*Alyssa* I sat cross-legged on the plush tapestry floor, my eyes closed in deep meditation. The room was filled with an ethereal haze and a swirling mist that carried the scent of magic. The red crystal Amulet around my neck pulsed with a vibrant light, casting an otherworldly glow upon my face. My mind wandered into a strange realm. As the mist thickened around me, I felt a subtle shift in the air. Opening my eyes, I found myself standing before a grand full-body mirror. My reflection stared back at me, but something was different. The figure in the mirror was me, yet not me. She was dressed in a warrior's outfit, her eyes fierce and determined. It was as if I were looking at an alternate version of myself, a warrior version that looked outstandingly beautiful. The woman in the mirror spoke, her voice resonating with a wisdom beyond my years. "Alyssa, I have come to offer you guidance. As you are destined to save not just the physical realm but also the magical realm. Azrael's dark
*Alyssa*I blinked simultaneously trying to make sense of what I was seeing. Was it a trick of the light, or something more sinister? I glanced back at Rona, who seemed unaware of the mirror's strange reflection. She appeared worn out as if she had been drained of her vitality.Doubt nagged at me, but I pushed it aside. I trusted the woman in the mirror, despite the unsettling encounter between her and Rona. There was a greater purpose at play, and I needed to focus on unraveling the mysteries that surrounded me.With a deep breath, I tore my gaze away from the mirror and approached Rona. Placing a comforting hand on her shoulder, I smiled weakly. "Are you alright, Rona?" I asked, concerned about lacing my voice.Rona's tired eyes met mine, and she forced a smile. "Just a moment," Rona replied, her voice strained. She attempted to take a step forward, but a sudden searing burn engulfed her body, causing her to collapse onto the floor. I rushed to her side, panic coursing through my vei
*Alyssa*"Ah!" I moaned loudly as Rurac placed himself in between my legs. I could feel it, he had a boner and he was pressing down on my wet entrance, rubbing me there. Causing a delicious friction that felt immensely pleasurable all the while kissing and licking on my neck, arousing all my senses and making me vulnerable and bewitched by his movements."Ah... Alyssa....we need-" I brought him down on me and switched our positions. I was now laying atop him and straddling him feeling his cock twitch beneath me. "No talk for now.... please" I pressed my lips against his and he opened up for me to explore more and more on the insides of his delicious mouth. Suddenly, I felt myself being pulled back down to the bed. Rurac had switched positions once more."We don't need to stop talking" and he locked lips with me again. He was driving me crazy and still bringing me back to my sanity all at once but I didn't want my sanity back. Not now. Just not yet. I wanted him, I had no idea how crazy
*Alyssa*The afternoon sun spilled through the curtains, casting a warm glow on the room. As I slowly awakened from my deep comforting slumber, the first thing I noticed was the intense gaze of Rurac, fixed upon me. His eyes sparkled with a mixture of relief and adoration, and it took a moment for my groggy mind to register that our reunion was not just a mere dream."Good afternoon, my love," He murmured, his voice hoarse from sleep. "Is it all real? Are we truly together again?"Rurac's smile widened, and he reached out to caress my cheek. "Yes, Alyssa, it's real. You're safe, and we're finally together."A wave of emotion washed over me, as the weight of the past months' captivity lifted from my shoulders. I sat up, feeling the cool sheets slide off my body and rested at my hip, revealing my breast, and wrapped my arms around Rurac in a tight embrace. His familiar scent enveloped me, and I reveled in the warmth of his presence."I can't express how relieved I am to see you and be wi
*Alyssa*As I sat before my parents I couldn't help but feel a bit fulfilled. It's like we were complete except for that one person that had secluded herself from our lives a few months ago. Jenny. I'm sure she must've heard of the war going on. I thought she'd be worried about my safety and push through to me. I guess I was wrong about her.Sadness crept into my heart as I thought of how she had just abandoned our family knowing the consequences. Of course, she didn't try to come back. She almost started a war herself and she must think this war going on right now is her fault. I breathed a huge sigh, trying to get rid of my pained thoughts when suddenly I felt a warm hand wrap on mine. I gazed up to find it was Rurac's hand, he must've sensed my sadness and turned his attention to me.I gazed up at my parents. They both had a look in their eyes, one I had never seen on them before so I couldn't truly apprehend it or its meaning. The only thing I understood was that it seemed like a
*Rurac*As I sat before Alyssa's parents, I couldn't help but feel uneasy about Alyssa having the Amulet. She was right, the amulet does hold immense power but the power also comes with consequences for every power used. I had done my research on the Amulet of the Belvidere Illinois. And I found that once in control of it, the owner is eternally bound by the magical forces. Dreams, visions, and even the dead would seek the owner because of this immense power.The Amulet of Belvidere Illinois can bring one who is in the land of the dead for centuries back to life and it could also send one there. The Amulet itself has a guardian who was once a vampire, who is locked inside of it as punishment for its misdeeds while being alive. A selfish vampire guardian who had ruled over the vampires cruelly and had been caged inside the Amulet for centuries to cultivate herself.I wondered if Alyssa knew about this as well, but right now I couldn't object, the determination in her eyes made her so be
Alyssa.I saw it, the memories I knew weren't mine. I was on a strange continent surrounded by people of my kind, werewolves. I saw all of this girl's memory, a girl who looked exactly like me with no stark difference. No detail could help point out that she wasn't me.Then I met Rasmus, her mate who also had a stark resemblance to my mate Rurac. At first, I didn't understand what was going on but as I watched more and more of the memories I came to realize that I was seeing the memories of the girl in my Amulet and I am her second soul which was parted from her to represent her on earth.My mind immediately shifted to what she had said to me back in Azrael's camp and in that third tapestry. "Who... who are you?" I had asked her, my voice barely audible."I am the guardian of the Belvidere Illinois Amulet, Alyssa. I have chosen you Alyssa to be the new owner of the Amulet as you are the fated one. I am the embodiment of your true potential, the warrior within and a part you haven't fo
*Alyssa*Rurac and I got home on time, I wanted to use the Amulet's magic to teleport us, but I could still see disapproval in his eyes. I looked around the house that had now become a home for me. I missed it. I took in every single detail, burying it deep in my memory to not ever forget it.As we passed by the kitchen island, I found a tall figure with dark short hair sizzling something that smelt delicious. "Dimitri?" I called my voice barely above a whisper but just loud enough to get his attention."Nice to have you back my Lady" He turned and greeted me, I felt my mind swirling with thousands of emotions and I couldn't help it anymore and tried to move towards him and envelope him in a tight hug. But then, there was a tight grip at my waist and I looked up to find Rurac shifting his gazes everywhere except for me and Dimitri. His jaw clenched and his teeth ticked."What's wrong?" I asked but got no reply, instead, he released me from his grip. Free at last, I lunged myself towar
