I wake up before Ronnie does, maybe because her arms are crushing me. I try to wriggle my way out of her tight grasp. She moans in her sleep but thankfully doesn't wake up.

I quickly make my way to the bathroom. After I'm done washing my face I catch a glimpse of my reflection in the mirror and again I can't look away.

I'm not sure if it's a good idea to make any sort of contact with Aurora. She got me in trouble last and I'm not entirely pleased with her at the moment. Because of her, my family thinks I'm having a mental breakdown, again! If she wasn't already dead I would kill her for the pain she caused them but that's not really an option and even if it was, I wouldn't be able to kill anyone. I wouldn't be able to kill the girl who looks exactly like me, the girl who after last night, I have become attached to in more ways than one.

Maybe the fondness for the angel turned demon is due to resemblance in our looks or m

    I eye the phone for about twenty minutes, debating whether or not I should call Sky once again. I had initially called him with the intention of inviting him to dinner but I also wanted to vent to my boyfriend about what went down between my father and I. The fact that he brushed me off so easily left me with no choice but to talk about one of those things. To make things worse, our conversation didn't do anything to improve my mood. Infact I feel like he's pulling away from me. I don't know if it's paranoia or not but something felt off about our conversation. Sky sounded distracted on the phone and I have watched enough romcoms to know that it's never a good sign when the guy is distracted. I don't want to think the worst but my mind won't stop thinking that something is very wrong. I want to call him, to ask if he's really at home and not with someone else but I decide against it. It's probably best not to smoth

    Im in a very dark place and I don't like it at all. It's quiet, too quiet. Am I finally dead or is this one of those horrible dreams? "You couldn't handle the noise." Her voice is the only sound I can hear in this dark moment. "Humans, they are such a nuisance." "It didn't bother you?" I ask, as far as I know what happens to me happens to her but she seems fine. "I have bigger problems." "And what's that?" "I need to feed." She tells me. "Apparently having a body comes with a appetite." "But you don't have a body." I remind her sternly, "This is my body." I'm trying my best not to be horrified because I know exactly what demons feed on. "Then I guess we both need to feed." She shrugs it off like it's not a big deal but I'm freaking out. Me? Feed on another hu

    I don't know what it is I'm smelling but it's an addictive scent. The kind like dirt right after a rainy day, and you just want to go outside and eat the dirt. Except it isn't raining and I definitely don't have the urge to eat dirt. One of Kevin's acquaintances must have been recently involved in a fight because his lip is cut. It isn't entirely noticeable but I can see tiny specs of blood on his lip. I watch the movement of his lips as he talks and I can think about is how much I want to bite that lip. My thoughts scare me. I have never been a violent person, except of course when I'm defending Sky. But right now it has nothing to do with Sky, it's Aurora, she's hungry and she's using me to get to her prey. I wish I can say that I want to fight the urge to pounce on Daniel, well I'm guessing that's his name. But I want him beneath me, helpless and desperate as I feed on him. I can already picture it happening in

    As Cassandra unbuttons the last of her shirt buttons, my heart is beating so fast that I'm sure Cassandra and her sisters can hear it. Aurora's need and excitement is radiating throughout my whole body. I'm trembling with a feeling that resembles desire. Watching Cassandra remove half her clothing in preparation to satisfy Aurora's hunger has me shivering and breathing hard. "We only have a few minutes." Nikolina says. "Let her out." She orders softly, clearly referring to Aurora. I don't wait for her to say it twice or rather Aurora doesn't. Before I can get my hands on her, our eyes meet and I'm briefly Heaven again. For a few seconds I contemplate fighting Aurora instead of giving into her dark desires. But I know going against her will not be easy and since she's inside of me, there's no ignoring any of her needs. _Its okay. You can do this_ &n

    He's in my arms, his head buried in my neck and my lips pressed against his hot skin. We have been in the lab for over twenty minutes now our make up make out session is partly over, mostly due to Sky's reluctance to have sex on school premises. But we have yet to let go of each other. Personally I'm still reeling from everything that just happened and only in his arms do I find the solace that I'm desperately craving. We are both silent, both of us still too caught up in our intimate moment to think about anything else. Today, like most days in my life, has been eventful and tiring. Just thinking about it makes my head spin. Being with Sky helps put my mind at ease but sometimes not even the presence of the love of my life helps with the chaos that seems to be my life. Like when Aurora is in control. Lately Aurora has been making it impossible for me to ignore her presence inside of me and everytime the demon takes over my body it's jus

    Damnit! Aurora is gone again. I hate how she comes and goes as she pleases. And how does she do that anyway, it's my body, shouldn't I be in charge of her comings and goings? And again she has left me with a ton of questions, as usual. I'm very confused but I have to admit this is the new normal for me. I think I'm getting used to it. What I'm not getting used to, however, is how Aurora speaks of the so called Mistress Rosemont. She makes me doubt everything that the Rosemont sisters told me. For instance the fact that she called the woman who raised her evil is something I can't get out of my mind. I don't want to doubt the Rosemont sisters because that further complicate my life and it would mean that they lied to me about everything, including the true nature of what I truly am. But I can't help but think that there's some truth in what Aurora says. If all she did was choose James th

    Dinner surprisingly goes smoothly. Cassandra is back to her usual herself. Watching her now carefree and chatting endlessly with Ronnie, you would never think that she was just crying in my arms just minutes earlier. My whole family is quite taken by the Rosemont sisters even my dad. I don't blame them because the three sisters look so normal that I briefly wonder if it's from all these years of practice or if they were always good at concealing the nature of their true identity. It then hits me that it's no longer accurate to refer to the Rosemont sisters as 'them' cause like it or not I'm a part of whatever twisted nature they are as well. Maybe I should take lessons on how to act 'normal' from them. They did help me with the whole hearing people's loud thoughts thing. And considering the fact that the nonhuman with a demon inside of me, I could learn a lot from them. When Am

    I giggle as he chases after me in the field of lilies. I continue to laugh when he tackles me onto the soft ground. He lies on top of me and I lift my hand to push his blond curls away his face. Sky'shair is awfully long and even though I like it, sometimesit almost covers his piercing blue eyes. "I love your eyes." I tell him. "I love you." He says before leaning in to kiss me. I hook my hands around his neck andkiss him back with the same need and passion. Suddenly the atmosphere around us has completely changed. It's no longer sunny and calm but now it's windy and the sun has completely disappeared. Sky starts to help me to my feet as I wrap my arms around myself because of the now cold weather. "Let's get inside." Sky says but before he can grab my hand, the wind gets stronger and it separates us before we can actually hold each other. &nbs

    They arrive back to their world of Xnandria and the master is barely alive. She worries that he's going to bleed to death and die. It's a known fact that the wounds of the wings never heal, especially if the creature who tore them out is a powerful angel who's also half angel. "Brothers , sisters!" She cries for help as she carries the master into his temple. "Achilles!" She calls for her sister. "Master is dying!" They get into the temple and it's unusually empty with the exception of Zacharie, Hasiah and Achilles who's sitting in the master's chair by the way. Zacharie and Hasiah stand beside, making no attempt to come help help her with the master. "So the girl managed to remove his wings, I hear the wounds never heal." Achilles dares to say. Sarrtina senses a shift in her sister's loyalty. "Achilles what are you doing?" "My brothers and I have been talking a

    The sun's getting real low, it's finally over, Soliaire is out of my life now. I managed to defeat him and I managed to stay alive. It's the end of all of this and finally I can breathe easily. I can finally move on from this chapter of my life. Now I can be with Sky and we can get married. "Heaven," Sky finally approaches me. "Are you okay?" He asks but I don't reply him I just grab him and pull him in for a tight hug. "It's finally over, we can be together peacefully and we can finally get married." I tell him as I hold on tightly. "Are you sure you are okay?" He's still pretty shaken up with everything that's just happened. "Yes yes, I'm fine." I try to convince him. "Are you ok though, you are not hurt?" I briefly let him go so I can look at him to see for myself that he is indeed ok. "Yes I'm fine but you don't look fine." I frown. "What do y

    I am not afraid anymore. I'm going to fight and I'm going to stay alive, for Sky and for myself. If something were to happen to me, it would kill him just as much as it kills me and I can't do that to him. He deserves to be happy and after I win this fight I'm going to devote the rest of my life to making him happy. Soliaire looks at home on Alice's couch, I suppose the color does go with his dark demeanor. While he looks relaxed and calm on the couch, Sarrtina, Achilles and the other two men I believe to be Zacharie and Hasiah, look like their are ready for a fight. It goes without saying that Zaralina and I are quite numbered. It's the five of them against the two of us. And if we are going to get out of this one alive, I have to believe that the reason Soliaire pulled out the big guns is because he fears that I'm stronger than him and can actually fight him. Zaralina won't let me walk further into the room

    It takes me about two hours to explain everything going on to Sky. We have moved to the bed, deciding it's best to talk about this while sitting down, or in this case lying down. "So if you are mistress, what does that make me, master?" He asks teasingly. I lean up on my elbow to look at him, wondering just how he can be amused at a time like this. I swat his arm. "What is wrong with you?" I ask trying to sound serious but I can't contain my laughter. He laughs too, grabbing me and pulling me on top of me. "Clearly missing so much school is messing with my brain." "Yeah, clearly." I mock him, my fingers messing with his hair. "Goes to show how much I love you. Before you, I had never skipped school but now I do it so naturally. You are so lucky I love you." Only Sky can be funny and sweet at the same time. I start to kissing him, passionately on t

    "Mistress!" Her voice is frantic as she shakes me. "Wake up!" My eyes snap open only to see that I'm in my room, safe and sound. Zaralina is hovering over me and if I'm not mistaken, she actually looks worried. I sit up, momentarily touching my back to see if my wings are still intact. The whole thing just felt so real that I need confirmation that I'm alright and that nothing actually happened. "Do not worry, they are still there." Zaralina says, clearly reading my mind. Feeling embarrassed by the fact that she's caught me weirdly touching my back, I immediately stop. "I just wanted to check." I tell her awkwardly, I'm still not a friendly basis. "I understand." She says as she sits besides me on my bed. "You had the vision, didn't you?" I nod. "Yes, he killed me." "Soliaire can be vicious when his power is threatened

    Send your dreams where nobody hides Give your tears to the tide No time No time It's official, Wait is now my new favorite song. It's calming and distracting enough. It makes me feel like I'm in a different world, one where I can go to sleep and actually dream peacefully. But unfortunately I'm not in that world, I'm in this one, this never ending nightmare that is my life. I have to say, if it weren't for my unconditional love for Sky, I would save Soliaire the trouble and just kill myself because this is seriously getting out of hand. I even feel like a prisoner in my own house. With all these intruders invading my house in the middle of the night, I'm starting to feel out of place here. Amelia removes my earphones. "You are not a prisoner." She assures me. "We just want to keep you safe."

    I knew Sky would take the news badly but I didn't think he would take it this bad. While he seems to have calmed down now, resting on top of me with his head on my chest and his hands wrapped around my waist, it took me a while to get him to stop crying.Up until today I had never seen him this emotional and it's breaking my heart to see that I have caused him so much pain. I didn't do it on purpose but I still hurt him none the less."What are you thinking about?" He asks me, after moments of silence."You." I say simply whilest I play with his blonde locks."What is your favourite song?" I suddenly blurt out.Sky lifts his head from my stomach. "What?" He's surprised by my question."I just realized that I'm going to marry you and I don't really know everything about you, including your favourite song.""Don't you think we have more i

    Sky tightly grips my hand, like he's afraid I'm going to run away or something. In all honesty I'm also scared, if the Rosemont sisters came all this way to talk, it must be very important and it their world it could also mean very dangerous. They didn't even take the time to go and change out of their uniforms. "What is it?" I ask, trying to ignore my heart hammering against my rib cage. As usual Amelia is the first to speak up. "I'm sorry Heaven but we have some bad news." "What happened?" I don't know if I can handle anymore bad news. "It's James....." "He's dead, I know." I interrupt her, relieved that it's not something serious. I mean him dying is serious, especially if it's part of some elaborate plan for a reunion on Aurora's part, but it's at least something I already knew. "You know?" Amelia is surprised. "Yes." I

    It feels like it's been a while since I have had this kind of normalcy, the kind where we all sit together at lunch break, Ella's endless chatter and Kevin drooling over Amelia. Gosh, I even missed Phoebe though I would prefer it if she stopped thinking about my boyfriend so much, but she's finally giving up on trying to get with him especially now that she knows we are engaged. Well everyone knows and we have Ella to thank for that. Ella won't stop talking about mine and Sky's upcoming wedding. It should be irritating but it's not. I guess the fact that she's excited about it makes me happy, it's makes it feel like an actual wedding and not a solution to so many of my problems. "I have a question." Kevin says, looking at both Sky and I. "Are you guys really serious about getting married?" He asks and for a moment I think he's joking. "Because Evie you don't have to marry him just because you are pregnant. I know a guy who can help you o
