Work at the bar went on as usual, serving customers, mixing their drinks and sometimes, serving snacks. Nothing different. But our customers seemed to be as much as it was the previous day. So i got paid thirty dollars.

The moment I stepped out of the bar I felt creeped out, it felt as though someone was watching me but whenever I looked back no one was staring my way.

“Ziyah” I called cautiously.

As if knowing what I was thinking, Ziyah sighed, “All clear”

It was already 11pm and I had earlier texted Kelly and Alexa earlier informing them I would go to Kelly's a bit late.

After hearing Ziyah's confirmation, I felt a little secure but there was still a doubt in my mind as I walked down the street.

After a while of cornering a few streets I felt more tense as though I was being followed. What if the strange man from last night found me again?

Cameron.“Cameron?!” I said surprised.“As expected, the boy toy shows up. Why am I not surprised?” Said Krim with a mocking smile that sickened me to the deepest of my cores.Cameron pulled his arms around me without giving me a glance which made me feel weird.. Why was he doing that?“Beauty and I are one. If you lay just a finger on her, I'll dig out your heart and I swea

    “I-i t-think I should go” I blurted after a few moments of staring at a quiet Draco. He nearly got hurt because of me. Maybe I just wasn't caught up for this motherhood shit. I stared back at the tiny knife in my hand, the same one I used to kill my own father.I felt horrible. I didn't pay more attention. I could've easily hurt my baby!“Cameron I'm l-leaving, t-thanks for tonight and-”“-Go to your room tonight, we'll talk tomorrow” Cameron interupted making me freeze in my steps. Why would he want to harbour me in his home despite what I just did?“What?” I questioned thinking I heard him wrong.“Do you want to get caught by that bastard again? Just go to your room and we'll talk tomorrow, right now I'm not in the mood!”“But-”“-Fuck it Beauty, just go to bed. Don't make me say s

    “What do you mean I'm selfish?” I asked immediately. I never thought of myself as selfish all through my years of adulthood. I always tried to be there for those who needed my help but.. I guess I wasn't really there for Draco. Yes, I thought of him in my plans but maybe it just wasn't enough.“Well.. you tend to put yourself first before others” Said Cameron making me shrug. What did he expect for me to put other people's feelings above mine, Is that it? Where's the self love in his thoughts?“What do you expect me to do? Consider other people before myself? That's not fair”He sighed, “All I'm saying is to pay a little more attention- Nevermind, go downstairs to eat, the food will soon get cold. Draco is downstairs, I already fed him. He's asleep again, so you have twenty minutes to relax. After twenty minutes, he'll wake up and want to go outside. Don't let him, it's too cold out and it's not good

    After an hour of playing with Draco, I decided he was hungry and needed to be breastfed. So I pulled out my top and was about to remove my bra when a voice nearly threw me to the floor.“You can't breastfeed him”“Arghh!” I shrieked and jumped but when I turned around to see the evil ghost that scared me.. it was Cameron. I sighed and tried to relax my pounding heart. How come I didn't see hear him walk down the stairs? I sighed one more time before asking, “Why the hell can't I breastfeed Draco? He's my son”“Our son isn't human. If you breastfeed him, he'll grow too strong. He's already really big right now, in two years, if breastfed, will have the mentality of a twelve year old. That's growing too fast, it won't be fair on him”I sighed and put my top back on. I forgot my son wasn't human.“So what is Draco then? I'm a witch from Crescent moon you're a what? From the seven

    “My little Dragon.. do you know where your father keep all of his secrets? Why did he look so down today?” I asked Draco who stared confusedly at me while I sneaked into Cameron's room. I carefully searched through the drawers but there was nothing that stood out or anything.. I sighed and thought about the words Cameron said yesterday and today.Yesterday, he was mad at me because I held a knife close to Draco. He had the right to be mad, it was my mistake and Today.. he said I was selfish and should pay more attention..I sighed.Pay attention.. Did he mean I should stay closer to him?Does that mean he was lonely and needed someone to pay more attention to him? I sighed again, more deeply.Wasn't that the reason he wanted to hug me earlier? Could it be because.. he was going through a hard time and needed me to pay him more attenti

    It was just 10pm but nothing unusual happened till I finished my shift. I received my pay and strolled to Cameron's. On the way, I called Alexa and Kelly explaining exactly what happened. They weren't exactly pleased with me but-When I reached Cameron's, I knocked carefully on the door just in case Draco was asleep. I didn't want to scare my little dragon.After a few moments, the door opened revealing Cameron's excited face. It seems.“Uh-hi, come in”I nodded and walked inside quickly. It was really cold outside after all.“Grab an extra coat next time, you leave for work” Cameron said while closing the door and locking it. I nodded and he grabbed my hand, leading me to the kitchen.“I made rice and pork for dinner” Said Cameron while putting a full plate in the microwave to warm. After about five minutes, it was warm enough to be eaten. So I dug in and ate to my

    “Cameron.. don't stay up too late. I'm going to bed, I can't be tired when Draco wakes up”However, Cameron snatched my hand before I could leave.“Cameron-”“-Is Draco all you want? What about me?!”I froze but regained myself quickly, why did he sound as though he was jealous.. of our own son?! Wait.. was he drunk? Could a god get drunk? Wait what was I thinking? Of course Cameron could get drunk, wasn't that how I got pregnant? Even though I don't remember any of the action.I snatched my hand from Cameron's and sighed deeply, “Cameron- stop being whiny, I advised you to use some medicine but you wouldn't listen now you're drunk and spewing garbage. Sleep on the couch tonight, I don't want Draco to smell your gross breath!” Without waiting for a response I ran straight to my room.***It was as early as 4am, when I hea

    “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?”
