a place for themselves in the heart of mother earth.

The silence of the graveyard was freezing. The guards had dug up the grave and had also placed the body pieces of the Shade, who had always been loyal to Zoe's father.

Ruth stood beside Zoe, holding her shoulders. When she got a nod from Edwin, she softly whispered Zoe's name.

"Zoe, it's time."

Zoe looked like a statue dressed in black. Her tan skin had lost its glow, and her yellowish eyes looked deem and lifeless.

She hadn't cried yet, she refused to do that.

Ruth walked her near the grave. Zoe had flowers in her hand. With Ruth's slight push, she let those flowers fall into the pit of the grave. She then picked up a handful of soil and let it fall on those flowers according to the customs of the Shades.
