"IS Chloe okay?" a calm voice startled her. She whipped her head towards the owner of the voice and sighed in relief when she saw that it was only Kieran.His eyes were still blindfolded with a neat white cloth. His brown naturally curled hair was all over as if he hadn't combed it correctly. He was wearing his night clothes: white long sleeved coat tied at his waist, a white undershirt and comfortable white pants."Màh," Chloe said. "Can't sleep?"Kieran walked slowly but surely towards the entrance of the pavilion and sat not far from her. "The earth seems restless. I came to relieve it from its burden."Chloe raised her eyebrows as she stared at him. She had never talked to Kieran alone like this before. He was silent most of the time and tend to hang at the back, listening. He only spoke when somebody would ask his opinion or when he had to speak up. He only followed Lucian and he never did anything that could catch attention from the others. Sometimes, C

THE cold wind seemed to suffocate him. There were emotions in his heart that he couldn't understand where it came from. He was standing right in the middle of the vast green land, the mountainous horizon looming ahead and the Dark Forest at his both sides.He looked up and his dark green eyes, the eyes that he hated so much, found the blue cloudless sky. The sun was shining brightly but he couldn't feel its heat. Not on his tanned skin. He closed his eyes and breathe in the cold wind until his lungs ached. He slowly let the air out and looked back to the ground.If only he didn't. He stumbled back in horror until he lost his balance and fall to his rear. His dark green eyes were dilated and he couldn't breathe once again.Stones were carefully placed everywhere as if they were afraid they would never see the bodies on where they buried their loved ones. The vast land of graves. The vast sign of where that heartbreaking death toll happened. The vast land where many of whom they loved la

CHLOE knew that there was something wrong about the people around them as they stepped inside the Mineria Town. There were children and some of them were running around, playing. But their eyes seemed dull.There were adults walking around but their eyes were lifeless. Nevertheless, their movements were just normal. As if they were living their normal night.Chloe looked further into them with her eyes. They looked like a normal Demetri but they had Auræ around them. There were black crescent tattoo on their cheeks, but the style differed from the ones the Black Crescent members had.They were strolling for a little while but they haven't seen a single Black Crescent member or anything weird other than the lifeless people surrounding them.Neptos put a hand on her shoulder. She looked up at him and saw him glancing at her with apprehending look. "Relax."Chloe nodded and flicked her hair that was tied in a ponytail. They paused and quickly went to the n

PRINCE Ciaran knew there's something off with the woman before them. She was not the real thing, he knew that. But he couldn't recognize what that was."You're Mai Lou, the spider elf," Neptos declared.A snort was heard from Neptos' side and all eyes turned to the young brunette who was trying to hold back her laughter. "A spider elf?"Mai Lou frowned at her. "What's wrong about that?" she asked, curiosity laced in her voice.Chloe couldn't help herself but laugh. Theo and Neptos stared at her in disbelief while Ciaran was amused by her reaction. No one would dare laugh in front of their enemy, when a fight could ensue anytime.Mai flipped her long raven hair and smirked at Chloe. "I am the only one left in my kind."They felt the wind pick up. Chloe and the others, even Mai and her shadows, had to brace themselves from getting thrown put somewhere. When the wind slowed down, they opened their eyes. Chloe's young face split into a large grin.

LUCIAN was already standing outside of the house when Chloe, Neptos and Jucel arrived in  the house they shared in Graire Province. As soon as he saw the three, he immediately went to rant about Chloe's safety.Barbie and the others went out of the house and the short woman jumped beside Lucian, catching the bottom of his ear."Ow! What are you-- ow, that hurts!" Lucian shouted. Because Barbie was a lot smaller than Lucian, the latter had to bend his body to the side or else his ear will be tear off his head.Barbie proceeded to pull him inside the house. "Come here, you idiot. You're still not dressed up!""Dressed for what?" Chloe asked while watching Barbie dragging Lucian away from them. Indeed, Barbie Lewelyn was dressed in her usual rugged clothes while the remaining boys were dressed up in pants and shirt.Jared Dale was hanging at the back, his hands tucked inside his jeans' front pockets. He was not looking at them, just staring at the now
