I could see a person jogging towards us from the corner of my eye. Of course, I didn't pay any heed to the person because it was immaterial. But as the person's panting was much clearer as he was getting closer, I widened my eyes. No...this is the worst possible scenario I could have been caught up into! "Cassandra..?" I stand up at once, looking at Zayn. He is panting, and he adjusts his spectacles before sighing. "Hey, Klarksman. What are you doing here?" Composing himself almost immediately, Zayn asks Mark who stands up as well."Just having a jog before going back to town, professor. What about you? This is such a small world, isn't it? I just bumped into her before you got to us." Mark says the truth. Zayn turns to look at me, and I nod...forcing a smile. It takes a few seconds for Zayn to respond as he says,"I agree with that. I was walking to my house and happened to see you both. Wanted to show up and say hello, but it seems like you're busy by yourselves." Zayn makes a sna

"What are you doing here, Mark?" I ask the man who tilts his head to the side. He looks around us as if trying to come up with an answer. "I hope this is a public space, haha. It's a park, if you didn't know that." He responds quirkily. I shake my head vigorously and repeat myself once again. "That's not what I mean— Leave it. It's ruined anyway." Defeated, I sit back down on the metal bench. "Oh...I sense trouble. If you want to tell me about something, I'm right here." Walking around me, Mark takes the space on the bench beside me. I keep staring at him. He takes his earphones out, stuffing them in his pockets. This young man has more patience than I could ever have. He waits for a whole few minutes before I speak. I explain the situation I am in. Of course, I didn't dare reveal his name. But Mark is now aware that I'm dating a corporate middle-aged man as soon as I turn 18. He nods his head, understanding my situation. "Have you...ever been in a relationship?" I ask Mark. Some

His eyes widen. I was right all along. He was feeling indifferent towards Mark since the day he met him but I never knew it for sure...until now. I cross my arms on my chest and glare at him. "Don't look at me like that. That is completely natural for me to feel as if you have clicked with Mark. He seemed to pique your interest. And honestly, you're not the only one, sweetheart. I mean, other girls look at him too—" I cut him off quickly. How dare he!? He realizes way too quickly and tries to control the damage he's done. But I was already scoffing at him, trying not to raise my voice. "Zayn. What do you even mean by that? Do you realize how that reflects on ME!?" He stands up at my words at once! He tries to approach me, but I swerve from his touch swiftly,"Don't touch me, Zayn. Do you think I would be attracted to Mark just like all the other girls? How could you even think I would have eyes for another man while I've been waiting for you for two fucking lives!?" I scream at him

"Who was that, darling?" A gasp escapes my lips as I turn around to see Zayn entering the room. His eyebrows knot together, he closes the door behind himself. "Did I scare you?" He asks, chuckling...uncomfortably. "No, not at all! I was on a call with my um...friend. The new guy from England in our class?" I ask, feeling the tightness in my chest as I do so. What is wrong with me?"Uh-huh. Mark Klarksman. He had a splendid academic record on his mark sheet. What about him?" I hear him say and watch him approach me as he speaks. He now stands in front of me, arms folded against his chest. "About him...nothing special. He wanted to surprise me for my birthday yesterday, but since I haven't gone to school..." My words started fading as I couldn't express myself well. I hear Zayn sighing. It makes me lift my head to meet his gaze. "Please tell me what he's told you on the call." Sounding annoyed, Zayn asks me."He...wanted to hang out with me today since he would be leaving briefly to

Cassandra's POV The atmosphere around the room wasn't as awkward as I had expected. That made me chuckle and lighten the mood all the more. I'm pretty confident that Zayn would be able to handle his cousin for having a loud mouth!"He's the troublesome cousin you were talking about, right?" I lean towards Zayn, who had just sat down and asked. He adjusts on his seat, sighing his heart away. That gives me my answer. "Oh, the bread is really good." I felt the bread melt in my mouth before I commented. "That is our chef's favourite sourdough bread. He's become an expert at that!" Zayn responds to me. "It's so soft and warm and moist. Oh lord, I've never eaten a more delicious bread than this!" I exclaim, but looking at Zayn's pervy face, I roll my eyes. "I know what else is soft and warm and moist, baby girl." I knew that was coming from his mouth. The breakfast concludes quickly yet I'm full to my chest! It was so fresh, scrumptious and nothing but perfection. Although, I leave Zay

Curse my blindness. Cassandra and I look at each other and back at the door. The man who just entered has seen my junk and everything! It was such an awkward position as well! "I think he's seen all of it," Cassandra says, dangling my spectacles in front of me. I wear it, bringing myself back to earth. Was it Ronan, perhaps? He's probably the only one who hasn't met Cassandra yet. And they're almost the same age as well. He's just one year older, or I suppose. "Don't bother. He's just your cousin!" Chuckling as she wakes up, Cassandra assures me. Suddenly, her body intertwined with mine as she got on top of me, naked. "The door is still open, might as well remind you," I say, watching her adjust as I hold her waist. "And I don't care, might as well remind you." Cassandra sassily repeated my words as a smile just couldn't help but burst into a smirk on my lips. I cover her back with the sheets, covering myself as well."I like this confidence in you," I say, letting her take my spe

Varca was brave enough to think he could stand up to Kohl and Lucien. He was confused when he was overpowered by the strongest male duo that ever walked on Earth. He stood up again, his body made a dent in a low hill after Kohl kicked him into it. His battle spirit was slowly fading, and he looked down at the giant hole in his chest. He was bleeding from his mouth and bleeding from his chest. His heart had gone missing. And when everything looked like a blissful win for the werewolf-man duo, Varca clicked his fingers, and an abnormal amount of smoke just spread through, all around the shore of Bepal. The ships were spreading it. They were crushing a bunch of neurotoxin which the vampires are immune to. They were a blend of...wolfsbane. Kohl realised his dirty plan when he saw the humans falling to their knees, sucked out to the last drop by vampires. He growled at Varca, charging at him with a stake of a broken roof in his hand. "ARGH!" Varca cried, coughing out blood. "You w

[2 days ago, South Bepal shore]The shore was quiet and the sea smelled great. The shore bred warmth from the coastline it touched, the south side was especially warm during afternoons. A fisherman's boy from the shoreline village was playing with his red male doll. It looked like the Fritz, twelve inches in height and almost too realistic like a baby. As he sunk the toy in the clear, wavy water I've the shore's receding wave, he felt the joy of drowning his doll. His intention was to make it swim on its own. However, there came the shore hitting wave again. But it was dyed like the color of hell.He noticed the red ink like fluid spread with the water. He didn’t realise. After all, he was just a kid. His he's turned to the other side slowly. Beyond his little boat anchored to safety was a hovering troop of red eyed monsters.He knew right away about their species. He yelled,"B-BLOODSUCKERS!!" Varca's vast fleet stationed around the coast. His giant ship's shadow grew on the s

Raya watched the young lady descend on the palace terrace softly. Her wings followed her mind and remained attached to her back. Raya smiled at the young lady who skipped towards her like an enthusiastic child. "How was the view from up there?" Asked Raya."It was awesome!" She answered simply. Eden embraced Raya's side as she asked the man to let her go, just for a while."I gotta talk to Laura about something. Give me a minute." Whispering to him, she places a kiss on his cheek when he nods his head. She leaves his embrace to fetch Laura, to talk to her."Um, hey. You got a minute for me? I know you're busy, but it's kind of important." Laura and Kathleen turned towards Raya who gently asked her. Kathleen pushed her chin towards Raya, looking at Laura as the Phoenix got the green signal."I'll be right back!" Said Laura to Tony who wanted to cling to her while the ceremony started."What do you wanna talk about?" Laura asked with a soft smile,"Um, before that, could you keep the c

Eden and Raya were sincerely missing out on everything good that was happening around the palace and the Siren Kingdom. They've deliberately avoided everyone after an hour of lovemaking.But, no matter how much they've washed each other and relieved from the scent of sex, Laura and Tony could sniff out everything within a second. Tony looked at Laura with a knowing gaze, his face all scrunched up in disgust while Laura tried not to laugh at him. They watched Eden come first, trying to hug Laura and Raya nonchalantly walk behind him. Their combination was lethal in Laura's eyes.One was a golden retriever puppy and the other was a great old sea serpent who was half as wise as Eden. She is an old soul after all, she knew nothing about the modern age and how invaluable having sex is considered in the recent times. "Um, you two smell funny." Tony said frankly, without thinking twice about the situation. Kathleen was right behind them as she checked out sea jewelry from a cute Siren maid

Days passed by.Raya could never have felt this peaceful amongst the most chaotic trio she's ever seen. They're always breaking something or the other. They're clumsy and childish.But all three separately were more mature and understanding that most ripe humans. At present, Raya watched Laura bring a baby siren close into her arms and whisper sweet nothings to the upset baby. It seems as though the baby had an indigestion problem, and as soon as Laura let a drop of her tear seep into the baby's smooth blue skin, it stopped crying almost instantly. Laura's wings furled inwards as she provided the needed warmth to the Siren baby."Magical, isn't it?" Kathleen said from behind Raya. The woman who was leaning against the huge door frame of the palace entrance stood straight in her presence. Out of respect. "Yes, indeed. She's a healer. She was born for this." Raya said in a soft voice in admiration. Her gaze turned towards the two boys who gave company to the rest of siren children pla

The door barged open as the sirens spilled inside. Raya flinched and looked behind herself."W-we heard someone falling to the floor, your highness! Is everything alright!? Are you alright?" Eden chuckled at the cute teenager sirens who barged in to 'check' on their deity. They find a single, non exclusive excuse to rush into the room, hoping to see their Sea Serpent diety just once. It looked like a terrible, annoying trick to Raya. Alas, she was too tired to even react to them."Nothing is wrong, you all. Have you ever heard of privacy?" Eden asked the teenagers amusingly. "What is that?"Raya stared at them with a blank expression. Were they pretending to be clueless or were they really unfamiliar with such terms?Eitherway, Eden limps towards them and closes the door behind himself."Do you want to rest beside me?" He was shy, scratching his head and shuffling his feet as he asked.'Not so cocky now, I see.' Raya thought in her mind. Without another word said, she crawls up int

[27 hours since hospital lockdown...]Dr Alex Langford has been helpful so far. All new patient admits have been directed to nearby hospitals. Nurses, doctors, and even janitors couldn't step outside. Meanwhile, security questioned every single hospital crew and anyone in sight, including me. I saw it was my turn after Dr Rayleigh. The storeroom was converted into a makeshift questioning room. Hundreds of interrogations already carried out. So I was being nice when I walked in with a cup of cold coffee. His eyebrow raised,"You're trying to impress me, Ms Elaine?" I didn't like his expression. But what could I say when it was the director and the Phoenix himself? Dr Luthor Langford sat across from me, eyebrow stretched and expression suggesting...suspicion on me. "Just trying to look decent, doctor," I said, sitting down with my own cup of iced latte. "So. Would you like to tell me where you were at 8:45 am yesterday, Healer Elaine?" "I was at the Coming Of Age program held at Ja

"Until I find the one who forged my signature... no one is allowed to step in or out of this hospital." The verdict has been given. A man, clad in a police uniform, stepped in, hand on his gun belt. "And on whose authority is this protocol exercised?" His condescending voice questioned Dr Rayleigh. Clearly, the security wasn't happy about it. "On mine." A new voice answered—a male. Our heads turned to him. It was the dean of medicine—Dr. Alex Langford. The hallway, full of people, moved out of their way in respect to the old soul. A Phoenix. His power was extraordinary. As he walked, it felt as though fire engulfed the path. It felt so...warm. Even I, unfamiliar with his presence, felt like bowing to him. His dark complexion made him stand out, too like a leader. "Why aren't we moving?" His polite voice asked the security. Seriousness replaced the pissed look on his face. Grabbing the collar telecom, he instructed,"Shut down all exits. It's gonna be a while." And then, Dr Al

[Time - 8:49 am]The seats were cushioned just like corruption. My ass hurt. They didn't even give us water bottles. Imagine waiting for 2 hours because the CEO of Fenris&Co decided to attend a 'surgery'. A life-saving one, indeed. When he came up on stage, his tousled hair and an almost buttoned-down shirt with creases were photographed. Excessively. In a way, the flashes could blind any ordinary man up there. But he was Jacob Fenris. The man was used to it all.I kept staring at a few things in particular. The shade of pink and red smeared across his lips was barely noticeable. When he walked in, he carried a whiff of air smelling like 'cheese' with him. Needless to mention—he just made his secretary smile ear to ear, holding the clipboard. I could see her behind the curtains from where I was seated. Pathetic. "Today..." he announced loudly, breathing sharply with that annoying old man's snot inhale sound, "We will be a witness to one of the best, most powerful chemical miracles.

Elaine's POV I've been in my room for Goddess knows how long. Jean's health was declining. My ego, pride, and revenge were on the line. Which one weighed more?My son's life or my ego? What kind of a mother was I? Having that question pop into my mind was foolish in itself. "I'm such a loser..." I said to myself. A loser mother who can't even decide what to do. Just then, I got a call from Dr. Rayleigh. "Hello..." My voice was hoarse. I'd been crying. Again. I was also breaking my promise to Jean by crying and accepting my weakness. "I'm outside your room, Elaine. I've been knocking." He said calmly. "O-oh..." I scrambled to my feet, wiping tears away and patting my cheeks. Shouldn't look like I've been crying. "Sorry, it's just...I've been scrolling on the phone, haha." I lied, dangling the phone between us. I invited him in. "I heard what Dr. Taylor suggested. You should listen to her, but the decision is yours. I understand you." His kind words carried me away. Just last

The poet was happy. I never thought I'd be swayed with words ever again. But my son's doctor had me feeling some kind of way~ The breeze was gentle. The walk up the small hill to reach Fenris Mansion was brief and quiet. Yet it felt like a milestone. "Now we get to put our acting masks on." Said Dr. Rayleigh. I pulled up my black mask. The soft tissue, which mimicked the softness of linen, hugged my face. This small piece of cloth alone would be as expensive as the locket that hung on my neck all the time. Dr. Rayleigh truly believed in comfort. But just a little differently than I. "...yeah, yeah, I heard that. Just cancel the deal if they're not bringing profits, you bastard!" I was appalled to listen to the old, balding man so fluent with profanities. That was out of nowhere. As he exited the house for a walk, there was a young lady under his arm. Wait... "Wow, dude's full on cheating on his broad." Dr. Rayleigh said as he took pictures silently. I couldn't help but chuckl

The day was going bright. I was allowed to volunteer and follow around the top doctors for the day. It was part of my onboarding and training. I was allowed to pick whoever I wanted. I chose to observe Dr. Rayleigh. He's always on his feet. He had a seven-hour-long surgery today, and I was replacing an OR nurse. Precision was his strongest suit. I liked how he had the OR under control, too. The patient almost bled out. But the man behind the surgical mask had everything under control. Everything. Including me. "Dr. Rayleigh," I approached him near the sink. He was washing off blood from his forearms, sanitising. "You're an amazing doctor," I said first, to get him in a better mood. "Tell me something I don't know, Elaine." I could see his smirk from beneath his mask. "Of course, but maybe we should just call it a day after work. You've had a major surgery today." I said. "Is this about me having no energy for stalking Jacon Fenris today, Elaine?" He turned to me, eyebrow cocked

I say my goodbyes to the sweet young man and begin to leave to the palace at around midnight. The cat even begs me to stay with her, but I need to go back and not trouble my family anymore.As I walk up the citadel, ruining the back my dress with splutter of the mud as I walked, I see the guards running inside seeing me. They must have gone to inform the royals of my arrival.As I walled further up the little hill, the lights were turned on as I stare at the gate which was opening ever so slowly.I walk further and further, meeting Aaron.He seemed the mist stressed out of all.He couldn't wait for me to climb up the stairs, he runs to embrace me, crush me within his huge arms."Ah~ I'm so glad you're alright! Where have you been!?" He screams at me. His tone of voice makes my eyes sting as he apologizes almost immediately, pushing my head to his chest again. He holds my hand and walks me further upstairs.I am in front of my father who stares at me with anger in his eyes.Why was he

"Meow... meow..."I lift my head up from my knees. It was a cat meowing softly, like a purr but in a greeting way. I could make out the black texture and the little pink nose of the cat."Neko...?" An immense amount of memories surge through me. It was the same cat which I returned to the boy 12 years ago.Where was he?How old is this cat now?Did the owner abandon it? Is this poor thing roaming around by itself in this patch for more than a few years?Sniffling, I pick up the little cat. It stretched like liquid as it compressed again on my lap. It accepted my pets, letting its purs heal my heartache."You're so lucky." I can't believe I'm personifiying my condition to a cat."You don't have to deal with father figures who rule the state but can't understand what's going on with their daughters. So ignorant...""Who's ignorant?"*Gasp*Quickly getting on my toes, I twirl and see a young man, about my age. His eyes widen as he drops the logs on the side."Princess Ravine... what are

Love comes in different shapes and sizes.Mine comes in 10 inches of thickness.Covering my mouth, Aaron pounds into me while tears of ecstacy flowed down my temples. He had agreed to fuck me, only if I stayed quiet and said nothing about today to any of my cousins. He strictly tells me where I belong and how I was different from his family.I agreed on the condition too, and here we were at 2am with morning breaths and fucking each other."Mhph!" I exclaim, close to orgasming."Me too." He quietly whispers. As I clenched around him, his thrusts turned sloppy and the scent of our sex was flowing out from the comforter above him."Ah~ Ah, fuck." He groans softly, shooting his seeds into me.That was great.Especially with my mouth shut all throughout while he could moan and groan all he wanted in my ear."Asshole." Grumpily, I turn around and pull the comforter over my chest and try to catch some sleep. I intend to ignore him the entire day tomorrow, but as soon as his arms curl up aro

He stops his movements. I look at him staring at me with eyebrows crashed together."What happened?" I move my hips to gain some friction and ask him. He yanks my hand from his face, pulling out of me and wearing his clothes back. What the hell?"What are you—""Just think about your words again, Ravine. You're not being yourself. I'll be in the garden if you thought through yourself." Saying, he takes off the condom and throws it in the dustbin. Well, it was used and thrown away.I blink at the door he slams behind himself.What did I even do?Why's he mad at me?Is asking for sex and wanting to moan aloud a bad thing now? Since when did he start to think it's an issue to let everyone know we're having sex?An unreasonable amount of anger flows in me as I tuck myself to bed and sleep.Curse him. He doesn't know what I've been through with this tough family of royals. They're all stuck up, even more so than I can ever be.At midnight, I wake up feeling dizzy with hunger. I realised I

The lovely sight of my garden enthralled me. This garden was planted upon my request to my father, when I was really young."Papa?""Yes darling?""I want a garden beside my room.""Why do you want another garden beside your room, sweetness? Didn't papa do a good job with the one we have?""N-no! It's very good! But... big... and insects...""I get it now. Carlos! Bring the gardner to the throne. We have something to discuss."The gardener arrives, bowing to the King and the Princess who was me."My little bundle of sunshine here wants her own little garden. Do as she wishes.""Certainly, your highness. Little majesty, please follow me." And I go, to decide a Sakura in the middle of the garden and a bench under it. There was a street lamp too, as I requested. Yellow and glowing like a firefly in the middle of the night for my childhood fantasies.I often enacted a lot of Disney characters here... all by myself.You see, I'm the only royal of my age group. Everyone was either too old to

I must hate planes.I have a jet lag for which I can't understand why is it still evening around here. Aaron was quite alright, giggling and indulging in impulsive purchases all around the airport stores. Even if we came from the private lounge, we still had to mingle with the decent public around in the airport.Talk about being humble even if you're a princess of this kingdom.Today, I chose not to wear my goggles and scarf. I had nothing to hide in here, like the American society. I was safe. The safest I can be compared to any part of the world.Slowly, whispers started to fill in."Doesn't she look like our lost princess?""What's with the lost princess thing, Eugene? She's our princess! I can see it in her eyes! And who's that with her?""Maybe her boyfriend." The couple behind us talked, thinking they were whispering pretty low. I was amazed to know they don't know who Aaron was yet. When I see his disappointed face, I couldn't help but laugh."Oh my goodness, She's so pretty! I
