Euphenia slowly crept out of the bed without waking Yihan up. She felt soreness all over her body yet her mind was at peace. She slowly reached for the night robe and wore it. Taking her bracelet and slowly came out onto the balcony. She touched it and made a connection with Rhain. As soon as the connection was established as Euphenia saw that Rhain is a somewhere desolate place, weak and struggling to keep up. His clothes were blood-soaked with a severe bite wound on his left neck. Euphenia aghast at Rhain’s condition asked,“What the hell happened to you?”Rhain, panting with a quivering voice spoke, “Help me. Please. I will die at this rate. I need blood.”Euphenia, “ Now?! Alright, where are you?”Before Rhain could answer her, he collapsed due to blood loss, and the connection was swapped abruptly. The bracelet connection works through the energy of one’s consciousness and life force as it was made by binding their blood. So when Rhain collapsed as his life force was withering aw
The giant oak tree stood at the edge of the meadow. Two children; a girl and a boy, were playing under its cool shadow. The boy had scar marks on his wrists and ankles. The marks are like of being chained up. The little girl curiously asked him,“Are you hurt?”The boy, “Not really. These help me not to hurt anyone.”The girl, “You hurt anyone then?”The boy remained silent and did not answer. He has overgrown hairs all over his body. It looked more like fur. For a seven-year-old kid having this unusual appearance was something challenging. Every other child in that village gets irked by his unusualness and avoids him, except this little girl. The boy’s loneliness disappeared the day this little girl arrived in the village. Being a half-werewolf comes with its own setbacks. Especially for a kid. The werewolf traits are unstable and fickle. It can get triggered at any moment with the slightest emotional nudge during the full moon days of the month. It starts from a week before the full
The heavenly realm erupted in days-long celebrations. The supreme god Uraos had conceived twin daughters. For a long time, he had desired for an heir to take over the responsibility of the Heavenly Realm. For that, he came down from his heavenly abode and spent years in mediation and cultivation to conceive his divine child on a secluded mysterious island on earth. As the supreme divinity, he coalesced his virtues and powers into one entity. He wanted his successor to have no vices or weaknesses. So he poured all his divinity into it to make sure there was no negativity or evilness in it. The energy pool condensed into a physical culmination and took the form of a baby girl. The baby had perfect delicate features and the surroundings glowed in a powerful aura. But, within a few seconds of her birth, an unknown energy surge happened just where she lay, in the color of black smoke. The energy then condensed into another physical form of a baby girl just like the first one. As soon as the
King Treznor woke up in the middle of the night as his squire knocked on his bedroom chamber door. He put on his robes and ordered, “Come in.” Squire, “Your Majesty! Something bad happened.” Treznor, “Tell me what is it.” Squire, “The Chamber of the Ancients has been breached. The guards are dead. The Book is missing.” Treznor was shocked, “How is that even possible?! It was secured for centuries.” He at once left for with his squire. The Chambers of the Ancients is located deep within the mountains of Luneveria, about a couple of miles away from the royal palaces. A deep forest separates the royal palace and the mountains. King Treznor, his squire, and a few royal guards drove across it toward the mountain area. As they reached the mountain hold the scene was chaotic. Royal personnel was scattered all over. Medics were called to treat the wounded. Several werewolves were lying dead. Treznor, “Who could have done this?!” Squire, “ The vampires, Your Majesty?” At that moment th
Nezeira lay unconscious among the rocks and bushes alongside the mountain road. It was dark around the break of dawn. She has sustained serious injuries all over her body which a slowly healing up; the perks of being a vampire. The explosion was rather a powerful one magnified with magic perhaps to enhance the damaging prowess. The explosion made Nezeira fly several feet into the air before throwing her off violently into the wilderness. Nezeira came back to her senses as thin steaks of sunlight hit her eyes at the break of the dawn. As she tried to move she felt the pain in her limbs with patches of blood here and there. Somehow she managed to sit up. Her right temple had dried blood indicating it was injured as well and now all healed up. She sat for a few minutes in silence before gathering her superhuman senses to figure out where she was. Her ear twitched and caught up with all sorts of sounds of the forest; animals, chirping birds, insects, and even the rustling of the trees. S
The secretary hurriedly ran through the corridor of the floor building, before pushing the door of the practice hall open. Yihan was rehearsing choreography for his upcoming performance at a music event with his dance crew. The secretary approached him and whispered something in Yihan’s ears. He instantly stopped with a shocked look on his face. “All projects are postponed until further notice”, he turned around and announced. The group had frustrated looks on their face but they didn’t dare speak anything against him. Yihan grabbed his jacket and ran with his secretary tailing behind him. Reaching his office he picked up his bag and was about to leave when his secretary spoke, “Sir you didn’t change. You are in your gym suit.” Yihan cast an angry look at him and spoke gritting his teeth, “Call, Emmet, and tell him about me.” The secretary cowered in fear and replied, “Yes, sir at once.” Yihan, “Give me the car keys. You wrap things up in the office and go home. Wait for my call.
An elderly councilman sprinted through the magnificent halls of the royal palace of Illusontis. The royal palace boasts of dreamy architecture, an amalgamation of various styles, from deco to nouveau. The entire palace was wrapped in a natural effect with trees and small animals roaming here and there. It is as if an enchanted forest has been transformed into a palace. Magic was everywhere.Queen Niamh was busy with her council in the throne room. The councilman came running and stopped in front of the grand table. Niamh understood the urgency and ordered,“Everyone!

“Maya!” A vampire woman called out. She has been out in the forest hunting with her daughter who is approaching her adolescence. Being a dhampir she has to struggle during her growing years fighting the powerful thirst for human blood. But as she crossed the threshold of adolescence her thirst gradually came into control and her mother started taking her out to hunt animals. As a child, she was monitored strictly from not going feral and gorging on human blood. The vampire woman suddenly heard a snarling noise from a distance and the next moment her vampiric senses became alert, especially her olfactory sense. Her red eyes constricted and fixed in a certain direction. the next moment the snarling noise started to become more and more fierce and along with it there was a sound similar to a scuffle. The vampire woman dashed in her supersonic speed towards the commotion following the sound. The scene in which she finally arrived shocked her to the core. Maya was snarling with her fang
