CORRUPTED
Chapter 6
-Manor-
Cole sat on the couch, scribbling down notes for his newest court case.
A bluish light interrupted his thoughts. Wearily, he placed the documents on the coffee table.
"You're back... with Piper?"
"Don't worry, Cole, she's good again," Paige reassured her.
"What happened to the powers?" He questioned them.
"Um... well, we saw this dark mist thing appear, then, disappear," Phoebe replied.
"The power doesn't just disappear without a trace."
"Well, maybe it went back to the demonic wasteland or the Underworld."
"Maybe... not likely, but it could happen," Cole muttered, casting a suspicious look at Piper.
Piper smiled an evil smile at him, and winked. At the same time, she mouthed, "don't".
"Excuse me, ladies, but I'm going to head back to my apartment," Cole said before leaving the manor.
"I'm going to get some rest now," Piper said to her sisters.
-Cole's apartment-
"Piper," Cole stated without even looking up from his work.
"I see that you've been expecting me," Piper retorted sarcastically.
"I know what you're hiding."
"So? You think my sisters will believe you? Cole, I think that you've forgotten something. You are the one demon who caused more misery to the Halliwells than anyone else. They'll never believe you. They'll probably end up thinking that you're trying to trick them or something if you do tell... So my suggestion to you is to butt out."
Cole remained silent. He knows that Piper is right, but he desperately wanted to do something. Anything. Even take those powers back himself. At least, he knows how to control them. Not that Piper wasn't powerful enough, but she just doesn't have the experience of handling such evil powers.
"You're an intelligent man, Cole. Don't make me do something you'll regret. Clear?" Piper asked in a non-sincere, sweet voice.
"Crystal clear," Cole replied stoically.
"Good. I'm glad that we agree," Piper said with a fake smile before shimmering out.
Cole threw his folders on the floor in frustration.
