Unnatural: The Wildfire Chapter 22
"It's called the Abyss. Common amongst gifted with mind related abilities, it is a state in which the individual is able to use his/her gift at frighteningly optimal levels and for a long stretch without stopping. The downside of being in this state is the temporary loss of emotion, conscience and in the worst case, lack of recognition of loved ones. A Gifted in the abyss may attack loved ones the same way as he would an enemy."Except from "The Gifted Mind" by Irish vampire scientist Dr Alice Kerry. _____________________________________________ALLY’s POVI'd never truly believed the stories about Aiden Thorne. I didn't even believe him when he'd said he was a monster. But right now, I completely understood what they'd seen that had made even the fiercest men cower at the mere mention of his name. He didn't look any different. Even bathed in blood, his fascinating blue-gray eyes now a swirling black, he was still the most gorgeous man I'd ever laid eyes on. Vampirism definitely h

"I spoke with Dr Kerry. She would like a word with you. For research.""On what?""She would like to study your abilities and what your mind looks like in the abyss. You are the only telekinetic who has been in that state repeatedly." "And what did you tell her, Tamara?""That she'd be dead the instant you enter that state. Since you returned, you have religiously tried not to use that part of your ability. I will not let you use it unless you have no other choice.""I am not worth your protection.""You are my blood. Blood protects blood. No matter the cost."Conversation between Tamara Thorne and Aiden Thorne, the year 2016. ______________________________________________Tamara’s POVLost.Another beautiful soul stolen from the world. Another untimely exit. It still feels like a dream. It'd been a week since Makayla's life was cut short and today was her funeral. Aiden had been missing since that day when he'd left an unconscious Laila in my custody, blood all over his clothes

"It's a he, Kara.""Who?""The owner of the hands that hold on to me in my dreams.""How do you know that it's a boy for sure?""I can feel his despair, his sadness. His loneliness. His ache. I don't know how but it's a him.""And what does he want? Is he trying to harm you? Does he say anything""No. He doesn't say a word. He doesn't need to because I can hear his thoughts. He wants me to save him."Ally (15) to Kara (18)______________________________________________ALLY’s POV I walked deeper and deeper into the woods, careful not to step on the floor length white lace dress that had been a gift from Dahlia. The letter was tightly squeezed in my hand and I could hear my own heartbeat accelerating as I neared my target, his scent faint in the cool afternoon breeze. Tamara had promised to stay far but not too far away that she couldn't come to my aid if I sent a distress call with my phone, even though my instinct told me that it wasn't necessary. We'd agreed that she s

"Like many old supernaturals, Ally, there are some Krionas, the really old ones, who eschew modern technology.""How do you communicate with them?""It's called a fire message. A few words are written with the sender's blood on a plain sheet of paper, addressing it to the receiver. The paper is then set on fire. If the recipient wishes to reply the message, the same procedure is used." Conversation between Ally and Dahlia, the day of the town festival in Idris. _________________________________________________________ALLY’s POVI thought I would be okay with walking away from him. I was sure it was the only way to keep moving. That it was what would be best for the both of us. That not seeing those cerulean eyes would make me concentrate on the matter at hand. How wrong I was. The drive to the Gomez pack in Labrador was a two-day journey and we'd stopped in a motel to sleep and continued the next morning, the entire journey silent on my path as I tried to piece together all that I

Of all the supernaturals, the Krionas are the smallest, most cherished group and yet have the shortest life span, the strength of their Sight a gift that while it worked less often than not was a treasure to the rest of the world. To hurt a Kriona is sacrilege. Excerpt from "The Age of Krionas" by Mariah Mien (Kriona, Author.)_________________________________________________________ALLY’s POV"That girl absolutely adores you. It would have taken me hours to get her to sleep, but just one story from you and she's out like a lamp." Aunt Marie grumbled and I chuckled as I placed Mia on the bed. I glanced at the view from the bedroom window before closing the curtains and following her downstairs to the kitchen "You should give her some credit, Aunt, she was up at night watching Disney with me." "Another thing she wouldn't have done were you not around. Just a night here and you're already a bad influence, Ally." She chided and I gave her a lopsided grin, helping myself to an apple.
Unnatural: The Wildfire Chapter 27
ALLYCaleb hid the bodies behind a boulder before we marched into the house to see a girl, looking no older than I am trembling in fear. From the look of horror on her face, she'd heard the little noise outside. "Please don't hurt me. I'm just the one who comes here to attend to her and stuff, please, please- Don't kill me." she blubbered, trying to reach for a knife on the wooden table beside her, but our pointed looks told her she was outnumbered and she fell to the ground, still pleading. Caleb knelt beside her, caressing her hair softly as her sobs turned into sniffles. He whispered "There, there. She-", pointing to me "won't hurt you if you cooperate. Alright?" The girl nodded slowly and when she saw me grin, nearly coiled into herself. Caleb chuckled darkly and I scoffed. Yeah, be scared of the big bad Allyson, girlie. He looked at her right wrist and saw a half moon mark there. The Gomez Pack symbol. The girl was a wolf, alright. "What's your name?" Caleb asked her as he

"It's been years of searching, Aiden. How do you know she truly exists?""I'd have thought she was dead, a ghost come alive to haunt me if I didn't have this conviction that she was alive somewhere, out there. I felt the pull to come back here, home to face the ghosts of my past, Mara. Because of her. And she has given me something that I never thought I'd find after so long in the dark. Purpose."Tamara Thorne and Aiden Thorne (2015)_________________________________________________________Tamara’s POVIf I could say I missed her, then I didn't want to think about how Aiden was taking her absence. It'd been two days since she left and yet it felt like years. We were, or better still, I was in Idris, because I hadn't seen Aiden since she left. I let him be because he needed time alone, though I had no idea for how long. When I'd asked where he was going, he'd said nothing, allowing me to wrap him a hug, which said a lot about the amount of pain he was in. I knew he still blamed h

"How would describe my nephew?" "In one word, Cold. It's no wonder that they call him Frost."Sub-councilor Gaia to Jacob Thorne (2016)_________________________________________________________Tamara’s POVFortunately, I was able to trace Aiden to Mondale, three towns away from Idris. Thanking the heavens that he'd chosen to not go into complete hiding, as he often did, getting a witch to cloak himself whenever he wanted to disappear, I drove past the welcome sign, my face donned with sunglasses. I hated sunlight. Sue me.Unlike Idris, where finding a person would take longer, Mondale was a small town and my hunch told me to start my search from cafes and restaurants, because unluckily for my cousin, his face wasn't the type to forget. Except he'd compelled them to forget which would make finding him a whole lot harder. Parking out in front of the first cafe in my sights, I saw him. Looking out the see through glass windows, his gaze intent, he made no move to stand, even though
