"First, it’s none of your business what I wear and why I wear them, but I didn't wear this hear like this. When I arrived, I removed my jacket because of the people downstairs and the bodily heat flowing around. When we came upstairs, I didn't think it would be this cold which is why I have the goosebumps. This is called a crop top, so of course, my midriff lik

PERCY As I walked out of the cafeteria, I couldn’t just shake off the feeling that something was not right. Why did an experienced vampire keep blushing anytime I made the slightest suggestive comment. I hadn’t known any girl that blushed – except back in high school and they were all in the tenth grade.

ILANA. The Blood Moon Festival came five days too early. On the third evening, the moon bathed its eerie, crimson glow over the Nightshade Pack. This was an event rarely experienced and considered by the pack to be a sign from the Moon Goddess, hastening the fate of two destined mates. The pack was in an uproar of joyful frenzy. The whole of the pack square hummed with excitement, as though even the air vibrated in anticipation. I faltered at the door to Rana's small cabin and brushed off invisible lint from the pale blue dress that Rana had lent me for tonight. "Rana, are you sure about this?" I asked, trying to keep the nerves from edging my voice.

Chapter 33: Her Touch Was Louder Than the Screams The sky outside hadn't gone back to normal. If anything, the red seam looked angrier now — thicker, like a scar splitting wider, pulsing faintly as if it had a heartbeat. The light leaking from it wasn't just eerie anymore; it was unnatural. Wrong. Casting flickers of red through the blinds that made the walls look like they were bleeding.

I got into the office ready to throw a tantrum if an apology was what they called to offer to me, the grey haired white doctor greeted me and stretched his hands towards the chair at his front, indicating I should have my sit. “ What’s wrong with her?” I asked immediately I took my sit, the doctor took up a chart and starred at it for a minute leaving me in an even greater suspense. He finally spoke up saying that Crimson was suffering from malnutrition and it affected blood pressure and contributed to her high body temperature. She was finally discharged after some few tests were conducted and I took her home after searching for my car keys for another hour. Crimson said nothing as we drove

The moon shone brightly in the night sky as Alpha Mike and his pack, accompanied by Alpha Hugo and his pack, set out on the perilous journey to the mountain of the crimson werewolves. The crimson crystals embedded in the chests of these fierce creatures were rumored to possess great power, and both Alpha Mike and Alpha Hugo were determined to obtain them, despite the dangers that lay ahead. As they journeyed through the thick, very old woods on their way to the famous Crimson Werewolf Mountain, they felt a sense of worry in the air. The only sounds were the leaves moving and sometimes the sound of branches breaking.

Crimson, still moving at superspeed, had then descended upon one creature that turned out to have been devouring the insides of one of the warehouse men. He struck it twice from the back then added one powerful blow that sent a bolt of lightning ripping apart the creature. Kristina was then on his side. The creatures were still quite a handful, their ferocious figures darkened in the night. “There’s too many of them!” Crimson said. “Yeah, no shit!” Kristina snapped back, twisting her dagger in her hand. Crimson was then thinking about getting both of them out of there when the sky boomed followed by a bright luminescence that turned out to be some kind of large mass of energy just a few feet

Now, I crave it. I stood in my usual spot, overlooking the garden of Tencrest. Early as could be, but it was a bustling space for the Founding Ten this time of the year. Some ate breakfast outside, others were working on some sparring in the back of the property. I couldn’t make out who it was, but Sasha stood watch over them. There were many things I disliked about the Crimson Ball each year. My space was invaded and the nonstop meetings were exhausting, but seeing the liveliness of the home brought me joy. It was limited today, but I was proud of the visual proof that the Crimson Accord did work. Today, it was needed.

Funny how I had been expecting to see the gathering taking place in a palour or something else. Something entirely different from the supposed small gathering taking place on a beach with a loud song playing in the background and people buzzing around in sneakers, trekkers, canvases, and other foot wares with different logos and signs. I was hella thankful I had followed my instincts and dressed in a long dark blue jeans trousers and a black top along with a matching jacket, Adidas brand's trekkers graced my feet and a random black handbag. Surprisingly, Silas and I were almost matching, he wore white trekkers, blue jeans trousers with a little tear on the knees areas and a white top, only t

Blanche asked, she stood behind them and rested her elbows on one of the shelves near the aquarium. "Because it's nice! Don't you think so too Blanche?" Forest said and Crimson gave her a look. Blanche opened her mouth but didn't say anything. She ran her eyes on them, Crimson was wearing a red long sleeve sweater and Forest have a green mini skirt under her purple dress. Crimson had a more defined waist than Forest but the latter has such a voluptuous body. Their chest was eminent in their choice of dress. "Even Crimson already met hers!" Forest told her excitedly.
