last update Last Updated: 2025-01-03 23:34:03

🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀

I stood there, everything seemed to be moving in slow motion.

The bones launched towards me fearlessly and instead of fighting back, I dropped my hands.

“Melonie!!!” I could hear Arwan screaming, but it was too late, I didn't want to fight back and they were just an inch away.

I slammed my eyes shut, awaiting their blow when I felt someone fighting beside me.

My eyes popped open and I was stunned by the person In Front of me fighting for me, “Bruno…” I called out, “Why are you?”

“You need to be alive so I can kill you myself,” He retorted coldly.

A small smile cropped at the corner of my lips, “I've always known you like me.”

“Don't be delusional,” he snapped back, “These bones are no longer the people you know, they are being controlled by something even more dangerous, so pick your freaking hands up and fight back.”

I felt like my strength came back from wherever it went.

My eyes turned yellow, my claws pooped out and fire surrounded me as I proceeded to attack.

    🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀Bruno sent me a threatening gaze, “Get up Melonie… we need to check up on the others, if we go too late, we might lose them and it would be your fault.”At the mention of losing them, I jumped up, but I could still feel my body ache, “Bruno, what are you?”He glanced at me confusedly, “What do you mean? I'm a Lycanthropic dragon.”I jingled my head in refusal, “No you are not.” I argued. “Arwan is an ancient lycanthropic dragon and he's exhausted. So what the hell are you?”“I already told you Melonie, so stop being nosy, it's annoying,” Bruno snapped back, “This is just luck.”“Nah…” I retorted, “You are a suspect Bruno – I mean, I'm a dragon wolf, the strongest being in the universe and I'm fucking tired after such a toxic fight.”“Lazy idiot!” Bruno growled, “You simply need more training.”We got to where Alpha Vargus and Clara were supposed to be, and my heart skipped a beat when I found Clara lying severely wounded on the ground.“Clara,” I murmured, running

    🥀 CLARA'S POV 🥀My heart felt like it had been shattered into a million pieces, each one piercing my soul like a shard of glass. The pain was overwhelming, a crushing weight that threatened to consume me.I felt empty, and hollow, like a part of me had been ripped away. Every breath I took felt like a struggle, every beat of my heart a reminder that the person I love would never love me back.My heart was broken, extremely broken, and I didn't know how to put it back together again. All I could do was hold on to the fragments, and hope that someday, somehow, I would find a way to heal.Rather than going to Alpha Vargus's room, I went to Melonie.“Hey,” Melonie called out, “You good?”I went straight to the bed to rest, slamming my eyes shut.“Why aren't you with Alpha Vargus?” Melonie asked curiously.“I don't want to be with any of them right now,’’ I retorted. “Arlo or Alpha Vargus. Although I'd prefer to stay with Arlo… he doesn't want me.”“Take a rest baby,” Melonie calmly advi

My mouth opened, but only silence came out.I felt like I was drowning in my anxiety, unable to find the courage to utter a single word. My heart was racing, my palms sweating, and I was paralyzed by fear.The words swirled in my mind, a jumbled mess of thoughts and emotions, but I couldn't bring myself to give them a voice.My lips trembled, and my chin quivered, as I struggled to find the strength to speak.“Wh – what — what just happened,” I stammered.I slowly glanced at everyone, they looked terrified, maybe more than I am.“Okay — I agree, something is not right,” Lavanya muttered.“What kind of tornado is that?” Queen Manon voiced, “I could swear I saw fire in it.”“That wasn't just a tornado,” Bruno stated, “That was a person. She's called darkness, and she came from hell.”I bit my lower lips, “What???”“How did you — how do you know all this Bruno?

I felt lost and disoriented, unsure of which direction to turn or what to do next.Everything seemed foggy and unclear, like trying to navigate through a thick mist. I couldn't shake the feeling that I was missing something important, but I couldn't quite put my finger on what it was.“If my twin brother, Alastor Aeron really wants me, why don't he just come to me and say it? And my father, Warrick Aeron… if he's alive when is he planning to make a move?” I thought.“Melonie?” Arwan's voice called out, walking towards me, he threw his arms around me, hugging me from behind, “I know you are worried.”“I can't help it,” I replied truthfully, “I'm always the root trouble and I'm scared they will really kick me out one day.”“Hey,” Arwan called, spinning me around to face him, “None of this is your fault, and you don't have to worry. I will never leave you or forsake you.”

When my parents left, all my twin sister and myself had left was this home.“What happened?” I thought in confusion.I remember, standing right there when mrs darkness was summoned and all of a sudden, I was in my past.“Am I hallucinating?” I reasoned out, but it felt real.I picked up a piece of wood and dug it into my skin and I immediately regretted it.I cried out in pain as blood spewed out of the injury, “What is this? I voiced, Doesn’t that mean everything that happens to me here is real? If I die here… then I'm really dead.” I thought. It wasn't long until I coupled together what was actually happening, "I was in a game manipulated by darkness and it all started when she asked this question, what is your biggest fear?”I walked into the old crappy building, and terrible memories that had long traumatized me came flooding back in.Just as suddenly as it all started, I sa

Always hiding and weeping. Who would save you now?” She mocked.“Stay away,” I cried out, shivering in fear.She brought out her hand, and with a smirk, she launched at me.I slammed my eyes shut, feeling weak and vulnerable. There was nothing I could do but await her blow.“That's my property.” A hoarse

If you choose Melonie, the rest of your family would die, if you choose your family, Melonie would die. And if any of them dies before you get there… they are dead in the real world also.”Deep down, I knew I was making a hard decision: to choose between the person I love and the people I love. Who would I save, and who would I forsake?I clenched my jaw, my shirt was covered in sweat and my body felt hot from the pressure, and yet — I didn't have much time.I slammed my eyes shut, with sweaty palms and my heart beating fast, I twisted the door knob and pushed a door open, slowly walking into the weird dimension and making my choice.I walked through the woods, it was gentle and quiet until suddenly, I heard Clara's voice, screaming

The floodgates opened, and I was consumed by a torrent of grief.I sobbed uncontrollably, my body shaking with each ragged breath. Tears streamed down my face, hot and salty, as I wailed in anguish. I felt like I was drowning in my own sorrow, unable to escape the crushing weight of my emotions.I tried to speak, to cry out for help or comfort, but my words were lost in the storm of tears. I was alone, adrift in a sea of pain.Once again, I was killing everyone, I was wiping off the realm I swore to protect, and my hands were filled with blood, the blood of people who trusted and depended on me.I destroyed everything.“Somebody please stop me.” I cried out, trying everything to stop myself but I couldn't.I was being controlled to kill, to kill people I love.Suddenly, the chapter ended, and I was

Every single member of the family was struggling to come to terms with whatever damn scene was going on.Bruno's eyes cast downward, his shoulders slumped in defeat. Othello sat beside him, his eyes red from crying. He had been struggling to accept that Arwan was now a dragon, a god.Arlo and Clara sat on the floor, their faces sombre. Our usual warmth and laughter were replaced with an uncomfortable silence. No one knew how to lift the gloom that had settled over us. We all felt lost and alone, each struggling to cope with our sorrows.As the evening wore on, the sadness seemed to deepen, filling every corner of the room.I was a shadow of myself, even my shadow was hopeless.

The air was alive with electricity, and the wind howled with a voice that was both fierce and beautiful. It whipped his hair into a frenzy; his clothes were torn and buffeted, threatening to rip from his body at any moment.Suddenly, a brilliant flash of lightning illuminated the sky, the sound that followed was like nothing else in nature, another deafening, earth-shaking crash of thunder that seemed to shake the very foundations of the earth.Arwan’s body began

    🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀I looked down at my hand in horror as I saw the bright red blood oozing out of the cut. It was a deep gash, one that seemed to stretch across my palm like a jagged smile.I looked at Arwan; there was a sorry expression on his face, but he was still determined to drag Alastor out.He raised his sword again and aimed it at me, but this time Alastor stopped the attack.“I knew you'd come,” Arwan growled.Alastor looked at me and pushed me behind him in an attempt to protect me, and I slowly bit my lips in sadness.“I told you never to lay your hands on her,” Alastor snarled and launched towards Arwan.“Arwan, no, you can't fight him!” I screamed.I stood frozen in horror, my eyes fixed on the unimaginable scene unfolding before me. Arwan, Bruno, Alpha Vargus, Lavanya, Clara, Arlo, Dracula, and Othello are all being cut down by the relentless onslaught of the enemy.No matter how hard they fought, the demons weren't dying but multiplying.The sounds of war filled the a

    🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀It was a quiet, gloomy morning. It was like we were mourning something we had yet to lose.Arwan stood in front, “I'm sure every one of us is aware of the gravity of this fight. We may lose someone we love, but I really hope we don't lose anyone precious to us… again.”I glanced around: Bruno held Othello's hand tightly, Clara held Arlo's, Dracula stared at Lavanya, Alpha Vargus stared into the void, and Arwan stared at me.“All our lives, we have always been fighting. At some point, I wished for peace, but we never got what we wished for. Once this fight is over, everything should be back to the way it used to be, and I hope every one of us will be here to experience that peace that we have all wanted,” Arwan announced. “I can see the fear no matter how hard you all are trying to hide it, I understand… we are fighting something very powerful, but we are stronger together.”“We are ready to stand and fight Arwan,” Bruno declared.“I'm not ready,” Clara whispered, “

The weight of the moment was crushing me, making it hard to breathe. I felt like I was drowning in a sea of emotions, unable to escape the pain that was gripping my heart.As I looked at him, I felt a lump forming in my throat. My eyes began to sting, and before I knew it, tears were streaming down my face. I was crying bitterly,

    🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀I couldn't believe I was fighting my own mother, but she didn't hesitate either.She had a smirk on her face that said, “Bring it on.”Her attacks and defences made me realise she was indeed ready to kill me.“Are you really my mother?” I couldn't help but ask in the middle of the fight.She smiled, “Unfortunately, yes. I'm the thing that gave birth to you.”I bit my lower lips as I fought back the tears that were threatening to leak.She took that as an opportunity to strike and sliced my right arm open with her claws.“Arrgg,” I winced in pain, “Mother, why? I thought about a thousand ways meeting you would be… but I never thought about a fight.”“Well, I did,” she retorted, “I couldn't get my mind off meeting you and killing you.”I looked at Alastor. The pain in my arm affected him and got his attention. “Melonie, you are hurt,” he yelled.“You mean We,” I whispered, biting my lip.Warrick also took that as an advantage and struck Alastor hard in the gut.I yel

If something terrible was going to happen, I wanted to be the first to know.“Alastor where are we going?” I whispered anxiously.Without looking back he responded, “Shh. Just follow me, Melonie, trust me.”We were in a dark, cold, and scary forest. I felt like we were lost, but no matter how hard I asked, he would tell me to just follow him.“Are you sure you know where Warrick is?” I couldn't help but ask.“Melonieeeee,” he growled and I slammed my lips shut.“Whoops! Sorry!”Finally, we got to a cave and he directed us to walk in. I followed behind and we got into the dark cave with a terrifying smell.“Jeez, what in the heck smells like this?” I voiced.Alastor looked back with a smirk, “Animal blood. It's a lot of them, Warrick kills wild animals like mosquitoes. That's a sign he's close by.”We finally got to the end of the cave, but it was empty.“Is this it?” I asked breathing heavily. “Are you sure he didn't leave this

I glanced at Bruno and noticed he was staring at me.“What are you doing? You should be working,” I pointed out.Bruno inhaled sharply, “This won't do, I'll move closer.”I blinked innocently, “Coming closer to where? We agreed not to talk to each other or come close to each other for an hour, what are you doing? Let's focus, you are distracting me.”“Just a little closer,” he muttered, pouting.He stood up from where he was sitting, walking towards me.I stood up, “Stay right there.”He shook his head and started walking even closer.With a smile on my face, I took two steps back, three steps and then I started running from Bruno.He took that as a hint and started running after me, “Why are you running?”“We promised to focus for an hour,” I yelled back and increased my pace.Giggles, chuckles and loud laugh

But instead, I was met with a surprise that made my heart skip a beat.Right… the wall gecko was still in my room.There he was, Dracula standing in the shower, completely naked. I froze, my eyes fixed on the unexpected sight before me.For a moment, time seemed to stand still. I felt like I was trapped in a snapshot, unable to move or look away. Dracula, oblivious to my presence, continued to take a shower, dancing, humming a tune and shaking his butt like he was Moana, competing for Grammy. I felt a rush of emotions, surprise, embarrassment, and a hin
