Hello, guys! Wazz up? Tuesday morning here and the sun is shining brightly outside the window of our house. It's a beautiful morning filled with sunshine. I hope you had a nice morning as well. Take care and stay kind always.
~Emma~I looked at Alpha Jagger. He was silent. I wonder what he is thinking in his mind right now? I hope he will stop nurturing romantic feelings towards me because I'm not going to choose him. This whole family is too much for me to handle. I'm not fit to belong in the royal couple's family. I'm an outsider.Then Alpha Jagger looked at me. "Emma, where did your power come from?" he asked curiously.My forehead creased for a few seconds then I smiled. "My healing skill you mean?""Yup. Why are you so capable?" he asked."It's in our blood. I belong to the Sacred Flame Healer Tribe. We were born healers. My grandmother taught me everything about healing along with my cousin Josephine since we were young," I said, intentionally mentioning my cousin's name so I could freely ask him what happened to her."Yeah, Josephine is an amazing healer too! She cured my chronic asthma. Human doctors and their medicines can't find anything wrong with me. But the cough persists and she comes and hea
~Emma~"What took you so long to open the door?" he asked, eyeing me closely.I took a deep breath. "I'm in the bathroom doing my thing there when you knock on the door," I replied, lying to his face.He smirked, pinching my nose affectionately. "Liar, you are not in the bathroom, you are reading the diary," he said, exposing my lie.I groaned in dismay but smiled anyway, hiding my annoyance. "You can read my eyes like a book. What an amazing skill you have," I said, glaring at him. "Stay away from my thoughts!" I warned him."Too bad, you already let me in," he said, amused."How? When did I ever let you
~Alpha Jett~I entered Shirley's room and saw her and Augustatrying on somewigs in front of the mirror on the dressing table. The room was filledwith women'schattering and giggling.Shirley stood up and ran to my side, grabbing my arms possessively."Darlingggg!I'm glad you are finally looking for me! I thought youwouldignore me forever," she said provocatively, rubbing her breast on my arm.Her clingyattitude has annoyedthehell out ofme ever since she came into my life. "Shirley, my mother wants to talk to you and you included." I told Augusta.
~Emma~I've been reading the diary for more than an hour already. I'm glad Alpha Jagger hasn't called me yet to attend to him. I had the opportunity to read my cousin's diary to my heart'scontent.From page 1 to page 60 of the diary? Nothing interestinghappened.Should I still continue reading it? I should!When I arrived atpages61, 62 and 63 it was blank, nothing was written on it, thenpages64, 65 and 66 were torn from the diary as in discarded for what reason I don't know.
~Emma~I smiled and said, "Congratulations, you are a father now!""You are not mad at me?" he asked.I shook my head. "No. Why should I get mad at you? We are not lovers. I have no right to get mad and jealous of you," I said nonchalantly, convincing him that what happened to his personal life doesn't affect me at all. I can't afford to get intimate with him, besides, I won't be staying in the mansion for long.After I leave the royal family's residence, my connection with Alpha Jett is over. Despite telling him that I agree to continue our communication, that's not what I really have in mind.The royal family won't let any woman cause friction between the two
~Emma~"So, what did you find out in the diary?" he asked, looking at the diary I'm holding in my hand."Not much," I said with a sigh. "Um, your mother told me that Josephine told one of the maids that she met a handsome guy in the city. May I know the maid's name? Where is she now? Is she still working in the mansion?" I asked."Ah, the maid. She is no longer working at our house. She left a few months ago and I don't know where she is right now. She is probably out there working in another household in another city," he replied, avoiding my gaze.I bit my lower lip, feeling frustrated. "You know what?""What?"
~Emma~The next day, after lunch, I was with Alpha Jagger in the garden when I noticed that Oscar the gardener was not in the garden at thatmoment. Whereis he?Ah, maybe he was having a rest day today. I'm afraid Alpha Jett already informed his parents about what Oscar told me. I don't want him to lose his job."Emma, what are you looking at?" Alpha Jagger asked.I shook my head and gave him my full attention. "Nothing..."He said, "Can w
~Emma~I asked, "What are you doing there?""Do you want to stroll with me to the forest? Come with me to the forest," Augusta suggested.I shook myhead.I will never trust her again. I'm no longer naive. "No. Go alone if you want."Augusta sighed. "Then stay away from Alpha Jett, okay?""None of your business!" I said and left the window.I went to bed
~Emma~After spending the rest of the day with my family, chatting nonstop with everyone, we all call it a day with a promise to return next week for a proper family get together to be held in a nice private place, situated on the beach that can be rented for a few days, all expenses paid by Lucian.He's trying to impress and dazzle my whole family with his wealth every chance he gets.Well, I'm trying to act nice when he's around because I don't want to be labeled as the snobbish one.Before we left our house I returned the silver necklace to my grandmother in the privacy of her room. "Grams, thank you for giving me the chance to borrow this powerful necklace. Without it I'd already be dead by now," I said.Grandma smiled. "You are powerful on your own, child. You just need time to harness your power. By using this necklace you have tasted how good it feels to have limitless power at your disposal to defend yourself and save others from harm. You can borrow this necklace anytime to b
~Emma~It was a sunny afternoon. Alpha Jett and I were planning to visit another park within the city, the last one we hadn't visited yet.I was putting my essentials in my sling bag when my phone rang. I quickly answered it.The caller was my dear grandmother. "Hello, Grams..." I said, wondering why she called all of a sudden."Child, return home right away," Grams Dacia said."Why? Did something happen?" I asked anxiously."No, nothing bad happened. In fact something good happened today, your missing cousin Josephine finally came home!" Grams said happily."Whaaaaat? Is this true?" I shrieked in utter delight."Yes! Come back home immediately!" Grams said. "Josephine will explain everything to you about what happened to her during her disappearance. Hurry up! We will have a happy family reunion once you arrive!" she added merrily."OK, I will come home immediately, but I want to ask this question first. Did she come home alone?" I asked."No, she came home with her husband and her b
~Emma~The following day we woke up to a dark sky, heavy rain pouring outside like torrents."The weather is not good today," I commented, glancing at the transparent window."I think there is a hurricane coming," he said sleepily. "Today is a good day to just stay indoors, watch movies, just relax and chill," he said with a wink."Then go back to sleep sleepyhead," I said, smiling in amusement."Wake me up when December comes, babe," he joked."Okie Dokie, go back to sleep while I prepare our breakfast in the kitchen," I said, rising from the bed and entering the bathroom so I could start my day.After I finished in the bathroom, I went to the kitchen and prepared food for breakfast.One hour later, breakfast is ready. I arranged the dishes palatably on the table consisting of creamy waffles, sunny side up egg, ham and slices of ripe mangoes with two cups of hot espresso coffee.I went to the bedroom and announced, "Breakfast is ready!""Coming..." Alpha Jett replied.I returned to t
~Emma~I don't want to argue with Alpha Jett now that we are caught in the middle of this blood thirsty vampire."Babe, are you gonna back out on your words this time?" he asked. His jaw clenched.I took a deep breath, feeling guilty. "I'm sorry, but what is the use of having so much power if I can't even use it to help others?""Are you trying to be a hero now?" he asked between gritted teeth."I have no choice," I responded casually. "Didn't you see the women's faces? Their eyes were stamped with hopelessness. How can I turn my back on them? How long will they stay this way if we don't save them now?" I said."But we agreed to teleport beforehand if we don't see your cousin among the caged women? And you agreed to it," he reminded me. His tone was heavy with annoyance.We were busy conversing with each other when the announcer's voice rang in the air again, bringing us back to our present surroundings.That's when we noticed that all the vampires around us had already taken their ma
~Emma~"This one text informs us about a vampire den who are kidnapping women, suspected to be run by a powerful vampire. Do you think we can find Lucian there?" I asked.Alpha Jett fell silent for a moment. "Although it's the first call we have that tells us about vampires, it doesn't guarantee that Lucian is the powerful vampire leader of that vampire den. It could be anyone. For your information, Lucian doesn't run a vampire den and he doesn't kidnap women randomly," he said, trying to defend his family's friend.I snorted. "But he kidnapped my cousin. That makes him a bad vampire and a kidnapper! And if the texter is telling the truth, there are many women who are trapped in that mansion. What if Lucian owned the house or he was the one running that den?""Lucian would never do such things, period!" Alpha Jett insisted.I looked him in the eyes, getting annoyed at how he still trusted and defended that vampire kidnapper. "Tell me. How well did you know Lucian? Have you stayed by h
~Emma~After a good night's sleep, we woke up to a bright new day. We take our time at the dining table, enjoying the morning with our morning coffee and the delicious breakfast we ordered from the restaurant across the street.While eating we discussed our schedule for the day."We will go to the mall to buy groceries after we visit the newspaper headquarters," I said."Yes, ma'am. I'll obey all your orders," Alpha Jett jokingly said.I grinned. His absolute cooperation with my cause made me happy. We no longer fight or argue and I'm trying not to get upset easily. I'm trying to focus on the task ahead. I realized that getting mad at Alpha Jett and his family will not help me in finding Lucian and my cousin Josephine.I have to block out other negative thoughts and emotions in order to focus on my mission.As long as I have Alpha Jett and my family's unwavering support, I will achieve greater things in the future, including finding Josephine."How is your family nowadays?" I asked, p
~Emma~At 2:00 in the afternoon, we packed our bags and put them in the trunk of the car. After making sure we didn't leave anything behind, we left the house and got into our vehicle, ready to leave.Lucian's abandoned home has been our home for 7 days.I looked at the imposing old structure in front of me, sighing heavily."Are you okay?" Alpha Jett asked, inspecting my face."I'm fine," I responded with a smile. "Let's go to the city now and get this over with," I said.He replied, "Alright, let's teleport back to the area in the woods near the highway.""OK." I nodded my head.Alpha Jett initiated the teleportation process in his mind and we disappeared from the hill. A few moments later we appeared in a small clearing near the trees fifty meters away from the road. We were lucky because there were no passing vehicles at that time.He drove the car out of the woods and we traveled smoothly on the open highway."We have two main cities to choose from, West and East? Where should we
~Emma~The following day I woke up to a bright new day. The sun shone brightly in the sky above.The morning is great, no mosquito bites for me and my handsome companion who is still sleeping soundly beside me. I wonder when he slept, a while ago? Or he fell asleep the moment I drifted into a deep slumber.Anyways, I got out of bed, went to the bathroom and gargled water in my mouth and splashed some on my face to finally awaken my senses.When I emerged from the bathroom door a few minutes later, my companion was still sleeping so I let him be. He deserved a good sleep after staying awake last night.I exited the room and boiled water for coffee.A few minutes later, I got my mug, some crackers and settled comfortably on the chair on the balcony, enjoying my hot drink.I scanned the surrounding area and was greeted with the tranquil sight of the majestic mountains looming in the distance. This place is truly magnificent and ethereal especially during the early morning.I wonder where
~Emma~After six hours journey, we finally arrived at the castle aka a huge mansion situated on a hill overlooking the ocean. I looked at the gate, no guard was stationed at the massive iron rusted looking gate."That is Lucian's home," Alpha Jett pointed his hand at the massive house looming in front of us.The mansion looks like it belong to a bygone era. It has been abandoned for a long time. No movement or sound could be heard coming from the house. The only sounds I can hear are the sounds of insects and birds chirping above us, originating from the branches of the few trees surrounding the area. The vast lawn was taken over by overgrown wild plants and bushes."Do you want to enter the gate?" he asked. "Or leave and go home?""I won't leave." I said, shaking my head, refusing to leave until I saw my cousin alive. "Let's check the house and gather some clues," I responded, getting out of the car.Alpha Jett and I held hands and teleported inside the mansion. The place was huge. S
