Chapter: Chapter 21 - Dreams Do Come True“You have to come with me, I will show you my world, my life.” With pure excitement, Martin’s heart raced while she held Amelia’s hands. “What? When? Where? Anywhere Martin, I will come with you. Amelia recklessly gives in to this lord’s invitation, without any fear, without any hesitation, her eyes just agree. In less than a second, a red Porsche was already following them from behind and stopped by their post. “Beep.. Beep..” “Here it is my love.” They settled in the backseat and Martin pressed the button that closes the fiber glass window that divides the passenger and the driver. Amelia covered her face for a second and revealed her unexplainable happiness through her eyes, Martin gently unfolds her hands and with slow kisses his lips first land on her smooth forehead, down to her pointed nose and finally reach her red velvety lips. Slowly his tongue slides into her tongue, his hands never let go of Amelia’s face down to her silky neck which Martin chooses to place and gl

Chapter: Chapter 20 - Martin's Real Father"And what are your plans, Victoria? Someone informed me that you intend to eliminate the leaders of the Tikaluna Tribe one by one. That is not the way to conquer the land, nor is it the path to victory. What is this poison you are currently working with? It not only poses a danger to their tribe, but also to our clan." King Angus swung and slammed Victoria's door in a fit of fury.Victoria sat at her dresser, slowly combing her red curly hair, unruffled by her father's raging argument. "Ah, you must mean Larry, your secret servant, who happens to be my servant as well. Father, please calm down. My servants are experts in chemistry when it comes to creating potions. This poison will swiftly eliminate the entire Tikaluna tribe, but we possess an antidote that ensures our kind remains unharmed. Rest assured, I would never put us in danger. Besides, I did not earn the title of the queen of household chemicals for nothing. My business has brought in millions of dollars."King Angus slowly

Chapter: Chapter 19 - The InvitationAmeliaAfter my wild encounter with Martin, I experienced sleepless nights and uncertainty. I constantly questioned whether it was all a dream or reality. The feeling of Martin's kisses consumed me, a sensation I had never felt before, even when I was deeply in love with Dave. The warmth and passion I experienced with Martin were different from Dave's caresses. It felt as though I had been hypnotized; it was magical.Perhaps it was the instant nature of our connection that made it seem like mere lust to some. Maybe I had been craving this for a long time, or maybe I was under some kind of spell. It was hard to believe that a brief encounter with a stranger could leave such a lasting impression in my mind.I have learned to let go of things I cannot control, like Dave's unexpected decision to finally accept us, my mother's death, and Phoebe's quick acceptance of Dave. But this situation hit me hard.I have become accustomed to living with pain, but the sudden separation from Martin, wi

Despite the potential threats and consequences, Martin remained determined to find the human from his dreams. While he was anxious about marking her and becoming her Luna, he was also committed to fighting for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to pursue his feelings without jeopardizing the kingdom.

Chapter: Chapter 17 - The GossipLord Martin swiftly retreated to his chamber, slamming the door with such force that it sent shivers down the spines of all who heard it. It was the midnight hour on a Saturday, yet sleep eluded him. Restlessly, he tossed and turned in his bed, unable to fathom the possibility of a profound connection with a mere mortal. Though he had ventured into the human world on numerous occasions, this encounter felt inexplicably different.Disguised as an ordinary man, Lord Martin had dedicated himself to aiding the impoverished and destitute, intervening in unexpected situations with various guises. But this encounter defied all expectations.The girl from his dreams had materialised before him, surpassing the boundaries of his magic, power, and even his tribe's laws. Initially, he believed it to be nothing more than a dream until he noticed Nano's furious gaze through the window.

Chapter: Chapter 16 - Elemental Creatures: The First EncounterAmelia's POV Resting in the backseat, I let the beauty of nature pass by my eyes as I try to make sense of the strange pull that an old house had on me. It felt as if someone was calling out to me, and I couldn't resist the urge to listen. It wasn't just curiosity that drove me, but a deep longing, a feeling of emptiness that I often find myself grappling with when I'm alone and searching.Despite the hardships I've endured and the battles I've fought on my own, I still yearn for love to envelop me in any form, at any time, in any situation. Love has always been my driving force, even when Dave broke my heart and my mother left me. Initially, I believed that when my mother passed away, love became meaningless because she wouldn't be able to feel it.But when Dave chose to leave me while I was still carrying our child, it became evident that this kind of death is a choice. He had options, yet he chose to abandon me and our unborn child. I, too, had a choice - whether to hold onto him

Chapter: Chapter 55 - Inspirational MessageMabilis ang pag-paling ng ulo ni Payne sa kaliwa't kanan, naguguluhan siya sa mga nangyayari sa kaniya. Pilit na kinakalma ni Neal ang kaniyang sarili upang hndi maramdaman ni Payne ang kanyang pag- aalala. Si Ayla naman ay mas nangingibabaw sa kaniyang damdamin at kilos ang pagiging doktor kaya naman nanatili siyang kalmado at may kontrol sa lahat ng nangyayari kaysa pagiging ina na magpapanic sa pinapakitang kilos ng kaniyang anak."Sandali Payne anong nangyayari sa' yo?

Chapter: Chapter 52 - Payne's Other WorldDahan - dahang iminumulat ni Payne ang kaniyang mga mata, nararamdaman niyang parang may naka dagan sa kaniyang buong katawan. Mula ulo hanggang sa kaniyang mga paa ay hirap na hirap niyang igalaw. Tanging ang kaniyang mga daliri ang may natitirang lakas para damhin ang hangin sa kaniyang paligid.Tila hinaharangan ng hangin ang kaniyang mga tainga kung kaya't sinasala nito ang mga tunog bago pa pumasok sa loob at iproseso ng utak niya. Ang kaniyang pang - amoy ay mas naging sensitibo, ngunit hindi mawari kung anong amoy ang nag- aagawang pumasok sa kaniyang isipan. Nagugulan. Namamagha. Naaaliw. Dahil sa unang pagkakataon, ang kaniyang kaisipan ay malaya at naninibago.Sa kabigatan ng nararamdaman ni Payne sa pagkakataong iyon ay minabuti niyang muling pumikit at damhin ang lamig ng kapaligiran. Ang lamig na dumadaloy sa bawat balahibo ng kaniyang mga braso. Dahan - dahang makikita sa kaniyang mga labi ang kaligayahan sa sandali

Habang si Neal naman ay pigil na pigil sa pagtawa at halos sumakit na ang tyan sa corny jokes ni Gilbert.Sa paulit- ulit na tukso ni Maven kay Gilbert ay mukhang gusto na nga niyang totohanin ang panliligaw kay Shara, ngunit katulad ng iba na may separation anxiety ayaw rin niyang pumasok sa isang relasyon lalo pa nga at malapit na ang graduation nila.Hindi rin siya sigurado kung pareho sila ng papasukan sa college, ngunit si Neal naman ay nagpayo ng "It's better to take the risk than regretting it" pagdating sa love.Kagaya ng ibang typical high school students, masyado pa rin naman silang newbie sa karanasan pagdating sa pakikipagrelasyon, at si Maven naman, sa pagiging relihiyoso niya ay mas pinipili niyang makapagtapos mun
