The rest of the day goes by just like the first one. Ella is still upset over Kevin rejecting her for Amelia but I do my best to distract her with questions about the pending party. It works of course because Ella goes on and on about how excited she is and how she plans on getting over Kevin by getting wasted.

Being homeschooled for over eight years did a number on me and living with Ronnie does not help much as she barely goes out. She's even more antisocial than me.

I have been trying on countless dresses and I still don't know what to wear. I know I'm putting on extra effort because I want to impress Sky.

I call my sister Jessica for fashion advice and she tells me I can't go wrong with a simple denim dress and high platform boots.

I'm brushing my hair when I h

    I'm about to go and drag Ronnie so we can go home but then I remember why I came upstairs in the first place. Sky. I still need to see him even if it's just for a little while. I'm sure he can make me forget all about those creepy sisters.I walk in the room that Phoebe mentioned was Sky's earlier. The lights are still on but Sky is out. He's lying on top of the sheets with a textbook on his chest. I suspect he fell asleep whilst studying and the thought makes me smile.I move closer to him and look at him closely. He looks so peaceful and gorgeous with his blonde hair all messy. I push it away from his face and before I can stop myself, I press my lips on his.I have zero experience with boys but I know kissing involves tongue so I put mine in his mouth. I start to feel a little movement from him but when I jerk from him I see that he's still asleep.I must have imagined the whole him kissing me back thing. I sigh

    I don't think I have ever been this excited before. I keep playing with Sky's hand in class. At first he's hesitant to participate in my playful act in class but he eventually gives in, even interlocking our fingers and showing off his amazing dimples when I kiss our joined hands. I would have never thought that just after three days of attending school I would have a boyfriend.Sky and I walk together to the cafeteria when it's lunchtime. I want to hold his hand but he declined so I decide to hold on to his arm instead."As cute as you guys are, I think it's time you guys stop." Ella jokingly tells us."Tell her that." Sky says, trying to feign annoyance. "She keeps taking my food.""No I didn't." I defend myself."Yes you did." Kevin shakes his head and Ella just laughs as Sky and I continue our playful banter.Phoebe, however

    Aurora?The endearment sounds oddly familiar but only my dad gives me nicknames and I doubt he's ever called me Aurora."Aurora? Why did you call me that?" I ask.Instead of replying me, my mysterious rescuer simply helps me to my feet. The pain from my knees distracts me and I hold onto his arm."Can you walk?" He asks."It's a little difficult." I admit, still holding on to him. To my complete astonishment, he lifts me into his arms."I will take you home." He announces as if our situation right now is the most natural thing."Ummm okay." I say because there's nothing more to say. I still haven't seen his face but I now know for a fact that his hair is quite long. My hands felt it when I hooked my hands around his neck as I was holding on to him

    I remember having dreams like this before in the past but I didn't pay much attention to them. But not my dream is all I can think about, maybe because it involves someone that I love and someone that I almost kissed earlier, the latter in a compromising position.Wait, did I just say love? I love Sky? Well I'm kind of obsessed with him and he's all I think about and the thought of anyone else having him or hurting him kills me. Oh my gosh, I'm in love with Sky!But is it even possible or normal to fall in love with someone after a few days of meeting them? Well very little about me is normal so I guess the rules don't exactly apply to me.I check the time and it's still pretty early. Sleep has evaded me and my mind won't stop playing the events that occured in my dream. It felt so real and a part of me is feeling guilty, like I actually cheated on Sky.Even my lips are swollen like the kiss actually happ

    It's been over ten minutes since Alice left the TV room so that Riley and I can begin our session but neither Riley nor I have exchanged any words other than pleasantries of course.I'm quiet because I'm trying to figure out a way to get out of the penthouse and I suspect Riley is quiet because it's been quite a while since she had a session with me."Would you rather we go to your room?" She breaks the silence.Her question is reasonable because we usually talk in my room for reasons I suspect are all calculated on her part."No." I answer quickly, the last place I want to be is my room right now."Ok." Like always my therapist doesn't argue. "How have you been?" She asks as she links her fingers together."Alright I guess." I reply a bit distracted by her appearance. She looks the same if

    I'm too weak to get away and she's way too quick so I have no choice but to watch as she kneels before me and starts stroking my hair."Careful what you wish for." She says and licks her finger which had been covered with my blood earlier."Who are you?" I manage to ask in the depth of the pain."You don't remember me?" She's still stroking my hair. "Sister that wounds me deeply." She dramatically touches her chest as if my words literally wound her."Sister?" I ask confused."Yes, now try not to struggle because it only makes me want you even more." She reaches down to grab me and her intension is clear, she wants to hurt me. Question is, how?"Please don't do this." I plead as I try to move away but it's fruitless because I'm between her and the wall."Y

    I don't know what's real and what's not but I know if I don't get help soon I'm going to sleep forever. There seems to be tension between the Rosemonts and James which is weird because they seem to have a lot in common including their obvious obsession with me."Put her down." I'm not really sure whose voice demands that but it works because James gently puts me on the ground and the sisters immediately come to me."Can you help her?" His voice gives away how worried he is.I feel someone stroking my face. "It's going to be alright sister." I think that's Amelia's voice but I'm too dizzy to be sure."What did you do to her?" Demands another voice."Nothing. It wasn't me, it was...." James doesn't get to finish his defense, he's now groaning in pain. What's going on?"Liar!" Yo

    I walk for a few minutes before hitchhiking. Thankfully the old man giving me a lift is very understanding when I tell him I don't have any money to pay him for his generosity.I offer to go with him to the penthouse so my dad can pay him but he declines, saying he's happy to help. I'm grateful that someone without ulterior motives is happy to help for once.The journey continues and I don't talk much except for the occasional answers to questions about school and why I'm out on a Sunday. Wait, Sunday?Wasn't it Friday when this whole mess occurred? I was unconscious for one full day!"Are you okay?" The man asks me.I give him a tight smile. "Yes, just anxious to get home." I add with fake cheerfulness.He doesn't seem to buy my excuse buy he doesn't ask any further questions.I thank the man once again when he leaves me

    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

  • Haunted Beasts   CHAPTER 68

    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
