Romans & histoires Nu: Carnival

If the police found out what really happened, Lio and everyone else who wasn’t human would be in danger. Celeste and I sat on my front porch painting each others’ toenails. She had chosen a clear polish with a rainbow shine for herself and I had chosen a cherry red with glitter. It had been a long time since we had some girl time. “So where’s Lio?” She asked, focused on carefully painting my big toe. “He’s at work. We’re supposed to be going to the carnival later if you want to come with.” I said smiling. “Sure. Is it the one in Betrys County? Or the one in Eleri? Because the one in Eleri is the largest one with lots of rides.” Her eyes were bright with excitement as she spoke about the carn

Opal nodded, "Let me help you." Casey smiled, "Thank you." *** "Caramel plums?" June said as he took the bag full of crystalized plums and smiled softly at Apollo, "You remembered." "I never forgot anything about you." Apollo said. June blushed and looked away. They were walking down the busy streets where the preparation for the annual carnival was taking place. "Do you remember you left around this time of the year?" June said as he looked up at the strings of red lanterns hung house to house.

"It's in a month and all the teenagers and unmated wolves go! I told Ricky he should go too, with him still being unmated and all." The Moon Carnival is a get together held in the Midwest annually where unmated wolves go for a weekend of fun. Wolves from all over the country go there in the hopes that their mate is maybe from another pack if they haven't found any luck on their own. I have never had any desire to go, I went when I was sixteen with my friends and I haven't gone back since. It screams of desperation to me. Maybe Harry should try going this year. "Not happening." I say.

Even a day reprieve would be better than nothing, she hoped he would be gone for a good, long while. When they left the Kreil wing, they walked toward the great hall then through the arched stone doorways toward the gardens beyond. The carnival was setup on the grounds beyond the gardens. It was mayhem, utter chaos on the grounds. There were people all around, the vast majority were happy and in love, sharing secret glances with promises of a fun night. Izzy shivered. “Was it one of them?” Nate asked, glancing down at Izzy. Seth and Logan looked at him with interest before they shared a glance.

I responded sarcastically. “Shut up,” Alessandro said jokingly and playfully shoved me off the sidewalk. “Hey! What if a car was about to drive in here hit me?” “The carnival is closed right now Isla. There will be no cars driving in or out of here besides us.” Alessandro deadpanned and I giggled. “Oh yeah. So, what are we going to do first?” I asked him excitedly.

I teased as I reached out to tug on his collar. His smile widened. “I mean, I am a gentleman too, so…” I laughed and let him lead the way. The carnival was in full swing with kids running around getting their faces painted. Clowns and mimes as well as other colourful performers all around putting on shows. Different games were set up mixed with different sounds and accompanied by different prizes. I looked around amazed by everything really. “Do you come to such things often?” Branson asked me. I pulled my eyes off a guy on a unicycle. “Uh, no actually. Never been. My dad wasn’t a fan of anything that involved well… fun.”

"Are you sure you are fine?. I can have Joanne check to see if something is wrong once she gets back to the palace.” "I’m fine. Besides, I need to be here to prepare for the carnival." He states, "I know how much this is important to you." We were hosting a carnival to celebrate the treaty and union between humans and wolves. We had thought to push it back a little, but doing that would only cause panic to the humans outside, who had already sought out their freedom, and no one except for the people in the palace knew about the attack.

“He is a prince, and—” “If you can’t follow my rules, all three of you can go home.” “What about you?” My mate studies me. “Where are you going?” “I’ll be with you for a while. Then I have to meet someone.” The carnival is on the outskirts of the city. Bright, colorful, flashing lights, striped tents, and covered stalls are sprinkled throughout the field on this dark night. There are plenty of people milling about, most of them families or couples. Shifters are sensitive to consistent loud sounds, but since Derrick and Cedric have been on the battlefield for so long, they don’t really register them. And Finn was born here, so his ears have adapted. But even shifters who live in the Human Wol

My gaze shifted to where they were pointing. Sure enough, a small carnival had been set up in an open field, its vibrant banners fluttering in the breeze. The sound of lively music blended with the laughter of children filled the air. A bright Ferris wheel rose high against the sky, and the sugary scent of cotton candy and fried snacks drifted toward us. "It’s called a carnival, sweetie," I replied. "A carnival?" Syrah repeated innocently. "You haven’t been to a carnival, Syrah?" Jasper asked as he caught a glimpse of her through the side mirror.

Ethan's POV Hoots of people in the crowd met my ears as Anastasia and I tried to find our way in the stream of people at this carnival. This carnival is attended by almost half of New York City; they all went crazy the moment the announcer announced our arrival. I was thinking of any outing we could go on when Lucas's call came in, and he said an invitation to attend this year's carnival came in for me. It was a mistake on his part as the message never got to me. The carnival is exactly the kind of thing we needed. There are other business moguls here too, and this year's theme seemed a bit different from the other years.
