SHADOWED SALVATION
Who are you?" I sluttered, attempting to take a step back but my feet seemed rooted to a spot.
The mysterious man smiled, his eyes glinting in amusement, "I am someone who knows you," he said, his voice dripping with an otherworldly intensity. "I am someone who has been waiting for you."
I looked around, I was surrounded by lifeless Bodies, slaughtered brutally by something worse than a monster, "What happened here?" I asked, struggling to keep my voice steady.
The mysterious man chuckled, the sound sending shivers down my spine. "They are dead, you killed them all." He said, his eyes glistening in happiness, "You've become the person I knew you would be."
I felt a pang, I looked at my hands, they were covered with blood. However, the question remains: did I really kill all these people? If yes… then who am I?

Chapter: CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHT: THE END, BUT THE BEGINNING.🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀I woke up with a cold pain spreading across every part of my body, I remember the angel telling me I might die from the pain if it was too much to bear, and yes, I agree that I almost died, I don't get why I'm still alive.My spirit is just so stubborn and it wouldn't be dismissed.I looked down at my tummy and noticed a scar, it was the exact spot where I stabbed Alastor, he died and I got a scar from the effect of the pain.I looked around; I wasn't where I collapsed.“How did I get here?” I whispered.“I brought you back,” Bruno's voice sounded behind me.“Come, everyone is waiting for you.”“What about Alastor's body?” I murmured.Bruno walked closer, “I'm sorry Melonie, I couldn't even find his toenail, he disappeared into thin air like he never existed.”“And ASHERA?” I stated.“I hid it somewhere safe,” he responded. “I'm sorry Melonie, you had to kill your own twin brother to save us all; I know it was hard for you.”“Try not to remind me, I'm trying to for

Chapter: CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVEN: IN THE END, HE'S MINE.🥀 CLARA'S POV 🥀What a lonely morning after being surrounded by couples all night.Bruno and Othello, Dracula and Lavanya, both couples heartlessly doing rubbish.My eyes hurt from rolling them all night as soon as I see them flirt and my lips hurt from pouting as soon as I see them kiss.I was standing alone in between two couples and it was so frustrating.I got up from bed, not like I got any sleep.As I sat in the quiet stillness of the morning, my mind began to wander to Arlo. Memories of our time together flooded my thoughts, and I couldn't help but smile.I remembered the way he used to make me laugh, the way his eyes would sparkle with mischief when he was teasing me. I remembered the way he would hold my hand, his fingers intertwined with mine in a gentle, loving grasp.As I sat there, lost in thought, I could almost feel his presence around me. I could smell him, and hear the sound of his voice whispering in my ear. It was as if he was right here with me, and my heart swel

Chapter: CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SIX: TOGETHER FOREVER.🥀 LAVANYA'S POV 🥀The sky above was a brilliant blue, not a cloud in sight. The sun shone brightly, casting a warm glow over the landscape. A gentle breeze rustled through the trees, carrying the sweet scent of blooming flowers.The air was crisp and clean, with a hint of freshness that invigorated the senses. The temperature was just right, neither too hot nor too cold, making it perfect for outdoor activities.As I stepped outside, I felt a sense of joy and upliftment wash over me. The clear sky and good weather seemed to lift my spirits, filling me with a sense of possibility and promise.The world seemed to come alive on days like this, with every colour appearing more vibrant, every sound clearer, and every sensation more intense. It was as if the good weather had awakened a sense of wonder and magic in the world.I took a deep breath, feeling the fresh air fill my lungs, and gazed up at the clear blue sky. It was a moment of pure happiness, a moment to savour and enjoy. And I

Chapter: CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIVE: THE DEATH OF THE EVIL TWIN.🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀With a bright light that almost left us blind, Our Alpha Vargus disappeared, alongside Angel Gabriel.Leaving us, broken and lonely.Honestly, I wanted to close my eyes and never wake up, because just when we were almost at the end, things became unbearable.We lost a lot of people on this journey, and I feel like I'm the one to blame.If only I hadn't walked into this world, or maybe if I wasn't too stubborn and had not gone in search of my father if only I hadn't resurrected Arwan or if I hadn't gotten attached to Alastor and killed him when I had the chance rather than praying for a change, things wouldn't have graduated into this.We were mourning too many people, because of me.I walked closer to Clara who crumbled underneath a table weeping.“Clara,” I called softly.“Get away from me,” she retorted, breathing heavily.She hasn't tasted food or water for a while, and I was starting to think she might probably die before Arlo returns.“Arlo would be here soon,

I might want Arlo alive but I don’t want you dead.”“Are you sure about that?” I asked sadly, “Clara, are you sure you mind me dying for Arlo to come back to life? I never existed to you.”“But that doesn't mean I want you dead,” she cried out, slamming her eyes shut as tears poured, “I might have been too occupied with Arlo finally being with me but that doesn't mean I don't notice that you are around Vargus.”“You have 10 seconds to change your mind, if not the process would begin.” Angel Gabriel declared.I looked back at him with tears-fille

I was just not in the mood for anything.It was day two since what happened to Arwan and it was still so fresh, I should have been angry and filled with energy for revenge but I was weak and lonely, extremely tired of fighting.Soon I began to hear voices but I was determined to not leave the room or fight.It started as a warning that something was happening, and soon it increased.Rather than going out to check, I covered my ears to reduce the noise.I heard Othello screaming and desperately calling Bruno’s name, I heard Lavanya weeping while screaming Dracula’s name, I heard Alpha Vargus’s yells and finally, I heard Clara weeping.“I’m tired of fighting,” I murmured cuddling myself tightly.I heard a loud bang on my door, “Melonie…” Clara screamed, “You have to help us, Alastor is here for Ashera.”I jingled my head, “No, I won’t fight anymore,” I whispered to m

YOU WILL NEVER BE MY GOD, FELIX.
What is obsession?
Am I obsessed?
At first, I was just his substitute, then I became his real bride, then the supposed real bride returned, and I was kidnapped, tortured, and forced to divorce.
Then I committed suicide because I couldn’t handle it, but I didn’t fucking die.
Then I became a stalker of my ex-husband, who barely remembers me because I was declared dead by the world, and my face got melted down when acid was poured on me. I had a surgery that changed my whole face and my entire identity.
Then I started working for him again and he fell in love with the new me, yet still traumatized by the old me, so I had to reveal to him that I was the same person. He was happy and relieved, but the world wasn’t. We were chewed on, spat out, and stepped on.
Then he was fired from his company by his grandmother, who adopted a new son to take over the company.
Then I was kidnapped again, and bombs were planted on me. We were able to defuse the bomb and escape.
Then we were shot in the head by God knows who.
His surgery was successful, but mine wasn’t, so I forgot everything about him and was forbidden to remember because a damn bullet is stuck in my head that could kill me if it moves to a sensitive part of my brain.
Then suddenly, he was on the TV, framed for murder. I couldn’t hold back, I found myself in prison fighting for him with a gun in my hand, and somehow ended up in a coma, because the damn bullet in my head shifted… to the wrong direction.
Then, in between this chaos, the doctor announced I-was-pregnant.

Just then, Scott rushed in.“Where are the ladies?” He asked. I ignored him, and Greg simply pointed in a direction.“I don't see anything,” Scott argued and was ignored again. “How can both of them collapse at the same time? Suspicious.”“What's suspicious about it?” Greg retorted. “Perhaps we are the ones lacking a heart.”“They are just the same thing,” Scott scoffed, shaking his head.After hours of waiting, nurses and doctors walked out of the ER, and we rushed towards them.“Are they dead?” Scott blurted out.“Scott!” Greg and I yelled at him, and

Grace!"I lunged forward, the scream tearing from my chest, but an iron grip locked around my shoulder and yanked me back. It was Felix, his face a grim mask of dirt and terror."Stop! You can't!" he muttered, his voice raw. “It's dangerous; the killers might still be around.”I fought him with a desperate, frantic strength I didn't know I possessed. My muscles screamed as I tried to rip free, my focus laser-locked on the still form just a few yards away. "Let me go! She's right there!" I pleaded, my voice breaking into a sob.A bulletproof car filled with Felix’s men parked in front of us, and everyone rushed in. Felix, scared we might be harmed again, lifted me from the ground and threw me into the car, before he jumped in himself.*** 🦋 ***Getting to our mansion, the report was already on the news, and we all stood to watch

My hands were clasped so tightly in my lap that my knuckles were white. My lawyer placed a reassuring hand on my arm, which Felix was gawking at with an expressionless face from where he sat.The judge cleared his throat, the sound amplified in the heavy silence. "Will the defendants please rise?"Nikita and I pushed ourselves to our feet, our legs trembling beneath us."Ms. Benita Celestine," the Judge began, his voice deep and measured, "You have been charged with one count of voluntary manslaughter in the death of Reyna Fred. The court has heard testimony from numerous witnesses and considered the arguments presented by both the prosecution and the defense."He paused, letting his gaze sweep across the room before settling once more on me.

You confessed to everything in court; there's no saving you.”“From the very beginning, you took the case the wrong way. There would be no case if you had come out plain; it was self-defense. But now, it's a cold, aggravated murder,” Scott voiced, slapping his forehead dramatically.“Is there really no way to spin this around?” I asked, frustrated.“No! They want a murderer; we have to give them one,” the lawyer explained. “We can easily say you only did what you did because of the pressure of having your friend hanged. You only wanted to save her.”“She's my sister!” Nikita argued.“Whatever…

CUPID'S DARN CURSE.
Cupid shot me in my leg… and I tripped and fell on my face.
🦋 CATALINA 🦋
Was told to run and never look back when love finds me. I dared to ask what happens if I don’t.
“Blood will follow your every step.” She said.
So I tried to run, but Corvin chased me down!
Now, I’m stuck with a murderer, thief, psychopath, sex addict, smoker, a manipulator, and a vampire, and I’m screwed.
Yet, he isn’t my only problem. There’s one other person like him lurking in the shadow, an extremely handsome unpredictable stepbrother I had to leave home to escape from, a professor who acts like I’m an enemy who stole something precious from him in our past life, a top in the class genius who basically follows me around like a puppy, a school bully who makes my life unbearable for entirely no reason and a creepy neighbor who I feel like is stalking every fucking step I take.
All I can say is they are not all humans; some are werewolves, some are vampires, and some are just terrible, unpredictable humans.
Stranded in an Oscar winning dangerous city and a school with zero rules, all because of Cupid’s Darn Curse.
Trigger warning: Jsyk, this book may be triggering, concerning, and thought-provoking. It’s a very complicated one; it’s dark, heartless, and unforgiving.
I, the author, shamelessly declare, “I wouldn’t be holding back.”
This novel might come across as raw and electrifying. If you decide to continue, know that I love you and truly appreciate your support.
Now, please leave your integrity just around the corner so you can pick it up later, and let’s get naughty.
“This is so much fun!” in Yumeko’s voice.

I’m literally cursed and screwed.Somehow, I always end up in crises. More like, ‘Catalina Cursed Theodore.’Every second I turn around, Rook the bully is ogling at me so intensely, it's uncomfortable, so I just choose not to look in his direction, not even by mistake.He stated I’m marked. Magnus, the leader of Asmodeus' heir, declares so heartlessly, I owe him a death. My neighbor is freaking creepy, and Corvin, that godforsaken vampire, definitely wants my blood.

Chapter: 007 – A SCHOOL WITH ZERO RULES.🦋 CATALINA 🦋Stepping into the grand entrance of the academy, I felt a rush of anticipation mingling with the weight of expectation. The heavy metal swings open with a resonant clang, and on it is carved, ‘Skill craft music academy.”I can barely focus, my mind is clouded with memories of how the leader of Asmodeus' heir, Magnus, knows my name, and stated with no remorse whatsoever that I owe him a death, which means he’s definitely coming to kill me. And why Corvin reacted the way he did, demanding I stay away from Magnus, just after trying to kill me himself. I wish so badly to go back to when I wasn’t involved with them.A lady clearing her throat gets my attention, and I look up to find three ladies standing in front of me.“Hi!” a chubby, chocolate lady waves at me. She has her hair styled in an all-back braid, dressed in a short body-hug party dress. “I’m Tamara, a new student.”“She’s Yumeko,” Tamara says, pointing at a slim, averagely tall lady with a creepy smile on her fac

The urge to pee is almost overwhelming, my bladder screaming in protest as if it’s been possessed by a tiny furious demon.The harsh grip on my hair holds me in place, forcing me to look into the eyes of the Asmodeus heir’s squad leader. His eyes bore into mine, seeming to see right through me, to the very marrow of my bones.I’m trying to breathe, but my lungs feel like they are constricting, squeezing the air out of me. My mouth is dry, and my tongue feels like sandpaper as I try to swallow. I’m shivering under his grip, I can feel it, and I’m sure he can feel it too.He points the gun at my forehead. I can swear he’s grinning like a devil underneath his mask as he cocks his gun. I slam my eyes shut, waiting for the impact. This is where I perish, home, home to Jesus, my maker.Suddenly, instead of a gunshot, I hear a voice right beside him, in front of

It’s currently mysterious to us how these lovely, hardworking officers died, so the FBI is currently trying to unravel the case, after they swore to get to the bottom of this. But we found some claw marks on their bodies and something that seems like an animal’s bite mark. Remember, if the police aren’t safe, no one is… be alarmed.

I still am not able to get over the traumatic scene that happened yesterday.Goosebumps mixed with electric shock swallows me as I stroke my neck.

Chapter: 004 – SEEING THE DEVIL UP CLOSE.🦋 CATALINA 🦋As soon as my hands and legs came loose, I almost ran towards the front door to scream at the police that I am in trouble, but nothing guarantees he won’t kill the officers and kill me too. I’ve seen what he has done, so I know what he can do. And if he is indeed a vampire, I doubt even 10,000 police officers can stand up to him.I have just one chance, and if I screw it up, I’m tonight’s dinner.Instead of running towards the police and putting us all in trouble, I hold him instead and run towards the bedroom to hide him in my closet. Hopefully, he sees that as a good thing and doesn't kill me by the end of today.I run back to the sitting room, hide the chair and rope, and walk towards the front door with a fake smile on my face.“Hi,” I mutter, hiding my pale wrist from the effect of the tight robe behind my back. “How may I help you, officers?”Two officers stood at the door with a wide, friendly smile on their faces. “That took a while,” says the one by the right.

It takes a lot of effort from me to not get up from the chair I am sitting on and walk over to her to lick the blood off her neck.I felt something strange and powerful when I had a taste of her blood; it was like it awakened all the lifeless bones in my body, like it washed the rust off my veins. In addition, it was irresistible and delicious.When I was standing in front of this house, it looked like the perfect hiding place, so I was contemplating how to go in and get rid of whoever or whatever was in the house when a very little girl dressed in black pants and a black hoodie threw the gate open and stood at the entrance staring straight into my eyes.I expected her to run just like a normal human would out of fear, and I was getting prepared to chase her down and pluck her heart out, but she did something stupid instead; she widened the gate to let me in.That sparks my curiosity, and I’ve been
