"What we are going to do with him...?"

Luca asked Serenity as he cleaned the dinning table.

She washed the dishes and placed it on the counter.

"Not him... Them..."

"Who else was there with him..."

Leo asked who was sitting with Silas.

"You will know soon Silas..."

She chuckled at his impatient behaviour.

"We thought it was just him... He is your only enemy?..."

Silas spoke.

"I myself don't know how much enemies I have Silas... But you are right he is the main threat for now..."

"So what are we waiting for... Let's go and kill him. He can't stop you now. You have got all your powers back..." Leo suggested.

"What are you planning to do sera?..." Luca placed the mop near the counter and looked at her.

"Worst than death Luca... They will regret hurting me and betraying me. I will show them hell. They will cry and curse the day they decided to cross my path..."

Her grip on the plate tightened.

"I have had enough... Giving them chances to be better, to change and it was my foolishness. I shouldn't have trusted anyone. He didn't caged me, my own mistakes did that to me..."

Luca didn't like the look of regret on her face.

"We will make them regret... We are with you..."

She smiled at him.

"I know... You three are the only decision that I don't regret, you are blessings. Thank you for taking care of me..."

"You were the one who always took care of us and it was our pleasure to do the same. Our world revolves around you... You are like our mother..."

Luca said with a genuine smile.

She took out something from the freezer and walked towards Silas. He looked curiously at her.

"This is for you... For taking care of my hair, I know how difficult it is..." She ruffled his hair and he grinned like a good boy.

"Meatball..."

His mouth watered.

Leo looked at her with a pout. She chuckled at him and ruffled his hair. "Yours is in the freezer Leonardo..." Leo smiled widely and jumped of the sofa.

"Yours too Luca..."

Luca thanked her.

"You three must be tired of playing the boring role of my brothers and taking care of me. Go and roam in the jungle that's what your life should be..."

"No... We are fine, human life is tiresome but we can do anything for you..."

Silas replied, mouth full of meat.

"That's what I don't want... I have created you that doesn't mean I own you. You have your life and I want you to enjoy it. You are not bounded to me..."

Their eyes sparkled.

"I know you want to run around the whole forest Leonardo... What are you waiting for..."

She chuckled.

Leo scratched the back of his neck awkwardly.

"I forgot that you can read our minds..."

"Cute... Go now..."

She giggled and shook her head.

"Yes come on let's go..."

Silas chirped and already shifted in his white tiger form.

"Careful... Don't get in trouble..."

She said and they purred in response.

Serenity closed the door behind her as she stepped outside from the house.

"The world has changed so much... I can't believe I was in a stone for thousands of years..."

She looked at the sky, it was almost sunset time and she could feel the chilly wind.

She walked down the empty roads, taking in her surroundings. Constructed roads, street lights, shops, cars everything was new for her...

"Looks like human knows magic too..."

She smiled looking at the new world which was totally different from her ancient era.

She entered the supermarket and roamed around looking at these different kind of products.

She didn't bother to mind the people who were literally fangirling over her. All the boys were already lost in her beauty and the girls wanted her long hair and beautiful eyes.

"Need help?..."

She heard a masculine voice and looked at the boy who was smiling at her.

"Yes... Actually I am looking for some veggies for soup..."

She smiled awkwardly.

"Why bother you can buy readymade..."

He suggested.

"You mean artificial..."

She scrunched her nose.

He chuckled. "Yeah... Kind of. You know easy to make, saves time..."

"That's very unhealthy..."

She shook her head in disappointment.

"Yeah but it works so no problem... I am Ryder by the way..."

He held his hand for her to shake.

She carefully shook her hand with him so she wouldn't scratch and kill him.

"I am Serenity..."

"You have a beautiful name Serenity..."

He looked at her in awe...

"How can someone be so beautiful... Your eyes are so mesmerizing..."

"I can't have sex with you..."

She said and he choked on his saliva.

"W__what... What are you talking about ?..."

He asked flabbergasted.

She shrugged.

"That's what you were thinking about... Weren't you?..."

His eyes widened.

"How did you know..."

"I can read minds..."

She smirked.

He stared at her and burst out laughing.

"You are funny... I am sure I was too obvious to guess, well don't blame me. Who won't want you..."

"Tell me about it..."

She Smirked.

Ryder helped her to buy vegetables and they head outside. "No seriously... You don't have debit card?... Online banking?... Nothing ?" He asked dumfounded.

"No what's that..."

She asked confused.

"With whom do you live..."

He asked in disbelief.

"My pets... Luca, Leonardo and Silas..."

She smiled at the mention of their name.

"Cool I have a pet too... It's a dog... What do you have..."

He fixed his cap as he walked along side her.

"Luca is black panther... Leonardo is leopard and Silas is a white tiger, the latter is very naughty always gets in trouble..."

She answered and he froze in his place.

"Girl you are scaring me now... Stop with your jokes..."

He chuckled nervously.

"Sorry..."

She giggled.

They stopped in front of her house.

"Thanks for the help..."
