"Aunt Kate..., I don't understand what I saw and how is it possible that I could see that?" I said to her but she didn't move or blink but she was staring at me. How is that possible? I placed my right hand on her chest and could not find her heart beat. It was then it hit me. "She is dead". I felt the agonizing pain seeping through my veins and deep into my heart, shattering it into pieces with every passing second. I looked into her eyes and could see how lifless it was. She felt cold, really cold.
Coming close to her face, I called out her name. "Aunt Kate.. Aunt Kate."
"Star, she is gone." Alex spoke.
At that moment it began to snow. The earth seems to be in accordance with the predicament that just happened. Rocking back and front, I screamed "NO
FINITIE'S POV"Were you able to get what I asked?" I glared at Red because I knew she was not able to get what I asked for and I want to know why."No boss, I was not able to get it." she said this while bowing down her head.Bowling my hands into fists on my table, I punched it with so much force, and a hole was formed in the middle of the table. I yelled "....and why was that? What stopped you from carrying out my orders?.......""......It was Alex. He was there……" she stated without blinking.I jabbed the table the second time and a crack sound could be heard. Looking straight at her, I said".
TRACY'S POVWiping my face, I stepped out of the shower with slow and steady steps. I saw my clothes on the tiled floor close to the bed just as I left it. I got dressed. Looking at the mirror, my reflection staring back at me, I looked so pale and empty. My eyes bloodshot from crying. Taking a deep breath, I tied my hair into a high ponytail and was about to leave the room but was stopped midway on my way out. The drawer closest to his bed was closed but the key was left hanging. My curiosity took over me and I moved slowly towards the drawer. With every step I took, I looked back at the door. When I was at the drawer, I knelt down in front of it and tried turning the key but it didn't budge. I tried again but it was fruitless. I removed the key and inserted it back. Turning it to the right and it clicked open, I smiled at myself. I opened the drawer and there was an envelope lying in the da
UNKNOWN POVThe night seemed cold and peaceful except for my troubled mind. Standing at my balcony with a glass of scotch in my left hand, I could smell numerous passers by walking on the pedestrian lane bumping into each other. Not caring who they come in contact with. I could see and hear vehicles honking which expresses the drivers impatience and arrogance. Looking up ,I noticed there were no stars visible in the sky and no moon. Just the thought of Star being with Alex pisses me off. Flashbacks of Alex kissing and hugging Star came through. Gripping the glass in my left hand with so much force, I broke it with my bare hands. I felt nothing, no pain, just the smell of iron . But I was bleeding, not much to take me to the emergency unit but enough to stain my floor. I didn't bother because I heal fast. Nothing is moving according to my plan. Nothing. I feel so frustrated.
STAR'S POVMy mouth was wide open. Responding to Alex ,I said "How is that even possible ? The blood moon, me, my heart. " I was so confused .Alex came close to me "Star, just listen to me. You are a hybrid. "Looking at Alex I had to scream "Like what the fuck is a hybrid? I am a hybrid human with a heart that is the key to a blood moon . How the hell is this making sense."Seriously what the heck. I am a hybrid. Nothing is making sense. I feel like my life just took a wrong turn into another dimension.Sitting down on the bed, I placed my head on both of my hands."Alex, who I'm
STAR'S POVFear gripped my heart. I couldn't form a single word. I was so shocked and scared for fear of the unknown. I couldn't think straight. CELINE was all I could think of.I jumped down from the bed and rushed to the closest stumbling on my own feet. I took out a pair of jeans trousers and a blue top. When I was done, I rushed out of the room towards Alex's room. Placing my left hand on the doorknob, the door swung open revealing Alex on the other side. He too was dressed in all black. A pair of black trousers and a black T-shirt. His hair is a mess on top of his head.He looked straight at me " Star, I know. Let's get the car ".I never did say anything or tell him anything but all I wanted now was to be with C
ALEX'S POVKnocking Celine out was one of the hardest things to do on this planet earth. But I had no choice. I know she wouldn't move a muscle, she is attached to Celine like she was her blood sister. Losing her Aunt Kate and now Celine would be very hard for her.I picked her up and carried her to the car which was parked outside and laid her in the backseat. Ethan climbed into the driver's seat and I followed suit by sitting in the passenger's seat. We reached home, I picked her up and carried her from the car through the sitting room and towards her bedroom. I kicked the bedroom door open as my both hands were occupied. Placing her on the bed, I tucked her in for the night. She turned her face to her left and I sat there watching her as she slept. A frown was visible on her face, I signed, then I left the room.
FINITIE'S POV"How did this happen? I told you to watch over her, and not to let her be a prey." I screamed at Blake in my study. I gave him one simple instruction to look after her.Blake stood at the center of the room with his hands positioned behind him like he was in the military answering his Chief " I'm sorry boss but someone attacked us on our way to her house. It was a lady.""What? A lady attacked a pack of seven skilled and built wolves? Can you listen to yourself?" This is outrageous, can he listen to himself? And that same lady was the person who killed Stella? I know where you were that night. You were at the prom right?"He didn't answer. His silence was enough confirmation. I slammed the table so har
ALEX'S POVStar lost consciousness on our way to the hospital. Her body temperature was rising fast. Ethan was fast and we reached the hospital in half an hour. Ethan rushed into the emergency unit and I carried Star out of the car. He came back with two nurses and a stretcher. I placed her on the stretcher and she was wheeled into the (ER) emergency room. Ethan and I were sitting in the waiting area.Mum came in 30minutes after our arrival and rushed to my side. "How is she?"I stood up and hugged her "No update".Just then the doctor came out of the emergency room and removed his facemask. I think he wants to address us." Are you related to Star?"
With the fire ball still tightly and heavily wrapped in the cotton cloth, it's glow couldn't be seen. Sometimes it doesn't seem like you're gonna make it out alive in some situations, I battled between life and death."Where is the ball of fire you stole?" Alpha Silver slammed, shaking the cage with his heavy boots.Sam released a gaze at Ben, who stared blankly at Alpha Silver, understanding his question. Sam has less life in him now than he had when he lifted Cilia up the other time."I'm asking you, bastards! Where is the fireball you stole?" He chuckled, observing their mood. "If I ask that question again, I promise that one of your heads would go for an answer!" He spat, and the shock on the faces of Sam and Ben turned into grimaces of shock. He smirked, his
W"could this mean?" Ben said, lifting it from the whole."Hold on! Hold on Ben, I think there's something more in there!" Sam jerked, checking the hole with his hands. He couldn't see why it clearly while it was in there, and he had to expand the hole some more."Wow! Come check it out Ben, it's a glass container with a lid."Yeah, go ahead, let's open it!"Ben leaned forward with a quick yell. Sam turned with a puzzled expression. Ben was about to open the container, but he wasn't sure why. After a couple of seconds, his eyes widened as he stared down at the crystal glass container. There was a single yellowish light inside of it. It was an almost steady orange glow. As Sam looked at the container
"Get the fuck out of my way you jerk! Do not bother explaining anything to me, I don't give a fuck about you anymore..! I hate you!!!""It's not what you think Cilia, I was caged!""And what's my fucking business if you were caged? Like I said, I don't give a fuck about you anymore! Get lost and burn in hell for all I care!" I spat. I was even surprised I could utter a word, for there was not even a single strength left in me."I couldn't have left you to suffer like that, Cilia; I was lucked up in a cage, using a magical spell from a witch. I looked for a way to come to your aid, but couldn't find any. But that doesn't matter anymore, I'm here now.""So you expect me to believe such crap?! And who cares if yo
I opened my eyes to vernal sunlight, filtered through the dead leaves. The grassy field was just a few feets away from the riverbank. The sun was warm on my face and the insects hummed around me. With a yawn, I looked up and saw small fluffy clouds of dust dancing across the sky. And then I realized that I was not dreaming, that I was really, truly alive. I woke up to a beautiful sun setting on a blue starry sky. And with a gasp, I saw that I was naked when I looked down to my thighs. Screaming to grab my clothes, I realized that I had been tied to a tree. For a moment I stood in total shock. Then panic began to set in as I struggled to get untied.Realizing I was alone, and that no one would hear me through the dense forest of tall dead trees, I turned around and frantically scanned the landscape for someone, anyone who could help. I turned to the west and for the next several minutes, as I
"What's the matter Cilia?" Melinda came in from the kitchen, with a stream of oatcake on a piece of toast. You could never have too much oat cake. I love eating them.I flinched as I replied, "oh, nothing!""You sure...?""Y-yeah, y-yes yes, I'm okay!""Cilia... You're stuttering""Huh? Stu-, um, am I..? I'm not Melinda, I'm fine.""Hmmmm okay. But I heard you talking to someone, who was that?""Of course not! I'm not. I mean, I wasn't talking to anyone. I was just talking to myself."
Within a matter of days, something had happened. Something more than just a simple rebound. Something to create a whole new level of self awareness. As luck would have it, my life had been conditioned over time to expect such events. Of course, I never asked myself if it was really a gift from God, but I was grateful for it, nonetheless. But it didn't mean I wasn't still feeling the effects, but one thing was certain, that it would pass, and not get any worse.I opened my eyes to a new day, and to the beauty of the world. Everything was still, quiet, and warm. Perfectly still, with just the tiniest hint of summer breeze. As I glanced up, I had a near panic attack. Immediately, I closed them back again as the effect of the sun rays pierced my eyes through the window. Slowly, I opened them again to see a totally different environment. Everything looked completely different. Confused as I
Words failed me as I felt my entire body iced. Oh yeah, it was like I was completely out of this world, entirely! I could see tears welled up in his eyes. Then he brought his head down to the side and said to me in a whisper, "what if I asked you to help me avenge my death, Cilia?""Jeeezzz… Huh? Death...? I don't get it Joey. What do you mean by 'death'?""You won't understand.""Then make me to, because you're scaring me right now!""I know Cilia, and I'm sorry about that. But, you don't have to be scared!" He screamed and paused. The room became extremely cold. I saw tears like blood dripping from his eyes, running down his cheeks, but none was touching the ground.&nb
"Joey.. Joey... Please come fast please! I'm in trouble. I've got to get to you, right now. Help me, please. I can't help the situation here as I don't understand what's going on in my house!""Hold on Cilia, what's the matter? What's happening?""I don't even know! I can't seem to explain anything right now..!. Everything seems to be turning upside down right before my very eyes... Please come over and help me out... Please just come! Please...!!!""Alright, alright, Cilia! Hold on.. hold on please, take a deep breath... Get some fresh air, and I'll be there in a jiffy! Okay girl?I just could not seem to respond after his last words to me, as words failed me completely. My mind could only imagine what
It was a very long and cold night, one of many over the years that make up the story of Rocky and Bea. I'm not entirely sure how to make it any shorter. I woke up quite late, stretching myself out on my bed, trying to reach out to Joey, for I needed his warmth but I was surprised that he wasn't there at my reach."I could remember we slept here together on this bed; where could he have gone to this early in the morning?" I thought to myself, glanced around with my eyes partly open.Then, I got out of bed to take a look around the house as I walked down the stairs, I felt a strange electricity in my body. I paused and looked downwards, in-between my thighs as I felt this hot liquid coming out of me. I pulled my legs apart, and took my time to look at my womanhood. "Oh my God!" I gasped at the sight, and as I touched the liquid,
