How dare you!!!!!” Julian screamed when he appeared inside the house. Hannah was busy in her kitchen when she heard that voice. She had her eyes widened at his presence, clutching her amulet she stood her ground but was scared shit nonetheless.

“I told you, Hannah, I warned you but you never listen do you?” he asked in his original disturbing voice. Hannah had to place her hands over her ears, the voice had an effect on her soul.

“How dare you send my boy with that filthy thing. He is mine and mine only!!!!” he screamed at her face. She was shivering badly. His voice was not very pleasant to the ears and had such dominance that haunts your dreams.

Gathering her courage, she raised the amulet in front of his face trying to get rid of him the way she did before. Julian scuffed before chuckling darkly. He was glaring at Hannah. She gulped at the response but stood straight and expressionless.

“you think you can scare me with this huh,” he asked in his deep voice. “you think that mere medallion is worth your efforts against me?” he laughed loudly without humor “no!!! this is nothing in front of me,” he said and the amulet burst into pieces in Hannah’s hand. Tiny crystals were scattered on the carpeted floor beneath her and the string of that amulet was remaining in her trembling hands.

She looked up and saw what made her shiver to the core. Julian was standing near her, towering over her. he was tall enough that she had to look up to stare into his eyes. His dark hollow eyes were appearing and her throat felt congested. She breathed hard in order to maintain the breathing process.

“you will have to pay for what you have done Hannah,” he said and Hannah flew to the other corner of the room in an instant. She cried in pain after landing on the hard floor on her back.

“he is mine, no one can take him away from me,” he said ready to attack when Hannah screamed at him.

“he is my son!!, he is not yours! I will marry him to whoever I want. And I want Ethan for him!!” she said tears running down he face. Julian snickered at her response, he laughed loud that the place felt vibrating with his laughter.

“that Ethan, hah! he can’t protect your son. Ian needs a man and he will get one” he said with amusement and determination in his eyes. She stood up and scuffed at him

“you call yourself a man, you are nothing but a curse to my child. If I could I would have burned you to death. Stay away from my child!!!” she screamed helplessly, and Julian's expression went dark. Her comment was not appreciated.

In an instant, he was a few inches away from her and his face changed to an unrecognizable expression. No hollow eyes but instead there was the full black lens, so big, that it was popping out of his eye sockets. Red veins with were visible on his black lens that was out of the eyes. Her breath hitched to that horrifying face. His mouth was wide and long, with no teeth or tongue but a hole, a dark hole. She was shunned and the scream she wanted to let out was stuck in her throat when a drop of blood came out from those popping big eyes. The stench from that blood was unbearable. He was glaring at her with those eyes. Her throat was clogged and breathing hard.

Suddenly a blow to Julian’s back made him stumbled and he turned around furiously. In front of him stood Mr. Adam in his long dirty coat and a stick to walk. He was mumbling some prayers which caused a burn on Julian’s body. He glared with hatred and stepped back.

“you won’t touch anyone in this house without my permission,” he said with a smirk “I won’t let you harm them anymore”

“you can’t do shit you bloody old man,” Julian said with his disturbing voice. His voice boomed with every word he said. A chuckle and a scream were present in his every word like background music. Multiple voices were combined when he spoke.

“oh I can, I can and I will,” he said and produced a thin bag out of his coat pocket. The little bag was red and made of cloth. He opened the strings and fisted some black substance out of it. Turning towards Hannah he smiled and gestured for her to come near him. She obliged and they both stood beside each other. Julian glared at the man and then at his fist. Mr. Adam started to spread that black powdered substance in a circle around them both and stood straight when he completed.

“now you will see, what I can do,” he said and started reciting the holy words loudly. Julian squirmed a little when he felt a little suffocation.

“Back off Adam” Julian warned but Mr. Adam kept on reading the prayers. Julian was mad at that old hag.

“you don’t know what I am Adam, I am way more than you think. So take a fucking suggestion and back off” he warned with his loud authoritative voice. Mr. Adam looked at him and smiled, sadness in his eyes.

“I won’t, I have lost so much because of things like you. Never I will let you come near that innocent boy. You will go from his life and I will make that possible for good” Julian smirked when he learned the sadness of Mr. Adam.

“you cannot compete with me; I am not what you think. I am a little patient with you two just for my boy” he said and started to move around in a circle, alarming Mr. Adam with his next move. Abruptly he stopped and stared at Mr. Adam without any movement. He looked like a statue made of concrete but then Mr. Adam felt a sting of pain in his head and Julian smiled. He smiled because they both knew what they did. Hannah was standing near Mr. Adam and glancing between the two. One had that annoying smirk and the other had that fear on his face.

 “y.you think I am scared of you. No ……….I am more powerful now. I am not weak anymore. And I will win against you” threatened Mr. Adam with determination. Julian smiled at him innocently.

 “you don’t listen” a strange voice came out. A hoarse and little scratchy voice. Mr. Adam slowed down what he was doing and looked at Julian. Understanding what that supernatural was up to, he closed his eyes.

 “you think I will fall for this” Mr. Adam said with his closed eyes, reciting faster. Julian stumbled again but smiled anyway.

“you don’t listen” the voice repeated. This time the voice was soft, a voice of a girl.

“We suffered because of you” the voice erupted again. A girl nearly 7 to eight years was standing at the threshold of the house. Both Hannah and Mr. Adam looked over at her. He had his eyes glassy when he saw his daughter standing there with her beautiful face and complaining eyes. Mr. Adam stopped and his eyes formed tears. She was looking so fragile and soft that made Adam kneel down. She was crying very hard. her tears were doing something to Hannah’s heart. She had her tears fall down as well.

“K...Kieth, m.my child” stammered Mr Adam. Prayers were long forgotten. He was kneeling down, with no strength left to stand and compete. His daughter, his beautiful daughter was standing near the door, crying hard, hiccupping from time to time, and complaining to her father.

“wasn’t what you did enough?” she asked in her hoarse voice. Mr. Adam couldn’t take it anymore. He cried as well.

“I am sorry, please forgive me,” Adam said crying his heart out. She stood there crying harder.

 “I can’t dad, I can’t forgive you…..no…………not after what you did. You could have left us but, no you wanted to compete.” She said with her red crying eyes. Mr. Adam despised that day when he had lost his wife and his daughter. He could have chosen them instead of his greed to become some kind of wizard of black magic but he didn’t he had chosen his passion with a price he couldn’t afford.

“no please I beg you please forgive me” he cried and raised his hand to her. he wanted her near, he wanted her to smile but she cried.

“you knew you were not powerful as you think you were, but you still let us die. You made a sacrifice of us without any thought” she said. Her crying was so heart-breaking that Hannah was sobbing quietly. She couldn’t imagine her child in this position, this hurt and this disappointment.

“Please,” he said bowing down on the floor.

“why dad” she whispered

“WHY!!!” she screamed

“Please, forgive me. I d.d.didn’t mean the things to turn o..out like this” he cried so much. It was difficult for him to form sentences.

“It hurts dad, I am in pain.” She said her voice becoming normal

 “Help me dad please, help us” she smiled at him. Raising her small hand, she smiled at her father

“you can still do it, dad, help us” she said and Mr. Adam stood up from his place. He was still crying but the change in her voice was noticed by him. He stood up and wiped his tears with his sleeve. He shook his head.

“I will help you, by helping this woman, I will help you, my child,” he said and the smile on the girl’s lips vanished. Mr. Adam smiled at her with sadness when suddenly the door of the house opened and in came Ethan running and panting. They all looked at him with concern. Mr. Adam and Hannah were shocked and the little girl was smiling at the newcomer.

“a.a.unty….i.nni..inni…he, “ Ethan said panting hard, his face sweaty and his clothes had spots of blood all over. He was on the verge of crying.

“wh...what happened Ethan.?” She scrambled with Mr. Adam. They both held his shoulders. Hannah was already crying. She felt something wrong going on. Her son, no, not Ian, please.

“he …he is in the hospital,” he said looking at her. “w.e.w.we.. ha ad.an acci.dent” he said still panting like he ran a marathon. Hannah looked over Mr. Adam silently asking what to do. He nodded his head and they gathered the stuff on the floor. They were ready to leave when that little girl standing chuckled a little.

Both Mr. Adam and Hannah turned around to see Ethan and that girl laughing at them. Hannah was not getting the funny part but Mr. Adam was shocked to find the humor. He tried to open the bag again when a hard blow went his way taking him to the corner of the room. Ethan smiled wickedly and that little girl laughed. Mr. Adam tried to stand up about his leg was not appreciating the action. He saw how his already injured leg had a bone poking out of his flesh.  

“I told you, you can’t do shit,” said Ethan and Hannah realized what was happening. She scrambled her way to the bag to give to Mr. Adam but her eyes widened when that bag slid across the floor and landing near the girl’s little feet. The little girl giggled at her expression.

The girl snickered again and Hannah saw how her face started to change. Ethan laughed loud and Mr. Adam closed his eyes when he saw the rotting face of his daughter. Her face was turning ash grey, her mouth open teeth falling out. The smell was unbearable. Her hands and legs were turning into bones in front of their eyes and her eyes were digging deeper into her socket. She shrieked in pain and vanished from the sight. Ethan was still laughing like a mad man.

“you said you will win against me Adam, what’s wrong now? come on I want to fight” he said amused

“you .a.are..a. fil.thy. fighter….j.j.ulian.” he said bearing the immense pain in his broken body. Hannah was still wide-eyed seeing that rotting body in front of her eyes. She directed her gaze to Mr. Adam when he hissed.

Mr. Adam’s body jolted and he screamed in pain, Hannah had her eyes brimming with tears feeling helpless at the scene, she clasped her mouth with her trembling hand. His body convulsed as if he was shocked by high voltage. Burned patches were forming on his skin and the laughter of Ethan was playing in the background.

She closed her eyes when his body started to melt. He was transforming into a thick liquid. The stench that can blow the brains in the room, and his body turning into a grey liquid seeping into the carpet, altogether made a horrifying scene.

“fucking old shit,” he said with venom in his tone and Hannah knew what was next. She was towered again by the presence of the devil in the room. Her eyes did not leave the disgusting blot of the human body and organs on her carpet.  

“what you did is not forgivable Hannah,” he said and caressed her face with his long fingers.

“you made my boy leave with that so-called man, and tried to get rid of me with this shit” he gestured towards the dirty carpet.

“you are not forgiven,” he said smiling “you-“he was interrupted by Hannah

“he is not yours Julian. I also tried to make you understand but you won’t listen,” she said boring her eyes in his. Both looked at each other with hatred

“he will never be yours, rather I live or die” her determination and smoothness of voice made Julian chuckle. He shifted into his true form, those black lenses popping out and his mouth wide open. Her breath hitched and she gulped.

“oh you will die, and I will make sure you do.” He said amused but with humor in his expression. Her breath shortened and she felt her throat squeeze in an unknown grip. She writhed to be left free but not on Julian’s watch.

“i..i.i..h..h.h.a.t.e..ha.te..y.you jul.julian, s.soo much” she stammered scratching at her own throat, trying hard to set herself free but in vain, her breath cut short and she went limp slowly on the floor.

“don’t worry darling, the feeling is mutual,” he said and left the almost dead Hannah on the ground for her family to see.
