Isabelle ✨

First thing first, I awoke to the sun pouring his daily amount of morning love onto my face. Next was a shower. The evidence was transparent as my wrinkled skin flagged along.

I wrapped myself with a towel and answered Periwinkle's call from my cell.

"Be there with breakfast in 30," she said.

"Bet," I responded before she hung up.

She texted right after. "Too early to drink?"

"Nope," I popped the p aloud as I sent her a reply.

Tonight was gonna kill. I was so excited. I could feel the goodness in my toes, telling me I'd have a fun night. I'd cleaned my room and set it up in a spacious manner before my company arrived. I knew Noelle was gonna be late but she'd still show.

I exited my room and flaunted halfway down the stairs, shouting to the kitchen, "Good morning!"

"Morning kiddo!" My dad appeared and looked up at me with a smile. My mom was right behind him with a surprised and teasing face.

"Well, you haven't been like this in a long time. Must be a very good morning

    "Lovebirds," Jennifer shouted to Lucian & Isabelle. She passed through the people and the door, wiggling through the crowd to go update the group. "She's gone with him. His suit is nice as fuck," Jennifer snatched a party cup from Jason. Noelle shouted over the music, "Seriously! I knew he was coming. He always comes for her.""She's hot," Tyler digressed. "Never knew she was that hot.""She hides the ass & tits with those baggy ass clothes sometimes. Well, she hides," Jennifer laughed at her best friend as she corrected herself. "She's gotten a lot better though as you clearly see.""Hey man, don't do anything I wouldn't do," Jason warned Tyler."I'm not going to do anything. She's quiet so she needs a crazy motherfucker like him," Tyler downed the rest of his beer in one swig. "I'm getting another. Want any?" He offered the group. They all nodded yes and resumed talking in his absence. Jason lit a cigarette with one smooth flick of his lighter, stashing it in his suit pocket. He

    LucianI couldn't have went wrong. Her screams filled my mind. I loved the way she panted my name. Or how when she's overwhelmed—by which I mean when she's holding on to her orgasm by a thread from penetration—she just calls me by the nickname she gave me. Her pretty face rested in my hands. I don't know how to describe how I feel. I feel ecstatic. Beyond ecstatic."What are you smiling about?" She asked me sleepily as she dragged her finger across my cheek. "Just you. And how lucky I am that I get to wake up to you," I kissed her temple. "Last night was amazing," she said."Was I too rough?" I panicked. She opened an eye. "Didn't I say it was amazing?""Are you in pain?" I asked."A little but that's besides the point. It was amazing Lucian. Wouldn't trade it. You weren't rough at all. Don't you think I would have asked you to stop if it hurt?" "No need for that sarcasm," I tapped her nose. "I was just making sure.""Yeah. How long can we lie here together?""Something always te

    IsabelleI waited for Lucian to show; I was nervous and I couldn't stop wiggling my fingers. I paced back and forth mumbling many words to occupy myself. "You look like you're trying to practice a valedictorian speech," his voice boomed in my ear. I playfully rolled my eyes at him. "You had me worried."He cocked a brow at me. "Can I not be worried?" I asked. "You're just an over thinker," he concluded. He took my hand into his with a firm, reassuring grip. Just as he was about to say something, Jennifer burst from the parlor door. "Are you lovebirds going to come in? Or you can stand out there and hold hands forever, doesn't matter to me! Can I have your burger?" I laughed to myself, "True Jennifer fashion." I shouted, "Go ahead!" She shrugged in retreat and I could tell what she was probably saying. Something along the lines of 'I'm going to make love to that burger' or something so entirely gross and slutty that I'd laugh my milkshake through my nostrils. "You like this place?"

    Isabelle"Finally joined us," Jen welcomely teased us.Lucian and I took our seats while everyone grabbed a slice of pizza from the tray. Jen spoke to us, "Where have you been?" she questioned as she squinted her eyes between Lucian and me. "We went on a walk," I answered plainly."A nice walk," Jennifer said."A very nice walk indeed," Lucian agreed. Heat rushed to my cheeks. Of course he'd say something like that. I just wanted to shove a slice of pizza in his mouth. Tina commented, "I always knew she'd end up with you. Feisty and firm are the best pair."Noelle burst with laughter, "Tina you're crazy.""No," Jen shared, "you know what they say."Tyler finished Jen's thought by saying, "Opposites attract.""Bingo," Jason nodded."So I'm the only one who believes that's a myth?" Noelle asked. "Maybe you should just wait on your opposite," Tina jested."Or maybe I should start thinking of cat names," Noelle reached for a napkin and pen. "What do you think of Mittens everyone?"

    Early MarchIsabelle"You love to sneak around, don't you?" I nearly jumped out of my skin when Amelia's voice thundered through my ear."You should not scare people. I almost had a heart attack," I reprimanded. "And for your information, I'm just curious.""Yeah right. Your mind wanders about our lord constantly. Only a select few are allowed to be here in the Golden Hall," Amelia said."No wonder it's always empty here," I shared."I don't understand," Amelia shared. "He's infatuated with you but he lets you out of his sight too easily. Anything could happen to you around vicious blood-crazy feigns, yet he gives you free reign," she finished. "It's amazing." I just let her rant. I nodded my head because I was too in shock to respond. "Listen. About trying to suck your blood from your neck," she continued.I disrupted her with the stop motion of my hand, "No need. I knew it was an accident. I was never angry.""Still not fair if you didn't get a proper apology," she rebutted. "I mi

    Lucian "What are you doing here?" I grasped her face between my hands immediately. She showed her flawless smile, making her dimple pop. "I'm here to see you. I miss you.""You should be nowhere near here. They might bomb my palace." I mildly reprimanded her. I couldn't deny that I didn't miss her. I sighed from holding eye contact with her puppy eyes, "Only for today." I kissed her forehead. "Yay," she squealed as she reached for my hand. "You look awesome. Like you came out of an action movie," she said in awe. "Ironman has nothing on you."We both swung our heads to Yuhan's thundering chuckle. "Didn't see you there," Belle said to Yuhan. "Of course you didn't. That's my specialty," Yuhan humbled us."I shouldn't have given you complete power of that ability," I said."Too late to take it," Yuhan shrugged. "How'd you sneak in here?" He directed his question to Isabelle.A question I would like to know as well. I gently turned my eyes to her. "Well," she began with a flutter of h

    Isabelle The only thought that was running thorough my mind was "I hate this." Not much longer of rising early. Graduation is a few weeks away and I'm ready. I got ready in a flash, using minimal effort to find an outfit; I settled on something comfy but cute—tights and a tank top.I made sure to grab some snacks from the kitchen and stuffed them into my backpack quickly. "See you later," I said."We're dropping you off at school today. Did you forget it's your senior parade? You have to wear something cute!" My mom pushed me to the stairs and made me change. I settled on a little pink dress with fluffy pink slides. "Is this better?" I asked with thickness in my voice."Much!" She said with a smile and clasp of her hands. "Let's go," she told my dad who was trying to finish his donut. He grabbed my backpack and the truck keys before we all rushed out the door. "Have you been having too much fun?" My mom asked. "You've barely been home.""I'm fine mom," I reassured her. I took my ph

I'm just going to keep asking until you tell me," Jennifer urged."Nothing," I said again."Monday, you were okay. Tuesday you were half-okay. Yesterday? You were napping in between classes and in another world at lunch. Today? You fell asleep while I was talking to you!" "Maybe I'm just stressed." I argued as I repacked my belongings."You wish," Jennifer persisted. She squinted her eyes at me before dusting herself off and then reaching out to me. I took her hand and helped myself up.She begged, "Please tell me. You know you can."I scoffed as I beat the dirt from my skirt. "You wouldn't even believe the things I'd say.""Try me," she said with folded arms. When I didn't say anything, she took it upon herself to guess the problem. "Are you pregnant?" She asked."No," I dismissed the thought q

    Lucian and his wife had just welcomed their beautiful son into the world. Exhausted and overwhelmed, Lucian knew he had to take advantage of this special moment. He looked into his wife's eyes and quietly said, "I figure now is a good time as any." She looked back at him confused, until he pulled out a small box and opened it, revealing a sparkling diamond ring. His wife was too exhausted to be surprised, but she happily accepted his proposal. "Yes, a thousand times over." Lucian gave her a sweet kiss. Ares was sound asleep; he had been fed and changed and was quietly occupying his crib. "How are we going to ..?" She began to voice her worries but Lucian hushed her. "You're too pretty to be worried, love. Rest," She succumbed in bliss as she drifted off to sleep, still wearing the bedazzling ring on her finger. Lucian watched in awe as they slept; the way their noses curled and how they looked so innocent, he could tell Ares was borne from her. He was so in love with their little

    IsabelleI was still shocked. I was stuck, gawking at the black and white images unfolding in my lap. I was still replaying the technician confirming my doubt."Are you okay?" Lucian asked."I'm two months," I said in shock."Lucian you're not even human. How can you have kids?" "You're mine," Lucian said plainly."That doesn't .. huh." I gave up and slouched into the seat with a sigh."You're going to be okay." Lucian cooed."How am I going to be pregnant in my freshman year of college?" I was going crazy. "It's all just happening too fast.""Calm down. I'm going to be there. For your every need," Lucian caressed my thigh. "It doesn't matter what it is, I will make it happen.""What about class?""I'll come with you and we can sit in my barrier. That way you won't be cramped and you two will be comfortable.""What about after school?" I asked."You worry too much," he kissed my temple. "Just move in.""What?" "You heard me. Move in.

    It was the last day of summer and I was saying goodbye to my friends. I hugged them all goodbye and promised to keep in touch. As I drove away, I looked back at them all standing there and knew that I would never forget the summer fun we had. I was ready to start the next chapter of my life, but I would never forget the memories I had shared with my friends. We had spent the last several weeks together, enjoying our last days of freedom before college. We had gone to the beach, watched movies, taken long drives, went to parties, and even had sleepovers. And that wasn’t everything! We had done a million things. But now it was time for us to part ways and pursue our own paths.I was excited to start college but sad to be leaving my friends. I had grown so much closer Jennifer, Jason, and Noelle over the summer. We had shared so many memories together, and I hated that I had to leave them behind. As I began packing for college, I found myself pulling out the photos from our senior trip.

    The party was over and I hugged just about everyone as they exited my home, thanking them for their support and their gifts and their time.“Honey, we’re going out tonight,” my mom and dad approached me, looking elegant and ethereal.“Wow,” I marveled at mom and dad. Mom wore a green dress that had an embroidered golden shoulder. Dad donned a black suit with a green tie to match; its diamond-shaped pattern fluctuated between green and golden yellow. “Y’all look good.”“Thanks honey. Number’s on the fridge if you need anything,” she gave me a quick peck to the cheek, careful not to ruin her makeup. They grabbed their keys and I watched their retreating figures step out of the door. All alone now. Oh well!I couldn't wait to get upstairs. I dashed to my room, hurriedly discarding my pants. I sighed as soon as they came off. "Nothing like freedom."I kicked the bathroom door in lightly with my foot, setting my bathroom abright when I hit the light switch. "First thing first," I blew a ki

    I stood in line behind my classmates, watching and waiting as the line got shorter. The counselor called my name, "Isabelle Milani Smith." I proudly graced the stage with an unfading smile, ready to shake hands and pose with my diploma.The camera flashed and I walked back to my seat. It was just like we have practiced earlier this morning. I was glad everything went smooth. After a speech from Noelle and Mardrid, we were finally instructed to toss our caps into the air.***********"Honey, we're so proud of you," my mom planted many kisses to my cheek."Okay mom," I tried to get away. "You're embarrassing me.""I'm sorry," she sulked. "Do you like the party? I tried my best.""Yes, it's the best," I beamed. "I can't believe you surprised me." "Your dad will be here soon. He said he had something special for you," my mom shared."Is it a car?" I asked."No," she frowned, "but I'm sure you'll love it." My mom wandered off to the refreshment table, replacing food and refilling glasses

    "Everyone say cheese," Mr. Spay clicked the camera, the flash capturing the smiles on our faces at the end of our senior trip. "I've had a wonderful year with this group. Throughout the fighting, teenage angst, hormonal decisions, and boy trouble, I still wouldn't change a thing. I know you all have a wonderful future ahead of you and I hope you enjoy life's journey there." We cheered for our principal as we boarded the bus with our baggage.I found the back of the bus, sliding next to Lucian. "Look," I took the photos of us out of my memory box and brought them up to the light. "Don't we look great together?" He smiled, giving me a simple yes. "Not big on words today," I teased. "I enjoyed the trip. It was over too quick." Lucian replied, "Time always flies when you're having fun," he gently caressed the love bite from the previous night on my thigh. I blushed in silence as he turned his head to the window to watch the scenery pass us by in a blink outside. "You know you haven't b

    LucianThe council of angels convened to reprimand me for my past transgressions. I stood before them, impassive and unafraid, though I was slightly amused by their haughty expressions and sparkling wings. I could hear their naughty whispers, which seemed to be a combination of disapproval and bemusement. I was ready to accept whatever punishment they deemed fit. The triad of angels governed from behind the wooden podium bench in their assigned choirs, conversing and giving me the evil eye as I paid no attention to them, fancied by the stone golems they'd turned into guardians.The angels conferred amongst themselves for what seemed like an eternity before finally delivering their opening argument."You have been charged with many crimes, the major crime being that you defied God and led a war against him, endangering humans and breaking the heavenly rules. You are also charged with 100 counts of murder, 1 count of kidnapping, 20 counts of unsolicited visiting to the human world, & 5

    I was lying in a hospital bed, my body feeling the numbness of the painkillers and the fatigue of the fight I had endured to get here. My head was throbbing in pain from the constant beeping of the machines surrounding me, I had lost count of the number of times it beeped, but it seemed to be a necessary part of my care. I felt a wave of emotions overcome me as my eyes tried to adjust to my surroundings. I could see my family and friends, all looking worried and scared, their faces a mixture of worry and hope. I wanted to tell them not to worry, that I was okay but my words were stuck in my throat, my voice suddenly feeling so far away. All I could do was lie still and try to relax, knowing that I was finally safe and that everything was going to be ok. I was hoping that one day soon I would finally be able to go home, dreaming that it would be over.My family cleared from my room momentarily as the doctors talked to them.
