PORT
A week passed, and I learned a lot from Doom. I was the trainer, but I learned something from him as well. It was like we learned from each other. His progress in this training was also commendable. He was able to adapt to life in the Herald's Ville. He grasped the ways and works of a herald.
"I think you wouldn't last a week in Reaper's Lair if it's the exact opposite of my current situation," said Doom as we headed to the Herald Library.
"Yeah, I would agree. Life here in the Ville is harmless and secure,"
"Well, living in Reaper's Lair is not bad either. It's just that the lair is designed for Reapers only, hence its dark façad

Befallen: A Herald's Tale (BL) 12 - Pixie Realm
PORT We entered my room using a portal from the library. This time, I was able to see clearly the aftermath of that hellhole. In my years of being a Herald, I thought Fiery Realm—hell—was the worst place any angel Herald could leap. Things changed; now, in the gut of a whale. My whole room was filled with a stench smell. Our feet, drenching with a combination of digestive liquid and seawater, flooded the floor. I could not fathom the idea that I had been in the stomach of a marine beast. I checked my clothes, and all were stained with unrecognizable substances. "What's wrong?" Doom asked. I closed my eyes as I heard him. I inhaled so d

PORT I brought him here in the upside base to show the place as part of the training but not to date him. We aren't terrenes, to begin with. Whenever I visit the Terrene Realm, I am always fascinated with their concept of love. They thought they felt emotions toward someone, unbeknownst to them that Weavers exist. Weavers are tasked to look for the match of the soul of their subject. And their subject thought it was love. Not that I don't believe in love, but was it really possible for your heart to beat to someone without Weaver's intervention? "Are you done?" I asked Doom as he ran toward me.
Befallen: A Herald's Tale (BL) 14 - Above the Clouds
PORT I have observed terrenes for my entire life as a Keeper and a Herald. I knew how they express their feelings to their partners, how they court, how they date and become intimate. This, for me, was something new. I am an angel. I was not supposed to conform to this feeling called love. The Providence had orders for angels to take care of his creations, not to act like them. Not to follow what they are doing. Not to love terrenes, but to serve them. Not to love another angel, but work with them. Doom was sleeping soundly on my arms on a cold, cozy night. I looked at his face under the dim light, and he was wearing a smile. I fixed his hair, watche
Befallen: A Herald's Tale (BL) 15 - The Hearing
PORT “What’s bothering you?” Doom asked as he joined me in his bed. Three days had passed since his training period ended, and I had slept with him since then. I sighed. “Nothing,” “Come on, you can tell me,” “Let’s talk about you. You were a Weaver before; why did you choose to be reclassed and not rebirthed?” He looked up. “I don’t want to forget. I wanted to remember everything,” he answered. If an angel decided to be reclassed, it would be transferred to another class with new tasks and a set of
Befallen: A Herald's Tale (BL) 16 - Hidden Princess
EROS A week passed, Port had adjusted in my home. He knew how to prepare a meal, wash the dishes, clean the room, and even wash clothes. Port was quiet. He only responds when asked or called—he doesn't start a conversation with me unless he wants to watch television. It doesn't matter. I wanted a peaceful life in my sanctuary. I wanted serenity, and he doesn't have a place to stay, so it's a win-win situation for the two of us. With this, I was able to focus on my artwork. My recent scandal died down as the CCTV footage was released, I freely gained back my integrity. But I know I was far from being safe from my critics and haters. I could accept every criticism of my artwork, but lies and fake accu
Befallen: A Herald's Tale (BL) 17 - Like a Wallflower
EROS I learned to cook when I was 13 years old. Sister Felisa and Sister Cora taught me how to cook. It was embarrassing because I had ruined at least five pans, broke multiple china, and got cuts and burns in the process. I couldn't tell whether I was good or not, but at least I knew how to prepare a meal for myself. Sister Felisa told me that even men should know how to cook—even do other house chores. She told me that I should be equipped. Because one day, I'll be alone and I have to take care of myself. I wasn't prepared. Three years later, when she said those words, Sister Felisa and other sisters died on a terrible fire while I was overseas for an art expo. My life went in shambles. I couldn't

EROS The air was cold, and the night was old. Port and I are still standing at the rails of the roof deck. Nothing's great to view in here, just pure darkness and serenity. "Aren't you tired?" I asked without looking. We've been standing here for so long, I lost track of time. "I'm not," he replied. "For once, I also wanted to be like you," From my peripherals, I could see him shift his position and face me, "Why would you want to be like me?" "I wanted to forget everything,"
Befallen: A Herald's Tale (BL) 19 - Blurry Image
EROS The world is but a blurry image. I opened my eyes and saw the ceiling in my room. Am I dreaming? Was that a dream? I closed my eyes again; I tried to recall what had happened. "I think he's awake," Perth said in a whisper tone. Why was he here? I opened my eyes widely and saw Perth, Ara, and Port looking at me. "Why are you here?" I said, my throat was dry. "Are you okay, Eros? Do you feel any pain in your body?" Ara asked. Her voice was trembling, worried sick.
