The night seemed so holy without blemish as cool and smooth breeze creeped into the room, soothing my skin with every sense of humility.
The dark sky was aglow with bright stars in their graceful positions, illuminating the earth, awake and sleepless.
I was about to sleep but I realised I needed to bring in my clothings from the line outside.
I quickly got out of my bed, went out, brought all in, and went back inside.
Lying on my bed again, a strange noise suddenly struck the side of my fairly opened window, so heavily, leaving me appalled as I jerked hard like it was right inside my room.
I stood firm, my gaze fixed through the window as I tried to wipe my eyes to see clearly what was outside. My mind kept processing everything…
Everything...
My view was blurry, snowlike, but with a heavy and thick soot forming like a dark cloud outside. I paused, trying to figure out what it was. My eyes kept blinking in shock.
"Run Irisha.. run.. it's coming… oh no.. it's moving so fast.. run….!!!" Mella's voice peeped through, as I felt caught up between two worlds; confusion and total devastation.
Talking about Mella, she's one sweet girl who's always there to keep me warm each time I needed it. She's courageous too, but not as the elder brother, and so smart as well.
Suddenly, I could hear a loud bang like the heavy footsteps of a dragon as a creature approached, accompanied by a cymbal-like sound from the fallen steel tray above, beside my bed, so loud and sharp that the empty woods resonated with their echoes.
Fear and tension gripped my nerves, my feet began to wobble, my pupils dilated, my fingers twitched in panic that I could feel the hairs on my body stand on ends, flushed with goosebumps, more like I was going to die the next minute.
My head spinned.
"Did you just hear it when Mella said run… Irisha..? Run…!!!" Jayla echoed from the other end, hastily beckoning on me to leave.
Jayla was Mella's elder brother, so tough and fearless. He was one guy who was mostly there to protect the family. One guy I've always admired his courage, even till date. There was no two him.
I could sense something was off, but I just couldn't place my hands on what exactly.
Seeing the entire premises become so hostile to everyone, including me, I jerked as I felt a tough hand pull me to its side.
My heart leaped!
"Oh my God…!" I cried out, gently closing my eyes not to see what or who that was.
All I could ever imagine was that, that was actually going to be the end of me. The feeling was so intense.
I relinquished.
"Just kill me, at least I know that if I die here and now, nobody would have to bother me about anything again, and I won't have to think and worry of what to eat anymore, unlike if I even succeed and survive this horrible torture". I concluded.
My entire body had given up already, until someone forgot a very hard bash on my upper back, as I was already falling to the ground. That sound brought me back to life.
I got up with full force, glanced around and realized what was happening in my environment again.
It was Mella.
I got up and began to take to my heels, just side by side her.
Everything was happening just so fast… just like my world was being fast forwarded.
Heavy scream blasted from the other end of the building. I paused, gazing at Mella and Jayla as I wheeled.
"Dad..!" We all chorused in tension.
Jayla sprinted out of the room, leaving me and Mella behind as we ran after him.
"Oh… my… w-w-world..!!!" I flinched, glared behind Mella in shock, as I saw lots of items in the sitting room turned red. The hard floor was no exception.
"W-wwwhat the hell j-just hh-happened here?" Mella stuttered, trying to accommodate her emotions right now.
I was speechless as I watched the monster slowly walked up to her and chopped off her head, as it slashed her throat with its palmer side, leaving her body hanging in the air, her head dangling from its mouth as her hair was tied around its sharp, piercing teeth. His fangs. And with a loud growl, he walked up to Jayla, stretched forth its right hand towards him and pulled him out of his hiding with one of its claws, lifted him and smashed him right on the ground.
I watched Jayla jerk to death.
I wanted to cry, but every drop of tear dried up in my eyes like they were roasted with pain and fear.
Everything was happening just so fast, that I could not even comprehend any.
How the hell he did that is what I didn't even understand, and still can't tell till date.
When I turned to watch the entire scene carefully, I realized one of my foster parents was lying helpless and lifeless on the couch, gore trickling to the floor, and the other on the ground. I could hear his heart beating slowly, but couldn't help as my feet felt glued to the ground.
I wished I could help.
I felt my fingers vibrating steadily, and suddenly, I felt a gush of hot liquid pouring down my thighs..
Now Mella and everyone else is gone, and I've got just myself and myself alone.. all alone in that thick deep deep woods with that beast.
"What do I do now..?" I asked myself, muttering my words. Fear engulfed me as the beast moved towards me and paused. "Oh God…maybe it's my turn to die now.." I quivered, my teeth gnashing in terror. I couldn't open nor close my eyes, for I didn't know what to do or what to say.
Its eyeballs were black, and their pupils bright red in colour, slit like those of a reptile, burning in fury.
Why us?
Fairly long hairs coated its skin from head to toes. Its long, peg-like horse teeth bulged as it growled again just right before me now, releasing more tension in the air as the empty woods echoed in unison, a soft cry was released from the dark woods, not knowing what it was when I turned to look. Another gush of hot liquid flowed down me.
The beast grabbed my throat, its claws almost piercing through my skin, I froze as he brought it's ugly looking mouth towards mine, gazing endlessly into my eyes. That look touched my soul.
Was he actually planning to kiss me? Gosh!
"I'll be back for you! You can ask your mother to know more about me!" His dissonant voice spilled as he was gazing so deeply into my eyes.
I kept wriggling.
What a weird creature!
It took a few steps away, and returned in full speed, gripped me and flung me through the window.
I've never seen anyone or anything with such speed in my entire life.
And in a blink, I found myself far deep in a gulch, kind of dry but buggy. I looked upwards, glanced around, and a loud scream escaped my lips.
I tried to call for help and I wished someone could hear me.
Carl acknowledged his greeting and looked at his butler grimacing while Elise went to hold his hand and rubbed his thumb. He looked lifeless with a bandage wrapped around his chest and tubes and cords attached to every area in his body.“ where you able to get out all the mercury poisoning? I mean when was this mercury thing discovered.” Elise asked as she stood near the doctor. “ it was when we were trying to remove the bullets actually and we started noticing the black drops, but the good thing was that it was easily and quickly discovered, so he did not really need a transfusion.” the doctor explained as he pointed to the chest area.Elise and Carl heaved a sigh of relief and was led away by the doctor, she thanked the doctor and then called Sasha to keep an eye on him. Carl posted two body guards to watch the room. He really wanted to know why his butler was attacked and he knew where to get his answers.Elise called the driver as soon as she got out of the hospital, assuring him
Ever since they got back from the honey moon, things had worsened between them. They had begun fighting again and she had a niggling feeling that he knew she was going out with someone else. She shrugged and knew that he did not really care either, she remembered how they fought on evening when she had asked for information needed to set up for the festival.“ You are my Luna, you are no longer the guardian. You have no right to such information.” he had said as he typed on his laptop. “Excuse me! I am a guardian by birth right. I still have the seal and I have every right to ensure that the festival goes well. I can never abandon Victor to all those duties.” she said as she paced and stared him down.“ I will never allow my mate to slave away under the guise of being a guardian. You are my mate, my Luna and nothing else. If your brother needs help, he can get an organizing committee.” Carl waved her off while she still stared at him with an incredulous look.“ You must be kidding me
Gerald looked at his boss as they checked each file of possible criminals that could have stolen the Luna stone. Carl had overhead the conversation between Selena and Elise and was shocked when he was told that it happened the day before.“ Why does it have to be kept as a secret from me? Why should Elise even be keeping secrets from me? Have I not been a good enough mate Gerry ?” Carl asked Gerald soberly. “ You know it actually takes time for a woman who was not initially in love with her husband to grow in love. That is what it is, just give her time.” Gerald replied and rubbed his arms.Meanwhile Melissa and Selena were talking as they walked to a secret location sent by Amanda to prevent suspicions and gossip. As they arrived at what looked like a fancy restaurant, they were surprised to see Elvis dining with Amanda.Amanda thanked him for the dinner and gave him a sound kiss, before rubbing his back and escorting him out of the restaurant. She commanded the both of them to sit d
Meanwhile Elise was watching Amanda on a screen from a recording that a secret camera insect like drone implanted on the walls of Amanda's palatial house, alongside Thomas as everything was going on and she warned both of them.Melissa and Selena pretended like they were not aware when they saw the black sedan of Amanda's guard trailing them through the tinted back window. The driver dropped them off at the gate and when they both entered, they hugged and went their separate ways.Selena went straight to the shower and washed off the monitoring spell that was made on her and continued her tasks. Elise was sitting in her own lounge turned office as she looked at the various case files before her. Bianca was able to pull off a detailed dossier on everyone except that Lucas Wainwright and she was at her wit’s end because of that.Anytime she thought about him, questions about who he was, his heritage and why he was so interested in her usually came up. She pondered about who the Shadow h
Elise was very angry and sent for Thomas, she needed answers and she needed it fast. She had dismissed the both of them in anger, telling them to pull out all the efforts and information they can muster about the stolen stone.The moon festival and feast was around the corner and without that stone, a whole lot of imbalance and disaster could happen. Why would such a thing happen. After she just laid down her happiness, freedom on the altar of mating. No one can mess with what was hers to protect.The documents with the lady was the dossier she had on Amanda and a folder that was marked confidential which Elise had never seen. It had information on all the secret dealings going inside the council. Some of which caught her fancy, even as she viewed them.It seemed like a bunch of photocopies but they seemed extremely useful and too detailed to be leaked, she was waiting for Thomas as she looked into more of the documents, she saw the seal of the council on many of the papers and realiz
“One more stop before we get going!” Carl announced as they left the restaurant, and entered into the car. A bouquet of what looked like a hundred roses laid on her seat and Elise squealed in delight, she had always dreamed of having roses given to her. In fact she usually bought herself a rose each birthday she had.She jumped into his arms and kissed him soundly, Carl carried her into the seat and asked her to close her eyes while he pulled out a black silk blindfold. Elise giggled and closed her eyes, she felt the soft material tickle her nose.The car zoomed off and soon they arrived at their location. Elise could sense that it was a lounge by the loud jazz music and the scent of different colognes that was easily differentiable. She followed his hands and as she entered into the place, he slipped the blindfold and she saw a beautiful banner with her picture and the inscription of a romantic poem and balloons and a group of jazz musicians playing.Elise felt really shy and nervous
“Bianca! Bianca! Pick this phone up now.” Elise almost yelled in frustration as she chewed on her sandwich filled with avocado, lettuce, chicken and tomato. Carl had gone out to attend to business, leaving her and the maid in charge,……….. in the huge house.Elise had taken a shower changed into a purple kimono and silk and fur sandals. Then the maid fixed her a plate of sandwiches and coconut milk infused with cinnamon. She decided to call Bianca and send the text to Bianca. But she had not picked up her phone.“Hello! Chica what is up baby girl? You have not been dropping juicy details on the group. In fact you have been hoarding sweet information from us.” Bianca accused her as she called.“Sorry! I have been to busy to even come on the group. Besides the last time I checked you were getting it from Vince, that hot shot at your work place. That aside! There is fire on the mountain! You have to help your girlfriend out.” Elise begged as she dropped the sandwich in her hand and sat up
The sun was out shining brightly and the beach area seemed a little crowded, a mother was seated under a purple umbrella. She and her daughter who looked like a year old had the same copper brown hair and gray eyes. They also wore matching flowery one piece bikinis. Elise looked at them lovingly and Carl hugged her. There was a group of teenagers playing with a ball that rolled over to their side. Carl picked the black and white ball and threw it back. They all yelled their thanks and continued their game. They walked down to a row of some old shops made from browned tin roof and palm leaves, there was a row of coconut trees behind them, that gave shade to the sellers.Carl pulled Elise into one of the shops, where an old man dressed in a blue shirt and jean shorts that matched his eyes, sold jewellery. They both looked at his little collection and Carl bought her a silver and ruby pendant with the inscription of the infinity sign.Elise thanked him, but her mind was not really with
She felt the mist rise up as she looked around still searching for Lucas and she walked on a bit before she stumbled. Carl looked for her in the mist and he felt very miserable as he did so. “Where on earth was Elise?” his wolf worsened the whole thing when it began making small pained whines. He knew if anything went wrong with Elise he would have himself to blame.He suddenly shifted to his wolf and howled loudly, because he felt that she was in danger or something evil was happening to her. It was like someone was struggling with her and he gave a second howl and he sighted her in the clearing mist. He fly like he bumped into someone even as he rushed to her, but he ignored the feeling, all that mattered was that Elise was safe.He shifted back to his human form and ran to hug her. He picked her up and carried her in is arms and sped back to the house. Elise felt the air fill with tension as she tried to wrap her mind around what had just happened, who was Lucas? Why on earth was h
