I could see another blow approaching me and due to my good sight, I was able to catch on and used that opportunity to hit him in the chest with the back of my sword. Yes, he was down and there was blood coming out of his mouth. Immediately, I kicked him in the face so he wouldn't stand up so easily. I didn't want to ruin his cuteness so I stopped. "You are good. You deserve to be a queen." He finally said. "Theo picked a good and reliable one." He stood up and left the fighting room. I dropped the sword as I took my seat. "Can I get a mirror?" I asked Riley but she gave me her phone instead. "Wow," I said. "You don't use the iPhone series? This is the latest iPhone 13. I got it last week." "I meant my face. It's red. What will I tell my friends?" I said. As I checked the time on her phone. I left mine at the dorm." I paused. "10:30 pm?" I gasped. "I've got to go," I said."But you haven't seen the place finish." She said as she stood up. "Probably next time," I said to her as I
The living room was ajar as I and Beauty stepped inside. Beauty thought opening the wrapped clothes in public won't be the best thing so we went to her house to do more research about Vampires. I couldn't tell her I was one. Not a Vampire but Dhampir. Ava didn't believe in this stuff so she didn't follow us to Beauty's place. I stepped into a brown carpeted hallway as I watched her enter a room. Immediately she locked the door behind her. I dropped my bag. Stared at her room which was pained in a dark brown color. Warm and also almost dark for a lady to stay in. My room in NYC or dorm had more light than the one Beauty stayed in. I brought out the unwrapped cloth and placed it on the bed. "So no one's around?" I asked. Trying to get more information from her. Her house seemed weird in a way but it might be my mind. "No, my dad is the dean, remember? and my mom is out of town for business. She is a doctor." Beauty said. "Then why is your door open if no one is home?" I asked he
"You are avoiding me." She said as she took the sandwich from my plate and put it in her mouth. "It is obvious. Don't make it obvious." I frowned at the sight of seeing her eat my food."What! I'm hungry." She pouted. "I'm not avoiding you, I'm... I'm ... just trying to... clear my head." I stuttered. She brought her head up and down slowly as she continued to chew. "You know you are lying." "I'm not." I lied. I guessed she could smell the nervousness in my voice. So much for being Queen of supernatural beings in the shadow world. Beauty rolled her eyes. "I've got good news, the guy you were staring at yesterday." I try to remember but nothing came to my mind. "Who?" I asked."The one with the blondie girlfriend." She rolled her eyes again as she swallowed. "You just finished all my food." I placed my hand on my chin. "I'm still hungry," I said. "Do u want to hear the news or not?!!" Beauty asked. "What about Chase?" I asked. She bit her lips trying to keep up. "Who?" She as
Beauty can also see through him. She is a witch after all and they were powerful beings and luckily for me, she couldn't see a thing because I had so much power that witches don't even know I possessed, not even Theo or the hunters.I was a hybrid with so much power, I could destroy anything or anybody who came between Chase and me and I won't hesitate to keep the council out of the way to have what I have always desired. Chase.I heard a tap on the desk as I recovered from my daydream. "Inez, they just chose Daniel to play the role of Hamlet. Lucky you." Beauty said with excitement. I didn't get why she was happy but fuck! I was really happy."Wow." Maybe the lord was really on my side. We will spend so much time together learning our lines. Alone.I smiled shyly. Exactly how I wanted it to be. Chase and Inez are together once again after a long time of breaking apart. What was fate up to?"See me in my office...Both of you." The lecturer pointed at me and Chase as we both looked at
"She is weird," Ava whispered to my ear and I agreed. I couldn't tell Ava about the witch's story because she wouldn't have believed me. I miss Denise. She would have picked on the moment you tell her things like this. She would have trusted you. "I will see you later. I have to go talk to Chase." I smiled. As I was about to walk away, Ava drew my hand back. "Who is Chase? The guy you have a crush on? Or your ex-boyfriend?" Ava asked. Wasn't sure about who I was referring to. "I meant Daniel," I said to her. She picked on me immediately. "Oh, the hot guy playing Hamlet? His girlfriend has pissed already, she will be more pissed. I love violence." She smirked as I shook my head and walked toward Daniel. Ava was ready for the drama that might take place any moment from that period. I wouldn't fight with that blonde girl in public. I could kill her if she dares to fight with me. "Wow Daniel. Your hair looks great." I complimented as I smiled at him. I wasn't sure if he knew I was in
"You did. And please let me return the favor." I said to him with a smile. I wanted to protest, to keep him for much longer. "I would be honored and I promise not to try shitty things tonight," I assured. I wanted him to do shitty things with me. I didn't know what was wrong with me. I shouldn't be thinking about this but my hormones?!!! It was tempting me. He pulled in front of my dorm. He packed his car at a spot and we both came down from his car. I opened the door as I walked down the hall with Chase behind me. I unlocked my room door as he walked in too. "Sorry, this place is a little bit scattered." I picked up my panted from the floor and clothes from the bed as I threw them inside my wardrobe. I didn't want him to see that. "It's okay." He smiled. And he sat on the chair. I brought out an extra blanket as I passed it to him. Our hands touched by mistake and I could feel a rush of warmth through me. The depth of feeling in my mind made me wonder what kind of guessing he
Mr. Greg walked in and asked us to practice one more time. It was as if this week was all about his course. He made us so busy during the rest of the days and I was happy today was the performance day. Daniel and I rehearsed our line over and over and this time, I guessed we did a good job. I was happy I got to spend more time with him. The tall girl I saw at the uncompleted building the last time had Introduced herself as Olivia and Beauty said her dad asked her to look over Olivia and also give her a tour around the school. Those two becoming close all of a sudden was suspicious. I guess she was a witch too because her Aura was becoming like Beauty's own. All I could say was, Witches were protectors and they swore to protect the chosen one if she was in danger. I didn't have a good feeling about her around, but what harm could she do? I had told Theo about what I saw and he said he would look into it. I just have to wait for his answer. Olivia decided to work backstage. She
"I could kill you now." He said as Riley talked through the talkie. "Stop guys, Ethan already tracked it down... it is heading towards a St. Louis church. Meet us there." She cut the connections as he brought down his sword from my neck. "You are lucky today." He said as he walked down the street. "We are heading towards the church." He added. Throughout the journey, I was angry. Angry enough to try to control my fangs and claws from popping out and causing trouble. I tried my best to calm myself down. If I had unleashed the beast within me, Theo could have died that moment but I needed him to bring Chase's memories back. I couldn't get rid of him just like that. Theo had just entered my worst book. We headed towards the church as we carefully watched the demon enter inside. The shocking thing was he didn't burn down after he had entered. He was a demon, he was meant to burn the moment he came in contact with the church but he didn't. I didn't know why but he walked in there with so
