“Are you not aware that this kind of accident might happen if you’re walking alone here, at this hour, with your tiny flashlight?” I scratched my forehead and smiled a bit, “I didn’t expect this to happen, I checked my car before I went here, and I don’t know what might be the reason why it broke,” “What’s this, by the way?” he pointed out the bags he was carrying; Aaron must be that strong; he was holding it as if he was taking a rim of paper, “And where are you going?” “The company I was working for a new program, and one of these was reaching villages without access to education; I was a teacher before I entered corporate work, so I initiate to be sent here, and those,” I looked at the bags, “Those are my materials for teaching, it’s heavy, I’m sorry,”“No big deal, it’s not that heavy,” I can’t actually talk right now; I’m still shocked by what happened; however, with Aaron’s presence, I felt comfort; we talked about random things; it was a friendly chat; I just realize
“Where have you all been, stupid?” the lady said, chuckling, seeing her brother and cousins with wounds and fresh blood on their faces and clothes, “You guys are a mess, not lucky enough to hunt your dinner?” “Shut up, brat,” the man hissed and went to the sink to rinse the blood; it was not their victim’s blood, it was their blood; they almost died while fighting with the man. They stumbled while looking for their meal. He stopped when he remembered something; the woman’s blood was both familiar and odd, it was so delicious that he wanted to drink until its last drop, but there was something strange with that. Her eyes were different, and she could conceal her presence; the man didn’t know if it was unintentional. Also, the man who saved her they have the same blood scent, but the smell of his blood is dominating as the woman. Are they related to each other? “Wait,” the lady stopped and immediately went to her brother, who was cleaning himself, “What’s that smell? That was fu
“What happened? Is she alright? Why does she look so pale?” “We don’t know, Sinitra; we just found her unconscious in the middle of the woods,” I heard some familiar faint voices nearby; what’s happening? Where am I? why do I feel like I’m lying on the clouds? The last thing that I remember is that I was almost out of breath, then everything went black. “She must have been exhausted from the days she stayed here; she wasn’t able to rest due to lots of requests and lessons,” I slowly opened my eyes, and a familiar ceiling welcomed me; I felt a little dizzy, and my chest still ached, but unlike before I passed out, I tried to breathe again; it was more okay. “She’s awake!” excitement filled the room; I could see something glowing. My forehead creased. What was that? What was that shining thing covering their body? They have different colors. Some have green, some have white, yellow, red, and black? Is that, Is that their life energy? How the... How the heck am I able to s
“Thank you for all the help and learnings you brought here, Celeste,” Sinitra said, while walking me to the entrance of their village, “Make sure to come again, you are always welcome here,” I smiled and nodded, the whole villager citizen was with me, as I’m bidding my goodbye to them, I extended for another two days, due to what happen in the woods, my eyes were still a mystery to me, I thought it would change overnight, but it didn’t, it remains the same. I have to see a doctor, once a come back to Vildorwick, something must happen to my eyes. Although my eyes were perfectly fine, my vision were still clear, I don’t feel any headache, or what, I was observing myself, it’s completely fine, still I have to seek professional advice for this. “I will find time to come back here, don’t worry, I’ll let you know, if our project launch, I’ll be sure inviting everyone of you, so please be healthy, especially you,” I held Carmela’s hand, she’s the one who warned me, three days ago, she must
“What now?” a man said, as acknowledgement of the presence of a pack member, “What now? I’m kind of stress right now, I don’t want to add anything on my glass now,” “They already met,” the pack member said. The man immediately looked at him, trying to see if he was being pranked or what, but he shown no sign of playing, he grin, “Then, we have to start working now, the end is coming,” “No,” the man looked at him, “What do you mean?” “The prophecy said that one remarkably opponent will appear and hinder the destiny, that someone will try to break what is bound to happen,” The pack member forehead creased, “What? when will that happen?” He looked at the member, “No one knows.” The pack member shrugged, “Alright, then, let’s just wait, anyway, I have to go, Malina informed me that a certain village was in danger,” He immediately exited the room and drove his car, he can just transform into his wolf, but he thought it would be a waste to mess his newly bought polo dress. “How craz
“Cel, are you okay?” I came back from a reverie when I felt someone tap my shoulder, I nodded before sitting back at my table, I still feel the pain in my chest, but not like the other night. It’s been two days after that night, but there is still some residual pain in my chest every time I’m breathing; I know it was not a dream, my book was in my bed, my unfinished glass of milk was still there, where I put it, even my clothes were the same after I woke up. Fearing that it might be something serious, I went to see a doctor, but they saw nothing, and that made it so frustrating, people kept on saying that I should just rest, but I can’t, I mean, I rest up, I did what they advise me to do, but it’s not working, the pain won’t go away. I tried to focus on my work; Sy had to go back abroad for some important matters, and we even had dinner before her flight, my supervisor was offering me to take a week of a break since they feel that I’m not alright and politely took it down. I feel a
That’s a dream, that’s a dream, that’s a dream. I keep muttering these to myself, as if, I’m chanting a spell. What the hell was that? Did I see things right, or I’m just hallucinating? No, that’s not possible, I’m fucking wide awake, that’s real. Oh my god, what did I witness? I’m still standing outside the building, the lights were dimmed, since it’s past the office hours, so I don’t think there would be any soul, except for the guards. I tried to catch my breath again, I halt when I saw Hunter, casually walking on the opposite side of the road. I don’t know what gotten into me, my feet automatically followed him. He stopped two blocks away from the company, and enter a shop, a pet shop to be exact, my brow furrowed, trying to figure out why he went there, he lasted inside for a couple of minutes, he went out, with a rabbit on his arm. He starts to walk again, and I followed him, I made sure I have enough distance to him, I cant risk my safety, I don’t know, I just want to know
“Where are you taking me?! Let me go, you monster!” I was trying to get out of Hunter’s tight grip, the employees jaw drop upon seeing Hunter with me, and it’s fucking annoying, how I see in their eyes, forming a rumor, and I know, it’s going to be a dirty one.I didn’t heard any single word from Hunter, after I told him what I think he was, he gone ballistic, and instantly grabbed me to whenever he thinks of.“I said, let me go! Are you deaf! Let me fucking go!” but that just tighten his grip on me, my wrist started to get numb, I thought we were going to his car, since we’re on the parking area, but my eyes instantly twirled, as my vision starts to become blurry, and the wind slaps on my cheeks.In just a snap, I’m standing in the middle of the woods I wasn’t a familiar with. I should be afraid right now, but curiosity and excitement filled my chest. This is not the usual Hunter I’ve been seeing in the office. His familiar eerie aura, golden eyes, and his intoxicating scent was a
