Novel & Cerita Sirens Lament

“Sirens are unique. They don’t just manipulate magic—they manipulate emotion. They can make people feel things. Love. Fear. Despair. They can sway entire armies with just a whisper. A powerful enough siren can drown cities without ever touching the water.” Kylan let out a low whistle. “And here I thought Briar’s worst trait was her stubbornness.” I shot him a glare. “Not the time.” Theo smirked but continued. “There’s a reason sirens were hunted. They weren’t just feared—they were hated. People don’t like losing control, and sirens? They take it.” I shifted uncomfortably. “You’re making it sound like I’m some kind of monster.” Theo’s smirk faded. “No. But you are something people will want t

Although I act recklessly from time to time, I keep it at a safe limit. "River, I swear one day, if I die because of your short temper, I will come back and haunt you for the rest of your life. You better spare my life," Lucas says next to me. His eyes widen as we zoom past dozens of vehicles. And that's also when I hear the police siren. I look through the side mirror and notice a police car behind us, a mini car with a red and blue light on top of it, with its siren blaring in my ears. I continue with my speed but slow down as the police car doesn't stop following us.

“Men are drawn to your calm; you’re the eye of the hurricane. Even my team has fallen at your feet, wanting to slay your dragons and to protect you.” He had the analogy all wrong. She wasn’t the eye of the tempest. She was the storm, wiping out everything in her path, destroying the lives of those she loved. Abby stirred. “You’re comparing me to a monstrous sea nymph—a siren with a flayed soul that sits on a heap of decaying bones and lures any mortal who sails by with a bewitching song. You may be right.” “Baby, no—”

He shrugged. "Sirens...like evil mermaids." She said laughing. " Some legends say they are beautiful women with a tail like mermaids and their songs enchant sailors. Leading them to crash into rocky shores or lure them into the waters to drown them. Others say they look more like birds. Still with the same purpose." He smirked.

We stood up stiffly from our spots on the cold floor, our thin clothes doing little to protect us from the chill. "Ugh, that damn siren," Serene growled as she rubbed the sleep from her eyes. Staring at her, I can see her eyes flashed with annoyance as she glared at the unknown, her fists clenching at her sides, as if the shrill siren grated on her already frayed nerves, the never-ending alarm a mockery of their captivity, as if she longed to smash the source of that wretched noise, to tear it from the wall and hurl it to the ground in a burst of shattered plastic and broken circuits.

It was a voice I’d never heard before, yet it was achingly familiar, filled with longing, like he’d waited lifetimes to say it. “Adam?” I tried to step closer, but the ground seemed to shift, pulling me back, away from him. “I’ve waited so long,” he murmured, his voice filled with a strange sadness that made my heart ache. “So many centuries…” “Wait!” I called, reaching out, but he began to fade, dissolving into the mist. And then I jolted awake, my heart racing, my skin damp with sweat.

At that moment, Phoebe panicked and tried to snatch Dad's phone, shouting, "Dad! Don't look!" But it was too late, and Dad's eyes widened suddenly. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. Immediately after, his secretary's urgent voice sounded. "Mr. Chapman, the signal source is coming from these bones. Initial speculation suggests these might… They might be Mr. Zack's bones!"

"Colleen, it was our fault! Please come back and save Adrian. He tried to jump into the river while we weren't looking. He can't survive without you!" I was eating fruit Caleb had cut for me, watching the videos and apologies like they were a joke. Netizens commented disdainfully. "It's too late for regrets." Honestly, those were my exact thoughts. They didn't cherish what they had when it was theirs, so who exactly were they putting on this performance for now?

I felt a hot liquid flow from my eyes and run down on my cheeks. “N-No…” I finally voice out. “Y-You were lying.” “I am sorry Meri. She loves you and she’s calling your name before she finally closed her eyes.” “No, you liar! Momma is not dead!” I shouted and made some of my schoolmates look in my directions. “She told me she will watch me get the trophy again.” “Your grandmother will have a wake at the chapel near the Green’s mansion. I’m sorry.”

"Did you tell your friends to post all that trash under Brenda's social feed? I knew it. I was wondering why you'd been so quiet lately. Turns out you were waiting to pull this. Do you have any idea she cried because of those comments? Get over here and apologize to Brenda right now." He had no idea my hand was shaking so badly I could barely keep hold of my phone. The wounds had gotten infected. Dozens of blisters all over my body had been lanced. Even after taking far too many painkillers, the pain was still unbearable. I wanted to tell Ronald that I had no idea what he was talking about. I was in so much pain it felt like tens of thousands of ants were crawling over and biting into my ski
