CHAPTER 60
It's a new day, finally. I'm not usually enthusiastic about Mondays but after what happened yesterday and the day before, going to school is now the highlight of my life especially now that I'm engaged to my chemistry partner.
In spite if everything that's happened, I'm pretty excited to be in public with him for the first time as his fiancee.
I'm brushing my hair when I hear my bedroom door open. I don't bother looking to see who it is because I recognize the scent, it's Ronnie. It's so unlike her to just barge in within knocking. Hmmm, I wonder what's that about.
"Evie, I need to talk to you." She sounds calm enough but there's something off about it, she doesn't sound nervous or cheerful which is very weird.
I don't stop brushing my hair but I do turn to look at her. "Sure, what is it?"
She stays quiet for a moment, just staring at and I start to recognize the R

Haunted Beasts CHAPTER 61
Forgive me Father for I have sinned against my mistress..... The first words are more like a confession rather than any sort of secret you would normally read in diaries. But then again, there's nothing normal about any of this. "Evie, are you okay?" Ronnie asks, she's sitting beside me in the back seat of the car which is unusual because I always sit with my father in the front, but after what happened last night, I think we both need our space. I quickly close the diary and hastily put it in my back pack. "Yes I'm fine." After what she just revealed to me she should know I'm far from being okay. I wonder how much of Aurora's secrets she read. I could easily read her mind and find out but my head is wrapped around Aurora's diary so much that I can't think of anything else. And I'm also trying to figure out how to confront Cassandra about
Haunted Beasts CHAPTER 62
Ronnie is practically paralyzed with fear, she's not moving and she isn't saying anything which is a relief, because I'm sure these two demon sisters rip her to shreds if she dares to do anything. And it's a good thing my dad is still unconscious, Lord knows he wouldn't be able to keep his mouth shut if he was awake. I'm still on the ground, waiting for the two demon sisters to pounce on me, or maybe only one of them will. I have had interactions with both of them and it's safe to say I managed to stay alive but I don't think I can fight them at the same time and come out unscathed. Sarrtina watches as her sister starts to approach me and my heart pounds as I prepare myself for a retaliation. I have to fight back, even if I don't win I have to try, for Ronnie, for my father and for myself. "Aren't you going to beg for your life?" She asks me, her voice calm. "Why would I beg you?" I retort, f
Haunted Beasts CHAPTER 63
Aurora is fuming so I'm fuming. Between the lightning and the electric currents radiating off of me, I would say neither Aurora nor I are in control at this point. I don't even know what is happening, everything is just so loud. James is on the ground screaming in pain and so is the demon girl. And it's because of me, I'm causing the noise and even though I want everything to stop, I just can't. Aurora won't let me, she's scared because she's never seen James in so much pain. And between her and my powers, I'm out of control. "Heaven?" His voice completely startles me. What is he doing here and is he real or just something my imagination conjured up? I wouldn't be surprised at this point. "Sky?" "You need to come down." He says quickly. "Amelia called 911 and they will be here soon so please get down." What is he saying? I should get d
Haunted Beasts CHAPTER 64
I don't exactly remember the last time I was in a hospital, but I do remember my entire family fussing all over me and trying their best to comfort me during one of my so called 'breakdowns'. What I never imagined was that one day I would be the one doing the fussing and the comforting. I'm trying my best to comfort Alice but she's losing her mind with worry and she's almost hysterical. I suppose it's natural, after all two of the people she loves most in the world were involved in a car accident and one of them has yet to wake up. I don't think I have ever seen her cry this much before or just cry in general. She's always happy and enthusiastic much like her cheery daughter. I know words won't do much at this point so I just hold her hand, quietly comforting her. Sky is seated beside me, rubbing my shoulder but he's also quiet, I think he's processing everything that's happened so far. It's easier for me because I'm starting to understand what
Haunted Beasts CHAPTER 65
I'm anxiously waiting for Cassandra to say something, anything that will give me an inkling as to why she suddenly has a change of heart regarding her Mistress Rosemont. Unlike Aurora, Nikolina, Amelia and Cassandra have always praised Mistress Rosemont. They see her as some kind of a savior so I'm taken aback by the fact that Cassandra is starting to doubt the woman who was practically their creator. "Cassandra....." I start but she quickly cuts me off. "It's Sarrtina!" She says quickly, rushing the words out. "What?" I really don't understand and it's not exactly easy to read another nonhuman's mind. "Do you remember the story I told, the one about my mate?" She asks and I nod. "Well, the reason why Mistress was so against the idea was because it was Sarrtina." "You and Sarrtina?" Well, I have always suspected that Cassandra might be
Haunted Beasts CHAPTER 66
Once upon a time I thought taking a trip to the hospital after 'cutting' myself was the highlight of my day. Yes, my life was that boring and uneventful. But now I find myself sort of missing that life, well only partly. Between demons constantly attacking me and the constant need to look over my shoulder everytime I leave the house, I could really use some boring days because this much excitement is going to make me lose my mind. Fortunately and surprisingly I get home with no trouble at all, no demons lurking in the streets, thank God. Not so surprisingly I'm very exhausted and I just want to go to bed. But as I take off my clothes I decide to at least bath first. Maybe I can wash away some of what I have been through today. Once in the bathtub I close my eyes and try to freeze out every bad thing going on in my life. To momentarily forget about Aurora, James, Soliaire and his demons. I jus
Haunted Beasts CHAPTER 67
I wake up on the floor with only my towel covering my nakedness. I don't even remember falling asleep. I don't even remember the last time I cried myself to sleep, but then again it's not everyday you hear about your impending death. Well dwelling on it won't get me anyway. I better get ready for school, I don't want to be late especially since I skipped yesterday, well it wasn't my choice but I still was absent. One of the upsides of being home alone is that I don't have to waste time on breakfast or waste time on morning pleasantries. So after quickly getting ready, I grab my stuff and drive Ronnie's car to school. It's such an unusual scene because I have only been in the driver's seat a few times in my life and that's counting the time I nearly ran over James in the parking lot. Well, in my defense he literally came out of nowhere. For such a clumsy driver, I manage to get to school in on
Haunted Beasts CHAPTER 68
It feels like it's been a while since I have had this kind of normalcy, the kind where we all sit together at lunch break, Ella's endless chatter and Kevin drooling over Amelia. Gosh, I even missed Phoebe though I would prefer it if she stopped thinking about my boyfriend so much, but she's finally giving up on trying to get with him especially now that she knows we are engaged. Well everyone knows and we have Ella to thank for that. Ella won't stop talking about mine and Sky's upcoming wedding. It should be irritating but it's not. I guess the fact that she's excited about it makes me happy, it's makes it feel like an actual wedding and not a solution to so many of my problems. "I have a question." Kevin says, looking at both Sky and I. "Are you guys really serious about getting married?" He asks and for a moment I think he's joking. "Because Evie you don't have to marry him just because you are pregnant. I know a guy who can help you o
