Cirilla's point of view

I woke up earlier than usual the next day. Frankly, I couldn't sleep. The thoughts of the stranger at the alley kept me awake throughout the night. I can't stop thinking about him. And the unspeakable chemistry between us was undeniable. I groaned into my pillow.

Unable to decide yet if I should take him up on his date or not. I dug my head into the soft pillow, recollecting everything that happened last night. Weirdly, I loved the pull that existed between us. I wouldn't mind experiencing it again. What could probably go wrong? I guess I had just decided. I'm going on a date.

I raced to my closet in search of something nice to wear. I realized I was in a conflict between jeans and a cropped shirt. and a short dress. I didn't want to dress less or too much. Quickly I grabbed my phone, texting Lyra who's much capable of managing this crisis.

'I've got a date. Don't know what to wear' I entered the send button, perching on the edge of the bed. In short second

    Cirilla's point of view I woke up in the morning and headed out to school. I was almost there when my phone beeped loudly. A message. From Niko. He still wasn't back in town from his trip to his family house in Nevada. I released a small smile, reading through his message. 'Won't be back till tomorrow. Take care Ciri. Please be safe!' A warm feeling enveloped my heart. It was nice to know that someone cared for me. I kept walking to school and a few more minutes later I was there. I headed straight to class. My eyes silently scanned the hallways for Lyra and the guys. I honestly couldn't believe how well we all clicked. It's a sheer wonder to me. I never had so many friends before. Back then I just didn't care. Mum and I were always on the move anyway. No point in establishing any sort of relationship. But now things had changed. I had friends, to begin with, and there was Mason. I jerked alarmed when someone grabbed my shoulder out of the blue. I swerved instinctively, my b

    Cirilla's point of view "Pretty pretty please" I dared not looking at her. Especially when she had her adorable puppy dog eyes on display. I didn't need anything that will alter my decision. "I'm sorry Lyra. I have a heap of things to do tonight" I lied smoothly. Hoping she doesn't prod any deeper. I literally had nothing to do after my shift at the gym. I chose today as my weekly day off from the bar. But there was no way I will be attending the party to celebrate her brother's return back home. "But you don't have to work at the bar tonight" Her pleading voice reminded. I mentally groaned in frustration, wishing I never chose today as my day off. It would have been much easier if I actually had to work today. I finally turned to her. Her brown wavy hair dangling at both sides of her face. Her bulging chocolate eyes holding mine expectantly. "I'm sorry Lyra" I hate to break her heart. But it's a massive NO from me. "You don't have to stay for too long.

    Cirilla's point of view 'Get away from me!!!' I was startled by his words. I felt a knot tighten my chest in pain.It was unbelievable how those words clung to my thoughts and wouldn't let go. His voice was pleading and it held so much pain. But he refused to gaze at me. He had jerked away from my touch like I was some kind of lethal poison that could possibly harm him, even worse kill him. Even when Stefan and Wren had rushed to his side and helped him out of the dancefloor, he still wouldn't look at me. It was frustrating and I hated myself more for still thinking about him. I can't seem to pry him out of my thoughts. Sighing, I focussed my attention on the punching bag in front of me in the training area. I resumed my punches on the bag, unable to quell my rage, frustration and confusion. No matter how hard I thought about it, no matter how much i tried to understand him, I still didn't get him at all. And it was infuriating. The fact that everything ab

    Asher's point of view After an eventful evening at Miles's bar, we were in the car waiting for Lyra, she had left for the restroom and was taking her sweet time. But I didn't mind. Any minute from now, Cirilla would be done with her shift and hopefully, I would get the chance to watch her leave. I was disconnected abruptly from my thoughts by the frenzied state of Lyra as she raced to us from a distance. I jumped out of the driver's seat. 'Lyra what's wrong?' I asked her in a rush through the mind-link. At a glance, she was before us, and Stefan was by her side calming down the wild pounding of her heart. Her worrisome chocolate eyes held horror and an oppressing rage. "Julia has totally gone nuts!" She yelled in a rant. "What did she do now Ly----" Dorian's attempted words were silenced by Lyra's yell. "She's attacking Cirilla. She might kill her!" "What??!" The loud chorus from the guys was nothing but muffled sounds compared to the shattering echoes that pierced the walls of

    Asher's Point Of View I noticed the flicker of surprise that stood within those round, beautiful irises of hers. But her face and demeanor didn't show any other emotion. Nothing at all, well except for the furious pounding of her heart. She did a good job looking as normal as possible. I gave my eyes the liberty to explore her features. Her beautiful flawless face, skin as smooth as silk, perfect round curves, and her legs were perfect and beautiful in those training shorts. Beads of sweat having the privilege to feast on her skin, I wished it were my hands working wonders on her skin. I had to mentally fight off the emotions Ryker was fueling in me. I needed to be sane, to figure out exactly how much she knew about me and what to do about that. She nodded to whatever Vince was saying, and when his lecture was getting unbearable, I mindlinked him to scram. I wanted her to myself. Only to me. My wishful thinking was granted. Immediately Vince left us I pulled my tee, jumping into t

    Cirilla's Point Of View "Remember what the doctor said and if you need anything at all, don't hesitate to call me" His face grew awfully close to mine. Slowly I gripped the thin fabric of my sheets to keep me from gasping at the closeness. The last few hours that Asher has been next to me were the most dangerous hours in my entire life. I fought the insane urge to lean into him, run my hands through his skin, and place my lips on his soft tempting ones. The urge was slowly overcoming me. But I dared not look away, or give any sign or inkling that he somehow affected me. I couldn't. I nodded to his words, knowing full well I wouldn't dare call him, even if insanity had plagued me and I wanted to call him, I didn't have his number. His lips smiled, teasingly, and I watched him leave my room with one last glance at me. A few seconds later, the front door jammed closed. I was sure he had gone already, I released the breath I had no idea I was holding. I forced myself out of bed, groa

    Cirilla's point of view "Hey, how are you feeling?" My phone vibrated. It was a text. I checked the number and it wasn't from my contact. I began to type, before I could finish another text popped up. "It's Asher" I paused momentarily, staring at the name. A text popped up again. "Are you asleep?" How did he get my contact? "No. I'm still awake" I sent back, tapping the tip of my fingers on my lips. "How's your ankle? Does it hurt badly?" His text popped up, making an unwanted smile stalk my lips at his concern. Yes it does. But I couldn't say that. "Not that bad" "Do you need anything?" He asked. "Not really. I'm unable to get through to Lyra. Could you get her to call me?" I waited for his response but there was nothing, even after five minutes. I sighed, I was dying from thirst and was in dire need of a shower and I had to pee. I stared at the black swollen ankle and then to the bathroom door at the corner of my room. I pulled the

    Cirilla's point of view The door to my room jerked open the second Asher jumped off. Mum's sandy brown eyes fell on me instantly. "Mum, you're back" I smiled a little, knowing she probably wouldn't return it but a little part of myself hoped she would. Somehow I thought two days apart would work magic on our relationship but it was obvious it didn't. "Didn't you hear me call?" She barked, scrutinizing me, and I did her as well. Nothing changed. She was the same. Same appearance, and the same attitude. "I was asleep" Her nose flared up in the air as she looked around my room as if sensing someone was there. Well, If she suspected anything, she didn't say a thing and just stormed off. leaving me to my thoughts and the tingles I was still feeling from the spot Asher's lips touched my cheek. I crashed on the bed, pulling the sheets to my face, and squealing into them. I woke up early the next day and prepared for school. There was no point missing it if I'd only stay home alone, wit

    Asher's Point Of View My heart was pounding in my chest and I took deep breaths to calm it down.“Nervous?” Theo chuckled, placing a hand on my shoulder as we stared down the beautifully decorated aisle where Cirilla would be coming through any minute from now.“Nope,” I lied, my heart in complete chaos as I tried to steady my breathing. “Sure he is,” Wren voiced coldly, “He's a second from losing his shit,”I fought the urge to glare at him. “Get out of my head, demon,” My eyes remained fixed on the blank evening air. “Relax man! Just take a deep breath otherwise at the rate you'll end up having a heart attack the second you see her,” Stefan whispered from my left, and I couldn't tell if that was a warning or a piece of advice.“Enough, all of you. You're being too loud,” I refrained from shouting, keeping my voice low instead, and wondering why I chose all three of them to be my groomsmen. I should have gone with Daryl, Andy, and Cory instead.‘They are right though. Tune it down

    Cameron's Point Of View Hastily, I flipped through the papers, going through them, and as soon as I was satisfied, I scribbled my signature at the bottom of the document, sealing a multibillion deal.I gently placed my fountain pen on the table, glancing up to see Trevor's face beaming with so much elation. “Happy now?” I smirked, getting off from my seat, and pinning together the suit jacket of my tux. “Hurry up and don't be late,” I told the smiling vampire, before strutting out of my office at Castle Corps. Today I had no choice but to step into town and close a deal we've been working on for several months now.I chuckled, as a smile stalked my lips. I couldn't just stop smiling. Today was a good day. The very best. I reached the elevator doors and pressed a button. As soon as it opened, I stepped through the door, at the same time, snapping my fingers, and instantly teleported myself to one of my penthouse suites in Louisiana.I glanced around the large suite and instantly my e

    Asher's Point Of View“Just a little sec,” Louis yelled over the loud music playing in the bar as he kept shaking the bottle of wine. In one swift move, he flicked the top open and there was a loud popping sound followed by the dramatic mess of the alcohol pouring around.“Woah,” I heard Eric scream from a corner with a random female on his lap, while he kept chugging down one of the concoctions Louis had mixed the second the party started, and without mincing words, they were all clearly drunk.I groaned in frustration, bringing my fingers to block both of my ears as Amy, Shirley, Enzo, and Dorian were murdering Ava by Famy at a far corner which I clearly remembered wasn't even sung that way.I pulled my beer to my lips, taking a sip. I looked around from the dancing crowd and saw Julia and Wren sitting, also looking completely bored while Kayla and Carl were making out in the backseat booth of the bar, and Malia, Daryl, and Theo were unaccounted for.And here I was seated at one of

    Cameron's Point Of ViewI knew it.There was nothing left inside of me. I was nothing more than an empty shell. I felt absolutely nothing but a pain in my heart. A darkness that loomed over every inch of my mind. Just patiently waiting until it finally took over every piece of me.It wouldn't be that bad to shut it all out. To rid myself of this pain that had filled the cavity in my soul, but one glance at Theo and my mate, reminded me I wasn't the only one suffering through it. They needed me. And I needed them.But I couldn't deny it. I also felt a little fear in the smallest crevice of my heart. We would never be okay. There was no way we would ever survive this loss.It was worse than knowing she was somewhere out there but we couldn't find her.Eighteen long years of never giving up. Of searching relentlessly for our little princess, and in the end she ended up in a coffin.It was the most distraught sight for a parent. It was never supposed to be like this. A parent should never

    Cirilla's Point Of View For a second I felt a surge of excruciating pain starting from my chest right where the pointed edge of the phoenix blade pierced me, spreading through my bones, and it was as though my whole soul was being sucked into a funnel.But just when I thought the pain was about to get worse, darkness covered my vision, dominating the light around me. And I felt absolutely nothing.That was when I knew it without a doubt. I was dead.At the speed of light, everything that happened within the last minutes of my life flashed before my eyes and the last image of Asher's teary and broken gaze filled with so much pain and sadness tore me completely apart and without realizing, tears pooled out of my eyes. The hurt in his eyes was heartbreaking.I sobbed silently, and abruptly, the darkness that surrounded me began to fade into a blinding light that I had to shut my eyes.By the time I pulled my eyes open, I found myself in the middle of the worst scene of my life, or rathe

    Asher’s Point Of View No!A growl resonated within my chest as Mason's words filled my mind. I just knew he was lying. He had to be. There was no way Cirilla's death had to be the end of him.That couldn't be possible. The moon goddess couldn't be so cruel.I did everything to break out from whatever effect Mason's magic had on me, keeping me frozen. But I couldn't. I could barely feel Ryker anymore and even Azalea's strength had weakened greatly from the fucking veil in the sky, blocking out our powers.I could neither connect with Cirilla through our mate bond. Instead, I was forced to watch the broken state she was in and witness her pain I couldn't stop the tears that filled my eyes as her blue eyes moved around and finally fell on mine.“Don't do this,” I begged. Mason was a lying bastard. There must be another way.But the look in her eyes was final. She had made up her mind.No Cirilla!The words echoed in my head but I couldn't get them out. Suddenly her eyes glowed brightly

She was already in her wolf form and Kayla next to me panicked as these beasts were already bridging the distance between us.Shirley had lunged instantly at one when I heard her panicking cry from over my shoulder.I turned to her just in time to stop one of those things from clawing at her.“My magic!” She screamed, “Something's wrong! I can't use my magic. It's weakening,” “What?”“The boundary spells must be down. It's a veil, it's blocking out our magic, and every source of our powers, but I don't understand why it isn't affecting you,” Kayla rushed in fear.“Back to the mansion!” I yelled, releasing volts of magic at them but they seemed completely unaffected.Shirley and Kayla started for the route leading

    Davina's Point Of ViewWe had almost all the ingredients we needed for the spell, including Sheila's blood. I don't know how Asula got it, but Sheila had no idea of what we were about to do. Asula had sent Rowena to retrieve the last piece of ingredients, and she was escorted by Kane and a few of his warriors.We had left the cottage and now followed the familiar trail to the ancient magic cave. Once we entered, she turned to the stone table in the middle, unloading the required ingredients from her basket on the table.“We must begin at once and be done quickly,” She said, scrolling through the Grimoire.“And the last piece of ingredients Rowena has gone to fetch?”“Oh don't worry about her. We have all we need here. I just sent her on a little adventure with Kane. I don't want her here for the spell,”Her words surprised me but I also didn't want her here for the spell, especially with the phoenix stone out in the open.“You have to be careful of the witch.

    Davina's Point Of ViewWe spent the rest of the night going around the forest. At first, each trail either led us to a dead end or took us through another circle. And Rowena's constant mumbling was a crown on the insane frustration I felt. It took me every bit of self-control not to plunge the dagger in my boots into her chest and I kept reminding myself that I needed her just as much as she needed me to get out of there. Alive.So in the meantime, we were all we had.After hours of going around in circles in the forest, we finally found our way out, bursting out in the middle of a long narrow path, and up ahead seemed like a village.We moved hastily in the darkness, and using the single torch on a stick we managed to light up to see in the darkness. We trekked up the hills and burst into the village. I stopped in my tracks, and as expected there was no single soul in sight. But something else felt wrong. The place felt deserted.“Something doesn't feel right,” Suddenly, I felt a lit
