Burn Like Mark On Skin Novels & Stories

I look down at my palm. There's a burn mark there—angry and red and blistering. The skin is peeling slightly at the edges. The flame must have been touching my skin while I was flickering the lighter. I stare at it, my mind trying to process this information. When did that happen? More importantly... Why didn't it hurt? I felt nothing. Not even warmth. Just... nothing. "Cade, talk to me!" Alex is really panicking now, his voice pitched higher than normal. His hands are shaking as he examines the burn. "This is a second-degree burn at least. We need to get you to—"

Yawning tiredly, I got off the bed, walking over to the air conditioner to see that it's still working. "Huh? That's strange." I muttered confusedly, staring around the room. Returning back to bed, I decided to discard the covers, hoping it'd make things better, but it didn't. I felt hotter by the minute, and just when I didn't think it could get worse, I felt a burning sensation on the top back of my left shoulder, causing me to rush to the bathroom, pulling down my nightie slightly as I cried out in pain. It felt like fire laced with ice coursing through my veins, burning through my skin. When the torture finally stopped, I gasped. A glowing symbol was carved into my skin—not cut, not brui

His breath hitched slightly and I pulled my damp shirt aside exposing my chest to him. His eyes darkened as he took in my lacy bra but I didn’t care, I turned my back so he could see it. The mark. Three deep slashes carved across my back. Permanent marks cursed into my skin. I felt his gaze on it and he stepped closer. “What…” he started and then stopped. His breath caught and I knew he saw it clearly now and recognized it. “It doesn’t heal,” I said quietly. “No matter what I do.” “No,” he whispered.

As he twisted, the collar of his grimy jacket tugged, and the streetlight caught the skin of his neck. My breath hitched. There, just above his wrist, was a mark. A crude, spiraling pattern, like a barbed-wire vine, etched into the skin. It wasn’t a tattoo. It looked burned, branded. I’d seen that exact pattern. Not on him, but drawn on Mara’s wrist earlier.

All I could feel was burning. Like someone had pressed hot metal to my skin. Lora pulled my shirt open. I felt the air hit my chest and then I heard her gasp. “What the hell…” she whispered. Michael moved beside her, his voice tense. “What is it?” Greg knelt over me. “Shit.” “What? What’s happening?” I choked out. And then I saw it—just barely, when Lora shifted so I could glance down. A mark. Bright crimson. Shaped like a crescent moon surrounded by flames.

Chapter 54 Set Fire and Burn by Ruth Nalio Alatap… I crested the hill, out of breath, just in time to see Zander fall to the ground. Angelica stood about ten feet away from them, her body covered in brilliant orange flames, wind whipping all around the crumbling city. I opened my mouth to yell for her to run when tornadoes began to drop all over the city. My eyes widened as her orange flames turned blue and white. What little had been left of her clothes quickly burned away, followed by her skin and muscle, until she was nothing more than a flaming skeleton.

I shut the wooden door, kicked off my boots, and lay down on the narrow iron bed, waiting for sleep to take over. Then, a sudden, burning pain flared deep in the flesh of my shoulder. I gasped, my legs curling up as I grabbed my thigh through my trousers. The skin over the old mark felt like it was being pressed by a hot iron, the heat radiating outward through my muscles. "Why..." I muttered, my breath coming in short, shallow puffs as I squeezed the burning skin. That mark had only react for two reasons. Once when I am in extreme danger, and once when my twin sister is close by.

If I was hurt, not only Freya and I would have felt it, but so would Ricky and Black. My skin, if it had been burnt slightly, was now healed anyway. It was just a thin tint of red, disappearing quickly. The only thing left behind was the burnt marks on my pants. Ricky stood by me as the girl pressed a thin layer of ointment with his hands crossed over his chest.

As a result… The moment he turned off the fire, the burnt pot made a loud sound. It exploded! The few hundred degree Celsius pot debris flew toward his arms. Like a big chunk of burning iron, it burnt his white shirt and left a burn mark on his arm. Anthony quickly tossed it away, but the huge red mark still remained on his arm. The entire patch of his skin was burnt. The patch blistered and turned red, and the pain seared throughout his body. Anthony’s face contorted tightly as he walked to the water tap to wash off the wound. “Daddy!”

Right in the spot where Mark's canines had tried to pierce my skin for the second time, there wasn't a normal scar. There was a blackened mark, the size of a coin, that looked like a shadow burn under the skin. As I brushed it with the tip of my finger, I let out a shriek of stinging pain that made me cringe. It felt as if a thousand ice needles were being driven straight into my nervous system. What the fuck? What the hell was this? Mark hadn't managed to mark me, and neither had Killian. Then why was my body reacting as if I had been marked by a demon? I felt my skin again while my hands trembled with pure worry. However, right at that moment, a couple of taps were heard from the bedroom d
