The Untamed: Game of Hearts

"Raine?" Tyrone worriedly called out when Raine suddenly zoned out. The full moon was up, and Tyrone could only watch as Aire disappeared in his arms in a blink of an eye. Raine saw it too, but there was a long pause from her, staring blankly at the direction where Aire was sitting. "Raine…" he called out once more, with her finally blinking as a calculative frown appeared on her forehead. She then looked around, with Tyrone simply observing her reactions.

"Something feels weird," she whispered as she looked at her wristwatch and murmured, "Sh*it, we should head back. There are a lot of things to do. I need to see Janus and see Father's condition."

Without even batting an eye, Raine stood up and walked towards the car. She then stopped mid step and turned to him with snapped brows as she exclaimed, "What are you waiting for!? Enough with the leisure. There's still so much work to do."

At her words, Tyrone quickly moved and picked up the blankets. He then walked towards the car and started the engine to get back on the road.

"Don't you remember, Aire?" he couldn't help but ask as they made their way back to base.

"Aire? Who's that?" Raine tersely asked.

"Ah, nothing, I mean the air… A while ago at the hill. The air was so good and you liked it," Tyrone whispered with an awkward tone.

"Air? I honestly feel weird, Tyrone. Did something happen? I feel like there's something I'm forgetting, but I can't point it out," Raine frowned as she parsed through the muddy spots scattered throughout her memories. Her eyes then suddenly widened as she turned at Tyrone, giving the latter a suspicious look.

Tyrone could feel the intense stare of Raine from the corner of his eyes. "What?"

"Did you somehow use the Glawackus powder on me, Tyrone?" Raine accused with a dark expression on her face.

He let out a long deep sigh before he replied, "Of course not. Why? What's going on? Is something wrong? Do you feel sick or something?"

He was about to steer the car to the side of the road, but Raine stopped him as she said, "Just drop me home and report back to my uncle. Tomorrow is a crucial day, so stay with him at the trial till then…"

"I understand," Tyrone whispered. He did need to stay with Yun tonight and make sure that everything was going well according to Raine's plans.

Reaching Raine's private residence, Tyrone stopped the car.

"You go on ahead," she tersely stated as she moved to go out. However, Tyrone held her back by the wrist. Turning around, Raine was about to ask why she was being held up only to suddenly feel Tyrone's lips smack against hers. 

Tyrone had kissed her passionately as he whispered, "I love you, Raine. My sweet vixen..."

Raine lovingly smiled at him. Raising her hand, she touched his face, caressing it as she murmured, "So cheesy… You're giving me goosebumps. Geez… You should be going."

She gave him one last kiss before she left the car and went inside the house. Seeing her disappear behind the door, Tyrone then drove the car out to his next destination.

He had a sigh as he complained, "It's so unfair that I'm the only one who can remember Aire."

Meanwhile, the smile on Raine's face faded as soon as she went inside the house and received Dylan's call.

"Boss, the men are ready for the attack on the Convel Society tomorrow, right after the Mirage Trial…" Dylan informed.

Raine felt lost. She didn't know what was going on, but it felt as if there were a lot of missing details in her memories.

"Dylan, I'm not sure what's going on, but something feels wrong," Raine voiced out her confusion as she listened to Dylan discuss the previous plans and instructions she somehow gave to her squad members. She recalled some of the details, but there truly seemed to be some missing pieces that she only managed to put together once Dylan discussed every tidbit of information to her one by one.

"Boss, are we good for tomorrow or should we cancel or delay it?" Dylan asked.

"We will move as planned, Dylan," Raine reassured before ending the call. Still, something wasn't right, and she could tell that some of her memories were lost. Rightfully, there was only one thing that could explain this… the memory loss powder… someone had used it on her.

Immediately, she called Lyne and the rest to convene in the meeting room to discuss the operation for tomorrow. Raine walked in with her complete squad waiting for her. Standing in the center, she began with a stern conviction.

"Tomorrow is a crucial day. We will proceed as planned; we will attack the Convel Society as soon as the sun sets," Raine reconfirmed. "Do you all know the details?" 

Having asked her question, it was there that found out that the others were experiencing similar feelings as hers.

"I don't understand. I feel like my head's about to burst just from thinking about all this. What did I miss? Something's happening with my memories, but I just can't recall doing some of these things that I apparently did," Mia painfully mumbled, utterly confused as she checked her laptop.

Raine clenched her jaw… She looked at Levi and instructed, "Could you check the CCTV footage in the house and see if something weird happened? I feel like someone used memory loss powder on us."

The latter nodded, understanding what her Boss was trying to say.

"Memory loss powder?" Boris inquisitively asked.

Lyne looked at him and explained, "It's just a phrase we usually use when something feels weird…"

"I see…" the large man nodded before noticing something else that seemed off. "By the way, what about Tyrone? Isn't he supposed to be here so that he would know about the plan?" 

"No… Starting tomorrow, he will be out of the Moon Clan. Father will wake up soon, and mutants are still forbidden inside the territory," Raine tersely spoke before then turning to Boris as she added, "You as well. You shouldn't show yourself in this place as soon as we're finished with the attack on the Convel Society. There's a barrier ready to deploy, and Levi will put it up starting tomorrow night. It will cost you and any other mutant your life if you ever attempt to enter the Moon Clan territory."

"I understand," Boris whispered with a sad voice. 

For some reason, he already felt comfortable staying at Raine's residence and with the people in it. All he needed to do was kill Danos tomorrow, and Lyne would agree to be with him.

Looking at Lyne, he sighed deeply as he thought about the task at hand.
