I thank the committee for giving me this award and all who voted for me. I thank the cast and crew of 'A Forbidden Fairytale', you really made me happy during those days. I thank very specially, director Cicero, for being a great mentor and adviser and inspiration to me and to all. And lastly and most importantly, I thank the love of my life" Gasps erupted. "For always being there and being the best support. No one but the both of us know just how much we've been through and it means the world to me that you're still here with me, even at the end." She smiled at Julien. Getting off the stage, the award for best supporting male and female actors were awarded to two of the supporting characters in their film. She felt proud, so proud of Julien. "It's funny how it's just me who doesn't see the resemblance between you both." She whispered to Lorenzo as they returned to their seat. "Funny for me too as I also didn't see the resemblance." He answered, looking around. "What?" She q
Raphaela screamed again as the baby forcefully pushed its way out. In a few seconds, the baby slid into Lydia's waiting hands. "A boy!" Lydia announced excitedly, cutting the placenta. Lorenzo's eyes snapped open, his eyes immediately finding his child. "Thank you." he whispered. "It's time." was her gentle reply. He moved his eyes to his wife. Her eyes were shut and her breathing was quiet. "Raphaela." he called softly, palming her cheek. Her eyes fluttered open and a gentle smile followed at the sight of him. "You did it." "The Moon goddess did." He replied, smiling also. Lydia handed their child to her. Raphaela's eyes instantly filled with tears. "My boy, my own child." Lorenzo tried hard not to be too emotional as he stared at the beautiful miracle of his son. "My boy." Raphaela whimpered, sobs escaping her lips. Lorenzo took the infant from her and held it for a few moments, feeling the fragile and vulnerable creature in his hands. Small eyes stared up at
Director Cicero brought out the keys to his apartment. He still felt a bit shaky and weak from the terrifying incident that had just taken place at the award ceremony. It had been strange and terrifying even for his old bones. Plus immediately after the ceremony ended, he couldn't find Julien Hugo and Raphaela anymore. It was as if they had vanished into thin air.What was going on with them?He shut the door behind him, switching on the lights. He ventured for the living room and froze at the sight in front of him.Raphaela, Julien Hugo and three other strangers were sitted in his living room.Lorenzo immediately rose."Director Cicero." He greeted politely."I was looking for you, Julien. What's going on?" He came closer, now noticing the child in Raphaela's arms and in that of the young girl. He also noticed the three awards both Lorenzo and Raphaela had received, resting comfortably on a drawer, "what's happening?""We need your help." Raphaela immediately spoke, rising."What..."
"Sir, you have a meeting by 10am tomorrow with the investors and a conference by 12pm with the board of directors. The Wallace family have indicated interest in the new deal and request that you meet for lunch to discuss the terms at you convenient time. Also..." "Cancel them all." "Young master? But the Wallace family..." "I don't repeat myself." Young master Zed's secretary could only watch helplessly as he entered his latest Rolls Royce and was driven away. Zed's gaze was sharp and cold as he made various phone calls on his way back home but inside him, he was nervous. He had to make sure everything was perfect. He couldn't afford any less. "Welcome, Master Zed." He nodded at the butler who opened the car door for him and stepped out. "Your parents have asked that you join them for dinner." The butler informed, following behind him into the large sophisticated Archibald's Villa. "Is the fourth Miss back?" "Not yet, master Zed." He sighed tiredly as he took his first step
"Who would have guessed that the popular beautiful talented actress was actually a flesh eating animal?"Raphaela froze."A werewolf." An amused mocking laughter followed, "a freaking werewolf."The laughing stopped, silence followed but Raphaela didn't move.Her weakness and sudden sickness felt a little strange at first but now..."Did you poison me?"Another laugh followed."When I found out, I didn't know what to do but as the experimental person I am, I decided to test a little theory ... If the effect of wolfsbane on a wolf is true."Raphaela's grip on the couch tightened, her back ramrod straight."You don't need to get angry, I figured you might wolf out on me if I confronted you and so I decided to protect myself. Every human understands the need for a little self defense."Raphaela closed her eyes and counted to ten; slowly... slowly... just like Lorenzo had thought her. The dizziness was becoming hard t
Telegraph news broadcast "The investigation on actor Sheng's murder continues and the police has asked everyone to take note of their safety and security while they hunt down this heartless killer. The investigation has still not produced any viable result and the investigation does not think the killer is out in a killing spree but rather that actor Sheng had a personal grudge with him/her. The police has tagged the killer 'the clawed assassin' due to the claw marks found on actor Sheng. The telegraph team still advices everyone to be careful. Related news: more fans still troop in their numbers to honor their beloved actor Sheng and various celebrities have offered their condolences to his family. The date of his burial has been..." The TV went black. Bones crack, nails turn claws, fur springs out of flesh, two feet turn four. A loud angry ferocious howl goes forth through the forest before a larg
"Alpha, the pack's in a riot! Cato and Sixtus are manipulating them to revolt against you. They are currently marching here. They've sworn to kill you!"Lorenzo's eyes darkened but he stayed calm, forcing his angry wolf to stay calm too. He could hear the angry howls and noise of his pack members. They were close.How ungrateful were they? He had protected them and scared off intending enemies for the past half decade since he took over the role of Alpha from his father. They never lacked anything, not food, not wears, not money, not resources, nothing! But then a few sleazy bags chants rubbish to them and they turn against him and even threaten to kill him!His wolf stirred uncomfortably, whimpering in pain.It wasn't hard for him to end them all but they were his pack and he had a tight bond with them and though he hated to admit it, he had a slight fondness for the pack he had grown up in.His wolf was in pain at the betrayal and unfortunately t
Cato and Sixtus did intend to capture Raphaela like Lorenzo suspected but as usual, they always underestimated the strength of a she wolf. Even in her sick state, the two wolf assasins were dead in seconds before the guards Antonio dispatched arrived. They could only dispose off the bodies.She lay in bed, reading a book, seemingly calm and well in contrast to the dying feeling she felt on the inside. The pack doctor was doing her best but the wolfsbane she had taken in was fatal. It was a surprise she only suffered from weakness and hallucinations.And it frustrated her that all her hallucinations were about a certain man.Who suddenly appeared.She sniffed in blood."Who did you kill this time?"Lorenzo hadn't gone to his room after dealing with his pack members but to Raphaela, all bloody and angry."Didn't you feel it?" He sat by her bedside, his head dropping unto her lap."A little. I'm currently too weak to feel or hear

Lydia glanced at the clock and then back at Valentina, worry etched on her face. Antonio noticed her movement and he too became even more panicked. Time was running out. "Try harder, Val, try harder. I'm here, okay? I'm here, I'll always be here." He encouraged, his tone emotional. "It's so painful!" She cried, her eyes fluttering open. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." He cleaned the sweat off her face as she pushed again, her cries bouncing off the walls. At the third push, the tiny creature slipped out smoothly into Lydia's waiting hands. "A girl!" Lydia announced with glee, cutting off the placenta. Valentina collapsed on the bed, drained of all energy. Lydia brought her child to her while Antonio hovered over them with a proud pleased smile on. "You did it, thank you so much." He kissed her cheek as she received their child into her arms. "She's so beautiful." Valentina mumbled, tears rolling down her cheeks, "so beautiful." Antonio thought the same too and for the next few secon
The editing and finalizing of 'A Forbidden Fairytale' took another two months to complete and then it was ready for the world to see. Director Cicero was excited.He didn't release the fifteen episodes film immediately, rather he teased the public first.The first day, he paid so that old news on the infamous duo came to light. News began trending about them and the whole world wanted to know what happened to them."My goodness. Did everyone just forget them?""I don't get. Why does it seem like they just vanished?""So strange! Did the world forget them?""I find it really strange that I forgot them for all these months. I'm so sorry Raphien, I'm your die hard fan!""Oh, that homosexual actress.""Raphaela! I love her so much, she's so mysterious! What happened to her?""Are they dead?""Ha! I always knew they'd eventually die out, they were so proud. Why are people talking about them again by the way? ^_^.""Why are people making such bad comments? She is a beautiful soul. Her movies
Two months later... "I said search every nook and cranny of this office! It has to be somewhere! How can you be so incompetent!? A simple task! One simple task! And you blow it!" Director Cicero was furious. He glowered at his secretary who was frantically searching through the stacks of files in the cramped cupboards for one single letter she had carelessly misplaced. "That letter is worth millions, you hear!? That letter will fetch me millions! Look for it!" Files landed on the floor in haste, cupboards collapsed on top of the other. The room was a mess. As she searched, terrified, a large green folder landed on the floor right at director Cicero's pacing feet. He glared at it and kicked it off but his curiosity was strangely piqued. He stared at the green folder for a while before picking it off the floor. He set it on his desk and opened it. The first file he brought out was a signed contract between him and... Julien Hugo! Something in his memory snapped and everything came
It was true. No one had ever seen the Invisibles. The Invisibles could only be communicated with at the turbulent ocean that bordered the forests on the east. There was an invisible barrier through which the infamous female automated voice they used spoke to whomever they wished. He himself had only been there once, after he became Alpha. Now that he thought of it, how did the Highbreeds know they were erased from the Invisibles records? "What are you thinking?" she asked when his look became even more frustrated. "Exactly what you're thinking." He sighed, "making us non existent." "We have been cut off from all connections, all our deals have been rejected. No one accepts to offer us help." She said to him. "You all don't deserve this." He muttered, embittered. She leaned down, placing her head on his shoulder, looking into his eyes through the mirror. They could both hear the sound of foliage being crushed and the controlled breathing of the sneaking invaders as they trie
Vince knocked on the front door of Victoria's house. It swung open two seconds later. Victoria's grandmother, a tall lanky woman who looked far too young for her age, stared down at him."Vincenzo." She smiled cheerily, "come on in."He stepped into the cosy home that smelt of spice and pancakes."We are just having breakfast" She informed him, leading him to the small eating table at the far end of the living room, "please join us.""Thank you but I just came to offer my thanks" he refused politely, "If you and Victoria hadn't saved me, I would be dead."She chuckled, "You can save your thanks for my grand daughter, she was the one who brought you in but I don't think she would be down at the moment."He understood."I apologize, I'll take my leave." He bowed slightly in respect and headed back for the door.He paused, his hand on the knob."Please do tell her I visited and that I said hi."He quickly left the house. He decided to take the opposite way of the pack house. He had to t
