I can't believe that I have to sit beside Beatrice the whole journey. We are currently seating at the kitchen table in the Ashclaire's house.

I'm looking at Zariah Ashclaire's back while she was wearing an apron. The fragrance and aroma of her cooking enveloped my nostrils and my stomach growled.

"Grabe, amoy palang, alam mo ng ang sarap na ng adobo niyo, Tita." Zariah placed the bowl of food on the table and smiled to Beatrice when she complimented it. I chose to be silent and just looked at the food which is mouth watering.

"Quit the flattering, Bea. Alex, I know you are hungry. Grab the spoon and fork, and eat already." When Zariah has seated in front of us, I passed the spoon and fork to her and Beatrice.

I just looked to Zariah while she placed rice to our plates. Afterwards, she placed meats in our plates.

"Wow. Ito nga talaga ang adobo." Beatrice smiled when she tasted the food. She again placed adobo meats in her plate and filled her plate with rice.

"You two must be really famished. After eating, you can rest in Zarra's room, both of you." Beatrice and I both looked to Zariah when she said it. It's like she meant that we will sleep together in one bed. Me? And Beatrice? For God's sake, I'm so tired. I can't have another night with Beatrice.

"What's the surprise? You're sisters after all." Beatrice frowned when Zariah said it. I looked to Zariah, beaming my eyes at her. Zariah knew  that I'm Albert's child. Well, she knows me from the very start.

But I looked at Zariah like she just spilled the tea.

"Ow, I'm sorry. Please resume eating." Zariah said smiling. Like she intentionally spilled my secret.

I sighed and continued eating.

It's just Beatrice.

Yes, just Beatrice.

"So why did they kidnapped Zarra?" Beatrice questioned to Zariah when she finished her meal.

"Zarra is a female, obviously. There is a blood group that can only be an antigen for females. Ivan is a carrier of that blood group because of his bloodline." Zariah placed her spoon and fork at the side of her plate. She stared at us, with her wrinkle on the side of her eye, it is obvious that she's older than us.

"What do you mean blood group?" Beatrice asked.

"Daidalos clan are all negative in blood type. Zarra is the most unique, I gave birth to her with an AB negative blood type. The blood group I'm referring, is the secret of the Daidalos clan. The bloodline of Zarra, especially the women, their blood can alter to any type of blood type." I was surprised on the things Zariah just said.

Blood type of any type?

How can that happen?

"I don't understand it is possible to happen. There is an antigen of A, B and H, Zariah. It is impossible to make a blood of any type from only one blood type." I interrupted to Zariah.

"The Watchers discovered it in Zoey Daidalos' blood. But Zoey died in the middle of the experiment." When Zariah said it, Beatrice slammed her palm on the table.

"Then Zarra will be an experiment?! What will happen to her just for this stupid discovery?!" I placed my hand to Beatrice's shoulder and looked at her calmly. Thankfully, she calmed down.

Let me take this, Beatrice.

"How will I know you're not part of the Watchers, Zariah?" I seriously asked her and looked at her.

"Zarra is my own blood and flesh. I love her. And I'll do anything to save my child." She smiled painfully.

"What are you planning?" I asked her.
