Skye's POV

"You look mad. Is everything alright?" Freya quickly went to my side as I stomped my way out of Alec's room.

I brushed away the tears that cascaded on my cheeks and didn't turn back until I was outside.

He's such a jerk! He told me nothing would change between us and now he's pushing me away!

"Hey Skye...what happened, why are you crying did that guy do something to you?" Freya asked, and I looked at her, my brows furrowed.

"It's all your fault, if you didn't come here in the first place then everything would have been fine." I harrumphed, walking away.

"Fine, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to sow discord between the two of you...well, maybe I did a little." I stopped, and gave her a hard glare. Her eyes dropped and she sighed, "Ok fine, I'm sorry." She said.

"It doesn't matter now. Alec doesn't want me here anymore, he thinks I was the reason why their enemies suddenly turned up. I just don't get it, we had a good thing going. Maybe he's bipolar or has split personalities? What

    Skye's POV"So you're really a phoenix, and...not a witch?" Alec asked me, tilting his head to the side like a curious child. But not innocent looking though since he's roughly big, and well... children have soft features. But it doesn't matter, I consider him as my big baby anyway."Yeah." I curtly answered, and he looked me up and down, still shrouded with disbelief."But... aren't phoenix immortals? And you don't age, so..." He paused for a while, and I think I know where he's getting at. "How old exactly are you?" I sighed hearing exactly the question I was expecting from him.I stayed quiet for a few second before answering him, "I'm 358 years old." I said, and his mouth parted widely, his eyes became void of any hint of visible emotions in them. As if he fell into an abyss. Well, actually I'm describing him a little bit dramatically, but his face was really no good when he heard my actual age."So...umm..." He stuttered, looking at me, "You're really old huh?" He said, and my mou

    Skye's POV"Skye..." I heard a disembodied voice whispering in my ears. I shuffled around the bed, feeling sore all over. "Skye..." I heard my name being called again. I slowly opened my eyes and the bright light of the sun hit my face making me groan in discomfort."Ughh... who opened the curtain, it's too bright." I complained, then I heard someone chuckle beside me."Baby, it's already afternoon. You have to get up." I fluttered my eyes to my side, trying to keep my eyes open. After a few seconds, my vision became stable and have adapt to the brightness and I saw Alec smiling at me with a gentle expression. "Alec? What are you doing in my bed?" I questioned, he think broke into a quiet laughter and kissed my temples."Have you forgotten about last night?" He smirked. I was confused by what he meant, and like five seconds after, memories came flooding in my head. Shoot! Did we...did we have sex last night?!My eyes remained on Alec's face, and he was still smiling foolishly at me

    Skye's POV"What's happening Alec where are you going?" I scrambled getting out of the pack house as everyone were walking everywhere in chaos."An informer told us that Erin is alive and is being held hostage. We're gonna dispatch some warriors in the enemies area to see if it's true." He said, walking past me as he commanded the warriors to get ready."Alec, Nathan isn't in his room. I'm afraid that he went there first to save her." I said, and he cursed in the air."That stupid moron." He rubbed his temples, "I'll go with them. And I'll make sure to bring both of them back here safe and sound." He said, and quickly took off with the rest of the warriors. Not even bothering to bid me goodbye.I know why he was absorbed about this. One because Nathan and Erin was involved, but I'm sure he was mostly pressured because he knew Erin is pregnant, and it was his child, or at least that's what he knows."Are they gonna be okay?" Keira asked, as we both watched them go into the forest, morp

And just like before, I was back again at the huge stairs."Something isn't right." I whispered lowly, then heard a crack behind me. I looked back and saw nothing, but when I turn to the front again, there were three old women. Their hair were gray and dirty, and their fingers were like bones and all. They were giving off strange energy that I can't quite comprehend.Then in my peripheral vision, I saw a burly bald man, he was grinning, as he looked down at me from upstairs."Where is my mate and my friends." I asked, but it was just dead silence. Only the breeze of the cold air passing through the wind

    Skye's POVI woke up to the unbearable noise I was hearing. There were growls, and I could feel the cold surface as it touched my exposed skin.I struggled to open my eyes, my vision was blurry, all I saw were people fighting not far away from me."Alec..." I called out his name as I saw a figure that greatly resembled him.Soon enough, only one remained standing and the guy with the same physique as Alec walked to me in a hurry, but when he got closer, his face also got clearer."Skye, can you get up?" Nathan helped me up, I looked at him confused why he was here, and when my vision got better, I was bewildered as to how I ended up in the forest again."Alec! Where is Alec?!" I questioned, grabbing hus arms, but he just returned it with a sad look, which he quickly replaced with gruff, trying to appear strong."Alec is inside fighting them off. We have to hurry Skye. We don't have enough time." He said."Hmm-ummm..." I heard someone groaning behind me. I looked to my side and didn't

    Skye's POV"Stay put." I said to Alec, pushing hus shirt up so I can see all his visible wounds.I covered the bleeding parts with my hand, and it started glowing immediately, and when the light subsided, I also removed my hands to check if the wound has closed."You know healing magic?" Alec asked. I nodded my head, pursing my lips as I helped him get up from the ground."Let's go." I ushered him out, and we ran into the forest, we didn't stop until we were far enough, and made sure that our surroundings was safe. "Can you still keep going?" I asked Alec, and he bobbed his head up and down, but I could tell that he was still under an incredible pain.I looked around and spotted a small cave, it was hidden, surround by bushes. "We can stay there for the night." I pointed to the cave, he looked at the direction I was pointing at, and looked at me apprehensively."Will you be comfortable sleeping the night here?" He asked, and I sighed inwardly. So that is what he was thinking? He was

But even with their warm expressions I still couldn't bring to make myself smile, it's just... I've fucked up big time. And a lot of warriors lost their lives because of me. I understood what Skye meant, but I know that I'm still somehow responsible for this."You made it! I knew you were alive. I knew it." Keira ran to Skye, with dried and fresh tears on her face."Shhh... I'm here now. Where's Nathan? Is he and Erin alright?" Skye asked, then everyone around went silent. Keira's tears flowed even more, biting her lips.With that reaction, I could tell there was something going on."Skye, Alec...I have something to tell you." Keira bowed her head, her body shivering violently."Nathan's didn't make it." She said, and for a moment I feel like my world was spinning. Nathan didn't make it?"What?! No, no he was fine the last time I saw him, he kept moving him and Erin. Wait, Erin, is

I rubbed his shoulders comforting him as he receive such a devastating news."So what are you telling me that my parents are good as dead?! Is that it?!" Alec yelled, me and the doctor were both startled at his reaction, but I quickly grabbed his hand when he was about to grab the poor doctor's collar."Alec stop," I pulled at him stronger, "Alec!" I exclaimed, getting his attention as his dilating eyes gradually steadied as he breathed rapidly."I'm here, just breath Alec...breath..." I pacified him. After Nathan's death, Alec has been unstable, he would burst out easily, throw things around, he's become hot tempered. And because of the impending war we are about to have with the rogues thay is closely looming, I'm aware that he had a lot of burdens in his mind right now, so he must be under a lot of distress.Hilda

    --Alec's POV--I walk inside the house with whirlwind of thoughts going in my head.I thought I already recovered. I tried my hardest to forget about her, but every time I wake up, every time I take a walk and walk alone in the night, all I can ever think is her.And now, this letter arrived, just in time to wreck the wall I tried so hard to build."Hey, what's up with you? Why do you look angry?" Keira asked, walking out of the kitchen. I could smell the scent of baked cookies lingering in the air and figured she must've barged in her for more than an hour."Why are you here?" I asked, narrowing my eyes down at her. "Why are you in a bad mood?" she asked back."I don't want to talk about it," I said, and went up the stair and into my room, closing the door loudly with a bang.I dropped my body on the bed and immediately felt worn out. My mind was exhausted and without even realizing it, I fell asleep quickly. When I opened my eyes and looked at the window it was already dark. "Wha

Ella came to my desk with a look in her face that says she just heard some juicy gossip."What is it this time,""Oh come on you have to sound more energetic than that, this one's real good," she said, and I rolled my eyes, totally not believing her."Ok fine, if you're not interested then I won't tell you," she huffed crossing her arms.I took a glance at her and sighed, I put my pen down and with a honeyed smile I asked her, "Just tell what it is you want to say," I said, and she was being stubborn at first but soon caved in and let me tell you whenever her mouth opens it really takes a long time before it closes again."Have you heard of that cold professor I thought you had a fling with?" My body froze, knowing the person she was talking about."You mean Alec?" I muttered his name lowly, afraid that he'll pop up the next second I say his name aloud.Alec stopped coming to school, and because of that, we got

    The sun rose high up in the sky. Alec set up a tent for both of them and slept through the night at the beach. When he woke up, he moved his hand beside him to pull Skye close to him, but he didn't feel any sign of her anywhere.He abruptly got up looking around, and seeing the empty space beside him, his heart skip a beat. He got out of the tent fast and searched the area for her. He sniffed the air, and when he got a whiff of her scent, his nerves instantly started to calm down. "Where is she?" he looked around, and not too far away, he spotted her dressed in white dress, sitting on the sandy beach, leaning on a tree. Alec slowly walked to her, as if any moment she'll disappear if he doesn't get to her on time. "Skye!" he yelled.Skye looked up to him and smiled, "You're up early," she said, and got up dusting off her dress, but unexpectedly Alec came to her and gave her a tight hug. "I thought you left me," Alec's voice was broken, he hid his face in her neck, pulling her clo

    🌹Third Person POV🌹Skye looked at Alec who was walking ahead of her to the car. She was thinking if what the lady there said bothered him, but she chose to stay silent, not wanting to add more to his obvious signs of frustration.When they got inside the car, Alec was still quiet, until half way on the road, he glanced at Skye and took a deep breath. "Skye, you know how much I care and love you right?" He asked, and Skye nodded her head at him, smiling softly. "Of course,""Good, cause I want you to know, everything I did and will do, it's because I love you, but don't ever think that the consequences of my actions is your fault," he muttered, gently brushing Skye's hand with his. Skye looked at him, and a trace of remorse washed over her. She can't help but blame herself. She can't help it, she's the only reason why Alec refuses to move on with his life, she thought when they meet again he would change, even just a bit, but he was exactly the same person he was five years ago.

    "So where are you taking me?" Skye asked, looking out of the window. Im sure she was in awe since we never really got out of town. It's probably her first time seeing this kind of bustling city. "How about we go for some rides at the theme park?" I asked her. "What's that?" "It's machines that is shaped like a plane or cars or other stuff, Ooh! And there's also a rollercoaster, I'm sure you'll like them," I said, and she looked really puzzled which made me chuckle. "If you say so. I trust you," she said, smiling while releasing a heavy breathe of air. ..."Ummm...Alec, is this it?" Skye said, sticking to my side like a glue. "Yeah, don't you like it?" I asked her, and she shook her head, "Of course I like it, I just didn't think there would be this much people around," she said, and I was overwhelmed by her innocence to these kind of things. We first tried the carousel and she kind of liked it, but Skye was swaying left and right, unable to maintain her balance. The kids were

    "Skye,""Hmmm?" I reached to her, circling my arms around her waste, hugging her deeply."What is this? Did you do something wrong? Why are being so clingy all of the sudden?" She asked, and I chuckled silently. I buried my face deeper into her neck, smelling her heavenly scent."Alec,""Yes?""What do you think about going on a road trip with me this weekend?""Tomorrow?""Yeah,""I guess I'll be a bit busy, but I'll make time to do it with you, how's afternoon? Sounds good?" I asked, and I could see her face lighting up as she nodded her head. ..."W-what??? Is that...""Shit! It's Skye, is that really you Skye?" All eyes turned in my direction as Keira, Derek and Evan looked in my direction with question in their gaze."It's me," Skye softly spoke, looking at them with a gentle gaze, her eyes sparkling with tears.I know she misses Keira very much, and O wasn't wrong, because they soon got into a tight hugging session, and of course the two dimwits joined them.

    I could feel the sun hitting my face. I groaned in discomfort, wanting to close the curtain but it was too far away and I was too lazy to get up such early in the morning.I travelled my hands around, wanting to see if Skye was still around in the bed but I couldn't feel her anywhere."Skye?" I mumbled groggily lifting my head up to see that I was in my room.Not in my current room but in my old room, my room back at my old house. What the fuck is happening?I jolted up and when I looked around I was dumfounded when I realized it really was my room back then.But...how? How did this happen.[Knock! Knock!]"Hey, mom told me to remind you that we're going out of town today. So you better pack your things up or we'll leave you behind," I was shocked when I saw Nathan standing at the door. "Y-you're alive?" I pointed at him.He narrowed his eyes down at me, "Do you wish I'm dead you prick? Tsk!" He clicked his tongue, banging the door close, leaving me totally confused.I looked out o

    "Alec...wait for me, hey," she grabbed my hand making me turn back to her."Are you angry?" "What do you think?""Is it about what I said in the room?"I didn't answer her, and just eyed her up and down before crossing my arms, huffing."Come on, I only said that because in true sense you're still my professor, and everyone will bad mouth us if we start telling everyone that we're together," she said. I thought about it for a while and sighed. She does have a point."Fine, I forgive you, but you have to make it up to me," I said, pouting my lips, pretending to be sad. When she laughed at the stupid face I made, I laughed along with her, circling my arms in her shoulders as we got out of the hospital."By the way, did you really pay for everything already?" I asked her."No," she replied and I looked at her as she smiled cheekily at me."So let me guess, I'm the one who's paying for the hospital bills?" I asked."Of course, you owe this family too much, and besides your also gonna d

    "How did this happen? How are you here without needing any help? Just how did you manage to resurface?" Freya bombarded her with questions as I made food for us since Skye said she was hungry. "I have my ways Freya, and how are things back in Hephalis, the last time I heard is that there are people who wants to go against the order?" she asked, and my brows furrowed at their conversation.What are they talking about?"We subdued them, not long after your disappearance," Freya answered her, and Skye nodded, smiling at her, "That's good to hear," she said. As I looked at Skye, I noticed some sort of mark in her chest. "What is that?" I neared her as I let the meat boil for a few minutes."What's what?""That," I pointed at her chest and noticed a petal pattern."Oh this, this is nothing. This girl must have got this tattoo," she said, referring to Ella.Alec noticed the odd behavior of Skye, and even Freya's brows scrunched together when she noticed the mark, and her eyes turned into
