Devastation hit me like a tidal wave. The words blurred as tears filled my eyes. How could he leave? How could he abandon me like this? The ache in my chest was unbearable, a mix of loss and betrayal.

The rain outside seemed to mirror my pain. The darkness of the cave closed in around me, and for the first time, I felt completely alone.

Why did Evan leave me hanging like this? I wondered as I curled up in my own embrace, crying until I eventually fell asleep.

When the rain finally stopped in the morning, we left the cave. The smell of the damp soil added to the beauty of the freshly washed green leaves against the cloudy sky.

The wind gently spread the morning dew from one leaf to another as it swayed through the air.

These were the things that used to bring me joy and uplift my spirits. But not anymore.

My heart ached knowing that you were gone. Even when I woke up and saw the crumpled paper clenched in my hand, I wished it were all just a dream.

But it wasn't. It was as real as you

    She noticed the swelling in my eyes and gently placed her hand on my forehead, realizing that I had a fever.With the announcement of summer vacation, she was relieved that I wouldn't have to go to school.Instead, my mother took me to the hospital for a check-up.As the doctor examined me, her gaze fell upon a mark on my thigh, and she inquired if it was a cat scratch.I confirmed her suspicion, before saying anything, when my eyes fell on the marks, I realized that the scratches had already healed and were barely visible.As she waited for my response, I looked at her and explained, "My friend's cat wasn't so fond of me when this happened." I forced a smile, trying to lighten the mood.She chuckled and showed me scratches on her own wrist, mentioning, "Isn't this how cats always are? She giggled, "You should see mine!" "Okay, Julia! You have to rest for a day or two, take care of your diet, and get plenty of sleep!" She placed her hand on my shoulder.This gesture reminded me of Mr.

    "Either you are changing your shirt, or I will help you with that as well!" He playfully caressed his jaw with his finger, watching me from head to toe.I covered my mouth, staring at him in disbelief. "You!" I pushed him out of the door and closed it behind me, laughing before quickly changing my shirt.As I stepped outside, he greeted me with a smile. "You look perfect!"As we walked toward the living room, my mom gasped in surprise, covering her mouth. "Oh, Julie!" She rushed towards me and embraced me tightly. "I can't express how happy I am to see you like this!" Her eyes were filled with tears.I kissed her on the cheek and we left the house. When we arrived at the new restaurant, he insisted that I try their Italian.Unable to resist his kindness and insistence, I agreed to give it a try. And I must say, I didn't regret it at all! I actually quite enjoyed it!"So, how old is your sister?" I asked, taking another bite of the hot and spicy pasta."She's 9! Her name is Rebekah!" H

    "How does she recover?" I asked, even more curious now."She uses some kind of spell. She never tells me the details of how she replenishes her blood, but all I know is that she gets better afterward!" he answered."Wow, this is unbelievable! How did this fairytale become my reality?" My eyes widened."Can I say something?" He hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Please talk to Victoria. She's worried about you. I know what she did was wrong, but she genuinely cares about you." Then, he glanced at the time on his phone screen."It's getting dark! Let's get you home!" he said, leading me back home.My mom was waiting for us; it was almost evening. "Thank you so much!" She kissed Dominic on the cheek, and then my mom and I spent some quality time together.I told her about my day, carefully avoiding any mention of Dominic and Victoria's secrets."Oh, I nearly forgot! Muse & Mugs contacted you, they mentioned that they will reach out again in the morning," she informed."Really?" I f

    After a moment of hesitation, I answered, "Hello?"A cheerful and professional voice greeted me. "Hello, may I speak with Julia, please?"My brows furrowed slightly. "Yes, this is Julia. Who's calling?""Hi Julia, this is Claire from Muse & Mugs. How are you today?" she asked cheerfully.Curiosity and a hint of confusion flickered in my eyes. "Oh, hi Claire. I'm... doing alright. How can I help you?"Claire's voice brightened. "I'm calling with some exciting news! You've been selected as our featured artist of the month! Congratulations!"My eyes widened even more in surprise, my hand trembling slightly. I sat up straighter, my heart pounding. “I… I have? Really?”Dominic raises an eyebrow, intrigued, while Victoria leans in closer, sensing the shift in my mood.“Yes, really! Your confidence and personality stood out to us, and we also listened to your records. You were awesome!" Her words made me even more confused."Oh, you did?" I responded."We can’t wait to showcase your work. We

    One day, she caught him watching her in the lake. Startled, she panicked and hid in the water. 'I apologize, I didn’t mean to...' he stammered, turning around in embarrassment and fleeing the scene.Later that evening, she stumbled upon him again, this time sketching with a charcoal stick by the lakeside.Drawn to him, she approached. His white-blond hair shimmered in the fading light, and as she got closer to him, his hand began to tremble.Seeing his nervousness, she gently placed her hand over his, offering reassurance. 'I love it!' she whispered, admiring the sketch—it was of her. 'I have more!' he admitted, his voice trembling with excitement.Encouraged by her interest, he led her to his collection. As she marveled at the array of drawings, she spun around, her laughter like a melody, then her eyes fell on a portrait, where she was in the lake.'So this wasn't the first time you watched me in the lake?' She blushed with her curled eyelashes bouncing just for a moment.'Do you dr

    "You must lure in a desperate woman," she began. "Offer her something she desires, and in return, ask her to take your wife's remains.Have her mix them with tears of sorrow and grind them using a goat's bone. She must then promise to offer her baby to you. Once this is done, add a bloom of birth to the mixture and wait for it to burn. Then, drink it. She will conceive a baby that is a reincarnation of Josephine.""When the child grows up, it will be your task to make her fall in love with you. Once she does, she will remember all the good memories you had with your wife," the woman instructed him, her voice filled with darkness, echoing strangely, you could hear the sound of a flipping paper as she spoke.As per the plan, he strategically planted numerous witches under his control, granting them only one percent of his power.These witches became his loyal servants.

  • Demon's Obsession - I'm Bound to Him   The First Mic Night

    The stage was a small corner of the cafe, adorned with fairy lights and a single microphone stand. It felt small, almost like the universe was giving me a gentle word of encouragement to step out of my comfort zone.I found a spot near the back to tune my guitar one last time. My fingers trembled slightly as I adjusted the strings, but the familiar feel of the instrument stabilized me. The host called my name, and I felt a strange shiver crawling up and down my spine as I made my way to the stage.I could see familiar faces in the crowd—a few class fellows, but especially Victoria and Dominic, who had come to support me, their smiles giving me a boost of courage.Taking a deep breath, I stepped up to the microphone and introduced myself. "Hi, I'm Julia, and this is my first time performing here. Thanks for having me." My voice shook just a bit, but I pressed on, positioning the guitar and strumming the first chords. The melody flowed through me, and as I played the opening lines of my

    Then, I felt a strong pat on my cheek, and with that, I startled awake."You're having a nightmare again!" Mom said, rubbing my cheek."Oh, no! Not again, it felt so real, I could taste the blood in my mouth!" I sat up, wiping my sweat."Because it did happen!" She held my shoulder and gently rubbed it."What? But you said it was a nightmare!" I squinted in confusion."No! I didn't say it was a nightmare, I said you're having a nightmare again!" She left me even more puzzled."How much of it was real?" I asked."Everything, except for your clothes being soaked in blood!" She got up from the bed and pulled open the curtains."We were near granny's bathroom, there was blood on the floor, I felt suffocated, my vision blurred, and then what happened?" I asked, still confused, hanging my feet down from the bed."That was confusing for me, too. At first, you were panicking, then suddenly you seemed intoxicated, walking up the stairs like a zombie, and finally crawling into bed to sleep. I t

    He sucked in a breath, his eyes darkening with desire. I leaned in closer, feeling the heat radiate from his body, and whispered, “Did it work?”His hand desperately wrapped around my waist as he pulled me closer. “Only one way to find out.” His breath was heavy and deep, a mix of longing and anticipation.A shiver ran down my spine as I held on to him tightly, feeling the storm of emotions in his body language.Our eyes locked, and our hearts began to beat in perfect rhythm. "If you are the reward of all the suffering I've endured, I can suffer all my life, just to end up with you," he said, cupping my face in his hands. His touch was electric, sending waves of heat through my body.Our eyes still locked and sparkling with unshed tears, I never knew how much he loved me until now. He leaned closer, our breaths clashing against one another, my heart thudded loudly as all the other sounds faded away.And that's when our lips met once more, not for the first time, but this time charged

    Luna's eyes widened at first, then softened as she looked at him. Evan’s eyes remained low, fixed on the ground. “I have no one else left,” he began, his voice heavy with sorrow. “You know how my parents were killed, and then I lost my Granny too. Having you around finally gave me some relief. Even though I don’t know you that well, having a family around—a sister figure—felt so much better.But seeing you suffer, I somehow blame myself for all of it. If he wasn’t trying to track me down, he wouldn’t have cut out your tongue.” He closed his eyes, and a tear slipped down his cheek.“Hey, Evan,” Luna said gently, placing a comforting hand on his shoulder. “You don’t know Hunter like I do. He is after every supernatural being, so even if you weren't here, he would have found another reason to hurt us!I once fled because of him. And because of him, I had to abandon you. It was my responsibility to look after you and train you, but I’m sorry.I still feel remorse over leaving you behind.”

    Faces around the room froze, mouths open and eyes wide with terror as the sound of his cracking and shifting bones echoed across the classroom. The students began to scream.Evan growled, turning around in a panic. His eyes, filled with fear, revealed his half-man, half-wolf form.“Back off, you beast!” the ginger-haired guy shouted, stepping forward with a circular amulet that seemed to terrify Evan.“You don’t have to worry about it. He won’t hurt you. I’m a supernatural hunter, and I came here to seize this creature!” he yelled, trying to reassure everyone.My eyes raced across the room, and I took a deep breath, deciding in an instant what to do. “Victoria!” I called out to her, knowing she’d do anything to help me. She whispered something, and suddenly, the chandelier above the ginger-haired guy shattered, crashing down. He jumped aside to protect himself.Seizing the moment, I rushed toward Evan, grabbed his hand, and we sprinted out of the school.The screeching of tires caught

    Afterward, Evan settled into the guest room, which was right beside the kitchen. I went upstairs to take a shower, the warm water washing away the dirt and tension of the day.As the water cascaded over me, I replayed the events on the terrace. Dominic’s transformation, his aggression, and his regret. My body trembled, not just from the memory of his grip, but from the intense emotions that had pushed him to the edge. It was terrifying.After my shower, I slipped into something comfortable and quietly made my way down to the kitchen. My wet hair cascaded down one shoulder, droplets dripping against my skin.As I entered, I saw Evan standing by the counter, his hair still damp, and a towel draped casually around his neck. He looked up and smiled, a smile that lately seemed to carry a deeper meaning, his eyes smoldering with a seductive intensity.“Do you need anything?” I asked, a playful smile tugging at my lips.“I just need a glass of water,” he replied, shrugging casually.“Really?

    We were still entangled in a passionate kiss when my phone rang, jolting us both. We pulled back, chuckling at the sudden interruption and the awkwardness of the moment."It’s Mom," I said, taking three deep breaths before answering. “When are you going to get back?” she demanded, skipping any greetings. No hi, no hello, just straight up interrogation.“I’m on my way!” I replied, rolling my eyes slightly. “Is Mr. Redwood there yet?” I asked, winking at him. He smiled, a glimmer of amusement in his eyes.“No, he isn’t. You should call him and ask if he’s coming or if he’s changed his mind,” she responded before hanging up.I turned to him, placing both hands under my chin. “Where are you, Mr. Redwood?”He sighed, pursing his lips. “You know, being called Mr. Redwood by you right after kissing you feels awkward.”I laughed softly. “Okay, okay! Evan, tell me, where are you? I just promised my mom I’d ask you where you are!”He smiled, a mischievous spark in his eyes. “I’m in the trance o

    Her chest heaved with loud, deep breaths, and small grunts escaped her lips. First, her left knee twisted, then her right knee twisted in the opposite direction.One by one, all her joints began to twist awkwardly, the transformation more painful than Mr. Redwood’s. Her entire body's bones made a series of sickening clicks.She twisted and arched, fur sprouting from her skin, and fangs emerging from her gums.Unlike Mr. Redwood, Luna did not become a full wolf. She transformed into a half-wolf, half-human hybrid, completely covered in fur and muscle.Her eyes, filled with anger, locked onto us as she tried to stand, but the silver leash around her neck began to burn her skin. She screamed in agony, and we watched in horror as her tongue, once severed, slowly began to grow back.She let out a bone-chilling howl, so powerful that every piece of glassware in Viviana's house shattered into millions of shards.The sound was deafening, a primal cry of pain and anger that echoed through the

    Mr. Redwood’s bones began to pop and crack, a horrifying symphony of transformation. Veins snaked around his neck, his jaw wriggling as if trying to break free from his skin.His eyes squeezed shut, and he faced the ceiling, every muscle in his body tensing and twisting.The pain was written all over his contorted features, his skin bruising as his joints shifted and twisted brutally.Against Viviana’s magic, Mr. Redwood pushed through his limits, grabbing his collar and ripping his shirt apart. His knees cracked and shifted, muscles rearranging with agonizing slowness.His moans echoed through the empty room, a haunting sound that sent shivers down my spine. We all stood frozen, watching in horror.Viviana's voice broke through the noises of cracking bones. “Hurry up! I can’t hold him much longer; he’s too strong!”Sheriff Scott and Dominic came into action, rushing toward Mr. Redwood.They each grabbed one of his arms, but he fought against them, grunting and growling.

    Viviana smiled at us, her eyes soft with understanding. "You can rest here as long as you need. By nightfall, we'll perform the task to help Luna."I held Evan's hands once more, my heart pouring into my smile. "You should get some rest. I'll head back, inform my mom that I'm safe, and then I'll go to the café before returning here."He smiled back, his grip on my hands firm and reassuring. I turned to Viviana, my expression serious. "I'm leaving him here because I trust you. I don't want anything to happen to him."Viviana placed a reassuring hand on my shoulder. "He is important to us, too. I will protect him with my life."She then turned to Sheriff and Dominic, her tone shifting to one of command. "I want you all here before moonrise. Bring a strong leash and chain—go for silver if possible. Victoria will stay here with me." She looked at Victoria, who nodded in agreement.Afterward, we scattered once again.

    I felt a pang of guilt as I finished my statement. Lying didn't sit well with me, but I had come to understand that sometimes lies were necessary to save lives.As I left the room, the Sheriff placed a reassuring hand on my shoulder and said, "I promise, we will avenge them."Now, let me tell you what actually happened. After taking the blood jars and candles, the Sheriff started the fire in the basement.The flames consumed the bodies completely, ensuring they couldn't be identified as supernatural.He took the candles to Viviana, and once I had given my statement, my Mom was informed that I was at the police station.Sheriff Scott's plan worked perfectly, thwarting Hunter's sinister intentions. This also bought Viviana and Victoria enough time to figure out how to help Luna. When my Mom came to pick me up, I used her phone to call Victoria and update her on the situation."We have found a solution for Luna!" Victoria's voice filled with both joy and tension.
