News about the deaths at Old-Vine Town was quick to spread throughout the other towns and people have started to talk about how they were vampires hiding amongst humans all these while because of the fangs and the black blood which they recognized to be a night blood. It was in the stories they have read and heard which has been passed on and knowing that it was real only made them shiver in fear because they now believe there are the others who might also be living among them. And while gossips and fear spread in all the towns, Caitlin packed few of their belongings as she prepared to leave the town tonight with her daughter, believing it was not safe to stay anymore, while on the other hand, there was Martinez, who despite everything that was going on, the only thing on his mind was to make Caitlin regret what she did to him.Meanwhile, at the other side of the border, all the other Covens has been thrown into uproar when they learnt about the news of the Blackburn and about the boo
There was no response from the Elders regarding the question asked and this increased the pressure in the room. Elder Kane looked pissed as he looked at the expression on everyone’s faces. Elder Donovan had put him in a tight situation and now, he will have to deal with lots of things altogether.“Lord Dante is dead.”Soft gasps filled the room at the revelation as every one of them looked at Lady Phoenix and then at the Elders.“Is this true?” Gabriel, leader of Night raiders asked with slightly narrowed brows.Lady Phoenix stood from her seat and hit her palm on the hard surface of the table to bring silence into the room. When they all quietened, she looked around and addressed them, “I know we all barely tolerate each other, but this is the inner circle of the council and the more we keep fueling out our thoughts all at once, the more we won’t resolve these matters on ground,” she said and sniffed. “Now I am not asking you all to sympathize with me because my husband is dead. Lord
The three members of dark-shadows all have long black hairs that reached up to their backs which they left flowing. Their body is one built like a strong tower and they leave their chest bare while their trousers hung just below their waist. Dark shadows are known for fornication and they never really have anything good to do since the split of the covens. Their coven is like a brothel. But despite it, they are still one of the strongest covens and that is because of their special ability of not been seen when they don’t want to.“Lay down your sword, Logan,” Rune said again, aiming his sword at him.“Why should I do that?” Logan asked as he moved his eyes to now look at Rune. “We don’t take orders from you and if I want,” he moved his eyes around the room, “I could kill you and every other person seated here right now.”The vampires began to whisper silently to each other and thought if it would be best to leave as they cannot risk their lives all because of a fight between the dark-
A harsh knock came on the door and everyone in the room became tensed. Outside Caitlin’s house were angry townspeople, all yelling for her to come out and in their midst was a mother wailing loudly.Whatever it was that was going on, Kyra knew it was not a good thing and she held the hem of her mother’s dress.Caitlin looked at her with wrinkled brows and she quickly gave a warm smile. She touched her face and held her hands in hers, staring at her beautiful face and keeping the smile on.“Kyra, do you remember everything I taught you?” she asked and when she received a nod from her, she said, “All those lessons, I don’t want you to forget them. I know you were never curious about why you did all those things, but you will know when the time eventually comes.”There was another bang on the door and Caitlin moved her eyes towards it before her eyes fell on Padma who looks so concerned for her.Moving her eyes back to her daughter, she said to her, “I will be gone for a while, so while
It was the early morning of the next day and everything just seem unusually quiet and different. The townspeople seem to have finally gotten the peace they always wanted. Kyra moved her feet slowly, her worn-out shoes leaving a print on the sand she walked on and her eyes stayed fixed on what was in front of her. The wind blew hard in her direction, causing the hairs on her skin to rise, but above all, what was rising within her was the pain and loneliness of seeing her mother’s ashes on the ground and knowing that it was just her against the world now.When she got to the spot, she saw sticks and little fires that still burned from them and she could perceive the smoke in the air. But apart from all that, she could see the ashes, the one she believes must be her mother’s. Kyra knelt down among the ashes which the wind had scattered around and she tried to gather some of it in her hands while also taking up sand. Seeing that it was all useless, she placed her palms flat on the groun
Days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months. Everyone seems to have moved on with their lives, forgetting the deed they had done, wearing big smiles on their faces and letting their laughter fill the air. For a month after the burning of her mother on the stake, Kyra never came outside except for nights where everyone would have gone to sleep. During those times, she would go to their house and return in the morning before the residents of the town wakes up to start their day again. This went on for days until the day she decided to step outside. It seems as though everyone already forgotten about her because no one even turned their head or said any ill word to her as she now walked in the street. It made her wonder if she was now invincible to them or if their hate was only directed to her mother and not to her. As she walked the street, she looked at the face of every one that passed, even the young ones were not left out. Their eyes that watched as the flame engulfed he
Thirteen years later…A figure sat at the top of the mountain and stared into abyss. The cold whips relentlessly at his face and he took in a drag of the air before releasing. It’s been thirteen years already since he survived the one bite that could kill him.Sage stood up and looked over North. His whole life has been full of pains and struggles, and now, he wanted to change that. He wants to become something the people around him would have never thought or imagined he could become, most especially, the Elders.Once he turned eighteen, they assigned the role of a watchman to him, and even though he wanted to become something more than that, he knows it was the only thing they could offer him in their coven. But then his uncle, Elder Donovan, told him about the coming of the Chosen One, someone who would come to save the world and redeem them—someone powerful enough to overthrow the Elders. Sage knows that the world is not normal with his kind in it, and so, he readily accepted the
Sage has grown quite a lot which he also knows. He is now a center of attraction for ladies like Sapphire, but hers is quite different because she turned him and now she wants to claim him. His voice is now deep, masculine, more mature and calm. His looks are also an added feature. The jaws, thin lips, nose centered perfectly, brows, eyes and forehead. They are all too perfect, and Lady Phoenix would always say he got his looks from his father."You asked for me," he said and all of a sudden, he saw their countenance change as they looked at each other.Lady Phoenix moved her eyes back to him and said, "Well, I was hoping we would eat first before anything. Come."Lady Phoenix stepped out of the room and Sage looked at Donovan who placed a hand on his back before he also stepped out.The place Sage now walked brought back lots of memories. He was walking in the large corridor that led to the dining room, the place where the memory of his father would often linger. He stepped into the
