"Io amo I solidi" means I love money. “A dopo bel Ragazzo” means see you later beautiful boy.
★★★ Isabella entered her room and locked the door behind her. Her back touched the door, and she looked at her bed blankly. Sometimes silence was better. It gave you time to think about the thing you've done. How much did they cost you? Are they worth it? At first, Isabella was quiet and introverted. She lived a simple and bland life where everything was black and white, not that it bothered her.Although there was no dearth of people around her at that time, someone or the other was always there for her. One thing she lacked earlier was the different emotions she now had. Her chest heaved up and down with every breath, pursing her lips as she smoothed her hair with fingers. When she took a step ahead from the door after gathering emotions in silence, she heard her father. "Bella, will you eat?" "No, father. I am full. I want to sleep," replied Isabella with confidence to sound normal as her father had already asked her if she was in trouble when she entered and hugged her father
★★★★ As the following day arrived, three of them sat under a tree quietly on the campus. Yesterday was a mess for them. They hadn't talked about it yet with anyone. Neither anyone would believe them. "Do you think Casey's father knew or how they didn't report her missing?" Bethany asked. She didn't know what happened because she had been sleeping all night and it wasn't natural. True To be told, she knew that someone had done this intentionally. "I don't know," Danny whispered. "I am wondering about how we failed to figure out Casey. She used to be a sweet, quiet girl. How did she end up in a cult group?" Danny added, drawing her brows together with deep thoughts. "This proves that we are still naïve," concluded Bethany. She took his phone out of her bag and opened her Instagram account to study Casey's account to obtain some information about her involvement with the cult. She must have been with the cult group longer. Maybe she had left some information that could lead them to C
★★★★ "How could that be?" Bella mumbled, scrolling the same page up and down. Creepiness had felt all over her body as if someone had just poured cold water over her head and it slipped down her spine."Probably you have read another book, chill. Let's go," Danny said and dragged Bella, who still believed she had read the same book. Although Danny and Bethany had missed the mark, the book had left a significant influence on Bella."Where are we going?" Isabella asked. "You are an alien, no doubt about it. Have you forgotten the theme rave-up before the game? I have heard that this year will be a blast. The seniors have convinced the college that the party will go on late at night and they decided the party will be a themed one," Bethany said to Bella, who was clueless about everything despite being the same college student. "I'm not into it," Bella refused without hesitation. She didn't attend the party for the past two years, nor was she keen to join this year. "We will not accep
★★★ After bathing, Isabella sat on the bed with her laptop and tea. This tea worked as a sleep tonic, which Aunt Merry brought to her. The first thing she did was check her email. She wouldn't lie to check the mail of a certain person. There was no new mail but had a history of their last conversation. Isabella sighed and then searched for the book as she was not satisfied with the result in the morning. But she got the same information. However, her eyes stumbled upon a certain cross-marked area. When she opened it, there was an article she found about the book which was written by st. cole, a writer who committed suicide the next day. "I am a small writer. But I got fascinated by this book. It made me search for it. I scoured for this book so that I can have it, but it had been lost for decades. Somehow, I came to know about a village where everything started. The 'Blackhound village.' This community is created by a demon, as they claimed, and they've isolated themselves from th
★★★"What happened?" Danny asked Bella as soon as she got into the car."Nothing. I was thinking, should we ask them about Casey?" Bella asked, hiding the truth. The woman's words could not be forgotten, but if she told her words to her friends, they would certainly change the way towards their home."Do you think they'll tell us about Casey? No chance. They are very secretive. You can mark my words. They won't give you a chance to make a single video on them," Bethany said, pointing her fingers at Bella.The only thing she was hoping for is that they don't get caught by them or if they get stuck in the village, then no one will find their existence."Okay, relax. We won't ask them," Bella assured sternly. Last night she hadn't considered Bethany's words important, but now she was worried too. She didn't know if they were making the right decisions to go there.The car ran, leaving the city behind, and they came to the outskirts. After going a little further, they found a signboard wi
★★★★ Isabella, Danny, and Bethany were sitting on a wooden bench while the villagers looked at them blankly for a second before tilting their heads down. Odd enough to be freaked out. Not to mention that they were shocked how a Bella had been so calm until now. A beautiful lady brought them water, which they found risky. They could not dare to eat anything from this village. Who knew what kind of intoxicant they had mixed in the water? She carefully offered the water, and the three of them took it with a smile. The next second, they placed the water glass beside them without drinking it. "Where are you from, young girls?" they heard the old lady who sat on a big stool in front of them and the villagers moved away from them and made a suitable distance. "We are from the nearby town," Danny answered. But a thing she noticed was that the woman was interested in Isabella as if the question was asked of Bella. Because when she answered, the old woman forced a smile at her. She wasn't s
★★★★Isabella slept well at night because she was tired from the journey. Her mind was calm and peaceful, otherwise different thoughts would find a way to disrupt her sleep every night. The journey during the day did not go in vain, as she concluded that the book she had read was a replica. But that didn't mean that she had believed everything that woman said.Although her words were enough to get her attention, she still believed that the woman was not entirely truthful.How can a book choose a person? Isn't it too much for someone to believe?The following day started with a call and Bella's sleep was disturbed. It was from Noah. Isabella was not happy at all. Still, she received it with annoyance."Morning... what happened?" Isabella's murky voice asked."Morning... accept the video call. It's urgent," Isabella heard Noah's loud voice and a video call ensued.As soon as she accepted, a man carrying two outfits came into the view."Which one?" Noah asked about the outfits. Both were
★★★★It was night, Isabella was ready with her mother's dress. She couldn't believe how good it fitted. Her mother and her body were not the same, yet the dress hugged her body perfectly. A little short for her because she's never worn a mid-thigh length dress.However, she felt confident wearing her mother's outfit. She wore minimal accessories and opted for lace-up white heels.A car honked outside her house. Certainly, it was Noah. Bethany and Danny were already on their way to college. She grabbed her wings and mask and went out, locking the door behind her.Noah got out of the car and waited for Bella to come out. He turned himself into a devil wearing a black suit with a white shirt and button-down on his chest, paired up with fake horns. Conversely, one could die on his looks. He leaned against the car and looked toward the door when he heard an unlocking sound.A beautiful woman came out with wings in her hand. Her petite figure was gleaming like a descendant angel. She wa
★★★ 15 days later; Sunday; The happiest song had been sung by birds as the morning had emerged with a fresh zest for life. In preparation for the day, the flower garden had blossomed. Winter began, so it was a little cold but the day was beautiful. A small, lovely woman moved her body on a large queen bed while groans escaped her mouth. She gradually opened her eyes. She noticed the white roof as her blurry vision began to fade. Her gaze was drawn to the light coming in through the bay window. She raised her hand and touched her face in bafflement. She mumbled, “Am I alive?” “How can I let you die?” Alexander's sudden voice jolted Bella's heart from her ribcage. She looked at the door and saw him standing there with a glass of water. “Alex,” she choked her words. Alexander smiled with his teeth open and went up to the bed. His purple eyes gave Bella the same old feeling. She got emotional and happy. Even though she wanted to ask if he was real, Bella could not able to utter any
★★★Alexander was told to retreat by the demons watching over the village. They bowed their heads to the king but were powerless to defy Bael's command."I'd prefer not to kill my army. Thus, move aside. If you obey my commands, you can rest assured that no force will use its might against you," Alexander growled.“My king, forgive our boldness. We have no choice but to oppose you."One of the demons spoke up and flew towards Alexander, who was in his devil form with the crown on his head.Alexander grabbed the demon's head and pulled it apart from his body. The blood splattered on Alex, but he had issued a strong warning.“All of you are my army, so it will be unfortunate if no one survives,” Alexander said as he advanced.Due to their collective strength, the demons all decided to attack the king at once after first weakening him.One of them used wind power stronger than a storm, causing the tree around Alexander to uproot from the soil. Despite its immense power, it was in
★★★Bella wiped her tears from her cheeks and said, "Your doom is near, Lilith.” When she was ready to stand up, she gently placed Noah's head on the ground.“You will get the worst end.” Bella's determined gaze longed to knife Lilith to death for killing Noah. However, Lilith's following sentence quenched Bella's rage.Lilith threw her arms in the air and said, "I hope you wish a good end for your father and dear friends." Bella followed her hand by turning around, and as she did, she caught a glimpse of her father and her friends, who were being detained by the Blackhound villagers.When Bella saw her father and friends lying motionless and blue, her very soul crumbled to dust.She advanced towards them on her unsteady feet."What did you do to him?" Bella screamed as she cupped her father's face.Lilith's giggle set Bella's blood on fire. She spoke with the great threat, turning around to face Lilith, "If a slight harm comes to them, I will bend hell to make you suffer, and
★★★"You're a complete moron. After everything I've done to save you and offer you the opportunity to live, you are determined to betray me," Casey demanded loudly, baring her razor-sharp fangs.She was upset because Noah had lied to her. He extended his hand and convinced her that he was willing to walk with her, but only to deceive her. He had already devised a strategy to save Bella in the back of his mind.Noah sprang up, his eyes blazed. His one hand gently pushed Bella behind him because she meant the world to him. He didn't get a chance to save her from his father, but nothing could stop him from taking Bella from this place right now.“Let her go, Casey. She is our friend,” Noah said, trying to make Casey calm. He would be at ease if Casey became ready to help them then it would be easier to escape. He had to manipulate her.“Yes, our wonderful buddy who is more poisonous than a snake," Casey grumbled, her jaws clenched. Black veins began to appear on her pale skin. As so
★★Although Alexander had additional plans for Bella, her constant worry for her father put an end to everything. He grudgingly complied with her request. Additionally, he would learn what precipitated Bella's abrupt transformation.Alexander wanted to enter Bella's home when they arrived there, but Bella refused, saying that her father would not appreciate it if he found out she had been living with him.Alexander's veins on his forehead went stiff when he realized Bella was being bothered by a dreadful thing that placed her on alert as well as compelled her to cover her mouth. He was helpless to act.He sat in his car for a while, his hands tightly gripping the wheel. Alexander closed his eyes in an attempt to spy on Bella, in particular, to know why she made an excuse to push him away. But his power was immediately returned to him. Although he was conscious that his abilities had been diminished, this was his forte. Why would it misfire on him? Alexander ruminated.“Unless som
★★★In the dream, Bella felt something constrict her breathing by choking her neck. She was unable to draw even a single breath. Immediately, a familiar voice suddenly took her off guard.“Bella, help me.”“Dad, Dad!!” Bella saw her father in blood. He could hardly open his eyes, since his lips were bleeding. Bella’s core trembled fiercely.“Dad,”Bella tried to reach him but was unable to do so. Something kept her feet firmly planted.Suddenly, Lilith appeared out of nowhere to welcome Bella, who came out of the shadows with a threatening smile and blood on the corner of her lips.“What did you do to my father? What he has done to you?” Bella screamed, forcing her feet to move but not to avail.“As of right now, he is OK. Regarding your father’s future, I am unable to make any promises,” Lilith said with a smile on her lips, “Perhaps I’ll shorten his life. She grabbed Bella’s father by the neck and hauled him to his feet while her eyes shone crimson.“Please stop,” Bella yel
★★Bella clenched her teeth and tightened her body. She was close to passing out from the anguish. It was a pleasant pang. Moving away from Alexander the cruel, she wrinkled her brows and vowed to further the pain in the hopes that he would submit.She stepped ahead a little, then turned around with her alluring frame with the hand on the wall as she smirked at the crouched Alex, who still bothering his head on the stunt Bella would pull. He was neither down to submit, but at least he wanted to prepare for the counterattack Bella was thinking because he always found himself at a tight point.“What is it?” Alexander asked as his lips curled into a wicked smile. He stood up, not averting his gaze from her as his shoulder leaned against the cold wall and anticipated what Bella could do.At that exact moment, Bella licked her lower lip, gliding her tongue over it, and took her hand seductively to her muff. Sticking a finger out, she pointed at her core.Alexander’s eyes shaded into r
★★★ “What?” His displeasing reply made its way out of his lips as Alexander frowned, straightening his spine. He was shocked, not going to lie, that he obeyed Bella’s words. It voluntarily made him stop and listen to what she wanted to say. “Yes. I am dead serious about my decision regarding your activity. If you listen to me now, you will get plenty of time to do it. Otherwise, you'll end up washing your hands with mud,” Bella said, caressing his chin with her fingers, the alluring man she could not deny. Nudging him a little, she walked past him into the shower. Without any further remarks that might try his patience, she said, “Please, Alex. I don't want to faint.” Confident with this word, ‘Please' she would not be touched, Bella turned on the shower with her naked back to the devil. The devil growled inside; the eyes evolved into a red hue from purple and he headed toward her who was dripping with water. How could the water be lucky? He snickered. Bella was enjoying the silen
★★ “I have things inside, Bella. Be a good girl and open the door,” Alexander said gently despite being perturbed by the lust for her that was almost in the tip and would be blasted in a moment. “No, I can’t see anything here,” Bella immediately refuted his wish, knowing what he had in his mind would lead to the same thing Bella didn’t want again. “Since you know who I am, there is more way to enter. But then your fear would become reality if you know what I mean,” Alexander threatened in a soft tone with a firm outcome. he right now wanted to join her and he would at any cost. The door continued to knock. “I am impatient, Bella. I expect you to be a wise girl.” Bella stared hard at the door before finally going to open it. She knew what sort of repercussions she’d get if Alex use other ways to enter the bathroom. Wrapping herself with the towel, she opened the door for him, “Where is your thing? Stay here and tell me,” she said, blocking the entrance with her body. Alexander gle
