In Love with a Human CHAPTER 28: Oh Boy, This is a Mess
VidaVida’s Apartment, Planet EarthHer thoughts betrayed her as she stared at the ceiling of her apartment, there was a disturbance in her very existence as she tried her best to find sleep. But it would not just come to her. She lay in her bed, blankly trying to under what was going on. Her guest, a man that came straight out of her dreams, was on the sofa close by. A coffee table was set up to make a mark of separation between them.Vida thrashed around in bed as her thoughts lingered, sleep would not come as she fought against the voices that were biting at her mind. It was as if regret suddenly decided to show up and start biting at her being as she tried to comprehend what was going on. Was it naivety that made her trust this person that was lying and sleeping on the sofa that she had set up a while ago. This stranger who had somehow landed in the midst of a bustling New York City was now in her own apartment, sleeping peacefully.“Stupid!” Vida’s thoughts screamed at her, “Jus
In Love with a Human CHAPTER 29: The Prince is Now a Waiter?
ColterVida’s Apartment, New York CityHe had watched them mutter to themselves without a second thought, thinking that this was part of the Earth's culture.They whispered to themselves and stared at him from time to time but Colter paid it no mind as he stood there while they spoke about him.At once, Tessa straightened herself up and looked at him directly with a small smile on her face, Colter returned the gaze with his nerves slightly going up but he was not going to show them.“So, Colter.” Tessa announced, “Vida and I were talking…”‘Well obviously…” Colter’s brain thought, “You were whispering like two children right now.”“If you want to stay here” Tessa continued, “You’ll have to earn your keep.”“Earn my keep?” Colter repeated dumbly and Tessa grinned.“You will have to help Vida pay for this apartment, so you’ll need to take a job and earn money”The concept of working was not alien to the young prince, he had seen people toil and sweat just to get paid at the end of day,
In Love with a Human CHAPTER 30: A Night Walk
ColterNew York CityHis Ecanus powers had helped him immensely in his first day of work, his skills and strengths made him easily react to the orders of the bar’s patrons. His non-human anatomy made the bar’s productivity rise twice the usual. He carried a large number of orders and was able to set them before the customer’s got impatient.Colter’s quickness, capability of focusing his essence into boosting his body and his overall looks took the hearts of many customers. There were more than usual at Burn’s today, and it was all because of him.Tessa was shooting him dirty glances at the additional work they had to face, while Vida tried to apologetically make up for the increase in their workload.Even the gossip of a hot, sexy, young and handsome waiter starting his job at Burn’s made an impact as there were more patrons than usual. Vida and Tessa had to deal with less lecherous drunks while at the same time had to endure the words these new people said to the prince who was merel
In Love with a Human CHAPTER 31: Don't Easily Trust Someone
King MalikKingdom of Howard“That stubborn, arrogant shithead!” Malik roared, slamming down his fists in the table. The other Ecanus that had gathered around him flinched at the king’s recently shortened temper. They had tried to contact the missing prince but he just would not answer their telekinetic calls. “That idiot…” the king continued, exasperated at the mess that his younger son had left the kingdom in. “If he only had self-control, if he could have practiced a bit more of patience and majesty, the kingdom would not be in this awful situation.”“Deity Flora” Malik said calmly, the oracle was standing by, watching them with serene eyes. “What should I do…?” his voice sounded weak and pathetic, as if the past few weeks had drained him of all his resolve.“In order for things to go as foreseen” the deity told him quietly, her eyes showed no pity or remorse at the king’s sorry state, “I must not interfere. I would give you my apologies, King Malik but it seems at the moment, I w
In Love with a Human CHAPTER 32: Lusts and Desires
King DyronKingdom of HavoccThe king watched as his vultures, shedding their Ecanus disguises returned to him. The smile on his face told the story of a predator finally spotting its prey. He greeted them with a warm smile as they perched on the railings of the balcony.“My sweetlings…” he muttered, stroking them each on the head, while giving them small kisses, “You must be famished. Feast!”He pointed at multiple carcasses of deer that were lying on the floor, the vultures jumped at it immediately devouring flesh and separating the meat from the bones until there was nothing left.Dyron watched this unfold with an evil smile, “Like my vultures on a carcass, the Kingdom of Havocc will pick at the bones of whatever remains of the Kingdom of Howard.”He was tempted to attack the kingdom now, with Colter missing, but the news of another one of their greatest soldiers leaving made him want it even more. Vergil was apparently departing as well to look for the missing prince.Dyron saliva

VidaOutside Burn’s, New York CityIt had been a tiring shift, but work was over nonetheless. Vida and Tessa walked out of Burn’s, their tiredness showing on their faces but they were smiling because they finally had free time. But Colter had been missing for a while now, he had left work earlier to do something and Peter just smiled and let him do so because he was bringing in more customers than ever.“Where’d the gorgeous, homeless man go?” Tessa asked Vida as they walked towards the bus stop, Vida frowned at Tessa’s comments and smacked her in the arm.“He has a name you know!” she said protectively and Tessa rolled her eyes.“Alright, alright, where did Colter the gorgeous, homeless man go? He doesn’t even have a phone or any kind of device that we can reach him with.” “He said he was going to do something” Vida pouted with a shrug, already missing Colter’s warming presence around her.“Well, hopefully he comes around soon and he’s not passed out at another busy street” Tessa jo

ELOISADuchess' tea room, Kingdom of Howard"Your Grace, I brought in some lovely daffodils from the shop in the village. They would look lovely in your sunroom."Eloisa, who was gazing at the Palace from the window, looked at what her handmaid June, was carrying in her hand."Those look lovely. Thank you, June." Eloisa sighed as she returned her eyes to the window.June proceeded to the dresser table by the window and started to arrange the newly-bought daffodils in an empty vase. She noted how the Duchess seemed to be forlorn.She cleared her throat and spoke cheerily, "It's a lovely day out, miss. Would you want to go to the village and try out some hats? I heard Bastille's has some new collections coming in today."Eloisa sighed. "No, I'd rather stay inside." She was still reeling from what happened the other night at the Palace. Although her cheek had recovered from the assault, Gian's words were the ones that still resonated with her.“Get dressed and leave. Now."Suffice to say
In Love with a Human CHAPTER 35: Gian's Betrayal
ELOISAPrunee, Kingdom of HowardEloisa could not stop thinking about Gian. Despite June's words of warning, the prince was affecting her in an unhealthy way. She could not eat nor sleep and she would be staring off into space most of the time.The prince had consumed her entire being. With how things ended the last time they were together, Eloisa could not accept how they parted ways. Especially how Gian discarded her like a used napkin.It is true that Gian was a notorious ladies' man. The Duchess had been standing for quite some time in front of Pruneé. She hesitated to go inside because Gian might not be there. But she had a strong feeling that he would be there."Here goes nothing," she gave out a breath she did not know she was holding and entered the bar.Pruneé was crowded with patrons tonight. Conversations carried over one another and the room was filled with a light hazy smoke of tobacco. But she had no trouble finding Gian among the crowd. He was sitting alone on one of t

Now they had time alone.Vida’s nails buried themselves into Colter’s back, minding his now healing injuries, as Colter put his lips on her breast, he suckled on it like a hungry infant hungering for its mother’s milk. Vida moaned in ecstasy as Colter worked on her body, she involuntarily found herself wrapping her bare legs against his waist, locking him in and not wanting him to stop ever.“I love you, Vida” Colter said, rising from her body and then started biting on her neck gently, Vida shuddered and her nails moved across Colter’s back as her nerves were shot to the point of oversensitivity. They had bot

Zoom! Pow! We crossed some mystical portal! That’s right up Vida’s fantasy novel shit! I can’t believe it. I thought I was going to wake up wasted in a bar somewhere! Goddamn it was real, I have these weird powers that can see visions and shit!”“Tessa!” Vida interrupted, giggling as Tessa had begun to pick up steam with her words, she simply leaned on Colter’s arms and felt the moment, he had chosen to live with her on this Earth and it thrilled her to no end.“Don’t interrupt me girl, I was on the verge over there!

ColterThe Great Hall, Kingdom of Howard"Brother,"Colter approached his brother on the balcony of the Great Hall. Gian was staring off into the distance, watching the sunset on the horizon. Days had passed since the war against Havocc took place. The Kingdom of Howard has been slowly rebuilding itself from the wounds of the attack. What was left of the Royal Guards helped the citizens rebuild their homes and establishments until they had a sense of their lives back. "Colter," Gian said, nodding.He settled in to stand beside his brother and looked at what was once a thriving capital below them. Colter knew that the entire Kingdom would be back to its former glory in no time."What an experience," Gian said. "All my life, I have always thought Howard to be untouchable, a haven, that no harm would ever befall it. Seeing it being razed to the ground is something I will never forget.""I could say the same," Colter said."But we're getting through it. Just look at how fast the Ecanus
In Love with a Human CHAPTER 69: Peace At Last
King MalikThe Kingdom of HowardThe capital has been devastated greatly, they had suffered many losses and everyone had a somber demeanor. Houses were shattered, the gates were splintered, there was still blood on some parts of the pavement and the royal palace was almost in ruins. The bodies of the fallen Ecanus were being transported for burial, with the highest honors they could be given. Those who were still able to move helped out, finding people trapped in the debris of their homes, giving out food and just giving words of affection towards those who were severely saddened by the recent events.King Malik stood in front of them all, his wounds were still undressed, the blood all over him had dried up and gave him such a scary look, but he wanted to address all of the people before he took care of himself. He wanted to give him hope, and thus, casting the spell once more that would allow the people of his kingdom to hear him clearly:“It is with a heavy heart that I announce the

ColterThe Royal Palace, Kingdom of Howard“Then let us have a duel to the death!” Dyron roared in fury as Colter slowly approached his foe, he could notice the king’s dark magic twist all over his body, “I shall send you straight into the pits of the underworld, and soon afterwards, everyone in this failure of a kingdom”Colter’s powers were at their peak now, three of the four elements worked in tandem as he leapt forward the elemental sword in his hand glowing with a bright light that radiated hope. He swung down as he descended on his enemy, but he was met with resistance. The sword of light clashed against the sword made of pure darkness.Dyron’s wounds from Vergil’s earlier attack burst with blood as he struggled, “I shall have this kingdom and no one will stop me” Colter just stared blankly at Dyron’s claims, they clashed swords once more, this time with blinding speed as each combatant gave their whole strength into it. Sparks of fire flew around their battle area, along with

ColterThe Royal Palace, Kingdom of HowardIn the blink of an eye, Colter stood before King Dyron, his hand was firmly grasping the king of darkness’ neck, “Have I ruined your plans, King of Darkness?” Colter taunted the struggling enemy in his hand, Dyron squirmed and tried to fight back, but the prince’s grip was too strong.“What are you doing, son?!” Dyron gasped, trying to regulate his breathing as Colter slowly tried to crush his larynx, “I am your father, do not give in to the lies these filthy Ecanus have fed you!”Colter tightened his grip in anger as he felt Dyron’s magic try to corrupt him again, but the prince’s aura swirled around his senses in protection, this time anticipating the attack.“Your lies bear power no longer, King Dyron” Colter said in an angry whisper as he slammed the king down into the ground.Hope swirled in the hearts of every Ecanus and human in the room, Colter was slightly weakened by the ordeal, but they were glad that he had returned to his normal

VidaThe Royal Palace, Kingdom of HowardShe ran towards Colter, slipping out of Tessa’s grasp who only screamed in horror as her friend put herself in mortal peril.“Vida” she screamed but Vida did not mind her, she had moved herself through the debris, stepping aside the blood and fire, and managed to reach Colter who instantly hesitated when their eyes locked.“Please remember me” Vida thought fervently as Colter’s crimson eyes found her amber ones, he let out a ragged breath that was filled with panic as his arms were still motioned upwards, wanting to stab down at his fallen brother.As Colter hesitated, Vida found her opportunity in his hesitation and grabbed Colter, locking him in a tight embrace.“Colter!” she cried out, tears spilling uncontrollably as she felt the heat of his anger burning inside him, his heart was also beating fast, “It’s me Vida.

King Malik HowardThe Royal Palace, Kingdom of Howard“Colter is under the imperium-class spell; it is a magical poison that seeps through every corner of his body. “ Malik announced finally recognizing its effects, he remembered how often it was used in battles before Gian and Colter’s time, “There is one weakness that Dyron has not accounted for.”Dyron glared at the king and flung another black ball of magic at him, and he dodged it cleanly. “Your ambition will be your downfall, old friend” Malik taunted the furious Dyron this time, finally putting it all together. Colter running away. Vida coming over to help and Tessa assisting. It had been in front of him all this time, and finally, a way to save the lives that could still be saved.“The poison indeed courses through every part of their body, except for one” Malik announced, “It could never breach the heart. The mark of Ecanus protects the heart from being fully poisoned, this is why Colter fluctuates in and out of control whi
