GENESIS WYATT.

                   "Ella, you have to watch this." Ella placed the phone on her ear and turned on her system, "Can we use what they said as evidence?' she clicked on the video Brian sent her. "Ella, I gotta go, let's talk later." Ella dropped the phone and played the video.  Richard was on his seat, and Garrison was sitting on one of the visitors while the other seat was taken by an unknown man.

Beside them was a white fluffy couch.  A sexy beautiful lady with smooth tanned skin. Laid on the couch while sipping wine.  "Is everything ready?" Richard asked the unknown man. "Yeah, it is the treasures that have been placed, and the colorful and vibrant vest is ready." The man's voice was like music to her ears. "Good, the girl named Samantha Calloway will be wearing the lemon green vest with the number Forty-nine on it," Richard informed the others. "Yeah, but that is not the number on your card." The unknown man spoke. 

                   "Her number is not on anybody's card."  Ella furrowed her brows. What does the woman mean?  "Samantha Calloway has caught my fancy." The others and including Ella were surprised.  "Do you want to just have fun with her?" The woman asked. "Of course, he just wants to have fun, there is no way that the great Richard Tiger would fall in love with a human," Garrison said with a laugh. Ella rolled her eyes. "Are you in love with her?" the unknown man calmly asked him. "Common what's there to ask." Garrison went closer to Richard and hugged him by the shoulder. "I do like her and I think it can develop into more."  They didn't say anything much after the video cannot be used as proof.  Sighed and closed her laptop. 

             she knows that she is safe thanks to Richard Tiger but she has to do her best to protect Nicky.  She carried her phone and scroll through her messages but the message she got from the private number was gone, Ella frowned in confusion and Valder misunderstood it.

   "My lady should not be worried I will be there to protect you and your friend." He said. "Like how you protected me in the warehouse when I was about to be eaten and drained by the vampires and werewolves."

         "My master stopped me from protecting you that day." 

"Ella frowned, For some reason she has been feeling depressed, and sad and feels a very strong intent to kill, at the same time she knew that the feelings weren't hers. "Looks like someone isn't happy." Valder eyes were filled with mirth. She carried her phone to text him. Last night when he arrived in her room, she could feel his sadness, she woke up because she felt his presence but when she questioned him he refused to answer the question. Then she became so sleepy that she couldn't keep her eyes open.

             "He made you sleep last night." Valder's voice tore her out of her thoughts. 'she knew it." Ella unlocked her phone and began to type.

                 Hi Trent, how are you feeling, 

 I am sorry about last night and I miss you so much, I am leaving for the treasure hunt.

 She sent him the text, and she could see that he read the text but Trent didn't reply.

                         I love you.

 He read the message but still didn't reply.   Ella sighed.

Her phone rang and she picked up the call. "Serah, calm down." After listening to everything with a deep line of thought smeared on her forehead she ended the call.

        "Ella my dear, there is a girl named Nicky who is here for you!" Ellis shouted. 

"I guess it is time for us to leave." Valder entered her shadow and they both left.  They all met at the company and from there they entered a bus that took them to their destination. The forest was well maintained with many securities stationed all over. They set their tent, and Ella noticed many fancy cars driving into the forest. Among them were Richard, Garrison, the unknown man, and the very sexy lady.   

         Her eyes met with Richard's green eyes. His hair glistened under the sunlight. He flashed her a very seductive smile, Ella smiled back and tore her eyes away from his.  

          A woman was assigned to share a tent with them. The woman seemed excited about the treasure hunt and wouldn't shut up about it. "This is going to be my third treasure hunt." This piqued Ella's interest. "Can you tell me all about the treasure hunt?" Ella scooted closer to her. "It always happens on a full moon. The hunt starts as soon as it clocks eight and we all run around and search for treasures." The woman looked so excited as she spoke about it. "What happened?"  Ella asked her in a low voice. The smile on the woman's face disappeared. "What do you mean?" the woman looked conflicted. 

        "She already told you everything, Sam," Nicky said to Ella. "I am just saying if something this exciting happens to you, you have more to say." Ella smiled at the lady who had a scowl on her face. "That's right, what did you guys do? How did you find your treasures? Is it hard to find? Tell me how many treasures you found?" Ella wanted to hug and praise Nicky for all the questions she just asked. The woman's face kept changing expressions and none of them are good.

               "Well we…" she kept quiet and started thinking. "Yes! There's this one time that I" she kept quiet again. "I can't remember anything. The woman panicked.  Ella didn't want Nicky to be involved in this. "Nicky, could you please help bring water for her." "Ok." Nicky stood up and ran out of the tent.

           Ella watched as the woman's eyes went wide, she looked like she remembered something. "We need to leave, we need to leave here!" the woman began to panic, her body was shaking like she was drenched in cold water. 

         Ella cursed herself for her stupidity. "Miss Norrie, you need to come down." Ella gently said to her. "You don't understand these people aren't humans, they drink and eat from us. The treasures that are going to be hunted today are us." The lady began to cry.

   "Nicky ran in with a bottle of water. "Here take this." The lady refused to collect the water. "We need to leave, I am not making this up." The lady sobbed. "Ella, what is she talking about?" 

     "It is nothing, I think she's sick." "I am not sick!" the lady pushed Ella. She kept whimpering. "I have to inform the others."  "Wait!" Ella called out to her but it was already late.

"Ella, what is going on?" Nicky looked worried. "We need to stop her." Ella ran out and Nicky followed after her.

                  As soon as she ran out of the tent she saw the unknown man holding the unconscious Norrie. "the man was sinfully handsome, he had the body of a god. Norrie was dangling in his arm. "What did you do to Norrie?" Ella asked the man, who just kept smiling at her, the smile sent a chill down her spine. "Norrie is unwell, I am going to take her to the medical team to check on her." His hypnotizing voice soothes their ears. "That's good, Norrie was acting crazy." Said Nicky and the man hummed.  "I am going with you." He raised a brow and stared at Ella, amusement dancing in the handsome man's eyes. "Where to?" he asked with a smirk. "To the clinic, isn't it where you're going to take our dear Norrie?" Ella folded her arms as she looked back at him. Nicky was lost she was not sure of what was going on anymore. "You do not seem to be a friend of Miss Norrie, why do you want to follow me, do you not trust me or do you know something?"  Ella looked at the man who was trying to toy with her, she immediately knew that he suspects her of knowing what was going on. Nicky looked at Ella and then at the man. "I do not trust, and I don't know the something you're talking about, I have never met you before, for all I know you could be a rapist."  Nicky gasped Ella was right she was about to send Norrie away with a stranger.  The man's smile grew wider. "When you came out of the tent and looked at me, the way you looked at me shows that you have seen me somewhere or knew me." Ella's heart skipped a bit. 

                 "Mr.  I have never met you or seen you before, if I did there was no way I did forget a face that handsome." Nicky agreed Ella. The man couldn't help but laugh out loud. 'This lady is interesting." He said it inwardly. "Fine, the both of you can follow me to the clinic, by the way, my name is Genesis Wyatt."  "I am Samantha Calloway." "And I am Nicky Stoneman."  She quickly introduced herself.

                        Back in the organization, Trent walked into Cyrus's office, he saw a man whimpering like a dog, he squatted in the corner of the room, his cloth was dirty and tattered. 

         "What's with him?" Trent asked Cyrus.

 "He and his crew visited the forbidden forest."
