Paranoia only creeps up on me when I'm scared of the unknown and to be honest, I definitely didn't bargain for this bullshit!
"What password?" My heart sank instantly! Time kept flying fast when I didn't want it to move an inch and when I wanted time to get accelerated it would crawl its butt slowly like a snail. This is unbelievable!
"Are you now convinced Romulus is a scammer? He never told us about a frigging password." Cass' fingers trembled in anger. He looked like he could kill Romulus on sight."How about you keep quiet and let me think!" My voice thundered and Cass blinked back in surprise.I was beginning to feel infuriated about the incessant and endless whining. Throwing blames around is a stupid thing to do at the moment. We need to be smart and think of a way out of this challenge. My blood boiled while I thought of what to do.Cass stepped forward and peered into the guards' faces. "Let me pass." He compelled.The guards frowned in sync,#Meeting Lord Adam##Man's effort vs destiny##Hour glass ultimatum#Don't fucking call me crazy, we all should call him out for his hypocrisy!♥Elena's POV♥I hate getting pissed!It is absolutely unfair to have people need your help so badly and all you do is turn a blind eye and act all pompous and selfish. I mean, how did this old guy with no face get to be king when all he does is act like a grown-ass with twisted pants in the fraps and think of no one but himself.I have two main fears, really. Firstly, that all the journey to this realm might have been for nothing and my outburst must have ruined it all, but it is not like I care about hurting his emotions, he deserves it. My mom is the victim in this case and every other asshole should totally kiss my fat ass.Secondly, that we might get trapped in this hell hole of a realm and God forbid I'm forced to wear such shitty-looking robe like some catholic monk being forced to
For a brief second, we let the silence pass on with the chilly wind of awkwardness that blew past. The stormy cloud had returned to a normal evening chilly weather and the entire Castle became silent and peaceful. But here we were, silently anticipating and wondering if we had successfully convinced the dualistic god and if he would help us out. I glanced at my wristwatch and saw we had less than two minutes to secure the ancestral gift and return to the portal in time.Lord Adam cleared his throat. "You are a young brilliant mind which I appreciate but you have to learn to cultivate the art of patience.""Patience? I'm on a time ultimatum, I can't afford to be patient at this crucial time, Lord Adam.""As a god, emotions don't appeal to me. Logic and reasoning are key alongside the right dosage of patience. As a future heiress, you need to learn that." His voice went an octave higher like a lecturer about to school us."People die daily so what difference will a
"A drunk driver known as Jones was returning from a party at which he had consumed more than his usual dosage of alcohol, he also happened to be driving a faulty car whose break had turned out to be defective." Lord Adam's eyes opened wider as he looked at us."Go on, we are following your story about the drunk asshole that decided to embark on a suicide mission," I said and snorted."Must you always be so blunt?" Cass shook his head at me."He drives into an estate, knocks down, and kills Robinson.""Such a pity for poor Robinson, he was at the wrong place at the wrong time." Cass let out an exasperated sigh."The bastard who went on a killing spree should be blamed for endangering the lives of others because of his stupidity." I glared at Cass."And what exactly was Robinson doing outside by such late hour of the night, huh?" Cass fired at me."He was crossing the street at midnight to buy a pack of cigarettes," Lord Adam supported his face with
#Los Angeles##Festive period##Marshalls dynasty#Consequences be damned!!!♥Elena's POV♥It is a beautiful day outside, the streets are jam packed with tourists from all over the globe. They are gulping can beers, sinking their incisors into the thick succulent thighs of roasted chickens, chasing beads, and giggling around.They are all wandering around on the vampire walking tour of Los Angeles. The naive human faction assumes the festivity is just a myth hence their costumes, fake elongated fangs, and red paint dripping from their necks and hands. They look just how movies have painted vampires to be, a figment of their writer's imaginations. Well, it is all part of our city's charm but we the supernaturals are quite familiar with the truth.The hurricane flight we had from the other realm landed us directly in the middle of the universal studios Hollywood where the human population was more rampant. I think the smell of the busy
"Good lord, that one has some lungs in him, he must have been an opera singer." Cass walked into the narrow road with trails of blood staining his shirt and parts of his jaw."It might have ended better for him actually, but he chose his fate when he hit me first." I wiped my bloodied mouth and kicked his butchered balls from plain sight.The girls walked into the narrow road probably to plead with the bloody kleptomaniac to release their phones when I handed it over to them. "Us girls have got to stick together, consequences be damned so now run along.""Thanks! they both mumbled before walking away."What is your name? the brunette turned back to ask before leaving."Elena, call me Elena Marshall." I smiled at them before they left."In as much as I would love to applaud your heroic ability, I need to know if you are well satisfied and ready to go to the quarter now?" Cass stood tall and faced me."Yeah, but you don't have to let everyone on the
#Flash back##Cedric Marshall##Supernaturals#Hello Alaric, you look haggard as ever!♥Cedric's POV♥My life is a shattered mess, a puzzle that can't ever be gotten right because the missing piece led me astray and left me alone in this cold, dark, world. What benefit is the gift of immortality when ancient curses can drive you mad and invite death to snatch you right from my grip?I have failed as a man, a lover, a king, a father, a husband and I deserve to suffer this guilt all my life. Or perhaps, I should probably just end it all by searching for Lucindo to strike me with the same evil incurable spell. But, if I decide to leave this cruel world then what will happen to our daughter? Should she perhaps follow us both so we can cross over and live together happily wherever you are?The last time I felt such agonizing heartache was in the year 1412, early July.I walked into the bathroom and saw the love of my life, Diana lying
I swore to her after she gave me my bundle of joy, Elena that we will remain as closely knitted as a thief always and forever and rule the supernatural community side by side till our daughter was old enough to take over.Now I have failed not only Kate but Elena as well. I'm a disappointment.***♥Elena's POV♥The worst has happened and befallen the Marshalls. The last thing I need at the moment is a bunch of hypocritical sympathizers showing up at my chamber and making a fool out of themselves.Most people prayed and wished for this day. The day the murky mist would cast its silhouette on the dwellers of the quarter. People who want to take over power from us and can't wait to impound our dynasty.I sat in front of my dressing mirror watching my sorry state and trying to wrap my head around how it all happened. One moment I was combatting so hard to save Kate and the next instant she was gone right in front of me-- she fucking died in my
#The Bayou##Blackout##Kate Marshall#A meeting with Father Kinley♥Elena's POV♥It is said that when a werewolf dies, the body is placed on several wooden bamboo sticks right in the water body of the bayou. Friends and families will pay their respect as well as throw flowers at the corpse before lighting a match with an arrow, firing at the corpse, and being allowed to dive through the water while desiccating.Kate Marshall used to be an Alpha of the Eris pack and her burial won't be any different from the tradition of the wolves. Today is the day she must be buried and all her pack must howl in sync as a sign of acceptance that she was really gone.The Bayou is centered on the outskirt of Los Angeles and it is a piece of nature. It feels like mother earth decided to explore her creativity on this land exclusively meant for the wolves. There are huge old trees with strong bark that must have existed for thousands of years. Amo
It has been twenty-four hours since the incident happened. The FBI visited the murder scene and tapped the place as a district area. They found only Amanda's corpse with her fangs retracted and her claws removed. We left them with the brain-tasking job of finding out what kind of monster she is and why she was killed in that horrific way.Hilda's corpse was placed in a wooden coffin made with the finest and darkest shade of brown with a huge 'H' accessory adorning it. Her body was placed in there with the cover opened while we mourned her. She was a great warrior and a friend. She had the best intentions for all with a weird way of showing emotions. But from her history of what happened a century again, we understood her better."Come!" Suzy beckoned on me. For the first time in history, she wasn't wearing a skimpy outfit. She was draped in a long black gown to honor Hilda. An effort I commended. I was impressed with her character development."I stood up from the liv
#Los Angeles##Blood and fangs##Wands and claws#You are outmaneuvered, out mannered and frankly speaking, quite out of your freaking mind!!!♥Elena's POV♥"Hilda moved out." Cedric's baritone thundered as he walked into my room, wiping his blood-stained mouth with the hem of a shirt."Don't ask me how the hell it happened, I'm still feeling guilty enough about what happened yesterday." She held her hands up before mumbling, "It is mental torture, I feel like I'm going crazy." She said to herself."We could probably blame it on the excessive vodka she had yesterday night after opening up to you both." Cedric plopped on the edge of my bed."Or maybe it was the club. It was probably the strobing lights of the nightclub and repetitive doof doof of the bass that triggered some form of chemical reaction in her brain, causing her to make a rash decision all of a sudden." I furrowed my brows at the both of them, lost in thoughts.
Sunbeam crept into my room bit by bit before gradually illuminating my room as the soft golden diffuse rays settled on my face, waking me in the process and disrupting my much more craved slumber."Hilda, I have made hot coffee, fried yummy eggs, and pancakes, and picked up fresh apples for you from the garden." Mom's voice reverberated around the house."Thanks mother," I said begrudgingly and used my pillow to shield my face."Come downstairs right now and come and have breakfast before I come in using formula B for you." She called out again, this time around with a threat."Five more minutes mom, just five and I will be at the dining." The shrilling sound of a voice made me jump up from my bed in nightmare. It was my mother dressed in her pajamas, singing God knows what while my eardrums bled and cried in agony. Her skin glowed in the presence of sunlight and she looked pretty chic for a woman of forty-five years."Stop ma, you are hurting my ears,
#Alaska##Sexual slavery##Vampires#Daylight rings and sexual epidemic♥Elena's POV♥On a scale of one to ten, the past two days have brought in more trouble than a global pandemic has and so far, it kept on deteriorating further. The thought of even being related to a psychopath with a jagged scarred face who has done nothing but cause trouble to us makes me sick to the bone marrow. Questions like if he was truly Kate's brother why didn't we know about him all these years, why he never attended Kate's funeral and if there will be new siblings popping out of the blue raced through my head all night and made me sleep-deprived.How can I sleep when my father is slowly losing his mind and kidnapping hostages yet he still bears the crown. Questions like what other crazy things would he embark on made me consider options like chaining him in a dungeon and treating his mental health before he can be released because him roaming around like a ti
♥Suzy's POV♥Usually I'm not always one to get involved in things that don't concern my life, my family, and Elena, but seeing Amanda trying so hard to get Hilda to bury the hatchet made me want to contribute although I can't tell if it's because of her alluring beauty or her soft voice but the fact remains unchanged and that is she is willing to make amends so Hilda should give her the benefit of the doubt and move on with her."When I screamed harder, I meant the sex and not the entire relationship, Amanda, you fucked me up." Hilda paced around her room, throwing things around and breaking fragile objects like the painting of a mermaid in ceramic porcelain we got from china two hundred years ago and that hurt me to my bone marrow."And that is why I will always apologize, I'm sorry Hilda, at least invite me in so you can see that I have changed." Her tender baritone pleaded."I don't invite cunning foxes to my home, leave my window side and let me
#Factions conflict##California##factory duels#Let me remind you why they call me that dark lord, have you ever been skinned alive?♥Elena's POV♥The day was dwindling by and the sunset was finally escaping. It blossoms upon the cloud like a sweet wild clover bloom with a flourish of romance. The sky tinges a vibrant orange glow and a glossy gold upon the horizon as the evening casts her dusky gown."C'mon everyone, hurry into my brand new whip!" Hilda beckoned on everyone as we exited the quarter. "Nice whip!" Tiana said as she caressed the cream-colored car that must have cost thousands of dollars. "I know right!" Hilda grinned, revealing her white translucent pair of teeth."Wow! Hilda, did you buy a Lamborghini Urus? She is gorgeous." I took a step back slowly to admire the car. The details of the car screamed of pure grandeur. The tyre was well crafted with layers of shar
The quarter was as silent as a graveyard when we stormed in around 6:05 pm. Hilda was feeding on a flute of blood and her hands were balled into fists."I know you are stressed at the moment but two emotions aid a supernatural to feed of the strength of the beast from within." Suzy walked towards Hilda and raised her chin to face her."Fear of the unknown and anger." I butted in, clearing the junks on a table, and inserted the printed diagram on the table with a thud."So you can either choose to sulk all day or assist us in talking sense into Cedric to release the people he stole from each faction." Suzy raised her hair up and packed them in a messy bun."What the hell happened?" Hilda tilted her head and from the look she gave, we had piqued her interest."Your lunatic of a dark lord kidnapped a kid from each faction to murder as a punishment to yesterday's abrupt end of the dinner." Tiana stormed in with her gigantic head tie flying all over the place.
#The Quarter##Los_Angeles##The supernaturals#When I screamed harder, I meant the sex and not the entire relationship♥Elena's POV♥Once upon a time in a city named Los-Angeles, an explosion of heatwave erected in the air making every individual both supernatural and human squirmish and sweaty and that invited a long and lazy restlessness to the summer days. People paraded the city in wide-brimmed hats and kept trouping into the bar to order for iced drinks and liquors.The bar was stuffy and filled with people drinking, chatting and laughing excitedly. The bar was named Thunderbolt and it reminded me of a comic cartoon from nickelodeon that comprised of a supernatural family called Thunder Man. Suzy and Hilda were both dressed in jeans bum shorts while Suzy had her blouse buttons removed to expose her bosoms. We all sat in front of the barman and drank away the late afternoon that led to early evening. The air conditioner was on but it felt ineffective as a resu
That rug, that stupid old filthy rug, had seen more dancing shoes than a ballroom. It was where we twirled, everyone with everyone, the music escaping from every open window and door. Once the colour of cherries, now it told an earthy tale of love and laughter, of more good times than anyone is ever promised. I watched as compelled humans replaced it with a brand new black rug which will be starting its chapter with us tonight.The walls were scrubbed clean of dry crusty blood that has become a stain on the beige and cream coloured walls. The furnace burned brighter and food ranging from baked buffalo chicken wings, peel and eat shrimp with barbecue spices, teriyaki wings, crab cakes with horseradish cream, caramelized onion dips, and fresh fruit juice and soda sat gallantly on the dining table. Humans dressed smartly in a well-tailored white shirt with pants suspenders stood by the table angles with one bread knife on one hand and a glass cup on the other.Soft music diff
