“About the door,” she paused before she continued, “...didn’t you read the notice I posted on the window?”

Amber moved from her thoughts and stared at the back of the woman with a small frown on her face. “What notice?” she asked.

The woman’s finger stopped trailing across the books and she pulled out a book. Turning around to walk to a table, she replied, “Mind the door.”

When she noticed that Amber didn’t get what she said, she explained, “Just like the way it is posted on a glass door. Mind the glass-Mind the door.”

“Oh!” Amber said when she finally got what the woman was trying to say. “I must have missed seeing that.”

The woman raised her head to look at Amber properly. “What did you see then?” she asked and Amber arched her brows as she tried to recollect what she saw at the glass and she parted her lips to speak. “Let the books take you into the world of the unknown.”

The woman stared at Amber and said, “If you can read that then you must be here for something. But from the loo

    Hazel further explained to Amber, “There are some witches who, out of greed, decided to tap into the black magic and so, their heart has become corrupted. Most witches like that have done more evil deeds than good because it’s like trading your life for death or giving the devil a handshake. So, it’s more of like making a sacrifice to keep them in the world. The black stones can help to hide their appearance while they live among humans. So you see, you can be living among witches but you don’t know who is who,” Hazel said and added, “Black stones carry heavy energy and the energy can be manipulated by the witch according to her will. It can be used for good and for evil.”Amber felt her palms turn sweaty. She asked, “Is there any other reason they have to tap into the black magic? I mean, since they know the harm in it, do they still do it out of greed?”Hazel hummed a response and replied, “Whatever reason they might have, once they tap into the black magic, there is no going back s

    When Amber neared her neighborhood, she sighed in relief that she would soon be home. She didn’t know how many minutes had passed since she started walking but she was glad that she made it to her neighborhood in time and she hastened her steps but then, she stopped and turned to look behind her because she thought she heard footsteps behind her.Seeing no one in sight, fear crept into her mind at the thought that the Vampires were out and looking for whom to prey on. She listened again and when she heard nothing, she dared to breathe a sigh of relief but as soon as she turned back to resume walking, she saw two men standing in front of her, grinning with lust in their eyes and what she perceived around them is the smell of alcohol.At first, she thought they were Vampires, but then, Vampires don’t drink alcohol, or do they? Amber thought and was in between confused and scared. Anyone can drink alcohol. Yes! Fangs! She looked down at their teeth but she could not see it. When they sta

    Running was not an option for Amber because she knows that if she tried it, the men would get her in no time. Saving herself was not an option either, because she is no match for them and she doubted if they would listen to her pleas this time.“I—I’m sorry. It wasn’t intentional. I did not know what I was doing,” Amber apologized as she moved to the back with every step they took towards her.“You should have agreed while we were still patiently asking. We won’t go easy on you this time,” the bald man scowled at her with a look of anger in his eyes.In no time, the other two men grabbed both her arms and no matter how hard she tried to release herself from them, it only ended up in her arms being gripped tightly and she yelled in pain.“What are you doing? Let me go!” she yelled at them when they started dragging her.Amber dread what would happen to her as she is not sure of what the men want from her. Their words were clear but she perceived their intentions to be different. Or wai

    Hazel thought about her dead lover who sacrificed his life in order to save hers and she will never get over the fact that he was killed by Vampires but she didn’t because of that, tap into the black magic to bring him back to life. Though, she wished that one day, she would get to see and talk to him at least, even if it was just for a short time.There was silence between the both of them as they stared into each other eyes. Hazel then held her head high and said to him, “Your words don’t move me.”“I don’t expect it to either because you have always been this way.” Hazel felt his words prick her on the skin but she waved it off.“Didn’t you say one of your own was in danger?” Hazel raised a brow at him, deciding to change the topic.“Amber Willow, she was here,” Mr. Evans said.“I never said she wasn’t,” Hazel rolled her eyes. “Then why are you still standing there? Aren’t you going to save her?”“Actually, I came here for something different,” Mr. Evans said and brought out a book

    “Cowards die many times before their deaths;The Valiant never taste of death but once,Of all the wonders that I have yet have heard,It seems to me most strange that men should fear;Seeing that death, a necessary end,Will come when it will come.”--Shakespeare, Julius Caesar_In her deep sleep, Amber saw herself in an unknown place in the middle of the night where darkness filled the sky. She felt exhausted as if she had been running for a long time and her right hand seems to be heavy as if she were carrying something heavy in it. She looked down on her hand and just immediately, the sky rumbled and lightning struck, making a deafening sound. She saw a bloody sword in her hand and she immediately threw it to the ground. When the lightning struck again, she saw that she was surrounded by bodies that lay on the cold floor and suddenly, she heard a sharp cry behind her. Turning around swiftly, she heard a thud on the ground and she bent down slowly. She saw a figure of someone and h

    There was confusion in the eyes of the lackeys as they look at each other and then at the boy. The man in black stepped forward. He hung the gun on his shoulder and tilted his head sideways and then, there was a loud laugh in the small room which erupted from him. When the laugh died down, Amber saw the bright face of the man turn into a dark one. “Shakespeare? Really?” the man asked and scoffed. Amber also thought about it. Why would he bring up Shakespeare now when they were in the middle of danger?She leaned closer to his neck and whispered to him with trembling lips, “What are you doing? If you wish to die then don’t drag me along with you. I have a mother who cares and worries about me and I don’t even know how her condition is right now. I lost my father and I am the only one she has. So whatever you are doing, don’t let it endanger me. I just want to return home and forget about this nightmare.”Already feeling impatient, the man roared, “Quiet!” and Amber shook with fear. T

    Amber ran in the dark to wherever her legs took her without stopping. She didn’t know the exact place she was going and she bruised herself when her body grazed on the bark of the trees but that didn’t stop her from running. Her foot suddenly hit the root of a tree and she stumbled on the forest ground before rolling down the sloppy land. Amber groaned in pain and raised her head before trying to stand up with the support of her hands but she suddenly let out a sharp cry when she felt pains in her body. She rolled on her side such that her head was now facing up and she breathed heavily. Just then, sobs escaped from her mouth and hot tears rolled down the corners of her eyes.She thought about everything. How did her life suddenly become this way? Why does it have to be her? She was with her best friend where they were walking into shops and they looked happy, then she was in the company of a witch, then she found herself being kidnapped by some men, then the boy, the gunshot, the fi

    “We know what we are, but not what we may be.”--Shakespeare _Amber saw the man walk up to her through her teary eyes and she saw him bend to her level before bringing his hand to her face. He circled his hand around her face and Amber felt disgusted at it. She tried to push her head away but it only ended up in the bald man pulling her hairs and she felt her scalp would peel any seconds. When his thumb finger touched her lips, Amber parted her mouth and bit his finger, pinning her teeth hard on it till she tasted blood and the man yelled before using his other hand to part her jaw and Amber released her teeth from his finger as she felt her jaw ache.“Argh!” the man yelled in pain and stood up, holding his finger. He glared down at Amber angrily and before she knew it, she felt a burning pain on her cheek as the man had slapped her. Her head fell to the ground and she felt a burning headache in her head. “You stupid bitch!” the man cursed and stomped his foot on the ground. “I know

    Kevin 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.
