Amity X Luz Novels & Stories

Amy Cross stood before a triptych of mirrors, her silhouette draped in a gown made of crushed pearls and moonlight. "The hem is a fraction too long," Lydia remarked, her voice cold as she watched the tailor tremble. "If I trip at the Solstice Gala, I’ll have your hands." "Amy." Vane, her bodyguard and shadow, stepped into the suite. He didn’t wait for permission. He held his phone out like a weapon. "The World Pack News. It’s live." Amy snatched the device. Her eyes scanned the grainy photo of Lucien and the mystery woman. The betrayal didn't hurt—Amy didn't believe in heartbreaks—but the insult felt like a slap in the face.

Lais, who had followed Marcus to the bathroom door, gritted her teeth as she saw what those bastards were doing there. -Damn them," she whispered through her teeth with a fury burning inside her. And as time is the vampire's friend, lightning and thunder crashed in the sky, and such was the intensity that not only scared many people but also caused the destruction of some power poles which ended up in a blackout in the city. When the lights went out in the hall the euphoria overcame many, after all in the darkness everything is more exciting. But a generator soon did its job by turning everything back on, including the music, which was in a rock remix on the beats of a funk. And in this time

I set the photo on fire with a lighter, and I watched in silence as it turned to ash. ... In the days that followed, I kept my tears and tantrums to myself. Slowly but surely, I let out the news and proof of my dad ditching his first love. Seeing him run around like a headless chicken gave me a twisted sense of satisfaction. By the time I left Cascade City, Rebecca and Nash's world had crumbled. The day before I took off, Calvin showed up at the Smiths'. "Heard you're heading to Zephyr City," he said, his voice so flat I could not read him.

I felt rushed of coldness running through me, it made me reach for Walter as he wrapped me in his arm, rubbing my shoulder and giving me the warmth that I needed. "I need to ask my elders, this is way beyond my knowledge." She got up and reached above her kitchen cabinets, and retrieved some candles, then she closes all the shades and curtains making the room dimmer for her needs. Walter and I sat in silence in front of her as she does her thing, minutes went by as she communicates with her elders then the candles unexpectedly are blown out by a gust of wind, darkness surrounds us immediately. Walter grabbed my hand immediately, assuring me that I was safe, that he was next to me.

I look over to Mary who is trying to shake her head in disapproval but I can see her shoulders move as she holds back her laughter. I sit down, eat my breakfast, and wait til they both calm down. Once they do, I tell them all about meeting Serena last night. Liam is very shocked but Mary seems unfazed. Liam turns and asks for more clarification. “You mean glowed. Like a light bulb glowed”. Jace surges forward. “Don’t you DARE compare my amazing mate to houseware. She glows like an angel would. Like the moon does”. Liam starts laughing at the comparison and how Jace is talking gently about his mate. Normally he is just threatening everyone.

Lily eased up as she looked from each face. "My name is Willow, I'm a Light Witch." The dark skinned woman introduced herself, gesturing to Dante, "You know Dante already. The Hunter is Amira, and the Alpha is Aiden. The woman beside Zalakai is Rayleigh, she's an Exorcist." Willow introduced the group. "Amira and Rayleigh belong to the same organization, they just cover different fields of work." Dante filled them in. Lily pressed her hand to her forehead as she tried to process everything.

Charisa asked silently. The girl whom had rabbit teeth saw her sister-in-law's face several times, but several times Charisa cancelled her words line, she tried to compose on her bare head. Charisa was afraid that her sister-in-law would think bad something to him, especially since he was still a stranger for herself. "Do you want to say something to me?" Asked Amanda, and she was waiting for the red light on the highway. "Um, nothing." Charisa chose silent. "Well, if you don't want to tell..." said Amanda to Charisa, the woman smiled beautifully, and drove back to the car again.

"Shut up! Henry's a liar! "He only wrote this stuff to disgust me! I'm perfectly healthy right now! There's no way I have AIDS!" But the next second, another student punched her straight to the ground. "And when you were doing all those disgusting things to him, what did you think you were being? "Besides, don't you know HIV has different incubation periods depending on the person?" At last, Celia broke down completely. She clutched her head and sobbed uncontrollably. The livestream continued. The viewer count kept climbing higher and higher.

MAYA: Are you SURE you’re okay? I can skip my shift & come over I typed, deleted, typed again. ME: I’m okay. Just tired. If you skip work, your boss will combust 😅 Don’t get fired because of me Three dots. Disappear. Return. MAYA: Ugh fine BUT if you faint in the middle of the bookstore I’m going to be sooo offended I snorted. ME: Promise I won’t faint at work If it happens, I’ll pick somewhere more dramatic 😌

However, the longer I spoke with them and the more people I spoke to, I realized they either didn't see it, or they weren't going to feed into the bullshit of media tales. Even if it were true. "Yes. Thought I would get some rest in before my flight in a few hours. Just you home?" "I don't know. I just got in myself. Knew it was your last day so I took off early, swung by to feed missy and headed here." Amari's cat Missy is a one eyed, three-legged fur ball that she obtained from Amy's veterinary clinic, but Amari loves her, so we don't say anything. "You mind if I ask you something?" Amari asks while walking into the kitchen.
