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. Sheriff and Dominic went to the black market to gather a silver leash and

    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.

  • Demon's Obsession - I'm Bound to Him   That Fateful Night

    In the morning, as I woke up and my vision cleared, I noticed a lizard on the ceiling directly above me. I may be a brave girl, but I have a fear of amphibians, particularly lizards, a condition known as Herpetophobia. I didn't mention this earlier because it's not something to be so proud of and brag about.Reacting quickly, I rolled to my right and hurriedly ran out of the room, screaming for my mom. "Lizard, Mom! A Lizard in my room!"She rushed toward me, concerned about what was happening. I explained to her that there was a lizard in my room, gesturing with my right hand to indicate its size, "It is this big!" I said, pointing my fingers to the ceiling and putting the other hand under my palm.Then a thought terrified me as I exclaimed, "What if the lizard was crawling all over me during the night?" I panicked.My mom, trying to calm me down, raised her voice and called out my name. "Julia!" she yelled."Stop and listen to me... I will take care of it!" She comforted me by pattin

    I swallowed a lump in my throat. "Give in to me, you are mine!" He whispered.Every pore of me wanted me to scream 'Yes', to tell him that I would give myself to him willingly.His lips were only an inch away from mine. I closed my eyes, and he held my thigh as I opened my mouth to kiss him. I got close to him, and his claws sank into my leg, making me bleed, yet I didn't feel pain but rather pleasure.While in reality, I was crying with fear on my bed.I was shaking helplessly. My cries reached my mother's ears, and she rushed to my side, unlocking the door with a key. We were so close, but before our lips touched, I pulled back. Slowly lifting my eyes, I whispered. "I am not yours!"As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw my mother shaking me violently."Mom!" I hugged her and cried."It's alright, you are alright!" She rubbed my back.She rubbed my lap to comfort me, but instead, I let out a moan of discomfort."What happened?" She asked, her voice filled with concern.She glanced down

    "That was just a dream!" I tried to excuse myself."Oh, but it was more than that, and you know it too!" she said."Mom!" I turned to my mom, wanting to leave."You are a ticking time bomb, on the verge of exploding! You need to accept that what you saw was not just a dream, but a reality more real than you can imagine!" she declared.I stood up and declared, "Enough! I may be a gentle person, truly I am, but you are constantly calling me a misfortune, ticking time bomb, or whatnot.Whether you believe it or not, I have self-respect!" With that, I walked out of her house.My mom looked at her with a sense of helplessness in her eyes. "This is why I cannot assist her because taming a 16-year-old is far more challenging than taming a wolf!" she stated."I want no part in it unless it is her choice." She turned her chair away. As my mother got up to leave the house, Green quietly said, "Don't push her; whatever has to happen has to happen by her own will."Next, we were planning to sta

    It may sound absurd, but my history teacher, who is arguably the most attractive man in the school, only glanced at me once. "You're new..." he glanced at the register and continued, "Ms. Julia Murphy! Welcome to Shadowbrook!" He smiled, and from then on, he never looked at me again.I really liked that, not that I don't like being admired, but he is young and handsome yet he took his job so seriously, that was really impressive.Later in the cafeteria, Dominic came up to me at my table and handed me a rose. "I know this is cheesy, but I like to welcome new students!"There was something about him that would attract any girl, his amazing eyes, his messy black hair, his physique, his height! I took the rose and said, "Thank you!"Even though I didn't feel any romantic attraction toward him.Then we spotted Victoria, as she walked in, everyone's eyes were on her."Meet Victoria, the most popular girl in our school!" Jeniece winked.Victoria smirked and glanced at Dominic, I looked at Do

    He approached me slowly, his movements uncertain. Suddenly, he jumped toward me, but before he could reach me, another wolf jumped on him from my left side, knocking him off balance.Reacting quickly, I stood up with my gaze fixed on this other wolf who saved me, his face was bright, and I retreated back into the safety of the house, closing the door behind me.Peeking through the side glass of the door, I witnessed the intense fight between the two wolves.They inflicted severe wounds to each other, their anger evident. Then, the wolf that had come to my aid lifted its head toward the sky and let out a haunting howl.This seemed to frighten the other wolf, causing it to flee. This second wolf disappeared into the bushes, and what I witnessed next was beyond my wildest imagination.I heard grunting noises, and as I looked on, the wolf stood upright on its hind legs.Its fur began to shed, and it turned and twisted in agonizing pain, transforming into a human figure.The darkness of th

    Mr. Redwood eventually realized he had lost his control over his anger and had strayed out so he returned to his desk, turning his face away.His jaws were hurting, and he was breathing heavily, his pupils shrinking. He was on the verge of losing control.However, the student who had made fun of me stood up and sincerely apologized to Mr. Redwood, “I am sorry, it won’t happen again!”.This seemed to calm our teacher, and he turned around with a smile. "It's good that you take responsibility for your mistake," he said, allowing the student to return to his seat.This guy happened to be one of Dominic's friends. Speaking of Dominic, he didn't show up to school that day. I had no idea why he was absent, but I heard he was sick.After school, my friends and I gathered outside the building. Victoria had a plan to cheer me up."My mom is out of town for the next two days, so I'm throwing a party at my place tonight!" she exclaimed.I looked at her and then glanced down, smiling.

    As I coughed uncontrollably, the other guy attacked Dominic. But instead of backing down, Dominic threw him to the ground and positioned himself on top, delivering endless punches. When Dominic went too far, I grabbed his arm and pleaded, "Please stop!" Victoria entered the kitchen, and I could feel everyone's eyes on us. "Are you okay?" she asked, holding me by the shoulders. I nodded, my voice still out of my control. "I just want to leave," I excused myself. Her eyes welled up with tears as she apologized. "I am so sorry, all I wanted was for you to feel better." Forcing a smile, I said, "Thanks for trying" as I made my way out. As I walked, I stumbled upon a park. My head was spinning, perhaps due to the drink. I sat on a nearby bench, trying to catch my breath. However, a sense of unease washed over me as I felt a shadow moving around me. Looking around, I noticed the bushes shaking in an irregular pattern, as if something was disturbing them. I scanned my surroundings an

    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. "The good news is, we ne

    Seeing his distress, I rushed to the kitchen to fetch a glass of water.When I returned and handed it to him, his eyes widened as if struck by a sudden idea. He took a few sips and stood up quickly. "I have an idea!"We all leaned in, eager for any glimmer of hope. "We can’t let anyone know that Evan was kidnapped," he said, his voice filled with urgency."Take him to the forest and then to the bus station. We need to keep him out of sight," the Sheriff instructed me, his voice filled with urgency. He then turned to Mr. Redwood, his tone firm. "Evan, listen to me very carefully. You will come back to town in the morning."He turned back to me, his eyes intense. "Help him clean up, and make him appear as normal as possible. We might have to involve your principal in this one, but don’t worry—I know what to do.Keep our next move hidden from the enemy. In the morning, after visiting the police station, come back to school, and you’ll teach everyone there. You’ll be safer with a crowd ar

    "We have a lot to tell you, but first, we have to get you back to your home," Victoria said, trying to smile. But her smile quickly vanished. "No, we can't take him to his home! People are after him!" She began to panic.I held her by her shoulders to calm her down. "We will take him to his home," I began. "Listen, Victoria! You need to go back to Viviana once I call the Sheriff." We quickly agreed on this plan. As soon as we got him back to his home, he was shocked to see the entire place turned upside down.I pulled out my phone and called the Sheriff. "We found him! We are at his home, come here so we can talk about his security!""On my way!" he replied before hanging up.Mr. Redwood’s eyes filled with worry. "Where is Luna? My cousin? You must have seen her, she has..." Before he could continue, I interrupted. "I know her," I began gently, "I’m sorry, but she's been hurt." I lowered my gaze, unable to meet his eyes.A cold silence fell over us as he looked at us in shock."What?

    Suddenly, that's when I heard coughing echo through the tunnel. My heart pounded as we pressed forward, the sound growing louder with each step.The wind seemed to howl and push us back, but we didn’t stop. We had to find him at any cost, no matter what happens next.My heart thudded so loudly that I had to clutch my chest. “What if it’s not him? What if he’s badly hurt? What if I am too late?” Doubts clawed at me, trying to hold me back, but I pushed through the fear and desperation.After what felt like an eternity, I finally saw him. There he was, after all this time, unconscious and chained to the wall, sweat dripping off him as if he’d just been pulled from a pool.I froze, my legs unwilling to move. A torrent of emotions surged through me, and I could no longer hold back. With heavy, trembling steps, I approached him. As soon as I got close, I collapsed to my knees. I cradled his face in my hands, gently brushing the damp hair from his forehead. He struggled to lift his heavy e

    Viviana began to chant an incantation, and soon Luna’s sobs quieted as she fell into a deep sleep.“There’s only one way to find out,” Viviana said thoughtfully. “We need to find a way to heal and restore her tongue.”“How are we going to do it?” I asked, eager to help.“I think I need to call a friend, someone you know too – Jade,” Viviana replied.“I need to contact her as soon as possible. Meanwhile, you should go back to the place where you found that blood-marked paper and bring it to me. I might be able to extract the sweat of the one who did this to her,” she suggested, placing a reassuring hand on my shoulder.I nodded, willing to go through any danger. “I’ll get it right away,” I said, feeling a renewed sense of purpose.Victoria yelled from upstairs, "I'll remain by her side to offer my help in any way possible." She then shrugged.I nodded in agreement, "I'll take Dominic with me." My statement was a mix of a question and a declaration.Dominic agreed, "Let's start moving."

    It was now important that we visit her immediately. "I guess we're heading to the cafe!" I said to my friends.They looked puzzled, but they followed me. We arrived at the cafe and everything seemed normal, until I spotted Claire by her cabin, motioning for us to come over with two fingers.We made our way to her, and as soon as she took us inside, she led us to her storeroom. What we saw left us breathless - it was Luna, and she was so weak that it seemed like she might not survive if she wasn't taken to the hospital.She was injured; someone must have attacked her. I felt regret for ever doubting her. I rushed to her, but Claire's words caught my attention."She's not speaking, she just wrote this," she said, showing me a note. It read, "Call Julia, don't call anyone else, please!" I looked at Luna, she was barely able to hold up her head and keep her eyes open."Who did this to you?" I asked gently. She couldn't answer; her mouth was sealed shut."Let's take her to the hospital!" I

    We exchanged confused glances, realizing that maybe she's right. Without wasting another second, we rushed out of her home. As we hurried, my phone rang. It was my mom.“Claire has been calling my number over and over again. She has something important to talk about!” Mom said, sounding worried, before hanging up.I looked at my phone and saw multiple missed calls from Claire. “It isn’t time yet,” I mumbled, leaving her a message, “I’ll be there on time!”Our hearts were racing wildly as we made our way back. My heart pounded as we reached his house. Dominic didn't hesitate; he stormed inside, with Victoria and me following closely. We began tearing through the house, moving carpets, checking for hidden doors, anything that could lead us to the basement.Suddenly, Dominic shouted, “Over here!” He had found a trapdoor hidden under an old rug in the living room. It was so well concealed that it was no wonder we missed it the first time.I felt a mix of hope and dread as we opened the do
