"You know, don't you?" I took a deep breath. His gaze was still on me. "What do you mean—" "Don't play dumb," he cut me off, and I swallowed. "I..." I paused and stared at the ground. "I don't know much... I don't know yet." "Do you know who I am?" I shook my head. "I know you're not normal." I looked up. "But I don't know why." His eyes flashed silver as I tried to read his expression, but came up empty. "I know your eyes change color because of your emotions. But I don't know what it means." As the room fell silent, he averted his gaze. ******* On her first day on campus, Rayline Hale, an average girl just starting college, never thought her world would change. That's when she meets Cole Spencer, a handsome young man who seems to be every girl's walking nightmare. With his cold stare and mysterious aura, Cole is a young man unlike any other. But behind his frightening appearance, Cole hides a secret that Rayline cannot understand. He is no ordinary man. This is the beginning of an adventure that will change Rayline's entire life. He opens the door to a world far beyond her imagination, where supernatural creatures roam and ancient secrets shroud human reality. The deeper Rayline digs for clues, the clearer the hidden truth becomes. But the closer she gets to Cole, the stronger her feelings for him become. The love that grows between them seems magical, though Rayline is terrified. How can she love someone who is not human?
View MoreI slowly opened my eyes to the blinding light from the sun coming in through the window and rolled over as I lay down. I breathed and looked around the room, only to find it empty, then sat up, holding the sheets over my chest as I turned to look at the mattress. I noticed the claw marks and tears scratched on it and smiled sheepishly to myself. Oh, right, I did that last night. He and I. I'm just about to get up when I hear the doorknob turn and there's Cole, shirtless and in sweatpants, carrying a small tray of food, looking up to see me awake. "Hi, good morning," he grinned and walked to the edge of the bed. "Morning," I said with some confusion. "What's that?" "Breakfast." He placed the tray on the sheets with an adorable smile, a stark contrast to his shirtless body. How could anyone be cute and sexy at the same time? "You don't have to bring it here." "It's no big deal. You could say that I paid you back for the time you took care of me," he said, and I let out a little gig
His eyes flashed a deep magenta again and I leaned closer to press my lips to his. He placed his hands on my waist as his kisses began to move down to the nape of my neck, giving it a gentle peck before drifting over my collar to my shoulders, the sensation of his heavy breathing making me shiver. He reaches for my bra strap, lifting it back to lock eyes with me as his fingers play with it, as if asking permission to remove it, to which I nod. He slides the straps over my shoulders before his hands move down my back, running over my skin before finding my bra clasp and undoing it, letting it fall from my chest and fall to the side. His breath was heavy as he looked at me in admiration and I had to fight the strong urge to cover myself. He slowly leans down and presses his kisses to my chest, his lips tracing my skin before pushing me down onto the sheets. His hands cupped one of my breasts, massaging it gently, and I gasped. He moved lower, his tongue planting a kiss before taking my
The atmosphere in front of the house was almost pitch black when I stopped and I was breathing heavily. Taylor offered to accompany me, but I declined, telling him that I wanted to talk to Cole alone. With a nod, he left, leaving me standing in front of the dimly lit doorway. The sound of a knock echoed in the silent night, and after a tense minute, Cole opened the door, shock clearly visible on his face. "Hey," I greeted him, concern etched into my face. "Hey. What are you doing here?" he asked, stepping forward. "I, um... I wanted to talk to you." Then he furrowed his brow, but he could sense the tension of the situation and invited me to come in. I stepped into the living room, darkness enveloping the familiar surroundings. Then he closed the door behind me, leaving the house noticeably quiet. "Is something wrong?" he asked, coming over to me. "Cole," I began, meeting his gaze, "why didn't you tell me?" "Tell you what?" He said with a confused look on his face. "About your
"So where have you been all day?" My mom asked me as I walked into the house."I... uh-" I stuttered at first, not sure what to say. I tried to think of a better excuse."And who were you kissing in the car?" Then my father stood up, cutting me off."What, are you guys spyin' on me now?" I replied with a snort."You're not supposed to sneak around and hide things," he said, and I scoffed."So I can't have a personal life?""Not if you're not honest," my mom said, and my hand dropped to my side."You're acting like I'm a fifteen-year-old girl. You're worried about me kissing someone when I could be sneaking off to do drugs." I said it, I was annoyed at them, they really thought I was still a kid."Really?" my father asked, his eyebrows raised as if he was emphasizing, not asking."No!" I shouted, and they let out a sigh of relief. "Jeez, I'm just out for the day.""Okay, so what exactly happened last night?" My dad demanded."I...I slept over at Darren's, and...I hung out with Cole all
For a moment I felt his arms tighten around me, his wings wrapped around both of us as if to provide a layer of comfort. "Don't you get it?" he snapped. "What I just did was a declaration of war! Why do you think I always hold back when I get attacked?" "They know they'll get killed if they go after you. Why is that a bad thing?" Jesse asked, and I could see the flash of confusion in his eyes. "Or they'll send someone else to kill me!" Cole shouted and the atmosphere became tense. Jesse swallowed and turned his face away. "He's right, Jesse. They probably think he's too dangerous," Chase said in a calm tone. "Then just get his superiors to tell them to let you go," Jesse said again, trying to make a suggestion. "Like who?" Cole stared at him, and things got even more heated. "Dad," Jesse answered without hesitation, and I saw the confusion on Cole's face. "Very funny," Cole sarcastically laughs, showing his disbelief. "I'm serious," Jesse insists. "What? You want me to ask my
At that moment, I stopped in front of him and slowly raised my hand. He growled, making me pause for a moment before I placed my hand on the side of his face. Little by little, I saw the beast begin to fade away, and he gradually came to himself. His features gradually returned to the way they were, his skin color changing and spreading to his chest and arms, and he raised his hand to place it on top of mine. The horns and fangs were still there, as were the red eyes, but I could see that his mind had calmed now, and he took a deep breath. Then, without waiting, I wrapped my arms around him and held him tightly while he was still in shock. "I thought they were going to kill you," I whispered as I held him, and I felt his arms wrap around me. As I pulled away, I noticed that there was a small trail of dried blood running from his mouth and a small cut near his eye, as well as slash marks along his side. " He needs help," I said to the two men beside me. "Is he on his way yet?" Jes
He followed, while the other man, whose name was Levi, watched from behind, and they led the two of us to a small field in the forest. My cell phone was still in my hand, but I didn't have a chance to contact anyone at this speed. As I hovered near the edge of the grass, I tried to tap my phone, hoping to find something, but Chris pulled me up and pinned me against one of the nearby trees, and I dropped my phone on the ground right then and there. "Let her go now." Again, Cole tried to make his point, but Silas just laughed as he stepped closer to him. "That was a nice offer, but I don't think you understand the position you're in." Suddenly, Silas threw a hard punch at Cole, hitting him in the face and knocking him to his knees. Silas then walked over again and punched him in the stomach, making him groan in pain. "Cole!" I yelled as I struggled in Chris's grip, but he held me down easily. "We've got both of you, so you can't negotiate with us." Then I saw Cole's eyes sparkle, b
Now the sun was going down. The day was going by much faster than I had expected. Well, Cole turns out to be much more competitive than I expected and wins most of the games we play. After the arcade we walk around a little bit and buy some food and finally go back to the car. The car is parked on the outskirts of town near the forest, which I don't mind at all. We can both enjoy the ride home in comfort. I open the passenger seat and put my stuffed doll down while he gets into the car on the opposite side. "Wow, that was a fun day," I grin as I settle into my seat. "Yeah, it was." He smiles as he closes the door and we are both silent now. I look at him and see that his eyes are fixed on me. "Hey, is something wrong?" I asked, waving my hand in his direction while giggling. "Huh?" He jumped in surprise. "You're staring at me." I replied with a chuckle. "Oh, sorry." He looked down. "You're so pretty when you smile." "Oh, shut up," I muttered as I looked down to hide the blush o
"Yeah, but that happened more when I was younger. Chase and I used to keep an eye on the mortal world and point out places we wanted to go together... He did that a few times in the few years we were up there." His gaze dropped. "He always told me about the places he went when he visited." "So did you fly together after you got your wings?" I asked and he nodded. "Only a few times. He can't stay here too long." He answered frankly. "Then why did you stop?" I asked, furrowing my brow. "Well, when my mother's condition started to deteriorate, we thought she should have someone with her, or at least close to her. So we had to put that aside," he said and I nodded. There was a short pause between us as I tried to think of something to say. "Maybe I can take you somewhere sometime." He said suddenly. "Really?" He saw my eyes light up with a smile and he nodded. "Really. Anywhere in the world." He smiled softly at me. Then I took a bite of my food with a grin, and he continued eating.
