A Gift from the Goddess
Chapter 158
Book Two – Ch.# 49
“Clarissa!” I screamed, pushing past Zac to run inside.
He was still too confused to move, struggling to understand the situation. Only,
I did know the situation. I knew that something had to be so very wrong.
“Clarissa!” I yelled again, scanning through the rooms.
And, finally, her voice called back.
“Rae!” she cried.
The kitchen.
I bolted to her location and found Clarissa on the ground, shaking as she stared up at a man holding a knife.
…A man I knew as Noah Kennedy.
“Who is that!” she screamed. “How did he get in here? H-he shouldn’t be here. He could have killed me!”
Noah simply appeared stunned by the whole situation and slowly looked down at the
knife in his hand. A kitchen knife that he was using to cut an apple.
“This is wrong,” she whispered to herself.” No one is ever at Zac’s house. How is there someone here? It’s supposed to be completely private.”
“Woah, calm down,” I said. “Nothing is going on. You’re fine. This is Noah.”
The way she had moved around in Zac’s house, it really was as if she were walking into her own home. I suppose it would give her a fright to suddenly see someone after six prior lifetimes of the same empty house.
“Who?” she asked, still confused. “Who the hell is Noah?”
“Uhm…,” I started. “Well… he’s the younger brother of Miles Kennedy….”
“The smuggler? Why the hell is the dead smuggler’s brother here? You’ve never even mentioned he had a brother.”
“I don’t know? I didn’t know where else to
put him after I didn’t kill him. Thought he’d be safer here at Zac’s house rather than somewhere my father would find him.”
And she immediately looked at me as if I had two heads, her eyes wide in confusion.
“…What the hell is up with you?” she whispered. “This timeline… it’s all wrong.
“Um… hi,” Noah then said next to us, quietly watching all of this unfold. “How’s it going?”
It was enough to break the intense staring contest Clarissa and I were currently having. Though, she still refused to acknowledge him.
“I’m going to my room,” she finally said after another few moments passed, and slowly picked herself back up. “I-I need to rest.”
I didn’t try to stop her and she rejected my attempt of trying to help her up. Clearly, she needed some time to figure out what was going on, and even I felt too exhausted to deal with this right now.
