For few seconds, Marianne saw Julianne as a different person and not the same person she knew before. Something has changed in her and it was evident with the way she somehow convinced her to ask Maximus about Cassian’s past, knowing fully well that if she were to ask Cassian directly, she wouldn’t get it from him.

“What did Maximus say?” Julianne asked as her eyes searched her face as if looking for the very answer.

Marianne swallowed and lowered her eyes, hesitant to reveal it. She doesn’t kn

  • Ashes and Bloodlines    Ghost search

    Tears burst from Julianne’s eyes as she ran out of the dorm and through the academy grounds. Painful sobs broke from her lips and she wiped her face as she ran to wherever her legs would take her. She hadn’t meant to do that to them. She hadn’t meant to leave them, but that was the only way they wouldn’t get hurt. It was the only way she could make sure no one dies because of her anymore.She made her way to the forest grounds and stopped, exhausted from it all. She gripped the cloth around her chest tightly and looked up at the moonlit sky. With tear-blurred vision, she roared, “It’s me you want! You can stop hurting the people around me. I’m so sick and tired of everything so just take me instead. Do you hear me?! Come now and end this shitty endless cycle!”She fell to her knees and dropped her head down. She’s surrendering, and she hoped they would come fast.The forest grounds soon began to echo with footsteps and it kept getting closer. Julianne knew she had been surrounded, an

  • Ashes and Bloodlines    The darkness awakens

    The room started to become suffocating. Julianne remained motionless with her eyes still fixed on the book that turned out to be headmistress Eldryn’s personal journal. “You are the last Ashblood.” Remus words kept repeating in her head.Was that really what she was?Maximus’ gaze lingered on the journal before he finally let out a sigh. “There has to be more. The ending doesn’t feel complete.”“That’s because the headmistress decided to take it to her grave,” Cassian said. He sounded even more angry than he looks.Maximus took the book and opened it in front of him. He went over the last page and read the last line again. Then suddenly, his brows drew together.“Wait…”“What is it?” Remus asked.Cassian looked at him.Maximus lifted the journal closer and ran his thumb along the edge of the page. “This…” his expression hardened. “A page has been torn out.” “What?” Remus pulled his brows and leaned closer as Maximus carefully spread the journal open.The page had indeed been torn ve

  • Ashes and Bloodlines    The last Ashblood

    “She was the real monster. I met her again, but this time, she wasn’t as old as the last. How did I know she was the one? The pattern was just the same as the last, but this time, something seemed to have changed. The mark on her skin…it burned me the moment I tried to touch her. She was lethal. And she was slowly poisoning the others. No matter how many times I tried to stop her, she came back again. Not twice, not thrice…I couldn’t understand it. How can there be many like her? Then for the first time after the second and third, I manipulated an incubi into seeing through her mind, and all I got were more questions.‘From the Ashes, we will rise again’.It all started to make sense after so many years. I realized I could be the key to ending this curse, but I hesitated. I’m only human after all. It was the only thing that kept me sane because I knew I hadn’t lost my humanity. I only wanted to get rid of the bloodline, not the ones who were affected.I realized if there were none a

  • Ashes and Bloodlines    Where the curse started

    “Where are we going?” Lena asked once they left the dorm.“The computer lab,” Julianne answered. Lena pulled her brows slightly, not quite understanding why they have to go there. She asked, “Do you have someone outside you want to talk to?”“Not anymore.”Her response came so easily and Lena decided not to ask any further.They broke into the lab and Julianne went to a computer, already turning it on. Lena watched out for any intruder and soon came to check what she was doing.“Is there any way to get all the students email?” Julianne asked her.Lena pulled her brows. “What are you trying to do?” she asked.“War is imminent. I’m going to extend the break so the other students won’t get dragged into it.”Lena was surprised at such a brilliant idea. She hadn’t given any thoughts about those that went home not until Julianne mentioned it.“The headmistress’ account,” she quickly said. “How do we get that?”Lena smiled and moved closer before tapping on the keyboard. “Luckily, I know o

    “I can’t get angry even if I want to. Everything seems so unfair to me, and all I can do is nothing.”Julianne sounded so depressed. The skin on her forehead pulled as she stood and she gave her one last look before turning her feet toward the door.“It wasn’t me,” Velvet spoke before she would leave. “I didn’t do it, Julianne. You have to believe me. These prints…”Julianne stopped, and Cassian paid more attention to what she was about to say. He knows she isn’t the one, even though the evidence points to her as she is the only owner of the print.Velvet sighed and said, “It’s how I communicate with the other hunters. It’s my lead in the forest and their lead to me. I know I’ve done some bad things and I regret it too, but your mother, Marianne…and Fiona…it wasn’t me who killed them.”Julianne turned to look at her and didn’t seem to believe her. “It has been hard for me too, you know? Being born into a cult family like that where all they do is hunt down those that are slightly dif

  • Ashes and Bloodlines    Wrath of Ashblood

    Velvet knew that Cassian doesn’t joke with his words, and that he meant it when he said he had no use of her. But even if that was true, she couldn’t let them return her to the hunters, not because of what she fears they might do to her, but because she fears what they were plotting.“You can’t do that,” she finally said with a slight plea. “Then watch me,” Cassian threatened further and started to head toward the door.She started to panic inside and before things would get out of hand, she moved her eyes to Julianne who started walking toward her. Then she started to apologize.“I’m really sorry, Julianne, for everything, and about Mari—Ah!”Cassian halted once his hand moved to the door handle and he turned. His brows pulled slightly when he realized what had just happened.Julianne was already consumed by rage and before Velvet would finish speaking, she landed a hard blow across her face.Velvet tasted blood and she felt a hard sting on her face. She moved her head and looked at

  • Ashes and Bloodlines    Why would you suspect me?

    Julianne was already panting when she reached the front desk of the dorm. The woman looked at her and asked, “Is there anything you want?”“I think someone broke into my room,” she said and tried to catch her breath.The woman looked at her like the calmest person in the whole school, then she aske

  • Ashes and Bloodlines    The devil they say he is

    Julianne hasn’t seen Cassian for days now since the freshman party. Although, she has seen Remus and Maximus walking together, but it was odd for some reason that he was not with them. Also, she noticed lately that Marianne has stopped covering up her neck and has been hanging out with the other tw

    Cassian stared at the same spot for seconds and his jaw twitched. He blinked and pulled the corner of his lips a bit. Finally, he asked her another question, one that was unrelated to what she said, “Did Tim do or say anything to you the other day you came to the dorm?”Julianne wasn’t expecting a

    “How are we going to figure out Julianne? Any plans tonight?” Maximus asked Cassian who was busy dressing up. His hair was still damp from just getting out of shower and from the looks of it, he doesn’t intent on drying it.“It’s freshman party, Max. I would rather not do anything tonight,” replied
