Chapter 138: Black Silence
Liam gave eager punches to the punching bag, he gave kicks and punches as he grunts, he has been on this for hours, no stop or rest, he was lost in his head as he kept punching and punching. The mory of Genesis flashing in his head constantly.
"I’m told both of you are my parents," he said in a lifeless voice.
"What a joke..." he adds in an inhuman double voice as just his right eyes changed to that of a ghoul, black veins clustered around.
Liam shouts as he kicks the bag, the force of the impact makes the bag slam the wall harshly causing a crack, His chest rose and fell in harsh breaths.
Ghost surges out of him.
"We have been apart from Riley too much, Ghost have been apart from Silver" Ghost began in a deep rough voice.
"I don’t fucking care!" Liam snaps facing him.
Ghost gave a growl.
"I just..." he trailed, taking a seat on the floor leaning his back against the wall.
"I need so ti alone, I hope you can understand that" he adds with sad eyes.
"Ghost understands what Liam is passing through, Genesis is also Ghost offspring" he said with a slight shrug of his shoulders.
"Then you must be angry too. Why would she keep such a thing from us?" he said with wistful eyes.
"Ghost sensed Riley was pregnant, but it wasn’t exactly Ghost’s place to say anything".
Liam’s head shot up at Ghost words.
"You knew?" Liam said feeling betrayed.
"Ghost sensed. Liam, it’s in the past, it was in Riley’s will to tell you whether she was pregnant or not, whatever she did, she thought it was right".
Liam sighs, placing his head on the wall, his face lifting upwards slightly.
Ghost growled, walking towards Liam, each footsteps making a thud sound.
Ghost sat on the floor, giving Liam so space, his long legs raised, his long hands on his knees.
"Ghost has been waiting for more than centuries just to see Silver again, She’s a very unique Claw, vessels to wield were sowhat impossible, not until Riley" he said.
Liam sighs.
"And why are you telling
this?" Liam said, running his fingers in his hair.
"No matter how hurt or angry you are, the connection is bound to break that, it is why both of you are destined as Silver and Ghost".
"Great, we just happen to wield beings that were once supre" Liam said sarcastically.
"What did he even call you guys again, oh right he called you guys god’s" he adds facing Ghost.
He scratched his bald head.
"For that, it’s fuzzy, all Ghost knows is that Silver is Ghost’s mate for a very long ti".
"It’s not just about the connection Ghost, way before all this, I have always loved her, and I still do" Liam said with wistful eyes, rembering how they first t at Drinks & Dine, how he got lost in those enchanting green eyes of hers, he still do every single ti, he still drown in her beauty, in her boldness, the fire that burns in her, she was spitfire, his wild card, as well as his perfect angel, the one angel he would bring the entire city down for, he was still madly in love with her, he wasn’t so sure that will ever change.
Ghost smiled as if reading his thoughts.
Liam sighs, rising to his feet, grabbing a punching bag, hanging it against the chains.
In silence he ford his fingers into a tight fist giving loud hard punches to the bag.
Ghost could sense it, he was still hurting.

Sean’s Private Lab
"This explains everything, the weird power, the connection between Riley and Liam. They both possess supre beings inside them, ghoul god’s" Sean said, going through the translated part of the ancient book, it was part of the package sent after Steve’s death.
He closed the book, assessing the body, the body was faded brown in color, but had so black color to it like the original.
His fingers felt the na in the front as he tried to make it out.
"Omari" he read as his eyes shook.
"The first Ghoul, this must be his journal"
It had to because when he went through the translated part, it was written by soone and like he actually lived through it, this was the perfect explanation. Liam was Omari’s forefather, his bloodline.
He had to find a way to translate the rest, more answers to all their unanswered question can finally be revealed, yes they have gotten so, they now knew they had supre beings that ruled over them since ancients tis, what Steve did was resurrect them, but why, why would Steve go that far just to bring back their Ghoul king and Queen.
He opened the book once more, turning to a page that had the drawing of the four leaf clover symbol, a mixture of black and white.
"The ghoul symbol" he said, running his fingers against it in amazent.

Liam was at his building garage, which consists of several modern cars of different colors along with power bikes. He stood in front of one of the power bikes, typing sothing in the transparent iPad he held.
"Whatcha doing?"
Iris’ voice sounded in the wide hall, she slowly strolled up to him, a smile against her lips.
"Nothing, just checking the system, told Kayla to do it, but she’s..." he sighs.
"Sowhat busy" he adds with a thought face, Kayla was never busy.
"Funny, Rory said he was busy too," Iris said in amusent.
"Seems like my brother is finally living, I wonder what took him so long" she adds.
"Rory and Kayla?" Liam said, raising an eyebrow.
"So it seems" Iris said, taking a step closer to him.
Liam faced his iPad back.
"You have been locked up in your apartnt for days, everyone is worried" she began.
"I’m sorry about what happened with your son, it’s too much and I understand".
Liam tensed at her words, she placed a hand on his strong arm.
"But you need to get back up, you have an organization to lead, Barbra and the agency will pay for what they did, to you" she said softly.
Liam faced her with unreadable eyes.
"I’m here for you," she adds, placing her hands on his chest.
Her eyes et his.
"Always"
