Luxiana Sommeris

What he said made my heart skip a beat. It wasn’t the right moment—not now, not like this—but somehow, he managed to affect me that way.

I kept my eyes locked on him, willing him to fight, to resist. And I knew he was trying. But Lilith’s hold on him was relentless, weaving through his mind like invisible chains, forcing him to look away from me.

Desperation clawed at my chest. I reached for him, cupping his face between my hands, determined to make him see me, to remind him of who he was. But the moment my skin touched his, he let out a sharp hiss, recoiling as if burned.

“Get away from me, human,” Damien spat through gritted teeth, his voice laced with venom. His eyes—once filled with warmth, mischief, and something that felt like love—now burned with fury and something far worse: disgust.

I felt my breath hitch. My lips trembled as I whispered, “D-Damien…” My voice nearly broke. “Please, don’t listen to her. Whatever your queen is trying to make you do, don’t—”

    Luxiana SommerisI clenched my fists so tightly that my nails bit into my palms, sharp enough to leave crescent-shaped marks on my skin. I couldn’t allow this. I wouldn’t. He had already taken too much from me—I would not let him take anything else. I would fight.No matter what it cost me, no matter how much pain I had to endure, I would fight until there was nothing left of him but a memory lost to the wind. And then, through the haze of exhaustion and the suffocating weight of everything closing in on me, I heard it.A voice. Soft yet steady, familiar in a way that made my chest tighten and my heart ache. A voice I would recognize anywhere, no matter how shattered the world around me had become.“Xiana…” The sound of my name, spoken in that tone, reached me like a lifeline. Even through the chaos, even through the darkness, it was enough. Enough to remind me that I was still here. Still breathing. Still standing.“Fuck, Xiana, are you okay?” I heard Damien's voice again, sharper

    Luxiana SommerisI blinked rapidly, my heart slamming against my ribs. “Date?” The word felt wrong, foreign on my tongue. My gaze darted between him and myself before I lifted a trembling hand, pointing at both of us. “Are we also… dating in this—this realm?”He gave me a long, unreadable look before sighing as if I were being plodding today. He gave me a strange look, “Uh… as far as I remember, yes?” He reached into his pocket, pulled out his phone, and swiped at the screen. Then, with an almost lazy flick of his wrist, he turned it toward me.My breath hitched. There, on his phone, was a picture of Damien and me. Together. In the same bed.I stood there, unmoving, as a cold sensation slithered through my veins. My stomach twisted violently, nausea rising as my mind fought to process what I was seeing.No. No, this wasn’t real. This couldn’t be real. I took a shaky step back, pulse roaring in my ears, drowning out everything else. The café, the street outside, the distant hum of l

    Luxiana Sommeris“Relax, it was just a dream.” Damien chuckled softly, his warm fingers brushing against my cheek soothingly. “Even you can still have dreams that feel so real.”I hesitated momentarily, biting my lower lip before whispering, “Is that so? Because in that dream, you were my boyfriend, and we were having the time of our lives. Grandma was there too.”His expression shifted, a flicker of understanding passing through his eyes. “That must have been difficult for you,” he murmured, his voice gentle yet firm. “But believe me, it was only a dream—a false awakening. Those happen for many reasons, but they’re usually caused by stress.”Hearing his explanation made it easier to breathe, but a heavy sigh still escaped my lips. I gave a small nod, my voice barely above a whisper. “I’m sorry… I-I’ve just been through a lot. Am I overreacting to everything?”Damien shook his head without hesitation. “No, you’re reacting exactly how anyone would. Stop overthinking it, alright?”I ex

    Luxiana SommerisI went home carrying the picture book that the strange boy had left on my desk. It was about angels and demons.His words lingered in my mind, clinging to me like a shadow I couldn’t escape. Something was unsettling about them, sending a quiet shiver down my spine.When I arrived home, I prepared my dinner before taking a bath. The book never left my side. I carried it to my bedroom, curiosity tugging at me, urging me to see what lay within its pages.My eyes landed on the cover. It looked ordinary—aged, perhaps a little worn, but nothing unusual. I flipped through the pages, skimming over illustrations of angels and demons, their worlds coexisting in an unnatural harmony.At first, everything seemed straightforward. The book explains their differences, their roles, and their nature. But then, my fingers stilled on a particular page—one that made my heart skip a beat.An angel and a demon had fallen in love. But their love was forbidden. They were being torn apart, t

    Luxiana SommerisI swallowed, glancing back up at the treehouses with a newfound sense of understanding. It made sense now—why this place felt so eerily silent, why the air around it carried an almost heavy stillness. The higher the houses sat, the more isolated they became, removed from everything below. If someone wanted to disappear from the world, this was the perfect place to do it.“I see,” I murmured. “Now it makes sense why I was brought here.”Damien gave a slow nod before stopping, tilting his head back to look up toward the highest treehouse. “He’s up there,” he said, jerking his chin toward it. “Let’s go.”I turned to him, blinking in slight confusion. “Wait—are we using our powers to go up there?”Damien’s lips curled into an almost mischievous smile. “We can, but this time no,” he said simply. “We’re flying.”Before I could ask what he meant, I heard the faintest rustle of air. Then, right before my eyes, a pair of magnificent wings unfurled from his back, stretching wi

    Luxiana SommerisRay stiffened at Damien’s words, his jaw clenching. “They’re not hunting me. Walkers can’t come here.” His voice was sharp and irritated, but something else was underneath—hesitation, uncertainty.Damien, however, didn’t falter. His expression remained grim as he took a step closer. “Yes, they are.” Without warning, he grabbed Ray’s shoulder and spun him around, his fingers digging into his skin.That’s when I saw it, the mark. Dark, swirling like smoke trapped beneath his skin, pulsing with an eerie glow on his bare back. It stood out starkly against Ray’s skin, it was a sinister mark. One that sent a shiver down my spine.My breath hitched as I turned my wide eyes to Damien. Was he saying that I had the power to save someone teetering on the edge of death? That I, a mere oneiromancer, could interfere with something as final as the Walkers’ claim?Damien’s voice was steady, unwavering. “Do you believe me now?” His golden eyes burned into mine. “This mark means they’r

    Luxiana Sommeris“Ray! Snap out of it, damn it!” Damien’s furious voice cut through the chaos, raw with frustration. He had been yelling at Ray for what felt like forever, but there was no response—no flicker of recognition in his blank stare. Ever since we had pulled him back from the depths of his troubled mind, he had been like this, trapped in the lingering grip of those cursed walkers.We had been fighting relentlessly, doing everything in our power to cut down the Dream Walkers before even one of them could escape and report back to Morpheus. But more than that, we needed to stop them from draining Ray’s soul before it was too late.“Can you purify him now?” Damien demanded, summoning a roaring flame in his palm. The heat licked at the air between us, casting flickering shadows over his sharp features.I gave him a firm nod. “I can...watch over me—I’ll hold onto Ray this time while I purify him.”Without hesitation, Damien moved closer, ensuring I was fully within reach befor

    Luxiana SommerisThe walkers who had tried to kill him vanished into thin air, their presence dissipating as if they had never existed. My knees buckled beneath me, and I collapsed onto the ground, my entire body trembling from exhaustion. A sharp breath left my lips as I struggled to understand what had just happened.Had I pushed myself too far? That light—what was it? It had burst from my mouth like a force beyond my control. My powers… I could feel them slipping away, draining from my body like sand slipping through my fingers.Before me, Ray lay unconscious, his face peaceful yet eerily still. The world tilted, and darkness consumed me before I could process anything further.When I finally stirred, a warm, gentle touch glided through my hair. My lashes fluttered as I adjusted to the soft glow of light filtering into my vision. Blinking slowly, I took in the sight before me—Damien.He gazed at me with quiet patience, his expression calm, as if he had been waiting for this moment

    AntonAt first, she couldn’t bring herself to meet my eyes. She stared down, her fingers trembling slightly against mine. But after a long, weighted pause, she finally smiled — a soft, bittersweet curve of her lips — and tightened her grip on my hands.“I have feelings for you,” she whispered, her voice barely above the breeze, “but it wasn’t allowed in the faction...so I forced myself to forget.”She gave a short, breathy laugh that sounded like she was trying to make light of something that hurt far too much.“I slept with others in their dreams,” she admitted, her eyes clouding with memories, “but no matter what I did, I couldn’t forget you. I couldn’t forget the way we opened up to each other so easily... the way we were so gentle, yet so passionate together.”I swallowed hard, feeling the familiar ache rise in my chest, and found myself confessing before I could stop myself.“I felt the same,” I said, my voice thick. “I tried...I slept with others, too, but it never worked.

    Luxiana Sommeris“My walkers… they can’t fully possess the people in either the waking world or the dream realm—what did you do?” Morpheus screamed, his voice sharp and accusing, echoing like a crack of thunder through the heavy air, forcing me to leave Damien’s side and step forward until I stood directly in front of him, unflinching.“What I did,” I began, my breath shaky but my voice steady, “was use everything I am as an Oneiromancer to stop whatever it is you’re trying to tip out of balance.” I exhaled sharply, the pressure of it all catching up to me. “You really think I came all this way just to fight you without a reason, don’t you?”“We know what you've been doing,” I continued, my fists clenched so tight my nails dug into my palms, “I swear I won’t let you get away with it.”“Maybe you escaped the consequences before—I don’t know how or why—but this time, I’m here to make sure it ends.” “I might be the last of my kind,” I said with a quiet strength that came from something

    Anton“Y-You saw it? B-But how?” I asked, my voice almost breaking.“It doesn’t matter how. I want to see it and take it from you, so let’s go back, okay?” Mira said as she held my hands.“O-Okay,” I replied, the word trembling from my lips, but it was enough to make them both smile, and for a moment, that warmth was all I could feel.“There’s still time,” Mira said again with the authority of someone who had walked through too many endings to be afraid of one more. “But we have to act now. Morpheus still has his grip on you, and if we wait, he’ll pull you too deep—we might never reach you again.”I looked at them—at Luxiana’s steady eyes and Mira’s unshakable calm—and for the first time in what felt like forever, I let myself believe that maybe I wasn’t lost after all. That the darkness hadn’t consumed everything, that the flicker of light I thought was long gone had survived because they had come before the dream collapsed.“I don’t know if I’m strong enough,” I whispered, the trut

    Luxiana Sommeris“How can we reach him?” Mira asked, her voice low but laced with worry, the concern lingering in her eyes despite her valiant effort to mask it.A sudden surge of hope rose within me, a warmth that spread through my chest like sunlight breaking through storm clouds. I was just about to tell her what to do, to explain the next step, when a sound tore through the stillness—a scream, raw and anguished, that shattered the moment.Damien was down on one knee, his flames sputtering like a candle on the verge of going out, his breath ragged and uneven. Across from him stood Morpheus, towering and bloodied, yet crackling with the vicious energy of victory, his form coiled and ready to deliver the final strike. Time stretched unbearably thin in that instant, as if the world held its breath with me, one heartbeat, one second suspended in the space between what was and what could still be.“Damien! No!” The words ripped from my throat like a bolt of lightning, sharp and despe

    Luxiana SommerisFor a fleeting moment, I saw fear flicker across Morpheus’ face—a brief crack in his mask of arrogance—but he quickly smirked, recovering his composure. I had been told before that he never liked Damien, and now I understood why. It was the white flames. Something about them, something pure and ancient, unsettled him.“You’re making this even harder,” Morpheus sneered, rising slowly from where Damien had brought him to his knees. He dusted himself off as if the attack was nothing more than a minor inconvenience, but I could see the tightness around his eyes, the tremor in his voice. “Do you really think the two of you can be together?”Damien took a cautious step forward, eyes narrowed in disbelief. Clearly, he hadn’t expected Morpheus to recover so quickly—not after being consumed by white flames, the same flames that had once been powerful enough to destroy entire darkness.Despite Morpheus’s attempt to appear unshaken, I could tell the damage was real. He was hur

    Luxiana Sommeris“Where’s Anton? If you hurt him, I will end you.” I clenched my fists, which made him chuckle.He didn’t say anything, but he moved forward. I didn’t flinch—not when the shadow moved like a living creature, snarling without a mouth, nor when Morpheus hovered a little closer, like he was trying to study me, savor me, as if I were a guest of honor at some twisted performance he’d been rehearsing for centuries. My fists clenched at my sides, and though my heart thudded hard against my ribs, I refused to let him see fear. Not now. Not when I had come all this way.“What kind of show are you planning to put on this time?” I asked, my voice firm, even as the chill of his presence settled into my bones. “Another nightmare? Another illusion to trap me in?”He tilted his head, his expression between amusement and curiosity, like a child toying with a fragile toy, waiting to see how easily it would break.“Oh, this one’s going to be special,” he said softly, almost sweetly, as

    Luxiana SommerisUntil I reached a clearing—something that might once have been a beautiful place. A forest, frozen in twilight.The trees were twisted now, unmoving, but not dead. The air hung heavy with silence that pressed against my skin, sharp enough to hurt.And then I saw him. Anton stood at the center, his back to me. He was still—too still. His shoulders were stiff, his hands clenched into fists at his sides, and his head was tilted slightly, as if listening to something only he could hear.But I could feel the wrongness in the air. His energy wasn’t right. It vibrated dark and low, coiled and waiting like a snake beneath the surface.“Anton,” I said, almost tearing up, my voice piercing the silence like a blade. He didn’t move or answer.“Anton, I know you’re in there. I know what Morpheus is doing. But I also know you’re still fighting.” I called out again.A gentle but biting wind passed through the trees. When it stopped, it became extremely cold, so when Anton laughed, I

    Luxiana SommerisAfter drinking from the cool, rushing river, a wave of exhaustion washed over me so heavily that I decided to set up camp nearby, letting the gentle murmur of the water soothe my weary senses. As I sat alone beneath the twilight sky, the fire crackling softly beside me, my thoughts spiraled into a restless haze, each clinging to the next as I tried desperately to anchor myself in some semblance of calm.If Morpheus had taken Damien, I was certain I would have felt it—some thread between us tugging, snapping, crying out—but the silence was deafening. Could it be that those who took him were not of Morpheus’ kind at all? What if... the grim reapers had come for him instead?The thought struck me with a cold, paralyzing dread. Lying within the thin walls of my makeshift tent, I stared at the fabric ceiling, my heart pounding louder than the night sounds beyond. Damien could hold his own against nearly anyone, but when it came to the reapers... it was a different game e

    Luxiana SommerisAfter the incubus delivered his cryptic message, he vanished into thin air, leaving nothing but unsettling silence. I stood there, rooted in place, unsure of how to process what he had said—unsure of what I was supposed to feel.“For some reason… I don’t want to continue this journey anymore,” Damien murmured with a bitter laugh that held no real amusement. His voice pulled my attention upward, and I found him looking off into the distance, his expression tight with worry.“We don’t have that luxury, Damien,” I replied, my voice steady and resolute despite the turmoil churning inside me. “I have a responsibility to protect both the dream realm and the waking world. I’m the only one who can.”His eyes met mine then, dark and stormy with concern. “But going back there means risking your life,” he said, each word heavy with truth. “If Morpheus really wants you, he’ll find a way to take you. He’s done it before, and now… now he’s stronger, more prepared. You know that.”
