Terror consumed everyone’s system when Latina stood high and proud in the middle of an inferno. The robe she wore was burnt into ciders, leaving her bare naked but it seemed not to harm her. Her scarlet eyes were glowing as if there were balls of fire inside them. The strands of her lengthy black hair were coated in the flame too. A shinning red stone on her chest began to break into pieces with the tremendous heat, turning it to dust, sparkling with fire. She was dazzling; with her goddess-like features, anyone would think she was one which fell from grace and was being penalized with the eternal flame. Even the witches and the men in the witch village who rushed in to check the commotion quivered in fear. If they didn’t know about the death of the legendary flame fairy a hundred years ago, looking at Latina’s appearance would made them believe that she was the fairy who had been long gone instead of the blood queen. The idea made them tremble more in panic, after
When the heat burns and the cold freezes, even a soul won’t stand to exist. If Delia, the snow guardian, and Agatha, the flame fairy understood how their strength worked, maybe, they could have eased the suffering of the soul trapped in the curse.“Well, who would have thought that you’ll turn into an ugly hag. The oh-so-great ‘Ice Fairy’, the wonderful ‘Snow guardian’, hah! In the end, you suffered more losses than I have,” Agatha commented while inside Latina’s body. She flipped Latina’s hair like it was hers. “Latina grown to be a fine lady, having her body for a while made me reminisce the time when I was in my youthful days.”The room’s temperature rapidly dropped, turning almost the entire room into ice. Almost but not everything since the part where Latina’s body was comfortably sitting remained unaffected.“Oh! I miss those
Latina opened her eyes. It was dark. She felt the familiar emotion swelling inside her. Fear. Everything was black, no colors, no lights, it was fearsome and empty.‘Where am I?’ she asked herself. She tried to speak but words wouldn’t come out, she could only think what she wished to say.A freezing hot air touched her. It seeped through directly to her soul like she no longer had her flesh where she usually felt the pain first. The heat and the cold were inflicting her, simultaneously. It was painful, extremely painful. Latina wanted to cry in misery but then again, nothing came out from her mouth. She shifted her hands around, striving to grab something to hold on. Sadly, there was none in nothingness.The last thing she remembered was when they were heading to the village chief’s mansion. After that, she doesn’t recall anything.‘Hmp! I always remind you what to do but you kept ignoring me!’Latina&rsqu
The inside of the sacred cave was dark and cold and empty. As the people outside began to chant a spell in order to seal the only entrance and exit of the cave, a song of despair could be heard. The voice of the singer was mellow and soft, empathizing with the family of three who was locked inside.The woman with long, black, shiny hair had a pretty face and soft skin. Her slender body was covered by a red piece of cloth and nothing else. There were no scars left on her skin but traces of blood could be seen. Her voice was sweet and warm, calling out the girl’s name in the man’s embrace, “Latina,” she spoke and, with loving scarlet eyes, she kissed the girl’s forehead.The man with a jet-black, straight hair, few strands covering his face had a rather similar face as the woman beside him. A man’s version to be precise and even others could easily tell that they’re siblings. Some may even think that they were twins. He had a fin
The once dark cave turned bright, letting the sunshine in. An entrance appeared before Latina, she was rendered speechless.“Your prince came to save you,” the red flame fairy said, floating in the remaining dark corner. “Go and live your life the way you wanted it to be. Leave this place and find your colors.”Latina turned her gaze to the man who appeared. “Why did you came?”“Because you’re here,” Sebastian answered. He took off his coat and used it to cover the lady’s naked body then, offered his hand. “Do you want to go with me? I’ll show you the world.”His words etched on Latina’s heart and mind. She never thought of getting out of the cave nor to continue living. But Sebastian changed her mind by simply offering his hand. Latina nodded and accepted the offer.Sebastian carried her out of the cave and gently put her down inside the carriage. They traveled for
The confusion in Latina’s face was swept away. Looking at the man’s face lightened by the sun rays, as if focused by the spotlight, she knew he was her savior. She stretched her lips in an awkward way, trying to copy what she actually visualized since she saw that warm and sweet curl on his lips. Latina thought it was fascinating and the man deserved to be addressed in the same way.“Heh.” A small sound escaped her mouth when she forced her lips to curve the way she wanted it to be while showing her teeth. She looked silly.“Here,” the man extended his hand which she gladly accepted. He tugged her up from the ground.Latina beamed, foolishly. She initially wanted to smile kindly but her muscles were stiff. “Sebastian,” she mumbled his name. With her brows creased, she tried to comprehend something out of that nine-letter word. The sound of his name was familiar that she could feel a twinge in her chest and a hint o
After a month of staying in Sebastian’s mansion, Latina felt more protected. Her wandering thoughts were easily settled by the man’s kind words, giving her no chance to worry about little things every single day thus she could sleep with ease at night, peacefully, as she knew she could trust him. She learned to do household chores and tasted a lot of nice foods and drinks. Sebastian would always give her what she needed under one condition; she had to stay inside and never go outside unless he said so. Latina submissively obliged. She doesn’t have anywhere else to go anyway.The relationship between the two grew stronger, deeper, and more passionate. As a lady, Latina would be lying if she would think Sebastian was not a good catch. The man almost had everything. His well-defined facial features and toned body can make the ladies swoon over him. Well, if he doesn’t scowl right on their faces, would be better. Having an enormous place for himself was ex
The wind blew stronger, pushing the window open, letting the cold breeze inside the mansion. The creaking sound of the trees outside could be heard. It sounded dangerous as anytime the tree branches may fall. Although some were already lying on the ground, uprooted. It was unusual for a storm to come in the middle of summer and it mostly scared the people in the kingdom but Latina felt secured in Sebastian’s arms that she paid no mind on trivial matters. The important thing for her was to be with Sebastian all night, cuddling with him. His kisses could wiped away all her worries, which included her sanity.Latina raised her hands above her head in complete surrender. Sebastian pulled away from the kiss to admire her once again. She watched him watch her body. Her cheeks reddened when he sketched her naked frame with his passionate gaze, swooning over her. Sebastian lifted her chin with his gentle fingers, drawing her lower lip downwards with his thumb with
There was a heavy storm going on outside and there was a localized downpour inside Latina’s womb. While the raindrops damped the soil, his juices watered her pot. Latina rolled her eyes when the warm liquid filled her and after some time, she felt it flowing out of her entrance, like the waves in the sea, receding back and forth to the shore.“Let’s stay like this,” Sebastian muttered, letting his thing remain inside her. Latina felt the pulsing of his manhood in her walls while it kept on squeezing itself. She heard him groan in an erotic way as he rested his head on her chest. Even her body shivered in satisfaction. It was all worth it, the pain she had when he stretched her virgin hole turned into a unique pleasure that she knew she would never feel unless Sebastian penetrates her again.“Hmm…” she hummed. Her body was be
In the Northern part of the Vacil Empire, there was a specific region where the temperature never rises despite season changing. The cold was dreadfully unbearable. It was known as the snow paradise for the snow never stop falling throughout the year but for few, it was accurate to be called the hell’s gate. There was a legend about hundreds of years ago, about the blood demon king who emerged from the snowy ground in the north. His skin was as pale as snow while his hair was the opposite, as it was black like the starless midnight sky. With eyes as clear as the frozen ice, he looked ethereal. Walking in the ice desert, barefooted, his crimson blood tarnished the pure white surface. It was said that he rose from hell to create a world where demons, humans, and other races coexist. He wandered to different lands with nothing but his cursed blood which possessed great power. In his journey, he met people whom he shared his b
The nightmare was over. Thanks to the holy celestials who stopped the war that almost caused the empire's destruction. They distributed healing potions to those who were injured and with the gods' blessings, they were able to revive those who were killed. But the said revival of the dead was only for humans who were involved in the dispute between the vampires and beasts. Ezekiel, the messenger of the gods and goddesses, had to wipe the memories of the bloody war from the human’s mind, to protect the peace. He believed that if humans knew nothing about the existence of other races among them, as long as the blood and beast tribe avoid causing conflicts to one another that will harm the mortals, they could live their daily lives without fear.Ezekiel was meticulous when doing his job, it was almost a complete perfection like nothing happened if not for the bloodstains that could be seen here and there. It made the
The elders were almost done subjugating the beasts intruders in the capital. The potion that Claudia made helped them a lot, although, the number of casualties was more than what they expected. Those who have the ability to heal others started to spread out to help. One person came to their mind when they found out a lot of survivors but were severely injured. Rupert Millavo. The only person that could possibly treat all the injured at that moment, it should be him. Aside from learning medicine, he was known for treating patients with a hundred percent chance of living. After he captured the main threat and the mastermind behind the beasts attack, Cisto went to the hospital to check on the doctor. He was expecting Rupert to be tending on the patient and couldn't believe when he actually saw him fighting against an alpha."Oh, this redhead was here all along then?" Cisto muttered when he recognized Rupert's opponent. They wer
The blue sky was suddenly covered by thick, humongous clouds. Even the proud sun left no trace of its light. Thunders roared above as flashes of lightning crossed in the dark sky. There was no sign of rain or a storm coming. It was more like a bad omen befallen on earth.“It’s a bad idea to leave the cave,” Seth said while stopping Latina from leaving. After she gave the baby a name, she started to get panicky.“No, we should leave immediately. I could hear them coming. It’s dangerous if they find out about Victoria,” Latina argued. Hugging the baby in her arms, she walked out of the cave. The wind was strong, but she made sure that her baby was safe.“Who are they? If you want to leave then we should head back to the lord’s mansion,” the knight suggested.
It was midday. The bright sunlight reached the interior of the cave through the small cracks above. The thick fog earlier in the dawn was gone. The sparrows in the wild started to hunt for insects to eat after several minutes of singing. Life went on outside the cave while a new life was expected to bloom inside. On the contrary, countless victims lose their lives in Buscia City. The war was still going forward and between the sharp fangs of death, humans perished one after another.Seth was breathing loudly while leaning his back on the cave wall. He fell asleep after scooping Latina from the ground when she slumped down while crying. He had no idea why the lady was suddenly emotional. Comforting wasn’t his forte. Afraid to say the wrong thing that might worsen her mood, he offered his shoulder to leaned on, and she cried silently until she was tired. Latina dozed off. She was sound asleep when she felt a stinging pai
Chaos. A word that best described the bloody scene. Men and women, children, and old, they cried, begged, and desperately prayed to be spared. The once lively capital turned into a lake of blood. Corpses were everywhere and it kept increasing. Some were intact while most of them were ripped, smashed, and with missing parts. The stench smell of blood was all over the place.The special soldier led by Tyler rampaged. They killed anyone they see breathing. Pulled their guts out from their body, sliced their head and limbs off without blinking an eye. “Go get them all!” The blue alpha ordered. He was sitting on a bench while watching those around him plead for mercy. ‘Too bad… if I couldn’t kill the strongest then I’ll eradicate the weak first,’ he thought. His leisure time ended when he was pinned down on the ground. He felt a strong force pulling him from below.
The sun was at its highest peak. Coming towards the southern borders of the Vacil empire, hordes of raging beasts was approaching. Led by their respective alphas, the beast warriors lined up in an open field, approximately ten kilometers away from the empire, beyond the mountain ranges, waiting for the signal to attack. While the secret soldiers of the Wyslien kingdom have already begun their sneak attacks earlier than planned. Composed of the best fighters from different packs, under the direct command of the blue alpha, Tyler, they started their mission: To eliminate vampires as much as possible.For the citizens of the empire, specifically in Buscia city, it was yet another day to live. Without knowing about the upcoming disaster, people started their daily activities. The vendors opened their stalls first thing in the morning, hoping for a bountiful sell for the day. Store owners and other large establishments had their
In the vast night sky, the faint light coming from the stars could be seen. They twinkled alternately every second as they worshiped the serenity of the moon. It was a night to remember for those who were still awake and had witnessed the rare sight. Nah, not because of the magnificent moon and the stars above. Since on that particular night, they weren’t only the jewels of the sky that sparkled. The distance between the sky and the earth seemed to shortened when bolts of colorful lights were swiftly chasing each other in the air. They weren’t falling stars nor meteors which could only land on their specified direction unless they exploded before hitting the ground, or they split into countless fragments and caused a massive ray of lights everywhere. These unique bolts of lights were only the excess waste of energy, turning to flammable dust and resulting to colorful fire when colliding with the kindling temperature in the air due to the strong reaction of the earth&rsqu
The lady in the armor led the way out to the forest with the confused knight in tow. The trees and the mystical heavy air was familiar. Seth stopped on his track and inhaled a lungful air. His brows frowned when he came into one conclusion: The forest was exactly the same as the previous one where he was conversing with the witch.“Damn witch! She tricked me,” he muttered, lifting his head to follow the lady in front. “W-what?” the knight panicked when the lady aimed her sword to him, ready to pierce his eye any minute. ‘What’s wrong with her?’ he asked himself.The lady who called herself ‘Kiera’ glared at him. “I’m used to society’s label but I won’t accept it if someone like you whom we fight for referring to us as witches.” She watched him carefully, waiting for his next move and
