As I toweled myself dry, I gritted my teeth in anger and retribution as I beheld the scars on my body; scars that had been left behind by Adam and his brothers.

They weren’t much, thanks to the wonderful medicines of Peter, but they were present on my skin, a reminder of what I had gone through.

Oh yes, I liked it to an extent. It would help me remember the atrocity the triplets had committed against me. It would help me never to forget their acts of wickedness. It would help me never to forgive them for their inhuman betrayal.

When I was done with drying myself up, I took up the clothes that Diana had left at the bed; and starting with the pants, which were black and stretchy, I got dressed.

They were okay. The big cloak—or was it a sweater? I was not sure—was okay. Good I had gotten used to wearing oversized shirts when I had been bullied at the pack.

Who would have believed that after the torment that Adam and his brother had put me through then, that I had still gone ahead to

    Can you believe it? ‘Grounded’ existed in the dictionary of these magic-infested beings.The first day, I had thought to sit it out, that maybe my parents would change their mind about the punishment, seeing how helpful I was around the house, even going as far as helping Peter in his farm. But the second day, I knew I was actually grounded till the Queen’s party.Do they expect me to remain in my room like a prisoner? I wasn’t even allowed to attend my training with the Queen. And the royal woman didn’t dare debate against me, because doing so might try the reins holding her. She was still on probation in the eyes of her people.So I spent my day reading anything I can lay my hand on, and practicing spells with Diana. My little sister was the only one enamored by my adventure that night. I had told her about it all, including my second encounter with the strange witch, and with the beasts.The beasts part was her most favorite. So much so that she thinks we should sneak out of the

    I shouldn’t have called her name, alongside her title. I should have said ‘my Queen’ but that would only alert her that something was up. I always called her by her name and title. Hopefully, she wouldn’t decide to go berserk on me tonight and kill me off. Hopefully she wouldn’t notice that I was powerless. Hopefully she wouldn’t notice my false bravado. “Don’t you think your prideful gestures are getting out of hand? And I am not talking about your rude way of addressing me…” The Queen started, coming to stand beside me, eyes on the starless sky. Well, at least there wasn’t a goblet or full moon tonight to point toward the warning of the strange witch. I believed I would survive. I wouldn’t be dying tonight. “I am talking about walking around the forbidden forest, with no guard, not even with your friends, or your foster parents. Do you think you are invincible?” she turned to me with narrowed eyes. “Are you invincible?” I raised my left brow. “Are you being serious now? And

    Outside was chillier than before. Or was it just my body shutting down?I wrapped my hands around myself, inhaling in and out softly, needing to tell my body that I was here, in charge, but my legs felt heavy and about to give out. One more step. I chanted with each step I took, until I was out of the library vicinity.I stopped, rested on a tree, and looked at the cave. What do I do about the illusion? Not that I expected the strange witch to be waiting for me, but I kind of thought she would be hovering somewhere, or maybe had put a spell for the illusion to return once I came out.How that spell would have worked, I don't know. I didn't think it existed. 'Just go, Maya. Yes, the Queen would know that someone had broken through her illusion, but she doesn't know that it is you. Even if she suspects, there is no evidence.'But I didn't want suspicion at all. I was uncertain what her next move would be. Maybe a stronger illusion I couldn't break, even with El's help? "Hey."Where di

    Three hours out, three books in, and I felt like I was floating in a sea of knowledge, never mind that most of them seemed unpractical; impossible realities spun from depraved minds.Because if it were true, then this world as I knew it was hanging on a very delicate thread. Try explaining to me how only a prophecy was stopping one supernatural species from attacking the other. It just didn’t make sense. And if it did, then it was a crazy-ass prophecy.About a certain one that bore the mark of divinity, which would bring both terror and peace… it sounded like a fairy-tale, but it was pleasing to read, pleasing and time-consuming.I was only able to cover three books because I had activated El’s speed reading, only that I had blown through the protein and chocolate bars I had come with. And now I was running on empty.El believed I should head out before I fainted in the library and became entrapped by the Queen. I thought so too, but only after I have finished this fourth book, which

    I was lost. I finally accepted it after running in circles for the fifth time, arriving at the same spot.I had marked the long tree—because that seemed to be the best adjective for the tallest tree I’ve seen in my life—after the second attempt had landed me right at its feet. What am I getting wrong?I looked around the dark forest--which once would have drowned me in fear, but now seemed mysterious to me--and I wondered where I had gone wrong.I had followed the area Rachel and her brother had led us through hours ago. I had stopped at the landmarks I saw then, so why wasn’t I seeing a wall? Why weren’t I seeing the caves? Was I missing something? Was it because I came from a party? Was there some code to this thing? ‘El, you gotta help me. What do I do?’ ‘You want me to locate the secret library?’ I rolled my eyes. ‘Of course. Can you do that?’ Please, know how to do that. For someone or something capable of much magic, surely locating a simple library was no task. I

  • Nemesis Of The Lycan Triplets   Bonfire IV

    "So where were you planning to go before we had interrupted your night?"This question was coming moments later, after we had stared into space for about five minutes; after we had talked tensely, at first, about mundane topics like dinner and breakfast; after steadier talks about the happenings in the pack and in the community—boring except for the late-night attacks which Adam thought came from vampires. The casual way with which the term had slipped from his lips—as normal as if he was talking about dinner—had left me stomped, until this new question of his.He really was that informed about vampires? Was it now taught in the pack's school? Were measures being made regarding it? I wanted to talk about all these, but he cut it all off with that stupid question of his, which sadly wouldn't be getting an answer. "Maya, you know you can trust me… I won't be telling anyone else…" Aha! Such golden words coming from the mouth of a son to the cunning Lycan. "After all, we are friends.
