ETHAN I got to the store at 7:40 in the morning, thirty minutes earlier than my usual time. I got everything set up and in a few minutes, I was reclining on a chair, my nose in a book. People often asked me why I decided to run a bookstore amidst other things I could have done. The truth was that I didn't think there was any one answer to that question. What I usually said was that my love for reading was the first thing that made me look in that direction and, to a great extent, that was true. You know, there was something about reading a novel, especially when it was a very good one. There was this chill it gave that never got old. Whenever I had a good book in my hands, I often felt a sort of energy surge through my bones and, no, it was more than just excitement. I know it sounded silly or hyperbolic, but it was how I have always felt, even since I was a little boy who didn't understand most of the words I read and would often be seen with a notepad beside me where I put down

Chapter 12

TYLER Grandma was always there for me. She pretty much filled the void the absence of my parents left in my life. More than just being there for me, her wisdom helped me get through things and I couldn't say this too many times. One of the many instances was when she helped me understand that being different was normal and there wasn't anything to be ashamed of. You see, when I was younger, I was jealous of my peers who were regular werewolves. Teenage werewolves often had very strong bonds with their friends because they got to experience a lot together. Because they were young and still discovering their powers, once a month, they would go out into the woods together to change. They would come back, loud and excited, talking about all the things they did together. I always use to feel left out.Most werewolves didn't know that I had been jealous of them as a kid. Being a Green Eye meant that I didn't get to feel any pain whenever I was changing into a wolf. I was a little stronge

Chapter 13

ADA When I was younger, I used to think if I could live forever I would be able to learn everything there was to learn about life; all its secrets, gems, and hidden wisdom. I would be able to control my emotions at all times and nothing would ever come as a surprise to me. Now, I was twenty-four years old but I knew that no one could say life couldn't shove surprises in their face unless that person didn't know anything about life in the first place. For the most part of the last week, I have heard things that made me question everything. I had been introduced into a world I didn't know existed; I had been told that there were twenty demons in the world who were desperate and driven to kill me. As a shocking addition, I got to watch my own mother drive our kitchen knife into my chest. Even with all these, I didn't break down. I held my head high. At least, until the worst happened. About two days ago, I got a call. I was made to know that Danielle, my best friend, was killed in he

Chapter 14

ETHAN I was in an old empty building. The pitch darkness made me wonder if I still had eyes. I brought my hands to my face and felt my eyes; they were there, but I wasn't seeing anything. The darkness was like nothing I had ever seen. I found it difficult to say just what was the most horrifying thing for me. Was it the absolute darkness? Was it the fact that my heart wouldn't stop pacing even though I had tried breathing deep and steady? Or was it the fact that I tried shouting, but no word could come out? All these and more were making me question everything and I have never wanted to cry so much as I did now. At least, if I could cry, I would hear my own voice and feel alive. Or just feel something other than fear.Then I heard a sound. No, it was nothing, I said to myself. It sounded no more than a few stealthy footsteps, but I knew it was more than that even though I tried to tell myself otherwise. I started breathing loudly, at least that was the one sound I could make. I bega

Chapter 15

TYLER You know what? To a certain extent, I liked the house especially because its duplex structure was done in a rather peculiar way. It had two large spiral staircases with mahogany railings that led to the top of the floor of the house. While it was well in the middle of nowhere and had Grandpa freaking out because the compound was ‘wild' and unkempt— knee-high grasses had taken over the entire backyard, I still liked the mansion. I mean, it was beautiful— way more ‘attractive’ and expensive-looking than the one we lived in and that was funny since this belonged to Grandma. I could only wonder why Grandma called it a little cabin. This was nothing like any cabin I had ever seen. It was a mansion and I couldn't understand why my grandparents had never told me about this place. I settled onto a cushion next to the fireplace, which Grandpa had already stocked with short logs of dry wood that crackled and popped as they burned. The warmth was especially welcome tonight; even werewo

Chapter 16

ADA Sitting at the large dining table, surrounded by my family and, well, strangers, I couldn't help but notice my father pulling Tyler aside for a private conversation. Despite their attempts at speaking in hushed tones, my heightened senses allowed me to hear every word being exchanged between them. As much as I tried to ignore the conversation, my curiosity got the best of me and I found myself eavesdropping. I couldn't help but feel conflicted; on one hand, Tyler had been nothing but a complete gentleman, but on the other, my father was quite protective and guarded when it came to his family. Particularly, when it came to me. “How are you feeling?” Mum said, looking at me and Dad, who was now sitting at the table. “I'm fine,” I let out. “You know what, Mum? I will like to take a look around the cabin. Seems really big.” I went out first, wanting to view the cabin from the front. As I stood before what, compared to my little height, appeared to be a towering structure, I could

Chapter 17

TYLER When I close my eyes, I can hear Johnny saying, “It’s your fault, Ty. You always end things just before it gets serious.”Can I blame him? He wasn't lying.Today, as I sit in the backyard alone, my thoughts and feelings are muddled by my previous romantic relationships. As I sit here with a heavy heart, I try to make sense of my feelings but find myself slipping deeper into this state of despair and loneliness that I have been in for quite a while. Want to know what's funny? I like to think that every time I think I've found true love, it's ripped away from me, leaving me with a broken heart and a sense of emptiness that I just can't seem to shake off.I love thinking about it all that way. It makes everything easier and uncomplicated. But in reality, that's not really true. I am the one who pushes them away. Yeah, it's me – I'm the problem.Susan, Stacy, Laurel, Windinya, and most recently, Enid...all of them were amazing women, each with their own unique qualities that drew m

Chapter 18

ADA“Ada, get back,” Dad yelled as he pulled me behind him.The eerie silence that lingered in the compound was broken by the sudden intrusion of the Xiray. Its skin, an inky shade of black, was the very embodiment of darkness. Its eyes were like deep, empty pits, within which swirled an otherworldly energy that sent shivers down my spine.As I watched, my hands trembling, from a safe distance, Tyler and Johnny slowly came up to the Xiray. Their movements were slow but steady. Both of them had this grim determination as they approached the Xiray, their claws already out of their fingers. I stared at them in awe because in this moment, there didn't seem to be a foe they couldn't take down.However, the Xiray seemed fearless. If anything, it was excited for the fight to start. The Xiray was a formidable foe, with sharp claws that glinted menacingly in the dim light. I held my breath as I stared at it. But Tyler and John, from the way they acted, didn't seem like they were strangers to f

Chapter 19

ETHANI was in the bookstore, enjoying some hot coffee. Yeah, just another day in the bookstore.As I sat there, coffee in my left hand, my mind wandered towards memories of Brent, and my heart instantly quickened its pace. You know what's funny? I always like to say I don't like him, but I find myself helplessly drawn to him.A few days ago, I saw that demonic face I previously saw at the Conans. Even to this day, I can't explain what I saw. Long story short, I called Brent, and like the noble soldier he was, he came, kissed me, and had me in his arms. Call me a kid or whatever, but I felt safe. Even though he didn't understand why I was so terrified, he told me that everything would be fine, and willingly, I believed.Brent, in my somewhat biased opinion, was the epitome of strength, exuding confidence in every move he made. His face, chiseled to perfection, held the promise of the world in his eyes, as if he could conquer anything that crossed his path. Yes, he was a carpenter, but

Chapter 20

TYLER I walked along a pathway that led to the top of a nearby hill. As I looked around, it was as though I was suddenly transported to a realm of utter serenity and tranquility. I have always been one to sit back and enjoy watching the beauty of the world. The towering trees extended heavenward, like imposing giants commanding the attention of all who behold them. Their branches stretched out like arms beckoning me forward. The grandeur of the natural world left me awestruck, and a profound feeling of respect and admiration washed over me. The warm rays of the sun tenderly grazed my cheeks, while the gentle breeze brushed against my skin. I felt as if the world itself was embracing me and, of course, it received the same energy from me. Taking it all in, I gaped at everything I saw, taking in the beauty and splendor of my environment. My heart beat with gratitude for the beauty that surrounded me. The trees stood tall like magnificent monuments of life. Their trunks exhibited an un
