“So that’s your condition? To not use any of our vampire skills while in your house? That should be fine,” Hail shrugged and focused on the crème brûlée he is eating. He already ate two of them but he can’t just get enough of them. These custards are out of the world, so he thought of learning how to cook them. “That’s great then. As much as possible, do not attract people with your weird actions that only vampires can understand,” Jet said. Humans in the vampire world are weird but vampires in the human world are even weirder and more dangerous. Jet and Raze could not have full control over their brothers’ brain; that's why warning them is the best way they can do for now. Little did they know, a lot of vampires have already been living in the human world for a couple of years, adapted to the environment, and are now living like normal people. “We’ll try our best,” Claude assured them. That night, Magnus, Saint, and Claude slept in the Eleazar’s guest room while Hail and Silas sl
Red: Orphans and Royalties Chapter 25: Boracay Night
Beach and summer are one of the best pairs in the world. There is nothing more exciting than to surround yourself in the saltwater while searching for authentic sea shells or riding on the waves. That will be the perfect time to let the waves take away your stress, fears, and worries. After managing all their things, the Reds, led by Jet and Raze, walked along Boracay’s seashore. There are a lot of people with different nationalities having fun in the crystal clear water. They finished setting up during the sunset when people are already coming out of the water and tidying up in the cottages, preparing to leave. Although given the chance, the Reds refused to submerge themselves in the water, putting the ENVO mission as their priority. A wave in the toes was just fine and enough.“Can’t sleep, too?” Jet asked, his hands buried in the pocket of his pants. He is wearing a jacket and thick pants to protect himself in the cold. Magnus looked up to him and then back to the fine sand. Mag

The Reds can't really say, "expect the unexpected". This is their main reason for coming here at Boracay: to check up on the abuses this place gets and find the culprit. But they didn't expect that they would do it as early as now on this unsuspected night."There it is. I'm pretty sure there is a fire going on," Hail pointed out the glowing mountain top. The fire seems to be a bit bigger than the first time they saw it.All of them ran quickly inside after realizing what's happening. "Bring your flashlights and any weapons you can use. This is our first mission together. The culprit must be held accountable tonight," Jet instructed them. The seven of them shoved their items in their backpacks. In addition, they brought a few liters of water, in hopes that they could cease the fire before it spreads."Let's go," Magnus said.--They all walked as briskly as they could under the bright moonlight. With flashlights on their hands, the Reds stopped after reaching the foot of the mountain.

“Raze!” Saint shouted when he spotted Raze’s back. He ran faster than he knew to reach his brother as quickly as possible. Saint gasped for air when he saw Raze holding up a person in the air, choking him with his tensed hands. “Put me down, you monster!” The old man screamed. He keeps on fighting Raze’s tight grip on his neck. The man is in his 60’s, wearing a dark green long sleeve and a parachute pants. His slippers are on the leaves as his bare feet are hung up in the air. Saint saw how Raze’s eyes glowed brighter. “You must pay the consequences of your action. And no, I won’t let you go until you are captured and put to jail,” Raze emphasized. Is he the one who put the trees on fire? The man’s angry yet desperate cry brought back Saint in reality. He grabbed Raze’s wrist, “You’re choking him to death, Raze. Let him go!” he shouted. “No! He’s the one who burned the trees. He should be accountable for his crime!” Raze insisted. Saint has no other choice but to use his stren

In no time, the Reds are on the helicopter sent by ENVO. Panic consumes the empty space between them. It’s been five minutes since they got on the vehicle yet for them, it feels like an hour has already passed. “We’ll travel faster in our form,” Magnus muttered. He badly wants to go to Red Woods. Unfortunately, he can’t right now. “Go on, transform and freak everyone out.”“Our home is in danger, Jet,” Silas whispered, his breath almost burning Jet’s ear. He can feel the collision of concern, impatience, and madness from that. “I know, I heard it myself. But please calm down, Silas. You cannot jump off from this helicopter. We’ll get there within this day,” Jet assured and pushed Silas’ head gently away from him. He looked for Hail and Claude who were suspiciously quiet since they got in the vehicle. Both of them have their eyes closed, but not sleeping. Maybe it’s their way of dealing with stress, Jet thought. Magnus and Saint are both looking at the clouds, counting how many sec

“I won’t be staying here for long. ENVO needs me, especially since these guys left the Boracay mission,” Light said after eating the last slice of his steak. “I missed it already,” Saint whispered. He wished they had more time to fully enjoy the beach. His eyes were sparkling at the jetski! “You can come back when everything’s fine here at Red Woods,” Light assured them. Saint’s fading hope was recharged. They don’t know that exact date but he looks forward to seeing a beach again. “I guess we will also go home, Sun. Thank you for the dinner.” Light carefully stood up and had fist bump with his twin. If it is not with their different clothes, they are like a living mirror. “See you tomorrow, kiddos!” The seven of them waved goodbyes on their chairs as Sun walked Light out of the ministry. After the door closes, the Reds are surrounded with quietness. No one dared to start a conversation. Or no one knows how to do it. “I think I heard you talking earlier, Hail,” Jet spoke. “Your

“Your parents?” Silas asked for clarification. “Yes! I have a picture of my mom when she was younger. I kept it in my wallet,” Jet hurriedly said and took out a polaroid photo with her mom on it and handed it to Silas. They immediately placed it side by side with the picture in the album. Jet might be right. Those two pictures are really identical despite the difference in posture and clothes. Saint nudged his elbow on Raze’s, silently asking for a reference picture just like what Jet did. “I only saw my dad in pictures Mom has shown me,” Raze quietly responded, lowering his head down. The six of them exchanged glares, asking with their eyes what is the most appropriate word to reply. “Don’t worry about me, I’m used to it. Let’s solve this mystery right away. We still have to eat. Faster than a lightning, Raze’s weary voice shifted to an energetic, curious one. He also sneaked in between Hail and Silas. “Why are they with the vampires? Don’t tell me they are…”“Vampires? I don’t t
Red: Orphans and Royalties Chapter 31: Identity
In a secret room located at the Chairman’s office, Sun was deliberately scanning the contents of the opened barrier the royal vampires handed. It is indeed, the lost Red Woods Royal Album dated before the worst war they encountered — The Human-Vampire War.The Royal Album consisted of pictures of the previous Kings and Queens from different regions of Red Woods. Images of the greatest warriors and hunters and life in the whole community are also included in the compilation. “The truth is slowly unveiling itself,” Sun whispered as he browsed through the pictures where Jet’s Mom and Raze’s Dad are completely shown up. Eliana Riziel. Chief Commander for Archery, Cerise, Red WoodsHarvard Deviosa. Master Hunter, Red WoodsThese are the parents of the new royals who happened to be prominent people of Red Woods. Before Sun could indulge himself with theories that lead up to where they are now, he flipped to the next page where he is welcomed by photographs with notes scribbled below them.
