When Claudia made it back to Lex’s house, her eyes where red and swollen from her angry crying. She had hoped that maybe Lex was asleep, but, as her luck would have it, he was waiting up to ask her how her night was, like ant doting father would do. Besides, the rumors that had been spreading had already reached his ears and he had hoped that they hadn’t reached hers since he knew how she reacted anytime Volk had been brough up ever since her mother sent her that letter telling her about his death. When he saw her tear-stricken face as she ran to her room, his heart hurt for her and he immediately went into father-mode and chased her to her room asking her, “What happened, Claudia, why are you crying?”

“I don’t want to talk about it,” Claudia said.

“If, you don’t tell me, then I will hunt down Sean and get the information from him in a more aggressive way. As a matter of fact, with how you came home, I think I would prefer this method because then I can torture him for making you cr

  • Dance of Roses   Dreaming of the dead

    After showering, her mind had calmed down enough to fall asleep, but her dreams weren’t any better. The moment she closed her eyes, she was greeted by a hauntingly familiar presence. “What are you doing Claudia?” the figure asked, and Claudia shook her head firmly. “This is obviously my dream so I should be asking you that, especially since you’re dead and all,” she said giving a slight, defeated chuckle. This time the figure chuckled and shook his head, “Haven’t you learned this yet, Claudia? Not everything is what it seems to be,” he said, “Besides, I am not the one punishing myself because of how I was born, now am I?” “No, you are just the one that went and got himself blown up do to what he was born at, aren’t you Volk? You really have no room to lecture me, you couldn’t even keep your promise to the person you claimed to love. Please just tell me why you are evading my dreams when you are dead? Do you want me to hate myself more?” “You hating yourself is not, never has, and

  • Dance of Roses   Legba's Blessing

    “I must be dreaming,” Claudia thought as she looked around herself. She was standing in the square, but it was vastly different. It looked like it did back in the 1800s. She sighed inwardly because she was familiar with this dream and did not wish to see the ending again. That is when she noticed, unlike her other dreams like this, she had control of her body and decided that she will take advantage of this. She turned around and started walking aimlessly down Decatur Street until she heard a familiar voice screaming. “Help, help!” the voice kept screaming, and though she felt like she knew the voice, she could not place where it was coming from. She looked up and around her, that’s when she noticed that she was at the crossroads and in front of her, tied to a tree was Sean and beside the tree was Legba. Legba snapped his fingers and suddenly the tree was on fire and Sean screamed louder for help. The very next second Legba appeared n

  • Dance of Roses   Apology and threats

    When Claudia got to her room, her phone rang for about the fifth time since she got home. “He isn’t going to give up until I answer, is he?” she thought with a sigh. She pulled her phone out of her purse and answered the call. “You finally answer? What was your plan, to ignore me forever?” Sean said, his voice laced with anger and hurt. “What do you want Sean? It is late and frankly I have no energy for fighting,” Claudia said her voice laced with fatigue and pain. The almost broken sound of Claudia’s voice nullified his anger, and he became concerned. “What’s wrong?” he asked her, his voice much softer than before. “What’s wrong? Heh, you’re asking me what’s wrong? Oh, I don’t know,” Claudia started, her voice rising an octave with every word until she was practically screaming, “Maybe it has to do with me catching my now ex cheating on me on his birthday, or maybe it’s becoming obvious to me that I am such a monster that even in this lifetime you scumbags think you can treat me a

  • Dance of Roses   Betrayal Part 2

    At six PM sharp, Claudia showed up at Zander’s house wearing a long crimson evening gown that had a slit up the left slide that stopped right before the thigh met the hip, with her hair up in a messy bun. She didn’t even have time to knock when Zander opened the door with a smile that quickly turned into a frown as he looked back into the house.“What’s wrong?” Claudia asked him after seeing his mood change so drasticallyZander sighed then looked back at her, “It’s nothing, really, just Sean has been locked in his room all afternoon. I think he is mad at me for telling him that you couldn’t come. I just wanted to surprise him. Just this once.”“Oh, if that’s the problem, then I will just head up to his room and fix the problem now,” Claudia said, decisively, before heading up to Zander’s room.When she reached the door, she noticed the lights was off and her brow crinkled in confusion. “It’s only six. He shouldn’t be asleep yet,” she thought and knocked softly on the door. When she d

  • Dance of Roses   Betrayal Part 1

    A month later, Sean and Claudia were goofing around on the square while she took a dinner break when Claudia looked at the date on her phone then frowned. Seeing this, Sean thought he might have said something wrong, or she had a disturbing text again. She had been receiving texts from an unknown number lately that seemed to upset her, but he didn’t understand it because they always seem to just be pictures of a little boy.“What’s wrong, Claudia? Is it that number again?” he asked while looking at her worriedly.“No, I had just realized it’s your birthday tomorrow and I had already planned to meet with a client tomorrow evening and I have class at Bloody Marie’s tomorrow during the day so I won’t get a chance to see you.”Sean’s face fell for a moment but then he smiled at her, “No worries, we will just plan a birthday date for the day after.”“Why not tonight?” She asked and Sean got nervous and tried to hide it but Claudia noticed, “If you have plans I understand,” she continued co

  • Dance of Roses   Dragon's Den

    After spending the whole day with Zander, going from place to place, getting her hair done, nails done, and finding the perfect outfit, Claudia was finally ready for her date with Sean. She was wearing a cold shoulder black dress that hugged her curves and stopped about an inch from her knees. Her hair was straightened and left to flow down her back like a copper waterfall and her nails were painted crimson and sharpened as well as pointed to look like claws. As Claudia walked into the Dragon's Den, All the men stopped and stared but her eyes were only focused on Sean who couldn't take his eyes off her even when the waitress was obviously trying to get his attention. “Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever,” Sean said distractedly while waving his hand at the waitress. “So, what's the plan?” Claudia asked, while placing her hand, gently, on her hip. “No exact plans tonight,” Sean started, “Let’s start with eating and finish with having fun and letting loose. How does tha
