Flashback

"Do you know why you're here Jasmine?"

"Yes sir" I whispered, casting my head to the ground in fear.

"And why is that?"

"I disobeyed you" my voice shook as I tried so hard to keep the tears at bay, daddy hated tears.

"And you embarrassed me again"

"I'm sorry" I felt the first tear roll down my cheek, sealing my fate.

"Lock her up in the cell" my heart rate skyrocketed at the thought of being in cell again. I could feel the fear creeping in, dread filling me as my body began to shook. Not the cell please, there were rats in there, and the old man opposite my cell frightened me, he said he would take me very hard when he got the chance. I don't know what that means but it sounded bad, I don't want him to take me hard, or take me at all. I saw Sir Michael begin to approach me, ready to take me down there and I panicked.

"Daddy please!" I realised my mistake the moment the words left my lips. His eyes blazed in anger, his jaw locked and a loud feral growl vibrated through

  • Colorless   Chapter 38

    "I woke up in a hospital room. Again," I groaned. This time, there were no wires connected to me, no dramatic heart monitor. Just silence. I glanced outside; Maya wasn't here whispering again. There was nobody here. The room was silent. I sat up, trying to recall the event that led me here but came up blank. What happened? Did I pass out again ? The door squeaked open, and I glanced up to find Ciro walking in. His expression was unreadable. He approached me cautiously, eyes sharp. “Hey," he took a seat on one of those uncomfortable hospital chairs. "How're you?" I opened my mouth to respond but paused. The memories of the day before came flooding in. Amy, the cold room. She was real. “Ciro," I swallowed. Was I going to explain to him that I had been pretending? That I had spent the last week pretending to be better, pretending that Amy didn't exist? "I..." I wanted to apologise, to tell him how sorry I was, but I couldn't bring myself to. What's there to apologise for?

    “Amy," I whispered, the pain in my head limiting me. "Hey. You've been hiding in here ? Why ? Who's hurting you ?" I had so many questions. "Jasmine. What took you so long?" She whispered. She got closer, I could feel her settle beside me, could hear her silent shuffling. The room got colder. "It's freezing in here," I glanced around, still unable to see anything in the dark room. I hugged my arms close as my teeth chattered. The room still had that eerie feeling that made the hairs on my skin stand. "You'll get used to it. I did," she murmured. "You left me, you forgot me," her voice broke. "I waited, Jasmine." "Hey, hey," my voice trembled in desperation. "I didn't. I've been trying to find you. They told me you didn't exist." My head felt heavier. “Why?" "Because they've forgotten. They've forgotten. They don't care, no one does." "I do," I whispered. “Yes, you do. People like us, people who are different, we have no choice but to stick by each other." I swallowed hard,

    I held his gaze till he glanced away, casting his eyes down. I took a step back, looking back at Amaya in defeat. Beside Ciro stood a small man, his beard grey, an evidence of his long years on Earth. "Jasmine. How're you feeling?" Ciro took a step forward, cupping my face in his palm. "Are you okay?" His eyes searched mine. "I..." I brought my hands up to hold his, staring up at his beautiful eyes. "Ciro..." my lips wobbled, a new wave of tears threatening to break free. “You saw her too, didn't you ? I'm not crazy. You know." I was begging. He had to have seen her. There's no way I could've imagined her, no way I could've. I spoke to her. I heard her voice. I'm not crazy. I saw his eyes fill up, then he let go of my face, pulling me closer. It was all the answer I needed. He didn't see her. No one did. I held onto him, completely breaking down in his arms. Why ? Why are things always different with me? "It's okay. Everything is going to be okay," he reassured. "I'm here.

    The beeping was the first thing I heard before I opened my eyes. Steady, annoying, loud. The heart monitor. I opened my eyes, the light bright was blinding. It made my head hurt. I groaned. My body ached, like I had been hit by a train. My lips were chapped, my throat dry. I was in the hospital. Again. I had passed out. Again. Then it hit me. Everything that happened, Amy. I tried to sit up but the pain was crippling. I settled down back in my bed, glancing around for help. Then I noticed her. Amaya. She was standing right outside my door, speaking to a figure I couldn't see. The person was out of my line of sight. I tried to make out what they were saying but gave up. They were too far away. Amaya's gaze caught mine through the glass door. Her eyes were lifeless, cold. She nodded at the person, without taking her eyes off me for a second. It made me uncomfortable. "Hey Jas," she greeted the moment she entered the room. "How're you feeling?" Her voice was low, sad. She s

    It sounded familiar, I couldn't place my finger on it but it was there, at the back of my mind. Ciro looked at me, expectant. I ignored him, feeling a sense of urgency to know where the scream came from, who it was from. I pushed past him, following the sound. My head hurt. "Where are you going?" He was hot on my heels, his hands swaying as he spoke, his frustration clear as day. "Following the sound. I need to find her." I answered, distracted, focused on finding it. “What sound?” His tone was exasperated. I ignored him. I didn’t have time for this. I heard it again, louder this time. It was a female. She sounded like she was in pain. My gaze swept the room, noticing no one was doing anything. They were going about their day like someone wasn’t obviously in trouble. It pissed me off. “Jasmine, slow down.” He grabbed my hand. I tried to pull away, but I couldn’t. My body was weak, I was weak. I shivered, a sudden cold hitting me. I pulled at my arm, frustrated. I needed to ge

    I chipped at my food mindlessly, my thoughts preoccupied with Ciro. I woke up this morning feeling a tad bit better, so I decided to have lunch downstairs with the other pack members. Most people I came into contact with bowed their heads respectfully and kept their distance. It felt lonely. I found myself wanting, needing someone to speak to me, to distract me from the thoughts of my mate. The only friend I had was Amaya, and she was somewhere, probably having fun with other worriers while I wallowed in self-pity. I wanted her to have fun, but I also needed my friend. Ciro hadn't shown his face since our conversation yesterday. I sighed. I thought we were making progress, thought we had a bond, but I guess the truth of my health was too much for him to handle. I wondered how he'd react when he finds out about why we're on the run and who my parents really are. I sighed once again and gave up on having breakfast. I knew I wouldn't be able to eat anything with the emotional turmoil
