Julianne froze at the spot and held her breath as she looked at the one standing in front of her. Of all people, why him? She wondered.

“Shit!” she cursed in her mind and gulped instantly as he now moved away from the wall. It was as if he had been waiting for her to come up the stairs.

“You are Julianne Ashwynd, right?”

Julianne stared at the silver haired boy and blinked. It took her seconds before she realized she needed air and she released her breath.

Why did he approach her? And why here of all places?

She moved her eyes to look around, just in case without making it too obvious and she looked back at him. He was alone, approached her on purpose, but why?

“Julianne?”

Julianne blinked instantly and composed herself. Of all people, she couldn’t appear suspicious in front of him.

“Yes, I am Julianne,” she answered and waited. Each second felt like minutes that dragged itself out and she felt tensed.

“I heard you got sick.”

“H-How did you know?” she asked him.

“People talk a lot.”

  • Ashes and Bloodlines    An early visit

    The air shifted in the room and the window slightly creaked open. Julianne was lying fast asleep and the wind moved to where she was, brushing against her skin. She let out a slight groan and turned on the bed.“Julianne.”Her ears twitched at the whisper of her name and she opened her eyes slowly. Her eyes fell on a figure standing tall above her and she slowly raised her eyes to see a faceless person. She let out a scream immediately and woke up with a start, panting.The room was bright and she blinked to clear her eyes before placing a hand on her forehead. She let out a sigh and moved her eyes to the door when she heard a distant knock.*Marianne walked to the door and opened it.“Hi Jul—” she paused, as if frozen and she quickly closed her mouth, adjusting her glasses to see properly. “Hi,” she greeted Maximus who stood outside her room and wondered what he could possibly want from her so early in the morning.Realizing that her room was in view and she had not yet tidied it, s

  • Ashes and Bloodlines    They are coming

    Julianne stared down, deep in her own thoughts with her legs crossed on Marianne’s bed. She recalled the earlier encounter at the boy’s dormitory and she felt a cold chill run through her, causing goosebumps on her skin.At least she had thought Cassian was still somewhere close to good, because they shared a secret, but turns out that he is just like every of the others out there…another version of Shane. It’s only after they get what they want that they dispose someone off, not caring about what happens after and not caring the consequences of their actions. It’s sad.And maybe it was for good. At least, she had wanted to break off anything she had with him. But maybe it wouldn’t have been so sad if she hadn’t learnt that he was only using her, all along, just to get her blood.Marianne finished transferring the writeup from the paper to her book and she turned to look at Julianne. Noticing her mood, she pulled her brows slightly and turned her body on the chair to face her.“Julian

    Ryker looked at the two vampires that looked back at him, then he moved his eyes to Cassian who was on the floor. He saw the dark line that had formed on his skin, as if they were embedded inside, looking nothing less than a tattoo. At first thought, he wondered if he was safe in a room with them, or if they were plotting something.“Why did you bring me here?” he asked Remus who tilted his head a little to the side. “If you think you can hurt me here, then you are wrong,” he said and turned, about to make his way to the door but Maximus blocked him.“First, no one is hurting you. Second, we need you to help our friend,” he said, motioning his hand to where Cassian was.Ryker stood there, looking at Cassian and he said, “You want me to help him with what exactly?”Cassian let out a raspy laugh and tried to stand by placing a hand on the bed and lifting his leg. He managed to get on his feet but staggered a little and he said to Maximus with his eyes on Ryker, “If you want to help me,

    Cassian froze on the spot and then staggered to the back a little. He raised his eyes as he looked at Julianne who now stood from the table, oblivious of what she had just done to him.“You are all the same,” she said as she blinked back the tears in her eyes. “And you all disgust me.”She left him in the room and went to get Marianne. Without knocking, she opened the door and saw her on the floor with Remus, writing something from the textbook she had been looking for. Her eyes moved to Maximus who stood up and looked behind her before asking;“What about Cassian?”“He’s in his room,” she answered and walked to where Marianne was.“I need just a minute,” Marianne said as she kept writing on a sheet that was almost full. “All done,” she said and folded the paper neatly before getting up. “You better return the book to me before Monday so I can return it back to the library,” she said to Remus who waved a hand in the air.“Let’s get going,” Julianne said and pulled her along with her.

    People stared and whispered to each other as Maximus strolled down the rooms. He finally reached a door and opened it. The other boy was inside, hanging upside down the bed and he darted his eyes towards the door.“Our guests are here,” he said and raised himself up. “But why are you early, Maximus You said you had somewhere to go.”“I decided not to,” Maximus replied and moved his eyes to see Marianne flexing her shoulder. “Did he hurt you?” he asked, his eyes raising with concern.Marianne looked at him weirdly and replied, “No, I’m fine.”“Did something happen?” the boy asked. “I heard commotion outside but there is really nothing good about this place anyway. Who was it?”“Timothy,” Maximus answered and moved to the side of the room.“Oh that perv.”“Where is Cassian?” Julianne asked and the two boys looked at her.“Expecting you,” the other boy said with a raised tone. “His room is close by, but I can take you to him.”As the boy stood and made to walk, something fell off and mad

    “I like the length of your hair,” Marianne commented after glancing over Julianne’s hair since they started to head towards the boy’s dormitory.Julianne pushed the strands to the back of her ear and said to her, “Thanks.”“So, what is it you want from Cassian? Is it something he took from you? I was thinking you could report it rather than meeting his demands. He may see you as a pushover and Aurora isn’t going to back away either.”“I can’t report it,” Julianne said and pressed her lips together.Marianne stood in front of her, stopping her from walking further and she asked with concern, “Are you being threatened?”Julianne looked surprised as she didn’t expect that reaction from Marianne. She shook her head immediately and said, “I wish I could tell you right now, but I can’t. I’m sorry.”Marianne pulled her brows. “Is it something I can’t know? Something a friend cannot know? If that’s what I am to you.”Julianne blinked and felt like she was in the wrong. Does she really conside
