I slowly open my eyes waking up from a very sound and peaceful sleep, and I try to adjust my eyes to the bright light spilling in from the window.I sit up on the bed and I look around to find out that I am alone and in Noah’s room.I look at the alarm clock at the head of the bed and I am shocked to see that it is already mid-afternoon.Though I feel completely relaxed, my mind still feels foggy as I try to remember how and why I am waking up this late in the afternoon, feeling extremely comfortable and refreshed like I had just had the best spa treatment of my life.Feeling the need to urinate, I stand up and just as I balance my weight on my legs, I feel a sharp sting, between my legs and as I try taking a step, it becomes even more intense and just as sudden as the sting, all events that led to it comes back into my mind.I gasp and my eyes widen in recollection of what happened.After the initial second of surprise, I feel a sense of fulfillment wash over me, not surprisingly, as

NOAH’S POV “ What do you mean by the Luna is gone? I hear Liam yell into the phone as his eyebrows furrow in annoyance. He looks at me silently informing me about this new development, expecting a reaction but none comes to my feature as I maintain a passive look, not in the least bit bothered that she had tried to run away. “ So she didn’t have an escort with her?” I hear him ask before tuning him out and focusing on driving. The chances of her escape plan working out are very slim, if only luck was on her side, or if only the circumstances were different. Maybe a circumstance where I didn’t feel my senses twinge consistently and almost painfully just to be close to her, or a circumstance where she didn’t have to take courage and confidence by its neck and restore an entire world back, and the most pressing circumstance, bordering down on my new acknowledged emotions that under any situation, I wouldn’t be able to let her go. After that night of pleasure, realization came crashi

JASMINE’S POV It’s been four days after my futile attempt to escape with Noah avoiding being in the same room with me. We started an insane routine of privacy and withdrawal, with me waking up in my assigned room each morning to Emerald’s vibrant voice and carrying out the day in a dark room with just a stick of candle that I have to magically turn on, which I must add hasn’t been very fruitful, and then going back to bed tired and frustrated. The tiredness comes from having to stay in a dark room and somehow turn into Harry Potter without a wand, having to stare into the darkness for hours without doing anything but focus on something but nothing in particular, and despite Emerald’s advice, nothing ever happens. The frustration comes from having to hear Noah’s voice, see his face, get inches close to his godly, drool-worthy body, get turned on and needy with fantasies and imagination but then having him avoid being around me for more than two seconds and making me feel like he’s s

NOAH’S POVI see the determined look in her eyes as she probes me for an honest answer and I realize that she has no intention of letting it go, so I move away from her, creating some distance between us before I throw all forms of sensible reasoning out the window and ravage her just as my body badly craves.I sit on the bed somewhat stalling before I have to answer her question because I’m certain that there’s no way in hades that she’ll like my response.“ It’s a gift.” I simply to avoid giving her the answer to the actual meaning of what her question implied.“ I know, but considering that you’ve not said a word to me for days now, I would think there’s a deeper meaning to this gift.” She says with resolve and certainty as she looks crossly at me, with her voice firmer than its raspy aroused tone a minute ago.I remain silent for a moment, staring at her compelling eyes and I see the underlying trust and belief that I wouldn’t lie to her and I feel myself slowly losing the ba

JASMINE’S POV I look at the beautiful middle-aged female in front of me, rendering my complete focus to her to avoid thinking about the unbelievably frustrating male in front of me. I left his room with an ache in my heart, a feeling I’ve never had before and it left me disoriented as I recollected every word he said to me and the implication it has on our relationship. “ I’m surprised you remember me, we didn’t even meet officially.” Sharain says to me with an impressed smile on her face. “ I remember seeing you but I’m not sure where or when.” I say to her completely ignoring Noah’s overwhelming presence in the room. His words sliced through me like a razor-sharp blade, and his lack of trust in me was like a painful jab in my heart. “ I can understand that, it has been a while. I attended your grandmother’s funeral.” She says and I immediately recollect seeing her at the extravagant party my brother threw. “ You were the lady who performed on stage right? You rendered an amaz

NOAH’S POV I watch Jasmine’s reaction to all Shania has said closely and not surprisingly I see her zone out as her breathing becomes more rapid as she digests everything that she has just heard. “ Jasmine, are you okay?” I ask her as I move to a seat closer to her, worried that she might not take it well. I take her hand in mine and rub it tenderly as she turns and faces me with a lost look. I can understand why she is feeling this way, it’s a lot to take in that you have lived life in a different skin, being someone else than who you are meant to be and suddenly your entire life purpose is told to have been predestined having connections with all you thought was normal and simple, complicating the memories you have and leaving you shallow, feeling like a newborn in a life you have lived for years. I felt a similar way once. “ Thank you.” She says to Sharain with a lost smile. “ It’s my pleasure Luna.” Sharain says as she stands up “ I’ll leave you both for now.” She says to b

JASMINE’S POV It’s a week after the heartwarming incident with Noah and I’m currently on my bed having just woken up after my afternoon nap which Noah made compulsory every day ever since he took over as my new witch instructor. Ever since the bittersweet incident with him where he finally let me have a glimpse of what lies deep within that ancient, immortal mind of his, things have become tremendously lot smoother between us, as the thick wall of seclusion that he put up isn’t present anymore and I see the real effort he is putting into being open about his emotions. Even though no sexual activity has been carried out between both of us since then, minus the usual zaps of pleasure and sensual tingles when we touch each other, we both put a boundary between our friendly communication with each other and our sexual interaction, limiting as much physical contact as we can aid our cause. Besides, I don’t think I’m even ready to think deeply about the sexual aspect of our relationship

NOAH’S POVToday is the day I dread most in the entire 365 days of the year and each time it comes, it becomes worse to bear as I remember everything that happened and how long people have had to survive with this punishment.One would think that considering how long I’ve lived, this feeling of guilt would get better as each year passes by, but that’s not the case, as it gets a whole lot worse, because I am reminded of all the things I’ve lost and all I’ve made others lose.I was furious, underneath that anger, I was scared and I took it too far, I lost control and everything went haywire.Now look at what I have- happiness, and as much as I try to deny it every day, I feel it blooming in my heart, and every day, as a result of this happiness, I become even more miserable.But today, today just happens to be the day when I have a rush of reasons crowding my mind and reminding me of why I cannot be happy when I made others suffer, reminding me of how incapable I am of being a lead

THIRD PERSON POVThe air is tense as magical energy fills the room while spells are being muttered by Hecate, who has a bowl of water in her hand.She has her eyes closed and focuses solely on the bowl in her palms, channeling energy into the spell but still regarding the domineering presence in the room.The King of the underworld stands dominantly in the center of the room oozing a dark suppressing aura, right in front of her as she still carries out her spell.He chose to see her personally this time knowing the delicacy of the plan phase.The Darhk’s need to inform him of the progress in convincing the pixies to get sacrificed for the ritual.Knowing he has limited time on earth, he stands impatiently waiting for her to finish her spell.“What is the progress of the ritual right now?” he asks with a clipped tone.Lien has stood in his spot for two minutes and his aggravation keeps growing with each second Hecate doesn’t provide the answer he needs.“The witches are alread

NOAH’S POV“Why does Sharain want to see me?” I hear Jasmine's voice as she walks into my room putting her hair in a bun.“I’m not certain, she’s never direct with anything she says,” I say nonchalantly with my eyes fixed on her petite and delicate figure that always has me entranced.“Cut her some slack, she sees into the future. She’s one of a kind,” she says walking closer to me, trapping my gaze as she makes lazy strides to the chair I'm seated on.“I know this, doesn’t mean I can’t complain to you,” I say taking her hand as she sits on my lap with her eyes shimmering with happiness. “I take it you had a great day.”“I did, she’s faring well and healthy, her usual over-energetic self though sad that I left her,” she says her tone changing from cheerful to unhappy.“This makes you sad,” I state rather than ask caressing her cheek soothingly.With my hand on her back and hers on my chest, I dwell in the ecstasy of having her this close to me though bearing in mind that my wol

What’s next for you?” I ask her, paving a path for her to talk about the main reason she called.After spending a month with her, it’s safe to say that she is flirting to cover up her true emotions.She always chooses the avoidance route for every problem she faces.Always in a battle with herself on whether or not to trust anyone with these problems.I've noticed that each second her mind is whirring with different possibilities and situations where the information she’ll share about herself would be used against her.This psychological basis is most likely related to her childhood and she found different efficient means to barricade her true feelings no matter how badly she wanted to say them.I guess each person has their personal means and mine is the flirtatious face.“I’m not sure, maybe I’ll just pick on something random

This has to be a dream. “Hey Rei, I brought wine,” I get two loads of internal shock as I hear her words. Eyes greener than its previous dull look, hair golden blonde unlike its ruby red color, and skin having a soft unreal glow unlike its previous neutral appeal. The exact appearance of the floating figure I took a picture of. It can’t be right. It can’t be her. I thought those pics were thrash that I most likely took when I was drunk. The logic didn’t make sense but I put the main source of the pictures behind me. But here she stands, the perfect depiction of the outworldly image I captured on my phone. I had a bunch of reasons to dismiss those photos, one, Jasmine didn’t change her hair color back, two, Jasmine didn’t float, and three, Jasmine isn’t a magician. Besides, the background was appalling, everywhere was chaotic and there was no way such chaos could occur and not still be affecting the town. “Come in bitch, I missed you, you have a lot of explaining to do.” You

JASMINE’S POV“Is it alright if I do?” I ask Noah, whilst we eat at the dining table.“You just had another power surge, we don’t know what’s coming next, so I don’t think that’s a brilliant idea,” he says taking a bite out of his steak.“I understand your concern, but I don’t feel different. Nothing is happening to me and it’s been two days since the power surge,” I insist, urging him to understand how important it is that I do this.“Jasmine, can’t you wait a little while longer before going to see her?” he asks looking directly into my eyes and willing me to give in.“I’ve been away from Reina for months now and I haven’t reached out to her, besides text messages. I’m sure she is worried right now and is probably searching for me. We’ve never been apart for this long and it’s taking a toll on me, I miss her but I can’t even call her because I’m afraid that if I talk to her I might spill something about the supernatural existence and I don’t want her getting sucked into this.

LIAM’S POVThe sound of the car tires rolling against the graveled path can be heard as complete silence fills the car.Reina sits facing the window looking as though she's deep in thought and my mind wanders to the events of the past few hours.I’m still in disbelief at everything that occurred and the extent to which it affected the human realm.No one expected to see an army of undead soldiers as Sharian had called them, matching through the living realm seeking to claim souls for the underworld.To think that we believed our greatest threat which isn’t much of a threat anymore were the Darhk's who were strictly in charge of causing chaos in the supernatural realm.Our angle of training now supersedes battles against the living but also includes dead souls as our foes.Taking from the entire battle, one would think that supernaturals would be crestfallen and afraid of the new development, but it’s rather the opposite. Due to the Luna’s second power surge, each supernatural h

REINA’S POVHappiness begets pain, pain begets anger and anger begets mistakes, so I’m doing you a favor. Your unhappiness is your saving grace.My uncle’s words ring in my head as I lay my head on the desk trying to put together reasons why I should endure the heartache of being without Jasmine, who is my only family left.I try to convince myself that I’m not being delusional about the fact that she’s in danger and that there’s no way she’d up and leave me without any reason.I vehemently tell myself that she is trapped somewhere that’s why she hasn’t come back to check on me, even once, and not because she simply doesn’t care enough to.Most of all, I desperately will myself to believe that the woman I’ve known and loved all my life didn’t believe that I would be fine with her disappearing on me without any pre-warning.But of course, it’s unlike her, that’s why I have to get to the root of this issue.Something must have happened to my best friend and I’ll not rest until I

NOAH’S POV“What is she doing here?” I ask sternly, once I see Jasmine walking majestically into the heart of the battle, looking as though she is blind-sighted to all the heads that keep rolling with each second.“I’m not sure Alpha, but I can sense that the vampires are on their way here,” Brian, a werewolf answers, clawing the heads off two dead souls simultaneously.“I instructed them to stay put until I gave an order, do you think she went against this?” I ask, but he doesn’t get the chance to answer when Jasmine walks up to us, clearing the lot of dead souls in her path, severing their heads from their bodies.“Ask me directly Noah,” she says fiercely with a glare which has me wondering where the tender look she had in her eyes moments ago when she saw me, went to.“Jasmine,” I say simply, not knowing how to begin an explanation while snapping the necks of three dead souls in a second.“Save it for now, but know that later, you will explain why you didn’t want me by your s

JASMINE’S POV“I don’t think I can take any more of this,” I say to Emerald, as she braids my hair.It’s been a week since I and Noah’s last practice and since then, everything between us has taken a slower grind.I tried to convince myself for the first two days that he was still being reserved because he wanted confirmation of progress with my witch essence.So to convince him, I repeatedly did extraordinary things, some of which surprised me because I had no clue I was that capable.On one occasion, out of pure desperation to get him to see that I am not as puny as I once was, I ignited a flame and made sure it consumed everything around us leaving just both of us as the only exception from its wreckage.I controlled the fire in a manner that its flames didn’t feel uncomfortable around us, but rather warm and soothing.All he gave me was one of his breathtaking smiles that annoyingly still had an effect on me.“I believe he just wants you to work harder before pursuing anyt
