“What are you looking for?” Cameron asked popping out from the least place I expected him to pop out from- the tree branch. It was as though he had been watching my entire move which made me annoyed but I pretended as though I didn't know anything.
Even though we knew each other from the past, he was probably just a fling to the old beauty and I didn't trust him anymore especially with what Ziyah told me. It might sound a bit weird but I felt Ziyah words in my soul, I believed she wouldn't lie to me no matter what. And besides, in the past Ziyah and I talked mostly about useful things and fun but most memories I had with Cameron were always explicit. We never really talked about useful things which made me suddenly distrust him coupled with what Ziyah said to me. What if he was just taking advantage of me.
Everything did not seem right. Ziyah had not seen me for four hundred and eighty years, how did I suddenly

I woke up as early as 5am, took a shower, brushed my teeth and dressed in the most colourful bright yellow flawless gown in my closet. I had planned something special today to impress Cameron.I tiptoed to the kitchen and started mixing flour and eggs, I wanted to make breakfast today to thank Cameron for cooking throughout these days with me, I knew it was hard and I wanted him to recognise my appreciation. I followed the best recipe in my favourite cooking book and made sure not to add a lot of sugar in the pancakes.When I was done, I arranged the dining room and knocked on Cameron's room. I didn't get a response immediately. I tried again and I heard a voice behind the door, “What do you need?”I cleared my throat nervously, “I-i made breakfast, for you. I mean f-for us” The door opened immediately and I was met with a shirtless hot man with droplets of water dripping off his shirt, “You made breakfast?!” he chuckled runni

“Are you enjoying the ride?” Asked Cameron glancing at me through the rear mirror, i nodded in response and gasped when I saw tall buildings even prettier than my own house. It literally looked like the mansion that were spoken about in my novels but now I was seeing them for real!“Cameron!” I pointed at a restaurant across the road. I had never eaten in a restaurant before, I wanted to know how it felt. As if reading my thought, he drove in front of the restaurant and parked the car in the parking lot along with the other unmoving cars. It seemed like standing near the unmoving cars was safe.I was awed when I jumped out of the car. The restaurant was perfect. It had colours on its signboard like ‘Nondo's restaurant’ with shiny colours on it.When we entered the restaurant, I immediately went to grab a seat by the window side not minding the stares that were given to me by the people I didn't know. I ignored their stares and smiled whe

“Although your wife and the baby is in a good shape, you should've registered her for antenatal so she can learn how to prepare psychologically on how to be a mother and how to take care of a child, your wife is six months and two weeks pregnant, her delivery date should be on the 16th of December, should I make arrangements in advance sir?”Cameron nodded, “Yes doctor.”“Would you like to see the baby's gender?” The doctor asked fixing his glasses.Before Cameron could reply I grabbed his wrist, “No doctor, we would like for it to a surprise”The doctor nodded, “Okay then. Should I enroll you in an antenatal class or-”“Please do doctor, that would be very helpful, I'd like to associate with other pregnant women, they can probably relate with me best.”The doctor wrote something in a sheet of paper and then handed it over to me which I took gr

When I entered my room I saw a pretty female with rose-shaped green tatoos on her hips- the woman was completely naked on my bed. But she was really small, like a little girl. She looked like the woman Ziyah turned to in my memory, except this time she was really stark naked.“Ziyah!” I called. How did she shift into a human without wearing a thing?I tapped Ziyah legs and her eyes opened immediately. She looked down at her naked body and grinned, “Finally! I can transform back to my human form!” she smiled and ran her hand through her smooth skin happily. I winced at how shameless she was and sighed, “Put on a dress, it's not appropriate if you walk around naked”She groaned and looked down at her body, “But I just got my human form back please let me admire it a little while longer”“You can admire your body whenever you take a shower, for the meanwhile put on a dress,

The door opened revealing Cameron holding a tray of food? I could tell it was food because as he walked in, my nostrils were filled with the aroma of several meals- Rice, sandwich, chicken and potatoes. Ever since i woke up from the horrible- nightmare i made no effort to move despite the fact that underneath the blankets i was stark naked. It wasn't that i was doing it on purpose, i was just really frightened- shaken up by that- nightmare. I refused to believe that really happened to me but at the same time it felt so real i couldn't think of it as an ordinary nightmare.Before, i wanted to get my memories back badly but now that it seemed my past were filled with Sadness, pain and suffering. If the pain would be what i would remember then I'd rather not remember a thing at all.“Love, you should eat, it's 8:30pm already you know” Cameron said settling down the tray on the nightstand beside me.

When I awoke, my body was cuddling Cameron. I wanted to scream when i felt something poking against my stomach from under the blanket. I moved my hand from Cameron's chest in embarrassment and glanced under the blanket. My breath hitched in my throat and i forced back the urgent need to cough. I moved Cameron's hand off my shoulder and silently slipped off the bed. Then i looked around but there were no sign of my clothes. Only Cameron's shirt, jeans and shorts.Remembering i was in Cameron's room stark naked the entire i felt even more embarrassed. I grabbed Cameron's shirt lying miserably on the floor. It covered my chest to my lower thigh. Without any more glance at Cameron's face, i literally ran to my room next door while holding my breath until i successfully entered my room and locked it. Thankfully, Ziyah was sleeping in her snake form on the bed, unaware of my presence.I scurried to the bathroom and locked the door. I glanced at my a

CHAPTER SIXTEEN“Do you like it?” Cameron asked as i choosed an oversized red gown i could fit into despite my protruding belly. “Yes, I'll have just this one, thank you” i said and he nodded picking several skirts and huge sweaters. “We're nearing October, you'll need one of these” his gaze went to the sweaters and i silently thanked him.After buying what i needed, i went to another dress category and smiled when i saw a green shiny dress with short sleeves and knee-length. I immediately felt Ziyah would like it.I checked my price and written on it was 100 dollars but i wasn't sure whether that meant the dress was cheap or expensive. I quickly went to Cameron who was busy picking several jackets from the rack. “Cameron, is this dress expensive or not? What does the price tag means?”Cameron glanced briefly at t

“Trust you?” I moved out of his grip and stared at the oceans. One mistake and i could die. I might not know a lot of things but i definitely didn't want to die in such terrifying manner.“I've been teleporting for a long time, i promise there won't be any mistakes ”“Teleporting?” I'd never heard of that word before.“Teleporting means to travel from one point to another without physically crossing the distance”I nodded in understanding. Teleporting was just like he did before. He made me close my eyes and when i opened them i was here.He already teleported here along side with me earlier, it would not hurt to try it again.“Fine” i closed my eyes but he still covered my eyes with his hands. “Why do you need to cover my eyes when I'm already closing them?”“If you see me teleport you'll definitely remember how to do it and i

“You're probably in a better place now. I saw your will. You gave me everything you had. You clearly knew you would die soon.” I said while forcing back a chuckle as i stare at Kelly's headstone. “I sold everything and gave it away as charity and donated to a few scientists to find the cure to your disease so other patients can hopefully recover.” “I-i hope you're happy with what i did.” I said. I put my hands in my jean pocket and turned to leave when i saw a familiar face knee on my grave while holding a bunch of flowers in his hands. “Bella..” he sighed. “I know i am not worthy to come here but please forgive me. I-i am sorry i forced you to kill yourself. I-i only wanted to scare you, I didn't know.. i didn't know my boys would go too far.. I-i am really sorry.” I was beyond surprised. Wasn't this Jarrod, my human ex-lover? He really had some guts. After killing me he came here to ask forgiveness. I laughed, “Jarrod.” He shivered and turned to look me. His eyes widened and h

“Are you sure you're alright?” I asked for the hundredth time after Kelly started complaining of an intense stomach pain from the coffee shop even when i helped her rest on her comfortable bed. I felt really bad for her.“Should i take you to the hospital?” I asked and Kelly moaned painfully, “What for? So they can tell me I'm running out of time and prescribed some horrible drugs destined to make me choke and kill me?”“Fine. Just stay in bed and I'll wake you up later to do some yoga exercises, perharps it'll ease the pain.”After a whole painful week of having to listen to Kelly's whining, i felt even more scared. She refused to go to the hospital and what more? Insists she will die soon.“Let's go on a stroll and we can even bump into your lover. Isn't that nice?” I asked and Kelly eyes lit up. “Yeah!”Halfway into the stroll, i w

There's just been an accident..”My eyes caught a familiar face staring at me angrily from across the street but before i could take a closer look, it was gone.Suddenly i heard a loud cry, “Old lady be careful!”A taxi pulled over in front of Kelly. Thankfully, I was fast enough to pull Kelly out of the way.“Thank you!” i said to the teenager who alerted Kelly and I.“We

I took a step closer to Kelly with a smirk, “Of course i treated you sincerely but i couldn't fully trust in the matters of the heart because i loved Cameron back then and i couldn't bear losing him. To be honest, you never made me feel secure and i was insecure about my looks and body too. I thought Cameron would forget me when he finds a prettier lady.. oh how petty was i!”Kelly sniffed, “To be honest, I was a little jealous of your luck. You always had the good guys after you.. I can barely believe you would be jealous of me.”I shook my head, “I was human after all, it is not surprising I was petty minded.”Kelly sighed in relief, “If only I had the opportunity to live again, I would live very well.”I helped Kelly sit on the couch and she sighed again, “The only thing I don't regret in my life is meeting you and Alexa. It must have been fate, trying to tie me up with

Was this really Kelly? If she hadn't spoke in her usual condensing manner I wouldn't believe it was her.“Kelly?” i asked as I reached out to caress her now, wrinkly face.It was impossible.. was it really her?“Bella” Said Kelly as she pulled me into a warm hug.I was surprised, I didn't know if it would be right to hug back. After so many years, she still remembered me.Tears rolled down my cheeks as i remembered everything we did together before we separated.“Bella,” said Kelly as she pulled away from the hug and drag me into her house. Nothing much had changed except the furnitures and curtains. I smiled.“Sit down, I'll get you some tea. You must have a lot of tell me!”I smiled and watched as Kelly disappeared into the kitchen. I sat on the couch and sighed. I didn't expect her to respond so casually to seeing me again. I thought she'd

I nodded and went back to my job, serving drinks.“So.. are you getting married?” My boss asked all of a sudden making me shake my head vigorously. “Of course not sir, why would you think that?”“Your ring” My boss said boredly. I started at the ring in my index finger embarrassedly. I couldn't believe I almost forgot about it. A subtle smile appeared on my lips on realizing how simple but beautiful the ring looked. Like a bunch of red roses.“Whoever gave you that, you should marry him”“What?” I nearly choked on hearing my boss's words. Did I perhaps hear wrong?

“Do you want a ride?” Asked a young gentleman as he parked his car in front of me.Without any hesitation, I entered the car and pulled on the seatbelt. But it didn't seem to work like I expected.The gentleman chuckled and pressed a button near my seat and the belt presented itself in front of me and I nearly jumped.“What sort of sorcery is this?” I exclaimed and touched the belt which instantly wrapped itself around me and fixed itself in the small box next to me.“The latest human technology.”I glanced the gentleman in the driver's seat and realized he wasn't human either.“What are you? A demon?” I asked as he started the car.He stopped the car and sighed. “How can you tell I am not human?”“You're putting on a black Italian hat, black sunglass and suit. Also I cannot feel your soul- you don't have

“It is time to commence the coronation of the newest council member, excellency beauty.”I was dressed in a red bright dress with flowers decorating my ankles and wrists.Today was a full moon, the perfect time for my inauguration ceremony.After a few months of nursing my health, I was back in shape. Although there were a few awkward pauses in my vision, asides from that I was good.Asides from the realm elders, the council and Leader Atrix. There was no one else here. My identity was supposed to be a secret. Ordinary people couldn't know me unless it was absolutely necessary.The sky darkened and the moon illuminates the dark sky. I could feel the radiation from the moon feeling my spirit. I sighed in content and stopped in front of the burning firewood.“Kneel” One of the seven elders said and I did. Another elder approached me with a tablet in her hand.

When I woke up I felt much better and healed, the cave was warm and I was having a nice daydream- Laying in Cameron's lap next to the fireplace and the scent of his body engulfing my nostrils.I wouldn't ask for anything else.“I wish it wasn't a dream” I said longingly as the invisible hand caressed my face.“I wish I came for you earlier.”My breath hitched when I heard his imaginary voice in my ears.“Please..” I said, “Please don't ever leave me alone.”“I-i would never, ever leave you again, my love, I'm here.”I smiled, “That is good.”I closed my eyes again and when I opened them, Cameron was staring right at my face.I was stunned. Was this real?“Cameron..” I whispered trailing my fingers across his cheeks. “Are you real?”
