The sweet man I knew was no longer standing where he was. In front of me was a large beast from a child's nightmare. Sei had shifted, and he was absolutely livid."Venandi, bring Sei back right now!" Silas shouted at the creature, that was a couple of inches taller than him. The beast only growled at him, as if threatening him."You can't shift while angry! You'll kill us all!" Silas hissed, making the beast named Venandi growl again. Tired of waiting, it charged to Silas and slammed into him, throwing him against the wall. I gasped and quickly ran to Silas, who groaned as he tried to get up. "Are you okay?" I quickly asked him. Venandi looked at me with it's lifeless eyes and sniffed me. When it recognized me, it backed away and charged to the doors, smashing through them and bolting down the hall."What happened to Sei? Whats going on?" I asked in panic, helping Silas get up. He leaned against the wall, clutching in his stomach with clenched teeth. "Sei is gone, his hybrid took ove

"My goodness, you really do smell like Alexander. The twins had every reason to leave." The blonde demon ranted. He's been talking for a whole ten minutes, I felt like my ears were going to quit on me anytime soon. I was slumped on the bed and he was seated on the armchair across the bedroom, lazily flipping through the pages of a fitness magazine."You're very different from our usual pets. Alexander doesn't randomly feed on any human." He mumbled, his eyes slightly darkening. "Or are you here for another reason?"I turned my head to his direction, staring at his eyes as they turned a light purple. It was an impressive trick but it made me curious to know what he was doing. A change in eye colour in demons mean they are using one of their many powers. I wonder what purple does.Unable to contain my overflowing curiosity, I just had to ask. "What are you doing?"He kept his eyes on the magazine, not answering my question. I pursed my lips, still staring at him. I knew he was not answer

After Sei finished comforting me from the aftermath of the trainwreck of reality that hit me, I finally got enough strength to go freshen up in the bathroom while he spent some time by himself. Just like me, it was pretty clear that his mind was in shambles and he was probably waiting for Silas so they could discuss the problem.Silas did eventually return while I was still soaked in the large bathtub. I could hear his deep voice. It made me feel all sorts of things. Hearing him saying my name was the best part of all... Although I did not like it when he lost his temper. He seemed to do that a lot too."We need to comfort her." Sei said. I stepped out of the bathtub and wrapped a towel around my body, listening to their conversation. I had no doubt that they knew that I was listening but I didn't care. I needed to hear what Silas thought about this whole thing."What's wrong?" He asked softly, the sound of his footsteps heading towards the closet. "She think she will die.""We won't

It took only a couple of minutes for Sei to get me from the spot I was standing on outside. By then, the screaming had ceased but still kind of haunted my mind when I went to bed. I wondered what Alexander did to those girls and if they were even still alive. Silas groaned softly, turning his body to face mine . His arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me closer to his cold body. His skin just lightly glimmered in the dark, reflecting the gibbous moon that shone through the window. "Why aren't you sleeping?" He asked me softly, rubbing my hips soothingly.As much as I would like to keep what Sapphire said a secret, I learnt the pretty hard way that it wasn't going to end well."Sapphire said something to me that got me thinking." I whispered to him. "Was she drunk?" Silas asked me, slipping his hand underneath my shirt."Tipsy, I think. She said that there's a chance that Alexander may be my soulmate." I said quickly, closing my eyes tightly and bracing myself for the Silas bomb to

My stomach plummeted to the ground when Sofia excitedly announced that the remaining five contestants were about to fight to the death. My eyes darted between the twins and Alexander and my brows furrowed in worry. This was not going to end well at all."If the contestants wish, they may surrender in the middle of the match, meaning an automatic disqualification. The last one standing wins the crown." At that moment, the vampire leader, Valedria placed a black box on an empty space on a table and opened it. Gently, as if he were holding a fragile talisman, he pulled out a beautiful black crown. I stared at it in awe. I have never seen one such as that, it was absolutely stunning. My heart thumped loudly in my chest when he reached back into the box and pulled an identical one."For the new queen, should there be one." Valedria said, placing it carefully next to the other. I looked at the field, watching Alexander staring at the crowns with a large grin spread out on his face. The t
