They're fast, like seriously fucking fast. I've never encountered such speed, not even when I was escaping a fucking Vampire. Why the hell did I feel the need to help Oliva? I should have left her to the wolves and continue with my day.
Now I sound like my father.
My heart thunders behind my ribs. It isn't fear. I'm in 'awe' of the power Jaxson extrudes, and somehow, I doubt this scratches the surface.Eldora shakes, the bed rattles, the walls vibrate, the lights flicker. Pained howls echo in the chaos, and I'm beginning to think the nurse isn't the only one forced to shift.
"Fucking great, he's here?!" Dylan groans, falling onto the couch with a frustrated hand over his face. I just entered the lounge so whatever conversation they were in, I'm not apart of; yet."Blame our little wolf over here, she is the cause," Grayson muses, his black eyes flickering to mine and I ignore him. What is he accusing me off?
“My lords…” Olivia enters the lounge ten minutes after my declaration, “the Alpha King awaits by your throne,” she announces, her body and eyes drop to the ground.She sounds confident. I almost didn’t notice her figure shaking fearfully in the presence of not only one, butall
“So, what do you think?” I ask, turning my face to peer into soft hazel, eyes. A human girl, no more than five, lay beside me.She has a smile drawn to her innocent features, uncaring that I may hurt her at any given opportunity.
I lift my head to stare at the trillions of stars gracing the night sky. The moon illuminates our small figures. I hold Theia close to me. She passed out the second we arrived on Earth, but it’s understandable considering her little body couldn’t withstand the pressure of the portal.I wait on an abandoned park bench familiar to me, staring at a pit of sand for the creature to show herself. We arrived here an hour ago, Theia slept the whole time in my arms. The night air is slightly c
“Since when is your mark white?” Naira asks. The three of us sit around a table in a karaoke club. Listening to humans sing one after the other. Theia insisted we eat here, large groups of people dancing and cheering to the different groups of humans singing to the songs.Blue, purple, and pink colours danced around us. It’s loud, but nothing compared to Eldora. Naira masked our identity, so we look normal.
“Your brother is avoiding me,” I complain loudly, falling onto the couch beside Grayson pouring myself a drink. We arrived back to Eldora two hours ago, much to Dylan, Sophia, Theia’s, and my displeasure.The siblings being on Earth is causing discourse amongst Heaven - such power doesn’t belong there. We arrived back two hours ago, and Jaxson hasn’t looked at me since. So I came to vent my feeling to his brother. He chuckles, “well, he assumed you ran from him
WARNING - Long chapter. Heated Chapter. Enjoy ;)I’m at the lake. It’s no surprise Jaxson isn’t here. Even so, I know he was here just before I arrived. I stomp my naked heel into the dirt, growing agitated by this game of ours.
Well shit, its the end!Damn, I really enjoyed writing this novel. I loved the lessons its taught me and I love the person I've become through writing this book. Especially Valerie. I love who she's become. I love she's finally able to trust those around her, I love that she continues to fight no matter how much times life interferes, intent and making her stay down!I wanted a character who doesn't hide their emotions, a character who embraces them but is also burdened by them. I wanted a character who wore her heart on her sleeve no matter how dangerous it was especially in a cruel world.I think thats what was so special about her, she wore her feeling like armour and it was beatiful and dark. And it was weak, and it was strong. And it was dangerous, and it was safe.Damn, what the fuck am I doing in my feeling?! I'm getting tiery eyed over here.Comment what you loved most about the novel in general and tell me who your favourite characte
A soft chuckle escapes my lips as a warm hand sits on my shoulder. I don't know why I'm laughing. But I can't help myself, and I can't stop. "Nieve..." "I-I'm s-sorry..." I try to stifle my laughter, holding my stomach as tears threaten to fall. Happy or sad - I have no fucking idea. Either way, I can't stop. She's gone. Theia's gone - as fate so cruelly ordained. I laugh - because once again, they won. Those three spinsters were playing with Theia's life like it was a game to them. They played with mine, and they played with Freya's. Theia, as the oldest sister - cursed, to only feel loneliness and death.
I blink, laying in a meadow that seems to reach for miles. My head on my arms, finding shapes in the clouds to occupy my thoughts. It feels nice here. It feels peaceful. I tilt my head to the side and reach out towards a Daisy when a familiar voice reaches my ears. "So, you're finally awake," I jump slightly, shocked by the intrusion into my thoughts. My mind and body relax instantly, recognising the voice. "Oh, it's just you. You scared me!" I accuse, a smile splitting across my face. She tilts her head, her arms wrapped behind her back, holding her smile. "Really? I'm sorry," she giggles, not at all sorry. Standing up, I brush the dirt off my dress only to tilt my head staring at myself for what feels like the first time. My hands, legs and feet - they're small? I realise I'm a kid again. Wait-... again? "I think I've been dreaming," I speak my thoughts without fear, holding her soft hazel orbs with my amethyst ones.
Nia withdraws back into the safety of my mind, so now I sit on the cave grounds watching in absolute shock the power extruding from Freya.It momentarily occurs to me I'm naked, but the current circumstances prevent me from caring.Freya tilts her head and stares at the roof, blinks, and it all shatters. Jaxson is already over me, holding me bridal style and disappearing into the blackness.But as soon as we all attempt to disappear, we're forced out. "Don't leave yet, little sister. You and I - we have a prophecy to fulfil," Freya chuckles, causing me to freeze."I won't let it come to pass," I snap. Even Freya's voice feels wrong to hear. As I look into her eyes, there is no light - only
There she is, sitting in a monk position, her eyes closed - waiting. A large blue and green bonfire burns behind her, its heat crawling across my skin but, it doesn't burn.Her long icy white hair cascades down her back and sits behind her on cave grounds, relaxed. I know she knows we're here. The cocky curve of her lips proves it.Sophia makes the first move, "Alikurda verous," her voice sounds deeper as her eyes turn blue. Her heels stomp into the ground, and the roof of the cave falls on to Freya.Freya stays in her position, her eyes remaining shut. The stones hover just inches above her head, and her eyes finally flutter open. She sneers, "do not mock me, Witch."She lifts
"Um... who the fuck are you?" A gorgeous woman sits on a chair. Her one leg crossed over the other appearing stoic. Damn, she looks like a warrior goddess - but who the fuck is she, and why is she sitting in my hideout like she owns the damn place?"I am Aurora, Nymph of wind," it suddenly clicks who she is - she's the one Kyro mentioned. In less than a second, her nose is just inches from mine."So... your Brother Kyro's Kefta?" She murmurs, assessing me carefully."Um, yeah - I guess. As nice as this meeting is, shouldn't you be fighting a war about 30 miles west from here?" I drawl. Aroura blinks and pulls away."Ahh, yes. Though Kyro didn't need to blackmail me into it, I w
"You shouldn't be able to do that! Voce de Oracle should only be used once, for a certain time-..." Freya laughs as if realisation dawns on her, "you think, once you're finished with me-... the Gods will let you live with such abilities at your disposal?! Now I understand why you must die, no matter how you planned this battle, the Carson Sisters must not exist - if Fate wills it so!""Say what you will, Freya - I won't fight with you," I spit. Maybe she's right. But I've already made my peace with death - haven't I?No! I'm supposed to return to Theia. I'm supposed to confess to Jaxson. I want to live, but not if it means joining forces with Freya.Before I can say a word, Kyro's hand sits on my shoulder, "Kyro, what are you...?" Freya begins, but we disap
Nia's eyes bleed through mine as power sizzles and cackles around me, "Charge!" Freya seethes.I take a couple of steps forward and make a foreign symbol with my hands that I somehow knew. As I continue to walk, clouds of purple mist float out of me. My body becomes transparent - like a ghost. And Nia's spirit stands tall beside me as we continue to walk.Charming suddenly appears beside me, words of compulsion breezing past his lips that make the mud creatures go crazy. Jaxson and Grayson are next as Sophia floats above us, and with us - our army follows.Slow at first, only to start running. Faster and faster. With every step closer, our purpose only grows fiercer.We clash!&
"Emree! Take Theia to Bloodhound. She'll be safe in my father's office, far enough from here," I order, pushing Theia towards Emree, but Theia resists holding onto my arm."No! I'm staying with you!" She yells. Her gaze burns into mine with determination. I can hear shouts and scream coming from the distance, and I resist the urge to run towards it, falling on to my knees beside Theia to cup her small face."Listen to me, do you trust me?" I ask. She blinks, taken by surprise."Of course I do, but I want to protect you. What if something happens...!" Theia falls into a rant. I can clearly see worry reflect in her eyes."Look, whatever happens, happens. I can't predict the end o
