Her voice was only a whisper when she said, "Caleb."
“Bella is not really looking for me, is she?” Eira asked as soon as they were far enough from Caleb.Damien shook his head, his eyes looking straight ahead. “No.”She smiled at him. “I’m surprised. You know her name and you keep referring to her as my red-haired friend. Anyways, where’s Dana?” “In the bathroom. Some problems with her dress,” He said flatly. Eira bobbed her and chewed her bottom lip. “Not that I needed your help, considering the fact that I was completely capable of doing a spell which I couldn’t do for obvious reasons…”Damien paused suddenly and she realised they were already inside. A slow song played and pairs danced to it in each other’s arms. “You were saying?” He asked, furrowing his brows. “Thank you,” Eira said and rolled her eyes. “You can let go now.”“What?” Eira nudged him with her free hand and asked, “Damien? What are you looking at?” She turned her eyes but found him staring intently at a wall.“Nothing,” He said, restless and his eyes finally met h
"What was that?" Bella asked with widened eyes. "A vampire? Eira, I'm scared!" Her breathing turned ragged. Her arm instinctively reached and grabbed Eira's arm but the witch didn't allow herself to panic. "Bella, you should go." Eira advised her but she shook her head. "I'm not leaving you," She said. Eira felt her hand growing clammier and colder with each passing second. With Bella's arm still around her, she walked towards the origin of the screams. They started to fade until the night was silent except for the restless running feets outside. Panicked girls and boys ran out of the room in a hurry, not caring if they stepped on each other's dresses. Some were crying, a few screaming. There was absolute chaos and Eira looked for Damien's face in the crowd. Had he attacked someone? No, he couldn't. It was too risky a task even though he seemed to not care. Finally, Eira reached the bathroom, the door of which was partially open. She touched it slightly and let it open fully be
"Are you enjoying yourself, Eira? Believe me it's only going to get worse."Dove raised one of her hands and conjured an apple out of thin air. It rested on her palm and Eira watched, struggling to get out of the ropes. She opened her mouth to whisper a spell but instead a loud groan left it when Dove pressed the apple between her palms. Her head pounded with an ache so terrible, her eyes started to water.

[DAMIEN]The girl in his arms stayed still even though he continued to suck her blood. Her face turned the colour of sour milk. Damien knew he had to stop but the urge was stronger than ever. When her knees buckled, he tore his teeth away from her neck. She closed her eyes, causing a flood of panic in him. This was no place to kill someone. There were people around, although it seemed hard to believe that since the music that was
As the time moved closer to midnight, the streets of Orilon emptied. Cold winds rustled the leaves fallen on the roads, lifting them, only for the wind to vanish a while later, bringing the leaves back to the ground.

Alexander nodded again, his mind seemingly miles away from the Black Hall and with steady, slow steps started walking out of the dank, dark room.I hope it will prepare you for also losing the rest of your army, she wanted to warn him but
[JOSH]Even ten days after the massacre at the Black Hall, not a single soul involved that day could stop thinking about how all of it could've been prevented if only a few trustful, true words had been exchanged. The effect was seen on each one. Many lost their lives and many others people who they cared about. The signs of recovery however were blooming all around. People were forgiven for their bad deeds out of the kindness of the hearts of those who had been at the suffering end. Surprising to Josh, Eira had been strangely calm about having Raven in the mansion. The latter refused to return to the Black Hall and although she denied it, the warlock knew, deep inside she was mourning for Alexander. Nate—another surprise to him—had been chosen to represent the vampires in the supernatural coucil. The bloodsuckers had been oddly agreeable and united about peace—again another surprise for the warlock."Are you giving up already?" Josh asked when he saw Eira lazily throw the herbs in
[JOSHUA]They did it together. Raven began muttering the spell as her hand came in contact with the talisman. The witches at the door didn’t even see it coming and before they knew it, the power of the
[EIRA]Somewhere along her way, Hela found her and did not miss the chance to pounce over the witch, pinning her to the cold, hard floor underneath. As the claws on her fingers dug into the skin of her shoulder, Eira screamed but also, the very next moment, she snapped her fingers, twisting Hela&rsq
[JOSHUA]The only way was to escape. They could neither not stop the hoard of vampires nor the werewolves. There were too many of them. And the witches had his mind in a knot. How could he somehow get rid of them? They were only astral projecting. No spell could throw them off.
[EIRA]The moment she felt her feet touch the solid ground, Eira was pushed off balance. A stake she had stuffed in her pocket fell to the floor. She opened her eyes and gasped loudly.
[EIRA]Josh held her arm as she inched closer to Damien. The vampire suddenly dropped to his knees and covered his face. He was crying.Trish's corpse lay in front of them, her eyes wid
[RAVEN]"We need to leave today, Alex. Have you packed yet? Or you need any help?" She said swaying her arms around, pretending to ignore the lines on his forehead."How dare you?" Alexander barked at her before she could draw in a single breath.Raven stared into his eyes, her brows raised in confusion. "Is everything okay?"His jaws clenched together tighthly, making her frown. What had made him this angry in the morning?"How dare you betray me?" He shouted at her with a voice that made her flinch. "I raised you like my own daughter, took you in when the people who you shared blood with cursed and kicked you out and this is how you repay me?""I don't know what you mean?" She raised her head but even she could not miss the uncertainty in her own voice."Claudia, Nigel, Ben, Will. Is that enough or do I need to elaborate?" The vein of his temple seemed ready to burst any second. But all she really cared about at that moment was how
[RAVEN]When Raven woke up that morning, she could not help but notice the unusual quiet surrounding her. The ruins of the Black Castle, now known as the Black Hall, housed a hundred town vampires, most of which were labelled with the Mark of Aurora. As soon as the sun rose, they would bustle around
