I was pulled out of my room early this morning. I didn't completely hate it but I also didn't like it. The gym wasn't my thing, sleeping late, staying in bed that was perfect for Sunday. "Come, sleepy head." Jace chuckled, gripping my arm as he pulled me out of the house. "It's too cold at this time." I stared at him with annoyance, hoping it would work and he let me go back to my comfortable zone. "Get used to it. It's not different from our hometown's weather." He said over his shoulder, after finding his mate, he looked different in a good way. Happiness could be seen from afar. "But I wanna stay in my room before my classes start." I pulled my arm back. My eyes were closed. I wanted sleep to engulf me so my stubborn brother could leave me alone. He shook his head as I cracked my eye open. He pushed me toward the treadmill and pressed the button. "I hate you, Jace." I hit him. My palm landed on his elbow. "Stop being dramatic, Kidd
I curled my hand around my backpack. Rhi packed me cheese sandwiches. I denied her but mother placed them in my bag. I was nervous. I would be alone. There would be no guard if anyone thought to bully me. "Nervous?" Dad asked. "Um, a little." I glanced out as our car entered the academy. Henry pulled into the parking lot. "If you don't wanna stay here. Call your mother, she'll send someone to pick you up." "Will do." I turned to the handle. "Good luck with your project." "Thanks, my doll." I got out of the car. Sometimes I saw a strange kind of pain in his eyes. It was clear from the conversation with Mother that I wasn't cursed and I wasn't going to die. Then what was troubling my family? I know all this is related to one person, Emersyn Nelson Dawson. I need to dig for information about her. What could be a better place than this academy where she was a student. In my old school, they kept records of all students. I wasn't certain. I
My eyes roamed over all the laughing faces. There was one boy who wasn't laughing but looking at me with sympathy. He was alone at his desk. I felt bad for him more than myself. The laughing faces were in Grace's team, including vampire . I wouldn't mind counting that boy, Sisily, and professor in my team. Concern was etched on her forehead."¿Tienes un deseo de muerte?" Professor snapped. It shut all the laughing mouths. I know a few words in Spanish, but not this much. I elbowed Sisily to know what she said. She shrugged her shoulders. "Mrs. Carla Quarles is their mother. It's obvious she would resemble her. You'll read about the King and Queen in your third year. Now open page number twenty-six of your history book." Professor said in her scolding tone. I waited for anyone to question her again. I felt disappointed. There was no point in resisting and waiting for someone to question her. I grabbed the book and opened it. The second class was b
I was tired when I returned from my classes. If I removed Grace from my day. It was the best. Though, Darkice confused me more. He explained his reason later in the locker room. Though, he didn't need to. A rap came on the door and it creaked open. "Hi, Kiddo. Are you up?" Jasper asked me. I turned on my back and smiled at him. "Is Mother here to take me?" I asked. He shook his head. "Talk to her. Then, come down the stairs." He motioned at my phone resting on the desk. Prolonging my hand, I grabbed it and saw several calls and messages from my family. Exiting, I clicked on her number and hoisted it up. "Hello, Mother." "How was your first day?" The question brought many memories from today. "Rollercoaster!" I giggled. I heard her chuckle softly. "I got it. But I'm always here for you.'' " No doubt," "Well, I'm going to attend a fashion show with my beloved sister in Milan. Should I send the driver?"
He came into the class with a wide grin on his face. Sisily arched her eyebrows at me. I shrugged my shoulders. He sat on the desk behind us, "It was a phone call from my mother. She's the only good person. I love her." His smile didn't disappear. First-year students aren't allowed to keep their phones. I relaxed when I heard him. "Everyone loves their mother." I told him, matching his grin. "I don't know. I never knew the love of the parent. But I love my grandpa and Daniel. They are my family." Her smile was matching ours but I couldn't neglect the pain and sadness in her eyes. "My mother is gonna love you." I told her. She nibbled on her lower lip. "I'm nervous. Jace hasn't talked to Carla and Charles yet." "You shouldn't worry about it. They're gonna love you." My gaze was turning to the door. The professor hasn't come yet. She drew her face closer. "You ain't getting it. I'm six years older than him." I sno
There were details about everyone in the MegaHis but nothing about his dark world and the king. I had checked all my books. The door to my room opened. I didn't need to know who walked in uninvited. "Good, you're awake. Come downstairs." My mother said. I thought she was going to stay with her sister but here she was. "I'm staying at Mother's place. I'll dine with her." I told her as I turned the page. My eyes darted on the words. King Aragon was a power cold one with the power that no one could match. Abruptly, the book was yanked away from my hands and shut with a bang. "Can't you forget that, princess? Lo siento." She muttered the last words and I couldn't get it. "Why don't you leave me alone? So I could decide it for myself." I told her. "Look at me while talking to me. I am understanding… " "No, you don't understand a thing. You always want to control my life. I can't even choose my friends." "That's not true
I grabbed my backpack. I wasn't frightened to be out. It was day and no dark could be seen anywhere. It's safe in daytime I headed downstairs in the hall. My feet staggered but I gripped the railing. Six members of the alphas were seated on the couch and looking at me. "Hi, Ember. I have heard you have information about our lost friend." Carlos smiled but there was no humor in his tone. "Hi, " I replied in my meek voice. "Why don't you tell us from the beginning," Alessandro said, motioning at the couch. Did this guy just order me? My eyes lifted to my brothers. I wasn't certain he wouldn't have told them. I gulped. "Queen Reina will be back in the academy ASAP," Carlos said, offering a soft smile. I tried to smile back, but it felt like I was favoring him. "You can trust us," Edward said. I chuckled. "It seems weird hearing it from you." Carlos laughed but he pretended to cough, feeling his friend
After an hour of driving, Aidan pulled the car in front of the door. Getting out it, I punched the code that Dad had given me. The door opened. I walked around the car. There were roses, Basil, herbs, and all kinds of strong scents that could block my scent. I didn't want them to find me out. My phone was also switched off. I got in the car and he drove it inside. The door locked behind us automatically. "They might be thinking we are in love and we eloped." He chuckled. I giggled. "They're going to kill you then. Better you run away." I told him laughing. His smile dropped. "I couldn't leave you alone. That's what friends do. " He scanned the garden and pulled the car in front of the double wooden door. "If Dad has sent me here. I'm safe." I told him. "We are not from the normal world. These expensive security systems couldn't save you from the danger of living in our world. Anyone could attack you!" He was looking damn
I've been in many stores but this one is the biggest. It's quite unbelievable that they own it. I was expecting them to be here but they could not come because all the paths were blocked by the king. I'm missing them. I'm hoping to see them soon. Silver waved another dress in front of me. "This dress is too short." I shook my head, denying the dress She held for me. "That's the mission. Isn't it?" Elizabeth asked, chuckling. We came here in her pink car. It was quite unbelievable that technology was part of their lives. "Yes, but not that. There must be a class." I told them. Looking around the store. It didn't seem like I was not on the earth. "This one is perfect." Silver held the silky black long dress, thin strips, a long cut on one side of it. "Yes, perfect." Elizabeth clapped her hands. It would cover most of me. "Yea, perfect." I agreed. But I wasn't certain. 'You don't need to do that, Syn. You're not ready. I can fe
" I don't know that the full moon ceremony is two days away. " I shouted in a hurry, flipping through the pages of a magazine. "Gosh, dudes. Your designers are the best. Look at this one, Mama. It's difficult to pick one." I shoved it toward her. They were looking at me with a broad smile. "You're so adorable." Elizabeth tucked my hair. I flashed a smile. "So, what's the plan? We have a lot of things to do." I was worried about how we would do this. "Help has reached. Don't tense up. You should pick a dress for yourself." Mama suggested. "I like this bridal dress." Silver laid the magazine on the center of the table. It is a mermaid dress with a 3d floral print. She is perfect for this dress. She doesn't look much older than me. "I think you'll look more beautiful than that model." Elizabeth giggled. "We have two days to decide this," Mama said. Her soft smile didn't dimension when she drifted her eyes on her. I
He was furious that Cyril was his father, he kidnapped his mate and also threatened to force her to be his mate. Though Cyril didn't say or do anything like that, it boiled his blood. "So glad to be back home." Darius said. Wherever he slanted his gaze he could see dark land. He was wondering, his father managed to secure the land of Dark Wood when he was determined to destroy everything after his mate's death. He also wanted to burn Eamonn until he got satisfied with his cries of agony. But his mother stopped him. Yes, he was under the effect of black magic. That was why it was prohibited. It was also annoying him in anger that he could hear his father in his head clearly. He still didn't know how to properly rule the dark creatures particularly those that crawled under the dark and sucked all energy. They are called Oscuros. Fathers always trained their sons. He hated to admit it but he was curious to learn this talent.
They walked out of the room and we sat in awkward silence for a few minutes. "Don't ever say that you're not my friend." Elizabeth looked at me with watery eyes. I felt bad. "I'm sorry. I was upset with you that you won't stand with the right" "Don't jump to conclusions, Em. It hurts to hear it from you." Silver got back in her seat. Saddens cast over her beautiful face. "I thought. You would take the wrong side." "Never. I'm sorry he..." Elizabeth trailed off. "Was about to attack me." It was only Alessandro who did not come forward to save me. That means he favored him attacking him. Good to know. Who could save me and who would attack me? "Ales, also..." Silver thinned her lips, looking at the door. I was feeling blocked from him. "Do you know how this block thing works in the head?" I asked them. If he could do this, I could too. I haven't read the half-book yet. "Yes, it's quite simple. Say the word with dete
After a long shower, I peered into the room, cracking the bathroom door open. His room was a hall and the bathroom was bigger than anyone could think. Damn! He lives like the king of the world. He heaved a deep sigh as our eyes locked. A playful smile appeared on his face. 'It's dangerous, you know.' I heard him in my head. I lifted my brows and a blush crawled on my cheeks. I was wrapped in a black towel. It was bigger than my size. It was reaching above my knees. "There's no danger now. If you're forgetting." I stepped out from behind the door. I was eighteen. His eyes heated on my body as they drifted down. 'You're eighteen. No barrier between us now, until you don't want it.' My body heated hearing him clearly in my head. He strode over to me and wrapped his arm around me. His fingers brush the side of my waist. Flames flickered through me as he ran his hand up and rested it on my bare shoulder. He leaned close. He could feel my he
I heard Reina gasping next to me but she didn't stop or say a word. "I... " His deadly deep voice rang around. " Thee king Cyril Royal. I deprive you of your wolf and confiscate your power and right to be a royal. If you try to go near any shadows, it will bring you a painful death." He said the words loud and clear. His face was set into a deadly scowl. Mama sauntered toward and placed her hand on his shoulder. "Bad time is over." She said softly to him. He covered her hand with his and turned to her with a smile that could rob many hearts. They are in love even a blind man could tell this too. "How did you do this?" Dastien's jaw ticked as he stared at him gripping hate in his eyes. "I'm your father. The King. Accept it, I'm above you." Cyril said, his arm was still wrapped around her. "Above me! That's why you did all this. You kidnapped my mate. You were going to force her to be his mate." He fisted his hands, his eyes flashed amb
I straightened up, feeling uneasy. Something wasn't right. I need to find a way out of this place. I pushed myself on my feet. My eyes swiped on the tray. The food has turned dark blue. My eyes narrowed on it. Was it poisonous? How could it be? Eamonn brought it himself. His father didn't walk deep into the room. Could he poison it without even touching it? No! Something is wrong with Eamonn. It could be possible. These kings could do anything. I forwarded my steps toward the door. I couldn't stay here. If Eamonn wouldn't help me I have to find the path myself. Someone clad in dark clothes entered. I gasped in terror and took steps back. My big eyes were locked on the door. My hope shattered and fear raced through me. "What were you going to do?" He asked with a snort. His forehead creased together in anger. "Why are you angry?" I asked with my pounding heart. He was looking a little different. I stared at him. His eyes were pitch blac
She yanked, waking up from her dream. Sweat was covering her forehead, her heart was beating a little louder. Ancestors never showed untruth to her. There was guilt in her green eyes. She wanted to give a chance to everyone to stop this coming war which would only bring death and devastation to the door of millions of people. She fisted her silky dress to stop her hands from shivering. She still remembers the day when she was going to mate. The two powerful prince, one was a light wolf and the second was a dark wolf. They were like their titles. The light prince Chris was a good and kind soul. He always sees good in people, even in bad, too and in evil things too. Cyril was always strong and born to be a leader. He ruled her heart. She listened to her brain Killing her heart and decided to mate with a light wolf. He wasn't strong like his elder brother but she knew deep down that he would keep her happy in all circumstances. Chris was also popular
My thoughts banished my focus. Irked, I put the book down. Eamonn didn't return after saving me. I let myself sink in the sleep hoping to see some miracle. But I'm still here. no one has come to rescue me. I contemplated helping myself. My heart began to beat when I thought of reaching him in my head. "Darkice," I whispered. I waited but there was silence from the other side. I was also bound to the oath with Mama. I can't sit here. "Dastien," I whispered. I was getting impatient. Closing my eyes, I rested my head on the pillow. It felt as if I was actually my parents' princess after being in this room. The walls were cream shaded almost yellow, and red, a giant hearth and a queen size bed with four pools around it. The pillows were also bigger in size, red carpet. A lone tear slid down my cheek. 'Are you okay, Syn?' My eyes flew open, I jerked in a sitting position. "You have to tell me the path so I can go home. I don't like to be here. E
