{NOTE! ~THIS IS A STANDALONE SEQUEL OF 'HER BLOOD'}

In a world where immortality reigns, life knows no end. However, immortals are divided into two categories: the strong and the weak. The weak can be easily killed, often possessing vulnerabilities that make them susceptible to the superior immortals. 

*
Tragedy strikes when my father, a weak immortal with a fated weakness, is killed by a man I once revered. This man, who cannot be vanquished, has also passed down his trait to me through my mother. I hold both my mother and this man accountable for my father's demise and all the ensuing events.

Even though my mother sent the man into hiding to atone for the pain caused, I am certain that he will return. Only this time, it will be different. He will come back to complete what he started, to seek vengeance and forcefully take back what belonged to him.

As if they knew they were going to bring Reginald from a different angle. The paparazzi and journalists were already there and they took shots of Reginald as the policemen took him to the car parked to take him to prison.

As expected, questions flew into the air from journalists;

"Did you lose the case Mr Reginald?"

"What will happen to your business?"

"Why did you abduct Miss Keturah?"

"Do you love Miss Keturah, Mr Reginald?"

"Wasn't your lawyer capable of bailing you out?"

"How long will you spend in prison?"

"What about your missing newborn baby?"
