“Look, look! She's here!" “Hey, wasn't it a magic trick?"“I’ve no idea why I felt like I’ve forgotten something important. But I just don’t feel good seeing her around.”"Whatever. I don't wanna think about it." All eyes were on Miracle the moment she stepped onto the school grounds. Unlike her first day, there was no wonder in their gazes—only doubt and suspicion. Her grip tightened on the straps of her bag, her hands trembling as she felt the weight of their attention. It would have been much obvious if Lyn hadn't wrapped her palm around hers."Don't worry. Just act like you always do," Lyn whispered in her right ear. "Exactly. You still have us backing you up,” said Kingsley in her other.As they walked along the corridor to their classroom, a girl from another class rushed out and accidentally knocked into Miracle. Her biology report, with meticulous sketches on almost every page, scattered across the floor.Avery was her name, neatly printed on the orange name tag.Miracle hel

Chapter 32

Miracle froze in her tracks the moment she heard his voice in the class. She peeked through the grimy glass panel.He was sitting right there, flipping through the literature textbook with his right hand while copying some notes with the other. Her heart skipped a beat as she watched him return the smile to Jordan. A usual one. But her breathing quickened, as if he were smiling at her. Annoying butterflies were back, banging against the walls of her stomach and weakening her hold on sanity.'No, Xue’er. Don't dive into it any longer.' His presence was too unexpected. At this point, be it a kind fallen angel or otherwise, she couldn't risk choosing anything in between. She could only opt for the worse. She shut her eyes and awakened the promises made—the pledge to put an end to the repeating torment every eighteen years.Earth responded to her needs. A spark of its vitality rose from her feet and rushed into her body, gently soothing her tense inner soul. Pellucid swirls of green revo

Chapter 33

When Miracle got back home, she locked herself in her room and slid her back down the door.“What exactly is wrong with you, Xue’er?” She frowned, losing the focus of her vision as tears pooled in her sunken eyes. “Didn’t you come here to avenge your deceased friends? The fallen angel stood right there. Why didn’t you kill him?”She couldn't complete her mission. Nothing was right anymore. Nothing felt right anymore. She was desperate for everything to end. When she looked at her mark, she knew exactly that she no longer had the chance to return to her world in one piece. Miracle flopped onto her bed and pulled the pillow over, burying her face in it."Daughter of a dragon and a fallen angel, the key to bringing peace to the worlds," she murmured, recalling the lessons she had learned back in Long Sheng Jie. "And for peace to return, to be sacrificed is the only way." 'To be sacrificed is the only way,' she repeated, her eyes springing open.Exactly! She knew she was the key to endin

Chapter 34

"MIRACLE WATSON!" Lyn's panicky voice echoed in her ears, pulling her away from the scene with Qilong and Xiao Xun in an instant. Miracle jolted awake, her eyelashes fluttering as sweat trickled down her quivering chin. When her grogginess faded, she was vividly brought back to the last thing she had done before slipping into unconsciousness.She darted her troubled eyes around the room, and a pang of guilt stirred within her when she saw the Watsons by her side."Miracle! You scared the hell out of us!" Lyn exclaimed, sitting on the edge of her bed. "I..." She trailed off the moment she met Hayden's disappointed look. He was leaning sideways against the footboard with his brows furrowed. Miracle pursed her trembling lips. The lingering taste of the blood once again filled her mouth, reminding her of the silly act she had committed. Underneath her blanket, she wiggled her toes, hoping the rustling would ease the tension hanging in the air.As expected, she couldn't look him in the

Chapter 35

Miracle walked down the street that seemingly had no end. It was another starless night. Was it her illusion, or did everywhere seem darker than before? Even the breeze was colder, cutting through her skin like icy needles. She hugged her arms, trying to warm herself up. Frowning, she looked around at the desolate, lifeless surroundings, the creepy silence pressing in on her from all sides.‘Where is this place?’ she wondered.How did she end up here?Wasn’t she at the Watsons’?“AHHHHH! HELP!”That unsettling scream broke her train of thought.She stood frozen for a moment. The next second, a sudden pang of ominous dread surged through her. Before she even realized it, her feet were already moving, propelling her into a run. Every muscle tensed, her heart pounding hard against her chest.She knew what that was.What else could it be in the middle of the night?What else but that?‘Faster! Faster, Xue’er!’ she urged herself as she sprinted towards it.Yes, she was getting closer to tha

Chapter 36

The rest of the week passed by in an unusual calm. No troubles stirred from the shadows by Mynheex or fallen angels. Now that the twins were aware of Melvin’s identity, the coldness in their attitude was evident. They didn’t talk to him at school, nor did he approach them. He probably guessed that they had found out about him. Other than that, everything was smooth, a little too smooth to be considered true.And as expected, when things seemed too smooth, it was the harbinger of something terrible lurking just around the corner."Ouch!" The heated test tube holding the neutralized iodine solution cracked and sliced through Lyn's palm. "Lyn!" Kingsley switched off his Bunsen burner and jumped over his chair. "Gosh... You're bleeding," he said, raising his hand to get Nancy's attention. "Kingsley." Her body was shivering. "I'm having a really bad feeling." He opened her hand when she gripped it tightly. Too much pressure was only going to worsen the wound. "What is it?" he asked. “I

Chapter 37

As Miracle stood outside the house, her heart raced, her senses on high alert as a sickening stench of decay filled the air. Her breath came in short, sharp bursts. She gestured for the twins to wait outside, her index finger pressed firmly to her lips. Leaning against the wall, she flamed her fingers in red, the metacarpal bones on the back of her hand protruding.However, her flames dimmed to a feeble glow when she saw the wilting silver fronds through the broken wooden door. An unwelcome numbness spread across her mark. It wasn't just the plants dying; they were bringing away the layer of protection they had on her divine breath.Miracle walked in, her eyes darting around until she saw the disaster ahead. The couches were no longer in their right positions, blue curtains were spread wide apart with blood splashed across them as if trying to create some grotesque artwork, and broken glass shards were scattered everywhere. The chaotic scene hit her hard. She almost thought she was in

Chapter 38

Living room. Kitchen. Backyard. Traces of him were everywhere—so many that it was hard to accept his death as a fact."Hayden..." Miracle fell to her knees on the broken floor. "I thought we could end this together. I thought I could protect everyone." A wave of defeat washed over her as she stared at the silver fronds, no longer shimmering with pride. "And my ‘everyone’ included you…" It felt like she was there when it happened. The scene of Arlyaen appearing in the house flashed before her eyes, reporting itself to her from the beginning until the end. They unfolded like a movie, concluding with the part where Hayden struggled to write the blood note. Miracle pursed her lips, holding back her tears as she watched how cruel the evil was in ending the life of the man who treated her like his own. Slowly, through her blurry vision, she saw the late man. He was there, in his usual three-quarter faded pants and plain blue tee, sitting on the couch. He took a sip of jasmine green tea a

Chapter 39

"Weird." Lyn walked back and forth, stressing her words as she stopped in front of Miracle. "SO WEIRD!" She was far from convinced by the earlier announcement. A night class as part of the final assignment? What could they be asked to do—test their bravery? Some sort of secret agent training?"Mr. Vincent never holds any night classes. He knows what will happen if he has one." Kingsley flicked his wrist, and his spell swept across the walls, erasing the marks of what had happened in their house. "You mean this is the first time?" Miracle asked, her brows furrowing in confusion."It's the first time for the cycle to be happening in such a way," Lyn remarked. "Wait..." Miracle slapped the table as if somebody lit up a bulb in her head. "Could it be that Mr. Vincent is in danger? And the whole of night class is the evils' plan?" "It doesn't make sense." Lyn shook her head, frowning. "Then what about Ms. Nancy? I mean... she can't be evil, can she? We've been with her for almost a year

Chapter 40

The night was eerily darker than usual, casting an ominous gloom over the school grounds.Street lights were out, again. Moon rays piercing through the heavy mass of black clouds weren't helping much in easing the creeps. The faint rays fell upon the enormous metal clock mounted on the main building, its hour and minute hands frozen in place, creating an unsettling stillness.Suspicious flocks of bats flew in erratic patterns, their high-pitched squeaks echoing through the air. Miracle stood by the hall entrance, her heart pounding as she tried to calm her rising adrenaline. The headcount continued to swell. It was strange for Stellaerio to hold a night class, but despite the oddity, more and more students continued to arrive."I don't see Ms. Nancy," Lyn murmured, glancing at all possible corners she could find. "Or Mr. Vincent.""Which means I need to check everywhere before it's too late," Miracle uttered in urge and started to retreat from the crowd. "Lyn, Kingsley. Take care of ev
