"Baby, do you have everything packed?" Miall shouted, and I quickly closed my laptop and pulled on my sunhat.Fuck."Yeah, I'm coming," I shouted as I shoved it into my bag. "Could we stop by the council first and get those forms?" I asked as I joined him in the living room."No," he said without giving it a thought. "And get that laptop out of your bag," he pointed to the beach bag I held firmly close to my side."What laptop?" I looked away."Amanah," he crossed his arms over his chest, and I groaned, taking out the device and putting it on the coffee table."Including all those files in there," he said, and I pouted. "Out, now."Oh, come on!"I really need to read about the introduction of the new laws, or else I'll be so unprepared when we come back," I begged, and he shook his head."It's our anniversary, and you should focus only on me." Oh? Is the seduction already starting?"But Miall," I whined, and he took the bag from me and emptied it."Jesus, Amanah, you don't have anythin
"Do you wanna take a shower together?" I asked Miall as I lifted my head from his lap."Yes," he agreed immediately as he slid his hands under my neck and knees, respectively, walking us to the bathroom. He sat me down on the vanity and grunted. "Arms."I lifted my arms, and he tore off his shirt; I looked at the buttons popping off in horror. Why would he do that?"Ah," I squeaked, looking at the shirt. "I liked this one," I whispered, and he shrugged."I have more husband shirts for you," he blushed, and I smiled, touching his ears. He kissed my fingers and leaned towards me. "It's really taking everything in me not to jump on you right now," he whispered in my ear, and I laughed, hugging him."If you do that, you might squash me to death," I whispered back, and he snorted as he leaned back."Let's take a shower, yes?""Yes," I nodded as he walked us to the shower and opened the water."What the heck!" I screamed as I felt the cold water rush over me. Miall only smirked and coyly apo
My stomach fluttered as I watched him close his eyes and softly kiss my lips. Was he always this attractive? Definitely, but this attractive? I swear it was the first I was seeing this.I bit down on my hand as he latched onto my clit and sucked on it tenderly. My toes curled slightly as I pushed down my hips toward him"Sit still," he looked up at me, and if I could do summersaults right now, I would. Seeing Miall so turned on made my heart beat faster, and his darkened eyes made me wetter.Running his tongue down my lips, I clenched my fists to stop myself from moving around. He pushed my thighs higher and kept a firm grip on them as he ate me out."Miall," I moaned, feeling funny. His fingers dug into my skin as his tongue reached as far as it could, which was further than my fingers ever could.Miall pulled my hand, took two of my fingers and pressed them to my centre."Touch yourself," he said huskily, looking at me, and shock took over my body, but the lust was just as strong. "G
"Amanah, you can't still be embarrassed," Miall said as I slurped my second drink."I said I don't know you," I gritted as I stared at the full-blown party.When Miall and I left our hotel room, our neighbour thought it would be nice to remind us of how loud we were and how they heard everything. I meant everything and then proceeded to invite us out to this party."Baby, come on," he pulled me by my hips and pressed his face on my neck. "The way you're drinking that, I'd rather it be me," he whispered in my ear, and I gasped as I looked at him."Miall, we're in front of people!""They didn't hear a thing over this loud music," he kissed my temple."Perhaps you're forgetting they're not human but are a part of your species and others; you can hear anything from quite far away," I said, and he shrugged. "You're spoilt.""And I love you for that," he said as he wrapped his arms around my waist. "Now stop drinking so much. I don't want you passed out tonight...well, I do, but I want to be
An electronic beep brought me out of my sleep; I slowly opened my eyes and was immediately welcomed by a white ceiling.So bright.The hotel room's ceiling was white; it must've been a dream! I rose up quickly and looked around the room for signs of Miall, but I was in a hospital room.The IV needle lodged deeply in my flesh, and my body clothed in an ugly overall. I still searched for Miall."Ah, you're finally awake," I turned to my right, and a man sat on the chair with his legs crossed as he paged through a magazine. "I was starting to wonder if you were dead too."I stared at him in silence, registering confirmation that he was gone; my husband was dead?"You're probably wondering who I am. I found you passed out on the road with your husband next to you with three bodies surrounding you guys.""Where is he?" My voice croaked, and my hand touched my neck to soothe the ache. "Where's Miall?" I asked, and the man smiled as he squinted his eyes."I'll take you to him," I got off the
"Don't pass out again," the man said as soon as I woke up. Don't piss me off, was what I wanted to reply with, but I had to comply with him. I still had no idea what was going on.I sat before him as he had his breakfast, which consisted of just meat.I studied his features as I sat there silently. A scar ran down from his cheek to his lips, and his eyes were amazingly white with little speckles of black to give them character. His dark hair had streaks of white decorating it. His face was covered by a beard, which gave him a masculine look. He almost looked like Kye."I know I'm attractive, but you don't have to look at me so hard," he looked up from his plate."Where are my children?" I asked him. "And why are we in this castle?" He put down his cutlery and leaned back in his seat."Which question do you want me to answer?" He asked, raising his eyebrows."Both." He laughed, wiped his lips, and shook his head as he looked around the dining room."I grew up here long ago, so I wanted
"What do yo—what's going on here?" I asked Nyleve as I shook my head. Looking at Kye, the man who had no name until now, I asked, "You're Kye?""I used to be Kye," he grinned as he pushed his hands into his pockets, smirking. "He's dead," he looked at Nyleve."Don't talk about yourself in the third person," Nyleve snapped, and he chuckled."Evander, that's my name. Now that we all know each other's names, let's be on our way, yes?""You're supposed to be dead," I trailed off as I stared at him."And I'm not. Let's go," he gripped my arm, pulling me out of the room."You're just like your father," Nyleve whispered as she looked away, which made Evander halt in his steps and clench his jaw while his fingers dug into my skin."Father?" He whispered before chuckling and shaking his head. "Yeah," he dragged out as he continued pulling me out of the house."I can walk by myself," I snapped as I pulled my arm from his hold and clutched my duffle bag against my chest."Sure, whatever," he wave
"Stop glaring so hard at me," Evan finally snapped as I stared at him. It had already been two weeks since we moved here, and he had never let me out.Living with him had not been in the least pleasant, but he hadn't bothered us lately, and I was grateful, but that didn't stop me from hating him."Your son, he's alright now, isn't he?" He asked, I didn't respond.I tilted my head to the side and glared at him as he turned the pages of the book he was reading.Only if it could catch fire and burn his fingers."Can you just let me know what you're thinking!" He closed the book and stood up from his throne. I scoffed and crossed my arms over my chest."Why are you here?" I asked as I looked at him. Crossing my legs, I made myself comfortable on the chair, and he squinted."What do you mean?""You haven't made your goal clear; all you've done so far is throw a tantrum and kill my alpha," I said as I studied his features and posture. "You don't do any paperwork or any alpha work at that. Al
Miall"Where are you guys going?" I asked Amanah as she held Amira and Auri's hands.They were dressed in matching pink sun dresses, and Amanah wore a cute hat while the twins rocked pink bow hairpins.My girls are beautiful!"We're going on a girl's date," Amanah said as she smiled. "We're just waiting on Maniah.""Alright, let me get my keys, and we'll go together," I said as I pointed to the kitchen, and the girls voiced their opinions."No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no," Auri shook her head as she waved her small hands."You stay right here," Amari warned as she pointed a finger at me."It's a girl's date, Dad," Maniah said as she passed me; unlike the three, she wore jeans and an oversized hoodie."What are you wearing?" Her mother asked as she took in her attire. "I thought we agreed on wearing sun dresses?""No, the three of you agreed on wearing pink clothes, and I agreed to come along," Maniah shrugged as she raised her book.Amanah pouted and rolled her eyes."Teenagers," s
"Woah, it's really her," I heard as I felt tiny fingers touch my face and giggles.What's going on?"When was the last time we saw her?" Another voice sniffled, and I heard a thud."Stop crying, Kenji," a softer voice said as she hiccupped."What are you all doing here? She's resting," that voice.I knew it all too well.It belonged to the owner of the phone that was in my pocket.Wait a minute, where are my pockets? I touched my sides and felt a soft, silky material covering my body.Waking up, I blinked as I stared at the ceiling."She's up. Shhh," one of them said, a younger male. Two faces that looked alike stared at me with gummy smiles, and I frowned."Why did you guys put Amira and Auri on her bed?" Miall scolded as he walked closer to the bed."They just climbed on their own. They're old enough to do that already," the soft voice said as she took the other baby away from me.Sitting up, I held my head and groaned, feeling a slight ache. Looking around the room, my eyes paused o
I wiped the counter thoughtlessly as I stared ahead. On all the days this bar could be empty, it chose today?Only a few regulars were here and none of them were exciting."You should plaster a smile on that face, Amanah," I stared at Frank with an annoyed look, and he laughed as he flipped the cocktail shaker in the air and caught it with his right hand behind his back, show off."What are you even doing here?""I came to help," I whined as I leaned against the counter and stared at Frank as he worked."You're scaring my customers away; look attractive," he scolded, and I widened my eyes."But I am attractive," I pulled my overalls and stared at him, disappointed. "Anyway, I had this dream, right," I started excitedly, and he put his hand up."Tell me all about it after you serve that customer over there. He only ever comes here whenever you visit," he said, and I raised my eyebrow."So you think it's safe for me to go serve a potential stalker?""Uh, yes. I have bills to pay, Miss Mi
Third Person"What caused you to wake up, Supreme Goddess?" Seifer asked as he stood up from his kneeling position."All the persons I created from my guilt have finally passed on, so that freed me from my prison," Lunaria smiled as she answered."Are you really free from your guilt?" Ylil asked as she glared at Lunaria."No," Lunaria answered simply. "Are you free from your guilt, Ylil?" She asked as she stared into her eyes."I have none," Ylil bit out, and Lunaria nodded as she looked around her temple."That is sad," she whispered.Her eyes landed on Miall, who was still having a hard time breathing. He pressed his head on the ground, writhing in pain."You're the one that's sad!" Ylil shouted, and all the other gods gave her a warning look.Even though they didn't agree with Lunaria's decisions, they still were obligated to protect her."I know," Lunaria said as she kept her eyes on Miall's form. "What's wrong with them?" She asked as she pointed to Miall. "Why have you sealed Ori
Lunaria POV"Are you just gonna stand by the door?" I asked.The day was so heavy today and I was truly exhausted. I lay on my bed face-front refraining from screaming."It's so crazy how you've become so aware of everything since you became the Supreme Goddess," Orion chuckled as he entered my room."I have eyes everywhere now," I said. "And they're all weeping," I whispered as I got up and faced him."Come on, it's not that bad," he smiled as he sat beside me, and pressed a soft kiss on my shoulder. "You're just under a lot of stress.""I really thought I'd just be a disciple at best, Ylil is most suited for this role," I said as I leaned against him."You've been saying that for three years already, but you were chosen for this role because you have something Ylil doesn't have," he said as he massaged my head."What is it that I have besides being terrible at making decisions? I'm not even a scholar," I grumbled. "That feels really good," I sighed closing my eyes."You're empathetic.
Orion held my hips as we kissed in the dark alleyway, his hands slowly trailing down my thighs to my ass, where he gently squeezed.Lifting me up and pressing against the wall, he grunted as he sucked on my tongue and pressed himself against me.I moaned as his hand rubbed my thigh softly, his teeth bit into my bottom lip, and I pressed my chest against his.Pulling away from the kiss, Orion stared at me with drunk eyes, and I believe I gave him just a lust-filled gaze. Without saying anything, he helped me down and held my hand, guiding me through the alleyway.Orion would occasionally squeeze my hand, and I would squeeze his back just to let him know I was okay. I couldn't believe that had happened. Was he mad? Did he like it as much as I did? I want to kiss again.Biting onto my bottom lip, I sighed softly, feeling the pain from his bite. Orion turned around and stared at my lips. Moving in closer, he held my chin and released my bottom lip from between my teeth."Don't do that," he
ℭ𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔲𝔯𝔦𝔢𝔰 𝔄𝔤𝔬"So, how was the exam!?" Ylil asked me as she wrapped her arm around my shoulder and exited the examination centre."Argh, don't even ask me about it! At this rate, I won't even make it to being a disciple," I groaned as I wrapped my arm around her waist."That bad, huh?" She whispered as she held me tighter."Seriously bad," I whispered, feeling the tears form."I probably will just be a normal human by next month," I gulped as I roughly wiped my tears."Aria," she said softly."Enough about me, how was the exam for you!?""Hmm, it was okay," she nodded and I knew she was saying it was okay so that I wouldn't have to feel alone."It was super easy, wasn't it?" I asked her, smiling, and she clenched her teeth."Yeah, sorry," she whispered, and I laughed, shaking my head."You don't have to be sorry that I was born a bit dumber than you," I joked, and she stopped walking, looking furious. She hated it when I would be negative or mean to myself."A bit challenged
Third Person"What just happened?" Evander whispered as he stared at the broken window where Orion stood. "Where's Amanah?"Looking at Ylil, she had an unreadable expression as she held Auri in her arms, and Miall stared out the broken window blankly.Evander ran downstairs.Reaching where she had fallen, his steps slowed as he looked around the courtyard."What the?" He panicked as he looked for her. "Where is she?" He looked up at the third floor, wondering if he had been deceived."Hmm?" Ylil groaned as she looked at the spot where Amanah's lifeless body was supposed to be."Where is she?" She gritted as she stared at Evander."I should be asking you! I knew you were a sketchy bitch the moment you showed up," Evander roared, pointing his finger at Ylil. "And you!"He turned to face Miall.Evander felt rage coursing through his veins; his heart broke for Amanah. He knew what it was like to be killed by someone you loved."How could you do that to her?" He asked as he approached him.
I stared at the huge statue that Evander had fished from the water. It looked exactly like the one I saw in my dream when drowning in the ocean."So, nothing?" Evander asked as he put his hands on his hips, waiting expectedly.I slowly shook my head and gave him an apologetic look."No, I can't sense anything. It's just stone," I shrugged, and he sighed as he dropped his head."Just stone?" He squeaked out as he kicked a rock on the ground. "She's just stone!""Maybe it needs sacrifice?" I tried, and he looked at me, amused but mostly annoyed."What kind of crappy neighbourhood did you grow up in? Sacrifice? No, her stone body won't crack because her soul isn't here anymore," he said as he pointed between me and the stone."Well, where is her soul?" I asked, amused at how stressed he was about all of this."It was in you. It's probably buried deep somewhere in all that anguish you keep to yourself.""Anguish?" I asked, smiling. "I'm happy," I shrugged, and he groaned as he rolled his e
