Tala Hill“Hey! Hey! One at a time. You are making me dizzy. All of you, just calm down,” Aunt Kyndra said to us.After she said the things that she said, the five of us started asking questions at the same time. Just what a vampire needs in a werewolf paradise. Aunt Kyndra stood up from sitting and stretched her body.“I am hungry,” she said suddenly before looking at the four men. “You, the four of you, go hunt some deer or a rabbit. Just whatever we can eat for lunch. And while you are at it, get some firewood,” she commanded. They were about to complain but Aunt Kyndra immediately raised her hand to silence them. “Hurry up!” she shouted.Chester shook his head and went out while Tyron followed, Ridge continued to complain but eventually went out as well.“I know you are letting us go so you and Tala can talk, but don't think that we already let you off the hook. You still have to answer our questions,” Shaun said before turning to me and smiled. “I will be back.” After saying that

Tala Hill Aunt Kyndra took me to the storage room of her house after the small meeting in her living room. I was about to talk to Shaun about what I heard him say earlier when Aunt Kyndra suddenly pulled me. I just followed her because the conversation with Shaun could wait. I know, it's not my priority for now.“So, what are we going to do here?” I asked Aunt Kyndra.“I will give you something,” she answered, opening a chest box and taking a rectangular box from it. She turned to me and held it out in front of me. “Here,” she handed it to me.I accepted it. “What is this?” I asked, confused. Trying to think of something. I did not recognize it. “It’s not yet my birthday,” I whispered.“Open it,” she ordered.I opened it. Inside the box was a white wooden wand, three emerald jewels embroidered on its side. “What! Y-you're giving me a wand? But I do not know how to use any spells,” I said.“Emerald. A symbol of loyalty, new beginnings, peace, and security. It's not mine to give, actua

Tala HillAfter a day's trip, we arrived in Shandong, the province where Roanoke Valdaz is. But we still have to climb the mountain that is in Jinan, the capital city of Shandong, before arriving at the very location of Roanoke. I was with Aunt Kyndra in the middle of the forest. For the time being, we left Shaun and the others in town to buy supplies we could use when climbing the mountain. Aunt Kyndra brought me here so she could start training me.Aunt Kyndra had been talking to me while we were walking into the forest but my attention was not on the other things. My mind was full of the conversation I had with Shaun yesterday. To this day, everything Shaun had said was still repeating in my mind. And each time, it always made me smile. Despite the fact that I still couldn't explain my feelings for him. The things he said to me still makes me smile.It felt so surreal, like a dream that never really happened. But it did. And I was happy that it happened. I really needed something t

Tala HillOne by one, we entered the house. The sun is high outside but it's still like night inside the house. But despite the lack of light, I still noticed the lack of household items. It was as if no one was living there. It seems that Aunt Kyndra was right when she said that Roanoke Valdaz lived here alone.“Man, I'd really hate it if I were a vampire. Imagine, my house has to be this dark and I can only go out every night,” said Cliff.“That's why it's a good thing I was born a werewolf. We're strong and fast, we can go out under the sun, and most of all we don't have to drink blood,” Tyron agreed.“Shut up, you two,” Ridge scolded them.“Unlike what you two think, being a vampire has its own perks,” said a familiar voice.Aunt Kyndra immediately raised her wand. “Illuminate,” she commanded and balls of light emerged, surrounding the whole house and lighting the house.I immediately saw the vampire we were looking for. He was leaning on the jamb of the open door, wearing only a b

Tala Hill“Tala!”It was a familiar voice that made me snap back to reality. I did not even notice that tears were already falling from my eyes. I slowly raised my face. I saw Shaun, his black eyes filled with worry. He was crouching down, protectively shielding me from the vampire that murdered my father. “A filthy mongrel protecting a witch, interesting.”I stared at Shaun carefully after hearing the vampire's words, blood dripping from Shaun’s forehead. There were also gashes from his arms. “S-Shaun.” I gasped. “You are bleeding!”I looked at Silvanus, only then did I notice the sword he was holding. Even if I did not examine the sword, I knew it was made of silver. I immediately turned to Shaun. I was immediately filled with intense concern for him. It's all my fault. If I hadn't just been stunned by the sight of the vampire, he surely wouldn't have been hurt like this just to protect me. “Please, don't black out on me again,” Shaun said with a smile“I-I'm sorry.”He held my han
