Part 8

Marcus and Sofia drove for a few more minutes in silence. Marcus' foot was on the accelerator throughout. He accelerated the car at the highest possible speed, making sure they were as far away from his house as possible. What he did not realize was that a third Furfur demon had been sent to their home, and it had been following them. Wanda, who had initially burst out in a deep cry owing to her mother's trepidation, which she could feel from Sofia's gestures and voice, was now fast asleep in Sofia's arms.

“I still think Bathe is behind this,” Sofia suddenly blurted out.

Marcus shrugged his shoulders gently and remained focused on the road; however, he was disturbed and confused about who exactly was killing the children and attacking any family that had anything to do with The Chosen.

“Why?” Marcus finally spoke out after a while.

“Bathe has been acting funny lately,” Sofia said. “He complains bitterly about Luciana and their son Haakan and then speaks about Celina like she was an angel.” Marcus took in a deep breath, not particularly interested in making Celina their discussion again, but he knew deep in his heart that Sofia was right. Marcus knew his friend Bathe had been acting erratically lately and unnecessarily annoyed concerning Celina and her husband, Alexis.

“And, I don't understand how Bathe could be married to both Celina and Luciana...” Sofia complained.

“Sofia!” Marcus interrupted. “Celina and Bathe; that was just a childhood thing. It should never have happened.”

“Yes, but you said it yourself before; you are not sure if they went back to do a proper annulment before Bathe got married to Luciana.”

“Well,” Marcus tried to choose his words carefully, knowing the discussion could quickly turn into a debate about him and Celina, “as I said before, both Bathe and Celina were barely teenagers when that marriage took place.”

“But, I think they are still together.” Sofia sounded sure of what she was saying.

“You really do not understand the Vitrian ways.”

“What ways?”

“Celina is unique!” Marcus butted in. "She is gifted, especially at drawing people together.” He paused for a moment. “It was a gift that Zacharie's father had, which should have been passed to Zacharie but went to someone else.”

“Are you saying that is why you all are close to Celina,” Sofia mentioned, with a hint of jealousy in her voice. She had never liked Celina.

“I can't certainly say that's the reason, but Celina is the most gifted among us all – her gift is unique.”

“Whatever gifts she has, she has caused more problems with it than not,” she continued. “Celina had been scaring the entire community about someone killing children and their families for months now. She's only doing it on purpose to keep drawing all the men towards her.”

“But isn't that true with the attacks today?” Marcus said, referring to the attacks they just experienced, although none of them believed Celina and Zacharie, who had joined Celina in the stories that some children would be killed by an unknown evil force.
