Reborn from Ashes Curse Two
Sophia POVI'm tired. Achilles and Perseus won't stop fighting, their auras are weighing heavily on my body and mind. Sometimes I can hear their thoughts as well, which confuses me because I can't even hear myself. "It's like cancer..." I whisper to myself and lower my head putting my hand on my chest. I may not feel the power of the curse yet, but I know it's there... "A malignant cancer that will metastasize and destroy everything, no matter who it hurts in the process."I try to block out any other external noise, focusing exclusively on trying to understand what's going on with me. As much as I find myself surrounded by supernatural creatures, magic, and more, my logical mind still won’t accept it."At the moment the curse is almost imperceptible, but it's certain to grow faster now that it's been exposed." I continue talking to myself. "Many doctors say that cancer has a life of its own and that's why it's so unpredictable. As soon as you just poke it, it turns into a monster.
Reborn from Ashes Defense plans
Khalid POVIf I hadn't lived so long, I would let it be known how much Sophia's decision affects me, because it gives me hope... Something I can't nurture, because I see how much these three love each other and Sophia will never look at me the same way.It would be a betrayal for me to court her... Something that goes against everything I believe in... If Perseus and Achilles were the idiots who hurt her, then I wouldn't care, but it's just the opposite, they're willing to do anything to help her.I know it's going to get harder and harder to resist, even more so if she's not united with others because of the bond. My Daemon is laughing at me because he loves to see me suffer in this type of situation since it doesn't happen often.'My dear... It is you who got carried away and now, here you are complaining... I warned you right at the beginning to be careful... You didn't listen, so stop whining!'My Daemon sneers. I have to stop myself from sighing. I know Alex suspects something af
Reborn from Ashes Instincts
Perseus POVI know I should be more patient... that I should improve my emotional intelligence, but how can I do that when the woman I love wants to reject me? As soon as she suggested it, I couldn't help feeling angry and hurt.There are too many things for me to take in at once. Besides, Helios is quiet, I haven't heard from him since I woke up. I can feel that he's still with me, but his presence is dim as though he's very tired.It is highly likely as we were in a coma for a long time and I don't remember much of anything. I know, for a fact, that something did happen because I remember feeling that Helios wasn’t with me, which left me with a feeling of apprehension and sadness as I didn't know if he would come back.I take Sophy's hand and bring it to my lips, not wanting the sparks to disappear. I sense that she doesn't like it when I lose control or when I act jealous.“I'm going to miss being able to feel you in my chest... Sharing our feelings... Our connection is perfect, a
Reborn from Ashes A wonderful surprise
Sophia POVMy chest hurts. It's been a constant pain since I woke up after my mates made their promise. I try not to let it get to me and not pass the pain onto them, but sometimes it gets too strong and they worry.“Let's bring in a heart monitor.” Dr. Ioannidis said.I know that Achilles and Perseus suggested it, so I won’t make a fuss over it, there’s been enough fighting, and if it brings them peace, then I’ll accept it. I need to give in too so that our bond isn't lost.“First,” Dr. Ioannidis continues, “I'd like to do an MRI, to check that your internal organs are alright, as well as examine you for scars from previous surgeries that you've undergone and try to ascertain whether you do, indeed, have any transplanted organs.” He finishes.Once the rejection ritual was agreed on, we discovered that there was so much more that needed to be investigated and taken into consideration. Doing the MRI and running a few tests, would help in providing crucial information before the ritual
Reborn from Ashes A shadow
Perseus POVThe game was a lot of fun, everyone laughed and there was certainly quite some tension when our dices didn’t let us do what we wanted, but the feelings of critical success were something surreal.I never thought I'd have this much fun playing the game. The story was different, but yet there are many similarities, as Khalid explained that several werewolves were involved in the development of the game and who helped to create the original story. Some of the creators were still asking the werewolves for help with new scenarios.This happens with almost every RPG.“Alright... At least now I understand the similarities...” Sophy comments in a more serious tone at the end of the explanation. “Which makes me very scared, because I know a lot of horror scenarios and if 5% of them are true, then this world is much worse than expected.”I was a little taken aback by Sophy’s statement. As far I am concerned, I don't think that anything too scary has happened for her to face so far
Reborn from Ashes Transformation?
Achilles POVKhalid was right about using my powers instinctively, because I feel completely exhausted. I don't know how the vampire is doing so well... Perseus also seems much more tired than usual.“Your wolves are recovering and came out to use the little energy that they had recovered while resting.” Khalid explained, as we sat at the dinner table.Soph is very tired, but she needs to eat, so the dinner is light, but with plenty of high protein meat.“It also means that it will take much longer for you to be able to go through the rejection ritual.” Hyperion said, which is something that we all already know.On the one hand, I'm happy, but on the other I'm scared. We don't know how strong the curse is able to or will become.I look at Soph and see her close her eyes. I quickly get up and take her in my arms. Her breathing is still steady as she leans her head on my shoulder. As much as she wants to stay awake, her body is very fragile and desperately needs the rest.“What can we d
Reborn from Ashes The first shift

Reborn from Ashes The first calls
Sophia POVI woke up with the noise of the alarm clock and yawned, looked at the time and it was time to go back to work. Apparently nothing had happened while I was sleeping. I got up, took a quick shower, brushed my teeth, did my business, then changed into a clean new uniform, fixed my badge and left the room.Soon I'm on the 42nd floor, the first thing I noticed is that some guards had changed shifts, as well as the doctor in charge. I arched an eyebrow at the updates next to the tablet I picked up at reception.“Hey Julie, good morning.” I greeted my friend.“Hi Soph, glad you’re back.” I heard her speak, relieved."Something happened?" I got tense, but I didn't take my eyes off the tablet, going through the information on each patient, it seemed that the majority that were there had not yet been released, it was because there was a trace of silver in the organism.“These people, you know…” Julie spoke in a low tone and I took a deep breath.They were the kind of people I hated,
