Human world*Rowena's povGiselle and I sat at a table in a popular local bar down the street, and while Giselle kept sipping from her tumbler of beer, I was lost in my thoughts of where exactly Jaden could have gone."It's been hours since he went missing; don't you think it's time we involved the cops?"She stared at me for a while, swallowed the beer she was storing in her mouth for reasons best known to her, and dropped the tumbler."And tell them what?A grown man left the house last night after a little argument, and now we can't find him anywhere, and worse still, his number isn't connecting?" She replied dramatically."You call what happened last night a 'little argument'? You were about to kiss your younger sister's lover, and you call that a 'little argument'!"I was fuming, and flashes of what I saw last night kept replaying in my head as I fought with the urge to pull her hair off of her scalp."Well, if that's how you see it, then it's clearly not my fault that your so-c

Wizard Kingdom*Writer's pov"Arrrghhh!How could you do this to me, Maximon?"Jaden shrieked in anguish as Maximon, or, should one say, Rafar, tortured him beyond human imagination.Of course, what more was expected of a man who feeds off the cries of pain from whoever falls prey to his deadly trap?The Queen stood graciously at the end of the large room with Gwen and her sister, both of whom didn't enjoy being part of whatever little game they were playing with the prince."Why not just kill him right away and get this done with?" Gwen murmured and looked around to make sure no one heard her.The Queen smiled mischievously as she watched her right-hand man turn the prince into a pauper begging for his life.Rafar walked to Jaden with metal pliers in his hands. Jaden knew the worst was about to happen, and he started to struggle in his chains, but it was fruitless."You will pay dearly for this maxim!" Jaden cried."Rafar, little prince, the name's Rafar. And I do not have any time f

Chapter 24Rowena's povGiselle stared at me like I spoke a completely different language. I knew I was about to be a fool for love again, but I couldn't help it; after all, I am cursed."What did you just say?" She blinked."I'll do it," I repeated. I immediately began to walk to the room so I could grab my coat, and she followed me quickly."Let's say you do manage to cross this bridge and get to the other side. How do you expect to rescue him? Do you think you will be in the kind of state to fight wizards?" She yelled, and a realisation hit me.I was so fired up by the fact that the man I was in love with was in danger that I didn't think anything through."Get your shit together, Ro," she added, and I watched her fingers run through her dense hair."So I should just let him get killed?" I asked, and my voice sounded a lot less fierce than I expected it to be. I knew I was scared.Terribly scared."The only sensible thing you've said this evening," she replied. She watched me while

Jaden's povWhen I was done wallowing in the awe of my new-found abilities, my senses returned, and I bolted.It was impossible to run when I got to the hallway; the place was crowded with people dressed in plaid attire like they were from ancient England.It was a good thing no one knew what I looked like because it made it easy for me to glide through the crowd.I was sweating profusely, my hair was damp, and my underarms felt terrible. I wondered carefully for hours, trying to find an escape route, but for some reason I ended up going back to the place I started from.The prison."Let's go see how our young prince is doing."I heard that awful, familiar voice giggle, and that was when I cornered into a room. I had to find a means of escape, and fast, because it was obviously a matter of minutes before they found out.Immediately, I noticed a bright, blinding light from behind me and shielded my eyes as I turned to look at it.A door had opened, and my heart raced so fast I could hea

Rowena's povWhen they were done running around, we finally sat down to eat.As we ate, I watched Jaden play with his food. I couldn't blame him because if I were him, I would definitely have a lot of things to ask.Giselle nudged my side with her elbow when she noticed I was staring too much, and I immediately returned my gaze to my food."Are you sure we shouldn't take her to a hospital?" He asked Giselle, like I was not sitting right there.Giselle dropped her fork and violently rolled her eyes at him."Of course we should take her to the hospital and tell them that she got the burns from a bridge hanging over naked flames in the wizard kingdom." She replied dramatically."How do you think that sounds?" She added, and he slowly returned to his food like a kid scolded by his mother."Giselle, calm down," I whispered, and she sneered."But it'll be too painful to let it heal on its own," he stated again.I raised a brow at him, hoping it'd make him shut up and stop triggering Giselle

Chapter 1Rowena****The tension in the sky domain remained. Everyone was angry at me. They were disappointed. I didn't know why they couldn't reason with me on this. The sky was clouded with their anger and my pain. Why did they make it such a big deal? I was just in love."Rowena, Be Quiet! You can't fall in love with a human! You're not even allowed to get married!" yelled my sister Genevieve. "We are guardians, for goodness sake. Have you ever heard of a guardian in love?" She yelled further, briskly walking toward me. Maybe if she shortened the distance, I'd get the message."You're messing with the balance of things," added my second sister, Penelope. Penelope and Genevieve are like two peas in a pod; they always see eye to eye and there's never one without the other.My third sister, Giselle, didn't really care about anything, and this made her my favorite."Rowena, I have no problem with you falling in love, but this is bad," she said, keeping her eyes on the cloud spe

Chapter 2Jaden Scotts **************** Jaden Scott is a tall and muscular guy with trimmed jet-black curly hair and blue eyes. He is 23 years old.Mostly, he's a mess. ******He got out of his car that evening feeling fatigued. As usual, his nights were shaky. There was nothing that made this worse than getting called on the job first thing in the morning. He got up, took a shower, and decided to skip breakfast as usual. He always gets his breakfast from a coffee shop close to his office. As he approached the crime scene, he raised the yellow tape with the phrase "Police line do not cross" written on it, and he could already feel the eerie atmosphere. Although he was used to the job, he just couldn't get familiar with crime scenes.It was a duplex. The deceased was a woman named Carrie Sam, a 24-year-old blonde, stabbed repeatedly in the chest and eye.He bent to examine her body as it lay on the cold floor in a pool of already clotted blood. He stayed there, trying to

Chapter 3ROWENA'S POV"Working in a coffee shop was a lot harder than I expected," I thought, as I walked down the road after work that evening. I had to attend to various kinds of people, and there was one older man that couldn't make up his mind, and it was very frustrating."What can I get you, sir?" I asked with a smile. "A cup of latte please," he replied, and I went to get it for him. After I returned with it, "Did I say latte? I mean iced Americano" he said."Excuse me, sir," I said, raising my voice."You're going to have to pay for the latte I already got.""I made a mistake, all humans make mistakes," he said sentimentally. "I know, sir, but we can't lose because of your errors," I replied calmly, ignoring the rage rising in my throat."It's fine, that's enough," Peter interrupted when the man was about to reply. "I'll pay for it," he added, and that was it.It annoyed me that he decided to be the bigger person but I just kept mute the rest of the day.I kept walking, a
