THE NIGHT ROAMER : Dah'ila Reborn UNREMITTING VOICES
A shivering feeling clouded her all through the day. There were a lot of questions she had no answers to, like why she was only seeing him for the first time since she worked in the mansion, and why he was so gorgeous, representing everything beautiful, but sadly indifferent. She wanders far away in thought, with her expressions boldly evident on her face.“Miss Michaelson? Explain to us the meaning of lithosphere?” Mr Cobbler's voice echoed, knowing fully well that her mind was far from the class.“Ahm… Me?” she asks, pointing back at herself. The entire class nosily fixed their gaze on her, making her flash out an awkward smile. Her legs trembled from beneath her seat as many anticipating eyes scans at her impatiently. She had just gathered the courage to speak when the strange guy walks into the class, making the whole situation more complicated than it was. Two things were involved; she had to either gather her guts to surf through the situation by answering the question, o
THE NIGHT ROAMER : Dah'ila Reborn SKILLFULLY TAMED!
After classes was dismissed for the day, before anyone could tie her down with chained conversations, she dashed out of the class and heads to the school gate. She was about to board a cab to the mansion when she discovers that her key card to the mansion was no longer in her bag. “Oh no! This can not be happening. How am I suppose to get inside without the key card?" She panicks, turning the contents in her bag all over on the floor, she did not regard how people stared at her with weird expressions on their faces. Every other thing faded in her sight as she contemplates for a while, trying to recall where she might have forgotten it. Just when she was finally giving up every hope of finding it, her mind travels back to the library where she has been for almost half the day. "It is five o'clock pm, the school library would probably be locked by now" She whimpers sadly, but resolves to try anyway, who knows? luck may smile on her. “Can I help you miss?” The library's securi
THE NIGHT ROAMER : Dah'ila Reborn CURIOUS AND DARING TYPE
Lia sits by the fields thinking of how much time it took her to ruin her perfect opportunity. But she didn't want to blame herself that much. If it wasn't for the rigidness of that weird man, she wouldn't have been stuck in this confusing state. She was not even sure, if his 'get out' meant that she was fired or she was temporally on hold for her lateness. But she has to confirm one way or another. As soon as she sees him going towards his car, she goes up to him before he could climb into his car "I need to be sure if am fired or not?" She asks with boldness.He turns and stares at the curious young lady without a word. And then, he climbs into his car and slams the door to her face. "Why don't you find out when you come to the mansion tomorrow? But then, you should know your limits. Never should you confront me like this, ever again, housekeeper!" He said indifferently and drives off, leaving Lia humiliated by his words. Seconds after he drives off, Mr Sebastian calls."Are you ou
THE NIGHT ROAMER : Dah'ila Reborn UNRULY EYES
Bailing herself out of the immediate issue, under the unruly eyes of that fearful woman, was more important. She would deal with Mr Sebastian's payment, as long as she was free. She timidly walks to Mr Sebastian, hiding her timorous and guilty eyes from meeting his."Thank you so much sir, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have known what to do under that situation" She said appreciatively."You don't have to thank me Miss, it was the boss who ordered the payment. You should know, now that you are his employee, whatever wrong move you make dents his good reputation. That is why he is forgiving you this once. Be careful next time, when you go smashing expensive things!" Mr Sebastian warns, without waiting to see her reaction, he climbs into his car and zooms off. Immediately he drives off, she continues to the mansion as before. As she walks closer to the entrance, she spots his car parked outside the front yard, the same she has wished to smash. It was very much okay and safe along

THE NIGHT ROAMER : Dah'ila Reborn TWISTED THAN NEUTRAL
The smell of plants and flowers lingered in the air as the students marched into the garden after Mr Cobbler. "I heard there are lots of rare and extinct flowers here" Some girls giggles wildly and excitedly behind Lia. They seemed overwhelmed by the sight of it, unlike Lia who would trade anything to get a chair to save her aching feet from tossing down her weight. She fastens her beanie on her head, looking for a quiet corner to squeeze into, and observe quietly. But Mr Cobbler's voice beckoned on their attention, with his baritone voice which seemed rather intimidating and difficult to disobey.“Today we are going to be experimenting on how to fertilize a plant. Each and everyone of you are expected to fertilize a plant before you leave this garden. Don't fret class, it only requires two simple steps to get it done. Which is, take the fertilizer and then apply. Now let’s start, eyes on my hands please?” Mr Cobbler's voice echoes. Taking the fertilizer by it's handle, he carefully
THE NIGHT ROAMER : Dah'ila Reborn UNKNOWN DESTINATION
Once on the bus, she was quick to fall asleep. She leans back to the seat and closed her eyes, as the breeze caressed her face. The next thing she could remember was a gentle tap on her shoulder. She flutters her eyes open to see a young man in his twenties watching creepily since she slept. She was startled and jumped in panic, wiping off the drools from her face."This is the last stopping point from the long drive. So i figured either you are alighting right here, or you might be lost" He guessed with a shrug. Lia gazed outside the window and sees the unfamiliar vicinity. She was very far away from her stop point and one thing was certain, she was out of cash. Few seconds ago, she has slipped her hand into her hoodie pocket, only to discover that her wallet was missing."Who ever did this, must have leveraged the fact that i was asleep to display his skills in thievery" She mutters disquietly. There was only one thing to do, and that was to hide her desperation and beg the gentlem
THE NIGHT ROAMER : Dah'ila Reborn FIGMENT OF LIES
They gets to a massive apartment by the down hill. At first, Lia doubted if his cousin could be living in one of the biggest houses in town, and still have a thief for a relative. Not minding, she wanted to meet this cousin and verify for sure if she was a living person or a figment of lies crafted by the man with her. Ryan knocked, pretending to be actually expecting someone to answer the door. But when no one came forth, he sniffed in awkwardly and slipped his hands into his pocket to bring out a pair sharp pins."My cousin is a party goon, so i will just help myself in" He said boorishly. With it, he clipped the door open. As Lia noticed this, she went ballistic."You said a cousin of yours lived here?" She recounts. "If this was really your cousin's, you shouldn't be clipping the door open, right?""Okay! truth be told, this house belongs to an old lady who travelled outside the country since God knows when. So i crash here often, as not everyone has a home" He explains with a wid

She couldn't help but wonder what she did wrong to have deserved the cruel fate of death."Maybe i should stop now" She thought. Before she could think further, tears streaked down her cheek. "Why didn't you warn me of your father's plans? Would you have had me die before you do?" Lia asked rhetorically. Still she thought it was for the best, maybe he didn't want her to feel insecure and haunted."Dahlia?" A gentle voice called from behind. She turned to see the queen standing close to her. Building up her confidence, she tried to suppress the tears and pretend nothing was wrong, but her confidence failed, her tears ran even more. "Nobody said it would be easy" The Queen comforted, sensing her fears and doubt."I know what transpired between You and Zaiya. Your conversations""You do?" Lia asked surprised."Yes, I

THE NIGHT ROAMER : Dah'ila Reborn ONE BIG MYSTERY
She dreamt of that endless moment of having him by her side when she wakes up. Fluttering her open, he was gone, like he wasn't there in the first place. She recalled how they made love. His scent persisted all over the room. The thought of it endlessly interfered with her present reasoning, but she didn't seem to care.She leaps on her bed excitedly, and constantly Pats her hands on her reddened cheek.

THE NIGHT ROAMER : Dah'ila Reborn THIS STRANGE STORY
Walking into the queen's chamber, she tried to lighten up her countenance to avoid suspicions, but she could only hide her expression, not her heart."You sent for me, my queen!" Zaiya bowed with her face to the ground. The queen urged her to rise immediately."I have watched you grow as a child under my care. You were nurtured as a royal born and have always dinned from the table of royals since childhood. Such privilege and favour can only be given to a child of my own blood" She paused for a while, studying Zaiya's face carefully."Thank you for your immeasurable kindness, My queen. You have bestowed such great honour on me since birth. I shall continue to be a humble fealty to the throne as long as i live" Zaiya bowed again"I presume you know your fate child? Every immortal does" Zaiya nods in affirmation."What if I change your fate? You know it's not too difficult for me, I'm the fates queen""As a child, I was born with the fate of steel and bloodbath. Meaning I was destine

"I might as well give you a trophy" He raised her up on his shoulders and sat her up on the floor. 'This is a resumption from were we abruptly stopped before, my lady" He lustfully gazed into her eyes for a while and continued. "I want to have you so badly" he whispered into her ears. She was stiff and had her eyes fixed on a particular position. He trailed her eyes to see the queen standing a little distant away from them. She cleared he throat and looked away like she saw nothing."I hope am not interrupting anything?" But that was not his concern, whether she was interfering, he wanted to know if she saw or heard anything, he embarrassingly asked."Di... did you hear anything?""Even a deaf man could hear that" she mocked intentionally, gesturing her maids to leave them alone. 'But am not here for you' she turned to Lia who tried to smile to curtail the embarrassing situation. "I guess the prince must have told you about the occasion by tomorrow's noon? I know just the right outfi
THE NIGHT ROAMER : Dah'ila Reborn QUASI COURTESY
Liam stood by the edge of the snow bridge, it was his favourite spot were he sought rest whenever he was in a melancholic state of mind. As she approached him, just a few step away from him, a feeling of alacrity rushed over him prompting a bright welcoming smile. "How did you know I was here?" He asked, surprisedly."The queen was worried. She sent me here""I was just fed up watching the pretense. Am sure am not the only one fooled by that quasi courtesy of hers""You let your anger ruin my first royal dinner, how are you going to make up for that?" Lia asked with a fake frown. He brushed a stray wisp of her hair aside and looked into her eyes playfully."How about I kiss you, that would do the magic right?" "I wouldn't know that. What if they execute me for making out with prince charming by the road side" He laughed briefly and stopped to gawk into her eyes."I'm really glad you are here with me" He leaned in to her kiss her, but stopped abruptly. "Someone is watching" he wh
THE NIGHT ROAMER : Dah'ila Reborn NO PEACE, BUT WAR
The whole kingdom were gathered to celebrate the return of the prince. On the high tables were seated Zula'an and his father."The ladies seems to be far from this fine celebration" The king said, trying to start up a conversion with him. He looked way with cold indifference. His last conversion with his father proved fruitless. "Your mother and i think we should give you a chance, I believe you will make the right choice""That is so generous of you, My king!" The tone of his voice seemed rather unbelieving and mocking. He knew his father, the king would never let her be. He never cared for his feelings. He could spell out his father's character simply by looking at him. For a moment, he thought he did saw an element of care in them, Or rather, his mother's inflicted element of care. He still didn't care. In his heart, he was just a man who has never cared about his opinion. Too bad, all his life he has looked up to him, trying to follow the footstep of the great king until the
THE NIGHT ROAMER : Dah'ila Reborn A FINE GENERAL
For a moment he regretted ever bringing her to the kingdom"We were happy before I brought her here to face all this humiliation" he clinched his fist with a bitter expression."I have seen the mortal to her chamber. She seems smart and preceptive. Something tells me she would make a great queen someday" The queen smiled, walking towards him. She was shocked to notice his expression which had a touch of both anger, sadness and frustration. She thought of something to calm his fears and worries. It was her worries too. She could feel them like a sharp blade pierced into her marrows. That was her greatest gift and curse as the fate's queen, to see and feel the pain and tragic end and also joy of others even when they do not feel it. She also was the goddess of love, so loving was inevitable. Tightening her arms around him, she whispered something into his ears."I have to tell you this, even if your father will hate me for it. I can't stand to see you like this after seeing those sm
