Alexis

That dreadful dream woke me up in the middle of the night. Those scary images in mind, they haunted me for eternity. Although everything was blurred and unrecognisable, I could depict that a war was ongoing and someone was burned alive.

I was drenched in sweat and my throat was as dry as a desert. My mind was hazy and it was so bewildered that I couldn't differentiate the reality. For a while, I believed that it was real and I felt that burning sensation all over my body. Throwing up the duvet away, I rushed to the balcony and gasped for air. 

My eyes opened and I realised that it was just a bad dream. Watching the silence of the night calmed me, but my palpated chest won't let me breathe freely. 

My gaze fell on the burnt mark over my arm. I noticed tha

    AlexisIt was dusk when I reached back in the royal residency and despite my refusal to be dropped at the building where I stay, the driver insisted on dropping me safely to the apartment. He saw me having a panic attack in the car and he was scared too. I can't doubt the fact that I saw a different woman in her.What was that and why? It was obvious. I can't understand what happened to her? Just this mark that I got from Stefan and another thing that she immediately found out was that I was surrounded by supernatural creatures.This created a lot of confusion and doubts in my mind. I need answers but I won't be visiting her any time soon. Not after her bewildered behaviour. My heart was racing till this time. It took me a while and cold ice water to calm down that unsettling anxiety.My hands were shaking and I felt cold. I was getting suffocated in the room. That's why I opened all the vents to clear the air. I had a tough time here an

    StefanMy palms were sweaty and my heart was racing when i spotted her in that black gown. Why was she here? Of course, my grandmother, who was a naive and cherished everything in her life, she invited that human to have dinner with us. Moreover, that pathetic and worthless human wore my favourite colour. I can't deny that she looked beautiful but the more i felt something towards her, the more urge i felt to hate her. It was obvious why grandmother wanted her around. But i can't let her do this anymore.The more i gaze at her, i more i felt something in my heart. An eargerness erupted to touch her and pin her against the wall. Damn! I shouldn't be thinking about her this way. She was no match for me and a human like her belong to work under demon's like us.I couldn't eat when she was sitting right in front o

    AlexisI was walking randomly through the corridors since I left the office. I had this thought which bothered me alot. The way Mr Donovan treated people was benevolent. In fact, he treated his own son as a dog.I went to him in hope but I felt bad afterwards. I couldn't point it out exactly but I assumed that I shouldn't have gone to him but handled the situation by myself. My steps appeared heavy and when I reached the apartment, I felt exhausted.Everytime i encountered that demon Donovan, I felt more tired than ever. Did he sucked my energy or something? I went inside the apartment and fell on the bed. My head was aching and I decided to take a nap. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door and I got up frustrated from the bed.Who could be here and why? Wh

    The sound of the dropping blood and getting pierced by many needles, I no longer felt the pain of getting stabbed. Within these couple of weeks, i got the biggest shocks in my life, i could have ever imagined in my worst nightmare. When I decided to stay and work up, I ended up getting into hospitals, fighting for my dear life.I was wheezing and recovering from catatonia. My body was immobile and I couldn't move a finger but my mind was widely conscious, and aware of its surroundings. I could hear the beeping sound of some sort of electronic devices, doors getting opened and closed, different footsteps and I could differentiate each of them. I can guess the exact numbers of people walking in the corridors.I could hear distant noises, whether someone having a conversation or just random flies were buzzing. When I tried to speak, I couldn't. It seemed tha

    AlexisI woke up back in my room and realised that I had been discharged from the hospital. It was a sign to be relieved but there wasn unsettling anxiety erupting in my heart. I have lost my voice.I had lost my identity… if i couldn't speak then how would I connect to anyone here. How would it be possible for me to convey myself? My head was aching when I thought about it. My heart was betrayed by many… I had nothing to lose… I had lost my contact with my aunt, my dignity and now my identity. Everything slipped from my hand like a flute filled with precious wine. It messed on the floor and stained me.This loneliness was eating me and when you stay alone, the negativity chews you up. There were no more tears left to cry, and I had enough of everyone's bullshit. I couldn't take it anymore. That

    StefanThe hands on the wall clock were making sound in this pin drop silence. Since I had locked her down in the basement, I was being eaten up by an unsettling guilt so harassing her when she wasn't at fault. My mind was out of control and my heart was dead. There was nothing at all, no feeling, just hatred for everyone. And for my father, the hatred was aggressive.Even after knowing that he had nothing to do with my mother when she was on her deathbed, he abandoned her and cheated on her. It was me who understood and watched everything from the shadows. She wanted him to be with her in her last moments but that cruel heartless creature left her to die.How can I forgive him? I can't, I can never forgive him. It's just that I never had anything to prove. When I tried to raise my voice against him, I was shunned.

When I splashed cold water in my face and watched my reflection in the mirror, i realised what i did yesterday was entirely stupid. I almost committed a suicide. For god's sake, I didn't even think about Aunt Sol. If she found out that I took such a step, she would be disappointed in me. My heart burned when the guilt came to eat me. I should have thought at least once for her.Even though I left home abruptly after encountering Aunt Sol's strange behaviour, it was weird to observe that she hasn't called me again after that day. Was she still upset with me or she just left me on my way?I had to see her, at least for once

I cursed and threw the duvet away, then proceeded to take a shower.If I get late, I won't forgive Alexis, the irritating human girl. She made me work on my assignments till two o'clock in the morning and to be honest, I hardly got any time to sleep.I applied the soap all over my body and scrubbed quickly so I could gain more time.

It was heartwrenching moment for me. I was willing to do everything for him, how dare he left me like this?"How did it happened?" I asked myself while combing Stefan's hair, putting his head in my lap, i cried. Aunt Sol carried me and patted my back, she was trying her best to calm me down. "Demon's poison. It is a poison that only a demon king carried in his talons. They use this poison to defend themselve. However, he used it against his son and lethally wounded him." "It makes no sense… how dare he? How dare he took something so precious from me? I will kill him and tear him apart like my heart.

    As soon as the doors shut behind my back, the coldness around the area made the hair raised over my body. The room was well lit with the fluorescent lights placed on the ceilings. My eyes wandered to the last corner of the room, where there was a small reception desk, but no one seemed to be present at the moment.I made my ass relaxed on a vacant metallic chair; I haven’t breathed in silence since I got back to town. Everything appeared to be hazy and clustered.My sight slid to a book holder, and I took out a fancy magazine from it. I wondered why a magazine is doing in a place like this? Is there something that I Am missing?The door opened, and a petite blonde came out. Her gaze fell on me and then onto her desk. I was looking at her pensively and waited for a command.She turned to me and asked, “you must be Niana?” “Yeah!”“You have to wait for a while, the director is busy in a meeting.” she stated while smiling like a clown.I nodded and looked back at the magazine to pass th
