Anna was shaking right now. Even in the dark, she knew Lucian could see her every expression, but she didn't care. Right now, she didn't care. This reminded her of every guy who started avoiding her like she had a plague each time she told them she was a virgin. She had to lie to Alma that she had sex with one dude back in college and had to say that the sex was terrible. Was she going to continue this way? Lie that she wasn't a virgin just for validation? No, she wasn't. If Lucian didn't want her, he could go fuck himself. Or wait. Was she not beautiful enough? Didn't she have a nice body? Did she have belly fat? Saggy boobs? Bad breath or body odor? Maybe he used that opportunity of her being a virgin to stop. That wasn't the reason. Every girl was a virgin before a man fucked them. She nodded. Yes, there was something. It wasn't about her virginity. Had she done too much by being in control for that little amount of time? What if Lucian was amused and tried so
Anna'S POV. What if we all reincarnated? The only problem is that we don't know if we once lived. We start a new life not knowing we were once on Earth living totally different lives. I die, everyone cries and says nice things they don't mean. I get buried and everyone thinks I'm in heaven. Or hell. I've gone to be with the Lord or Satan. But it's a different case entirely when I, the dead one, experiences the unexpected. Everything seems hazy because I'm in transit to an unknown destination. There's a cloud of darkness I can't see. I feel it around me, suffocating. Am I hallucinating? I know I'm moving but I can't feel my locomotion. I'm alone, which is weird. I thought someone was supposed to accompany me into the land of the dead. Suddenly, there's a swooshing sound. Reminds me of the series 'Flash'. My eyes are open, but I can't see anything. I can only hear, and it's not a good feeling at all. There's this blood-and-guts terror surging through my– what? I
From afar off, I can see thick gray clouds covering whatever is before us. As we trudge forward, it seems like we're walking to our doom, I can feel the dark energy; it tastes like rage and maddening strength, feels wraith-like. Its effect is overwhelming, I can't speak. Even Nothing is affected because he lets out a low groan. "This is the Doom Portal," he grinds out. "This is the entrance to Condemnation Hall. Brace up, earthling." It takes 2 minutes for us to cross the portal, but it feels like an hour. After we sail through the portal successfully, a flying Sceptre appears out of nowhere and comes at us with unnerving speed. I try to scream, frightened by the force of its attack, but Nothing clamps his hand over my mouth and muffles my screams. "Don't scream!" he hisses into my ear. "You'll only put yourself into danger and slip out of existence." I nod frantically and cover my mouth with my hands as soon as Nothing's rough hands release me. I'm sure I look a
She woke up with a jump start. She was sweating profusely and when she touched her face, there were tear streaks on her cheeks. What had she just seen in her dream? Had to be the most vivid dream she had ever dreamt. Anna was scared, even in her state of consciousness. What was that dream about reincarnation? She sat up on her bed and rubbed her eyes, still recovering from the dream she just had. She was totally disoriented and found it hard to get accustomed to her environment. From that strange being she had encountered in her dream to the dwarf that had pushed her into another world, she could not figure out a damned thing that made sense. She had been having weird dreams ever since her arrival at this estate but last night was the strangest of all. The time read twelve fifty seven on the wall clock. Few minutes to one o'clock. She was awake late today, again and out of reflex, she turned to check if Alma had awoken only to find the bedside empty. Then it al
Wendy took Anna's hand and pulled her towards the stairs. Anna followed, her heart at the pit of her stomach. ★ Lucian, as early as nine in the morning had been awoken by a body jumping on him. He sat up immediately and pushed the intruder off him with irritation evident on his face. "What are you doing here uninvited?" He questioned, making sure she didn't miss the tone of irritation that coated his voice. A shrug. "I came for the festival." Lucian was getting angrier. Everything about her annoyed him, especially the too feminine voice she faked. "The festival isn't till next Tuesday and it's a universal festival, meaning it can be celebrated in every pack worldwide." The lady pouted and sat up in his bed. She bent and picked up her handbag lying across the floor of his room. Unzipping the bag, she fished out a card. An invitation card. "This." She shoved into his face. Lucian opened it and read it's contents.
10,000 years in the past( Continuation )A frown settled on Lucian's face as he picked up an unfamiliar but disturbing scent.They were not alone and whatever is in their room with them is giving out a deadly, powerful energy.Lucian didn't like this feeling at all.Immediately he became in a state of alert as his eyes carefully scanned around and his nose kept busy, trying to sniff out the location of the intruder.The scent led him to the bathroom and he slowly walked towards that direction but paused halfway to glance over at his wife, Anna where she still lay peacefully in the bed.Looking at his wife's beautiful face just made Lucian feel more protective and determined to kill who or whatever the intruder is.Stepping into the bathroom he took his time to study his environment...there was no one here but he could still smell the presence of someone or something. In fact the scent was much stronger here and that only made him feel nervous and very cautious.He might just be deal
Location: Grenalia Throne RoomKing Stefan sat in his mighty throne addressing the members of his council when suddenly a soldier barged into the count room unannounced.“Sorry for my rudeness, my king." The soldier quickly prostrated.“What is it?" The king Stefan asked, looking a bit disturbed and upset.The soldier stood up properly.“Our watchmen just spotted the red fang flag of the vampires close to our borders." The king stood up abruptly from his seat as he heard the news.“The vampires are here?" His face went pale in worry.The presence of the vampires only means one thing, death!“Get the soldiers ready to defend the people of Grenalia. Hurry up!" The king ordered.★“Thank you for the meal," Anna said, smiling to the servants that brought her breakfast and that of her husband's to the room.The maids smiled awkwardly but happily as they never expected a princess who also happens to be a queen to thank them for doing anything. This was their duties as maid and they were n
Outside of the walls of Grenalia.The Dark Queen Kleo sat proudly on her black, mighty and elegant horse gazing up at the high walls that protect the Kingdom and people of Grenalia which stood some distance ahead of her with her mighty vampire army behind her. Although she came here for a peaceful business deal Kleo made sure to come fully armed and prepared in case things didn't go as planned and most especially to put the fear in the hearts of men as a reminder of how powerful and strong the vampires are.She had more than half of her army with her and they were all equipped and battle prepared.“My Queen, a message has been sent to Grenalia that we are here for a peaceful meeting." One of her soldiers' came to report.“Good, now let's see if the race of man is brave enough to let vampires enter freely into their city." Kleo said with a smug on her face.She was actually enjoying the whole drama that was happening as she could sense that the whole kingdom of Grenalia were tensed b
