When I got home, I ended up crying myself to sleep. The moment I woke up and got ready for classes, I ended up having bloated eyes due to my dumb self crying. Which just made Clarise and Vinny(Clarise's daughter who is about my age) worry about me a lot and led to a nonstop hot-seat interview which wouldn't have stopped if I didn't have classes that day so, thank goddess I had them. And as time went on, in the daytime I had those little banter moments with Xander that I have grown to love. For Example, there was this time when me and him were tasked to buy some snacks while there weren't any civilians yet at the station, and as he has finished the most paper workload in the rest of them, he ended up the one doing all the grocery work. He fought with whatever snacks we should pick, that jerk being the selfish ass that he is actually got some great taste, the snacks that he wanted to pick were those that I liked. "Hey kid, this is way better, cheese-flavored stuff can never go wrong i
Xander's POVLife hasn't always been that easy for me, though I survived through all of those hardships, I can't deny that my looks did help me make life easier, but together with those advantages were a fair amount of annoyance and more nuisances in my life. Because for every decision you make there will always be a consequence. That's how karma goes.Xander 16 years ago~They're fighting again. I thought to myself. Can't they at least fight tomorrow, today's my 6th birthday. Kids in my class are always so happy and excited when their birthday comes. But then, why am I not like them? I thought seemingly questioning myself.I don't even know who's at fault here anymore. My Mom cheats on my Dad. While my Dad abuses my Mom. I went closer to my bedroom door and peeked through the small opening gap there. There I saw my father beating up my mother. Again. Though it wasn't a new sight to see, I could never get over how painful that must be for my mother."Please, please stop. I'm sorry.""
Xander's POVI wiped my face with my right hand from disbelief and grief. We had, we had a child and we didn't even know about it. He was gone before we even got the chance to rejoice in his existence. We didn't even have the chance to try... Why... why do the people around me keep dying and leaving me? Am I really that unwanted?Sasha was still crying in front of me, from a mixture of emotions; sadness, guilt, shame, horror, and grief. Our child, our dear child... I went beside Sasha and hugged her to console her. Just what kind of fucking game was faith trying to do with my life!Just when I've finally moved on from that toxic life I had lived. Just when I've finally moved on from the deaths of my grandparents. Just when I've finally moved on from the longing I had for Sasha for such a long time. And just when... Just when I've finally learned to fall in love again after all of those things I went through. Just when I've finally met Lilan...After she seemed to calm down, we said ou
Lilan's POVOh, my goddess. Oh, my freaking goddesses. Wait, no, I'm so sorry my dear goddesses, your royal highness. Just what is that bloody bastard playing at?! Goddess, I feel my face, no my whole body turning a bright shade of red with what he just did! Xander Evans just freaking kissed me! And he even dared to smirk at me after what he did?! And I couldn't even do anything now that he was holding my hand on our way back to the station!But then there I noticed, that energy, that oh-so-familiar energy that I could sense even from a mile farther than me. Ryan, that's Ryan's energy! Oh no, how could I have ever forgotten? Ryan is the next lycan king of all werewolf packs. Ryan, my one and only betrothed. Ryan, my mate. Ryan is a werewolf, who is widely known for their possessive behaviors. And Ryan, who has been following me ever since he came here...Oh dear, how could I have ever forgotten when it's a worry that I always have and carry every waking moment of my life here on Eart
"My decision is..." I sighed before I continued. "Xander, can I and Ryan talk for a moment privately?" "What? I-- Okay then. I'll just be at the café up front, got it?" I simply nodded then he walked towards the said cafe. When I know he was finally out of ear reach, I faced Ryan."Lilan, is something wrong? Why couldn't you say that you are engaged and can't be with him? This, this engagement, you know the great impact it will bring to your kingdom with whatever decision you're going to make right? I mean, there isn't even a decision you have to make here. I'm your mate! We have our mate bond. Our very own special bond, just between the two of us." He said. I sighed. He knew what was going through my head already. When I said my last words, he already knew what the decision was. "I'm so sorry, Ryan. I really am, and this pains me as much as it pains you..." I said teary-eyed already. "NO! You don't know just how painful this is! You don't because you know you have someone to catch
"What are we? Are we finally in a relationship?" I asked. My heart pounding so hard in my chest full of nervousness, of fear for the uncertainty of whatever his answer may be. "Of course. What did you think my answer would be? I mean do you want us to be in a relationship? Or was I just miscalculating things? Did I get the wrong signals? What? Because I thought you also love me back. And, and..." He answered stammering, looking at me worriedly frantic which made me sigh loudly in relief and just nodded at him. "I do, Xander. I also love you, a lot." He held both my hands lovingly and held them close to his face kissing them softly. "I'm sorry if I have never said or done anything worthy enough to assure you that I love you. But I do. I love you very much, Lilan." He said looking at me lovingly again then he cupped my face in both his hands to which I leaned my face."I love you. I do." He repeated again and again. Then he leaned towards me to kiss me slowly. Unlike earlier when our l
When the car came to a stop, I saw this huge two-story house with a black Lamborghini parked up front. We both walked toward the front porch. Xander noticed that I was fidgeting beside him in the unfamiliar place we were at. "Hey, are you okay?" He asked his eyes full of worry. "Oh, yeah, yeah. Of course, just that, where are we again?" I asked nervously. "Oh, I'm sorry. It just slipped my mind. Well, welcome to my humble abode!" He said cheerily."This is where you live?!" I asked surprised. He just answered me with a passing shrug like it wasn't a big deal. I mean the house is ginormous! "What about the black Lamborghini outside? Is that also yours?" He just answered me with another simple but this time a bit shy nod. He's not even making a big deal about his luxurious lifestyle. I just replied with a whistle."It's nothing. The house was something my grandparents left me. And the car was a gift from my stepfather as, I dare quote, the last act of fatherhood on his side now that I
He kissed me passionately but also gently, so full of love. He was so careful as if I was some priceless treasure that he has been wanting so badly and finally got. Xander lifted me onto the countertop in his kitchen without breaking contact on our lips. He was carefully exploring and ravaging every corner of my mouth. When he broke our contact I instantly flung open my eyes out of disappointment then that strange sound came out of my mouth again when he bit my earlobe. His lips slowly went down to my neck and then to my collarbone, never forgetting to leave a mark. When he reached my collarbone, he made a sound similar to mine, but deeper and much more full of lust. I guess I now finally know his favorite part of my body. My collarbone. He suddenly carried me so I shrieked out of surprise and wrapped my already weak legs around his waist. He was carrying me up the stairs without breaking contact with my body. When we finally reached his room he slammed and rammed me like a hung
Lilan's POVFor some, my life may already seem perfect, but in the world of messed-up royalties constantly being terrorized by death threats, falling for Xander might just be the best choice I've made in life. In a world of monochromic life, your every move is dictated, expected to make the impossible possible, the moment I met him everything changed. He made life seem colorful, interesting, and unpredictable. His smiles felt like a ray of sunshine in my clouded life. I didn't even think that I would be able to live such an amazing life, and it's all thanks to him. Every few months Clarise, Callista, and Richard would sometimes visit our world with the help of Miss Ophelia. When I placed both of my mothers beside each other the similarities were uncanny and I just laughed in disbelief looking at them. Whereas Richard and Father instantly became best of friends. And my dear little baby brother started walking about two months ago. A really energetic kid he is. I also got Callista to
Lilan's POVFor the past few weeks, I've been having these strange dreams, they were so vivid that it felt like instead of dreams they were realities, or rather, memories. And every time I wake up from them or even think about them my head would start throbbing so badly, way worse than when I totally get wasted. and ever since then, I've been taking these pills to help with the throbbing, though it did help me momentarily, it would suddenly make these daydreams about sorcerers, werewolves, and some dark lord shit and my head would start throbbing again from it.And just now I felt a strong electric current-like feeling go through my whole right arm and suddenly a strong gust of wind came out of my hand. That didn't make any fucking sense right? But it does, and it did happen. How?! I do not fucking know! I feel like I'm going crazy with what's happening. With my head throbbing so bad, worse than before, and with all that's happening around me, it will not be long till I'll probably pa
Third Person's POVThe instant Xander and his father, the dark lord, heard the devastating news they instantly ordered the dark lord's chariot to set out towards the battlefield. Once they arrived, they were instantly met by the piercing gazes of the kingdom leaders, all of which were Lilan's close friends. The worst of them was Lilan's best friend and former mate's glares. "You!" Ryan growled. "What the fuck are you doing here, much less with that asshole who, more or less, ordered Wind's death." He shouted. Grief and anger were much evident in his expression. He was trying hard not to just shift and kill the dark lord.The dark lord whistled in amusement at his fury. "Now, now. Ryan how about let's all calm down and be civil here? I did not come here for a fight, I come in peace. I'm just escorting my son here." The dark lord said gently, asserting Ryan's anger. "Be civil?! How can you fucking say that after you fucking started a war that killed thousands, if not millions, of sorc
Xander's POV"Welcome back, my son!" The dark lord, my father cheered. "W-where? How? Why?" I stammered. I had so many questions I don't even know where to start. I cleared my throat before continuing. "First and foremost, I want, no, I need you to stop the war right this instant. Lilan, my girlfriend, is fighting in that war right at this moment." I said. "Wait, wait. Lilan? You don't mean Her highness princess, well now Queen Olivia Lilan Wind, right?" He said seemingly confused. "Yes, that's her," I confirmed."Damn it." I heard him cuss under his breath. "How did you get mixed up with her that you ended up becoming her lover?" He asked. "We met back on Earth. She worked intern at a police station. And things just kind of happened." I briefly explained. "Well, would you look at that? My sworn enemy's daughter might just become my daughter-in-law. How ironic." He said sarcastically looking bitter like he just tasted venom. "That bi-- that kid, she's always been an annoying know-it
Lilan's POVThis is getting way out of hand. The battlefield is drenched in blood, bodies are found in every inch, and dying moans have become a norm. In every whip of your head you'll see dozens, if not, hundreds of bodies now a mix of warlocks, witches, wolves, and fairies. Hope has been long gone in the eyes of soldiers. This has come too far. When night falls and the light of the moon comes and shines over us, that is the time we are being pushed back and even now we can't do anything. We witches and fairies are sorcerers that take life from the sun, while warlocks and werewolves take them from the moon.Our forces are weakening. Hope has been long gone in the eyes of the soldiers. I can't let this continue on. I can't let my kingdom, my world suffer when I could obviously do something for them. I must do something.When the day came, the most I could do was pep talk them into having the will to even fight and not just run off to the field to commit suicide. Encouragement did no
Xander's POVIt has been three days since I heard the news of Lilan setting out for the Fire Kingdom to help in the war. The soldiers patrolling the kingdom including the borders have been quite tense so much that even the villagers have become nervous. They were given the orders to be meticulous with their work, if they have been before they have to do it twice more than before. I've been so worried about Lilan ever since she left that I have been tossing and turning in my sleep. She's out there fighting for the well-being of her kingdom and the people that she cares about while I'm here not being able to do anything for the woman I love. I should be able to do something, no, I have to do something, anything for her. To end her suffering more because of the war.But because of the war, I really can't do much if I were to be caught I'll be hanged in the middle of the town for everyone to see, and have my head chopped off and displayed on the kingdom walls as a tribute to both warrior
Lilan's POVIt's been a few days since I've come back. Throughout I've been busy getting ready for my upcoming coronation, although legally I am already the queen of the Air Kingdom what's left needed is the coronation ball and all those fancy publicity appearances to appease the other nobles. But when I heard the announcement of attacks in the Fire Kingdom, I knew I had to go there instantly. Help them and lead my kingdom and the others to victory and safety. Hence, The coronation was done in a rush. No balls. Not anything fancy schmancy. The following day I immediately ordered the knights to set out on the borders of our kingdom, of course, supervised by the leaders of each of their groups.I instantly set out to go to the Fire Kingdom, together with a few of my own army soldiers, to help with the war. Macy their newly crowned queen and a good friend of mine are leading all of them, together with the leaders of the other kingdoms. A few miles from the kingdom, the winds are crying,
Xander's POVWhat is this place? Wow! it's so beautiful! When I followed Lilan to this weird portal of some sort, I never imagined this would be what was on the other side! I am still following Lilan when we reached some gigantic, medieval period type of castle. This must be the castle that she lives in. She did mention she was a princess of some kingdom. I heard some faint whispers when I looked back I saw some little blue fairies, they shined beautifully when reflected by the sun. They looked like Ice, no, glaciers. Glacier Fairies!WOW, just magnificent! Lilan continued walking straight ahead but I stopped following her at some distance from the castle, still making sure not to be seen by the guards. When she reached the courtyard and was finally noticed by the maids, she greeted them so humbly and happily. By the looks of it, I think even before she came to Earth she's always been kind. And here I was thinking that she came to our world because of some attitude problems and was c
I am now back. I'm finally home. Home to my birth land. My world. My future kingdom.The other side of the passage opened up in the thick forest of ice, found in between the Water and Air kingdoms.When I finally landed both my feet on the other side of the portal, I could hear the familiar buzz of the wings of fairies. The scent of snow came rushing into my nose, carrying the smell of trees and magic.I could feel the peering eyes of the little ice fairies watching me. Well, I couldn't blame them really. It wasn't every day that you would a dimension skipper coming back from whatever world they came from.I chuckled lightly as I heard the faint whispers of them discussing who I was. When I pulled down my hood, I heard their gasps."My goddess! It's the one and only princess of the Air kingdom! She must've heard the news of the war coming from the winds!" They said in whispers in their tiny pitched voices.So I was right, after all, there was indeed war coming. A blood bath. I continu
