Ember told me. “What is she? Is she okay? Can she hear us right now?” I questioned. “Chrysalis is physically a hybrid witch and wolf. And she’s okay at the moment thanks to you and Tai. And she can’t hear everything but can feel all of you. I wouldn’t take that from her.” She said smiling again. “Is she going to be okay If we let her go?” I asked a bit worried. “If you give her a bit more help if you know what I mean.” She said, hinting at us being more active.

Makoto spoke, swirling the red wine in his glass, “You see, we aren’t merely in the business of flesh anymore. That part is old news. Anybody can snatch a girl off the streets, drug her, and sell her body for a few bills. But we… we have been building something bigger. Something eternal.” The lean brat nodded in excitement. "We call it Project Chrysalis. For years, our finest doctors, scientists, and handlers have worked in the shadows. The Serpents no longer want to just sell flesh. We want to manufacture it. Breed it. Shape it. Refine it.” Carlos stilled, his gaze darkening behind the glasses. The blonde chimed in. "We’re experimenting with controlled genetics. Enhancing children in secret

"I will call you Caldera. It is the crater the erupts from a Magma pocket is emptied just as you come from her. Her dragon form rises before me with a gleaming smile that I return. She grabs the hand of the other Magma and I watch as they both disappear. I yelp as my body drops down a foot as the square beneath my foot disappears. I gasp and it feel like something inside me slides into place. Lighted from the instant joy I watch as the blood I shed begins to fill the hole I stand in. I hurriedly climb out of it as my body begins to flame once more from the inside out. I shout at the pain as it feels like something is ripped away from the very center of me and the room glows. The room shines

"Seraphina Agni, save our clan and come back safe. We need you, before our clan disappears, please— save the phoenix from crying..."

’ I said taking the torches under my arms and walking downstairs. Kyla’s POV: My mother had bought me the most gorgeous dress for the ceremony. It was a light cream mermaid dress, almost white, made entirely of sequins, that went down to my feet. It had elbow long loose sleeves and the cleavage made me blush, as the curve of my breasts could be seen. It fit perfectly on my body, and it showed all my curves. The length was perfect enough for me to be barefoot. I’d go in the water as human, and emerge from it as a vampire with unknown abilities. I had nothing to lose at that point of my life. Everything had been perfectly arranged and they fulfilled their part of the deal. I didn’t know if I w

Per usual, sober-me had to deal with the consequences of drunk-me's choices. . . . Chrysalis. That was the word I repeated to myself whenever I felt like giving up... Whenever it felt like the world was kicking my ass (extra hard), leaving me black and blue, I solaced myself with the idea that I was in the midst of a painful transformative period. Like a caterpillar undergoing metamorphosis, molting over and over during its journey to become a colorful butterfly. Earlier today, I must've inwardly said the word upwards of a hundred times. My silent response to every demeaning remark that I'd heard while I was on set.

Because when a stranger knocked at your door in the middle of the night, asking for shelter amidst a crisis, there was simply no excuse to be made. Within that thirty days the butterfly would go through the craziest of cycles, starting as an egg enclosed within a shell that is both impenetrable and fragile. Gian embodies everything she hates about people. He's loud, too energetic, and always loves inserting himself in other people's business. Aera would make him leave if she could, and she tried for days on end. An apartment unit does not have enough room for two people who clash in every way possible. Then that shell would break to let out a creature that was hideous and scary and weird.
