"Arrhhhh" I screamed, but couldn't pull away from the skeleton.Right in front of my eyes, I saw the skeleton having flesh.I mean real-life flesh.I tried pushing him away but still to no avail.My blood was all drained. Well! This is it.Even though I told myself I don't mind getting killed by wild animals..... The truth is I lied.Getting killed by a wild animal isn't a death I wish for, and now..... A skeleton is trying to kill me.I know that if I die then legend would have it that there was a girl who ran into the woods and got bitten by a skeleton.Perhaps! Who knows, my head might eventually end up in a museum.Is my death worth it?The hot stream of tears flowed down from my eyes as I finally gave up.Giving up the ghost isn't a bad thing I guess..... Besides, I can finally leave this miserable Earth that's filled with wicked humans.Even though my eyes are still closed, I didn't die.'Is my spirit not supposed to leave my body already?' I asked myself and couldn't answer.Sl
"Ohh!" I mumble, before nodding my head."Still! I'm sorry for scaring the shit out of you." He apologizes once more.I remain quiet, not knowing what else to say.Besides, aside from my brother Addison, no one gives a shit about manners when they are close to me, so I'm already used to it."Do you always apologize?" I find myself asking."No. I don't know why I'm apologizing to you." He stated."Ohh. So what now?" I asked since I don't know what else to do or say."You..... You would have to go back to your parents, or if you prefer you can just go back to your husband, by the time the sun kisses the sky." He stuttered."And how did you know that I'm married?" I asked because I can't remember myself telling him that."I know a lot of things about you. Just the same way I know that your name is Harper." He replied, which made me recall the fact that I have dealt with the weird name he had given to me."Alright. I want to make one thing straight. My name is Scarlett, and not Harper oka
As I was about to jump out of the window, I suddenly heard Orlan's voice."Boom!" He shouted, with a deep voice that made my heart jump out of my chest.I freak out and find myself falling backward."Were you trying to run?" He asked, and it seems that he was amused about what had just happened to me."Did you always do that?" I asked while placing my hands on my chest, to stable my breathing."I don't. I just find it amusing to do that around you." He uttered, which caused me to arch my brows. "I mean doing that around you just feels normal." He tries to explain himself."Why didn't you use the door?" I asked him because I was expecting him to use the door."I don't know!" Came his reply. "Do you still want to leave or do you care to have lunch?""I want to leave." I declare, before making my way towards the door.I'm expecting him to stop me but he didn't.I held the door handle, holding my breath as I waited for him to stop me but he still didn't.I turn around and gaze at him.Did
Orlan Titan POVWhen she opens the coffin.I felt alive, but not fully alive.I had the urge to drink something...... which is non other than blood.Harper. She was the first person I set my lifeless eyes on, and I had to bite.I need blood or else I'm not and never going to make it.To her, I know that it all happened all of a sudden, but I have planned everything out.I knew from the time she was born till the time she died.Yeah. I haven't figured out what exactly made her come back to life, but it's never too late.I place my mouth on her neck, and then I suck her blood.Her blood was just something different entirely.It was sweet and different.I found myself drinking more than I had imagined, and when I saw her passing out...I pulled away.I have long known that she's human, but I have also tasted other humans' blood and there's none like hers.I teleported her inside the old hut, and then I decided to clean some trash.The reason why it has been raining earlier is that I could
I continued to hit my fist on the door and suddenly the door opened.I was excited, thinking that that devil of a guy who is known as Orlan has decided to change his mind not to lock me up because he's scared of what I'm going to do to him.Unfortunately! The person that opens the door is one of Orlan's men, and I bet he's not a human either.He isn't huge like the other men that are safeguarding the entrance of the door.This man, in particular, has coffee brown eyes that seem to be reading my inner thoughts and his hair is black mixed with dark brown."Hi! you are not supposed to leave this house, so I hope you don't make trouble for me.....". His voice trailed. "Don't leave!" He added, this time he sounded authoritative.I swallow my saliva hard, not wanting to argue with him.He seems human, but he exhibits a cold aure.He made his way towards the window and then he fully shot the window close while using a key.I swallow harder and stare at him until he finally completes his miss
The wall broke so hard and likewise my back.I wince in extreme pain as I place my hand on my back.Pain is something that I just won't wish anyone to experience.Just as if his brain suddenly returned to him, Orlan rushed toward me and squatted on the floor. "I'm so sorry. Are you okay?" He asked while trying to assist me in getting up from the floor."Don't touch me." I pushed him away, which made him feel his heart crumbling into tiny little pieces."I didn't mean to do....""Get lost beast. You are fucking good at apologizing whereas you ain't drunk when you were hurting me." I barked while pushing him away from my side, as I helped myself to get up."I'm sorry." He mumbled while sounding apologetic."Eat your sorry." I barked, before supporting myself towards the bed."I'm trying to behave like a gentleman here , okay, and the least you should do is try to behave reasonably." He barked at me.He pushed me to the wall on purpose and now he's proudly apologizing.Is he expecting me
I stretched my hands forward and started struggling for something to grab. If only I was able to grab the air then that would have been super nice, but I can't.I struggled with all my strength and when I figured out that it was useless I decided to give up.Giving up, I close my eyes and accept my fate of being bitten by a half-dead creature.A whole minute passed and I felt nothing. I didn't feel my blood being sucked and neither did I feel any pain in my neck.What's going on?I slowly opened my eyes and to my surprise, I saw the last thing which I currently wished to see. "Ahh!" I scream while pushing myself backward.The person is none other than the devil who claims his name to be Orlan.His face was a few inches away from mine, and his greenish hazel eyes were reading me both inside and out."Are you alright?" He asked with his gentle voice.Pffft! Now he's trying to behave gently towards me."Do I look alright?" I asked him with a hoarse voice."No, you don't." He replied, and
Immediately after I opened the door, I was surprised to see Orlan standing right in front of me. 'Like what the heck?'"Can I help you?" I find myself asking, as I slightly arch my brows. "And where exactly do you think you are going this time around?" Orlan asked with his deep authoritative voice. I swallow my saliva hard and blink a few times so that I can be able to compose myself. "Where on Earth did you think I'm going to?" I throw back a question towards him. "I don't know. But if you don't mind, can you give me any info about where you wish to go by this time of the day?"All that came out of his mouth sounds melodious, but he has some other plan.I try my best not to fall for his trick because I would do anything to make sure that I escape tonight. "I want to have some fresh air okay.""And why can't you do that inside the house? Besides, I can turn on the air conditioner if that's what you desire." Orlan tries to reason. What a smart jerk. I thought to myself. "I need fr
