Alexa wouldn’t do something this stupid. She was smart and coordinated. It was someone else.“Turn around, Elliot.”I could tell what it was by the sound of that beautiful voice. “Wow. I never thought an angel would visit me. It’s an honor, really.”“I’m an Angel. A messenger of the Lord.”“I know who you are. Since angels have a good memory I’m sure you know we’ve met before. You’re Liam Javeline?”“And you are the devil.”My fists tightened. Lot wanted to come out and destroy him but I had to relax and hear him out first.“What do you want?”“We will take her soon.”“What do you mean?”Liam took a step forward, showing he wasn’t scared of the fumes of anger that was emitting from me. “She was sent to distract you from your mission. She is a product of us. We will take her back.”“I don’t care who she is or why she is here but she isn’t going anywhere. She will be with me. Understand?”“She doesn’t love you. She only feels for you because of the mark. She can only love an angel like

I dialed his number and waited for a reply. It was a fast response.“Wow.” Hearing wow from his mouth really annoyed me. “You can call me after you made friends with Liam.”“Excuse me? How is my friend making any problem for you?”“He’s my business rival. Don’t get to close to him or he’ll try to get to me through you.”“Liam isn’t like that. He’s a sweet guy.”There was a short laugh over the phone. “You hardly know him and you’ve figured that he’s sweet.”“Don’t get me wrong but… Never mind. I’ll call Liam instead.”“Wait! Wait!” I smiled. Good thing he couldn’t see me. “Why are you begging? You feel that Liam will get me before you do.”He laughed again but it was rather a pathetic laugh. “I’ve already gotten you.”I laughed. “Don’t be so sure.”“To prove that you do, dress up and let me in when I reach your house. I’ll be there in the blink of an eye.”“You don’t have my address. If I don’t give you how will you get here, then?”“I have my ways.”Elliot was unbelievable. His over

“It’s clear that I’ve already done that.”She looked up to him with her pretty watery emerald eyes. “When?”“Wasn’t I the one that made you clean my room? I forced Brit down your throat.”“So we’re even?”“If you say so.”She laughed. That laugh unclouded her brain and made her body temperature normal. Elliot picked her off the floor and cleaned her tears.“Don’t you ever wonder why I was ready to kill myself so I wouldn’t be with you?”He dressed her scattered hair. “Why?” he asked, giving eye contact.“My family was always a holy one. My father did his best to instill utmost holiness into us. I followed it but I didn’t know how my siblings could still harbor hatred for him. It was all a f*****d up sham. They did terrible things to me. Why do terrible things always happen to me?”“That’s why you left me?”“No, I was so obedient to our holy ways. It was sudden, you were the devil and I was the holy Queen of Halton. Anyone else would have done the same.”“Am I that horrifying?”She lau

I got down from his bed and looked for him. I couldn’t find him anywhere. I faced the vintage wall clock and interpreted the time. It was seven minutes past seven. I wondered when he brought me here.He’s such a sneaky scoundrel. I glanced at what I wore. I was in a white nightdress. I panicked, was it Elliot who changed my clothes. I wouldn’t take it lightly with him. I might be his mate but I deserved respect too.I cooled my anger and searched for food. There was nothing edible in his room. It was frustrating.Someone knocked at the door. I ran towards it, hoping he was the one. I opened it but saw Nora instead. She smiled and entered the room.“Good morning, Miss Halton. How was your night?”I didn’t believe it. The same woman who was my senior some days ago became my maid today. This type of lifestyle was lavish. I loved it.“Once again, call me Lexa.” My mouth watered when my eyes met with the delicious tray of breakfast she had in her hand.A glass cup of freshly squeezed oran

He went to page 400 where Seareign’s story started.Some boring history of Seareign started it. Elliot skipped through the pages, looking for anything useful. He was a speedy reader. Lexa saw how fast his eyes moved along the lines of the sentences.Lexa’s eyes caught a page. It had the picture of a seawater gate. Elliot didn’t notice it and was about to flip away but she stopped him. She took the book and went a few pages back. “Look, this page is talking about Seareign’s gate.”Elliot smiled at Lexa before looking down to the pages.

We were at the shore where our submarine was kept. Lexa was excited to see a submarine. She only saw ones on TV, thoughtless of entering her personal one.Lexa’s life slowly changed since Elliot entered it. Her life was boring and pathetic. She knew that something important was missing in her life from the day she entered High school. She always wondered why she was different, why she wasn’t like the rest.She knew why. She was never complete. Her mate wasn’t in her life then. She always knew that an important part of her was missing. She became complete the first day she met him.He was her miracle.Elliot talked to the man in charge of the submarine. Lexa stood beside them, waiting for the discussion to end.“Bring it to the shore. I want to impress her.”He winked at me. The man smiled and shook his hand before leaving.“Pray those eyes of yours won’t put you in trouble.”“I’m so scared,” he said sarcastically.“Remember I have more powers than you.”He removed his phone from his p

The light from the submarine stopped the attacking sharks for a second but they were more brutal in their next blows. It’d be hard for Lexa to drive with the nonstop blows but she wouldn’t give up. Elliot was scared. He hoped she was safe. There was only way he could help her at that time. He swam back into the cave. He would have used scissors instead but… “Here goes nothing.” He gently placed his hand on three hairs of the snake. The snake shook but he placed it back. With closed eyes, he pulled the hair of the snake. The snake’s white eyes shot opened. It let out a wild cry that woke the rest. All the snakes put their attention on Elliot. For that split moment in his life, he almost fainted on seeing the white eyes. He didn’t move and neither did the snakes. He knew their nose holes were working because he could see them moving. They roared and swam towards him. Lexa was moving recklessly. She couldn’t balance the movement of the two sides. She span in circles, turned upside

He told me many tales about heaven that made even me want to go there.He said that Angels grew like children on earth. They were taught the ways and traditions, and their behaviours would determine what category of angels they would fall into.Fierce angels became warriors and guardians of heaven, ready to fight at every instance of their life. Super-curious angels with a detective instinct were given missions to do on earth that had to do with mystery.God did know everything but sometimes sin had to make him look away.

Elliot's POV'Dragon Tamers, that's a terrible game.'I hadn't said anything to Lot since the incident and I wasn't planning to do so anytime soon.I cursed Satan. Why would he pick Dragon Tamers?!

Lexa's POVWe had been served our dishes. I was thankful I chose what I chose because when I saw my food, my lost appetite returned.Drinks were served with our food and we started to dig into it."It's been a while , Lexa," she said, eating to her heart's desire.I smirked. "Just a few months... But you changed so much."She smiled. "That's what money can do."She fluttered her eyelashes and moved her food slightly away then gave me a sneaky smile. To say the truth, I was confused at the sudden change in her position. Her movements didn't give me an idea of what she wanted to do until she talked."How are you and Elliot?" Wendy's smile grew wider and my smile grew lower. Even though she talked more now, she was still observant as she always had been. She noticed my dull face. "What's wrong? Did-did something happen?" It was hard to stop the tears from coming out so I used my cold palms to cover my hot teary eyes. I took a deep breath and cleared them. "You had a fight? Is everything

Elliot's POVI was not patient but I could wait till the next day before visiting my kingdom. It had been a long time since I had seen it, but I remember it vividly. It was recently that I realised how much freedom I had given Andras on my throne.I chose him because I trusted him, but even the best demons can't be relied on. I felt like a fool.

I couldn't feel his cold pale skin on mine and I was feeling immense heat where I was silently sitting.Though we were high in the sky, which meant the environment should be cooler as science had proved but I felt so hot inside. I wanted to pull my clothes off my miserable body.I looked around me and realized that I was the only one feeling that way. That's when I realized that the heat was coming from inside me. On the speakers, a female voice nnounced something that I really wasn't listening to.'Ladies and gentlemen, Bandasun Airlines welcomes you to Paris. The local time is 3:pm.

Rica's POVI spinned the revolving chair I was sitting on. It twirled me 360 degree round a single spot with a big unending smile on my face as it continued to twirl me. Then I immediately stopped it.I looked towards a mirror and I could see my face...ageing. My end was near. Any normal witch would worry about it and begin to search for longer days but not me. I didn't care. I didn't care if I died today because my mission was complete.Almost complete. I had a last thing to do before I could tag my mission as 'completed'. I stood up from the chair and looked around me. I was in a destroyed uncompleted building that was located in the outskirts of Olia.Everywhere was dark but my crystal ball gave out bright blue light that brightened everywhere. The doors of the building were old and rotten, and they dangled from their hinges like they were only attached to it by a bare string.The floors of the building were covered with rusted nails and bolts, dead leaves, infested planks of wood
