Alexis
The air pressure was high and the temperature was low. With each passing second, I observed that the tension was building up. Stefan glared at Karl. His gaze was intensified by melting Karl. Karl didn't lift his head unless he was asked to.
"Prince Stefan, how can I help you?" He asked politely. However, Stefan seems to be in a bad mood. Probably another episode of mood swings.
"Leave us alone…" he spat in a serious tone. While he talked with Karl, his eyes were glued at me. He locked his eyes with mine and I felt burned under his gaze.
Karl left immediately after Stefan's command.
"Stefan? What was that?" I asked him as soon as Karl left.
Instead of replying b
The dark clouds covered the black but magnificent sky as a blanket made of velvety fleece. The twinkling stars disappeared, or maybe hid under the thick layers of foggy clouds.Only the full moon was strong enough to stand against the odd of night. Its light shone on the ground as a blessing for some, but a curse for others. The air swept the coldness around the small town in western Europe.The white sheet of snow clustered around the corners of the town, isolating it from the entire place. There were few of the houses with dim lights focusing on the streets. The freezing weather outside the small houses made the residents shutting themselves from the commotion outside a particular house in the streets.The house was old and there were cracks in the middle of the walls; it covered more than the moist present on the
Fifteen years later, the ghostly town was still haunting the residents of the town by the blood howling screams of the witch, which was burnt alive on the main square church.Since she died, nothing beneficial ever happened to the town. Youngsters were committing suicide, children were died due to endemic diseases, the older ones were getting rotten but still roaming alive.Everything was terrifying but what caught the attention of the town was the story of the ‘burned witch’ which was spread like a wild fire in the dense forest, to the nearby towns, and from there to the big cities.People from different parts of the country visited the ghost town to capture the story and most of them to see the ghost of the witch. However, it turned out that it was a rumor of seeing a ghost of that witch but the town s
AlexisThe sun rays fell over me and I woke up from a late sleep. My head has been throbbing since last night and hasn't let me sleep properly. I wanted to run away and escape this hell but when reality slapped me, I came back to my senses and realised that I have to work for a living. Glad it was a day off and weekend. But from Monday, I have to teach Stefan again.To be honest, he creeped me out last night. That sudden change of behaviour was scary to me. I got used to his tactics and tantrums, but when was gentle and caring suddenly, I got more worried. People hide their intentions while pretending to be something else. Would it be the same with Stefan? Why am I even thinking about him? I had no time to think about useless people like him. It was a wonder that he was able to pass his preliminary exams. But I doubt that it will be the same in finals. Ho
AlexisAfter pouring my heart out with tears in my eyes, I felt lighter and better. Of course, the truth was harsh and unimaginable but it was true in the end and there was nothing that I could do to change the past.Anyway, what happened in the past will remain in the past and it shouldn't affect the future. I forgive Aunt Sol for what she did to me. Because she saved my life. She was an orphan and lost her family, and that moment she found a family in me. She nurtured me when I was in comatose after getting severely burned in the forest fire. The most toxic thing was that I had no memories of my past life.Since Aunt had admitted that she adopted me as her niece, there must be a possibility of having my parents or any family member alive. But I can't leave everything and search for them.
AlexisMy head was still throbbing and I couldn't breath inside this room. Sometimes, I wondered why I felt being watched when there was no one around. To clear the doubt, I have looked at the whole apartment for hidden cameras and didn't find anything. So, I shrugged that feeling off my shoulders and got ready for the lecture. Since this morning, I haven't been feeling well. Not that I was sick or anything, but I had an intuition that something wasn't right. Should I be more careful or just avoid idiotic thoughts running in my mind. All the time I walked up to the conference hall, I was busy talking to myself, of course in my head. I stood at the door, breathed in and out several times and mustered the courage to open the door.Again, it was a surprise to see Stefan in the room, earlier than me, but there was a smug face. He looked kinda pissed. But then, my gaze fell on Me Donovan, standing just a few metres away from him, studying one of my journals I left in the hall in last clas
AlexisMy heart was racing abruptly and i was suffocating. My lungs were burning when I gasped for air but my windpipe seems to be blocked. I rushed to the balcony and felt relieved when the cold blow of air passed through my lungs. This sudden accident, how did it happened and why? How did I dream when my eyes were opened? Was it a glimpse of a memory? Maybe that was my memory of the past? It was so intense that I subconsciously set the hall on fire. And the worst, Stefan knows that I have powers. What will happen now? First Elsa and now Stefan, I am afraid my secret will get revealed to the king as well. What am I supposed to do now? I can't run away or escape, or just leave this whole place and live somewhere where no one knows me. The trauma of finding out that I was an orphan and no whereabouts of my biological family, wasn't enough that I had to deal with these new issues.I kept breathing in and when I felt a bit calm, I turned around and went back to my room. Suddenly, my ey
AlexisIt was a beautiful day, if you were keen enough to look at the world outside, however, it took the mind of someone different to find out that it wasn't actually a beautiful day, just a normal day with different hues in the sky. I wondered how little things can change someone's perspective.But if you ask me, my perspective doesn't change because I know nothing has changed and it never will. It was the same day with a different shit to deal with. I was pissed when my eyes met with a brown pair of orbs. His big specs hanging over his ears and eyes darted at me. My night was wasted and my day started with awkwardness. My head was throbbing but he planted a smile on his face and greeted me politely."Good morning, Alexis. How are you?" I still recall the day we met and his eyes were cold but I could see him getting much friendlier and gentler. But why was he here?"Karl, what are you doing here?" I asked him instead of taking his greets."Oh… I came to check if the hall was furni
StefanStomping away from the hall in frustration, I barged inside the room and slammed the papers she handed me on the table. That was so annoying. She purposely did it. How dare she? All this time, I was suffering alone and found someone in her, someone I can call mine but she rejected me. She doesn't feel anything for me.Why, why Alexis? That girl who was supposed to be a human and hated me, now she ended up being a creature that I don't know. Infact, she doesn't even know who she is? But then, I remembered that conversation she had with father at dinner that night. She said that she lost her parents and memories seven years ago.Seven years ago, I lost my mother too. That storm which destroyed many villages and towns, it could be possible that she was a survivor. She also admitted that she has lived with her aunt since then. That woman must know something about her. I need to see her.Because Alexis is in danger. Yesterday, before the finishing team arrived to recover the damaged
THE WORLD WE WANTED Alexis It was a beautiful morning, when the sun shone from the transparent curtains and spread its warmth on me. It was a hectic day yesterday and i was tired. I don't remember when i fall asleep. I didn't wanted to get up so i snuggled a bit more, lying next to my husband, Stefan. Suddenly, i realised that he wasn't in the bed and i panicked. He never left me unattended, even in my sleep, than how did he left me alone today? Before i could get out from the bed and look for him, he entered in the room with a tray in his hand. There was a delioys aroma of coffee filled in the room with my favorite Choco chop cookies. "Happy anniversary, love" he greeted me with a kiss on my lips and put the tray on the other side of the bed, the he went down to touch my swollen belly and kissed it too. "Good morning, little one. I miss you everyday and i wait everyday to meet you. When are you coming to see your parents?" He was talking to the baby like a child. "This is stu
Alexis My world shattered and torn apart when i saw the love of my life dying in my arms. my ears didn't believed what my Aunt Sol said and i don't want to believe it either. 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. My heart is bleeding and crying… last time when i fall in love, he betrayed me and now i fall in love with someone i deserve, he was taken away from me. Why???? How gave him this authority?" I was screaming like a
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
AlexisThe air seems to drop as the temperature rises, and the moon sparkled in the dark sky where nothing could be seen, a demon's activities survived. Elsa was in her full form and she was ready to take a fight. I tried not to put abfight with her but she left me no choice. I wish I could change things but it was too late. I couldn't help her anymore but now that i know what i have to do, i will fight with my whole life for him.Stefan, i hope you will come out victorious, i know you will. Now that i have asked Aunt Sol to hide under shadows and kill those demons who will try to attack me, all of my focus will be on Elsa.She was the most dangerous demon here. I have to take her down, no matter what. Her fleshy teeth appeared and she no longer looked like she used to look like in her human form. I drew my sword and ready to fight her. We both ran toward each other and began fighting hand to hand. She attacked me but i dodged them and able to put a few punches on her head. It infur
StefanHeavy breaths and disturbed dimensions, i brought him in the hell of mine that i had been through all these years, specially after i lost my mother. That woman loved a wrong man, not a man but a demon and suffered throughout her life. I want to do so many things for her but unfortunately, she left this world so soon. But i haven't forgotten anything, and will not forgive anyone for this. My father, the demon king might be my father but he never played his role as a father in my life. No excuses need and no remorse required because today, i will avenge her death."So, this is the little hell you have create for me? How sweet, my dear son but i tell you that this is pathetic as you. Wasted my time when i had killed that bird and tore her wings apart." He hissed because i didn't let her out hands on my girl. "Not that easy as you thought, dear father. Maybe we should drop this tag of father and son because we need had any relationship. So, Gabriel, let us get through this and en
AlexisMy mind was still traumatized after defeating and killing Natem it was difficult to kill someone i used to love but when where was love when he killed my brother and commrades? He never loved me. He used me for his gain, and when he failed to prove his worth to godfather, he was furious when i become the protector. I have lost my borther and he won't be coming back. But i can still save this world, humans and my own people. Azeal always warned me about him but my heart and my mind was blinded by the love i had for him. It all shattered today. I have ended that chapter forever.I got up and rushed to save Stefan and Aunt Sol. I hope they would be done while i faught Nate. The fumes of the signal were faintly visible and i followed the trail to find them. I flared my winds and fly up in the sky. I found them fight Gabriel and Elsa. But strength was unmatched.Before they both got hurt, i blew a solid punch on Gabriel's face which made him tremble down the stair case. The whole c
AlexisIt was dusk and soon the demons will be active, we need to hurry up and caught Gabriel before he start a war. Although, we have destroyed the laboratory but i doubt that this wasn't the only place where he kept his army. He learned from his previous mistakes and become much clever. We ran through the corridors, saving our lives when the buildings started to collapse. Stefan was an inch away when the floor beneath him broke and he fell. Luckily, i grabbed his hand in time. I retrieve my powers because i need save it for later. Years ago when my destined brother warned us about it, i didn't listened. I wished i had one more chance to meet him, seek him. "I got you…" i dragged him up and we ran till we found a safest spot. "Why the hell whole place begun to collapse?" He asked in frustration."We destroyed the root of this horrible place, the entire plant was supposed to die. It was dusk and demons will get their powers. They will become more active. We need to find Gabriel an
AlexisThere was no time left to look for clues because we already know what Gabriel wanted in first place and at what extent he was willing to go. Before he would be back, we need to rush into the laboratory and destroy the capsules."Stefan, i want to tell you something…" i halted and decided to talk to Stefan."Yeah…""When i found the laboratory, i saw Elsa among the capsules. I wanted to save her but i fell unconcious and my lost memories revived. Now that i know what am I and what purpose i had in my life. I will stop Gabriel no matter what." I told him before proceeding to take him to the laboratory."What? Elsa was one of his experiments? Now that makes sense why he is always making human women pregnant. He was creating his army this way. Those who survived, he put them under experimentation. That evil bastard." He was furious and slammed his fist into the wall."Stefan… you will be hurt… Don't do this." I grabbed his hand and looked for injuries. Although, the wound on his kn
Alexis (in flashback pov)There was no time to bury Gaia's body so I had to burn it because the demons might feed on it. Raquel was devastated and angered, he has already made his allegations against Nate. Although, I knew he wasn't lying but part of me wanted it to be a hoax. Nate is my lover and he will never do such a thing. And hey would he do it? This mission was everything he wanted to prove his point. And it still makes no sense why he would kill Gaia. They never spoke to each other before, hardly a casual talk. But I can't share my feelings because I love him. And that's when Azeal's words reconcile, does he love me? Of course, he loved me. Otherwise why did he keep this relationship this long? Part of me wanted it to be a lie when he would get exposed. I was afraid how I would cope once he was found guilty.On the way, we killed many demons but failed to locate the laboratory. Raquel refused to leave my side when I asked him to split because he was afraid that I would get as
