Crucial Desires It's here.
“Eve?! EVE?!!”Ouch.. “Jace? June? Anyone?!”My vision was still blurry and fluctuating colours. The area around me was pale, yet all I could feel was darkness.“Agh,” I look down at my knee and figured it was injured. Blood was streaming down like water and I couldn’t find it anywhere near me.“J-Jace?!”I fell down on the ground and lay there for a while. Looking up at the sky, I thought I’d already died. It was looking so peaceful.“How did I get here?” I ask myself. I must be going crazy if I’m talking to no one but me.Suddenly, I see a reflection in the corner of my eyes.“Look, if you’re Satan, give me a second. My leg hurts even if I’m here.”“Baby?”I quickly got up, as I figured it wasn’t just anyone but my mother.“Mom? W-what are you doing here?!” I tried to get up and walked over to my mother’s side. “How did you..?”“I’m..sorry, Hailey. I shouldn’t have kept this from you.” She said.“W-What? What are you talking about?!” I asked, all confused about every single thing th
Crucial Desires Pay the Price.
The apprehension was growing as the trembling of the earth grew louder.“W-what do we do now, Jace?” I whispered to him. Before he could say or react, we catch a glimpse of the giant.It was....giant. He had two horns on each top side of his head. His eyes were big, his skin was dark brown, and his mouth was like a rogue wolf. I could see those big fangs coming out.The fangs weren’t the big issue here. The giant was. Even the small finger of its foot can kill us. The giant still didn’t know that we were here, so it’s a good sign.It turned around and walked right to us, taking the jar away, through which we were hiding. But it still didn’t see us.“Jace?” I call him. “Look, it’s braids. See that one on the left side? There’s a cloth that’s covering something.” Jace stared at the giant’s braids and figured, that is what we are looking for.“It’s the key! It’s tied to the giant’s braid!”“We found it,” I smile as I glanced at Jace, who was already melting in mine. “Good work, Hailey,”
Crucial Desires The Key.
“Hailey, NO!” I hear Jace screaming, and the Giant launching an attack, not showing any level of mercy. But I didn’t back up. I knew two things.First, I can’t let my team lose, not because I chose to be weak. I had to fight this off. Because, second, I knew giants are slow.Before the giant’s fists could reach me, something changed in me. My body temperature rose, my skin was burning like fire, my eyes went broad and my nails left my skin like bullets coming out of the tips of my fingers.What came were claws.I howled as I shapeshifted into a wolf the second I jumped off the cabinet. I landed on all of my feet in a perfect manner and opened my eyes, staring at Victoria right in front of me.“W-what the?!” She stumbled on the floor, looking confused.“Y--you can’t shapeshift. I..I knew you weren’t able to shapeshift..I..” Victoria fumbled as I smiled in my own wolfy way.I took a few steps towards her, showing my perfectly sharp teeth and growing at her.“This is exactly what you’ll
Crucial Desires That Crystal Orb.
I opened the door and revealed what was behind it. Sheer heaven. It was something I’d never seen before. That we all haven’t seen before.I walk in, and the others followed. I stare at all these orbs and crystals lying on the ground. It was the perfect reflection of the universe filled with stars.All these fairies, these birds, mystical creatures. Everyone was here.“We made it,” Eve says. And before anyone else could respond, our eyes lands on the shiniest star. The Orb.“It’s...beautiful,” say as we all make our way to the monument where the Orb was kept safe. We circle around it, holding hands.“Who wants to take it?” June asks.“It should be you, Hailey,” Jace replied, and everyone agreed.“Wh-what? Why me?!”“Isn’t that obvious? We won this tournament because of you, Hailey. Without your sharp thinking and courage, we couldn’t have come this far.“It’s not true, you guys. We all were in this together. We all did this together. Without your support and without you all believing i
Crucial Desires Always In My Heart.
----I was back in my hometown. With my people, with my family. Yet, it was obvious that it would feel emptier than usual.I couldn’t believe my mother was gone. Dad told me she fell sick a few days back. No one could really know the true reason behind her falling ill like that and so sudden.It was like today she caught a fever and the next day, she was gone.I was there at my mother’s burial. I could see my friends. Our university gave me a few days off. But June and the others had to go back today. Though they were granted to come, visit me on alternative days.“Hailey?” I peer up at my Dad who was standing right beside me. “Do you want to say something to your mother?” He asked.I looked around. Everyone’s eyes were fixed on me. I nodded weakly and left my place, walking at the head of my mother’s casket.“I...” I couldn’t even utter a word. I couldn’t bear this. She was my best friend. The one who always believed in me. Who wanted nothing, but what’s best for me? She was my bigge
Crucial Desires Find Me.
--Hailey, please, don’t. It’s...it’s me.I could hear whispering, but my vision was blank. I could definitely hear Jace’s voice. But he was nowhere around me.“Hailey...Please... Look at me, it’s me.”Finally, I opened my eyes and saw Jace beneath my claws. I was in my werewolf form, not even knowing when I first turned.“What the?” Jace had one of his hands up on my neck in protection, and the other was held by me on the ground.“Jace?” I look around and find everyone staring at me. My Dad was there, all shocked because he still didn’t know about my transformation.“Hailey, baby? It’s alright. It’s us. It’s only us. Leave him, baby. He’s your friend.” Dad spoke to me in a soft voice, But I was...scared. I quickly took a steps back and ran away.“HAILEY!” I could hear Jace calling out to me.“I should go after her,” Jace says, but June stopped him.“Let her father go, Jace. It’s...it may be not our place right now.”I ran and went straight into my room. I jumped and crashed into my w
Crucial Desires Love, Maybe.
“ENOUGH!” I screamed at myself. Opening my eyes, I finally gained control over my thoughts and visions for the first time. I looked down at my hands. They were burning and flaming fire. A blue fire.The heat wasn’t affecting my skin in any way. I was feeling...powerful than usual. It felt like my senses were finally getting used to somewhere where they should be. I was unstoppable.“Hailey?”I look back and find Jace staring at me. He had his hand covering his shoulder. It was bleeding.“Please tell me, it wasn’t me who did that?”Jace looked down and figured he might have scared me by accidentally highlighting his cuts.“No, no, Hailey. You didn’t.”“How can you say that? Every single person out there knows who did this. A fucking monster. The one beast who can’t even control her thoughts. You can’t even shift on command. Who can’t even respect her own mother’s funeral?”“Hey, hey.” Jace walked over to his pace was soft but quick. He pulled me close and wrapped his arms around me. Se
Crucial Desires Abandoned.
‘Find me, love. I’m your destiny. The answer to all your questions.’I knew I was dreaming. Correction, I wasn’t only dreaming, I was walking around the forest. I dark, dense forest. And I could see a small cottage in front of me.The voices were coming from there. I know I shouldn’t be going there, but I did.“Who’s there?” I say. When suddenly, the door opened and there came an old lady.“You’re here,” she says. She was very old. Very...very old. She had a thick stick with her, making her able to walk. She wore this black long gown. Her eyes were deep hazel. And wrinkles covered most of her face.“Why’re you calling out to me?” I ask her.“Because I’m the answer to all your questions, Little one.”“H-Why would you think that I need answers?”“Because I’ve been watching you. I’ve been watching you since you were a baby. I protected you.”“You protected me? From what?”“The dark shadow with the red eyes, arghh,” she started coughing. Coughing blood. I walked up to her to help her out,

Crucial Desires All The Hurt.
“Yes, yes, I did. I found you because you told me so.” I say to her. It was always like she was impressed. Impressed by my actions, my courage and the audacity to bring and risk someone else’s life too.Somehow, I knew that Constellation knew about Ms Wallace around. Of course, if someone’s asking you to come visit them discreetly, they want to be discreet. Me, bringing Ms Wallace was a break of trust and boundaries.“I see you brought a friend with you.” She says, pointing in a direction behind me.“You were the only one who said no to trust people, so I guess that’s all I’m doing. For now, I don’t trust you, but I do trust Ms Wallace that, if something goes sideways, she’ll help.”Constellation smiled, exposing her gritted blackish teeth. Even her tongue was dark. It was almost like she was a dark witch, not a good one. Her aura was the only thing that led me to think this was a bad idea.“Follow me,” she says.“Follow you where?!”“You’ll find out soon,” and just like that, she sta
Crucial Desires Dream.
Prom was coming. Before that, our mid-semesters were coming. Was I prepared? Hell no. I wasn’t. Sure, I was doing great in my lectures. I paid attention and was, an A-grade student. But..I guess there was something that was keeping me from studying.That old lady. Constellation.I knew Ms Wallace knew something about her. Something that no one else knows about. I just knew it, deep in my heart. But I guess I can’t really blame her for not telling me. I was keeping a few secrets from her myself, and so was she.We were just playing...safe.A few days went by. Ms Wallace and I agreed not to talk about this to anyone else. Not Eve, not June. not anyone. Not ever my Dad. And I accepted her rules. It was always better this way. I’ve already put a risk on Eve before. Not in hell would I do it once again.And Valentine? Can’t say I didn’t miss him, but I sure in hell didn’t call out to him.Maybe...just maybe June was right? What if he was a tribrid? What if he was, and is that why he is sti
Crucial Desires I'm The Immortal One.
“Well, if you’re trying to send me on the right path, and if you’re trying to help me live my life. Let’s start by telling me who you are.”The old woman smiled. It was almost like she was toying with me, which made me fucking uncomfortable. She talks about trust and I don’t even know who she is.Or maybe, maybe I do?“Who are you?” I asked in a dominating voice.“I..am the ancient one. I am the immortal one. I am...Constellation.”“Constellation? As in stars?”“As in an ancient creature, young one.”“Creature? Well, that’s not new to me. We’re all creatures here..just not old.”“You’ve grown. A lot faster and more intelligent than I thought. Only, you’ve become weak.”“Weak? Well, if you helped me in some way, it didn’t make my life much easier. It made my life worse. I have these freaking nightmares and visions that I shouldn’t even suppose to be seeing. And now you’ve come again, saying you wanna help?”“No thanks. I’m way okay being weak than begging for your help.”“Who said you’
Crucial Desires That's Not What Happened.
Ms Wallace stared at me for a while. Felt like she was trying to figure out whether to help me or not. After, the big act, I put it in front of her and Dad.“Look, I know that I have no reason to ask you something like this. Not after the way I treated you at my Mother’s funeral, but.”I stare at her eyes and let it all out.“Ms Wallace, these nightmares that I always have are the worst. Every emotion I feel, I feel in reality. Every injury I get, I feel the pain of it on my body. Every person I see or meet, it feels like I know them, but I actually don’t.”“I don’t know at this point who to trust and who to not. It all feels real, but then I wake up in the real world. And I just sit there and curse myself for being this different. I don’t want to be this person.”“Adult life or college life. It’s all about finding the real you. How can I even do that when I don't even know if I’m living in the real world or not?!”She stayed quiet, maybe addressing the scenario before speaking again.

Crucial Desires Starting To Hurt.
Before I could respond to this news, the bell rang. It was time for our classes. June sighed repulsively and calmed her anger down.“Look, Hailey. I know you must hate me. And I’m sorry that I clashed with you like I did just now. But...that guy gave me the vibes that I did not like. And..You have to know that I’m just looking out for you. You..know that, right?”I stared at her, and quickly diverted my eyes. Maybe she misunderstood him. If Valentine was a tribrid. He would have told me. But...June is only one step backwards for being a tribrid herself. She knows what she’s talking about.“I..” I fluttered as she recognized my uneasiness, changing the subject.“Okay, look. We don’t have to talk about this right now. And don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone about your secret prince charming. Just...try not to hide stuff from us, Hailey. We’re all your friends here.”As soon as June let out her frustration, she walked out of the bathroom, leaving me alone. I knew she was disappointed. That
