Irene Novels & Stories

Herculia asked. “Who is the next Immortal on our list?” Nicole asked. “Let's see, we’re supposed to find Avia Ignius, the Immortal of Phoenix Magic; Episteme Psyches, the Immortal of knowledge; and Edith Anima, the Immortal of life and light. The moon goddess said these Immortals are easy to find, and we don't really need to do anything. We could just give Daniela a phone call and wait for the other two to cross paths with us,” Mary replied.

Irene, the pack's healer and Rushi's best friend, chimed in after a long time. Members believed in her as she foresaw people’s destiny. Since she was young, she had been seeing people’s future through her dreams. She was also a healer who used traditional herbs to heal different diseases that people had. “How?” Shantel brought me to the living world causing me to lift my head to look at Irene. “As we all know, the moon goddess is loving and caring to her people. We all know that Edna there, “ She pointed at me then continued, “Is cursed at her birth and also, we all know that she is neither a witch nor a wolf. We all saw the uni

” Mor doesn't mince her response, “Irene is the name of a woman from an old story my mother used to tell me. The story of Irene and Konstantin is somehow famous in our pack. Irene was the first daughter of the first Alpha of the Tempest pack. Konstantin was a strange man from a strange pack, and they fell in love.”

IRENE I woke up earlier than usual, not because I wanted to, but because I was nervous. I stood still, arms folded tightly over my chest, my eyes watched the faint glow of the arena. Today would define me—not just as Irene Kent, but as the Luna of the Quick River Pack. I was so nervous that I didn't hear the door creak open behind me, before I could turn, I felt him. Lucian. His warmth pressed against my back, his arms circled my waist in possession.

, By the time she finally stayed awake longer, the land had already changed. The air felt different. Heavier. Wilder. “What mountain is that?” Irene asked suddenly, leaning forward slightly. Her eyes stayed on the horizon. Wide. Curious. “That mountain is huge…” Arnold closed his book and followed her gaze. A faint smile tugged at his lips. “Gerrerear mountain.” “Ge… what?” Irene blinked. “Gerrerear,” he repeated, slower this time. She frowned harder. “Why does that sound so wrong?”

Irene looked down quickly to hide her laughter. “Wonderful,” I said sweetly. Then he rushed out of the office, leaving us there. Irene burst into hysterical laughter. “Oh my God,” she wheezed. “That was evil.” I grinned. “You loved it.” “What happens if he actually reaches America and tries finding the woman?” “What woman?” I asked innocently. Irene stared at me. “The old woman with the herb shop.” "What woman, Irene? What store? There is no old apothecary in the woods.” I smiled slowly. “That mountain region is mostly forest.”

I no longer wanted to get Irene’s fake love anymore. At the birthday party, Irene stared at our chat irritably since I did not answer her. She turned around and instructed her assistant. “Why is Theo not here yet? Go and look for him.” Her assistant’s phone buzzed, and after reading the notification, his face fell. “Ms. Anderson, look at the video online! Mr. Smith’s mother’s hospital ward is on fire!”

If anything, what I had seen on the TV seemed dull in comparison to what went on in the Iridescence Pack. My eyes widened and my jaw became slack as I realized why this was called the Carnival Cerulean. Bundles of living flame were suspended in the air, casting their beautiful light on the Carnival below. The flames weren’t normal, flickering with orange and red light. They were a rich shade of blue, cerulean to be exact. Within those flames were different shades and colors, all stemming from the color blue. They crackled and snapped, sending cobalt embers into the air whenever something managed to catch itself in the flames.

Now, it was my turn to smile sweetly while she fumed with anger. I walked around her and took my seat with Chris still snickering beside me. She glared at the both of us before storming away. She needed to understand that I wasn't one of the girls she bullied. "Why's Queen B's face so red and ugly?". Paige asked as she sat down. She walked in as soon as Tiana left. And Queen B was the name she gave her meaning Queen Bitch. Though personally, I think that name was way too nice for her.

A grin curved onto my lips on the realization that I'm about to be the strongest being on Dexo Fernia – and soon be crowned as their queen. Holding my double-bladed swallow on my left hand, I walked through the only barrier keeping me locked outside the coliseum. Emotionless I waited for it to be removed out of my sight and the cheers grew louder every second. And as the wood barrier was slowly removed, those cheers just grew even louder. "VERONICA! GO VERONICA! GO VERONICA!!" I held my head high when I was called. "Let's give it up... to the Herald of Dexo Fernia, the shadow assassin! The daughter of Hikaris himself… VERONICA!"
