"Hell no! I am so not going inside that hell hole," Natasha said folding her hands across her chest." Hell yeah, You are so going inside the hell hole." I said and start dragging her inside the cave where Gunner and Susan were already seated waiting. Gunner threw a bored glance at us before turning around and continue chatting with my sister."Holy Shit! What is that?" Natasha said faking a surprised expression while staring at the mountain side. I smacked her in the shoulder and continued dragging her towards the cave."You are not fooling anyone with that act..." I was saying before she cut me off."It's not an act... Look at that" she said pushing me aside probably to get a better view of whatever, or maybe to stand straight. I wanted to argue more and continue pushing her inside but the sounds of horses and chariots and warriors booth cleared all remaining doubt out of my mind.The vampires are coming! They are so close to us and th
(Two hundred and Twenty two years earlier)Charlotte's point of view"Mama! Mama! let's go already, the Pocey family are already waiting for us, we can't keep them waiting for that long. " I called after my mom as she walked out of the bathroom, she wasn't even ready yet? "Please calm down honey, I don't want them to think we are too earger to meet them." She sat down on her dressing stool that was facing the dressing mirror in her room and started rubbing her body lotion on her body. I noticed that she was having a had time massaging her back bone and offered to help."Here, give me the cream let me help you," I offered as I collected the bottle of body lotion from her hands and started to apply it all over her back where her hands could not reach."You look so excited to meet the Pocey family are you sure you don't have any other thing in mind? " She asked as her eyes twinkled with excitement." Mom..." I began to whine b
(Present day)Ash's POVWhat did you say?" She asked her hands finding her slim waist as she clutched her dagger."I did not speak french or Spanish did I?" She glared at me her fingers closing in on her short sword, I smirked at her temperament "I said that it is going to take a lot more than that little threat of yours to stop me from... Aghh. " I stared up in horror at Charlotte as the tip of her blade rode through my chest.I struggled to get my breathing together but it was impossible considering the fact that my heart was wide open and my breathing was now seeping through the open heart.As I stared up at her face her expression was unreadable, I thought she was my friend... But now I knew she was not will never be my friend, maybe I was just foolish enough to think that vampire were the same as every other creature on Earth.Now I know they are not the same, the are heartless and dangerously cunning. I stared up at her bl
Later that same day, I was seated in the dungeon with my back resting on the wall when a guard came and opened the door.Without saying anything, she grabbed my hands and jam the golden cuff against my hands.Against my better judgement, the girl was surprisingly gentle with me so I decided to push my luck."Where are you taking me?" She snapped her head sharply turning to look at me, I feared that I might have annoyed her with my stupid questions."I am taking you to the queen...""Why?" I asked panic risings in the pit of my stomach. Are they going to kill me? Or Maybe use me for one of their stupid sacrifices? I shivered in fear at the thought quickly rebuking myself."That is where you will be sold to the highest bidder." She said looking as sympathetic as a vampire could look.I cocked my head to the side trying to communicate with my wolf but that seemed to be the most impossible thing still. She hadn't spoken to m
I turned to run but stopped when I caught a glimpse of the short pistol levelled at my head.Delilah's pistol was levelled at me while smirking, "where do you think you are going?"I stood transfixed while staring helplessly at the point of the gun pointing at my temple."Let her go Delilah," the unknown man said as he delivered a killing blow at the guard. The ambitious guard who identified himself as Tommy collapse on the floor out cold."Who is she?" Delilah asked, I sighed in relief figuring out that she did not recognize me." My Business, so out of the way," the man said and removed Delilah's pistol from my face.I started following the man out of the house. We stepped out of the palace and rushed over to the parking lot, a black SUV was parked at the far end of the parking lot, with the black SUV being the only car at the lot I rushed over to it and opened the door to step in but when I noticed that the man who saved me wa
A few weeks later.Theodora (Ashley) POVI was standing in the front of a giant mirror while glaring at myself, I had not yet gotten over the truth that my wolf is dead.Save for the gift of the egg that Lord and lady Percival gave me, I would have been companion-less, though the Cub has not spoken to me yet but I was still hopeful that the it will one day grow up and be the same with me.I had been training all weeks and then Cub was really growing up faster than a normal animal. Though the little Cub would not let me be apart from him.It happened one time when I left the little animal to sleep on my bed and went out of the room get coffee, the distance created between me and the little beast woke it up. And it started searching for me immediately.Out of curiosity, I had asked the question that was on my mind since Lord Percival gave me the Phoenix's essence."Are you... You are not vampires?" I had asked staring deep
Without wasting much of your time we will start by hearing what the juries think." My heart was beating faster than I can say, this is the ticket to my freedom, I hope I don't screw up."Let's welcome the judges and juries of tonight's competition, give a round of applause to them. " He gestured towards the judges and juries table at the outer part of the stage."Dr Ian Jade is one of the juries let's start with him," a dark man in a dark brown tux, adjusted the collar of his tux before speaking softly, from the way he moves I could tell that he was a very powerful man."I will just go straight to the point, I think the fourth castle has all that it takes," he said."Can you please elaborate?" The announcer said."What I mean is that the fourth castle is magnificent, it is spaciously huge, beautiful, and more modern than all the other four." I looked at the screen and noticed that I was number two."He is totally sold off that th
"I will do everything in my power to make sure my mother become the queen of Storm-cloud," he said "anything at all,"He pressed my back against the pole and started suffocating me until everything began to get blurry, tears were already spilling down my left cheek."No I don't want the throne, I just want to make my son proud, I am Emery by the way"Those words echoes in my mind as I slowly began to loose consciousnessJust as I was about to totally pass out, I saw another hooded figure at the back of the man that attacked me.But instead of standing as a guard over the door, the golden masked figure grabbed the silver masked figure and yank him away from me.I gasped as air began to flow back into my lungs, my life flashed before me, collapsing on the bare floor gasping in the desperate need of chilled water.I looked up to face the two hooded figure who were now fighting it off with their magic. I wondered if the gold
