The day has been dragging for me. All I can do is think about Kell and our late-night kisses. It’s lunchtime, and I still haven’t figured out what to say to Kell. Juliet is waiting for me when I walk into the lunchroom. I try to stay off the topic of Kell and me, but Juliet doesn’t get the memo. Haley must have told her about us.
As we usually do, we get our trays and take a seat at our pot in the corner of the cafeteria near the window. Juliet slams her tray down excitedly. “Okay, spill. I’ve been dying to know all morning. What’s going on with you and Kell Cross?”
I roll my eyes and take a piece of carrot from my plate. “Nothing is going on.”
She narrows her eyes and pinches my arm.
“Ow! Jules. What the hell!” I say, flinching back in pain. She leans close and purses her lips. “Don’t mess with me, Am. I saw you arrive at

KellI lean my head back on her door. I shouldn’t have said what I did. I know I hurt her. I want to run back in and tell her that I want her to be mine. But what if she’s not my mate? I would be cheating on her if I dated her and later found the one I was meant to be with. Even though my body wars with itself, I painfully pull away from the door and step outside. I’m numb by the time I get home. Everyone is there. Mathias, Cassia, Traeger, Jelena, Nevaeh, and Azazel are there too.I can’t help but think that Amara should have been here with me. Rowan steps out of the kitchen with a bottle of beer in his hand. “Hey, little bro.” I pull him into a hug. “Rowan, where have you been?” He rolls his eyes and waves his hand. “Here and there.”I give him my best glower. “Well, you’ve had everyone worried, you dick. Next time call or text.” He sn

Amara“I can’t wait until this week is over. I really need to have some fun this weekend, or I’m going to go crazy.” Juliet leans her head dramatically against her locker with a groan.But I’m not looking at her. Instead, my eyes are glued on Kell and Tiffany, who seems to be in deep conversation. Tiffany is wearing a very revealing outfit. It’s a short black mesh top and cut-off jeans that barely cover her ass cheeks. Kell gives her an interested smile and whispers something. I guess that’s the kind of girl that he’s attracted to. My heart stutters with pain at the thought.I look down at my own outfit and can’t help but feel self-conscious. Unlike Tiffany, I’m dressed more conservatively. I look down at my white, skinny jeans, black silk halter top, and black heels and want to slap myself for letting Tiffany get to me.Just then, Juliet steps in my line of sight and gives me a puzzled frown.

Last Updated : 2021-03-07Nephilim: Supernatural Bad Boys IV Chapter 18: How can I explain?
KellI haven’t seen Amara lately, and I don’t have anyone to blame but myself. I just don’t know how to explain why I pulled away without explaining what I am. Things would be easier if I knew for certain that she was my mate. I mean, she was honest with me.Friday night is a misery, especially when I see Carrick and Haley snuggling up in front of the television. Alex is working with Mathias at the Council, and everyone else is busy. Not knowing what else to do, I decided to cool my head at Azazel’s nightclub, Garden of Eden. The club is always happening on Friday nights, and I need some time to relax before my head explodes.That night, I slip on a pair of black jeans, a black and a white plaid button-down. Gazing into the mirror, I roll up my sleeves, adjust the buttons on my shirt, and spray some cologne on. Tonight is going to be about having fun and forgetting.Once I’m done, I take a deep breath and rush out th

AmaraI hate my life! I think as I watch my mother step out of the room. Once she’s gone. I throw myself on the bed and close my eyes. God, I can’t wait until I graduate.Tears form in my eyes, which I refuse to let fall. It’s only when I hear the sound of tapping on my window that I snap out of my self-pity. Frowning, I raise my head and glance at the window. I blink with disbelief as soon as I see who’s standing on the other side of my window. It’s Kell Cross.Alarmed, I wonder what he’s doing here. Yet, I can’t pretend that my heart doesn’t skip a beat. Kell gives me an encouraging smile and gestures for me to open the window. How the hell did he get up there?Frowning, I slip from my bed and creep across the floor until I’m standing in front of the window. Oddly enough, Kell is shirtless, which adds to my curiosity. As soon as I open it, Kell slips inside. “What are

KellAmara grips my hand tightly as we walk up the stairs. I can tell that she’s nervous. “Don’t worry, beauty queen. They’ll love you. Rowan will probably hit on you, and you know Carrick and Mikhail. I swear they went off to college, but they spend more time here than they do at school. I guess it’s the perk of living nearby. Plus, it can’t be worse than your mom.” I say jokingly.She glares at that comment, which amuses me.“Shut up.” She mutters with a heated glare. It looks like my kitten has claws. She looks so sweet, wearing her hair up in a messy bun. She’s wearing a long white t-shirt that falls from her shoulder and cut-off jeans with red combat boots.I laugh when I think of the glare she shot me when I told her to change in front of me this morning. She narrowed her eyes and closed the bathroom door on my face in response. It was a little disappointing, but also funny.

AmaraI haven’t seen or spoken to Kell since he dropped me off last night. As I think through everything that occurred, I can’t help but think that I drove him away. He seemed so concerned when I told him about the vision. Unfortunately, the vision was too hazy to decipher. However, I do know that it has to do with another girl. I can feel it.I could see the scary red eyes and hear the sound of chanting. It hurt my feelings that Kell didn’t even stay to make sure I was okay. He simply stopped in front of the house, said he had to talk to someone, and disappeared. It saddens me that he ran from me when I had accepted what he is without a thought. So much for belonging to each other.That night I lay in my bed feeling the cold crawl back into my soul. I gaze at my phone longingly, but I remain strong. Monday will come soon.On Sunday, I sort through my photography portfolio and fill out scholarship applications in order to distract myself

Kell My beauty queen is pissed at me, and it’s all my fault. As I observed her walking through the field earlier, I realized what a dolt I was. She’s wearing this really hot gray dress that molds perfectly to her body. Her breasts and rounded backside look shapely and perfect. I groan at the thought of removing that dress, but first, I have to grovel.Once practice was over, I removed my uniform, took a quick shower, and slipped into some comfortable clothes. I rushed out of the showers and went to search for her. Thankfully, she was still there. Unfortunately, she was talking to that hipster dick, Taylor.I called Mathias yesterday to see if he could help Amara and me but balked when he insisted that I bring her to the council chambers. I just can't-do it. There’s no way that I’m going to let the Council near my mate. I’m afraid that someone might find out about her and use her. I really wanted

Amara “Where are we, Kell? I thought you were taking me home.” I ask when Kell parks his car near a tall tree and gestures to the beautiful bluff located high in the California hills.“This is my favorite place to be. I come up here to stretch my wings and fly. It’s great because it’s secluded and I can be me. Plus, it’s a good place to talk without interruptions.”I gaze at his profile. His face looks calm and wistful. For a moment, I rest my head back on the seat and observe him. I love his strong jaw, arched nose, and firm lips. As if sensing my appraisal, he turns to me and copies my pose.We both simply sit there and let the peace of the moment overtake us. That’s when I realize the difficulty Kell must experience having to live in the human world. “It must be so hard for you to hide from humans. To know that you’re not allowed to be yourself. I know it&r

Chapter 44: EpilogueKell“Ready, beauty queen?” I ask Amara as I heft her heavy luggage cart towards our rental SUV. Amara, Haley, Carrick, Juliet, and I decided to take a road trip after graduation. Traeger and Jelena invited us to a cabin her parents purchased in one of the state parks located in upstate California. I could tell that Amara wanted to get away from home. Her parents are still trying to convince her to quit school and become a model. I can tell that she’s ready to snap. Unfortunately, it will be months before we start school at Cal State, so I suggested a road trip. Everyone jumped on the chance.Carrick told me the other day that he finally revealed what he was to Haley. She freaked out at first, but Amara spoke to her, and she seems fine now. Azazel made sure that Juliet’s memory of that night with Taylor was erased. According to Azazel, all she remembers is her car stalling on prom night and her falling after stumbling

AmaraThink about Juliet…Think about Juliet… I keep repeating in my head as I gaze into the mirror. At first, my vision swirls, and everything is hazy. I blink my eyes, trying to focus, but everything is too blurry. After a moment, I think I’m going to get stuck like this, but then as if someone turned a television on, my vision sharpens.I’m surprised to find myself in the school greenhouse. This time I’m not in someone’s mind. I’m definitely me. I look down for reassurance and see my beautiful prom dress and sigh in relief. Hopefully, this will stop the dreadful cold that debilitates me when I snap out of my vision.I can see all the beautiful flowers and the stars gleaming from beyond the glass ceiling and the ivy vines wrapped around the greenhouse walls. I walk around for a moment, confused. It feels so real. I can smell the scent of roses and other plants. I move closer and run my fingers over a soft ros
Nephilim: Supernatural Bad Boys IV Chapter 42: Here we go again
KellPROM NIGHTI move my head to the music as I make my way to Amara’s house. My fingers pull at the bow-tie that hangs snuggly around my neck. I’m wearing a traditional black and white tux with a black bowtie─James Bond style. Or so Amara told me. I smile at the memory of the really bad things we did after I got the tux.It doesn’t take me long to get to Amara’s house. We decided to forego the traditional limo. Especially since my Barracuda is so badass. Amara loves this car. We’ve had some really hot make-out sessions in the front and back seat.Stepping out of the car, I adjust my jacket, grab Amara’s corsage, and make my way to the front steps. Mimi answers the door with a delighted grin. Mimi has warmed up a lot to me over the past few months. At first, she was very formal, but I wore her down with a few flirtatious comments and compliments on her outstanding cooking.

Chapter 41: Thank goodness that’s overAmara “…And the winner of the 2015 Ms. Arcata High Pageant, and recipient of the Fallen Scholarship is…Ms. Amara Vega!”I roll my eyes as my boyfriend cups his hands over his mouth and pretends to be a cheering crowd. Juliet, Carrick, and Haley join in and hoot and holler along with Kell. Removing the crown from my head, I lay it over my lap and blow out a strand of hair from my face. “Okay, guys, enough.”Kell takes my hand and chuckles exuberantly. “Aww, come on, beauty queen, we’re just excited that you won.”I smile shyly and rest my head on his shoulder. “Thank you for being there,” I lay a kiss on his cheek, then turn to my friends. “Thank you all. It was really fun.”Carrick whoops from the driver’s seat of the car and winks at me from the rearview mirror
Nephilim: Supernatural Bad Boys IV Chapter 40: It’s not the end of the world…is it?
KellShe looks so small lying in my bed. Caressing my hand down her smooth jaw, I move a stray strand of hair behind her cheek. Amara fell asleep as soon as we got into Mathias’ car. I had to carry her exhausted body into my house. Thankfully, her candidacy for the Ms. Arcata High pageant didn’t suffer. I called Carrick on the way to the house, and he told me that people were intrigued by her mysterious exit from the ball. I will admit that Jordana intimidates me. So, I texted her and told her that Amara was not coming home because she was attending an after-party for her pageant celebration. She seemed fine with it.Amara didn’t make a sound when I took her into my shower and washed all traces of that world from our bodies. Once I was done, I placed her on the bed, undressed her, and slipped one of my t-shirts over her bare body. I know she’ll become very upset when she wakes up with makeup residue on her face, but I just don’t have the h
Nephilim: Supernatural Bad Boys IV Chapter 39: Into the fire
AmaraI feel like a statue made of bone and mass. All I can do is stand there and watch as the man I love and his friends fight the evil that Marael and Taylor have wrought upon us. I try to fight the spell that keeps me from moving, but it’s impossible. So, I simply gaze into my boyfriend’s eyes and try to broadcast all the love I feel for him. He looks so desperate to save me. It’s almost heartbreaking to see the hope in his eyes.If only I could break loose from this spell, but all I can do is scream inside. I feel like a soul trapped inside a dead shell. My body jostles painfully when Taylor pulls me over his shoulder and carries me away. I can hear Kell’s footsteps following close behind us. Suddenly, a loud crack resounds in the room, and Taylor and I are weightless. My stomach flips as our bodies descend rapidly through a black abyss. I close my eyes as my body plummets to its death. The breeze stirs my hair, and my body is
Nephilim: Supernatural Bad Boys IV Chapter 38: I will find you
Kell“It’s over here,” I say, pointing to an old church hidden by a cove of trees. After I tracked Amara’s phone, Azazel and I drove until we were in the deeply wooded area a few miles from Arcata. The area is deathly dark and unnervingly quiet. You can’t even hear the song of crickets. Which is odd in this part of California. It seems that every animal has left the area. In the center of the wooded area, there’s an ominous-looking church that has seen better days.The church is old and unkempt with crumbling cement and brick walls painted in garish mud colors. There’s a bell tower centered on the top, and most of the stained glass windows are cracked or boarded up. The wooden front door looks like it is falling off its hinges. As we near the church, I remove my jacket and tie. The air is almost oppressive the closer we get. An ominous feeling seizes me as I step out of the car and take a few heavy steps.Azazel follows
Nephilim: Supernatural Bad Boys IV Chapter 37: It’s you! But how?
AmaraI can’t believe this is happening right now. It never occurred to me that Taylor might have been involved in all these deaths. But here I am, waking up to find myself tied to a column in the middle of some church. I look around in hopes of figuring out where I am. There are stained glass windows depicting an army of angels coming down from the heavens and wooden pews, just like the other ones in my visions. Used candles create a sinister décor as they lie strewn around the room. My eyes land on the large stone altar with dried blood in the center of the floor. Hysteria rises in my throat at the thought of what might happen to me. Taylor is going to kill me the same way he killed those other girls.My arms ache as I strain to release them from their bonds. All I need to do is get to the private pocket in my thigh to reach for my cell phone. Hopelessness overwhelms me at the realization that my hands are tied too tightly to reach the pocket. I can&rsqu
Nephilim: Supernatural Bad Boys IV Chapter 36: Just when I thought things were back to normal
KellI make my way to the table and almost faint in shock when I see who’s there. Rowan is sitting at the table with Carrick and Haley. He’s wearing the black suit jacket I told him to wear, which is not exactly appropriate for the occasion.As I stroll casually toward the table, I search around for some answers. “Hey, bro. So you decided to come after all.”He nods his head and smiles cynically. “I was bored. And since you invited me, I figured I’d come around and see what all the flash was about.”He looks around the room, then back at me. “Where’s Amara?”I point to the balcony. “She’s in the ladies’ room.”Rowan moves his head to the music but quickly stiffens when Juliet walks up to the table and stops as if pulled by an invisible rope. Her smile fades instantly. You can almost feel the tension in the air. However, they don’t acknowledge each other
