Chapter 1 A new life

With a deep breath, Selene takes her first step out of the bus, ready for another challenge. A ray of sunshine flash before her, forcing her to race a hand to her face, as the beam from the setting sun prickled her skin. Her heart raced upon glimpsing at the scenery of reddish skies kissing the mountains. Along with the lush forest all around. Unlike her hometown, filled with buildings, bustling cars, and people. The place was teeming with trees and other plants. Few vehicles drove by the long road, and the highest structures were a three story clock tower, resembling those of olden times. After having her fill of the view, she reaches for her pocket, fishing out the piece of paper she received from the mail, reading the notes and drawn map on it. She swallowed hard, wandering her gaze to search for the landmark which was shown there. Nervous that she might be in the wrong place. A strong wind blew by when the bus left, causing her to let out a loud squeal when the gust lifted he

Chapter 2 Starting a new

After preparing breakfast, cleaning the house, and doing the laundry, Selene readied herself to start her day. Not wanting to experience another mishap like yesterday. This time she wore a plain white shirt, jeans, and sneakers. Yet because they were old clothes, all of them were hugging tightly, even with her thin figure. All seemed well, until she checked herself in the mirror and saw how her belly was sticking out, because of how her breast were pushing parts of it. Not having anything else to wear, since all her other stuff had become faded, ripped, or too small for her, she got left with no other choice but to make do with it. She mitigated her situation by putting on a jacket, all so she can cover herself. But because of the dry temperature, she ended up only wrapping the thing around her waist. Satisfied with her outfit on her second look, she finally steps out of the room where she was staying. This was the first time she’d slept in a soft bed in years since her parents

Chapter 3 The people

Those pitch black eyes continued to linger in her thoughts, as if it was right in front of her. There was something about the way the young man looked at her that sent unfamiliar shivers throughout her entirety. No matter how many times she tries to make sense of it all. She could not figure why she could not remove it from her mind. Also, her consciousness did not wander off some place during the entire time. As if the guy had completely pulled everything around her. She only returned to reality, catching the muffling sound of a sweet voice, together with a shadow waving at her peripheral vision. Selene flinches, shaking her head to wake herself from the daze. Followed by an immediate gulp, because of the sudden dryness in her throat. “You all right, dear?” It was aunt Penelope, staring at her with a frown. Worry etched on her face, realizing she’d been dozing their entire conversation. “Yes, aunty.” Selene was quick to put on her smile, hurrying to finish the food in her pl

Chapter 4 Something to ponder

Thankfully, everything went well that day with no issues, though there were more patrons than before. So their shift ended up getting later than before. After saying their farewells to the owners, she and her new friend Loraine make their way home. Clouds shrouded the sky, covering the moon’s shine and shrouding the entire street in darkness. Even with the streetlamps, their glow focused on the road and nowhere else. If it wasn’t for the lively companion Selene had right now, she’d have a hard time walking alone because of how eery it became. “I can’t believe you know Lucas Mandel?” Loraine squealed in delight, uncontrollably jumping while clapping her hands non-stop. The girl looked like a child that had too much candy, continuously prancing around without a sign of tiredness. “I’m not sure of his surname, but I only met him a few times.” Thinking back on the people she had a conversation with that day, there was only one person with that name. Also, seeing how the woman was o

Chapter 5 A warning

Blood splashed her vision, causing her to wail from the taste of salt and iron on her mouth, along with the cold and wetness scattering through her face. Followed by the image of a giant beast lunging towards her.It was only when brawny arms wrapped around her body, alongside a deep yet subtle cooing, did her nerves calmed. She did not fall on the ground, instead laid comfortably on firm muscles.She was having one of those visions again. And this time, the scene was so real; she became unable to distinguish it from reality. Until she had this warmness covering her, mixed with that relaxing aroma of cedar wood.She took a few more moments to fully regain her composure, understanding that she was safe in the arms of someone strong and protective.But the minute she got a glimpse of the person holding her, everything turned topsy-turvy when, once again, her visions became a blur.An odd glow radiated from the guy when her sights gaze upon those alluring sets of eyes staring straight at

Chapter 6 To be the new girl

Renewed with a kind of vigor for his start at life. Selene was all smiles as she walked into the halls of the school.She’d greet almost every person she come across, giving a pleasant nod, hoping for the same reply or at least a hello.But all she received were frowns and condescending gazes, with some clicking on their tongues and wincing upon catching sight of her.It didn’t take long before her energy and liveliness finally faded, realizing she was doing something wrong, especially seeing how everyone avoided her the moment she stepped into the classroom, as if she carried the plague.Because of this, she chose to sit at the far end of the room, same as what she usually did in her previous schools.It seems no matter where she goes, her place will always be at the bottom.It wasn’t that hard to see, considering she wore her normal white T-shirt, tight jeans, and worn out sneakers. Compared to the students there who donned fashionable clothing, with some being well-known brands, he

Chapter 7 Reason for concerns

Selene pondered on the advice left to her by Duncan. The idea of avoiding her newly found friends caused her insides to twist and her stomach twitch.Rejection and avoidance were no stranger to her, and she cannot put it upon herself to do the same to others. Aware of the pain and sadness it brings.“You all right?”Loraine’s voice sounded like a hum. But it was enough to wake her from the sudden trance, making her move her hand in a circular motion, as she had been wiping the counter before all of that happened.“Yeah, just a bit worn out?”She was quick to answer, seeing how the girl raised a brow, along with throwing a confused and questioning gaze, but was not enough to throw the girl off.Instead, Loraine put both hands on her hips, now playfully grinning.“There’s this twinkle in your eyes. Is it because of Lucas Mandel? I heard you two are in the same class. Do I smell something brewing in here?”She nearly squeals, clapping and shaking her shoulders in a playful giggle.“Oh no

Chapter 8 A change

Lungs tightening with each breath, skin stinging from every corner, and joints throbbing even while she remained steady, laid down, facing the sky. A whimper escaped Selene because of the mixture of cold numbness and stabbing pain within her body.It was the sounds of murmurs from afar that woke her up. As her instincts were pushing her to move or cry out once more.She opened her mouth, but her throat burned from the inside when she tried to make a sound, causing her to cough, making her insides twist and prickle. She let out a gurgling noise when liquid started coming out of her.Another croak came when she tasted the iron, dirt, and tanginess in her tongue. It left her with no choice but to stop, needing to chase after her breath.“The trail leads here!”A familiar voice echoed through the forest. But the depth of darkness was too thick that everything remained pitch black.Not wanting to give up, Selene gathered every remaining ounce of strength she had, pushing as much air throug

But to their surprise, they face a perfectly healthy and resting girl, half naked because of her torn clothes.“None of you can prove that.”Lucas was keen to dismiss the idea, sending a mocking gaze at the people there.That receive glares from everybody who was present, even the doctors and nur

Chapter 10 Choices and a bargain

Even with the stinging scent of ammonia, alcohol, and iron attacking her senses, Selene continued pretending to be asleep. She’d been awake for half an hour, but could not bring it upon herself to open her eyes in fear, hearing the number of individuals around her, along with being naked.From what she caught during the entire conversation, they were fighting over her about something, though she didn’t catch the gist of it all.One thing is for sure, in her mind, there were people who didn’t want her there. She could not understand what she’d done wrong this time, since she had been keeping to herself.The thought of that cause a surge of terror and panic in her.Each breath she took became heavier, faster, and stingy with each inhale. Her eyes, even though remaining closed, heated when tears formed and wish to escape.It was at this moment the calming voice echoed through her thoughts again.‘Be strong, little one.’These words hummed inside her head, like a soothing music which put
