“Maya, you date is nearly here.” William called from the living room.“I am almost finished.” She currently stood looking at herself in the mirror. She was shock at her own appearance. What was holding her attention was her eyes that continuously keep changing colors. She slowly reaches out to touch the wavy texture of her hair. The curls softly touch her shoulders.She suddenly shut her eyes before stepping away from the mirror. She was having the overwhelming feeling of being self-conscious. She took the little black purse slipping her phone inside along with her lip balm.The moment she stepped into the living room the doorbell ring. William looked at her before briefly kissing her on the checks. He then went and opened the door allowing Thomas entrance. He stood aside allowing them privacy.“Good evening Maya.” He briefly kissed her on the back of her hand before handing her the single red rose. “You look stunning, my dear.”She silently took the rose enjoying the fragrance for a
Billy Asher kept looking at his watch. He was anxious and a bit uncertain. It took much effort but he managed to make the call. He kept rubbing his arms as there was a chill in the air. Doom always was a strange place. That year when he and Gia escaped through here it never even occurs to him that his father might possible be living here.He looks up when a chair was being pulled from beneath the table. William sit down.“What do you want?”“Thanks for coming Dad.” Billy looked uncomfortable under the direct look.“I ask again, what do you want? If you are still looking for money you are knocking at the wrong door.”“I am sorry Dad,”“I don’t believe you.”“I was frightened and reacted badly.”“It’s no excuse. We both know given the time you will do this again. If apology is the only thing you wanted to say, excuse me.” William start to rose from his chair.“Dad, please.”William looked at his son displeasure washing over his face. He slowly sits down again. He called the waiter and o
“Gia, talk to me.” Doctor Stone carefully helped her to sit down on the couch.She looked at her hands for a long time. It was becoming clear she was allowing pain from the past to reflect on her face.“I once was a different person.” She said softly.“What do you mean?”Gia slowly looked up into his face. She smiled softly.“Do you have kids?”“A daughter. She is twenty-three years old.” Doctor Stone answered honestly.“Same age as my Maya. I don’t know anything about her.” a single tear stream down her face.“Gia I only need to get a pen to sign you out of this hospital. Just say the word.”“Where would I go?”“I can make arrangements for you until you found your feet. Who do you trust?”“My father-in-law.” She suddenly stood and circle the office. “I once was part of a twin. We were Gia and Mia.”“Where is she now?”“Dead, doctor Stone. I tried stepping into her shoes to find the killer but instead I made a mess of my own life.”“Start from the beginning Gia. Tell me the story of G
John Stone looked up when he becomes aware there was someone at his door. He sits there watching as the door carefully opened before revealing Adam Blake. This was a man he despises but need to keep close to him…“Why did you ask me here?” he just seemed in a foul mood.“We need to talk.”“You could have come to my place.” Adam hates hospitals.“We need privacy.”“Why?”“Your past made an appearance in Doom.”“What do you mean?” Adam looked concerned. He can’t afford his skeletons making themselves known. Thomas Roman wasn’t in hibernation.“You remember the game we tried to play?” John asked careful.“What are you talking about?”“Valley of the sun…Mia and Gia…”“What about them? They are dead?”“I saw one part of them recently in Doom. I am just not certain which one.”“It must be Gia because Mia is dead.”John looked carefully at the man who could still after all these years talked about someone being dead as the most natural thing.“What do you remember Adam?”“The first time alwa
Gia sits in the corner of the rented motel room. She looked at the piece of paper acknowledging she wasn’t ready yet to face her father-in-law. She has to admit certain truths to herself first; that means unlocking closed doors. the words slipping over her lips, strange yet over-familiar…‘All my life I received these dreams but I never understood them. As I grow up my life begins to take shape. Nearing my early twenties, the dreams takes on specific shapes but for some time I didn’t pay attention. In all honesty I never truly paid attention, I was careless with a gift I didn’t understood. Once I lost Mia, I didn’t care much.”She stood restless with the opening of the past…‘Never being lucky in love, then I met this guy through a friend. Apparently not being too social can have a negative effect on your social standing. The first meeting went smoothly so I agreed to a second date. This little ritual went on for a month. The man was growing on me. And since everyone, that is friends
Maya feels restless and trap in her skin. Since she answered that call that was clearly meant for Thomas, she found herself in a kind of fog, clearly searching but what she wasn’t certain.“Where are you?” he called. She turned to look at the door waiting to see him. Again, her mind starts to wander… she walked beneath the golden moon. Her brown eyes lifted towards the sky, allowing the cool breeze to washed over her heated skin. Her uncertain feet leading her towards the golden orchard. The cloying sweet juices of the unholy fruit softly dripped onto her bare shoulders, making a sweet-smelling path between her full breasts and down her spine.Smiling she touched a finger, tasting the sweet honey. Her brown eyes turned golden, revealing a dangerous desirous twinkling. As she walked beneath the high moon, her body feeling alive and sensuous. Her aching fingers longed to touched the corded muscles of another sensuous body.Her skin golden in the sun…gleaming softly like the moon. Tonigh
Maya stepped into the local Bar and Grill. She immediately becomes aware of being looked at. She squares her shoulders before moving to find a table close to the window. She sits down reaching for the menu.“May I join you?”Silly Sally instantly recognized her. The jealousy was fast building. In her furtive mind and smelling she knew whose scent she was finding intoxicated just by being this close to the girl. She watches the girl slowly looking up towards her. She can even recognize the kissed-bruised lips.“Do I know you?” Maya frowned trying to place the woman.“No, you don’t but I know all about you?”Sally simply pulled the chair from beneath the table before getting comfortable.“Really…”“Maya Asher,” Sally said to make her opening point.“What do you want?”“I want an introduction.” Sally placed her order wanting the waiter gone.“Who are you talking about?”“Billionaire Thomas Roman.”Maya just looked at her. A small frown starts to crease between her eyes. She slowly leaned
Billy stood in front of the gates of Doom Cemetery. He reached out to ring the clock. He felt extremely nervous. She kept pacing wondering if someone would open the gates. He certainly learned his lesson about entering without permission.“What are you doing here?”“Bloody hell!” Billy said startled. “Why do you always just appear Dad?”“I ask again, what are you doing here Billy?”“I need to talk with you, please.”“I have nothing to say to you. Leave.”“Please Dad, I know Gia is staying here with you.”“What are you talking about?”“I have a copy of the letter send to you.” Billy retrieve the letter from his pocket handing it to his father. “I need to talk with both of you.”“Where did you get this letter Billy?” William was displeased by his usual underhandedness.“Dad it took time before I realized Gia might be hiding. I asked around. An orderly at the hospital told me she has been hiding there all this time.”“You believe this guy?”“I do.”“Why?”“He was looking down the barrel
Maya and Gia left the Stone Estate together. There currently were an awkward silence between them. They found there way out the gates now walking in the middle of the road. Maya was very worried about Thomas. Since they were separated not once did, she managed to contact him.“May I ask something?’ she stop walking a moment looking at the woman who was her mother by name but in reality, a stranger.“I am listening.” Gia keep her voice neutral.“Did you see Thomas? Is he okay?”“No…he is trapped.”“Did he harm you?”Gia looked directly at her a slight frown between her eyes. “Do you fully realize who he truly is?”“A vampire, yes.”“Did you see him transform?” Gia asks hesitantly.“What are you trying to say?”“I am just wondering if you truly know who he is?” Gia start walking.Maya watch her with mix feelings. In truth she only knows what Thomas told her. He managed to kept her away from who he truly was. Right from the first he decided to behave like he once did as a human. For her
“Maya…” Gia slowly opened her eyes hearing the name slipped over her lips. She realized she had fallen asleep on the cold floor. Slowly shifting into a sitting position, she tried looking around. She realized the lightening was better in the room. Now focused she looked around to understand her surroundings.The bedroom was trashed but it appears as though she was alone. Slowly getting onto her feet she opened her hand, the ring still nestled in her palm.She slowly walked towards the door and turned the doorknob. It opened. Stepping outside she was now in the hall going downstairs. The mansion was eerily quiet. As she approached the front door the butler suddenly made an appearance.“Can I help you?” he asked politely.Gia turned to face the man dressed in black looking gloomy. A feeling of instant annoyance washes over her body. “No,” she said snappishly.“It is y duty to be of assistance ma’am.”Gia only square her shoulders and opened the front door stepping outside. The sky looks
Maya looked at the sleeping Sylvia. She had carefully covered her body with a blanket. She noticed over time the other woman seemed to look better but has develop a cold that she can’t seem to shake.She grabbed the jacket she found in the closet. Very carefully she slipped out the front door but quickly stop in her steps. She noticed the car parked across the road. A man was quickly climbing out. She steps back into the house but the man still comes closer. He wore a confused expression on his face. Looking intently, he appeared to be familiar.“Don’t close the door,” the man said sharply.Maya stood still her hand holding the door waiting as he approached. Once the man stood in front of her he suddenly seemed to relaxed. “What are you doing in my house?” He asked surprise.Maya looked inside but noticed Sylvia was still sound asleep. She faced the man again. She frowns as he clearly seemed relaxed and this puzzles her.“Who are you?” she asked carefully.“Johnny Burns,” he said comi
William, Billy and Gia Asher stood in front of the huge black gates looking at the massive mansion. It was quite a mission getting away from the Cemetery.Gia moved forward and rings the bell. The guards immediately made an appearance. One-man step forward. There was nothing friendly about them, just severe looking with apparent danger edge onto their expressions.“State your business?”“Thomas Roman or Maya Asher please.” Gia said forthright.The man looked at her for a long time. When it was clear she won’t flinch, he reaches for cell phone. A brief conversation before the gates opened. They were escort to the front door. The butler opens the door. He steps forward reaching for Gia.“Welcome ma’am.”The men followed Gia inside.“Where is my daughter?” Gia found herself in a lavish living room.“Please wait here. I will call the Master.” The man was gone closing the door behind him.“I don’t like this,” William observed.“Why?” Gia looked at her father-in-law.“I am not sure, but som
“Maya, where are you?”The guard unlock the cell. The place stinks. He hates always being the one sends to get the girl. She always stays hidden forcing him to went deeper in search of her. Taking a deep breath, he left the door slightly ajar.Maya watching him from the dimness of the cell. Her eyes have adjusted to the lightning making it possible for her to time him once he shuffled past her. The frail woman with her holds tightly onto her wrists. She can feel the fear making her body shakes.The guard bend to check some of the other women. Taking this moment, she grips Sylvia tightly carefully reaching the door.“Hey, wait.” The guard aware that the door was pushed wider turning just in time to see it being pushed shut. Maya turned the key. “Open this door,” he yelled. “No, get away,” he yelled again.“Sylvia…”“I am here,” she whispers trying to focus on the light.Maya looked down the corridor. She can’t remember how long she was here. Her mind very fuzzy. The focus point finds a
“Gia, where are you?” Billy Asher quickly unlock his apartment door. He briefly looked behind himself but noticed no one. He just knew its only a question of time before they track him down.“Where are you?’ he asked harshly locking the door behind him. He found his heavily pregnant wife slowly getting of the bed. “Why aren’t you ready?” he yelled in a control voice.“What’s going on Billy?” she reached for the half full glass of water. Once she finished drinking, she slowly struggles onto her feet. She makes her way to the small bathroom.“How do you feel?” Billy asked but clearly was anxious.“I feel like crab. What’s going on?”“We have to move.” He said hastily moving to start packing.“What did you do? I can’t go running around Billy. My date is very near.” Gia glared at him. Watching him move about the apartment, the thought occur to her again, she doesn’t regret loving him but to have married him was a big mistake. At first, he had a descent job which he lost when the schemes s
Thomas stepped through the portal. He found himself in the Cemetery in the year 2000. He wipes the fresh blood from his lips. He slowly looked around. Everything was eerily still almost like nature was waiting for something to happened.“Stop,” he heard the voice behind him. Turning to see who it was. He noticed the man in the appearance of a priest. After just looking at him he realized there was nothing holy about him.“Who are you?” he asked casually.“I am the Pastor.” He steps closer searching for something with the depths of the clothes he wore.“Why did you stop me?” Thomas moved so fast the Pastor barely managed to follow him. He already discovered what was hidden within the clothes. When the darkly dressed man blinked his eyes, he noticed the creature still seem to stand in the same spot.“You did something…what was it?” he asked suspiciously.“I don’t have time for your nonsense.” Thomas moved so fast he was gone before the Pastor even realized. Rushing past the cottage that
Gia-Mia anxiously waits for her sister. It has been days since she last saw her. She can sense something was wrong but not sure what. She kept circling the bedroom they shared. About to go and question some of the other servants the door suddenly opened. She immediately stood motionless just waiting to see who would come through the door.The creepy butler and the driver both dragged Amelia inside dropping her down on the bed. Both men sense her but can’t see her. They both looked at the unconscious woman through whose clothes blood were seeping.“We can’t just leave her like this?” the driver seemed uneasy.The butler simply shrugged his shoulders. He turned to leave. The other man kneels looking for a pulse. He stood looking around the bedroom. “Is someone there?” he asked softly.“What happened?” Gia-Mia whispered in his ear.“Where are you?” The driver instantly alert searching but there was no one. He felt the whisper close to his ear again.“The Mistress punished her. She was of
Thomas was raking the leaves in the back of the villa’s gardens. He had been here just over a week but since the warning from Amelia he didn’t see her again. There appear to be no sign of the Mistress too. The driver just told him to keep the grounds in the back neat.He stops a moment reaching for the water. While he was drinking, he suddenly heard the noise of giggling. He stops drinking looking for the reason for the sound. He finally noticed them. A couple of servant girls looking at him from between rose bushes.“Hello,” he said carefully.The girls laughed and disappeared again.He shrugged his shoulders before going back to work. After a moment he heard the giggling again. He stops looking up when he now noticed two has turned into four girls. He suddenly smiled making the girls disappeared again. He quickly realized it was a kind of game for them.“Don’t get them in trouble,” another speaks from somewhere else. He looked around but see no one.“Where are you?” he asked softly.
