In front of him was a bed. Beside the bed there is a non-wheeled steel stand like in the hospital. It has dextrose hanging on it. On the other side there is an oxygen tank. I followed the little dextrose injected host and saw someone lying on the bed. It is wrapped in a blanket from head to toe. It doesn't move. My eyebrows met and never separated. "Jake?" me again When he still didn't answer, I slowly approached the motionless body to remove the blanket covering his face. I was curious. I want to see if my vision landed, there I saw another me holding a bow and arrow that points to my chest. "Remember that guy you almost killed?" I turned my back and saw another me holding a sharp dagger. Eyes are squinted and struggling with the force of the strong wind. I am petrified when she stabbed me in the chest but it gave no pain, it just passed through me. "Do you really have to kill her so you could stop her?" Water started to escape my eyes. "I didn't... I didn't. No. I didn't k-kno
I nodded, he still hasn't really changed. "You sure, you don't want to go to the hospital?" I asked when I saw his still fresh wound, it's really good and the blood is dry. He shook his head. "I told you, Seren. I'm fine." He laughed, only stopping when he looked at the motorcycle seat where Creed was. "I think you better get going, your friend.... I think he's bored or angry?" I immediately turned to Creed, he was standing and leaning on his motorcycle, crossing his legs, in one hand he was holding my helmet. While the other is on his pocket jeans. His thick brows were in a line. I can see his whiteness from the sun shining on his skin. His tired eyes were piercing at us. I winced and looked at Ethan. After a while I said goodbye and said I'll meet you there. I adjusted the leather jacket I was wearing and walked over to Creed's place, who was sitting down. Is this Jake's grandfather? Is it still alive? What illness? Why is Jake holding a pillow? Did he commit mercy killing to hi
"I'm tired of going up just to bring you down again," Jake said sadly, "You okay?" Zach asked worriedly, I just looked at him before attacking the giant again. If a normal person might have broken his hand or get a deep wound when cut by this fan, but for this giant, it was just a scratch. Fucking freaking scratch. It is also human unlike Vroganta, the only difference is that they are bigger and their skins are thicker. Each one of us has a Giant in front of us, they are the guards of the mansion, we were about to pass it but the wall is blocking everything that can be passed. It just means that the next part of it is on the other side. I took my two daggers that were hidden in Dyana and Pride, as well as the dagger that Alliah gave. "Forfeit," it replied. I shook my head. "Never dear," I threw the dagger from Alliah at him, taking care of where it hit the important thing is that his attention will be diverted to someone else. When he lost his gaze on me, I stabbed a dagger in
"Yes, the very same." And his laughter gets so contagious like Nikki's that I can't stop the one bubbling from within me."Don't worry, it was one hella sexy bikini. At least it wasn't a onesie." He wheezed out and went into a fit again. I don't know which emotion is more prominent in me as of now- the amusement he raises in me by seeing his laughter or the need to slap that amusement off his face. I can't even tell whether to blush or not."Hey, won't you go back to work doing your room service things and all. Doesn't your manager have a problem with this?" I waved my hands about us."What wo-ohhh being room service? My boss doesn't mind at all. He's a really cool person. And I'm sorry about your food earlier.""I totally get you. I'm sure you can't neglect your stomach just like me so we're cool." I get it; really, if he's anything like me he'd be running away with the food as I was questioning him for it. My decorum does vanish when there is food in the equation."Exactly." But why
"I apologize for all of this, you must still be in pain from this morning. Your ceremony will still happen tomorrow and I suggest you teach my pet more respect, otherwise both of your heads will be on my wall" Cassius warned and walked away with his maids following him. The people and vampires started to leave and it was just me and Kate on the stage.Kate ran towards me and fell to her knees. She was in tears and she was shaking. "I'm so sorry for everything! I promise to follow the rules" she says. I sighed and pulled her up from the ground, she was so adorable and gentle."It wasn't your fault, everything is alright now" I said and pulled her along.We entered the castle again and I ordered my maids and removed my glasses and gloves. My mother was looking at us in shock. "So I assume your brother gave you your way?" she asked with a laugh. I rolled my eyes and turned to ask a maid to take Kate to my bedroom.Soon my mother and I were alone in the hallway."Kate is his pet, I'm trai
Samuel felt sorry for his wife's condition, but he couldn't do anything to at least ease the burden she was carrying.He just looked at the crib next to the bed where Jay, who was only six months old, was sleeping soundly. just to prove they aren't cheap! They're cheap!Silently, I walked as fast as I could back to the campus. When I arrived, the hallway was empty. Most of the students were at the field, training while the others were in class. I was still pissed at those girls earlier. My fist was clenched. All my anger was wiped out and replaced by surprise when I saw Ryu near the lockers. He opened his locker and took out a black bag.My body froze on the ground. Beads of sweat formed on my forehead. I looked to my left and right to find a hiding spot. I thought of turning my back and running away but then I heard the locker closed. When I looked back at him, he was already looking at me!I swallowed hard. "I, uh, I was just...going to my locker," I nervously said and quickly went
"It's an individual fight, Amaranthine." I just smiled at Zach. "But we are still a team, right?" It was clear that one of the Giants had said that only the one with the key could enter. Minutes passed until they arrived, we exchanged ideas and prepared to beat those Giants which lasted for half an hour. From here I just hid. I grinned to see that what I wanted to aim at him was freely displayed. I didn't think twice and adjusted my position and threw my blade. Sapul! I hope that this time the branch-like roots of that girl will be cut. I will only wait a few minutes before this girl loses consciousness. Others immediately approached him. I even held tightly to the tree next to me because every move they made caused a momentary earthquake. Before, they were just standing there and only moving their hands, there were times when they bent down to pick us up and throw us away like ants. It's hard to be short. I closed my eyes as the wind pushed us along with the heavy fall of on
"It's been almost fifty years since other mortals who know us and your Abuela have come to an agreement, not to let other people know and feel our personality. He said it will only cause more trouble and they will feel sorry for us." I looked at each person we passed as he continued to speak. "If I use the speed I have to make that our movement, it's as if I took mortals into account. It's not unlikely that someone would know then, because of our speed."I nodded as I looked around curiously, during the months that had passed. Nothing has changed yet. Also noisy and messy. The only difference is that every scene here is still beautiful.I was about to point to the road to the right, but he had already turned there. I frowned. But I don't care about that."What does Grandma Maria look like, Creed?" I will ask.When I saw two crooked roads, I was about to point to the right again, but he had already turned there. I frowned."In her days.... I mean our days. Maria Alenna, has the most go
I heard them groan, their connection with each other. I jumped when I got a hint. I leaned on a tree above and watched their loud collision. They lay on the floor because of the impact. I jumped into Jillan's place. Maybe sensing what I was going to do, he looked up and his eyes widened. He left the position, and raised the bow, he even loved me first and immediately let go of the arrow. I dodged it, choosing to cling to another lower length of wood. His attacks continued, I didn't do anything other than just avoid. I continued to touch the trees, only to leave immediately when they were hit by his liquid arrows. I immediately jumped to the second floor. I looked down at where Hunter was. I almost fainted when I saw how well Janra sent him an acid arrow. I adjusted the tayo and also sent it flying so that their hits met, resulting in a strong explosion. It was only a few feet away from Hunter, so I breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at me, I pointed Janra. He then followed me an
I taught him. "Shut up! I'm not a burden!" His eyes widened a little. He was surprised by what I said and backed away a little. I lowered my hand and angrily looked at that wolf.... But Sydney was already holding him by the neck and the woman was already riding on his back. "You freaking shit! You really beat me in the mud!" I looked at Jillan but she was just laughing while looking at Sydney's angry face. Sydney broke his neck then, and when he was sure he was dead he jumped to the ground. He patted himself and looked at Jillan irritated. "Why did you even pull me!?" Jillian giggled. "Hold me, it's only natural." Sydney tormented him. I wanted to laugh out loud when I saw Sydney's dress covered in mud. I quickly looked in front when I heard several growls. From that darkness, plenty of eyes lit up. I frowned watching it until they came out and showed themselves. I estimate that there are only over thirty people there and they obviously want to attack us now. "Your mother...
"Let me come with you, Celeste." I sighed. I felt Jillan's gaze at me but I didn't look at her. "It's not possible, Glazilda." I could feel him sitting next to me so I looked at him, I could feel his persistence just by looking. "I can fight, Celeste. You know that." I looked back at my dagger, what does he want me to do? Shall I let him come with us? "I can fight. I can easily kill twenty wolves in just a second." I stopped wiping my weapon. I stared at it for a moment before turning to Glazilda. "You're pregnant." I said. "You know how vulnerable wolves are when they're in that situation. Are you willing to consider your own child for this?" He suddenly closed his mouth. "Because if yes, I will let you go. I will accompany you. That is if you want to lose your son with Henry." Her body solidified. It was as if he was clarified and held his stomach, I hope he can at least think that it is not easy for me to leave him. We don't have almost everyone, the only people left her
"How is Glazilda?" Sydney asked upon entering. I didn't say a word, I stared at the sleeping Glazilda right here in my room. Her face looked so angelic. "How do we tell him?" Jenger. I still didn't answer, as if I was consumed by sadness. I hurt for Glazilda. If only I could take her pain away, I will. "She's pregnant, Jillan. It's going to hurt her." I looked at Glazilda's stomach and gently touched it, I smiled. She was pregnant and she didn't know it. That explains her sundden changed of mood, how she ate different foods, her being straight with me, especially with Henry, her sensitivity to everything. Don't worry, baby. I'll take care of you when you get out. I will treat you like my real son, just like your Mother loves me. "Celeste, why are you holding my tummy?" I immediately looked at Glazilda when I heard talk, thank god she is alive! Thank you, thank you! I immediately stood up and gave her a hug, I hugged her tightly even though her surprised look remained. "Hey,
"Celeste, what day is it?" Jillan asked me.Today is Aaron and Glazilda's wedding day. We are all dressed up decently, and just like Glazilda wanted, I wore the Champaign dress she was forcing on me. We are here at his grade and he is the only one waiting.He said he wanted to do it here since the place is closer and better."Tuesday." He didn't answer and looked up at the sky. I frowned. "Why?"She looked at me, constipatedly. He seems nervous. What else can he think about?"What date is it today?"My forehead furrowed even more, I took out my cellphone from my pouch and looked at the festival."14, September 14."He nodded at me and wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead."Jillan, what's the matter?"He didn't answer me and looked at the sky again."Jillan?"He looked down at me. Her eyes were not normal, she was restless."I feel something different, Celeste. I don't know what it is. My heart is breaking and I don't know why."I kept staring at him, I can't deny that I was terr
"How about this?" She got up in a champagne dress, it was long and if measured it would reach my feet. It was so simple to look at, just right for me. "I want the black one, Glazilda." Boredly I said. He insisted that I not wear the black dress I chose, why is it beautiful, ah? "Celeste, for goodness sake! You're going to attend a wedding not a party!" Henry held him by the shoulder so he looked at him. "Let her be." I grinned. Because the dress is really beautiful, only the bride can really choose it. "What let her be, Henry? I will not let, Celeste. Wear that dress!" Henry looked at him giving up immediately, because of that. He let go of Glazilda and looked at me as if there was nothing he could do. Under! "It's a formal dress, Glazilda." He raised an eyebrow at me. "It is a formal dress....but it's a wedding, that's not a good look." I held my breath. I know that, I just really wanted to make fun of him. As time goes on, Glazilda becomes more grumpy. It's been two wee
I walked after him. He didn't speak. "Aaron, where are you going?" I kept following him like a dog, if anyone was looking at us I would look like a fool for what I was doing. But I won't miss it. "Aaron, can I come with you?" Every step he took increased, so my speed doubled. If I slow down, he will surely leave me. I grabbed his arm so he stopped again. "Aaron-" I didn't finish what I was going to say because he suddenly turned to me, what I see in him now while looking at me is annoyance. "That's disrespectful, Chief guardian. I have to go, please let me go!" I was stunned. This is the first time I saw him acting like this in front of me. In the past, he didn't pay attention to me, yes. But shouting like this? He has never done this to me. Tears formed in my eyes. I never imagined him being like this to me. Maybe when he saw my appearance he was stunned. I can see the gradual change in his expression. "I really have to leave, go back to your mansion." He turned away after
"Celeste, can I talk to you?" I turned to Glazilda at the door, took down the clothes I was holding and kissed her. "Why?" I asked when he sat next to me on my bed. He smiled at me and took my hand, he looked up at me and removed the hair that was covering my face. "You look exactly like Alondra." I winced. It's probably my mother, this girl is really crazy. "You know, I was so happy when I found out that Alondra was pregnant." My eyes narrowed as I stared at him, there was something different about him. She is blooming so much now, why is that? "I was the first to know that your Mother was pregnant before Jethro Isaac.... I was so happy knowing that you'll be someone I will cherish the most." Her eyes sparkled like a magic dust, even if she didn't tell me I knew she was happy while saying that. "But.... I was also the saddest when we found out your family had to leave to hide you." She sighed. "I was scared, I was scared for you, I wanted to go against Alondra's decision be
"Why on earth are you here? Isn't it dangerous?" When I change the topic because of embarrassment. "This is the place where I know we are safe..... Away from greedy and abusive people." Is she belonging to those fishermen who use dynamite for fishing? "Before...wherever we went, they could follow us. Even in the corner, they could find us." I don't know people nowadays, are becoming so violent... They can fish without understanding and destroy others. "What I will never forget is the death of my Mother and Father, because of the stabbing they received from a fisherman.... We let them fish even though they should, if their boat came close to our place it was a death sentence. But we did not speak, we remained silent despite the fear." I really wanted to ask her if those glitters around her eyes were real? Maybe it's because they don't put on make-up in the sea, right? After all, maybe they didn't know then. "But, that was the most wrong decision we made.... One of the fishermen
