I saw my life flashed before my very own eyes. One minute he was aiming for my throat and the next minutes he was getting thrown back against my reading table so powerfully that it broke into halves with a crumbling sound.

Looking back up, I was relived to see Logan standing in the same spot my attacker had been just a moment ago as he stood shirtless and in a protective stance with his large blade in hand.

Seeing Logan’s unexpected appearance in the room, my attacker didn’t stay down for long from the impact before he was back on its feet, moving Just as swiftly before throwing himself at Logan who was obviously standing in his way of getting to me.

Even as a human, Logan was nothing but a beast as he kicked and slice the mask man, leaving absolutely no room for counterattack from his own end.

I have never witness a supernatural fight before and sitting so up close and personal has its little disadvantage. I was practically in the way as my room was barely enough to contain the ragin

    Logan led me through the long corridor, down a hidden stairs as we went deeper into a much darker route before going through a specific door.I could barely see in the darkness as I was led further into the dark hall, the only thing in the air was the sound of feet hitting the hard concrete floor.Logan gave me a small light after I bumped into him a few times so I could see in the darkness. I felt as though I was trapped in this space, my breath starting to come out short.I can’t help but imagine being held behind this bars of cages. The thought alone is enough to make me want to turn back but I had gone too far to turn back now.As we approached the cell further, my nostrils was immediately hit by the most wretch of smell. I couldn’t even bring myself to imagine what the sources was.We walked further and Logan stopped in front of the one I assumed to belong to lady vena. I stepped closer to the steel cell bar trying to get a glimpse of the woman lying on the small dirty form on th

    “I needed to see her and speak to her about what happened. I felt she could tell me the truth”“What truth, Iris. Where you went is no place for you. You shouldn’t have gone there” He barked.“I wasn’t alone. Logan was with me” I explained calmly hoping it would be enough to make him see that I wasn’t in danger when I went there but instead he huffed and threw a punishing look at the door as though he wanted to go hand one to Logan since he was just outside the door.“Still doesn’t matter. He wasn’t permitted to take you down there” prince said with a sigh and I continued.“He didn’t want to so I sort of threatened him” I admitted with quiet voice and he arched a brow at me.“I know I was wrong but I spoke to Lady Vena about what happened and i want you to please set her free” I said with determination.“What? Have you gone mad?” He croaked in disbelief as he stared my startled form down with narrowed eyes.“Did you forget she tried to kill you several times already?” Prince questione

  • IRIS: The Human Hybrid   Off Limit

    A week has gone by since that day and I was back in my own room once again after successfully convincing the Prince to let me sleep in my room of course.Most of the broken items were fixed and new ones were brought in to replace the completely broken ones.This morning, I had rolled out of bed with a sigh. I went to bed last night but couldn’t sleep. I kept hearing strange screams down the hallway.Even with my necklace, my hearing ability was still heighten to an abnormal degree and so far, throughout last night, it felt as though I couldn’t close my eyes without listening to someone being severally tortured.Try as hard as I may, I couldn’t put my ears to the ground without catching a wind of that painful grunt and hissing in pain.I sighed once again, pushing the thought out of my mind as I brushed my hair into a neat bun before walking into the bathroom.After I had finished dressing up, I heard a knock at the door and I went to the door and unlocked it, sliding the bolt out.Agn

    I returned back to my room and decided to have a shower then nap a little. When I awoke again, I decided to go visit Prince in his room later that night.I got to his door and knocked and then waited for response. I’m not sure if he was in or not but o was hopeful he was.Before I could knock again, the door opened and prince stood in the door way. He really had not expected me as he stood with confusion in his eyes, staring back at me.He was completely shirtless and displaying a bit of muscle. His hair was also ruffled as my eyes trailed him further.He smiled , leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed.“You miss me already?” He asked teasingly and I felt my cheek heat up at his comment.“Can I come in?”“Sure” He laughed softly and stepped out of the door way to allow me into his room.I walked in further before turning around to face him.“I’m sorry, I didn’t realized you were about to go to bed already” my eyes found their way back to his stomach and I swallowed.“is

    I took a step towards him and stopped, not sure if helping him was a really good idea. I mean, if he was kept here then it must be for a reason and letting him free might get me into trouble, that’s if I’m not already in trouble of course.“I can’t” I said, shaking my head from side to side.“Please” He half demanded and plead before another groan tore through his clenched teeth.My heart breaks at the sound of his anguish. So much so that, I just wanted to rip the chains from him and set him free once and for all as I stood staring at his skin getting deeply burned.“please” He let out once more and just lay still without moving and I gasped.For a moment there, I just stood wondering what just happened.Was he dead?Oh my!I jolted forward, forgetting my initial hesitation that I had before as I ran to him, closing the distance between us quickly. I fell to my knees beside where he lay on the floor.“Mr…prince…um..wake up” I called out as I reached out and cup his face covered in

    I tried to keep my focus on his face but couldn’t. I was still feeling lightheaded and completely out of focus.Prince Dan whose skin has completely healed and gone back to normal at this point had grasped my face in his hand and pulled me to peer into his blazing eyes before frowning.“You really won tell me your secret?”I struggled to move out of his grasped but he held me tighter, drawing out little whimper from my mouth.The door burst open and he was violently knocked off me and in his place was now Logan as he stood in a protective stance over me.“stay away from her” He warned dangerously.“And who are you?” Prince Dan asked with a bored expression.Logan’s fingers gripped his knife even more before replying.“I'm her bodyguard and I say you stay away from her”“let me guess, my brother actually put you for to this?” Prince Dan said with a chuckle before his expression turned serious again.“Well, you don’t get to tell me what to do or how to do it” He snarled and moved with s

    Prince walked over and sat beside me on the bed. He still looked upset as he continued to stare at the bite wound on my shoulder even though only a pink scar was all that was left behind.I reached out my hand and grasp a handful of his shirt as I stare deep into his eyes.“I’m sorry I set him free. When I saw him in those horrible shackles and he begged me to set him free, I couldn’t leave him behind even though I knew I was wrong for even being there. I got too curious and now, I’m sorry” I said quietly and expected him to be upset at me for my foolishness.Instead he let out a sigh before grasping my hand and gave it a little squeeze.“No need to be sorry, Iris. You have a good heart and my brother saw that and took advantage of it but it’s my fault for not telling you about him sooner. If I had, then you wouldn’t have fallen for his tricks of playing the victim just so you could set him free”“Now what is going to happen? Will I be punished for setting him free” I asked curiously

    Prince and I walked into the breakfast room and found the king already seated. Prince Dan sat from the King’s left and Prince and I bow respectfully to the king before he pulled out a chair for me to seat on and I thanked him and settled gracefully on it.I glanced at his direction once before looking away. He wasn’t officially dressed but he looked well dressed with his hair all gel to the back, making his cheek bone even more sharp.I could feel his intense gaze on me the moment we walked in and sat down at the table but I refused to look at him. Instead, I focus my attention on my hands clasped on top my legs.I felt Prince Otis hand grasped mine from under the table and I turned to look at him briefly with a small smile and he smiled back. King Roman served himself which was permission for each of us to serve ourselves as well.Slowly, conversation started up across the table as if nothing had happened last night. I let out a breath I was obviously holding in and continued to eat

    Epilogue I pulled up my hair in a neat bun and glanced at my reflection one last time before I began to hurry around determinedly in search of son Nelson. I needed to get ready so I tricked him into hiding so I could search for him and so far, he is still in hiding and now I have to pretend to search him out even though I already know where he was. I waited a moment, listening for his breathing from around the room. “Found you!” I cried out laughing when as I revealed his small form hiding under the table, the skirt doing a really poor job in hiding him completely. Instead of trying to run, I pulled the child into my grasps in an affectionate hug and began to tickle him, causing him to laugh and giggle. “Let play again” Nelson requested sweetly, lifting his chin up to look at me pleadingly, his eyes, one grey and one crimson. His vampire side was far more suppressed so that he didn’t hold fangs and can walk under the sun without a protective ring like I did. Nelson was thankfull

  • IRIS: The Human Hybrid   The End

    Since my family arrived, I had spent most of my time with them, trying to catch up with things that had happened at home after I was taken. Turns out most of this villagers felt betrayed by what my parent did while most still sympathized with them, after all, they also know what it feels like to loose their children to become slaves.While we talked about all that had happened behind me, we also talked about my life here in the palace and all that had transpired this past few months before their arrival. The welcoming ball was scheduled for two days after my family’s arrival, mostly to give them time to rest and adjust to the new environment and surprisingly, my parent adapted rather quickly.The next night was a bit of stress as u was being fitted for my dress. A gold dress with jewel of diamonds that Otis had gifted to me specially for the occasion.Once I was ready, I thanked my maids and then stepped out into the hallway. Henry was there, standing before my room diligently. I fl

    It has been a week since Prince Otis became the king. He has been so busy with palace affairs that I barely ever saw him. So, after eating breakfast alone that morning, I decided to go see him in his study and just as I had imagined, he has a desk filled with paper work.At my presence, he seem to pause for a moment as he beckon on me to go to him. I hurried to where he sat behind his desk and he pulled me into his arms, a relief sigh escaping my mouth quietly.When we pulled a little bit apart, he reached out a hand to my still flat stomach and rub gently on it.“How are you and the baby?”I smiled, “We are doing good”“I’m sorry I couldn’t join you for breakfast”He said and I nodded before I lean in and brush his lips with mine before leaning away.I shrugged before replying, “I know you have work, your Majesty” I said teasingly and he chuckled before pulling me completely to sit on his laps.“Your family is coming” he stated simply and I hesitated, wondering if he was honest.“My

    I couldn’t even sleep as planned, My mind was replaying everything that had happened. I kept wondering what my mother looked like at least I know her name was Katherine maybe prince can tell me a little bit about them.I made my way into the bathroom and filled the bathtub before shrugging out of my cloth and slipped inside. I spent my time washing up in the bath before returning to the bedroom to change into something else and into bed once again.I couldn’t lie still as I rolled over on the bed instead of trying to go outside and meet the sun as it was still high up in the sky. More hours passed by before I heard the door crack open and Prince walked in. I sat up sharply, my heart hanging in my throat.When the prince hesitated by the door, I quickly got out of bed and began to approach him carefully. I took a step closer and stood before him as I looked into his eyes. They held something familiar. Something I had seen before but before I could speak, he beat me to it and spoke up f

    “Unbind and bring her out, it’s time to go” The King ordered and one of the guard unlock the shackles around my feet binding me to the chair as well as my hands and I let out a relief sigh before I was pulled back on my feet.Still feeling weak, I crumbled to the floor before I felt two strong pair of hands grip my arms on either side and lifted me back on my feet to follow king Roman out the door.With two guards holding me on both side with enough force to cause bruises, I wondered how strong did they think a vampire actually was. On my way down the halls, I spotted a few people I recognized. Agnes was among them as they a good staring in horror as they saw us pass by.My heart raced in my chest as I looked for the Prince but something in my heart felt that he was far away from me as I was on my own. I felt afraid when I thought of the Prince, my chest feeling tight and breathless.I was escorted out of the building and into the carriage wapiti outside with the king following from b

    King Roman took a step closer and then reached out a hand to grasp my chin but I pushed away before he could but that didn’t stop him as she grabbed my face roughly before turning me enough to get a better look at my neck.“You have healed just fine. Not bad at all” he said before his hands dropped from my face and I let out a groan.“So are you going to tell him what my kind ever did to you or not? Since you had every single one of them killed then it must be pretty bad I suppose?”“Hmm” he said simply before turning away.“You have always been curious so I’m going to tell you a story" king Roman said.“During my young days, I became friends with a vampire king, we would do things together, go places together and even fight our bullies together. We were so inseparable that my parents and his tried everything they could to break us but it didn't work”“We grew up to the age of marriage and got married to our respective spouses and even had children.

    Iris POVMy eyes widen as they start to advanced further with their blades towards us and I dropped to my knees in response before they'd reach me.Just as I did, Prince quickly transformed into a large beast diving over me and attacking the guards coming towards me. I looked back up to see bloodshed around me, guards screamed at a single bite and prince was large enough to tower over them as he stood protectively over me.Heads and limbs were torn off from their bodies and their blows were bouncing off the Prince fur as he paws slide between them, none of them his match.I wanted to stand up, to run away but I couldn’t move and if I could, I wouldn’t be able to leave Prince behind. Suddenly, a much powerful roar in the room was heard and I dove to the ground wincing as I heard the new beast collided into Prince wolf and then I heard a high pitched cry as Prince was hit with the attack painfully.“Prince” I cried out, lifting my self at last from the ground and towards Prince collapse

    (Otis POV)There an intense heaviness in my chest as I stood beside Lady Avril at the center of the arena surrounded by guests and of course, my father the king who was sitting at his spot, his cold eyes not so cold at the moment but glistering with what I could only term as joy.I bet this moment has been in his imagination longer than anything he has ever thought of. Everyone else has a look of fulfilled expectations on their faces.Not once did I imagined that my life would turn out like this. I don't want to marry the woman standing beside me but I had no choice. I wanted to stop the wedding but couldn't. I can’t even look at the face of the woman is who is about to be mated to me. I know she was happy and full of smiles and didn't even care about my expression nor feelings. She just wanted to be called my wife and be the next Queen Luna. My eyes searched around the hall, hoping to see Iris but she was nowhere in sight. When I got out of bed this morning, she was still asleep.

    Iris POV. With slouched posture and head lowered, she continued to stared at the floor quietly. Her hands fidgeting with the hem of her dress even more. From the frantic beating of her heart, I could tell she was nervous about something. “Agnes? Do you really know where I can get my bracelet back? If you do please let me know. I really need to get it back” I asked again before lifting her chin up to stare into her eyes and in them I saw guilt, so much guilt and regret as tears had start to pool in them before spilling across her cheeks. "I'm so sorry, Iris. Please forgive me” She cried, holding on to my hands but I couldn’t say a word as I was pretty much taken back by her unexpected reaction and she continued. “I didn’t mean to take it” she said quietly, her voice barely a whisper. I didn’t even know how to react. I knew she was the only one that had access to the room but I didn’t imagine she had taken it. What could have been her reason? “Why did you take it?
