Maris began to shiver internally when he had told her Dracula was after her for the devil's nudes and a certain entity that had gotten into her the night she took the picture.
"What am I going to do?" Her lips trembled and she held onto his arm.
"I'm going to protect you. It's a bit surprising you're still alive." He stated and she threw stare daggers at him. "My name is Logan by the way."
He stretched out his hand for a handshake, but Maris only gave him a long skeptical look.
"Logan?" She squinted her eyes when she heard whispers in her head. "Can you hear that?"
She looked around and Logan followed her gaze. "Hear what?"
"Those weird whispers." She poked her fingers into her ears and wiggled them.
"You're strange." He narrowed an eye at her and she stopped what she was doing to glare at him.
"Says the person that has been stalking me." Maris hissed and walked to the other side of the cave.
She held out her palms to th
"…He tried to speak, but his voice broke intoan echoing howl. His ravening soul infected his jaws;his murderous longings were turned on the cattle; he still was possessedby bloodlust. His garments were changed to a shaggy coat and his armsinto legs. He was now transformed into a wolf." A dog boy who looked extremely familiar read to Maris from Ovid's book of metamorphosis. The first story about lycanthropy.He raised his hands up in the air and drew a sigil as fast as he could before summoning someone who was fit to be a god. Again, they were naked. Maris laid plainly on the drawing and floated in the air with puffs of smoke rushing into her nostrils.Instantly, Maris gasped, snapping her eyes open with a pounding heart that threatened to burst out of her chest."Where am I?" She asked, feeling as if something had used straw to suck out the energy in her."My arms." He vo
"What's a lemen?" Maris asked the nice female who radiated so much joy from just the way she looked at Maris.Maris interlocked her fingers behind her and tried to divert the topic of her staring at a guy's butt. She couldn't believe they were inside her head."Like a consort, yin yang or soulmate." She stepped forward to place a hand on Maris' chest.Maris' gaze followed her hand and her heart paced. How was she sure these people wouldn't turn into wolves to bite her head off?"You may be dismissed." She ordered the people who had encircled them and Immediately, they returned to what they were doing before Maris came.Weird."I'm not weird, I'm saying the fact," The girl said, respecting what was called personal space. "My name is Sanna by the way. Nice to meet you-""Maris." Maris answered with a wandering gaze, solemnly wondering where Logan was."Missing him already?" Sanna wiggled her eye brows and Maris put on a frustrated
Dracula"No!" The woman screamed in horror, trying to protect her son from the vicious men. "Don't take him, take me."Dracula snapped his head to her direction and threw the chunk of meat he was feasting on with a sly smile, playing at the corners of his lips."You want to strike a deal?" He asked, cocking up his brows with a gaze that never faltered."Yes, I'll give anything for you to keep my son." She pleaded, a familiar shake in her voice as she darted her eyes from Dracula to the dogman who held her son hostage."Are you sure you can give me what I want?" He drawled, using his tongue to flick out the piece of human flesh stuck in between his teeth."I'll do anything, just spare my son." She pleaded.Dracula slowly took a step forward with a glint of malevolence in his obsidian eyes, causing the woman who appeared to be in her late thirties to flinch. He eyed her from head to toe and slowly went up f
"I don't understand what you're talking about, mother." Logan took a step back from his mother who was being up close and personal."Why is the smell of human all over you?" She asked, puckering her forehead as she scrutinized him from head to toe."Can you stop this?" Logan raised his hands in the air in mock surrender, slightly getting offended at his mother's over protectiveness."Don't tell me you've been with a-" she stopped in her tracks and widened her eyes when her wolf whispered something to her. "Don't tell me you brought a freaking human here?""I might have done a-""Oh, no!" She exclaimed and her kakapo flinched, flapping it's wings in the air.It was a flightless bird that had the looks of a parrot, but it was an owl. She rushed to her window and pulled her thick, black curtains out of the way so she could take a gander at her surroundings and that was when she spotted her.
He stared at the locket again, brushing the surface slowly with his thumb as a warm smile spread across his face.His heart twitched when he remembered the barrier that was between them. He averted his gaze to the window and watched as the sun shined brightly on mother nature.He looked down at the locket again, but this time, he wasn't smiling-he was in pain and his eyes reflected it."I'll save you, I promise." He whispered to the locket and stared longly at it.The locket had a picture of a girl whose eyes were full of life and it seemed like the picture was alive and staring into his soul. They mirrored the blue dress she had on and a small smile played at the corners of her lips. Short, black curls hung down the sides of her face.He raised the locket to his lips and kissed it, striking a memory in his head."Azazel, we have come to worship you." They bowed as Dracula sprinkled the sacred water on the statu
Weary ye shall be,Seeking redemptionLike a bat,Blind in the day,Never to walk the earth in the mornOr ye shall burnA living dead,Bloodsucking monster,Causing the heart of your beloved to bleedIn the turmoils of HadesNever to return!~~ Poem written by Afeare Adesuwa~~~~~~"I'm sorry, master." Dracula shivered, rushing down to bow. "It's not what you think?""What's going on?" Lucy asked, shaking under the blanket as she darted her eyes from Dracula to the man in a villain coat."Silence!" The devil flipped the bedside table and it crashed, earning a deafening scream from Lucy. "What is it then, Dracula?""Nature happened." Dracula mumbled, his head still kissing the floor as he bowed."You broke the only rule I gave. I never expected you to be the one to break it." Poison dripped from his v
Maris~6:23pm"You!" Maris yelled the moment she got to the surface of the water and shot tranquilizers at Logan. "I wish you'd choke on your tongue."Logan threw his head back and barked out an annoying laughter from the back of his throat. He leaned back on the water and floated on it.Suddenly, Maris jumped on him, splashing water everywhere and he sank with her before going back up."Hey, you wanna kill me?" He wrapped his arms around her waist and a frown kissed his forehead."Let me go." She banged her fist on his chest with a sour expression. "Why did you throw me into the water like a bag of chips?""Cause you need a bath," he whispered between laughs, definitely enjoying getting on her nerves."Bitch." She tried to push him away, but he tightened his grip around her waist."Isn't that what you are?" He cocked up his brows, eyes staring deep into that of Maris.Maris' brows puckered a
Maris' eyes twitched, followed by her fingers then whispers erupted around her."She's moving." A faint voice muttered. It wasn't a familiar one.Slowly, Maris unlatched her eyes with an unclear vision. She turned her head and glanced around, her vision becoming better the harder she tried to look. Finally, she could get a clear image of the people around her.Suddenly, her breathing intensified as she saw three hyenas staring owlishly at her, their faces too close to her body."Where am I?" She raised her head up immediately and they moved back. "Ouch!" She winced when she felt a slight headache spreading through her head. "What did you guys do to me?"She attempted nursing her head, but couldn't–there was something holding her wrist and she drifted her gaze down to see belt like straps clutching her wrist like a bracelet to the wooden bed they had laid her on."What's this?" She asked, struggling to get out of
