Terror gripped me as I stood up, my heartbeat fainting with fear. My body shook as I tried to steady myself, but the panic was overwhelming. The room seemed to spin around me as I stumbled forward, trying to focus on something, anything that would give me a clue.Shattered to my cores, I was unable to comprehend what had just happened with Jade. How was it possible for her to disappear so suddenly? My mind raced as I tried to make sense of it all, but I couldn't find any answers. My sixth sense was trying to hint at something, but I didn't know what it was. Was it a warning? A premonition of something to come?"Jade, where have you gone?" I whispered, staring down at the busy road below. The window of the hotel room gave me a clear view of the street, but there was no sign of her. She had vanished without a trace, leaving me alone in this unfamiliar place.As my mind raced with possibilities, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was terribly wrong. Was it the wind? The night? O
As I stepped into the college grounds, a sudden rush of emotions and memories hit me like a ton of bricks. My heart felt heavy and my mind was clouded with thoughts of Jade. The familiar surroundings of the college only seemed to intensify my emotions. The park to my left, where Jade and I used to sit and talk for hours, brought back a wave of nostalgia. The trees, once lush green, now appeared dull and lifeless, as if they too mourned the sudden disappearance of Jade.As I walked towards the main building, I felt a strange air blowing around me, pinching at me. It was as if the whole college knew about what had happened last night. I felt eyes on me, watching my every move. I didn't dare to look around, afraid of what I might see.The corridor where I first met Jade seemed to stretch on for miles as I made my way towards the cafeteria. The same corridor where Brent, her ex-boyfriend and I had our first confrontation. Memories of the argument flooded back and I shuddered at the though
Ayra POV. "What is he doing here?" I thought, upon seeing the man walking into the cafeteria. I was sitting next to Brent around the table when I saw Athen dashing in and taking a seat around one of the tables. His demeanor suggested that something was troubling him, and I vaguely knew what it was. Jade. When I saw him, the thought of jade occured to me. Where was she? Why was she not to be seen with him? Just like that a plethora of questions engulfed my mind. Yet there seemed to be no responsible interpretation to it. A memory from last night flickered in my mind, where I crouched down and my fingers touched, smothered the ashes heaped next to the bed on the floor. What it was all about. I thought. Ashes? What has it to do with the couple? What had they been doing inside the room last night? Where's jade?As my mind was taken fully by the web of these thoughts. Out of nowhere, a strange realization hit on me. Shoot."Excuse me." I said, shooting up from the chair."What's wrong
As I walked towards the ancient library located in the square tower, my mind was plagued with a multitude of questions. The dream from last night had left me reeling with confusion and uncertainty. Who was I? Was I truly a werewolf, as the voice in my dream had claimed? Or was I a human, as I had always believed? I needed answers to these questions, and the library seemed like the best place to start my search.As I pushed open the heavy wooden doors of the library, a chill ran down my spine. The room was eerily quiet, and the air was filled with the musty smell of old books. The walls were lined with ancient tomes, each filled with knowledge and artifacts from bygone eras. Trophies and other decorations hung on them like silent sentinels, reminding me of the rich history that this place held.As I entered the ancient library, my gaze was immediately drawn towards the towering racks of books lining the walls. The room was chilled and filled with the aromatic scent of old paper, giving
Travis turned to Clancy with a wide grin on his face, his eyes glowing with excitement. "Just trust me, Clancy," he said, taking her hand gently. "We have a surprise for you."Clancy looked at me, her eyebrows furrowed with confusion. "What's going on?" she asked, but I simply shrugged, trying to keep the secret safe.Travis led us through the forest, the leaves crunching under our feet. As we walked, he pointed out different plants and animals, describing their features and habits in detail. Clancy listened intently, her face lighting up with interest.As Clancy walked deeper into the forest, she couldn't believe what was unfolding before her eyes. The trees were lit up with fairy lights, creating a magical ambiance. The ground was covered in moss and ferns, creating a soft carpet under her feet. She was amazed to see a beautiful wooden table set up in the clearing, adorned with candles and flowers. A banner that read "Happy Birthday, Clancy!" was strung up between two branches.The
As she walked further away, I felt a pang of regret for not approaching her. Maybe I should have just gone up to her and asked where I had seen her before. But what if she didn't remember me? Or worse, what if I was mistaken and we had never met before?I shook my head, trying to clear my thoughts. It was just my overactive imagination playing tricks on me, I told myself. But a part of me couldn't shake off the feeling that there was something about her that was familiar.As the party continued, I tried to distract myself by mingling with the other guests. But my mind kept wandering back to the mysterious girl. Who was she? Where had I seen her before? And why did she make me feel so uneasy?I knew I had to find out the answers to these questions. And if that meant approaching her and risking embarrassment, then so be it. With newfound determination, I made up my mind to talk to her before the party was over."I shall talk to her." I firmly closed my lips.It was now time for the bigg
Ayra pov. I approached the library's entrance and pushed the door gently to avoid making any noise. The library was a peaceful place for me to enjoy the silence and study in peace. I was surprised to see Travis, my classmate, standing there with a big grin on his face."Hey, Ayra!" he exclaimed, waving at me. As he rushed towards me in an urgency, "I've been looking for you everywhere."I smiled at him and greeted him with a "Hey, Travis! What brings you here?" Unable to understand what was the urgency for."I'm here to invite you to a party that I'm planning for Clancy's birthday," he said, excitement in his voice. He heaved heavily as he ran towards me.I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. "Clancy? Who's Clancy?"Travis chuckled, "Oh, I forgot. You're new here. Clancy is my girlfriend.""Oh, okay," I said, still a little uncertain. "Why are you inviting me to her birthday party?"Travis smiled, "Well, I noticed that you don't really have any friends here yet. I thought it would be
As I walked towards the venue, my senses were overwhelmed with the subtle fragrance of flowers and the soft music playing in the background. The sound of leaves rustling under my feet, as I made my way to the clearing, was the only other sound that accompanied me.My emerald green gown, that I had chosen for this special occasion, swayed gently with the wind. It felt like the fabric was alive, moving with every step I took. The cool breeze caressed my bare arms, sending shivers down my spine.My heart was pounding against my chest with such intensity that I could almost hear it. It felt like the rhythm of the music was synchronizing with the beats of my heart. I couldn't help but wonder what was happening to me. This feeling was new, and I had never experienced anything like it before.As I approached the venue, I could see the light emanating from the fire, casting a warm glow around the area. The decorations were minimalistic, but everything was perfect. I couldn't help but feel ner
With each passing moment, the beating of my heart grew louder and more frenzied, as though trying to break free from my chest. My body was tense, and the air inside the small, roofless hut felt thick and suffocating. I couldn't help but be drawn to him, despite the fact that he was a werewolf - a prime rival of my kind, a vampire.As my gaze trailed over his hair, my mind was filled with conflicting emotions. Intrigue, desire, and a sense of danger that sent shivers down my spine. I knew the truth, that he was my enemy, but I couldn't help but be drawn to him like a moth to a flame.My thoughts were interrupted as I craned my neck to look up at the sky. The sight that met my eyes was breathtaking. The natural light of the rising sun was spreading across the horizon, painting the world in shades of orange and pink. I couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder and awe, even as fear began to creep in.As the first rays of sunlight began to spill into the hut, I knew that I was in danger. M
As I stood in the hut, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. The eerie silence was deafening, and the darkness seemed to envelope me like a shroud. Suddenly, a voice echoed through the trees, breaking the silence."You're a cursed alpha!" the voice yelled, sending shivers down my spine.I turned my head around to find the source of the voice, but there was nothing but darkness staring me in the face. My heart pounded in my chest as I struggled to maintain my balance. "Who are you?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper."That's not important," the voice replied. "Who am I? You should ask who you are. And I'm here to answer your question."The voice began to grow closer, and I felt a chill run down my spine. I was surrounded by darkness, unable to see anything around me. The voice seemed to be coming from everywhere and nowhere at the same time."What do you mean by it?" I asked, confused and uncertain.The darkness seemed to part, and a shaft of light appeared from behind the
I looked at Athen, hoping that he would wake up and save us from the witch. But to my dismay, he fainted on the floor. The witch was indeed a powerful force to confront. My nerves began to pulsate with fear as the witch let out a roar of happiness and victory. She had successfully turned me down, sucking out all my energies and powers. I watched helplessly as she approached Athen, her eyes gleaming with triumph. With a wave of her hand, Athen began to writhe in pain, as if his body was being consumed by an invisible force. The witch's laughter filled the air as she continued to drain his energy. My heart sank as I realized that we were doomed. I closed my eyes, feeling the weight of disappointment and defeat. The darkness consumed me as I lost consciousness, unable to fight any longer.When I opened my eyes, I was disoriented, unsure of where I was. It felt as though my head was spinning, my body aching with a sharp pain that ran down my spine. I felt a light touch on my cheek, almo
My eyes felt heavy, as if lead weights were attached to my lids, dragging them down with an unrelenting force. The world around me slowly faded away, consumed by the overpowering darkness that was rapidly encroaching upon me. I struggled to make sense of my surroundings, but my mind was a jumbled mess of confusion and disorientation. A metallic tang filled my nostrils, and I soon realized that blood was dripping from my nose, staining my lips with its crimson hue. The sharp, searing pain that coursed through my body reminded me of the brutal blow that had been dealt to me by my assailant. I lay there, unable to move anything except for my breath, feeling as though the very life force was being drained from my body. A heavy sense of disappointment washed over me, a bitter reminder of the reason I had come to this place in the first place. My mission was simple: save Ayra, break the spell that had been cast upon her, and bring her back to safety at the hotel. But now, as I lay helple
I stared at her with eyes full of disbelief, trying to find some resemblance of Ayra in her features. But her face, it was like that of a stranger. My mind was caught up in a whirlwind of thoughts, unable to comprehend how this woman, who looked nothing like the Ayra I knew, could possibly be her. The more I tried to process it, the more confused I became. It was as if I was standing on the edge of a precipice, unsure whether to take the leap of faith or not.A feeling of uncertainty washed over me, making me question everything. What if she was a witch, trying to lure me into her trap? I couldn't take any chances, not with Ayra's life at stake. But something in her eyes, a spark of determination, made me want to believe her.I leaned in closer, trying to get a better look at her. The sight of her tears still streaming down her cheeks sent shivers down my spine. She was hurt, badly hurt, and in desperate need of my help. As I crouched down next to her, I felt a surge of compassion was
A shiver ran down my spine as I rose from the chair, my eyes darting around the room nervously. The lady who had served me the food looked perfectly normal, but something about her made me feel uneasy. It was as if a dark cloud hung over her, threatening to engulf me at any moment. Despite my unease, I couldn't deny that the food she had served was delectable. Every bite was an explosion of flavors, a symphony of tastes that I had never experienced before.As I pushed my plate away, my heart started racing. I knew that it was time for me to leave, but my legs felt like lead, unable to move from the spot. The lady smiled at me, her eyes glistening in the dim light of the room. I felt a sudden urge to run, to escape from her clutches, but something held me back.The flavors of the food were still lingering in my mouth, tantalizing my taste buds. I couldn't put my finger on it, but there was something about the taste that felt off, almost sinister. A bitter aftertaste lingered at the bac
As I listened to the explanation given by her team lead, I couldn't help but feel unsatisfied. It was as if there was something hidden beneath the surface that he was not willing to share. The more I tried to comprehend the information he provided, the more perplexed I became.It was a chilly evening, and a misty breeze blew around me, sending sharp chills down my spine. I wrapped my arms tightly around my body, hoping to ward off the cold. As I stood behind the tree, observing the scene, I couldn't shake off the feeling of mystery and suspense that surrounded me. The team lead and the other members walked away, back into the crowd, where everyone was waiting eagerly for the big reveal. But I remained rooted to my spot, lost in thought. I couldn't help but wonder what would happen when the students found out about the missing student. How would they react? Would they be afraid? Would they feel unsafe? My mind was in a state of chaos, and I couldn't think straight. It was as if I was
As I stood near them observing the team members of our host, I noticed something peculiar on their faces. They seemed to be enjoying their refreshments, chatting casually and laughing, as if nothing was amiss. However, there was an unsettling air about them that made me unable to look away.My gaze wandered from one team member to the next, searching for any hint of discomfort or concern. But to my surprise, they all appeared to be at ease, with no signs of anxiety or worry. This made me wonder how they could be so relaxed, especially given the circumstances.Just then, our host called her team lead aside, away from the prying eyes of the other members. It was clear that they didn't want to create a scene or attract attention to themselves by divulging the fact that one of their team members, Ayra, had gone missing. The last thing they needed was for the students to panic or lose their focus over the news.As I observed the team lead move away from the group, I couldn't help but notic
I attempted to reassure myself that Ayra's team had not arrived yet and she must be with them. I repeated this explanation to myself over and over again, trying to convince my mind that everything was fine with her. However, an unrecognizable force was pulling at me, making me disbelieve at the explanation I was giving myself.My heart was racing as I stood there, waiting for Ayra to arrive. The anticipation was almost too much to bear. I could feel a bead of sweat trickle down my forehead as I anxiously looked around for any sign of her. I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was wrong.Just as I was lost in my thoughts, Travis appeared beside me and patted me on the back, bringing me back to reality. I turned to face him, feeling embarrassed for being so lost in my own head."Uh, I'm… umm.." I stuttered, not knowing how to respond."Let's go." Travis gestured, and I followed him, grateful for his presence.We walked down the stairs in silence, my mind still racing with thou
