2024-10-29 19:42:56Eleanor instantly felt horrible.
"I am so so sorry."He just nodded."Based off the way that you described your dad, I get that it's pretty personal for you but if ever, you need someone to talk to, I'm here for you."He said nothing.Eleanor felt so sad. Mr. Montrier died. But how? He was so full of life and energy and he wasn't even that old. Was he sick? He was her best friend at a point. The topic of death made her mind wonder and she didn't like it. She looked up at Andreas and he looked pretty lost in thought too."So, what does orange mean?"He looked down at her "what?""Orange. What does it mean?"He shot her a look and looked away.She stared up at him."Stop staring.""I will if you tell me the emotion behind the colour."He said nothing. Just kept walking."Please?" She blinked sweetly, up at him.He exhaled heatedly "Bella.""You call me Bella now but you called me Eleanor when we were at thRelated chapters

They'd been walking for a while when Eleanor suddenly stopped. She was tired of the continuous circles her mind was going in. She wanted to think of something, other than Andreas and his rigidity and the voiceless faces that were out to kill her. Heck, she didn't even have a place to stay now. She didn't want to think about it anymore. About Anna knowing everything, the librarian and the book, the body from her dream, Al of it. She would get back to her life later but could she just get a breather for a while? Will looked back at her."What's up?""Will, can I get somewhere to stay? Hotel? Lodge?"He frowned. "Well, green garden hotel's a few streets away but why?""Can we go there? Please?"He observed her for a while and nodded. They walked for 45 minutes and came to a very beautiful garden with lights strewn in the grass."This is cute.""Come on."He led her through the door up front and they arrived at the reception, where she was able to

Eleanor came out a while later and let Will guide her. He was trying to maneuver between the dancing bodies when a man about the same height as him blocked them."Hey sweet thing. Wanna dance?""Back the fuck off."He looked at Will, smirked and walked away."Asshole. Come on."Eleanor saw that his grip had loosened and when they got to the middle of the dance floor, she bolted away."Eleanor! Fuck!" Will tried to go after her but the sea of bodies made it hard. How had she gone so far, so quickly? He managed to break out of the crowd and found another small crowd a few feet away. Please no. He got closer and saw her. In the middle of the crowd. With another girl. Having a dance battle. He had to bite his lip to stop himself from bursting into laughter. She was doing everything from the shuffle, to the wackiest break dancing he'd ever seen, to the robot and ended with a split that sent the crowd screaming.It's was funny till a Nicky Minaj song cam

Eleanor got a few shaky steps in and was trying to focus on the right floor when she was spun around and picked up. She squealed as her legs went around his waist and her arms fastened around his neck. Andreas began walking."You! Let me go."He just kept walking."I don't want to go back with you." She began to squirm. Andreas held on."Let me go. I want to walk. I can walk.""I know.""Let me go. I want to go back with Will. He's nice to me.""Really?"Her head fell on his shoulder."Mm-hmm, and he listens to me.""I don't?""No. I like Will."He stopped walking. "You like Will?"She rose her head. "Yes. He's good. And he's hot."He just nodded. She frowned."What did I ever do to you, huh? You're always mad at me."She rest her forehead against his and pouted. Andreas stopped walking. Their faces were so close. Their eyes, their nose rubbed against each other's, their lips...... She was drunk."Y

Andreas lay on his back with his arms cushioning his head as he stared at the blank ceiling. Sleep eluded him and to make matters worse, all he could think about was the kiss and Eleanor's words. The kiss that currently, was causing his brain to work a mile a minute. He didn't enjoy it. He just wanted to sleep. Sleep and forget all about it. Sleep and forget about how her lips had moulded to his and even though she was drunk and had done nothing more than press her lips to his in a bid to get away, it had felt so right. He wanted to forget how they fit together, almost unbelievably. How he wanted her to do it again and again. How he was already getting attached to her, when all she did was annoy him and cause him to worry non-stop. He sighed and looked to his phone. 3:34am. Knowing sleep would be impossible to attain at his current rate of thought and mental unease, he got up and walked out of the house. After attempting to come to terms with himself and failing miserably, he return

"I'm serious Bella, you got hit.''He gently pushed her hair away from her face to expose her cheek."And your hand-" he rose it and frowned. "-i need to cover up the wound.""Did... Did Liam really get beat up?"He nodded. She groaned."I am so sorry. I think I remember some idiots coming at us. I did nothing wrong, I promise...." She frowned, " I did nothing wrong right?"He shrugged. "I have no idea. I walked into a fight. From what I gathered, a man wanted you for himself and your friend refused."She scowled. "He must be the huge guy in my head. Stupid pervert.""I agree but I also understand what incited him."She looked at him like he'd just said the earth was a big ball of fart. "What?""Did you see your ass in those pants?"Her mouth fell open in anger "Well Will told me-" a deep frown suddenly took over his face and he stiffened but she ignored him, "- but it's not like i can sell my ass on e-bay. Besides, I wore sneak

Eleanor froze. Andreas was kissing her. His lips worked hers and that feeling exploded within her, filling her to the max, causing her ears to buzz and she... She kissed him back. Andreas sucked her lower lip into his mouth and heard her let out a shuddering breath as her hands gripped his shirt. A feeling of complete wholeness engulfed Eleanor as she tilted her head to deepen the kiss. By the time he pulled back by an inch, they were both panting."Feel familiar?"He whispered.She looked up into his bright purple eyes and swallowed. Wow. It was him. It was Andreas. She had- she froze. "D-did I force myself on you last night? I'm sorry-"He smirked "Now that you know it's me," his eyes trailed down to her lips and a shudder went through her "you won't kiss anyone else?" His voice deepened.She inhaled and looked around in thought. It was him. She had gotten that feeling because of him. She suddenly paled, what did that mean? She- crap! She liked him. She re

Andreas fed Eleanor while she sat beside him, frowning and thinking. She'd occasionally mention her thoughts to him and he'd give a response of his own. Suddenly, she frowned."Why are you feeding me?"He rose a brow and continued. She ate and cast him an odd look."You're being too nice. What's the deal?"He rolled his eyes and dropped the plate on the bed. She smiled, picked it up and started feeding herself, then blurted, "I think it's all connected. All this.... The shadows after me and Carl, he led me here. I think there's a connection." He hadn't read the book but he seemed to understand. She'd finished eating when she noticed that she hadn't felt any form of pain in a while. She dashed for the bathroom and peered into the mirror. He curiously followed and saw her staring at the mirror in disbelief, with her hand raised beside her."My face. The bruise is. . . It's gone. My palm too." She whispered and slowly turned to face him. "This isn't normal."

Eleanor watched as Anna's face fell and a tense silence ensued."Louise," she whispered. "I will forever be sorry about that, but-""You might be good at your future telling but don't.... Don't try to act like my advisor."He began to walk away with Eleanor's hand held tightly in his. Eleanor was tired of being ignored. She ran here for answers and she would get them. Her killer escape-- okay maybe not killer but! Her escape scheme wouldn't be for nothing. She pulled back her hand and he stopped when they were on the last step."Andreas, I get that you two have family feud but Anna is my friend. Don't drag me into this.""Louise, let me tell her," Anna pleaded.Eleanor looked between them. "Tell me what?""I'll tell her myself." Came his stern response."Stop this! The prophesy must come to pass!"He began to clench his fists.She frowned. Prophesy?"Don't you think it would be better if I tell her now so she can get prepared? T

Andreas walked into the house at around past 6 p.m. and headed straight for the bedroom. Eleanor had banned him from leaving the office before due time, assuring him that she was okay and requesting that he focus on work. After that, she'd said nothing to him at all. Not even when he'd begged. She hadn't picked up his calls, nor had she responded to his texts. His only consolation was that her sister had gone to her. When she'd texted him an hour ago telling him that she was leaving, he'd left the office immediately. He was home a whole hour later.Traffic in New York was no joke. He walked into their bedroom, but didn't see her. Checking other rooms, he finally found her in his art room. She was standing in front of the painting of her he'd been planning to gift her with, in nothing but her bright orange lacy bra and panties. She turned to look at him and the look he saw on her face pushed sexy time to the back of his mind.He moved to stand behind her."It's very beautiful," she whi

11 Months later...."Calm down, baby."Eleanor sighed heavily. Pulling her thumb out of her mouth, she looked out of the window of the moving car. The original person who had bought the company from Maxwell Black was coming, and she had been told by Ramone that he wanted to see the lead editor and a few other writers. Her main worry was that he'd find something unsatisfactory and fire someone. Maybe her. Maybe some else. Her nerves were all over the place.She sighed noisily and licked her lips."I can't. I'm so anxious.... I think I'm going to throw up.""Again?" He asked with concern and pulled over. She bolted out of the car and bent over, heaving the nausea away. Moments later, she felt his palm rubbing her back."Are you okay? You haven't even had anything yet."She slowly nodded, feeling the nausea backing away. She'd been feeling funny for the past month, but had refused to go to a hospital. She didn't think it was serious. Just nausea, mid day dizziness, and constant tirednes

They finally made it to the theatre. Andreas marveled at the amount of people at the cinema, so late at night. Eleanor insisted on buying the tickets and to stop her from shocking him as she so vehemently threatened to, he let her. They got into the packed hall and got a seat at the back. Right before the movie started, Eleanor stood, rasping out,"I have to pee. Be right back." She kissed his cheek and ran for the bathroom. She returned four minutes later with a certain look on her face."Ciccino?" She called."Hmm?""Do you know what gaping is?"Andreas gave her a recoiling frown. "Where did you hear that?""Don't be so obvious, but look there," she discreetly pointed to his right."See that dude with the black jacket and brown hair?""The one talking to a lady?""Yeah. He said it to me."Andreas turned back to her. "How?""I was coming out of the female restroom and he was stood right in front of it. He tried to talk to me and as I was trying to avoid his hands, he said I'd look

3 months laterAndreas and Eleanor got out of the car in front of Eleanor's house in New York.Her wounds had healed somehow. They hadn't told her how, but they had thoroughly scolded her on who to save, and what the word 'enemy' meant. After that, she had not been allowed to do a lot. She could only eat, sleep, and squirm away from Andreas' glare whenever she tried to do more. Now, in her prediction, Andreas had been Anna.Faceless voice was over and done with.Somehow, Maloniah had survived.Klitanis had been released into the supernatural realm, but Maloniah and some of his demon friends had been taken into the stone. Andreas had proposed two months later. It had started off with Andreas taking her up to the roof, claiming to want to show her something. He had then sprouted huge white wings, and flown them up high."There are weirdly shaped trees that I think you would like to see."She instantly nodded, her eyes wide. Weirdly shaped trees? How weird?! He flew them to one that wa

"Fuck!" Andreas swore, gritting his teeth when his eyes met Alexandra's. Shaking the crawling pillagers off him, he sprouted wings and flying up, took two lycans with him. Crushing their hands and feet partially in anger and in a bid to end their thrashing, which just resulted in one of them biting into his thigh-which he ignored-he flew over to Adrastos.Dropping the more violent lycan and watching it's hands flail before it's skull cracked open against a rock, he turned to face Adrastos."Alexandra is here."Adrastos' eyes widened. "What!?""She's here! Who set her free?!""I don't know, my king-""Find whomever did it and bring him or her to me.""Do I get her off the battleground?"Andreas cussed. It would cause a distraction. A distraction that they couldn't afford."No. Not yet."While Adrastos shouted, annoyed at the lack of common sense possessed by a few of his kind, Andreas turned to descended. That was when he saw William.

Tension brewed within the group.They approached Eleanor's place and true to their words, in the distance, they saw figures approaching. Getting to the front of the house, they stood.Waiting.Eleanor was more impatient to see if what Esmeralda had given her for her eyes would work.Contact lenses.Esmeralda had explained to her that the eyes of the Fourth spirit held horrors unknown to men. Torture, sadness, anger, bitterness, shame, tranquil torture, hate, you name it, they were all there. They all strove for dominance in his eyes and If she looked really close, she would see them all, fighting with their hypnotizing trade marks on their backs. Looking into his eyes drew out some form of reaction. Be it fear, surprise or even curiosity, it drew out a reaction.An emotional reaction.That was what granted him access to the soul. He needed a reaction as an opening to enter and the lack of a reaction served as a barrier to his entrance. That was

Eleanor awoke to find herself in his realm. The supernaturals hadn't taken lightly to Esmeralda being in their realm. Some leaders were rather shocked, now seeing Eleanor as the ticket to somehow drawing their once peaceful creatures back from the Fourth spirit. Eleanor was cool with it... Till she found out that some planned to kill them for betraying them.She also found out that Daphne had willingly joined the Fourth spirit because Alexandra had tricked her.Also, the supernatural kingdom was carrying out a sweep to seek out betrayers and liars.So much was happening. Esmeralda- who once upon a time was Anna's friend- had told them all of the Fourth spirit's mode of attack, plans, thoughts, changes, the time that was best for him and back up."How can we even trust her!?" Shouted a rather annoying supernatural leader for literally the fiftieth time.Everyone either groaned or shot him aggravated looks, telling him to shut up.He was

It had been an added week with her in the realm of the supernaturals, and she'd found out a bunch of things.One, Everyone looked at her with starlit eyes after finding out that she was the child prophesied about, and she wasn't liking it.Two, Garion like liked her, and was pretty bummed out that she was Andreas' mate, but was happy for them, nonetheless.Three, Daphne had gone missing. She'd only found out when Anna had said it to stop her from asking any more questions, because apparently, she couldn't say exactly what she saw because it would "disrupt things".Four, Faceless voice's witches couldn't see into Andreas' realm.Five, there were portals everywhere, like the one in Lake Creek.Everywhere.She could go anywhere in this world, as long as she found the right portal. Just, what would she say if she ran into a foreign police officer who asked for something she forgot to bring along? Say a passport or an ID card? That

"Deitalyn-" Eleanor turned in the direction she'd seen Deitalyn go off in, but saw Andreas.Andreas!"Even better!" She got off the bed and rushed to him."If I accept that we're soul mates, I'm accepting to a marriage?"His brows dipped at her troubled expression."You don't want to get married?""No- I mean yes, but not right now. We still have to fight faceless voice and kick his crusty old butt!" She enthused, making wild hand gestures."I'll get injured because I'm just like that, and besides, it makes it all the more cooler, walking out of battle in leather pants and thick smoke behind you, with blood dripping down your face, and a sword or something in your hand."Andreas rose a brow."That's just how it's done, son!" She threw out.Andreas fought the urge to slap his forehead."You'll be doing stuff too. I'll have to tend to my injuries and knowing me, it'll take weeks! Knowing Anna, I'll get food shove
