ROMEOI sat in the room chair, watching as Daniel and Elvina create a circle around the bed. Their movements are fluid and precise, like a choreographed dance. I could tell that they were both deeply focused on the task at hand.I didn't really understand the structure of the magic circle they were creating, but I could see that there are different languages or characters inscribed within it. It was clear that this was some powerful enchantment they were working on.If it were just Elvina, I wouldn't have taken the risk. But I trust Daniel when it comes to Natalia. He was always been careful and methodical in his approach to magic. And besides, Natalia is carrying my child. I'll do anything to protect them both.Before they started casting the spell, Daniel and Elvina discussed the enchantment with each other. I interrupt them, needing to know more about their plan."Tell me first what plan both of you have. She already completed 2nd month of her pregnancy," I said my voice firm.Dani
NATALIAI woke up to the warm feeling beside my bed, and for a moment, I basked in the comforting sensation. It had been such a long time since I felt the presence of another person next to me, and the warmth only made me crave it more. Without thinking, I hugged the warm piece of meat tightly, my fingers greedily exploring the hard packs of the body. I moved slightly down towards the V of the body, but my hand was suddenly stopped by another hand."Don't baby, If you don't want me to have my way with you you should stop right there"Confused, I pulled back and opened my eyes. Only then did I realize something was wrong. I was in my own bed, but I certainly wasn't alone. I was a prisoner, and the hot man laying beside me was my captor. His arm was under my head, and the other one was still grabbing my wrist, holding me in place.I looked at the situation mid-shock, not sure what to make of it. I tried to interrupt it, but only a few words came out. "What's going on?" I asked Romeo, my
NATALIAI had my breakfast with Romeo today after a long time. It had been so long since we'd spent any time together that I wasn't sure what to expect. But as soon as I saw him, I knew something had changed. He seemed different somehow - more confident, more assured.As we sat down to eat, I couldn't help but notice how attentive he was. He took care of me the whole time, making sure I had everything I needed and even anticipating my needs before I realized them myself. It was almost as if he was trying to prove something to me, to show me that he had changed for the better.Despite his efforts, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease creeping up on me. Was this all just an act? Was he trying to manipulate me somehow? I couldn't shake the feeling that there was something he wasn't telling me.Finally, I couldn't take it anymore. I turned to him and asked, "Is everything alright? Even though you did not show me yet but somehow I feel that I am missing something here?"He looked at
DANIELAfter coming out of Natalia's room, I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. The task had not been easy - the kind of magic we had just performed was strictly forbidden. But I had broken all the rules of magic for the sake of my sister and her child's life. It was a risk I had to take.When I opened my eyes, I saw Elvina slowly moving toward her room lost in her own thoughts. I couldn't help but feel a sense of kinship with her. Like me, she must have been relieved that the danger had passed and that she could now go about her work without fear of getting caught.I knew Romeo would be furious if he found out what had just happened. Killing Elvina would have been his first reaction, but his priority right now was Natalia. I was sure he would take this case to the council.Elvina was the Elven Queen, killing her would mean war. But what she did was just as bad - it could have caused a war as well. I didn't know Romeo very well, but I was co
SARAHI was here again, back to the people my father hid me from, to keep me safe and alive. As I walked among them, I couldn't help but feel the weight of the secret I carried within me. A secret that could mean the difference between life and death for me. I was born out of wedlock, but I still had the same blood as my father running in my veins - the elven blood, mixed with the human blood that I inherited from my mother.My mother died because of the sin she committed at a very young age, a sin of loving someone she wasn't supposed to - someone who was out of her league. He was an elf, and he promised to marry her. He did marry her, but he kept it secret because he was of the people of his race, the elves. My mother's love for him was her downfall, and it became mine too.My father had to hide me from the elves, who would have seen me as a half-breed, a stain on their pure lineage. He kept my true identity a secret, and I grew up in hiding, away from the prying eyes of the elven w
SARAHI sat in the luxurious room, my mind racing with fear and desperation. I needed to get the hell out of this place, and I needed to do it fast. But it was like my brain had stopped working ever since Romeo's man had put a dagger to my throat because of Natalia's stupidity. Romeo wanted to put fear in Natalia's mind and I was going to become a perfect example or subject for him to do so.The cold metal of the dagger had sent shivers down my spine and my breathing had turned shallow. I prayed for a miracle and it felt so ridiculous to watch Romeo and Natalia as they were arguing whether to spare my life or not as if I was not a person but an animal. Natalia was trying desperately to convince him to not kill me but Romeo's man never took the dagger off my neck and I waited to live or to die. But it wasn't the kind of death I thought I would die.I had always thought of dying a normal human death, getting aged, getting sick, and then eventually passing away. Well, at least until that
SARAHCaspian had been taking me on strolls to the garden every day for the past several days, hoping to find a moment where he could help me escape. I appreciated his efforts, but the fact that we still hadn't found that opportunity was starting to wear me down. It felt like we were trying everything and anything to make this happen, but nothing was working.I was beginning to feel desperate, like a caged animal trapped in this luxurious yet confining mansion. Each day that passed without a chance to escape made me feel more and more trapped like the walls were closing in on me. I started to snap at Caspian, blaming him for our lack of success even though I knew deep down it wasn't his fault.But the frustration and desperation were starting to consume me, making it hard to think rationally. I couldn't help but feel like we were running out of time, like the longer we stayed here the harder it would be to get away. It was like a constant weight on my shoulders, a gnawing anxiety that
SARAHI stood in front of Natalia in her beautiful garden, surrounded by the sweet scent of blooming flowers. But my senses were telling me something was wrong. I felt a sharp pain in my stomach as if warning me of danger ahead.As I embraced Natalia, I sensed an ominous energy coming from her womb. It was the kind of energy that could bring both light and destruction, and it shocked me to my core.How could this be? Natalia was always so gentle and kind, I never would have suspected that she was carrying something so powerful and potentially dangerous inside of her.I was torn between wanting to protect myself and warning Natalia of the danger. Should I run away from this place, or should I stay and try to help her?As I struggled to make a decision, the energy from Natalia's womb seemed to grow stronger. I knew then that I had to act fast before it was too late.My heart racing, I took a deep breath and spoke up. "Natalia, I have to tell you something. I sense something inside of yo
NATALIASitting there with Romeo, just shooting the breeze, out of nowhere, this crazy pain hit me like a freight train. Water everywhere – turns out my water broke, and I wasn't supposed to pop until next week. Talk about the unexpected, right? Now, our pack's got this rule about having to pop out your pups right here on our turf. No escaping that one. So, here I am, dealing with this delivery agony a week ahead of schedule. Romeo's flipping out, screaming for help. Pack folks start swarming in like bees, all wide-eyed and worried. Picture this: me, in the middle of a makeshift delivery room surrounded by anxious wolves. Pain's getting wild like some primal force taking over. Romeo's there, clueless as ever, and I'm just pushing through the chaos. Let me tell you, delivering twins is no joke. Contractions hit like a sledgehammer, each one dragging on for what feels like forever. The pack's trying to help, but they can't take away the grind of it all. It's a full-on battle, not just p
SYDNEYMy fingers danced nervously over the phone's keypad as I dialed Romeo's number. The urgency in my chest fueled the anxiety in my voice when he finally picked up."Romeo, it's Sydney," I blurted out, the words tumbling over each other. "I need your advice. Should I head to Natalia's now? Something just doesn't feel right, like there's an eerie cloud hanging over her due date."There was a pause on the other end, and then he asked, "What's going on?"It's hard to explain," I began, struggling to find the right words. "It's like there's something malevolent inside her, something beyond the ordinary. I can't shake this feeling that the child she's carrying isn't just a bundle of joy. It's like there's a darkness, and it's threatening both her and the baby."I could almost hear Romeo furrowing his brow on the other end. "Darkness? What do you mean?"I mean, it's as if there's an evil presence in her womb," I confessed, my voice dropping to a hushed tone. "And I'm afraid that once that chi
ELVINAAlone in the dimly lit chamber, the oppressive weight of my actions hangs in the air, suffocating me like a dense fog. The flickering candles cast dancing shadows on the intricately carved runes etched into the cold stone floor, each symbol a testament to the forbidden path I've tread. Natalia lies motionless on the altar, her presence a fragile vessel for the soul I sought to resurrect. As the cold reality settles in, doubt snakes through my mind like a relentless serpent. The initial madness that drove me to perform the forbidden ritual now morphs into a gnawing unease. Regret, thick and palpable, permeates the atmosphere, saturating the very air I breathe. What was once a desperate bid to bring back my sister now feels like a pact with shadows and echoes. A solitary tear traces a path down my cheek, its journey mirroring the torment within. Natalia, vulnerable and unconscious, is now the unwitting conduit for a force beyond her understanding. The chamber, once filled with th
DANIELI was seriously frustrated, like a fire about to explode, as I gripped Elvina's shoulder. My eyes shot a warning, trying to convey the urgency of what I was about to say. "I warned you, Elvina! Stay away from Natalia!" You could practically feel the echoes of my caution lingering in the charged air around us. Elvina's eyes were a storm of defiance as she forcefully pulled my hand away from her shoulder. Her words were sharp, cutting through the room. "You can't control me. Unless you want her to die, that is. The child she's carrying is the reincarnation of my sister, and her soul is not something anyone can dictate or tolerate."The room turned into an emotional battlefield, with unspoken truths and the weight of our complicated history thickening the air. I was torn between protecting Natalia and trying to wrap my head around the profound connection Elvina felt. The room's dim light created shadows on our strained faces, each expression revealing the depth of our internal stru

NATALIAMy heart raced like the staccato beat of distant drums as I approached Romeo, the flickering candlelight in the dimly lit room casting shadows on my face. The air crackled with the anticipation of finally meeting my twin sister, Dahlia— a reunion I had yearned for since the moment I discovered her existence. "Romeo," I began, my voice a delicate symphony tinged with excitement, "have you managed to reach Sebastian? I can't bear the agonizing wait any longer—I need to see Dahlia."Romeo's eyes, a canvas of uncertainty, met mine as he shook his head, "I haven't been able to get in touch with him yet, Natalia."A surge of frustration tightened its grip on my chest, like a vine constricting around my heart. I knew all too well the significance of Sebastian's elusive approval, especially in light of the unique bond he shared with Dahlia. "This is unbearable," I sighed, my impatience echoing in the hushed room. The scent of aged parchment and ancient secrets hung in the air, underscor
NATALIAAs the soft pads of my fingertips caressed the gentle curve of my burgeoning belly, I found solace in the quietude of the moment. The room was hushed, and the only symphony that mattered played within the confines of my body—the rhythmic ballet of life unfolding. A tender smile graced my lips, a testament to the profound connection I felt with the two tiny souls growing beneath my touch.Their kicks, playful and spirited, transformed my womb into a lively arena. Each flutter echoed the promise of an impending joy, and as their tiny feet danced beneath my skin, laughter escaped me—an involuntary melody in response to the enchanting rhythm of life within. It was as if my body had become a sanctuary, a haven where the language of kicks and twirls spoke volumes.Overwhelmed by the sheer magic of it all, tears welled up, glistening like dewdrops on the petals of a delicate flower. These were tears of joy, a manifestation of the profound emotion that coursed through me—a blend of grat
NATALIASo, picture this: I'm casually strolling through the garden vibes early in the morning, right? The sun's doing its thing, making the whole place light up like a chill paradise. The flowers are showing off their colors, and I swear, even the birds are in on this morning's party. Sarah, my partner in crime, joins me on this nature expedition. We're just soaking in the good vibes, you know? The air is all fresh and crisp, and there's this subtle aroma of blooming flowers, like nature's own perfume. As we mosey along, Sarah throws in some real talk and grabs my hand like we're in a cheesy movie. "Natalia," she says, "I'm seriously so pumped for you and those soon-to-be little adventurers." Her grin matches the sunshine, and I'm just standing there, feeling like life is hitting the perfect notes. Our garden hangout is like our secret spot. The flowers are like our cheering squad, and the whole scene feels like a happy conspiracy. At that moment, I was just overwhelmed with gratitud
NATALIA My body's like this bloated spaceship carrying two tiny passengers, and we're six months into this twin adventure. Let me tell you, it's a marathon of discomfort. Every step feels like I'm lugging around a ton of bricks – a constant reminder of the two little miracles growing inside me. Now, nights used to be my chill zone, but oh boy, that's changed. I'm haunted by these crazy nightmares like there's some evil plot unfolding in my belly. Mornings roll around, and instead of shaking off the bad dreams, they stick around like unwanted guests. The kicks and flutters? Yeah, they used to be cute, but now they're like tiny reminders of something I can't quite put my finger on. It's not just the physical strain; it's like I'm emotionally unraveling too. You'd think expecting twins would be all rainbows and butterflies, but there's this weird sense of doom hanging over everything. It's like there's this intangible darkness camping out inside me, and I'm starting to doubt if this is
