“How did you become a vampire?” Earnestine asked. “It's tragic.” Dale retorted. “It's so disappointing that you can't share the experience.” “It happened to me about a hundred years ago.” Dale smiled. “Wow!” Earnestine said. She didn't know why she said that, but living for more than ten decades is amazing. “I recalled that day. My brother was after me.” Dale began as his thoughts diverted into the very day he became a vampire. There were no stars in the skies, lightning flashed while Dale looked up to the clouds before getting his gaze back to the path he was threading on. He knew that he couldn't outrun that savage creature, but he had to run, at least to protect his life. Gasping, he leaned on a tree when he didn't hear footsteps scampering into the woods. He stared at his feet before looking up to the skies. Someone sped to him, he seized his neck and began to choke him. “Do you think you can escape me?” He asked. “I know I can't, but taking the lives of innocent people is
Hayley was sauntering down the hallway, she waved at some students who were staring at her. Strands of her blonde hair were dyed black. She grinned when she saw her friend Wendy. Wendy smiled back, they embraced each other. Acting strangely was Hayley's kind of thing, so Wendy wasn't surprised about the new hair. “How was your weekend?” Wendy inquired. “It was well spent.” Hayley smiled. “My new project is coming to an end.” “Well, nobody deserves to know you or your secrets, sister.” Wendy said. Hayley raised an eyebrow. She didn't expect it from her. “I was overreacting.” Hayley clarified. They both walked into their class. “I know.” Wendy said, as she sat down, getting her attention to the teacher who had started educating them on a topic.Earnestine gulped down a glass of water with some pills. She was happy that she had gotten the freak Vampire out of her life, though Hayley was having her way. Her eyes fluttered and she looked at the door that led into the kitchen. She was
Irvine was a village where the witches of the Michael ancestry originated from, they were amongst the most powerful witches of their time. Comprehending much about the darkness because its origin was rooted there. Five insatiable witches attempted to have the power of immortality, creating a demon that would grant them their desires, but things didn't turn out as intended. This creature turned out to become an unstoppable force that consumed them permanently. Learning the truth, the dark witches of Irvine attempted to destroy the darkness, but they couldn't because it was much more powerful than they thought. They managed to imprison it in the infernal region, centuries later, Edmond Michael was born, he grew up as a boy who learned and yearned for the power of immortality. Becoming an adult, he grasped the opportunity before him and struck a deal for the return of immortality. He became a savage warlock until finally, he escaped from Irvine. The yellowish-white rays of the sun hit Ha
Two days later. Waking up, Wendy discovered that it was day, the sweet rays of the sun bathed her room in an exquisite stunning glow. She darted at the clock before she stretched and got out of the bed. Gasping, she recalled that she would be in school today and she woke up very late. Exhaling deeply as she scurried to the bathroom, she brushed her teeth, and quickly took her bath. After her warm bath, she dressed in a pair of black pants and a black top with a black hooded jacket and black spectacles. She wanted to be in black today. Stepping down the stairs with her school bag in her hands, she entered the kitchen to cook herself breakfast. Hayley walked into the school premises, she scanned through the school grounds and sports field before she entered the school building. Noticing the hallway was silent, thanks to her brutal murder, she smirked. Suddenly, she heard applause pop up in the air, as she walked down the hallway humming silently. She wondered what would make the studen
The crowd was standing at the bailey of the castle, they were about to witness the execution of a man and his wife. “Behead them.” A deep manly voice roared. “Please. I'm begging you. Don't do this. We would leave Irvine.” A girl pleaded, watching her parents as they were about to be killed. Her pleas fell on deaf ears, she fell on her knees crawling close to the guard who had raised the ax to chop off the man's head. The guard darted at who ordered him to execute the prisoners, his ax still raised. The man who ordered them to be beheaded shook his head and the guard raised down the ax chopping off the man's head. The crowd gasped. “No! Please.” The woman tied beside the man who had died pleaded. Moving strands of her messy blonde hair, her face covered with dirt, this girl who was pleading that her parents be freed crawled toward her mother, tears trickling down her eyes. She gasped when the ax separated the woman's head from her body. Whimpering, she crawled to a corner before her
Earnestine wandered down the street. She couldn't imagine that the sister she loved so much had turned into her nightmare. This was the worst thing that happened to her. First, they thought it was the rituals, but now they figured out Hayley did it on her own, and she had made up her mind to serve the darkness. She stormed into Bottles and Wine to drink her griefs away, and maybe look for someone that would help her get rid of her shattered thoughts. It was the only way to soothe her dying soul. “I'm Earnestine and I need to get drunk.” She told the male bartender who was standing close to the counter. She took a seat and bowed her head. “Ace Bobbie,” He introduced. “Here is your drink. Ma'am.” He smiled, tapping Earnestine who he thought must have fallen asleep. Earnestine smiled, as she opened the bottle and gulped down her drink. She went for the second, third, and fourth until she fell asleep on the counter. A few hours later, Earnestine opened her eyes, she noticed the whole p
“Why are you doing this? Why are you attempting to bring back your father?” “Because he deserves it. I deserve him and I won't stop. I can't stop fighting for what I deserve.” “You are making a big mistake.” Justin said, being honest. They heard the engine of a car approaching. “I don't think I am.” Hayley pushed him and he hit the oak tree. She looked at the moon and smiled, the stars that danced across the skies were somewhat happy about her success. She was happy. “Goodbye, Justin Hayder.” Hayley uttered as she pulled out a dagger and stabbed him. Justin moaned, he felt the pain of the dagger in his belly, he stared at Hayley with pity-filled eyes. “No!” Janeka said stretching her hand forward as she ran towards Justin. They used their magic to travel so fast but they were not fast enough because the deed had been done. Hayley glanced at them and she stabbed him again, they were almost close when the oak tree absorbed him, it gave off a bright gold light and they shielded their
Erin squeaked, as she crawled to the kitchen, she moved around the counter while Amadeus followed her with a dagger in his hands. She was planning to get her hands on a kitchen knife to defend herself. Her face was bruised, and she was bleeding. Amadeus had hurt her enough. She couldn't take it anymore. Her wicked uncle who murdered her brother was back, and no doubt he was here to end her. “I can hear your heartbeat so loud. You're afraid of me,” Amadeus said as he turned to the kitchen door. “I will kill you just like I killed your brother.” He chuckled following the opposite way she moved only to meet her leaning on the counter. Erin was breathing faster than she imagined, she cried silently, she crawled around the counter when she saw him stepping closer trying her best to run away from him. Her hair straightened and her eyes widened, she whimpered when she heard the continuous footsteps that signified death. “Gotchya.” Amadeus said and she yelped. She threw the knife she was ho
Earnestine's POVIt has been a glorious ride and I'm happy that he's gone for good. I mean my father. Yes, I lost the people I loved but I'm glad I was able to save those who relied on me. Giving up can never be the solution to what you want. It's determination, action, and optimism. My life has changed from good to bad and I'm happy that Ace was a very big part of that. He would always have a special part in my heart. I love him so much. I walked to the group of people that just entered bottles and wine taking their orders before I returned to the counter. I quickly came back with their orders. As I walked back to the counter with my tray, my phone beeped and I got a message from my sister that I was going to miss the Michael family's dinner. I grinned before sending her a text. “I'm on my way.” I uttered incoherently. Sabrina's POVAs I set the table for the family dinner. I smiled recalling all the memories I made with my family. They were all a source of inspiration and I understa
Irvine. The heat of the burning flames escaped to the skies pouring down on the surface of the earth setting Irvine in a glow. The chattering of humans and the chirping of the birds surrounded the whole village, it was an early morning about twenty-five years ago. A fair girl walked out of a house feeling the morning breeze caress her face, she smiled before her gaze met the blue skies. She moved strands of her hair behind her ears before she took a path that led away from the village houses to the village green where she would secretly practice her magic and get over the death of the only surviving relative she had as a family. Her mother. Sitting down on the buttress roots of a tree, she glanced at the shimmering stars before turning a page in her grimoire. Practicing magic in the morning gave her the chance to concentrate and feel the wonders of nature. “I just wish you would come back to me mother.” Valarie cried remembering the memories that they made together. She was her only
“Let me go!” Michaela roared and the door blast open, Ace was moved away, he stumbled down the hallway and fell off before landing in the living room. Michaela looked downstairs and saw him lying still, she smirked before her lips parted and she vanished. Janeka stumbled down, Sabrina followed and Danica continued defending them with flames and ice, Earnestine stood her ground, slaying these creatures with her powers. It wasn't effective and they couldn't tell why, but they had to continue fighting back until these creatures were terminated. One of the creatures flung a sword towards Janeka, she was too weak to defend herself. Her face was bruised and her arms were scraped. Danica saw it and she blasted it with their ice before a cloud of fire melted it into water. Janeka exhaled deeply.“Step away from my family.” Michaela appeared, she glared at the creatures, her eyes flashed blue and she stepped towards the creatures. “Michaela!” Sabrina said stretching her hands to reach her but
Dania was pouring them tea while they sat on the couch waiting for her to join them after she put the jug on the table.“It's been a long time since we met Sabrina.” Dania attempted a smile.“Of course. Well, I came here for a reason.” Sabrina raised an eyebrow. “What could it be?” Dania said sipping from her tea cup.“It's about a..” Jonathan said. Sabrina glared at him. “You know my mother right and you know everything she knows.” Sabrina interrupted.“Yes. Lilith is my sister.” Dania shrugged. “Great. What do you know about the relic or bracelet or whatever it is called?” Sabrina squinted. “The bracelet is what bonds Edmond with the darkness. It was hidden after he was imprisoned but I'm afraid that he must have gotten his filthy claws on it.” Dania forced a smile. “If Edmond has the relic that means there is no way we can help you or Michaela.” Danica explained. Dania had accepted the truth that Danica was Freya's doppelganger after being convinced by Sabrina. “Who is Michael
“Don't ever tell your mother that we did this!” Edmond told his daughters while staring into their eyes. They nodded in agreement before they grinned. It was Weston Hills twenty years back, some months before Edmond was imprisoned. They were sitting on the wooden floor together. Edmond could see a shooting star across the sky, it's dazzling and intriguing lights struck the earth's surface while some kids were outside staring at the magnificent glow. It was quite tempting. People believed that if you make a wish it would come to pass and children were out there making wishes. Freya's lip twitched, as she looked at her father who smiled at her. The bracelet lay in the middle of them, Freya, Janeka, Earnestine, Sabrina, and Edmond sat around it with three candles surrounding the bracelet. Little Hayley was in her father's arms. He used a needle to prick their thumb, their blood dripped on the bracelet. When he pricked Hayley's thumb, she let out a cry, but soon she stopped after Edmond be
“Jonathan. Please I need your help.” Sabrina said while on the phone, her hands were on the velvet curtains that covered the windows. She bit her lips before clasping her grip on the curtain.“What do you need my help for?” Jonathan asked. “I need you to fix my daughter.” She gritted her teeth and her eyes widened.“I'm on my way, old friend.” He replied before hanging up. Sabrina exhaled before pulling her phone to her chest. She hoped that things would become better with Jonathan around. She didn't want anything bad to happen to her daughter. It was the last thing she'd wish for, she'd give her life a hundred times for Michaela to survive. As she was leaving the living room, Janeka and Earnestine tramped into the front room roaring at each other. “All you had to do was to protect him from Hayley but you let him die.” Janeka yelled at Earnestine. “I tried,” Earnestine uttered with watery eyes, she takes hold of Janeka's arm. “Where have you been?”“I wouldn't believe this. You let
The atmosphere was gay, few people were standing close to gravestones putting their flowers close to them, and grieving due to the death of their loved ones. At the end of the cemetery were the Michael family, they were all dressed in black suits with perfectly picked flowers in their grasp, the burial had been completed some minutes ago and they were here to put their flowers on his grave.“It hurts me so much.” Earnestine uttered. What if Janeka returns? How would she cope? This question keeps repeating itself in her head. “Come on. The deed has been done. There is nothing we can do about it.” Danica soothed. Sabrina and Michaela put their flowers together before Earnestine and Danica joined them. They took in a long-lasting breath that refilled their lungs and made them feel more alive. Hearing footsteps approaching from behind them they turned only to meet Edmond, Lorene, and the psycho vampire Iago stepping towards his grave. “What are you doing here?” Sabrina implored with a sc
“Hey! We are going to get out here Lorene. You're going to have that life you always wanted with Edmond. He loves you, and all of us.” Justin said reassuringly. Her arms were folded and she excluded herself from the group that was sitting in a corner of the void. Justin stood beside her before they gazed at each other. “There is no way we are leaving this prison. Don't make me feel that everything will be alright.” Lorene told Justin. “Everything will be ok. Just be tolerant.” Justin said taking her arms while they strode back to the group.Present Day.Hayley brought out the steak from the oak tree of the infernal region. She squirmed with it before she laughed conceitedly, and walked closer to Justin who was tied to a seat. They were in an old abandoned house, with spiders hanging loose from the ceiling, broken wares, cracked walls, and shattered windows. Justin's eyes widened as he struggled to set himself free.“Don't fight. We used magic.” “I'm so sorry.” Valarie told him. “I
Hearing a knock on the door, she reached for the handle when she stepped into the front room, opening the door, her gaze caught the unfamiliar figure who started fidgeting with her. “Who are you looking for?” Danica asked. “Freya.” Hayley muttered. Danica raised an eyebrow, her hand still on the door handle. How was it possible? She couldn't believe her eyes. Perhaps, Earnestine took the risk of raising all her sisters back to life or she must have left the world of the living to the infernal region for too long. “I'm not Freya. I'm Danica. Danica Wilson.”“Nice to meet you.” She stuttered.“Come in.” Danica smiled. “What year is this?” Hayley asked petrified as she stepped into the house. A lot of things had changed. How long was she gone? Turning to Danica who was behind her, she scowled. “Freya don't joke with me. Are you back?” Hayley asked. “I told you I'm not Freya, I'm guessing you are Hayley Michael. The bitch sister. Just so you know, Sabrina would crush your head once sh
