Post Apocalyptic Gold Hunter Chapter 1 Novels & Stories

He held his throat as he his skin started to burn away, his ashes going up in embers. "No!" The woman ran to him as his body crumbled to the ground. She grabbed his hand, but it turned to ash in her grasp. The stench of burning flesh filled the air around them as Amira picked up her knives and got into position. The woman's shoulders rose and fell, her loud breathing coming in quickly as the anger within her rose to its peak. The mark on her skin took on a golden hue, glowing brighter than it did before as the Vampire turned her gaze on her. Amira felt her heart sink into her stomach as the murderous gaze held her firmly in place.

Apocalypse I paced in his study, fidgeting with the cuffs of my silk blouse, looking at the door, every time I turned before continuing to pace. I keep expecting him to burst through the door with the good news that he has her. She, my next clue to get me one step closer to my principal goal, the Fifth Element. But before getting my prize, I have to collect the other four elements first. And now that Antone most certainly has Kalama, I would only need to get the other three.

But how many innocent lives would be lost if we went to war with the hunters? Shaking my head, I reach up and rub the puckered scar where the wound had been. The bullet must have been dipped in wolfsbane as it was taking too long to heal. Even with silver, once it was out of the body, healing took very little time but it had already been a week and the scar bothered me as much as the strange girl standing in the clearing.

I didn't want to question her or make her relieve her bad past but her words sounded unbelievable. "I never knew you went through a lot sis, I'm truly sorry. As for Stacey, I recently met her at the hotel I'm in, and I kind of felt like she wasn't lying." I said softly. "That's what golddiggers do, they trick and lie. That lady is a professional gold digger who can easily manipulate you, so avoid her at all cost and stay away from her." she said. "Okay, thank you for making things clear to me. I will talk to you later, I love you." I whispered.

Akshara’s heart pumped more blood to know that she was the next to read that weird book with an eye. The book went to Azile who was got on her feet from an unknown faint. The weird look and efficiency of the book thrilled Azile and pages opened to her in words written in mud, “Awaken Love, Shall Not Be A Delight. Let Thy Onus, Vex Your Soul; Perish In Disgrace.” The prophecy book with an eye moved towards Akshara and stood in front of her. Upon eye to eye contact with Akshara, the book flipped its pages and finally settled in a page to uncover her prophecy; the letters appeared in blood made of gold. The prophecy of Akshara,

The adrenaline from the docks still clung to my skin long after I returned to the penthouse. Even after locking the door behind me, I couldn’t shake the memory of the Stalker’s shriek echoing through the fog. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw those dead white eyes lunging toward me through the snow. The apocalypse had started early. Which meant every second mattered now. I crossed the dark penthouse slowly, the city lights of Oakhaven glowing beneath the floor-to-ceiling windows like a dying constellation. Somewhere below, people were laughing in rooftop bars, arguing in traffic, planning weddings and business meetings…

I shouted, and the ground under us shook like something alive. Cullen froze. His lips opened. But it was just a little and he looked at my arms. To the way my scars were glowing brighter. Brighter than before. The golden fire that was swirling inside it. The kind of power that was surging inside me. It felt like I was about to be torn into pieces. I turned back toward the broken hallway. The Hunter was there, slowly walking out, still smirking even though his face was bloodied and his steps wobbled.

Daniela called out as his movements seemed sluggish. “O…over here.” He called out, coughing on the smoke. “Watch out!” He shouted as the ceiling beam came crashing down, separating us. I looked at where he had collapsed on the ground, his breathing shallow, then to the hole, the beam had created. It was a perfect way out, and I could quickly get up there and take my chances fighting whoever was sent to collect me, dead or alive. Or I could save The Hunter and use the secret underground escape tunnel.

The golden mark on my stomach suddenly burns. I cry out. Kael catches me. And somewhere beyond the walls, thousands of wolves begin to howl. The First Wolf whispers inside my mind. THEY HAVE COME FOR THE HEIR. I open my eyes. They are no longer grey. They are gold. And this time, I don't feel afraid. I feel ready.

The violet and gold veins beneath his skin flared back to life, hungry and impatient. "If the gods left their vault open," the Apex Predator grinned, a terrifying, ruthless light in his eyes. "We're going to clean it out." (End of Chapter 154)
