Prologue

There will be a great storm coming. Hazkiel could feel it from the strong and cold wind blowing, and from the dark clouds rolling in the sky, enveloping the corners of the country in darkness. Ordinary people might think that this phenomenon was purely due to bad weather. But no, it was all because of that creature. “Princess! We must go now!” A familiar voice came from behind Hazkiel, causing him and the Princess to turn around. The first time Hazkiel heard that call, he felt amused. Because the person being called “Princess” was much younger than him, and her attitude did not at all reflect that of a princess. But after everything they had been through together, Hazkiel never saw the Princess as a joke again. “Hazkiel, remember my message.” Hazkiel could only nod. He wanted to suggest trying another way, to say that everything didn’t have to end here. He wanted to say that he couldn’t go through the days after this without her. But that was just his selfish voice. The country wa

Trouble Maker

123 years later...“Do you always wear tights like that?”Gemma glanced through the long brown hair that covered her face. She was enjoying a cold beer after a tiring performance a few minutes ago. Can’t people just leave her alone for a while?Gemma chose not to answer the question. But what she did was make those people even more provoked.“I’ve heard rumors that you’re an unapproachable woman. But what do you mean by wearing an outfit like this, which makes all the guys think you’re ‘open’ to us?”Gemma could feel the grin of the man that talking to her. She looked up, determined to get a better look at the snob.Gemma pouted. A typical rich man who gets his wealth from the inheritance of his parents. Expensive shirts with designer suits. His black hair, neatly slicked back, gleamed like wet asphalt. A clean face is a sign that he is diligent in taking care of his body. Gemma had

Elenio

Gemma thought that in her life she would never go out while Elenio’s sky was still dark. But after she moved to Ayria, the capital of Elenio, she had that opportunity.Even though it wasn’t completely dark when Gemma came out, she still felt a unique sensation. Gemma still remembers how her body welcomed her first experience back then. Her heart was beating wildly, her legs couldn’t stop shaking. The smell of the late morning air wafted through, caressing Gemma’s skin and hair. Cold, damp, and something Gemma could never imagine before made her whole body dissolve in a feeling that was… Magical.“Why do you like making a fuss so much?”Gemma snorted. Maya is still discussing it?Who knew that rich man was a VIP guest at the nightclub?“I didn’t start it,” Gemma replied. She was still looking out the car window, not wanting to miss the chance to see the color of the sky changing at dawn.

First Sight

Gemma woke up when the sun was already hanging high in the sky and it was getting boiling in the attic.Even though Gemma had opened the window wide before she went to sleep, the breeze that came in from there could no longer relieve the stifling feeling that made Gemma sweat.Gemma got up and sat for a moment on the bed. She looked around the attic, which was now her room. The room measures three by five meters with a low sloping roof. Luckily, Gemma has a small body, so this room doesn’t feel cramped for her.A wardrobe full of the clothes that Gemma mostly got from the flea market stood firmly in the corner. Dressing table on top of which were scattered make-up tools. A bookshelf is full of books Gemma took from the library. She had read most of the books there and it was time she changed for some new books.Gemma brought a few books she could carry, then descended the spiral staircase that led her to the small room behind the administration desk

First Fight Today

One of them, who was smaller than the others, pointed a finger at Gemma.Gemma put her palm on her chest and asked innocently.“Me? You guys looking for me?”The other man, with a large body that made his shirt look like it was struggling to contain his distended stomach, snorted in annoyance and raised his voice.“Don’t pretend you don’t know! We had to be in the hospital for three days because of you!!”Gemma tilted her head. Now she remembered who they were. Those two were the men she beat up at a nightclub where Gemma had a concert last week. Gemma beat them up because they dared to abuse a maid there.Well, even though the reason sounds right, the owner of that place still doesn’t want to know and asks Gemma for compensation.“Only three days? I think up to a week.”Gemma pressed her fingers together until they made a sound. Her eyes darkened. Do they want to get reveng

Meubena

“Where are we going?”Gemma asked as the motorcade continued, sprinting over of the outer ring road east of Ayria city, instead of heading for the headquarters of the Archturian branch west of Ayria.Judging from the direction, they were now heading towards the place where a city was built for Archturians and Elenio’s elites, Meubena. Located 45 minutes from the capital, Meubena is inhabited by Archturian troops and high-ranking state officials, including the residence of the country’s leader.“Are we going to the main base?”Gemma was quite surprised, if that was the case. Was the matter so important that they took her to headquarters? Could it be that those two people were Archturians?Gemma shook her head quickly, trying to shake off the last thought. There was no way people with such pitiful fighting abilities were Archturians.“We were going to pick you up earlier. It had nothing to do with the

To The Nest

“Sorry for any inconvenience during the trip. Just standard protocol when we have to bring a stranger to base.”Those words greeted Gemma as she opened her eyes. From her unobstructed breath, she could tell that the veil on her face had been removed. But why does everything seem so blurry... And dark? There was only one spot that was so bright, it had been shining on her even when she was still half-dreaming.At first, Gemma thought it was a lamp used during interrogations. But it wasn’t. The light came from the moon, perfectly round white, hanging over the vast bluish-black sky. The moonlight was the only light here and made Gemma’s interlocutor, who was sitting opposite her, appear as a perfect silhouette.One thing was clear, he who was sitting there was a middle-aged man. Looks like her father’s age.“I won’t introduce myself, but I will tell you where we are right now.”Gemma didn’t have to

I Don't Care

Gemma put one hand on the table and the other on her chin. “You think I care for what happens to my life?” Gemma knew that the mysterious man had not expected her to answer this.“The last thing that is certain to happen to all humans is death. There’s nothing to be afraid of.”Even though she couldn’t see him, Gemma could feel that man in front of her at a loss for words. But it wasn’t long, because he opened his mouth again. Although now his voice sounded a little hoarse.“You may not care about your life, but do the people closest to you think the same?”Gemma looked at the man with an increasingly lazy look. “People closest to me? You mean, if I don’t do what you want, you will mess with people close to me?”No answer. So it is a yes.This is getting ridiculous.“Sir, if you think you can threaten me in such a cheap way you are absolutely wrong. I am no

Closer Than a Brother

The pounding on the door made Gemma groan without realizing it. Her head was about to burst, and her eyes were heavy. It took Gemma a moment to gather strength, feeling every muscle movement from her body.There was another pounding on the door, this time followed by a voice. “Gemma, are you in there?”Purity? No, it’s not her voice. It was a male voice.Gemma opened her eyes. The sun’s rays dimly shone through the transparent curtains that covered her bedroom window.What’s the time now?“Gemma.” The voice called again. It took Gemma a moment to realize it was Jo’s voice.Gemma forced herself to get up. With shaky footsteps, she opened the door.Her memory was still hazy after last night she drank too much. There wasn’t a fight where she sang last night, so Gemma had plenty of free time until morning. The only options she had were stomping on the dance floor or drinking at the bar

Jonathan

“You know, I hate every time I go out with you in public.”“I know. You always say that when we go out together.”Gemma and Jo were eating at the most popular fast-food restaurant in Ayria, which was about four hundred meters south of the library where Gemma lived. Just a fifteen-minute walk.The weather is sunny today, giving a pleasant atmosphere to spend with lunch on the seats arranged on the side of the road. Many seemed to have the same thought as Gemma and Jo, as the surrounding chairs were almost full.Two girls, apparently still in college, whispered as they passed where Jo and Gemma were sitting. They’re not the first girls to intentionally do silly things to get attention.Whose attention?Who else but Jo.“You’re just jealous, that’s all. No man acts like that when he sees you.”“If there’s one, that would be creepy.”Gemma picked up a pi
