My eyes were weary and heavy as I lay down on the bed, trying to recall where I was and what happened.The sound of someone crying broke into my thoughts and my head banged. I tried to force myself to open my eyes as I could sense that it was Ember crying but I couldn't.My heart was burning from the black magic in me and I could feel that it was more than I could handle.The sound of someone sobbing again distracted me and I opened my eyes. She was there, next to me, her head bent as she sobbed into her hands.I smiled and lifted my hands up to her hair."Hey, why are you crying?" I asked and she immediately lifted her head up in surprise.I smiled at her, trying to calm her down but she sobbed again as she stared at me. It made me wonder how long I've been unconscious and what exactly happened to me."You...how come?" She asked, stuttering.I smiled at her, happy to see her. Her eyes were red and swollen, her face puffy. It was obvious that she had been crying for a long time and it
I was about to relax when I suddenly heard footsteps inside my cave. The scent gave her away…it's Ember! I could see flashes from her light so I immediately used my power to turn off the light to cause a distraction. Almost immediately, I perceived another wolf with her… "Who might that be?" I asked myself. As if to answer my question, I heard Ryan's voice. "Oh shit!" I used my powers to also turn off his flashlight before running past them but Ember quickly saw me and began pursuing me, the others also joined in the pursuit. "I can't get caught like this…no!" I kept running aimlessly as I used my powers to cover up my scent but somehow, Ember still knew the direction I was running to "Fuck you damn silver wolf!" I decided to run back to the sorcery village, maybe Sally could save me. I ran with all my strength until I got into the sorcery village. It happened that the smell of black magic here doubled so I just blended into a tree. "We lost her!" I heard one o
Ember still insisted on bringing Lana here since she said Lana told her someone else might be able to heal me. I sat patiently waiting for Lana to arrive while Ember sat reassuringly beside me. "You're sure things would work out?" I asked her "It's Lana we're talking about right?" She asked as she gave me a glass of milk "Okay I hope so "I drank from my milk My heart was busy doing somersaults as I thought about what Lana would possibly say when she got here. I just hope everything will go well and this black magic will be able to leave my system. "Ohh…Sebastian" her bubbly voice called as she came in with her husband. "You're finally awake…" Doctor Jordan said as he extended his hand for a handshake. "Yes…" I took his hands while Ember went into details with Lana. "Lana he's been able to wake up, how do we get the black magic out of his system?" "Remember when I told you he needs to meet with Rihanna? She's the one who did it and she's the o
My eyes lingered on Ember's unconscious face. Her lips were pale and bluish and her palms cold. I would've thought she'd died if not for her chest which kept rising and falling as she breathed. “Why are hands this cold?” I muttered, trying to warm them up by exhaling on them, trying to use the warmth from my mouth to heat them up a little. The sun cast a golden yellow light in the room. It's as if the sun knew my worries and was gloomy too. I once more looked at Ember, I truly admire her bravery and sincerity. She went as far as letting someone who wanted her dead to heal by drinking her blood… “How can I stop loving a softie like you?” I smiled, brushing her hair to the side. As much as I felt gratitude towards Ember, I couldn't help but doubt Rihanna's intentions. Why would she suck on Ember knowing fully well that Ember was with a child? That truly looks fishy to me. But then, like Lana said; “there is a purpose for everything” so let me trust Lana's
Shit! Shit! Shit!Everything I planned just went down the drain all because of that darned witch, Ember. How on earth was she able to wake up after I took almost half of her blood? I made sure that as I sunk my teeth inside her, I took more than what I needed because I knew how strong she was and yet she woke up?At the worst timing for that matter! How could she ruin everything?!I just had him..right at the tip of my finger, he was just about to kiss me and go further when she walked in.I cursed again and let out a low groan as I still knelt on the floor where I was before she left with Sebastian.What on earth was her deal with him anyway? She seemed so obsessed with him because how does someone already pale and looking like she might die anytime soon walk from where she was to this cave all because she wants to go take him from me?Ever since she came, there have been so many disputes between Sebastian and me.I sighed and stood up from the ground, cleaning my knee as I stood.S
I opened my eyes slowly to find Sebastian sleeping beside me. A slight smile escaped my lips as I saw the folded skin on his forehead. I slowly used my hands to straighten out the folded skin but his eyes flared and opened “You’re awake?” He sat up and placed a kiss on my forehead “Yap…” I said “And I'm strong now…” he smiled “Alright let me get you breakfast” he said “Breakfast in bed? Wait you prepared it yourself” he nodded “But wait you were asleep a while ago” I looked at him with wide eyes as the maids brought the breakfast. “I woke up before you tho…” he came to sit beside me “Aww! Thank you baby” I took a bite from the bacon and a smile crept up my lips. “That's nice…” I placed a kiss on his lipsAs we ate our breakfast, the tension between us kept growing. His eyes never left mine all through, his eyes lingered with unspoken feelings and I was already getting hot under his gaze. I knew he wanted to talk about Rihanna's actions the night bef
I've never felt so happy standing closer to Rihanna than I did right now. Her smile and laughter were so genuine, she acted so genuine, friendly and nice that it wasn't for Sebastian's body being corrupted with Black magic, we wouldn't have been able to know if she did anything bad to us.I felt so relieved and happy. Maybe this was the mission Lana was talking about, her mission was probably to make Sebastian and I get closer to each other and it was working.Ever since she pushed open our bedroom this morning, Sebastian has been so loving, especially since she told him that she knew that we were meant for each other."You're smiling brightly," Her voice interrupted me and I turned to face her, my smile spreading."Of course I am. I'm just so happy."She smiled and patted my hair lightly. I felt a little tug and it felt like a strand of my hair left my hair but it was probably her nails.Ever since she tampered with black magic, the repercussion was her nails and the colour of her e
I looked at Rihanna intently waiting for her reply. She kept switching glances as she tried to avoid the question “Can we go dancing tonight?” She asked, clearly trying to avoid the question “Rihanna, I'm not a baby who can easily get distracted by crazy stuff like dancing. I asked you a question, why don't you want to tell me?” I asked “I heard Lana told you not to bug me about that…” “That was when you were still crazy but now we're becoming close and you're becoming more open, you can tell me” I urged but she didn't budge “I promise not to let anyone know about you telling me…” “Not even Seb?” She asked and I nodded. Her eyes still held doubt but I saw a glimpse of tiredness in her eyes…if I just pressed on, she might spill. “Rihanna tell me, tell me please…I'll do whatever you want if you tell me” She finally gave a faint sigh and said; “Well…you are…” “Hey babe what are you doing here?” Sebastian cut in from behind us. I sighed in frustr
