LOGINChapter 94“I think you’re ready,” Anora says as she dusts herself off with her hands and I chuckle with my smuggest face, feeling proud after winning a duel. “I’d love to think so too,” I say, cleaning my sword. This is our third and last training session before we leave tomorrow night, and it’s almost midnight. “You trained with Anora,” she says in a very proud but nonchalant voice, the smirk on her face finishing her sentence for her and I roll my eyes, chuckling. “Hopefully we shall meet again, Anora,” I stretch my hand for a shake, and she takes it, looking into my eyes and smiling as she fades away, her face and aura still as beautiful as ever.I pull the branch to leave and as the limbo fades into the forest, I expect to see a guard, but instead I see Sean, standing with both hands in his pockets. “Hey you,” he brings one out to hold me and I nearly collapsed in that hug, his and the soft fabric of his sweatshirt making me sleepy. “Here,” he says, and I see we’re already i
Chapter 93“Burdened with the responsibility to end a cursed lineage,” Sean sighs as we walk through the forest to his private ground while I tell him my dream, “That’s one hell of a burden.”“To think I was always meant to kill Dylan,” I sigh, still in shock from last night’s revelation. “And neither of my parents were human?”“Right?” He stops walking as we get to the clearing, “Now there’s an explanation for your powers and everything.”“Not everything Sean,” I say, still feeling very disturbed. “What am I? My dad was a werewolf, my mom a sorcerer and me, the fruit of a forbidden union. How come my powers were so suppressed that I never felt a thing? I need to see my mom.”“Hey,” Sean says softly and pulls me in for a warm hug, “One at a time, babe. Let’s survive this war together and together, we’ll figure everything out, okay?”I nod against his chest, not wanting to pull away, but sadly he does.“Now,” he pecks my forehead and walks toward the branch, “go distract yourself with
“Mom? Where’s dad?” I ask as she tucks me in, and she tenses up immediately. That was the first time I ever asked.“He’s out of town sweetie,” she kisses me and then turns off the light, “Sleep tight baby,” she says, hurrying out of the room avoiding any further questions, and I immediately know something’s wrong.Sighing, I turn the lights back on and cover my small seven-year-old frame with the sheets, a habit I’ve formed for whenever I can’t sleep. I feel someone lying beside me in the blanket and I jump out of my bed landing on the ground. A small elf the size of a watermelon comes out of the sheets. “Don’t you want to know about your dad?” he says, a small green elf wearing this weird little pink outfit and I scurry backwards. “Now child, I’m not here to harm you,” he says, raising both hands, then jumps down, “I’m here to heal you.”He stretches his right hand for me to take, and I point my index finger, seeing how small he is. As soon as our hands touch, I go through this mo
From her straight long legs and straight long jet black hair to her striking brown eyes and sparkling aura, I almost forget that she was a butterfly just a few minutes ago. She has on a very short purple skirt hugging her small curves with a small top made with the same soft material. A black quiver holding purple arrows hangs over her shoulders as she holds firmly onto a black bow in her right hand, a big shiny silver sword in her left. A very beautiful warrior, almost like an artist’s masterpiece.“Did this really happen or am I dreaming?” I ask when I’m finally able to pick my jaw from the floor.“If only you had dreams as sweet as this,” she says, smirking, her voice firm but so feminine, I don’t even feel offended. Who would feel offended by this beautiful creature in front of me? I’m in awe. “Who are you?” I clear my throat, trying not to act too impressed with how she looks. “Definitely not Pippa or Pip,” she scoffs, and I chuckle.“Anora,” she introduces herself smiling and
Chapter 90After very long hours, it’s finally dawn and I expect Sean to be here any moment. He seemed excited about showing me this private ground but had to leave to prepare for the war and would be back before sunset. Dressed in long black tights paired with an oversized white T-shirt and a black sports bra. I wore the comfiest sneakers I could find, which turned out to be a forest green color, so I paired it with a matching cross bag, letting my pendant sparkle on my chest. “Checking yourself out as usual, huh?” Sean appears behind me, holding me in his arms, and I seem to be getting really used to his teleportation, seeing as I do not flinch. “How was the meeting?” I say, rubbing his strong large arms around me with my small soft hands.“Productive,” he sighs. “We have just three nights to prepare, though. We leave on the third dawn from now.”“And the people?” I turn to face him, “are they being escorted safely?”“You worry about them, I worry about you,” he turns me around to
Chapter 89As usual, everyone stands up as we walk in and sit back down once we’re settled on our thrones. The whole council is present, not just the inner council, and I notice some guards standing by the door, which is unusual but not out of place in these unsafe times.“Apologies for being late,” Sean says, and they all bow a bit in response. “Straight to the matter at hand. Our kingdom is highly unsafe, and yes, I understand we need to fight back, but we also need to protect our people. I do not suggest we wait for them to attack first, because that will endanger our people and kingdom as a whole. Joe, have you checked the map?”“Yes, your highness,” Joe stands, “The Dragullar kingdom is too far a distance to teleport but with our fast race horses, we will travel only a day.”“Good,” Sean responds, “We’ll need some soldiers to stay behind and protect the kingdom. Zara, what’s your take on this?”“Your highness,” she stands and bows a little, “I will get on with that but would like
Jake's red and teary eyes widen in shock and pain as he falls to his knees, holding the knife in his chest but not being able to pull it out as he falls to the ground with a thud, my heart leaping for joy.Finally, that monstrous animal is out of the way. I should've made him suffer more, but I hav
"Cr-crystal?" he asks and rushes over to loosen the rope tied around me with a wide smile and teary eyes.The moisture forming in his eyes look so sincere I nearly fall for it a second time but realize myself and move back as he tried to pull me in for a hug, bringing confusion and hurt to his face
"Shall we?" Sean says and puts one hand on my shoulder as I look up into Betty's sad eyes, a tiny voice in my head screaming for me to jump into her arms, but I don't. It's better if things end this way.Strangely, right before my very eyes, she glitches like a sonogram, fading away along with the
Black round eyes, a bloody smile. Gruesome stench. Foul breath fanning my face, a result of how close his face is to mine."Baby," Dylan's eery, groggy voice resonates around this poorly illuminated room, "You promised not to leave me. But you did." Cocking his head to side, his neck makes a sicke
