EXCERPT: Students were running for their lives, vampires were hunting down their preys, friends betrayed friends by leaving them behind and saving their own lives first and soon, they all spread across the streets, causing chaos and killing anyone that they came across. There was carnage everywhere and from where Amber and the others stood, horror filled their eyes and Amber knew just what was happening. It was like the story that Hazel had told her back at the bookshop. The Chosen One didn't make a sacrifice. She wanted revenge and these were the army she was after. The last war was not really the last after all. Now, the fate of mortality lies in her hand. She was the Chosen One, but she does not remember any of that, even though she has a feeling that she knew these people. *** This is a story of Amber Willow, a seventeen year old girl living in a small City called Cinder. Though, her life doesn't always go according to the way it should, she believed she was just as normal as the rest of the kid out there but what she didn't realize was that, she was the One sent to bring an end to the existence of the wild creatures and because of that, other covens wanted her dead. The day she remembers who she really is, is the day the war would continue from where she last ended it and this time, she would not make the same mistake she made the last time. Her revenge would begin and it would start from the ones who took away the people dear to her. One by one, she would haunt them down and put an end to their immortality. ---Kyra Blackburn
View MoreKevin was with the two other female juniors, eating anything they came across in a mini mall. It has been four days since they crawled out of their hiding place and began their eating rampage due to hunger. As they were going about it, Meera suddenly appeared out of nowhere, making them scream and to stand on their toes.“Mirabel!” Kevin exclaimed immediately when he recognized her and Meera moved her eyes to look at the two juniors who cling unto each other like always. A scoff escaped her lips and she asked, “Is this what you have been doing? All you ever did was to eat? Did you even care if I was dead or alive?”“You were gone for seven days. That is a week,” Kevin said and added, “At least you are here now.” A look of relief passed through his face.“At least you bothered to count,” Meera replied him back and her eyes moved to fall on the two juniors again.“W-where have you been?” one of them asked and she recognized her instantly. “You were only going to check and then you disa
"Long time no see. But who should I answer first? Dear sister, or the great Kyra?” Simon said and started to walk towards them.Jade came forward and pulled Amber to the back quickly and then he looked at Simone. “Is this what you planned?” he asked and from behind, Amber could see the little rage in his eyes. “Did the Elders ask you to lure me here and is that the reason Aiden has not returned?”Aiden. So Aiden is not at Polis right now, Amber thought to herself and she calculated through the time when Harper mentioned she was going to see Aiden and Jade looked at her. He knew! She thought again.“I came here on my own and I have not the slightest idea why he is here. I haven’t even set my eyes on him since I resurrected not until now,” Simone sounded honest.“Then why hasn’t Aiden returned and why did you send the letter?”Simone turned to face him and asked, “Did you come because you trusted the letter, or the one who sent it?” Releasing a sigh, she said, “I need to help Sage and t
Amber waited in her room for Jade and she tapped her feet on the ground, feeling anxious. She has no idea what he wants to show her but she cannot wait to see what it was. Every time, she would turn her eyes towards the door whenever she hears any slight sound, thinking it was him. Not long after, the sound of instruments playing filled her ears; especially the piano and she shut her eyes to the merry voices of the people. They seem to have wanted a night like this since they resurrected, she thought, and just then, she heard a swooshing sound behind her and her hairs flew up due to the amount of sudden breeze that came with it.Alarmed, she turned her head swiftly only to see Jade who now walked up to her and she stood up immediately, looking surprised, and she moved her eyes to look at the open window from where he came in.Moving her eyes back to look at him, she pointed towards the door and said, “I thought you were go—”But Jade grabbed her hand before she could complete what she
Amber sat on the cold stone bed with her feet wrapped against each other as she thought back on what happened at the training ground. The door soon opened and when she moved her eyes towards the entrance, she saw that it was Harper.Harper smiled on seeing her and she had her hands behind her back as she walked towards where Amber sat before gentle sitting down beside her.Amber furrowed her brows a bit at her as she found it rather odd and she guessed that something must be up with her."What is it?" She asked her and Harper quickly turned her head to look at her with raised brows."What?" She asked back and then said, "Ah! It's nothing."Amber gave a slight nod and looked away from her only to hear her say, "Bathilda is so mean. How dare she treat you that way when you are obviously her Hedda? You should definitely remove her as the commander." Harper went on complaining and Amber just listened to her.Bathilda already told her about what she did but Amber knows it is Hazel's doing.
Amber released the arrow from the bow and it went forward only to fall on the ground few feet from where she stood. Her jaw dropped instantly and she looked down at the arrow and saw her failure. She was determined the arrow would hit the board but now she looks clearly disappointed.“Again,” she heard Bathilda say and she went to pick the arrow from the dusty ground before positioning herself again.She brought the arrow forward, hooking it with the line of the bow and she stretched her hand backward, drawing it along with her. she fixed her eyes on the board and when she thought she was ready to go, she released it but got disappointed again.“Again.”This went on until the seventeenth time with Amber not giving up and Harper and Samantha who noticed them, watched from where they stood.“Again,” Bathilda said for the eighteenth time and Amber dropped to her knees with tears in her eyes.“Amber!” Harper called immediately and left her tools before rushing to where she was.Amber lift
In Athens, Aamon arrived at Silver-Crest Coven with other Coven leaders and they were led into the inner chambers of the building. There, the Elders were already seated and they all held furious looks. It was due to the dispute that happened between them before they all resurrected.They all took their seats and after waiting a little longer for the last person who never arrived, they started without him.An Elder was the first to speak to begin the meeting and he started by clearing his throat to gain their attentions. “First, I would like to say that the Elders appreciate you all for being here. As we start, I would like us to put behind all that happened in the past and to discuss the events that will follow in this new life that we have been given. The reason we called you all here is to bring peace into this world and live without any war. Also, as you know, the world has changed and—”“Why isn’t the leader of Dark Shadows Coven here?” Gabriel, leader of Night Raiders Coven of Ar
“Wait, tell me again. Who is Simone?” Amber asked as she walked with Bathilda, heading to the training ground with Harper who seems to be interested in the discussion. Amber added much effort as she walked because she was carrying a bag filled with arrows and on her shoulder hung the bow she will be using for the training. She did not know how to shoot an arrow and she would have argued with Bathilda earlier about it, but she did not because she had gone to plead with her to train her and she will have to do whatever she says. “Simone is Sage’s half-sister,” Bathilda responded to her question as she walked with her hands folded behind her.Sage has a sister? Amber thought as she took in the new information. She wanted to know all about the person Aiden revealed was her lover in the past.“Simone’s real brother is Simon,” Bathilda continued. “He is a year apart from Simone but Sage is the oldest.”Amber smiled at the revelation. It felt good to know that his mother was his father’s f
Sage sat on the bare floor in chains and he stared out of the small window in the room where he was. From there, he could see the moon which remained a quarter to complete and he took in a sigh before releasing through his nose. It has been two days since he was locked up, awaiting the day he would finally be punished. He had escaped his punishment in the past where he flee with Kyra, abandoning his own Coven and joining hands with the Blackburn Coven, but now that things had gone back to how it was, he knows just what the intentions of his former Coven members will be, and their leader.His eyes darted to the entrance when he heard the sound of chains and the metal door to where he was opened. With the little light that entered the room, he could see a person dressed in black with a black veil covering the face and he just stared right up at the person. When the door was shut, at first, he thought it was another prisoner, or the person sent to kill him, but when the person quickly re
Meera was dragged out of the dungeon by two guards and taken into a room where candles were lit all around to give light. Her eyes had already swollen and her limbs already turned numb. She did not know why she was brought into this room. Were they perhaps going to kill her here? Does that mean her time on earth was already up? Was this what Kyle told her to get ready for?Amidst her thoughts of ending up dead, a smile appeared on her lips. It could be her last smile and she scoffed when the guards released her, making her body crash to the floor. As she was too weak to move, she stayed there and only raised her head up to see Zul who now came to stand in front of her. His presence alone answered all the questions that were in her mind. She was going to die, and he, Zul, was going to kill her.Zul released a heavy sigh as he placed both his hands on either sides of his waist and he clicked his tongue before he said to her, “You look more miserable than I expected. I thought you were m
