2024-10-29 19:42:56After the long meeting about the death of one of their business partners as well as the fact that the wolves are making their move, Denzell felt tired. He suddenly wants to visit the Pisces and Gem cafe that he went to last time, it is not like he favored the service or wanted to have a coffee. It was just his feet that brought him to the front of the store. Since it was a bit late when he got off in front of the office, he expected that the store was about to close.
“What coffee would you like Sir?” He was greeted by the last staff remaining in the cafe.
“None, you may continue closing. I was just actually looking around.” he smiled at the young man who was brightly looking at him.
“No I can’t my lord! I mean--- ugh sir?” he paused for the slip of the tongue. “I

“Miss Barrett, wake up.” He gently touched the loose hair on her face and that made her frown a bit later she slowly opened her eyes and saw a handsome face and a fair of those pretty grey eyes. “I!” she exclaimed, how could she have fallen asleep with the person who helped her? She was so flustered for being neglected. “I think you were exhausted from the events tonight so I let you rest.” How can he be so considerate of her was on Barrett’s mind. “I’m sorry, did I sleep long?” She looked out the window and saw that they had already arrived in front of her apartment, with this she felt more apologetic about sleeping. “It’s fine, we just arrived a minute ago.”
Barrett: Heart of Promise 25 The wolf 's date and the crime
As if her body was like a log, she kept her eyes covered with her hand when the sunlight blinded her. Still blankly lying on her bed she turns to look for her phone and sees that the time is already past eight in the morning. She got a class at nine, if she got up now she might be able to make it to half the lecture. Every move she makes is slow and it's like her own body is unwilling to cooperate, but she has to attend the class and Barrett never misses any of it. Sleep still lingering on her head, she lazily grabs her bag and phone as she opens the door of her room a tall build of a man greets her. “I thought you were dead, not moving at all.” He greeted her, it still had to absorb and sink it in her head when Maynard reached out his hand and cupped her face. It was too close
Barrett: Heart of Promise 26 Her Guardian
“Ah! Ahh!” her trembling screams echoes in the hallway of the whole floor. Barrett before her is a scene that makes her stomach turn upside down and she vomits. The horrible scene makes her sick, Maynard who looks back at her quickly grabs her as she loses her consciousness. Blood. Maynard frowns as the stinky smell of blood lingers on his nose. A minute later the owner of the apartment who came running upstairs called the police to inspect the room. “It is animal blood not human.” said the police who are in charge of the case. “How did you know? There’s a lot of mess inside.” It was the old woman who is the owner of the apartment. “Apparently, we saw some animal fur around, and a feather so we guess it was a mixture
Barrett: Heart of Promise 27 Polaroids
The investigation was later on passed with the mafia organization and the lead is just like what they were thinking. The perpetrators are not only humans, the events are misleading them. The one who follows Barrett the night after her shift, the shadow lounging around the apartment and the dirty mess in her apartment are all different. "It doesn't make sense." Irvin uttered to the twins, "How can a simple human like her who has lived like a ghost suddenly get targeted like this?" "This is really suspicious, from the first time I saw her there's something different." Irvin continued. "What are you implying then?" Maynard raised his brow to ask the bold suspicion of his cousin. "Remember the meeting w
Barrett: Heart of Promise 28 More about you
The night after that incident, Barrett never came back to the apartment, she only collected a few clothes and other important documents and just stayed over the unit that Faera had arranged for her. She also submitted a resignation letter to her part time job.“It is lonely that another employee has to leave again.” the duty manager spoke as she handed the clearance form, it was her last duty.“I’m sorry for that Sir, it’s just something that happens sometimes.” She felt sorry, even though she is a part timer, the working environment in the diner was good.“Well, just like you said, things happen. It’s just a pain in the neck to hire again.” he complains.“If I were to hire, I need to find so
Barrett: Heart of Promise 29 The woman of the rumors
It was another lazy afternoon, just right after her morning class she went back home. Since she resigned from her part time job, she is as free as air. She checked on her internship application at the IIC website. “It's still for review.” She pondered how long it took to know if she passed or not, so she then tried looking for other job sites. She still has enough savings and her last paycheck from her last job. “If I have to take a new job, I better buy clothes for the interview.” Since her last job was at a diner, she didn't have to wear formal clothes, only a collared shirt and jeans was what she wore during the interview process. “Let’s have a look at the boutiques.” Deciding to go out, she wore a pair of her worn out sneakers, her face grimacing at the thought tha
Barrett: Heart of Promise 30 A sweet cup for you
The cafe seems to be on a holiday, it was already past noon and they haven’t even opened up the door, the chairs were still left on top of the tables and there were only the three of them. Denzell noticed every single move that she made, the way she glances around and when she stops as if she’s thinking deeply. To answer her curiosity he spoke, “The cafe is not opening today, we are here to make new products for the menu.” He explained smoothly to her, without making her think that he sees right through her reaction. “A new product!?” Her adorable reaction puts a smile on his face, with Louis looking at the Dragon King loosened in front of the lady seems to be so proud and expectant that these two are compatible. Denzell isn’t supposed to be at the store and he is not responsible to do the task of making a new product, howe
Barrett: Heart of Promise 31 The First Temptation
Her scent sends an exhilarating stimulus to his emotions, he never thought the long gone feeling will be pulled on by this frail woman. She is innocent, she has nothing to do with it. It was you, who gave in and got yourself drawn. It is not enough for him, slowly the tip of his nose trails down from her ear down to her nape. The sweet scent and the mixed sweat from her heated body awakens the long dead emotion in him. He wants more. “A-uhmm..” she slowly gasps as the ticklish sensation at her nape makes her knees weak. She is barely hanging on and her left hand holds on to the arms wrap around her waist for support.

Barrett: Heart of Promise Epilogue
The Nohrmann Association has been dissolved, the people behind the series of deaths and disappearances, be it human, werewolf or vampire were captured. The whole city that was once destroyed by the creature's war started the renovations and infrastructures. The humans who got caught in the war are first hesitant to accept the existence of the creatures whom they only know in books and movies. With the help of those who have been supporting them behind and the other people who were saved by the werewolves and dragons, a treaty of peace and coexistence has been passed. At first it was not accepted, especially by those who have lost their loved ones and have traumas of that nightmare. The Yngvirds foundation, the ones that they have been building off to enter the industry, has taken the lead by employing both races and creating a fa
Barrett: Heart of Promise 101 Entrusting the heart to you
Barrett has known from them that the rogues and human vampire experiments were all over the town causing havoc and that for the first the werewolves defend and fight alongside with the dragons, assisting with their magic and evacuating the civilians. At this moment the three lords of each kind were about to fight head on, with Barrett’s statement of the current situation it seems that the Silversnow castle is filled mostly with controlled servants. That the possibility of casualties will be lesser as they can only capture them and make them lose consciousness. Unlike what is happening in town which was a tremendous fight of flesh, strength and mind, this one is a battle that will result in the safety of the rest who are living in this war. The forces have been dispatched and the rest have already infiltrated the castle, as Barrett claims, there were only serv

For the past weeks the human realm is in turmoil as the vampires under Cliverio’s hypnotism and the experimental creatures under the Norhmann association were causing havoc. The local government as well as the military of each country who were aware of the existence of the creatures has decided to join forces in order to protect the civilians and the rest of the community.

The forest is still and quiet, only the gushing wind can be heard, even their breaths were held, a few since then, the entire dragon clan and werewolves have joined forces in order to find Barrett’s whereabouts. “She is still nowhere to be found, the leads are bringing us to a blind spot and we have to start from scratch again.” Myrvinne, who has dark circles under his eyes, has been working for the past weeks tracing wherever the Norhmann association has brought Barrett into captivity. The Yngvirds, Lymuels and the other clan have come together to search for a human. “I am amazed at how a human can move even us werewolves…” One of the family leaders spoke. “Isn’t she the mate of the dragon king? She must have possessed great beauty.” The elders and the other family leaders have never caught sight of Barrett in p
Barrett: Heart of Promise 97 To claim back the Kingdom
“I just can’t believe it.” she shook her head in disbelief, “So you're telling me right now that you have travelled from the ‘future' which means it is several centuries ahead of this current time?”Still trying to grasp the modern terminology of Barrett, both Argel and Carell were able to get what she meant.“Yes, you got it right.”“And you assume that you are my descendant?”“It’s just a hypothesis, when Carell is in a life and death situation, my chest suddenly hurts and as you all witnessed, my body is disappearing.” With her last proof, Argel gulped and was worried about Barrett.“If Carell were to die earlier, that means that Bare
