Walking On The Eggshells

Who could he be?

I always wonder. He had to be someone special for my mother to give up her life for him. Mom jumped off the cliff for him leaving me, her own flesh and blood, behind.

It has been years but the dread and yearning is always there—as if a part of me is missing. There is restlessness, grief, and vulnerability.

For years, I have been a wandering spirit roaming around in search of solace. I am desperate to fill in anyhow.

I wish I could see him, meet him, talk to him. I want to shake him by the collar and ask him why he did what he did.

Did he really play around my mother as the wise one claims? Was there no love, devotion, and sacrifice on his part? Why did he not die along with my mother?

The subjects call my mother a fool and a traitor for choosing him above all of us. Why did he mock her faith?

I want to see the creature who made me so bitter. Where is he now? Who is he? How is he spending the remnants of her life without her? Why did he disappear when he

    ‘Don’t you dare!’ I hissed into Sierra’s ear. ‘What do you mean, Luna? I—’ ‘Don’t play games with me! You can’t be in two places at once!’ Sliding my arms around her, I hug her fiercely. ‘I know you want to be. I do, too. But you can’t.’ ‘I…I know. But I have to! I can’t endure this anymore.’ She narrows her eyes at me. Heaving a defeated sigh, I look out of the window. Seems like it’s the new hobby I have picked up—sulk. I sulk like I have been sulking all along. Sulk. Sulk. SULK! Outside, the downpour has reduced to drizzle. The car passes through a central square and stops in front of a tall tower. It is dull and rather shabby today. Shaach-eero is wailing in tears. ‘It’s your first time here. Are you excited?' I hear Ibhaan asking. He passes a folder to Kavish in the passenger seat and turns completely to me. I almost shiver under his gaze. ‘The dick that stretches your cunt.’ The text and the memory of a certain night in his bed with his head in-between my legs does no

    I clumsily follow Ibhaan into the Manor, switched on his side, took off my dirty footwear and thrust my bare legs in the cotton flip-flops kept exclusively for the visitors in the lounge and launch away to stare at the wall that behold glories. ‘It’s unbelievable.’ Sierra whispers in awe at the massive chain of golden-rimmed portrayls of creatures with fangs. ‘It’s like your palace in Ah–’ ‘Arin!’ Ibhaan is on my side in a snap and almost all of our eyes widen at Sierra’s slip of tongue. I momentarily freeze in the spot. Hell! Please tell me, he did not hear the ‘Ah’ of Ahi-Empire and ‘your palace’ in the sentence. ‘Arin!’ He calls again. Keeping my expression in check, I slowly turn to him with a small smile. ‘Ye…yeah!’ I pass through the ancient grandeur palace, through its triple series of open courtyards and corridors, and reached in the middle. Variayana Manor is Shaach-eero’s pride and Vetri Pond is the ‘jewel in the crown' of that pride. The premise is a benchma

    Looks like I have offended some unwanted heroes. Duh huh!‘Why have you never brought your gorgeous mates to any of my weddings before, Ibhaan? Oh, my! They are absolutely stunning, just like my fiance? Better.’ The fact that his eyes linger a bit longer on my cleavage pisses me off. I curl my palms to the side and count to ten. He notices the fury in my eyes yet smirks shamelessly. ‘Far better. I cannot believe you have been hiding them all this while. I am upset, ladies. I never get to see pretty faces. The young budding ladies-ah!’ The Old Bald Fart chuckles like a dirty pig taking a swig of his ‘blood frappe’. (It could be whiskey, mocktail, or plain coconut water for all I care. It’s blood-red, which makes it disgusting. His ugly pale hands around transparent glass worsen it.)His lust-dripping eyes rape Huine and me openly as he reluctantly tears it away and faces my fuming mate instead.My mate????? The little bitch is up in no time. My mate?? It repeats that I choose to ignor

  • Chaitali: The Saga begins   What Am I Supposed to Do?

    I am on an island. The air stirs on the waves, swirling over and around, rustling the trees in the jungle that stretched behind my back. Rows of palm trees are planted on my left with ample greenery full of pine trees and Indian Rosewood, and to my right is a fall that never ends. I am with a serpent who looks down with nothing but satisfying contentment in her orbs. A manly hand strokes my head. Snapping my head, I come face-to-face with someone I do not recognize. He is a bluehead male—tall, extremely pale and lean with a witty smirk on his face. The duo beams at me with parental affection. For a moment, the time stills as we look at each other. The couple’s smiles broaden the longer the time stretches. ‘Mommy?’ The words fly out of my mouth. Instantly, my palm cup over my mouth. I mumble the word one more time in disbelief. I have never used it aloud. At least, I do not remember using it aloud. My shivering gaze flickers over the female who nods at me with unshed tears

  • Chaitali: The Saga begins   Sarah?

    The Previous day— The clock had rolled off to four when we hit the road for the grand procession. The engagement was a spectacular, magical occasion with crowds cramming outside The Phoenix resembling a herd of directionless sheep. The roads were blocked throughout the city with vampires, witches, grim-reapers, ghosts, and even the fairies scattered in a confused heap at the marvellous entrance awaiting the long-due arrival of the First Son (His ugliness) and his soon-to-be bride. (A charming princess) A wave of excitement washed over the city. Tiny flags waved over the countless heads as the audience hooted, aligning with the rhythms of saxophones, trampolines, and bands of the elite Army. There were keepsake wedding souvenirs everywhere, studded brooches, wedding cards, decks, ribbons, aroma candles, figurines, calendars, cups, t-shirts, belts, bras, condoms…condoms? People are gonna put his face on their d**k. Granted, he the prick is an upset dick himself. Seriously? I giggle

    ‘Could be a past love. He couldn’t be clinging to your pseudo name at Tiffany’s. Could he?’ Ella trailed off thoughtfully and almost immediately a piercing sensation went through my heart as if someone had stabbed me with a sharp knife. I want to use the same knife to stab Ibhaan’s existence out of the goddamn world. Should I ask him about the woman? I wondered. Damn! Don’t tell me he is already cheating on the horse voice before the wedding! Oops! And here I thought the wolves to be better if not superior in that department. It’s unacceptable, immoral, unethical, and wrong. It…hurts. ‘You have not let him shove his dick in any of your holes for almost what…three weeks now? Shouldn’t you be the one responsible?’ Ella proposed rationally and I couldn’t help but defend my toes like a wounded gorilla or an equally fierce version of a resembling creature. ‘I did!’ I shrieked, balling my fist to the side. ‘Besides, ain’t it his duty to stay loyal to the she-wolf he is going to comm

    Ibhaan’s Head: ‘When it’s going to end, huh? I might as well become a skeleton here. It’s unedurable Alpha. Help me! Help. Me.’ Kavish groaned, rolling his eyes. Miraculously, he reciprocates the smiles thrown his way when internally he could be a screaming mess for all we know. ‘True, what’s the point of dragging it so long when it will only last no more than a day?’ Subhaan deadpanned, nibbling on the crispy starter. His deep blue eyes search the massive hall for the familiar face of his mate who has been stolen away by some international delicacies. Adrian, the only non-Alpha in the group, meanwhile plays with the tissue—moulding it in some eccentric shape like he always does. ‘Two whole keynote speakers droning monotonously about the all the pseudo-accomplishments of barely their FS. Nothing sexier than shrimp cocktails and an hour and a half of speeches on eternal love. Esh! Can you find anything more fascinating?’ Gusteau, Subhaan’s ever so silent and genius Beta, grunts

    Lizzian’s Head: What happened after the car ride? The side of my head throbbed like hell yet it does not stop me from travelling down memory lane. ‘You looked cute when you were jealous.’ Ibhaan had whispered in my ears out of nowhere. He was with the UN delegates and I was chatting with the Viscount of Shaach-eero. I could not retort or spit tequila when the royals were around. Only disguised glares had to do the business. Is the air of Shaach-eero intoxicated to get in the head of Alpha, the brat? When I looked over his shoulder, I could see a she-wolf who was undergoing the same torture as I was. Subhaan was not any better either nor were Sunny and Adrian. The Alphas were clinging to their mates like a fucking lizards. In anything, they were worse. It wasn't that I did not want to save Huine. I tried. He just did not leave when I politely expressed my desire to talk to his mate to avoid Luna Arin's perpetually long family. Yes, seven freaking siblings! Can anyone imagine s

    Did I follow the instructions and stayed glued to my spot like a little sweet girl? Well, to answer it…Has the earth turned upside down and the wolves become vegetarian? Have the Draculas stopped sucking blood and have witches become even a cent lesser annoying crapping rainbow? Has the moon wobbled its way to become a satellite of Mercury instead because it can’t absolutely tolerate the face of the earth and the faces residing on it? Nope. Nix. Naah. Nada. None of the sorts happened. Then would it not be a great offense if I stayed put on the spot near the itchy, annoying bushes that shiver for no apparent reason while whining amorous sounds loudly pleading for more and deeper? Don’t ask me why? I neither have the answer nor wish to peep around the bushes to figure it out because I already know and so do you. It simply does not make any sense to me. Why would somebody want to do it in the open? Since when snakes have become so rakeless and bold? Does it to you? Perverts

    Lizzy's Head:The sunrise is dazzling as the Alpha and I walk hand-in-hand along the seashore to meet the informer at the designated spot for the meeting.Dhariya is alive. Of course he’d be. Bitches don’t die that easily. The moment I heard all about it. I have been numb as if somebody had pushed me a tank full of iced water and closed the opening shut. It’s suffocating and vaguely overwhelming. All this while he had been alive yet he made no efforts to find me. What a son of a bitch!? A slow breeze flirts with my blonde tresses, sending them flying everywhere to the north. ‘He must be here any minute now.’ Ibhaan mumbles, checking his smartwatch for the seventh time. He leaves my palm and rubs it all over his arms. Ibhaan hasn’t been himself for my Lord knows how long! I couldn’t understand how he’d been dealing with the admin, especially after knowing his worst enemy and his wife is breathing anywhere near him. How had he reacted when he’d known his Luna to be someone who h

    ‘Emperor Dhairya is alive.’ I was told and surprisingly, I don’t care. I know it’s the worst news to know that your worst enemy (the Chatali’s worst enemy maybe) is breathing, seething, and ready to attack yet my mind cooks up better content to focus on. ‘Alpha, how was the meeting with the Lycan?’ Kavish asked me as soon as I walked in. To my utmost dismay, he was not sitting alone. The ‘Bastards Of Chaitali’ were already there with him. Munching on my snacks and chatting animatedly about some irrelevant and probably very stupid current affair. I had entered my study with such anger and irritation that Kavish preferred to be quiet but the ‘Bastards’ did not. I knew even with Kavish the peace will be short-lived. Being the Beta of the Taksh Pack, he had to gather courage and ask his Alpha, aka me, about the meeting so he could instruct his new favorite Himanshu to record it in the miserable book of Minutes. It’s not casual when the Lycan summons someone at urgent notice including

    ‘He said that?’ The familiar voice gasps in astonishment. It has to be a response to something the other soft mumble has said. And I’ve heard it before. ‘Yes.’ The aforementioned one, reply. Its punctuation is shaken a bit. I could tell it was said with a nod at another moment. ‘I would not have believed it if it were not for my own ears. It was Alpha Ibhaan and Alpha of that...I don't remember the name but he was a wolf from some pack. I saw him at Huine’s party. A whore for a wolf, I am telling you...he tried to hit on me. I cannot even tell you the thing he asked. He...he...I think we are doing it for nothing. This cannot happen. Wolves and ser-’‘It must!’ The familiar voice is firm with determination. She is not very pleased with what has ever been told to her. On anything, it was very upset as if it had been gravely offended. ‘I don’t care if he did something so...ugh! I don’t care. It is none of my business. What matters...what matters is that he does not get to know it until

    ‘They are coming?’ I informed my mate, forgetting all about Suzan in a moment. ‘Who?’ She grumbled irritatedly. Her mood swings have become a fresh concern but I’d rather ignore them. ‘My friends.’ I told her. And there were the last words we’d exchanged before my friends arrived in the Empire. In the evening, when they finally came—‘Come out, Bastard. I’m waiting.’ I inform my friend, Adrian on the phone after I park my car outside his hotel. I just do not feel like going inside to pick him up and go through the security scrutiny for that rascal. After all, he is the shitty piece of werewolf ever inhabiting the plant. ‘Coming.’ I growl into the phone and I do not need a gypsy to interpret his adventurous night in the mystical land. ‘You asshole, you did not get up yet. Did you?’ I clutch the steering wheel tighter, gritting my teeth. I knew it. I knew it was a bad idea. What was I even thinking in the first place?It is Sunday morning, and we have to go inspect some facts to r

    It somehow personifies the restless deep with me. I’m careless of the uncertainity of future or of what would become of my territory and the Empire or whether I’d be recognized as a Lycan, or whether my mate truly is an Empress in disguise that is, if she is—I’d be tantalized at the turns of events for it’s nearly impossible for destiny to be so on point. Very often my own thoughts surpise me! I couldn’t believe never once I thought of what might have actually become of Arin and whether the captured Serpent knows anything for whom my mate is ready to wage war. ‘She knows something.’ Kavish had recently grumbled his annoyance. ‘It’s just that she is so devoted towards her mistress and the Empire that she’d rather die. And I fear their Emperor ain’t dead too.’ And from that day on, there is always a new revelation concerning the Empire and its rulers. Some even claimed that they had spotted Emperor Dhairya lurking around and I all but want to giggle like a school girl at their excl

    Anxiety is the worst of chronic disease if it exceeds the threshold. In a way, it’s like sugar. It’s pleasant if in moderation but the moment it overloads, it’s gonna yell disaster. Moreover, the way it gives rise to desperation. It’s almost scary. My feet have grown a mind of their own. I no longer have, what do they say? Control? Precisely! I do not have control of my feet, my brain, my heart, and my body. Emotions, you say? It keeps dragging me back to the Empress’s palace behind the castle, looking down the tiny hill.The white marvelous colossal building with a fence of Deodar, Peepal, and maple trees has a magnet while my body seems to have an accelerated amount of iron. The natural laws do all the remaining work and I find myself strolling near the fountain outside the entrance at every chance I can get.There is something about the place that has captivated my heart. Or it could be the owner? Nope. Not the owner, but a portrait of the deceased owner. I just can't seem to

    Then, there was silence as…mum… well silency silence of a special silence. Arin stopped dead in her tracks, shuddering slightly. Even from a yard's distance I could hear her ragged breath. Sweat beads glistened everywhere on her face, neck, bo—everywhere. The wrath of the moments before subsided when the possibility of deadly events sunk in. ‘Damn it! I could have died.’ I was startled. The shot was ear-piercing enough to vibrate the walls of the castle. In less than two minutes, Shantanu was at my side and Himanshu and Siera were at Arin’s side.Himanshu had an impressive speed for an omega while Siera took her own sweet time, strolling near the igloo-shaped tree, huffing and puffing for every breath. I made a mental note of it. She was evidently unfit to protect Luna at this rate. ‘Alpha? Luna? Are you alright?’ Shantanu hurried once over to the guards. His flashy new fully-loaded toy is out immediately.‘Drop your weapons now!’ He commanded. ‘¡Señor! No era mi intención ofend
