His loud heartbeats awaken him from his sleep. Cain opens his eyes in panic. He looks around then; he fixes his eyes on Rosie. She’s sleeping peacefully in his arm. He smiles and strokes her hair gently. He lights a kiss on her forehead.Thump!Once again, his heart throbs. He slowly pulls his arm from Rosie then sits up. He could feel his breath is rushing. He gets down from the bed and puts his clothes on. He walks towards the door passes the mirror. He freezes.He takes a step back and looks at his reflection in the mirror. His eyes color has changed. They’re deep in red now. Dark grey hair falls on his face. He turns and looks at Rosie making sure she’s still sleeping. Yes, she’s still in the same position. He walks to his door and locks it. Then, silver fire emits throughout his body and he disappears leaving Rosie.The silver fire burns in the ruins and Cain emerges from it. He looks around for a second then, walkRelated chapters
The Devil's Embrace The Guardian (2)
She has a black long straight hair. Her bangs fall just above her eyes. She has a pair of grey eyes. Her skin is as white as porcelain. Her lips are bright red. Her nose is in a perfect shape. She has a skinny figure. She’s wearing a strapless white lace T-shirt with long back that falls onto the ground and white lace shorts that fits perfectly on her.There’s a white collared necklace with white pearls on it hanging around her neck. She’s standing with a pair of wedges high boots in the same color as her skin with white embroideries on it. There is a small golden chain binding her right arm and ends at the back of her hand.A golden cross is hanging at the end of the chain tied to her middle finger. A pack of arrows are hanging on her back. She’s holding something in her left hand. Something long and quite big.Cain traces the thing she’s holding. He can’t see it clearly because that thing is hidden by a wind that pierces the golde

I open my eyes. My sight is still in a blur. I stretch my body and a slight pain attacks me. My sight becomes focus in a flash. I raise an eyebrow as I slowly sit up. The pain comes back and I quickly press my back against the wall. I look down at my body and realize I’m naked. I freeze for a while. I forget. We did it, I think to myself. To be honest, I don’t know whether to feel happy or sad. This is confusingI slept with my boyfriend who I’ve only dated for like two or three days. I don’t know if this is a mistake. I look around searching for his presence. He’s not even here when I’m awake. Okay, I have to stop comparing him with the guys in the movies. He’s real and they’re fake.I stay on the same position for a while then; I try to sit up again. I don’t feel any pain all of the sudden. I smile than I get down from the bed. I put on my clothes and walk out from his room. I close the door slowly then, I

Cain spoils me in his arms as we lay on his bed. I’ve changed my dress to his shirt as it’s going to be hard to lay down in dress and yeah, it’s baggy. But, it’s comfortable. I always want to try wearing loose clothes. I mean they’re nice and so cozy not complicated.Cain strokes my hair gently and he plays with it. I lay down on his arm, relaxing. Well, I’m thinking actually about our relationship. Fine boyfriend girlfriend. I get it. But, aren’t we moving on too fast? He still shows his affection to me.Ugh… I have a bad habit of thinking negatively. He’s my first boyfriend after all and I’ve seen how boys play with girls. Gee…I’m not saying boys are naughty. Well, they’re naughty or they won’t be fun. But, some of them pass the limit.“Cain.” I call. I lift my head up to see him. He smiles.“What?” He asks.“Don’t you think our relatio

I reach home at eight twenty. I unfasten my seatbelt and arm my bag. Cain strokes my head and lights a kiss on my cheek. I smile and give him a kiss on the lips before I get off. I wait outside until his car disappears. I turn my back and walk towards my house. When I try to open the door, I realize it’s locked. I sigh. I take out my spare key.I’m glad I always bring it. I unlock the door and step inside. The house is dark. I turn on the lights and drop my bag on the couch. I look around and then, walk towards the kitchen. I take a peak. The kitchen is dark too. I turn on the lights. Nobody seems to be at home. I catch a glimpse of a note attached on the fridge. I take it off and read it.Dear Rosie, mom and dad are going on a date. It’s been a long time since we did it. Anyway, I’ve cooked something for you. Love Mom.PS. Aubrey came after you had gone with your bf. I told her you’re with a friend ;)I roll my eyes and let ou
Last Updated : 2020-12-31The Devil's Embrace Why are you so obsessed?
I’m dreaming about me eating a hundred different cakes, a pile of cookies and doughnuts, and the coolest part is I’m not fat. I love dreams that related to foods and desserts. Don’t say you’re not because obviously, you’re lying. Who doesn’t love free foods and not getting fat while you’re eating them? If you raise your hand, then I will say, “Liars liars’ pants of fire.”Yes, I’m supposed to be continuing my dream until midday. However, I hear a voice that I hate so much from downstairs. I force open my eyes and I sit up. I try to focus my hearing and making sure who it is. And unfortunately, my guess is right. Aubrey is here.Can I just pretend I’m dead? I rummage my hair in distress. I look at the clock and holy mother, it’s only eight. What the hell is she doing coming to my house this early? I wish my house has visiting time like in the hospital. So, you can’t come if it’s

“You’ve finally in the mood to talk?” She asks. Her eyes are sparkling again and she looks lively. Oh no, I fall into her tricks.“Well, rather than smelling you breathe over and over. It doesn’t look like your breathe smells like rose or strawberry right?” I say. She pouts. I giggle silently. She giggles too.“You really like strawberry and rose scent, huh?” She asks. I roll my eyes.“It depends. If we’re talking about cosmetics and bathroom amenities then, yes I love it.” I say. She smiles. “What?”“No. It feels good when you’re talking about yourself. I’m your best friend and I don’t know much about you.” She replies. I chuckle.“Why do you want to befriend me so much?” I ask. I never ask before but, sometimes I just think that she’s really giving her best effort to be friends with me. Sane people would just leave me the moment I i

We walk towards Carmelia Street where everything related to foods and drinks inhabit. It takes quite a walk to reach Carmelia. Along the way, we talk, joke, tease, and laugh with each other. Aubrey is really perky. She even bounces sometimes.She’s truly a charismatic people without a doubt. She knows how to please me and gets me to talk. Well, that’s because she has done a major investigation about me. I bet Faith tells her everything. Not bad. Talking with her is fun now.She knows how to carry on a conversation. So, we end up talking from home until we arrive at Carmelia. I get to know much about her. Maybe now we’re officially best friend.Aubrey and I walk to the supermarket across Tavern. As soon as we enter, Aubrey takes the trolley and dives towards the chips section. I laugh looking at her. Even other people laugh. She’s so weird. I follow her to the chips section.When I reach it, Aubrey has already stuffed the trolley with three

Stephanie Meyer did a great job. She’s an incredible author. I like her works.So, yeah I like the movie. But, to watch it until you know all the lines. It’s pretty crazy. Well, Aubrey doesn’t memorize the lines but I do. It’s the result after watching it like a thousand times.Aubrey skips the beginning where an animal is being chased. I think it’s a bambi. Sorry, if I’m wrong. Before Bella even speaks up, I utter her line in my head. So, I can’t bring myself to regret the decision to leave home. I would miss Phoenix. I miss the heat, I think to myself.She says the exact same line. I’m cool, huh? I glance at Aubrey. She’s watching it like this is the first time she sees the movie. I sigh.

The Devil's Embrace Doors of Truth (2)
“Are you me?” I ask. She tilts and then, smiles. She does look like me. But, she has more confident and somehow different.“I’m you.” She says. “But, I’m the truth.” I raise an eyebrow.“You’re the truth?” I ask as she’s saying something really weird. She giggles.“And you’re the lie.” She says.“You mean I’m a liar?” I ask. She’s terribly rude. If only she doesn’t have the same face as mine, I might have thrown a punch on her face.“No. Lies create you.” She says. Now, she gets me confused.“What is that supposed to mean?” I ask. She chuckles.“All you need to do now is wake up.” She says. I raise my eyebrows.“I’m awake.” I say. She shakes her head.“No, you’re not. Wake up.” She says as she walks closer to me. Then, she grasps my shoulders tightly
The Devil's Embrace Doors of Truth (1)
I feel really dizzy. My head feels like it’s going to burst out any second. I try to move my body but, it’s aching all over. I feel like my bones are cracking. (Sigh) I’m getting tired. Hmm? Cold?I try to feel my hand. My palm is touching something cold. Something is cooling my cheek down. I slowly open my eyes. A sharp pain comes into my head right when I try to move my eyelids. But, I don’t back down. I force them open. I have it hard just to open my eyes. Pity me.When my eyelids are fully opened, I move my eyes and blink deliberately trying to clear my vision. It’s blurry but, I can see a corridor and a couple of doors. I shut my eyes harshly and then, I open it again. A little by a little, my vision is clearing. I let out a long breath. A gas comes out from my mouth.I slowly get up. I sustain my body with both of my hands on the floor. Where am I? I think to myself. One thing for sure, it’s freezing in here and I was ly
The Devil's Embrace Aubrey's Worry
Have you ever coincidentally fallen asleep on your desk? I bet you have. And that is not sexy. I feel a sharp pain at the back of my neck down to my spine. I want to move from my position but, I don’t think I can do it. It hurts when I try to move. I think the air conditioner has been cooling my skin until I catch a cold. This is absolutely lame.I shouldn’t have fallen asleep on my desk. Well to be exact, I shouldn’t have written my journal at night. What I mean by night is my sleeping time. If I want to write it, the least I could do is to write it while chilling on my bed.So, when my eyes close by themselves, I have already on my bed. Anyway, how do I move? That’s the most urgent question right now.I feel like an idiot somehow. My eyes are wide opened and I’m totally awake. But, here I am not moving just spacing out at my window. Well, I could be considered pondering but, I think Aubrey can see through me. So, I better try to f
The Devil's Embrace The Movement From Both Sides
Fire is raging in the valley at the both sides of the stone pathway. Voices of hatred and regrets are floating in the air. The cries from the deaths are echoing. The heat will be unbearable if Alexis was a human. Luckily, she’s not.She walks down the path like nothing is happening in the valley. She hums as she strolls with her hands on her back. She’s feeling very happy right now. So, the fusses of the deaths don’t bother her that much as before.Gradually, her steps become lighter and lighter. She bounces towards the gateway. Yes, the burning fire under the arch up ahead is the entrance towards hell. Alexis passes through the gateway and walks slowly to the edge of the stone path.She spreads out her black wings and flies into the air. She continues to hum as she looks at the scenery under her. It’s an endless pit with fire burning. There are some cliffs that she can stop at however, she keeps going.There’s really nothing to enjo
The Devil's Embrace Hiding Secrets
I wake up in shock. Cold sweats stream down to my body. I exhale a deep breath and wipe them off. I’m not quite sure what I was dreaming of to give me a shock. I look to the left. Aubrey is sleeping quietly while hugging a bolster. I sigh. It’s useless to wake her when she’s asleep.I get down from my bed and reach for the curtain. I take a peak from the window. The night has fallen and it’s raining quite heavy. It was sunny in the morning. I guess it’s still rain in the summer. I close back the curtain and make my way to the stairs.Although there’s the sound of television, the lights are off. I bet dad falls asleep on the couch while watching the TV. I walk slowly towards the couch. Yep, he’s there. I pick up the remote and turn the TV off. It becomes quiet. Only the sound of the ticking is heard. I look up at the clock. It’s pointing at ten.Crap. I must’ve fallen asleep in the afternoon to be able to wake up at
The Devil's Embrace Chaos At The Judgment Road (2)
When the arrow disappeared between the dark clouds, the sky gurgles. Cain is startled by the sound of it. Altarria smiles when she sees her power is working. Bright circles with ancient symbols carved around it emerge on the sky. They are scattered to every corner of the sky. The downpour suddenly stops and everything becomes quiet.It makes Cain confused. He tries to focus his hearing but, nothing comes to his ear. Cain raises an eyebrow. Suddenly, loud sounds of thunders ring throughout the Judgment Road. Dozens of lightning strikes down from the circle. The Judgment Road is roamed by lightning. Rainstorm breaks off and all the lightning is striking down continuously.They destroy the buildings, the roads, and the ruins. They wipe off everything. Altarria smiles gloriously as there’s no way Cain could survive from this lightning. One strike and it’ll end his life. “Die!” She exclaims. She laughs happily. After a while, the lightning stops ho
The Devil's Embrace Chaos at The Judgment Road (1)
The ruins are hindering his vision but, he’s sure that someone is walking towards him. He walks towards the wall and leans on it as he waits for that soul. He closes his eyes.‘Where’s everybody? This place is so terrifying.’A guy, he thinks to himself. Not his favorite subject for hunting but, it’ll do him fine right now. He’s kind of in a bad mood after reminiscing his past. So, anyone is fine. The footsteps are getting closer and a sly smile is carved on his face. He opens his eyes when he feels the soul is nearby. He looks at his diagonal and a young boy is walking with his eyes welled up with tears. Cain stares at the boy. He could see through the boy’s heart. He died without knowing anything. That makes him unwillingly died. He’s going to dwell here for the rest his life either way, he thinks to himself.Cain walks silently towards that boy and attacks him from behind. He pierces through his life source from behin
The Devil's Embrace The Past
Cain ponders at the top of the building where he used to sit at. Wondering and staring at the Judgment Road seems to be his habit. Not a hobby. And definitely not in his top ten favorites to do list. He’s been looking down at the same view for over a hundred years and has been walking at the same world since he turned eight.He still remembered the first time his mom visited him, his real mom. She was beautiful and kind. The kindest woman he’s ever known. From the moment he laid eyes on her, he felt something strong like a bond. He was scared because her appearance wasn’t of a human.But, her smile sent warmth throughout his body. She didn’t force him to get close to her but instead, she let him came to her on his own accord. She came to see him every time Cain called out to her. They would spend time together until Cain fell asleep. Of course, he kept it a secret from his step-mother. It took a while but, Cain realized that she was his mom. H
