"What did you say?!" I scream into the phone. It hasn't been 10 minutes since my date with Drew started and we have already been bombarded with phone calls. First, it was Alex calling me to ask where my studded heels were and if she could wear that. She and Jasper are going to the club this evening so she had to wear those heels with her dress. Then it was Damien, who wanted to ask where were we and then he proceeded to ask Drew his recipes and if we could get some food for him because according to him, he has been hungry since ages. And right now, my dad has something very important that just can't wait until we come back and he just has to tell me right now, in the middle of my date. "I said that you need to come back soon. There is going to be a party and you are going to get crowned. We already discussed this, didn't we?" I cut him off. "No. We actually never talked about this. Like ever." I say and then he cuts me off. "Doesn't matter now. It was going to happen anyways and no
"I can't go. I am not going down. Nope." I collapse on the chair and shake my head. Alex who is dressed in a Purple and Silver gown which is very revealing and looks so tight but she moves effortlessly. She stops applying the lipstick for the millionth time and comes towards me. "You are. Stop being nervous. You can do this." She says and gestures Mia to come forward. Mia picks up her very heavy looking Green gown with embroidery. She stands up and sets my loose curled strand of hair. "I'd tell you to stay here but you don't have any other choice. Sorry, you gotta do this." She says and nods to Alex. They both pull me up from the chair and drag me to the door, ignoring my grunts and sighs. "You can do this. Trust me, you can. Besides, it will be a shame if this gorgeous dress went to waste." Alex whispers and the doors open. I hear multiple voices. "God, it's like the whole country got jammed in a tiny room. This is like my worst nightmare. I can't possibly go in there. Not happ
"Get off me, you motherfucker!" I push him off and wipe the blood on my cheek that doesn't seem to stop. The wound should've healed by now. My body tenses, and Alec takes my face in his hands with a very strong grip. I wince as his fingers graze the cut. "Hmm. These are spelled arrows. The wound won't heal properly yet. It will take much time to heal. probably days." He says very confidently that doubt fills my mind. "How do you know that?" I ask him, my brows furrowed. "I just do." He looks around and then takes my hand, " Come on, we have to go." I drop his hand and back up. "I am not going anywhere with you. Nope. Stay back." "I am trying to save you. Those rebels are here to hurt you, and right now it is my duty to protect you. You will be going whether you like it or not." He says and I look around in search of Drew or my family but there is no sign of him. There is chaos everywhere I turn, people screaming and running. "Where is my family? Drew?" I ask him. "They left. Th
Fuck. "What do you mean?" I mutter in a very low voice. Also, because that's how high my voice can go right now. My hands start shaking and he looks at them. He gets up and I gulp as he comes towards me. He kneels down and I flinch. He removes the rope from my wrists and I groan. "Why did you do that?" I say and massage my wrists. It still burns and the wounds have turned red. "I know you are not gonna attack me. It would be foolish to attack me, because I can have you on the ground in just a second. So, you can try if you want to." He takes his seat and smirks when I don't react. "Now, back to your question. I am your father's real older brother. I doubt if he told you that, so I will take the matter into my own hands. Back when we were young, your age to be precise. We both knew your mother, Qetsiyah. She was like sunshine in the winters. Charming to a fault. Way too sweet and caring. I warned her, you know. But she didn't listen, she was very stubborn, like you. Both of us wer
I run out and the whole place looks like a maze. A labyrinth of sorts. I look around and see two men, dressed in black, exactly like the men that attacked the coronation. I hide behind the wall and then realise that I forgot to pick up the knife. Shit. I'm already way too far from the room and if I go back now, thee is a higher chance that I will get lost so I choose not to move from my place. I take a breath in and an idea forms in my head. I close my eyes and reopen them. I focus on the place where the men are standing and I can feel the energy rising and slowly the ground starts shaking. I see the light on the ceiling and using my powers, throw that on their head. They both look at each other and then look around to find the source of this problem. I make the light flicker in the hallway and they quickly turn towards the passageway. As soon as they are out of my way, I rush forward. I anticipate a few more men standing guard ahead but shockingly, the place is empty. I don't know if
"Hello, princess." His smug voice shocks me to my core. Alec's body lays over mine and his stupid smirk is already there, adorning his stupid face. With wide eyes, I say, "Alec? What are you doing here?" Curiosity hits me. Plus lots of shock. He pushes my sweaty hair strands aside and grins. He takes the crown and gets up. He offers me his hand but I push it aside and stand up on my own. "Alec. Hand me the crown." Tobias grins, as if knowing already that he has won. "Oh, this old thing?" Alec tosses the crown back into air and Tobias audibly gasps. "Alec...." I look at him, hoping he does the right thing. I don't see why he would hand the crown to me. I have already lost this game before it even started. He looks into my eyes and tosses it to dad. "Alec!" Tobias shouts as dad catches the crown. "Tobias...your anger is with me. Don't involve my daughter in this mess. We can talk this out calmly like adults." Dad says. "Jonathon.....hand me the crown." Tobias glares. "Brother
EPILOGUE:"Rose...." I mutter and she turns her head to me. She drops the dagger raking with black goo and it thuds with a sharp clink. Her feet touches the floor and her eyes turn back to normal."Drew..." She smiles and comes towards me and I grin, opening my arms for her to place her head on. I turn to my family and watch as they all kneel down on the floor grinning. A gasp is heard loudly and I quickly turn my head back to Ana. I see a red tear falling down her cheeks and all breath is stolen from me. I stagger back and fall down on my knees as the tip of the dagger comes out of her chest and she winces. Her whimpers are enough to show me hell and I scream as she falls on his knees and that's when it all goes black and my skin starts turning to stone just like everyone else in the room. *_*Ana's POV:I see a bright light and the whole place is white. "Drew?" I ask out loud.Where am I? Is this...heaven or hell? "You aren't dead." Someone speaks up and I jump, startled. "Who
BLUE MOONPROLOGUE" Wake up. You are gonna be late. " My aunt Sarah said, sitting on my bed and pulling at my blanket. "Rise and shine," she said, smiling brightly. "Time to get ready for the day!"Aunt Sarah has been my guardian since mom and dad died in an accident . She has been taking care of me since then and has always been there to give a helping hand and motivate me to get up and seize the day. She constantly encourages me to do my best and reminds me to never give up, no matter how hard life may seem. She is in her thirties and the coolest person in the world." Hmm. Just one more minute please. " I whined in my sleep." Come on. You are already fifteen minutes late and I have to drop you too before I go to my job, so hurry up." She says."I know, I know," I grumbled, reluctantly climbing out of bed. "But I just need one more minute."I get up and rub my eyes. " Can't I skip today?" I give her my best puppy face but she doesn't fall for it. That is what happens when you live

"Ana! Stop!" Damien rushes towards me and pull me back. I almost choked the fucker and he deserved it. "How dare you come here?" I sneer. "You know him?" Kai asks me. "Yes, he left me in the museum. Alone with no way out. Tell him to leave or else I will fucking kill him." I say and my eyes turn dark. Glow starts radiating off my body and his eyes widen for a second but then he composes himself. "I'm afraid I can't leave. I am a part of this council and inner circle after all." He says smugly and folds his arms. "Make him leave." A demonic voice said, that I didn't recognise came from me until Kai visibly gulped and looked at me, scared. "Hey hey hey. Calm down, you sweet little... angel of a child?" Damien says, trying to get my attention and divert me and I unwillingly make the floor shake in response. "Well, she is feisty as hell." Alec says and sits down on the chair. I close my eyes in anger and my hands fist at my sides. A scream builds in my throat and I let it out. I
I threw a punch at Damien and my body feels like I just jumped down from a building.The whole day was going great, it started great and when Damien took me to the backyard of the mansion for training that's when I started regretting agreeing to this whole training.Now, I am in the middle of training and I am so exhausted I can't even tell.Keeping my chin low, I threw another punch, but Damien blocked it with his forearm and I pulled back, looking for an opening but still not getting one. So I closed my eyes and tried to remember the drill when I trained with Drew and his family. I created an opening by shifting my legs as if to kick and his arms dropped a fraction. I used that as my chance to swing. I slammed my fist into his hard stomach.Damien grunted and softly said, " Nice move. Who taught you that? You diverted my mind into thinking you were going for a kick but instead you punched me in my stomach. That was very clever and smart move.""Drew taught me." I say, like a proud
