"What are you? Your scent is peculiar," he said leaning in, my heart quickened as I panicked taking a step back away from him. "Are you a witch?" he asked again, this time I couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at him. What is he talking about…….

Her life took a fascinating and mysterious turn after running into a strange man whose entire aura screams danger. She could sense he wasn't human at first glance.

...."Don't you think it speaks of your professionalism if you can't even remember the name of your guest?" Alaric asked, taken aback I scanned through my head, the devil never told me his name."You are not wrong, but wouldn't it be more disrespectful to ask a guest of such caliber what his name is if he hadn't thought of the necessity of introducing himself first," I replied, his expression made me rethink my words, was I being such a smarty mouth."Oh heavens," A chuckle followed, he seemed genuinely amused, making me wonder what was funny about what I had just said."Your logic would have made so much sense, but in the earthly world of the elites you are supposed to know the rich even before they introduce themselves, that is how you survive," he spoke as if lecturing me."Even before meeting you, I knew I would like you, I am very glad at my judgment yet again," he continued speaking, his words only made me more curious as to what exactly their conversation about me was like."Of

...As the twilight shadows danced across the room, I stirred from a deep slumber, my senses reluctantly surrendering to the rhythmic pulsing of the evening alarm. Its persistent melody sliced through the hushed stillness, a stark reminder that my world awakened as others embraced the caress of night.Beneath the dim glow of the bedside lamp, I untangled myself from the embrace of sleep, my body a canvas painted with the weariness of the day that never was. The city outside whispered with the secrets of nocturnal tales, and I, a mere spectator, prepared to step into the velvet embrace of the night.The sheets clung to me like the remnants of dreams, and as I silenced the alarm, the room echoed with the quiet promise of moonlit adventures and As the twilight shadows danced across the room, I stirred from a deep slumber, my senses reluctantly surrendering to the rhythmic pulsing of the evening alarm. Its persistent melody sliced through the hushed stillness, a stark reminder that my wor

....Even though I purposely took my time, at 10 am, the traffic was still jammed. Usually, my shift ends as early as 8 am but somehow it's 10 am, and I am on my way home in my withered car hoping it doesn't break down before I get home...Upon getting to my apartment, I needed no seer to tell me that Selena has joined Zeoy, the sound of music coming from my apartment as I input my password. The smell of fresh food filled my nostrils as I walked straight to lay on my floor."What is wrong?' The worried voice of Selena approached me lying on the floor with worry on her face. I immediately pretended to cry as I raised my hand towards her. She smiled and kicked me as she went back with a kitchen spoon in her hand."What happened to you? Exhausted?" Zoey asked, sitting beside me as she lowered the soft music, completely turning on the television instead."How was work?" she asked as I noticed she was eating peanuts, I dragged myself up to sit beside her as I hissed. How do I bring up work

I watched as his demeanor changed upon getting to the restaurant. I followed him closely, my whole attention on him. Straight to the VIP section, he knew exactly where to go. Thankfully Gabriel was already around, perhaps waiting for him. "Welcome sir, good evening," he greeted with a smile. It was the first time I saw his smile. I must confess, I mean who wouldn't want to be on their best behavior when the CEO's brother is around well all except me so far."So what is it?" Gabriel asked, facing me as I panicked, still not sure of what he wanted to eat."Still not doing your job?" he said in between his teeth with a passive-aggressive tone and smile."What do you mean, her job?" He finally broke his cold silence, looking up at me and Gabriel, his tone was as cold as his face as he folded his hands against his chest closing his legs."Aah... No, I am just trying to know what you want," Gabriel said with a nervous smile as he nodded."The last time I was here, the chief came directly

.... (Aurora's POV) My heart completely sank. Leaping and almost bursting through my chest, for I have crossed part with the devil himself. And no, he is nothing like the tales told, he is not an ugly red man with horns but rather a beautiful man with luscious hair who can easily bewitch one with just a single stare. His golden brown eyes, which I clearly remembered changing color, shone brighter when he smiled even though I could tell those smiles were fake, all a sham to manipulate another victim.... Not minding that I stood before him, with a wine bottle in my hand waiting to be dismissed. He whispered sweet words to the lady who seemed to have lost her sense of control completely lost in his gaze not even sparing a glance at me. She continuously ran her hands all over his chest giggling as her voice filled the room. "Ahem! Ahem!!" I cleared my throat nervously, still hoping to be dismissed. All my head could think about is the fact that he was real. It wasn't a dream and I de

(Aurora)*Two days letter(Monday evening)* The event of the past week has been the strangest, the eeriest dream ever and a painful heartbreak but I still have to make a living."Why are you getting ready, I thought your shift was later in the night?" Zeoy asked with her mouth full of food while pressing her phone."I owe my colleague a cover," my voice came out weak while she raised an eyebrow at me."still having weird dreams about a strange man?" She asked with an amused expression while I rolled my eyes. I still strongly believe it's not a dream. That day at the club I am sure of what I saw but apparently I was found passed out on the cold tiles of the restroom and my two friends believe I either was dreaming or hallucinating. I also want to believe I was dreaming because if not that would mean that there is a strange entity going around abducting weak women and he is not human. A demon perhaps..."By the way, when are you going home?" I asked while she immediately rose from

(Aurora cont'd)"So you are saying your boyfriend and his gym bro friend are hooking up?" Zoey asked with her jaw dropped while I sat on the floor, in the middle of my tiny living room with a box of tissues, soaking up my tears with them. My messy blonde hair, all over the place."Stop crying, Rora, it's not your fault that he is gay," Selene tried to console me but for some reason it made my tears worse."What can I do when I am so heartbroken?" I asked offended as they both nodded. By their extravagant dresses, it was obvious they were dressing to either go out or they already went out."This was supposed to be a happy day, your one year anniversary. This is why I am single. Men are full of shit, to think I thought Darian was an exception," Selene hissed as she got me a glass of water to quench my thirst."I know this isn't the time but I knew something was off about him," Zoey said as I just sat down there with no more tears to shed."I really thought I found the one," I said truth

(AURORA's pov)The scorching sun beat down on my skin, turning every breath into a hectic struggle. The air hung heavy, a stifling blanket that clung to me as if unwilling to let go. The asphalt beneath my feet radiated waves of heat, making each step feel like a trek through a furnace.Sweat trickled relentlessly down my temples, a constant reminder of the merciless warmth. The sky above was a relentless blue, devoid of any comforting clouds, as if even they had sought refuge from the relentless heat. The air shimmered with a tangible heat haze, distorting the landscape into wavering mirages that seemed to dance in the oppressive atmosphere.Slow and steady I pushed through, my breath accompanying me as I made my way to the garage.
