~Tiffany~ I groaned as the alarm rang loudly,“Fridginfucking alarm,” I gritted my teeth as I sluggishly put off the alarm.I tried to get back to my sleep but then I shot my eyes open.‘AJ!’ I scrambled out of my bed, still slightly disoriented, a smile formed on my lips as I remembered sleeping in his embrace yesterday and also the promise he made to me. I crept over to the window and peered out, hoping to catch a glimpse of my mysterious neighbor. But the window was closed and the curtains were drawn, I felt a pang of disappointment and sadness. Many thoughts filled my head as I sluggishly entered the bathroom.My mood was sour, and ‘The What Ifs’ in my head kept ringing consistently.What if he didn't keep his promise?What if AJ was taunting me?What if he had packed away?What if he is going to go back to the way he was?I kept stabbing my food without any remorse, I kept sighing, slumping my shoulders, forgetting the fact that I was having breakfast with my family.“Tiffany
~Tiffany~As I climbed the stairs to the top floor, my hands trembled as I wondered whether AJ would show up or not. During biology class, I sent him a message on paper telling him to come after the class. My heart was pounding as I reached the top floor, taking a deep breath I opened the door, with my hopes high.A smile tugged at the corner of my mouth as I saw him right in front of me. He had his normal straight face on, his aura was chilling but cool and his jet-black hair made him look so daring the way he fixed his honey eyes on me made my heart flutter. His hands were inside his pocket as he stood still.“You can stare all you want later, but not now,” His voice disrupted my thoughts, my face flushed, I coughed lightly trying to comport myself, also trying to look away from him before I started thinking dirty about him.“I have something to say… more like I want to ask you a question,” He said after a long pause. I batted my eyes, still fighting the crazy urge to think dirty a
~AJ~“Stop bothering her,” Denali implored, more like threatening me, a snort erupted from my lips as I looked at her in disdain.“I thought you don't speak our language, what happened?” I sneered at the siragon in a mocking tone.“Heed to my words Vamp, Don't bother her,”“I don't see myself bothering her and you don't get to tell me what to do” I replied with a touch of sarcasm while arching my brows to the side.“Tiffany doesn't know anything about helping me escape from your lair that night,” Denali conveyed. “What do you mean? Wasn't she there with you?” I queried, trying to suppress my curiosity.“I summoned her, the thing is quite complicated-”“Make it non-complicated and explain thoroughly,” I interrupted her harshly, I gnashed my teeth as I howled indicating that I had low patience and she should say whatever it was she wished to say fast.“Quit that act Vamp, I'm not scared of you,” She tells me.“Oh! Really,” my claws were already out, ready to pin this lowly siragon and
~Tiffany~“I didn't expect you would be home this soon, what's wrong Tiffany? Did anyone hurt you in school? Did you encounter any creature- Oh! My, did you pull off the necklace?” Dad gasped, he had this worried look on his face as he checked my body for any injury.Tears strolled down my cheeks, it was so much that it clouded my eyes.That's what I hate, making my dad worry about me, I hate that I am not able to help him and now AJ makes me feel so little of myself.What's the use of being my comfort for a day and the next you ruin it? I hate you AJ!And I mean it.He is so mean!!I kept crying, venting everything in my heart through the tears that poured.“Tell me Tiffany, what's wrong?” hearing his voice again, I sniffled.“I-i just h-hate being weak, I-I don't want to be pitied,” my voice was croaked, I sounded terribly pitiable and I despised it.“You are not weak Tiffany, you are very strong, and I don't pity you, I'm afraid of how powerful you would be, I'm scared of how stro
~Tiffany~“Alden-” I heard the voice of my doppelganger say, walking in the direction where the voice came from. Lo and behold, sexy AJ was without a shirt, the only clothing on him was wool shorts. His abs were well-defined, his skin smooth and tanned that I myself could not help but drool, damn AJ is Hot!I shifted my gaze to my doppelganger, who gulped nothing.She was stunned to see AJ like this and the air between them was charged with an undeniable electricity.“Looks like you are amazed by what you see mate,” AJ teased, damn his Masculine voice.“Have you no fear Vamp boy, what if they see you,” She said, glancing at the door, her voice had this worried tone in it or was I dreaming?“I do not care about them, just you,” He tells her with so much affection.“Don't be stupid Alden,” My doppelganger sneered.“You care about me and that's why you stayed far away from me. You act like you hate me but you and I know that you feel the opposite. I know how you try to fill up your desi
~Tiffany~“Nooo!!!” I woke up, my breathing fogging up unsteadily.I looked at my surroundings, I was already in my room.I am not dead!Should I feel relieved or not, my doppelganger's behavior is already getting out of hands.She went berserk. I need to stop her but how?Who was I going to tell?Who was going to believe me?I tried going back to sleep so I could go back there and help her calm down, but I couldn't. I sluggishly took my necklace that was underneath my pillow and placed it back where it was meant to be.I scrambled off the bed, rambled to the window and opened the curtains. I just needed to watch AJ for a while before hatching a plan on how to leech on him forever.I wouldn't want him committing the same mistakes again.“You're still awake!” Those words flew out of my mouth as I saw AJ standing on his balcony, his clothes a little bit rough and torn.There were scratches on his body like he had fought with someone.“Wait! Did you fight with someone?” I questioned wit
~AJ~I just came back from the woods, hoping to see my mate sleeping soundly, to my dismay Tiffany had already closed the curtains, blocking me from seeing her beautiful face. The only thing I could hear was her heartbeat which indicated that she was already asleep.I exhaled deeply, having it in mind that I should get used to this, as I turned to enter the bathroom an ominous shadow stopped me. My ears perked up as I could hear the gnashing of teeth and growls with blows passing each other.Something was going on down there and using my acute hearing ability, I was able to trace the sound and sped tracked to the area. “Bloody Wendigo!” I spat out as I helped Denali stop them from hurting her.Swoosh! I cut down one of the Wendigo hands with my claws, and then I sucked the remaining energy into my body leaving him lifeless, perks of being a psychic vampire.I can live without blood for decades as long as there is enough energy to suck.One of the Wendigos tried to sneak an attack on
~Tiffany~“Good morning Dad,” I greeted with a bright smile on my face as I descended the stairs.“Morning sweetie, I guess your night was perfect as I see you beaming with a smile, that's good,” Dad said as he patted my hair lightly.“Of course, it was a beautiful night and I've come to terms with myself, I'm good now.” Why won't it be fine when I slept in AJ's embrace yesterday which was so amazing and surreal.To be clear, he didn't sleep in my room, that would be too fast in our current relationship right?Wait what current relationship are we in?Could we be considered friends as per he replied to my first message?What if he was going to go back to being a scorn bag again?But he smiled at me, well, you got me, I lied, he just had his regular cold face on when he glanced at me through his window.That's a good start, right?“Stop staring like that, you look horrible,” Dad said as he shoved the pancake into my mouth without pity.[SCHOOL..] “Zayne,” I called immediately, I sigh
~Tiffany~ I just didn't know how to feel right now with Zayne in front of me. He looked so not him and I could see he was ashamed to look back at me.Tension hangs in the air as I confront the aftermath of his betrayal. What he did hurt me? I felt betrayed but it wasn't as much as what I'd felt when I knew Dad was the mastermind of all this.Dad's dead but that doesn't mean my nightmares are spared. He still haunts me at night and I'm glad Axel is here to go through all this with me.When I heard Zayne was still alive and that he was in the dungeon, I felt scared remembering what he did to me and relieved he was still alive. Axel said it's better I dished out the punishment myself rather than him which I'm grateful for. Now that Zayne was in front of me, I certainly had no punishment for him. I knew why he did this even though it was selfish and stupid but it was a way for him to protect me or so he thought. I exhaled deeply, my lips pressed in a thin line before I opened my mo
~Axel~ It's been two weeks since the battle and my Mate has not woken up. I've been in the room all day, hoping she would at least blink her eyes or move any part of her body. The door opened and Father walked in, he's been the one handling pack issues. We haven't had the time to talk about what had happened before the battle or after. He deserves an apology for my uncalled attitude.“I'm sorry–” I paused my words before taking a deep breath.“I'm sorry for accusing you about the siragon. I was wrong and I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions without investigating,” I apologized, my gaze still focused on my mate.“It's not your fault. I was acting obsessively about the Siragon. Everyone thought my brother was the one who killed his mate but I didn't believe it. I knew something was off when that wizard came out alone with blood on his body, I should have investigated well then maybe this mess wouldn't have happened. Somehow I'm glad it did happen because you found your mate.”“Yeah,
~Axel~ The fight was such a bloody one, I had tried to reach up to my mate but that fucked up demon which escaped from hell and those bloody wendigos rushed at me. I had to fight them off, they weren't strong but their numbers helped a lot. When they all disappeared into thin air, I knew that the battle had ended. My mate had killed her father and she rose triumphantly in the air, I could feel how weak she was. I needed to get to her side before she collapsed, she landed in my arms when she fell. I panicked immediately and rushed out with her in my hands. I needed to take her to the pack ASAP, so Jackob could check what was wrong with her. I just hope it's nothing serious. ‘I will take care of the mess and the wizard,' Dexter mindlink to me but I ignored him. My focus was only on my mate and nothing else. When I got to the pack, I saw Dad and some elders there waiting, the anxiousness on his face was washed away, but I did not care.All I wanted was for my mate to be safe.I drop
~Maggie~ “You are a disappointment to the clan and I regret the day I gave birth to you,” My voice was low but loud enough for everyone outside to hear. I shook my head as I stared at Zayne, the boy who was once softhearted and cheerful turning out to be someone who I did not recognize.“I did it for us. You were not planning to do anything when the vampire kidnapped Tiffany and now that I did something you are disappointed in me, what a life,” He snorted, I could not hide my disbelief.He just didn't get what he did, he doesn't even know the consequences of his actions.I bet Alfie told him what he wanted to use Tiffany for.“You think you are helping, You are only doing it for your selfish reason. Also, go check and see what damage you've caused to Tiffany.” I did not want to speak much, I wanted him to see for himself what Alfie was doing to Tiffany. He rushed inside and we followed suit, Regina was torn and hurt. I understand her despair, I could feel it too.I bet she's alrea
~Axel~ 24 hours had passed and yet no news about my mate. Today is the day I was going to fully make her mine but then some bullshit psychos decided to enrage me.“Oh, my!” Maggie let out a cry which elicited a growl from my mouth, we were stuck at her place. She and Gina were trying their best to locate my mate and her fucked up Dad. He's been missing too since yesterday with that lowly Wizard.How can I make an exemption for him as a suspect?Damn, such a fucked up mistake. I should have not let him in.“What?” I sneered at her, of course, she wasn't at fault, but her son was the reason for all this.“Could someone please check the sky for me, tell me how dark it is. I need to confirm something first,” She said in a scary tone which still made me agitated, but Dexter went out to check.“Damn, it's really dark. Like Dark Dark, normal humans can't see at this rate and the moon is Dark, just the outline to know that it's the moon. Something like an eclipse,”“Oh, no!” Her lips tremble
~Tiffany~“Now, where should I start from,” Dad smacked his lips as if he had forgotten where to start from. “Right, let me start from the gruesome part. The part where that Filthy blood-sucking animal came to claim your Mom, my Elisa as his Mate. That day, I had never felt this vengeful anger in me, your mom and I were playing in the garden with you, talking about how life in the future would be with you beside us. You were four then, our pretty little princess Hecate bestowed on us. I loved you even before I set my eyes on you, you made your mom happier, she smiled when you were in her stomach even though you made her weak, always sick. I could not bring myself to hate you because you made her happy and when she held you, my heart fluttered as tears of joy streamed down her face. I cried too because she cried. That's how much I loved your mom.”“All of a sudden he comes to our doorstep, snarling his teeth calling your Mom, My Elisa, his mate. I tried to fight him off, but you
~Tiffany~ Darkness enveloped me, a deep unsettling void where time seemed to lose its meaning. I was floating in a sea of nothingness, unaware of where I was or how I got there. It was a disorienting sensation, like being adrift in a dream without a clear beginning or end. It was far different from what I'd seen when I was in my past. Then suddenly, I felt a sharp, jolting sensation– Cold water splashing over my body. It was a shock to my system, my senses screamed to life as the cold seeped into my skin jolting me awake. Gasping for air, I bolted upright, my heart racing in my chest. I blinked rapidly trying to shake off the remnants of unconsciousness into my head.“Ha, finally, you decided to be awake,” I heard the one familiar voice I wasn't expecting. It is too similar, I guess I'm still in a dream. I shook my head, trying to get back to reality. Probably because I felt my mind was messing with me because of what I had figured out earlier– I'm talking about Zayne. His bet
~Zayne~ I stared at the unconscious brunette-haired witch, many thoughts ransacked my head but the one dominating was me wishing Tiffany and I could be in a different situation. It hurts me to see her being chained to a chair, but if this is what would make her go back to her senses then I have no choice but to do this. My mind wandered to the night I was proposed to this deal, I was in my studio painting aggressively as usual and there he came in out of the blues and unwelcomed. He says, “Tiffany needs to come home, if you love her enough to make her go back to her right senses then bring her back home before the next full moon.” It was crazy but I accepted because it was the right thing to do and I don't regret it. I jolted back into reality when she stirred, hearing her groan made my heart ache and I felt worried for her. I rushed to get a cup of water, “Tiffany,” I called, concern laced in my tone. “Zayne… Please help me,” Tiffany said immediately she found herself being
~Jessica~ “Don't you forget what to do tonight?” The black wizard reminded me again for the umpteenth time while I snickered.“You don't have to keep nagging. I know my job, now get out before I get pissed off,” I hissed. Even though I hate working with these people, they were the only ones who could help me achieve my goals. I know that the feeling is mutual, he also gets his shares from working on this.He wants the witch to himself while I want her out of here, if possible dead. She is a pain in my ass, so that isn't too much to ask. He scowled at me giving me the ‘don't you dare fuckin hurt her’ look. I rolled my eyes as I watched him leave, tch so annoying. ~~~ I took a deep relieving breath as I entered Tiffany's room, the maids were in the room preparing her for what's going to happen tomorrow which will eventually not take place as long as I lived.‘I have to do this because it would be in my favor.' I reminded myself as I fought hard not to use my claws on the maids and
