I was boiling with rage. I have had it with this place and their barbaric actions and non acceptance. I slammed the door of my house shut and limped to my writing desk, I was going to give them a taste of what they deserve.Without hesitation I drew out the pen from the Inkwell and started writing.I wrote little things like Mrs. Rose the flower shop owner for all her flowers to die, for John the baker all his pastries to burn, Juliet the moodiest for all her laces and organza’s to be stolen… I was pouring out all my pent out anger and frustration on the little piece of paper on my desk. I was starting to write things a little too wicked and it was unlike me, this wasn’t who I was, the disappearance of Lucien has taken a greater tow on me than I realized. I laid my head on my table and sobbed silently.I haven’t known Lucian long enough to feel this much pain but I guess a lonely girl could easily get attached to anyone who seemed available.I was really hoping that this past couple o

After the weird looking doctor had left, Emma decided to take a nap. It was my fault that she sprained her ankle, but I have to admit it was fun watching her struggle in the dark although I did not expect it to turn out this way.I watched her sleep for a while. Her breathing was slow, steady and quiet. She looked so relaxed, like there was nothing to worry about.She turned as she slept and her relaxed face began to look trouble as she mumbled something. She was having a night mare. I crouched beside her on the chair and I put my right hand above her head and I chanted a dream seal on her.It wasn’t long before her face returned to it’s resting, worry less expression.I looked at her, she was beautiful. Everything about her was effortlessly perfect. Was it her hair? Nothing out of place even as she slept. Was it her voice? I’ve heard nothing more pleasant. Her eyes? A man could drown in them. Her lips, full and the perfect shape. Her body was perfect. She smelled so good, her scent

I blinked repeatedly before I finally opened my eyes. My head hurt real bad, it felt like there was a match pass going on in there. My entire body was aching and for a short moment I could not remember where I was. I don’t know how long I have been unconscious but I felt very weak.I started to remember everything that had happened before I passed out. The memory was still frightening but Lucian came and he saved me. Lucian, was he really there with me, was that just one of my dreams?I sat up on my bed in search of him. Just then he walked up to me.“You are finally awake. How are you doing, does your body hurt?”He asked in a hurry I could barely catch what he was saying.“Lucian”I tried saying but my throat was dry and it hurt in my attempt to speak and my voice cracked.“Hold on”He said then retreated to my bed side table and came back holding a glass of water. That wasn’t there before, he must have put it there in anticipation of me gaining consciousness. He handed the cup to

told him everything that had happened and I did not know what was actually wrong with me. Everything felt so real, I was so terrified I thought the monster would have had his way with me. I couldn’t even bear the thought of it anymore imagine he actually had his way with me. And you know what made it worse?, that I could still see the imprint of his hands on me. I looked at my right arm I could still see the faint purple finger print. I rub it lightly lighting and the felt like still on me“You just walked in on the right time. I could not even run away cause of my broken leg, I could not defend myself” I said looking down at my hands and the trembled. “Thank you for saving me Lucian”I look at him. I was feeling very grateful. I felt very safe in his company. “Sorry I wasn’t there earlier, sorry I even left I don’t know what was wrong with me”He said with remorse “It doesn’t matter, you were just in time”He looked at me for a while “Do you know the weirdest part?”I asked set

LUCIAN'S POV After Emma passed out I was filled with regrets and self blame blame. I could have stayed, why did I run?, was I too late?, would she be fine?, would things have turned out differently if I was here?I checked her pulse and her breathing to know if everything was fine. Fortunately everything was fine her pulse was normal and breathing steady and slow like someone asleep. I figured that she was just asleep. But when the minutes turned in to hours I began to worry again. What if she did not wake up what she stays like forever?I wondered how Emma coped and now I know sufferedA day past and it felt like eternity I had hopes that she would regain her consciousness. I tried calling her name, tapping her and even trying waking her up with the water method but none of it worked. This felt so unbearable. She looked pale and I only just noticed the mark on her upper arm like someone had gripped her, it must had been from her dream. She looks so distressed, the state I found her

Francis had just gotten here and he had taken off my case. My leg was even more swollen than before and now it was purple. He proceeded to carry out some minor check ups but the look on his face told me that the leg has not gotten better. Well I already knew that.“Try standing” He finally spoke.“I can not”I answered.“You would have to try anyways. I want to know how bad it is”“Pretty bad. We have tried this before”Lucian replied on my behalf.Francis looked up at him.“Well she would have to try it again for me to see and determine how bad it is”Lucian helped me up from the chair and when he let go I wobbled so I held on to the arm of the chair for support and leaned on it.“Let go of it and try standing on your own ““But she can’t”“I can’t”I repeated after Lucian.“Okay then judging from the looks of it, it is bad— did you do anything to strain it”He asked looking at me. Lucian and I exchanged glances which made Francis look at Lucian “I — I hit the leg again”I lied. I

"Nice to see you again Lucian”She said smiling. Claudine never really smiled, well not genuinely.“How did the eggs turn out”How did she know about them. What was going on here.“Scrambled”He answered and she laughed. Curse his good humor.“So, you aren’t here alone huh, two cups”“Oh yeah”“Who, a girlfriend”She asked teasing him.I was somewhat looking forward to hearing his reply but he just laughed. That was neither a no nor yes.“Where is the other?”“Oh over there”I quickly turned to the other side of wall. I did not want Claudine to know I knew him.I saw Claudine walk past me, she did not even notice I was there. It wasn’t long before I felt Lucian behind me. “Here, I got her highness a latte and myself a smoothie”“I don’t want it”I said and started walking. Lucian followed.“Oh, smoothie then?”“I want none”You asked for something to drink now you don’t want any?I ignored him and kept walking.“Okay then, I would just hold on to the latte Incase you change your min

I was here watching the sunset with the most beautiful lady I’ve seen. I looked at her with admiration while she watched the sun set.She looked mesmerized, the orange and red colours gave her this glow.“Beautiful”The words escaped my mouth with out me knowing. She turned and looked at me, she smiled and it was breath taking. She leaned on me and rested her head on my shoulder. We sat there watching the sun set slowly in a peaceful silence. “Emma”I called out her name in a whisper, maintaining the silence. She rose her head and looked at me. Her eyes shun. I looked down at her lips. Tempting. I looked away quickly. I don’t know what is wrong with me today. Is it the sunset?“Let us go to the masquerade party, you and I”That was not why I called her but I had to think something reasonable to say”She blinked and drew her head back.“Uhh, are we forgetting a little detail?”She asked.“What, I asked puzzled”“My leg”She said“I can’t dance around with these”She continued tapping

LILITH'S POVI could not explain the anger that rolled off my body after I found out the inkwell had been sold, I had been in an offensive mood ever since Brian brought the news to me, a smirk evident on his face as if mocking me. If not that I needed him, I would have dealt with him, made him beg for his life till I decided on what to do with him.At least, that would put him in his rightful position, and he wouldn't dare mess with me, for I was Lilith, the holder of lives and the one who could rule over fickle-minded men to the right path; I was their only path to salvation.I had made necessary plans in place, the pines field being one of my priorities. I needed to visit the antique shopkeeper and needed him to tell me who or whom he sold the inkwell to.As it was, my patience was running thin; I needed that inkwell like yesterday. to finally get all that I had ever wanted.I wanted power in large doses, I wanted to rule the world.I yearned for the satisfaction of seeing my own r

EMMA’S POV Ever since that day that Lucien had hung out my dirty linen for me to see, used my heart to play a game of ping pong, I couldn’t stand the sight of him.I was repulsed staying in the same space next to him, he didn’t get to treat me like that, didn’t get to say a whole lot of mean things and expect me to still be cordial with him.I mean hello, you do not get to do that.So that is why I have been ignoring him ever since then, focused entirely on my book, that seemed to confuse me a whole lot, and that stinging pain, and metal colliding with fresh was more prominent after every word I wrote.I didn’t know how to explain it, I didn’t know who to ask.I mean I could easily ask Lucien but then my ego would not let me.Right now I was on my way to the antique shop, after impolitely declining Lucien’s offer to accompany me.I didn’t necessarily want to be drawn to his bad energy.Because that was what he was a ticking time bomb that was waiting patiently to detonate taking ev

LUCIEN’S POV It took a while before she responded to my kisses, and when she did.It was blissful, I nibbled, sucked, and teased her bottom lip which elicited a soft moan from her. Her soft moan turning me on.The kiss went from slow and steady to needy, and a little bit aggressive, my hand found the curves at her back, groping softly, and her hand running through the roots of my hair.This action seemed to stir the wolf in me, begging to be let out more than ever, I was having a hard time keeping it under a leash.I didn’t want to hurt her like this, and for a moment, I wished I was human. Wished that I could give her my all without afraid of a beast letting loose.Sensing my urge to pull back off she pulled me back in, one of her legs wrapping around my waist, as I teased her with my already growing bulge.This seemed to be doing the trick as she became a quivering mess pleading with me in small breathes not to stop.Letting out a small growl, I started to feel the changes, my

LUCIEN'S POVIgnoring Emma was the most stupid decision that I had made in my entire life, I had to ensure that I was out of here before she could suspect anything.And I knew nothing could ever get past Emma.She was too smart for her own good, I had woken up earlier than her this morning, made breakfast quietly so I wouldn’t have to hold a conversation with her if she woke up.If I needed to avoid her, I had to be out of here, so I had taken my time to know all the nooks and cranny of pine field. I even saw the antique shop where Emma got the Inkwell, the shopkeeper engrossed in whatever it was he was doing. I wasn’t exactly surprised when I got home, and Emma had tried engaging me in small talks, conversation that I didn’t want to be in, so I had given her one excuse of going to take a shower, shower that ended up taking hours to finish.Honestly trying to avoid Emma, the clothes she had on was messing with my head, turning me into a complete recluse, and she didn’t even notice

I didn’t know how it got from this to this over night. I mean we had cuddled over night. Spent the whole night trying to talk everything out.I mean we even cuddled, and now he would not even look at me. The moment I knew something was wrong was when I woke up to an empty bed. The sheets still smelling strongly of his scent.But there was no Lucien. And I didn’t know what to make of that. There had been lots of heightened emotions last night. Sexual tension enveloping us like a blanket, for a moment I had hoped the cuddles would have led to something else, I mean I would have been down for it.Down for anything as long as it was with Lucien Blacthorne.But that was not the issue here. The issue was Lucien had been ignoring me ever since this morning. Speaking of which, I didn’t even see him, I have looked for him everywhere. And I mean everywhere. I just couldn’t place it. It felt like he was close by, yet far What was worse was that I could feel him, sense him, and even smel

LUCIEN’S POVEver since this morning, Emma had been ignoring me although I deserved the cold shoulders, but it still hurt. I kept on stealing glances at her during our ride home this morning, but I couldn’t get a read of her emotions. She seemed closed off, and upset I just wanted her to smile at me again. I almost died of a heart attack when I finally heard her speak, but her words weren’t directed at me, But the driver.And I wished she would at least talk to me, I wanted her to hear me out so bad. Not even when I offered her my hand to take, her icy reply when I told her we had gotten home made me recoil.Uneasiness overtook me.I let her have her space after I asked her if she needed anything; she didn’t want me around her anyway, so I sat in the living room staring at her as she wrote, her face Devoid of any emotion. But I could tell she was at peace, at least before she wrote whatever made her heart rate rise a whole lot.She didn’t even speak to me on our way to the hos

EMMA’S POVThe ride home was filled with silence, except for the soft purring of the Ac that seemed to fuel my irritation. I was not in the right frame of mind to hold a decent conversation with Lucien.The ride home seemed to drag on, and I couldn’t help but curse my bad luck.His actions lately seemed to drive me over the edge, and his words hitting the appropriate places like a stray bullet.And it definitely seemed to hit its mark.I still couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that I was his roommate, considering what we have been through together.I just didn’t get it. Get the fact that I was unlovable, and it broke me. It broke through my resolve, and there was nothing I could do about it. I definitely didn’t know what I did wrong or where everything went wrong.His indifference fuelling my irritation, I definitely didn’t want to be around him at this point, not until I would be able to exorcise myself of the feeling I had for him.I knew it would take a while before that co

Why would Lucian introduce me as a room mate. Was that what he actually saw me as? Just a room mate.I looked at him but I noticed he was avoiding my gaze. He did not want to look at me, either that or he did not have the guts to look at me after what he just said.“Ohh, just a room mate “The Emma next door said and I saw her smile, a sly smile.I kept quiet and drew my food closer and started eating. I was not in the mood to talk to any of them.“Pardon my presence at your table, I was just hoping to eat with Lucian. Are you okay with my presence here?”She was directing her question to me.Why was she asking me this. Was she not already on our table?I lifted my head and I made eye contact with her. I wanted to tell her that if she really wanted to eat with Lucian so bad why don’t the both of them just get a table else where and leave me alone. After Few seconds of not responding to her request I spoke.“You are already here are you not? Do you not think it would be rude to tell

The curtains were open, the bed was laid but she was not in the room I also did not hear water running from the bathroom so where could she be. I went to the kitchen but she was not there either. Where was she? Did she leave to find me?I stepped out of the kitchen and turned around just to find Emma in the room wearing the dress she wore yesterday. That means she has taken a shower. How long did I spend in Emma’s room?“Good morning”She greeted“Morning”I said“Take your bath, get dressed, so we can go eat. I am hungry”She did not even ask me where I had been.I just nooded and did as she said.We got to the diner after ten. It was full, fuller than last night. The look of the bar was different, the music genre too was different.“What are you having?”Emma asked.“I don’t know”I replied.“What of you, what are you getting?I asked her.“Custard, custard and toast “Ohhkay then, I would have the same”She look
