LOGINSORAYA
"If you think we will be best forming bonds, and sitting through bonfires then you are sorely mistaken! You need to understand that we are in survival mode here, Adele!"By the time I entered the house, I noticed that it had been arranged, even the rooms upstairs were sparkling bright.A fireplace burnt just by the side of the living room, and a shelf had been brought with selected books lined in height order.I didn't know what it meant to be part of the Gala team, buSORAYA "Girl, where have you been? You missed out on what happened not quite long ago!" Adele beamed at me as I entered the room. Dolly scoffed at my presence, but I didn't really mind because I was in a dilemma. I had been trying to reach Quinn but she wasn't picking my calls. I feared the worst had happened, and as much as I wanted to go back to the settlement. I knew I couldn't because the royal soldiers will be there, and what if they caught me? Daryl's threat still rang at the back of my head and honestly I just wanted to dip and get the hell out of eden. But I couldn't, because of this silly sense of responsibility that cling to me like a second skin. I really hoped Quinn wasn't dead. "Soraya, are you okay?" Adele asked me. I sighed, pulling out my dagger from my sides and laying it on the table beside my bed, before I finally sat on my bed. "I'm fine." Dolly looked at me, her eyes glinting with curiosity or more like she was suspicious of me. "W
DARYL I had followed her, and I had seen. The prickling in my chest at the betrayal I felt was not hurt... far from it. It was anger. Pure, unyielding anger that could only be quenched if I had blood on my fingers. I had told Soraya to meet me in the library, as if speaking to her would change what I saw. I did have a penchant for doing ridiculously stupid things anyway. Her scent hit me before I even saw her. Stupid, adulterated scent, yet still distracting enough to have my wolf senses purring in my head. I flexed my fingers in my gloves as she finally came to me. She was dressed in her signature black slacks and black shirt, her curls falling over her shoulders. I was going to confront her, but it felt more like I was being seduced. I could see the outline of the dagger strapped to her belt. "I'm only here because you seem to have a misconstrued notion of me." I scoffed at her words. "Since when have you ever cared about what I
SORAYA What was it about trouble that seemed to follow me everywhere I went? "Good morning, soldiers." I scoff at the title. It is 6:30 in the evening, and we are all here standing under the looming moonlight like a tribute waiting to be offered. "Yeah, right," I hear Dolly say with a scoff beside me. Also what I was thinking. Our instructors today are the two palace instructors Sir Sinclair had been bragging about — the very best, he'd said. One is tall enough to block out the sun, and the other looks like she belongs on a magazine cover rather than behind a sword. They both had a sword strapped to their waist."Alright, listen up," the tall one barked, his voice carrying across the training grounds. "I'm Commander Aldric, and this is Lieutenant Vale. Today we will work on your sword skills." Lieutenant Vale stepped forward, her piercing blue eyes scanning our formation with undisguised disdain. "Because with the petty training you've undergone as stude
SORAYA I was falling... I couldn't help it, and then i landed with Ethan's pendant clutched in my hands. How the hell do I even have it with me? It was the same place I had seen the first vision. Plain, and void of anything living. "You are here again." The voice was the same as the last one, but it was much closer this time, like she was right in my ear. I stayed calm. "Who are you, and why am I here again?" "One question at a time little girl, I am no robot." I rolled my eyes, wondering if she could see the act. "Who are you?" A low chuckle. "It is quite unfortunate that you don't recognise my voice, I remember I spoke to you when you turned 5. Filthy human memory," she scoffed, "and so fragile." "I'm quite sure you didn't bring me here to insult me now, did you?" I was a bit braver this time. Not that the strange voice didn't scare me, but at least I had my comeback ready most especially because I needed answers and the weird voice was probably the
SORAYA When Daryl came back with the healer, he stepped back to allow her to do her job. The healer — Miss Lena — held up her fingers. "Can you see this movement, Karter?" She asked, wiggling them. I wanted to roll my eyes because obviously I could see her fingers, but I didn't. I nodded instead. "Good. Do you feel any pain?" I shook my head. "Good. You are discharged then. You can get a tonic potion at the pharmacy just to be safe. My work here is done." She smiled and walked away, leaving Daryl and I alone. "Soraya—" I was already off the bed. "Where are you going?" He asked. "To find Ethan Farrow." "You just passed out twice." "I'm aware." I found my shoes at the foot of the bed and reached for them. "Which is exactly why I need to find Ethan Farrow." He was quiet for a moment. Then he fell into step beside me as I walked out of the clinic without being invited. "I didn't ask you to come," I said flatly. "I know." He didn'
Back in Elroy... SORAYA Being a supernatural thrives on just one feeling—rage—and to be like them even as a human, you must learn to channel yours as well. There were a lot of scenarios going on in my head, on why Ethan Farrow had Ilana on her knees, his dagger to her throat, and a murderous intent in his eyes. But none of them seemed plausible, as I thought they at least got along better than he with Daryl. "Put that dagger down, Farrow." Daryl didn't move from where he stood, he was still dangerously close to me, even though his hold had dropped from my waist. The music had stopped, and the students had scrambled out, leaving only a few onlookers, and even they were inching out carefully. Cowards. "She has something of mine, and until she gives it back, she's at risk of her blood exhausting on my dagger, and even you, cannot stop me, Prince," Ethan responded darkly. Ilana was strangely calm. In fact, I could swear she had a smile on her face despite her se
SORAYAIt's been two weeks since I arrived at Fenrir, and I had nothing to show for it. I had learnt nothing about the Prince, perhaps except his infuriating smirk and intoxicating scent.When I woke up this morning, I was met with a distraught and it distracted me. First, I had woken up so late th
SORAYA"Oh, dear heavens! It is the crown Princess."I walked into the cafeteria along with Adele, who kept skipping around and jumping in excitement."I am trying to understand what you mean by it is the crown Princess, and why you are acting like you have won a lottery," I spat at my roommate wit
DARYL“Who are rogues?”I puffed out a breath of frustration. I was not listening to the teacher at all. My concentration was on a certain hazel-eyed witch who was going about her day like nothing had happened. Her whole presence in Fenrir Academy was a lie. If I could just block out the feelings
People tend to forget stories whenever they are desperate. It was why there was a dead body laying at the Prince’s feet when he woke that day. Someone had tried to kill him and had stupidly touched his hands, thereby leading to a disastrous death. Had they easily forgotten that the Alpha Prince’s t
