"Psst! Alyssa!" a voice whispered my name, causing me to jolt awake. I scanned the dark room, trying to pinpoint the source of the voice. But all I saw was darkness."Psst! Alyssa!" the voice called out again, this time with a hint of reverence in its tone."Who's there?" I asked, trying to keep the tremble out of my voice."Come take your place," the voice said, its words cutting through the silence like a knife. "Take it now. It is time."I woke up with a start, my heart racing. As I sat up in bed, I fiddled with my bracelet to calm my nerves. I glanced at the clock, 12:05. I really needed to stop watching horror movies.But despite the terror that still lingered in my mind, I couldn't help feeling a sense of awe at the mysterious voice that had called out to me. Was it a ghost? A deity? Or just my overactive imagination?Shaking my head, I got up and headed to my closet. I grabbed a sleeping bag and a pillow, and made my way out to the veranda. It was raining outside, but I didn't m
Alyssa’s POVThe environment looks beautiful. When we entered, I was feeling this creepy vibe and a sense of belonging but I shrug it away after all it is my parent’s town. Not quite long, the car stopped.I pressed the windows’s button and the window rolled down for a better view of the environment, since the window looks blurry.My mouth gaped open in admiration at the sight of the building in front of my eyes, the building is huge, magnificent , it is well structured. It looks as if they spent years in building it. It’s so beautiful.I was still admiring the house until the statement uttered by my dad jolt me out of my thoughts. “Welcome home.”“Wait what? This is grandpa’s house ? ” I asked in surprise.“Yeah, it’s still look the same as I left it as far I can remember.” He said and shrugged like it is
As Alyssa's father approached the imposing gate, he couldn't help but feel a twinge of nervousness. Sixteen long years had passed since he last set foot in this town. "Time really does fly," he mused to himself with a chuckle. He had never thought he would return, but here he was, spurred on by his daughter's desire to visit her hometown.Summoning up his courage, he rang the bell. The rich, exotic sound of the bell confirmed what he already knew: the owner of this property was wealthy indeed. A booming voice responded from within the building."Do you have an appointment with our Master?" the voice demanded.Alyssa's father rolled his eyes. "Do I need an appointment to see my father? Come on, old pa."The security guard on the other end of the intercom was momentarily unsure, but then recognition dawned. "Is that you, little boy?" he asked, his voice trembling with emotion."It's me, all right, but I'm no longer little. I'm a man now," Alyssa's father said, flexing his muscles for eff
- • Alyssa's POV As I entered the room, I was immediately struck by the beautiful sight before me. The paintings on the wall seemed to blink at me, as if greeting me. The room was painted white with stunning murals hand-painted on the burnt orange and red walls. The furniture was rustic and dark, complemented by vibrant cushions. I had never seen a room with so much furniture and so many hues. The white velvet curtains hid the long windows across the room, leaving only a shy peek. The floor was polished wood, dark and free of clutter. The room looked amazing; it was designed not just to be a room, but to feel like home. I could stay here forever.After a long journey, I sluggishly made my way to the en suite bathroom. The bathroom was also beautiful, although not as large as the bedroom. The walls were tiled with large format white travertine, while the floor was made of dull brown tiles. The enamel was chipped in the sink, and the vanities were made of dark wood with peeling formic
• Alyssa's POV As I walked towards the source of light, I couldn't help but wonder what was causing the tree to glow so beautifully. "Is it Christmas already? Or maybe there's a festival going on?" I mused to myself. I looked closely, but I couldn't see any source of light. It was as if the leaves themselves were glowing.As I got closer, I noticed a line drawn on the ground. Just as I was about to cross it, an old man appeared out of nowhere, using a stick to support his walking. He was dressed in a white garment, and his tone was deadly, yet calm. "Don't you dare cross that line unless you want to be dead. What are you doing here, child?" he asked.I was terrified, and I quickly apologized for coming there out of curiosity. As I turned to leave, he called out to me. "Wait." I turned back to face him. He was looking at something, and I realized it was my bracelet. I quickly hid it behind my back."I'm sorry, sir, but I cannot give you my bracelet. It's really precious to me. My mum i
After my grandma left, I leaped into action and got ready for the day. I slipped into a red striped pleated skirt that flared with every twirl and a red long-sleeve top that made me feel like a superhero. I stood in front of the mirror and combed my hair, admiring my auburn locks. Of course, it wasn't my natural hair color. My mom dyed it to auburn when I was young, and I've kept it that way ever since.As I was combing my hair, I suddenly remembered the dream I had last night. It felt so real, like it actually happened. I hadn't even watched any movies, so what sparked that dream? I shook my head and tried to push the thought away. It was a new day, and I didn't need any negative energy to drag me down.I made my way downstairs to the dining room, where my grandparents were already chowing down. They didn't wait for me this time, but that was okay."Good morning, family!" I said, pecking their cheeks. Grandma smiled at me, and Grandpa beamed."Morning, dear. I see you had a good night
It's been two weeks since I arrived, and I must say, these past few days have been nothing short of interesting. Alex and I have gotten really close; he took me on a tour of the town, which was informative and eye-opening. I discovered that this place is home to several supernatural creatures besides werewolves, such as lycans, chimeras, vampires, witches, fairies, and many more that I can't recall.Alex also revealed that our grandfather is a descendant of Zeus, which makes him revered as a god, given that Zeus is a Greek god of lightning, sky, and thunder, like a weather god. Grandfather was blessed with the power of thunder because of the blood of Zeus coursing through his veins. He also told me about his werewolf, who is an alpha, but no one knows for sure. That's why he freaked out when I followed him, but that's a story for another day.I stood in front of the mirror, combing my hair, feeling nervous. Today was the day I had to attend the school that teaches about all this supern
In a chaotic delivery room, a woman was screaming and sweating like she was at a rock concert."Push, push, push!" the doctor urged."I can't do it!" she wailed.But she could, and she did. And just like that, a beautiful baby girl entered the world. The woman fainted from exhaustion, but the doctors were elated at the successful delivery.Meanwhile, in a dark, mysterious cave, a man was chanting strange words. Suddenly, he felt a strange vibration throughout his body and looked up to see unfamiliar words written on the cave wall.With a burst of light, the words disappeared, and he saw the light shoot up to the moon, surrounded by a shimmering dance of stars. He followed the light until he found himself in the maternity ward of Corer Hospital. The light stopped at Ward 119, and he heard the cry of a newborn baby.Suddenly, words appeared on the door, and he understood that a part of the prophecy had been fulfilled. He entered the room and saw the new parents gazing lovingly at their b

Alyssa's POV. I begged my mom as I carried the tray filled with apples, hoping she would finally give in to my request to visit my grandparents. I had been asking to go ever since I found out about their town, and I was tired of being denied the opportunity.I had heard so many wonderful stories from my parents and grandparents during our video chats, all thanks to my mom. But for some reason, she couldn't bring herself to send me to their town.As I followed her into the parlour, I huffed in annoyance, feeling like a puppy begging for a treat. I just couldn't understand why my mom was so against the idea. It's not like I was going to spend the rest of my life there.My dad was sitting on a rocking chair, reading the newspaper. He looked up as we entered, his glasses perched on his nose. "What are you begging for again?" he asked, his eyes locking onto mine.I let out a sigh. "If I tell you, it's not like you're going to allow me since the love of your life doesn't want me to go," I s
