CHAPTER 19✏️
.
❤D. Kincaid’s POV❤️
.
I started the car and was on the verge of following her when my gaze slipped to the time- I cussed gently when I saw that I was already a minute late for work. I looked forward, Kay was no longer on sight..
How do I get the files now?
Hopefully, I glanced at the backseat and right there I saw the file resting calmly on the cushioned chair. I sighed gently and faced front again, hoping to catch a glimpse of Kayla but I didn’t.
Where could she have gone to and how did she get out of sight so quickly?
It’s obvious that wherever she must’ve gone to, she wanted me to have no idea about it and I couldn’t help but wonder why or where..
Regardless, I reversed the car, swerved back to the road and head to work.

❤Kayla’s POV❤️
.
“I got more sticks!” I yelled as I walked to the pile, I left the sticks I picked on it. “We can stop now, This should be more than enough for two nights” I said, wiping my brows with my palm back.
“Melvin?” I stood upright when I didn’t hear his response.
“Over here!” I heard him yell, and I passed through some huge trees and found him washing his feet in a small river, his upper body and hair, dripping w-t.. He turned to me and I could feel my blood dry up as heat rose up to my cheek..
He was half unclad! He only had a pair of trouser on and it was being rolled up halfway but the rest of him was unclad.
I gulped at nothing, as my gaze lingered on his bare chest..
When was the last time I ever saw a guy bare chested?
Since all my days with Melvin this would be the first time I’m seeing him shirtless and I just couldn’t explain how it was making me feel.. I have myself a mental slap that helped in jerking me back to normality.
“Put your shirt on and come over for dinner, I’m grilling chicken drumsticks for dinner!” I said, refusing to give him another glance as I walked back to the little cave.
Just in time, I heard my phone ringing. I reached for my jacket and took it out, I checked the caller ID and it was mom.
Not that I expected anyone else anyways.
I answered.
“Hi baby!” She said..
“Hey mom,” I said, after a brief moment..
“Oops, did I disturb your sleep, honey? Sorry, I just had to call to check up on you” she said.
“Oh.. Um it’s fine” I said.
“I wanted to tell you that I won’t be coming home tonight, something came up so I’ll stay the night at a friend’s” she said. “Sleep tight, okay? I’ll be back tomorrow before you know it”
“Yeah okay” I said.
“Okay, bye baby. Love you”
“Same here, mom. Bye” I said and the call ended.
I put the phone away from my ear and unexpectedly checked the time, I gasped loudly and ran out of the cave at once. Melvin was drying his hair outside with a piece of cloth and I sighed in relief when I saw he was fully covered.
“Melvin, look!” I showed him the time on my phone and he gave me a confused look.
“The time!” I told him “it’s almost eight and-” I pointed to his body “You’re still you!” I said and his eyes grew wide immediately.
“O-oh my! Whoa! I knew my body felt strange earlier, I just didn’t think to that extent and here,” he showed me his leg and I saw a wide cut on it “I got this from a branch on my way to the woods and I was surprised I bled even without you being there; I felt the pain from it, I still do!” He revealed.
I quickly took the hem of my blouse and lift it up, I looked but I didn’t find it..
Doubtful, I rubbed my eyes and searched again but it was clear.. I wasn’t seeing things!
I loosened my trouser a bit and pulled it down slightly but it wasn’t there!
Only my skin was visible and it was as clear as it always had been!
I looked up and saw Melvin gaze on it in a confused expression. Our gaze met and I immediately let out a cry of happiness..
“Oh my goodness, Melvin! I think we did it! Look, the marks are gone!” I cried out excitedly “they’re gone, Melvin!” I repeated, happiness bursting out of me.
Melvin face brightened up in a huge smile immediately.
“Congratulations to you both!” We both turned at the same time to see Priola walking in with a bright smile..
“Kayla, you’ve cut off your chances of becoming a beast and that gives us one against Lucinda” she said, walking to us.
“Priola! You’re here!” I said, with a surprised face.
“Yes, and I bear good news,” she looked from me to Melvin and we exchanged glances in turn, she continued.
“Lucinda’s weakened so it’s time to strike!”
