Chapter Fifty: Earth tones
Lyanna Stuart
Being with Tate feels secure, warm and muted.
My world begins to look a lot like in earth tones. It's not the most striking colors but it gives me peace. Tate became the one grounding me back when things get tough. Arthur was dead and Tte told me even he couldn't bring him back.
There was no other way but to move forward without the hope of seeing Arthur again.
Sure it's slow but it's progress and everyday, I start to be a little more okay and everything is okay. I just hope it stays that way. I lived in fear that whenever happy is happening to me right now, a great deal of pain is ahead.
It may sound gloomy but so far, that's how life was for me.
Soon after, my thoughts we cut off as Tate sneaks in from my window. I chuckled after seeing him with some tree branches hanging loosely on his black hair. I took i

Lyanna StuartI was surprised to see them and without a warning, they had intended to kill me on sight and if it wasn't for Tate, I would have already been dead. They talked to each other in some latin language of some sort but more ancient that I couldn't understand it even if I tried.It didn't even sound familiar but it scared me but then, Tate looked at me with that face and somehow I knew.That... was the same face Arthur made before he left me. I felt a sharp sting in my heart. Was it happening again? Will he leave just like Arthur did? Slowly, I could feel my ground crumbling before my feet and there was nothing to do but fall once again.As soon as the other demons left, I immediately ran towards Tate and tended his wounds. I didn't know demons could bleed and that their blood is strikingly similar to ours. I said as I held onto his hand, "Are you okay? This seems deep. I'll

Arthur LangdonI won't lie.There have been days that I would find myself walking towards Lyanna- I kept saying to myself: "Just one more time.", "A quick glance and I'll go." but I know I'll never be satisfied with just that and so in each time, I stop myself.I have this reality check that we can't really be together.Besides, Tate is half human, his chances of being with Lyanna are better than my odds.Days have gone by- weeks even... I could barely keep up with the dates but all I know is that every other race is awaiting our father's stepping down as the strongest. Without a pure heir, everyone knows dragons are not much threat and it's the end of our legacy.JD comes back inside the hideout, frustrated and tired as he slumps to the couch after grabbing a beer or so.I asked, "How was it?

Lyanna StuartI don't know what made me do it. I usually don't but he was... captivating. Those broad shoulders and and white old-fashioned shirt with open buttons seem oddly familiar to me. He looked like someone who doesn't belong in here.My friends joked around, "Yo, where's the cosplay convention at, knight in shining armor?""Come on, Lyanna, let's leave the weird guy." The girls in our group nudged my shoulder pulling me away but as I walked past him, I stopped and stare. I let my hands fell from my friends' and I stood there.I looked back at him. I felt lost in his marvel.It must have been that stand out silver hair of his or that striking set of violet eyes that seemed sad and lost that got me. Yeah, it must have been that but for some reason, I grabbed my camera- one that I had just gotten out of my old things for our photography s

Tate GlassglowAs soon Lyanna's friends from our school left, I glanced around to check whether Arthur was still around. I sighed out of relief as I no longer sense his presence. Lyanna is still checking out antique ornaments from the town's fair.She is smiling so brightly and all it took was a simple handmade keychain.Lyanna walks toward me giving me the keychain she got. It was a cute black demon crochet which made me snicker. Lyanna smiled at me saying, "Look, it's you Tate."I smirk patting her head gently, "It's me."A couple passed us by with the girl's linked on her boyfriend's arm and cozy. I saw Lyanna's eyes glued to the two so I smirked, "Why? Should we do that too?"Lyanna embarrasedly looked away and said with his cheeks flustered, "N-no. What are you talking about? We just started dating and..

Tate GlassglowI immediately lost my cool and pushed Mortem to the wall eventually breaking it, I glared, "You had one job and that was to watch over Clarisse-""And we did!" Mortem fought back pushing me away and dusting off his suit, he continued, "We watched their house but we're demons Tate, we can't afford to stay close to humans for a long period of time without wanting to steal their soul. In those lapses of time, I think... Skye's meeting Clarisse.""You think?!"Mortem sighed as he pulled out Skye's ring finger from his pocket covered with cloth, "We know. One of the demons actually managed to fight her but Clarisse stood in the way. Skye's got Clarisse under her control, she's manipulating her and we... couldn't do anything without hurting Clarisse in the process too.""I'm going after Skye-" I said but Be

Arthur LangdonWhen Tate went here, I was on the verge of killing him. Seeing him along with Lyanna is torture but actually having the guts to come in our realm where he is powerless made me want to burn him to crisp but I can't.I can't hurt Lyanna like that.But just then, my brother JD along with Jason came bursting through the door saying that Clarisse has been kidnapped. I immediately pinned Tate to the wall with all my pent up fury and furstrations, I glared at him with my violet eyes saying, "You- what did you do? Did your demons stole ehr soul?"I looked back at JD and protested, "I told you, we never should have let the demons near Lyanna and her family. We shouldn't have let these soul-thirsty monsters take over their protection."Tate was choking when JD finally interfered, he said, "As much as I want to kill Tate for stealing Lyanna, it's not their fa

Skye BloomMeanwhile, as I awaited Lyanna's arrival to the kingdom of fairies with my trusty dagger, I felt a sudden sharp pang in my gut. I didn't know what it was but I was reminded of the time I was punched in the gut back when I was a kid. I was punched by my father as we were sparring.The pain was vivid and my father's face was as clear as it could be but there was someone else there, an older guy- it's my brother. It was Jason but why is he vanishing from my memory. I was sure Jason was there, he was the one who scolded my dad for hitting me too hard.What's happenin? Why can't I remember what he said back then...? Why can't I remember Jason being there?I felt a sense of panic looming over me.Worried, I went to the main hall where I see Clarisse's eyes slowly becoming lifeless as the queen fairy continues to transfer the blue flame. Clarisse is muttering

Arthur LangdonI felt the burning glare of Tate as I slowly reach out taking Lyanna's hand. All eyes were on me like I'm some entertainment show to enjoy but my eyes were fixed at Lyanna's eyes. Her eyelashes have always been adorably long and those pigments of color from her art works looks perfect.Time seems to slow down as I touched her hands. I felt a sharp sting in my chest as she smiled at me. I stumbled to find my words but soon I managed to mutter, "I''m Arthur.""Oh, you'reArt."Lyanna chuckled, "I'm sorry, I mean your nickname is art and it's kind of... cool I guess."I smiled gently at her.Soon, Lyanna lets go of my hand yet her touch lingered my fingertips as she slides hers away. I looked at my palm, trying to engrave this moment as I closed my fist with a smile on my face. Tate cleared his throat once again getting everyo
