“You’re so lucky I like you,” he huffs, picking up his dress and stomping up the stairs. “No, you’re lucky that you have small feet and can fit into my shoes,” I say as I walk into the kitchen and grab myself a soda from the fridge. “Go for the eight-inch platform stilettos with the diamond fringe around the ankle,” I instruct, taking a sip of my drink. “Oh, good choice!” I make my way back over to the couch and sit down, “So, have you already decided what the number will be?” “I’m going for a Whitney Houston medley. I’m going to open with One Moment in Time, transition into I Have Nothing, then do the reveal as I transition and end it with Queen of the Night.” “I can picture it in my head, and it is already glorious. Any backup dancers or is this a solo number?” “Backup dancers are more your thing, ain’t no one stealing my spotlight,” he says as I hear him snap his fingers. “These ones?” he asks. I look up to see him holding up the shoes I had suggested and nod, “Yup, those ar

I’m coming up on my 2000th lap and yet the rage burning through me refuses to dissipate. I swim to the edge of the plunge pool and lay my arms on the side. I watch the fountain that runs along the edge of the pool, cascade over the side hypnotically while a storm whirls around me, darkening the skies as the palm trees on my estate fight to stay rooted to the earth. Another bolt of lightning rips through the sky in a violent fury as Gabriella’s words echo hauntingly in my mind. Just like me, she was betrayed. Deceived by someone she let into her heart and her home. It enrages me to admit it, but at least Oshmin never fucking gloated about what he did, and though I’ll never say it out loud, he was an unwitting participant in Apaki’s deception. But that… that VILE, insignificant excuse for a human just stood in that hallway bragging about her sins. She threw them at Gabriella intending to wound her. A brief glimpse into her mind revealed enough of her depravity to me, and if it weren’t

I freeze in my tracks, the bronze-coloured crystalized walls around me echoing sounds that have the blood in my veins turning to fire. Wild unabashed moaning reverberates around my ears; a moan I have memorised down to the decibel. Mixed in with the moans are unfamiliar guttural grunts that pierce through the very depths of my essram. With slow, languorous movements, I make my way into the bedroom only to feel my essram shatter into a million pieces when I see the love of my existence, straddling and riding my friend, in all her naked glory. Her glowing bronze skin moves sensually as her fingers move through her long bronze hair, and I remain frozen to the spot as the pain growing within me makes way for something unimaginable. Beneath her grinding hips is someone I thought was my friend; his dishevelled azure blue hair becoming matted as it thrashes with every move of Apaki’s hips. His hands roam her body the way mine always have, caressing her with reverence and inexplicable desir

I take a final sip from my water bottle before I slip it into my duffle bag as I step off the elevator onto my floor. My muscles are aching from the hours of rehearsal I did today at the Glitter Hole but it’s nothing a nice, hot shower can’t fix. I’m performing this weekend, and as Derrick mentioned yesterday, I love having backup dancers. I just love having a group of people working together to create an amazing performance and having us all in sync with one another. As I turn the corner and walk towards my loft, I trip over a large cardboard box sitting right in the middle of the hallway and have to quickly brace myself against the wall to stop me from landing on the floor. “I am so sorry!” exclaims a panicked Welsh accent. I look up as a young woman comes rushing over to check on me. “Are you okay? I’m so sorry, I should have moved that.” I steady myself and give her a reassuring smile, “No harm done,” I say as I notice the hallways lined with boxes, “Are you moving into the bui

The spotlight beats down on me, causing sweat to form on my brow as the fans in front of the stage act as my only saving grace, and yet, despite how much I am burning up on this stage – literally and figuratively – my entire being comes alive with every note I sing. I’m feeding off the crowd's energy, their excitement acting as my fuel as I sing Madonna’s song Secret. Bedtime Stories is my favourite Madonna album of all time and is just one of the many reasons I wish I was born in the 90s. The crowd dances to the beat, throwing bills onto the stage as the dancers and I continue our choreographed routine to perfection. I’m sweltering in these high-waisted black leather pants, but it is worth it. On the beat, I throw out my right leg, stomping my 7” black, pointed stiletto knee-high leather boots, fanning and throwing back the fabric of my shear, floor-length, puff-sleeve, low-cut polka maxi top like a cape, the fans catching the fabric and making it billow behind me as I signal for th

My laugh is cut off as a shudder ripples through my body when the air around us suddenly feels as though it’s filled with static electricity. I know that feeling. Hasn’t taken me long to understand exactly what that feeling is and where it’s coming from. I drop my arms, placing my weight back on my feet and doing my best to ignore the pressure that returns to them, as I whip myself around to look for Jartre. I don’t have to look far. The moment I turn around, standing just three feet in front of me is the 7’9 God himself. Instinctively my face breaks into a bright smile, but that smile immediately vanishes when I see the look on his face. His nostrils are flared, his jaw is clenched, and his fists are balled up so tight I can see the white of his knuckles, but that’s not what has me gulping. It’s the haunted – almost pained – look in his eyes, that has my heart feeling like it’s been clenched too tight. I take a slow step towards him as if attempting to stop a wild animal from fleei

I allow Gabriella to lead me into the club’s back alley. I focus on the feeling of her hand in mine to calm myself down, but every time I do, I see her wrapped up in that human’s arms. It makes me want to open the Earth and watch this entire club and everyone in it sink into oblivion. He might be gay, but the hurt and rage I felt seeing them in each other’s arms… it was like walking in on Apaki all over again. I hate this. I feel so stupid and weak, no better than a human. Then there’s Gabriella. I saw the fear in her eyes. Under the haze of my rage, that look in those glacial mint eyes broke me inside. I don’t want her to fear me or ever feel unsafe around me. Perhaps I shouldn’t have jumped to conclusions, but can I truly be blamed? Once we’re alone in the alley, I wrap my arms around Gabriella, sighing when I feel her body relax against mine. I hold onto this feeling for just a moment longer before teleporting us to my estate. I gently caress her hair, trying to focus on being g

I lead her past one of the curved staircases, turn to the left, and lead her into the grand kitchen, watching the way her steps falter as she takes in the size. Gabriella regains her footing and steps forward, her high heels clicking and echoing against the white marble floor. The entire kitchen is pure white with a grand chandelier hanging from an ornamental ceiling. Gabriella runs her fingers along the sandstone countertop of the massive prep table in the centre of the room while glancing down at the built-in wine fridge. The countertop is flanked by several bench chairs, while the right of the kitchen is lined with drawers and cabinets and all the usual kitchen fixtures. There is also a long six-seater kitchen table at the far end of the room against the windows, with smaller chandeliers hanging down the length of the table. “You really like white huh?” she comments. “It’s my signature colour,” I say casually. “It’s the most opulent kitchen I’ve ever seen,” she says in awe. I h

A Queen Among Gods Chapter Ninety-Two: A Promising Future - Gabriella
I walk down the front steps of the beach house, making my way across the sand and over to Jartre who continues to stare out at the horizon. I sense his anguish and guilt and if our bond were complete I’d probably be crushed by their weight. That’s the thing most people don’t realize about Jartre. Jartre feels everything far more intensely than others. His own emotions are a destructive force to himself and those around him. His love for Apaki nearly destroyed the world and then his love for me nearly did the same thing, only on a much larger scale. His guilt, disgust and shame birthed a new God and that has come with its own set of problems. I can’t blame Jartre for wanting to run and hide from his feelings all these years because it seems whenever he lets them out, someone gets hurt.“Are you going to keep standing there watching me?” he utters, not sparing me a glance.“I didn’t want to disturb you. Do you want to talk?” I gently ask.“I’m sure you already know what happened, so wha
A Queen Among Gods Chapter Ninety-One: Settings Things Right - Jartre
I appear in a wide open, sparse living room surrounded by walls of stone and endless glass windows that look out onto an incredible mountainside from atop a hill with trees as far as the eye can see. The sound of the rain echoes around this somewhat hollow domain, each drop beating down on the glass ceiling and cascading down like a waterfall all around me.“What do you want, Jartre?”I look over to see Oshmin sitting at an oversized dining table, his head buried in his hands while flecks of golden glitter in his azure hair manage to twinkle in the light of such an overcast day. A simple whiff is enough to tell me Yildiz is here too, but as I pay closer attention I can feel her energy emanating from somewhere upstairs.“I’m sure you would love more than anything to throw me out, and that would be more than fair, but I’m hoping you’ll give me a chance to speak,” I say with all the confidence I can muster. I feel like a human child confronting their disappointed parent. It feels revolti
A Queen Among Gods Chapter Ninety: Facing Fears - Jartre
Instant relief washes over me when Gabriella finally appears. She crawls onto the bed, collapsing and snuggling up to me, wrapping her arms tight around my body and nuzzling against my chest, setting my body ablaze. I put the TV on mute, wrap my arms around her and plant a tender kiss on the top of her head.“How did it go?”“I knew it would be emotional but…that was even harder than I anticipated,” she exhales.I gently comb my fingers through her green locks as I tenderly run my fingers up and down her arm, her scent swirling around the room putting me at peace. “Did Fretez put up a fight?”She shakes her head, “No, she was very sympathetic and understood why I wanted to do this and said that ultimately it’s my decision and she no longer has a say on the matter. That alone is crazy to me. I mean… having the power to move the spirits of the dead from one plane of existence to another…it’s insane to think that’s something I can do now.”“And how did the young Alpha handle it?”“I thin
A Queen Among Gods Chapter Eight-Nine: Eliana - Amelia
The tender moment is interrupted by the suite's buzzer, so I reluctantly free my hand from the mighty grip of my daughter and answer the door. I stand there, mouth agape, looking up at the 7’7” Goddess standing at the threshold of my suite. Dark, yet radiant forest green hair frames her face in long natural waves while her bright, silver eyes look down at me with apprehension.'What would a Goddess have to be apprehensive about?' Zara utters in astonishment, echoing my own thoughts.'Beats me, but a better question would be: why in the hell is a Goddess at my front door?''That is definitely the superior question,' Zara nods in agreement. 'What kind of God rings the doorbell?' Zara appears more lively than she has in weeks. I’m not the only one who lost both her parents. Just like me, the only things keeping her going are Ace and their pup.“I’m so sorry for just showing up like this. It’s Amelia, right?” she says hopefully. “Sorry, I mean, Alpha Amelia,” she quickly corrects herself.
A Queen Among Gods Chapter Eight-Eight: Circle of Life - Amelia
As I look down into the bassinet, listening to the steady thumps of my precious baby girl, I lose count of how many emotions are running through me. My mum tried to brace me for how overwhelming having a baby is. She warned me that from one moment to the next I won’t know whether I want to laugh, scream or cry and she was right, but I still wasn’t prepared. However, the one thing she didn’t prepare me for was how to do this without her.Zara whimpers quietly in my mind as I look over at the framed picture by the television of my mum holding my daughter the day she was born, and I can feel the tears filling my eyes. She tried so hard to make herself look healthy and strong for her granddaughter that day. It’s such a beautiful, bittersweet photo. My mum’s radiant red hair almost cocooning my daughter, her thick black tufts a stark contrast against my mum’s red. Mum was so happy to meet her granddaughter and even though my daughter was fresh out of the womb, it’s like she knew what my mu
A Queen Among Gods Chapter Eighty-Seven: Healing - Gabriella
I place a glamour over my eyes just as Jartre taught me, allowing people to see my eyes as they once were and not as they are now. I figure this will make it a little easier to take in my new appearance. I wait until Wyatt steps out, then let myself into Derrick’s hospital room. I walk over to the bed and look down at my best friend, his hair damp with sweat and his face pale. He doesn’t deserve this, and I feel like a bad friend for not being there more for him lately because of all this supernatural drama.I quietly pull up a chair and sit down, reaching out and holding his hand between mine. Derrick slowly opens his eyes and looks over at me, first his brows furrow in confusion, but soon his eyes widen in disbelief as he looks me over.“Ella?”“Hey, you,” I say softly.“What…Is that a wig?” he asks in confusion.“Uh no.” I grab a strand of hair between my fingers and look down at it scornfully. “This is my real hair.”“You hate the colour green.”“Oh, I still hate the colour green,

“According to sources, the FBI is working with local law enforcement throughout the states of Oregon, Washington and Idaho to get to the bottom of this sudden wave of unexplained disappearances. Conspiracy theorists are going wild on public forums suspecting everything from alien abductions to human trafficking. As for the real cause behind these disappearances, authorities still have no leads on the matter.”I take in a deep breath, guilt strangling me as the news shows more faces of people who have been reported missing since the eyti were released. I allowed this to happen. Those people aren’t missing. They’ve been pulled into an unfathomable dark abyss, infected by the eyti set free from their prison and fuelled by the malice that lives within every human.The TV turns off and I look over to see Jartre getting up from the couch and making his way out to the patio, anger and frustration radiating off him in waves, rippling against the radiating pure white of his essram, now spotted
A Queen Among Gods Chapter Eighty-Five: Starting Over - Jartre
Whoever said exposure therapy was ideal for curing people of their fears was a sadistic fucking cunt.From the moment I met Gabriella, my greatest fear was that I would lose her. Whether it be at my own hands or due to her humanity. Nothing could have prepared me for what it would be like to feel her life slip away from mine; to feel her soul leave her body and to hold her corpse in my arms. That pain will haunt me for the rest of my life and as an immortal being, that means this ghost will be with me always.I look down at Gabriella as she sleeps peacefully on her bed, her mind needing to recharge from all that has overwhelmed it today. I can feel in my essram that she is still the same Gabriella at her core, but I can’t help still feeling a sense of loss. I carefully reach out, picking up a lock of her dark, forest-green hair and run it between my fingers. It has the same luminous quality Fretez’s always had, and yet it seems more intense to my eyes, perhaps because of what she is t

He holds his hands out in front of him, conjuring a giant ball of black energy and purple electricity. I watch as it draws darkness into itself, but then I notice where the energy is coming from. As I glance around to the barely recognisable field, I see the eyti getting pulled towards it. I don’t think he’s even aware of what he’s doing, but he’s using them to power up his attack, and that’s one thing I can’t let happen.I glance at Zarseti who gives me an encouraging nod. She told me to trust my instincts, and that’s what I’m going to do.I reach out through my mind, feeling for Merlos’ thoughts. Her eyes connect with mine when she senses the connection, quirking an eyebrow at me. 'Merlos, I need you to blind every mortal around us,' I say urgently through my mind.Her brows deepen in confusion for only a second when realisation fills her expression and her mouth quirks up into a smirk of approval. 'Now that, I can do.' With a disinterested wave of her hand, she fills the eyes of ev
