“After all, the first thing she handed me was a forbidden book about genies. I was nine years old. I learn how to hide from them all. You’re wrong about one thing. I’m not a phony. I am intelligent because I forced myself to be. My kind has no place in this world and I taught myself everything. I excelled at everything because I had to survive, to become strong. I always considered this place home till I left. And that’s when I realized. Mistfall Wilderness Camp will never accept me as who I am. But there are others who will, who have. And they are the people who now have my loyalty!” I stare at her, “What about Jesse?” Rachel raises a brow, “Jesse will realize one day that his place is alwa

AVA’S POV After the grand walk-in of those men in tailored suits with their leader, Vincenzo, who had me on chokehold, not because of his handsomeness, but because of the aura emitting from him, everything changed. It screamed danger so much that ice slashed down my spine at any given chance. And his soulless eyes? It was everything I wasn’t. Cold. Calm. Domineering. Dark and menacing. I almost melted under his scrutinizing gaze and the second he turned on his heels and disappeared down the hallway, I was finally able to breathe again.

My heart began beating faster and faster, “Calm down, Davina… there’s no one here… don’t be scared,” I said to myself as I kept swallowing hard and looking around. “I think… I should move now…” I mumbled while taking a deep breath, While looking around I took a step ahead and the ground beneath me collapsed and I fell into something deep. A scream escaped from my lips when I landed on the floor harshly, “Jesus,” I groaned as I tried to move. As soon as I released what just happened, I opened my eyes and looked around me. I was laying on the wooden floor; I looked up and saw that I was underneath the ground I just walked on.

The cottage was like my dad's hidden lair because it was very hard to find and after a rumage through the shelves, Kai had stumbled on the book again and had passed it to me. It had a boldly written title THE REPELLER's DESCENDANTS I've gone quarter of the pages and all I see were pictures of the previous repellers who passed down their gifts through their DNA. I had purposely gone to the end of the book and had seen the last repeller. Maybe they thought the next one would start the book 2 and I'm the next one. I was surprised finding my grandmother's photo amongst them. She was a repeller too.(This is all my imaginations, not real, just a novel imagination, read on)

Dmitri asked in stutter with his eyes wide open as he stared at the glowing water in front of them. Romero immediately mind-linked her wife and passed on the message of their discovery to the enchantress. “What would that supposed to mean?” Calliope asked the enchantress but Inessa was still staring at the moon. “Calliope…” she called out before turning to looked at the anxious woman behind her. “I think the moon goddess had descended,” she uttered with her eyes glowing softly. In Bulan, Agatha opened her eyes and turned to her daughter who was waiting for her to say something.

"So, do devils actually exist? if they do, do humans have demon-like powers such as controlling fire or turning into beasts?" "I don't know whether demons are real or not, but when I read the legend of the formation of Lithonia, I realized that there are many things in this world that I have never met. Devils, just like Gods. They are not the same as us, ordinary humans. But there is one fact that I knew a few years ago about the kings who once ruled Lithonia. The first king was a descendant of Gods, it made him inherit a very large and often hidden mysterious power. The fact that only the descendants of the first king could inherit that power. But until now, I don't know what kind of secret

It was a good question, so she asked it, hoping something would start to make sense eventually. “Simple,” Damien said. “You would never have gone for it. Nick’s description of you being a tight ass was pretty accurate back then. You needed to see it as some sort of challenge to your pride before you would give in to your darker side. Now that you have, we can go even darker, deeper down that path, which is exactly what you said you wanted, if I remember correctly.” He tilted his head to the side slightly. “You do still want it, right?”

It was a green-bound volume that smelled faintly of dried leaves. “This is Herbal Lexicon of the Veil. It consists of the plants you can only find in the Void—what heals, what poisons, and what kills slowly. That’s what most of the Ascendants are going for. Not the artifacts. But I want you to grab them all. Do you think you can do it?” I met his intense gaze slowly after his question. It pressed down on me and pressured me to nod my head with a stiff smile tugging my lips.

“Otherwise, only the elders could have read it.” Ava and I leaned in. The title on the top page read: THE DESCENT OF ALURA: THE WITCH OF THE THOUSAND MOUTHS. I swallowed hard, even on paper, the description sent shivers down my spine. Ava traced the title with her fingertips. “Thousand mouths?” Bonnie nodded grimly, “She lures, seduces, manipulates. Makes others do her dirty work, brings her victims without lifting a finger.” I glanced down at the page, there was a detailed sketch of Alura: a woman with long, tangled black hair, sharp nails and a smoke that looked more like a wound than a mouth.

A loud and deafening screech welcomed them; the band of darkness was no longer lingering the cauldron’s mouth. The piercing cry grew louder as they entered the cabin. Clarence did not care about what the sound was, so he went over to the alpha and tried waking him up. Unfortunately, it was hopeless – Cliden was no longer breathing. Clarence, though he was envious of his brother’s position, cared for him. After all, Cliden was the only family he had left who was bold enough to accept his unfriendly nature despite of him being indifferent, and he regretted it – he regretted choosing envy over love.
