Earis

Magnus pulled his shirt back, covering the burn so I would stop staring at it.

I couldn't feel my own body, and my heart felt like it was going to explode. That was the first clue that my world was ending and crumbling around me.

If I had any doubts previously, now they were all smoldered in this painfully, visible evidence.

“It's nothing little wolf, dragon's fire just takes a little longer to heal,” he said trying to reassure me, but that only terrified me more. If the burn heals then it'll form a scar!

Fuck!

The door creaked open again and Marble and Akira walked in.

“Babe, thank God you're okay. I was waiting to see you before I left,” Vanya beamed as she rushed towards Marble. And just like always the sound of smooching follows.

Magnus sighed.

“My lord, I have all I need to confirm if Cicada was lying about Armageddon,” Akira said as she walked towards us.

“Arma… what?”

“Don’t worry, I'm sure they're just the mumblings of a madman,” he said, darting his gaze away

    Earis Magnus pulled his shirt back, covering the burn so I would stop staring at it. I couldn't feel my own body, and my heart felt like it was going to explode.

  • Hunt Me, Mark Me    123. It has begun

    EarisWhat happened next was a mix of blurs and headaches. All I did whilst everyone ran around was cling to a child that wasn't mine. There was something I couldn't quite understand about her, and that kept me hooked throughout the drive. All I heard was the steady thump of her heartbeat as she slept.I didn't know where we were headed, but I saw a lot of vehicles leaving the mansion.“Earis, are you okay?” Marble said before I felt her cold hands graze my skin when she tried to put a coat on me. I didn't realize we had arrived at a different location but other vehicles didn't park alongside us. “Where’s Magnus and everyone?” I asked, looking up at Vanya who tried to assist me out of the car. There was a large wooden cabin in front of us, surrounded by a vast amount of forest. The air was fresher and more breathable compared to that of the mansion. “He had to deal with something, he’ll be here soon,” she responded as she held onto my waist and tried to lead me towards the cabin.

    Earis When I arrived at the center of the field where I had seen Akira, Magnus was covered in thousands of cuts, and he wasn't healing. The barrier had crumbled but only the center point that had hardened due to Akira’s strengthening spell caused damage. The dragon was directly above us, but it wasn't breathing fire anymore. It was just in the sky flapping its wings to remain in the air. My legs wobbled, and my heart thundered in my chest. That sickening paralysis threatened to retake root when I saw the view. Skylar took over almost immediately, lunging towards Magnus without delay. “Marble?!” Vanya yelled from behind me and her tiny footsteps followed. “Earis! Stand back!” Magnus growled but Skylar moved regardless. My heart thumped faster as Skylar exerted herself. “Mama…” A voice echoed in my head as Skylar came to a stop. “Mama help me…” the voice came again and I felt a knot curl deep in my stomach. It wasn't a voice I had heard before, but it rattled my bones, especia

    Magnus I didn't need my sight to know he was here, the stench of his hatred was thicker than any smoke. The second Earis left the room he stepped forward making himself visible to me. My blood boiled inside my veins. “Oh wow,” he grinned. “I never understood the werewolf's need for a mate, they only make us weak,” he spat. I lunged at him immediately, my claws bared, aiming to snap his head off his shoulders. “You must think I'm foolish to show myself to you! There's a threat greater than myself that threatens to burn the world down to the ground,” he said so calmly and I stopped when my claws were just an inch to the side of his face. As much as I hated it he was right. I know Cicada is obsessed with becoming me and there's no way in hell he'll show up just where I could kill him.He took two steps backwards just to be beyond my reach. His calmness clawed at my skin. He had no fear in his eyes, but my heart thumped in my chest. I couldn't shake the feeling of something happeni

    EarisSeraphine sat on one of the jeeps with her legs crossed. She was dressed in a short black flare skirt and a net crop top. She had dyed her hair black and pulled it into two ponytails, like a teenager going through a gothic phase. It was quite disturbing to be honest. I guess I'm not the only one who's changed. “Long time no see, Earis Lockwood,” she said with a smirk on her lips. Her voice was lighter than I remembered, almost like she wasn't the same person. Skylar stepped forward, baring her fangs as she shielded Vanya. “That's quite a look you got there… I guess you didn't feel loved after all,” Vanya scoffed, her disdain laced in every word. “I guess we hate whomever this is…” Skylar snarled, her claws breaking the earth beneath my paws. I wanted to lunge at her and break her ribs, then let her heal so I could do it all over again. But she smelled different, not the stale stench of meat vampires always carried around. Magnus had told me about the Lazarus pit and its ef

  • Hunt Me, Mark Me    119. A surprise visit

    EarisThe sun was barely in the sky when an immense amount of heat, accompanied by flames, scorched the glass window, turning it black and melting it before my very eyes. Magnus stepped in front of me, shielding me from the heat as the glass melted instead of breaking, a solid proof of the concentration of whatever had started the fire. My heart thundered in my chest. Skylar snarled inside my head, standing in a defensive pose ready to attack. In one swift motion, he pulled the sheets from the bed and wrapped them around me. “Earis, I need you to find marble,” Magnus snarled in Strigha's voice. His eyes turned red and his claws protruded from his fingers. “Why?! I'm not leaving you!” I retorted. “This is not the time to be stubborn, trust me little wolf,” he spat back, pushing me towards the entrance of the room that was filled with smoke. I started coughing immediately. The smoke had filled my lungs, and even with Skylar’s help, it was still hard to breathe. My eyes began to s
