I stayed with Mateo for the whole day, assisting the doctor with the injection, and made my reports for the day to be sent to Marc. The annoying thing was that I had to cover my face every time someone came in.
But even if I had my back on them, people would still ask me, “Hey, you look really similar to the girl on TV this morning.” There were two nurses who asked me about it. As soon as the question came out, the doctor got interested in the topic as well.
“Really?” I acted surprised. No way would I reveal to anyone that I was in fact that girl.

The wolf stepped closer to me. Of course, I tried to step back. But my back hit the wall immediately and I have never felt more paralyzed while standing.I stared at the wolf’s grey eyes. Perhaps it was the fear, but I felt a sense of déjà vu as if I had seen those eyes somewhere.At that moment, I remembered what I had watched on the National Geographic channel. Pack animals like wolves would leave you be if you submit to them. So, I started to lower myself on the ground. My eyes never left the wolf, who looked at me… with amusement? I was not sure of myself. The only thing I was sure of was that I was not ready to die.
“I’m a hybrid,” he said nonchalantly.What?One second he was standing in front of me. Then the next his body just dematerialized into thin air. I did not even get the chance to blink before I felt a hand grabbed me from behind.He twisted my arm so that the knife fell to the floor and pulled my body to him. I gasped at the sudden movement, and to the freaky realization that the man just defied time and space.His arms locked my body in a tight embrace and I found myself unable to break free.“What are you doing?” I tried to use my body momentum, flinging my legs to the air and dropping all of my weight to push the man to the floor with my back. But his body would not budge. That was when I realize how honed and big his body was. All parts of his body were muscles.He sniffed my hair. “You smell really sweet,” he whispered.Then his nose touched the skin of my neck.
Something heavy was crushing my head, turning every ounce of my brain into a gooey jelly liquid. In another word, I got a massive headache as soon as I woke up. What’s worse was the searing pain coming from my left neck. As soon as that superstar slash werewolf slash vampire slash a being that cannot be tolerated with science and facts went away, I spent ten minutes staring at my plasma TV screen. I stared at the black nothingness that reflected myself looking like a lost lamb. I could not make sense of anything! I wanted so bad for that night to be a dream or a hallucination. Yes, I would take it better as a hallucination than reality. Because I was not ready to shed the logic I had been building my world with. But the pain in my neck was screaming to my brain that everything was real. And when I checked on the mirror that night, the shape and size of the bite looked exactl
Two thoughts ran through my mind that day. One, ‘Hot guys are always hot until they open their mouths.’ And two, ‘What a shame.’I scoffed at his question. “Are you intoxicated?”He looked at me with amusement. “Intoxicated by you.”Beelzebub! What a cheesy line!I rolled my eyes and pushed him to give me some distance. After taking off my goggles and rubber gloves, I gave him an unamused look. “Sir, I need you to get out of this lab.”He blinked at my stern voice. Tilting his head to the side, he looked at me as if he was sizing up his prey. I would not lie that his dark eyes were a little bit intimidating. Like Alexander’s eyes–Hey, brain! Why are you thinking about that man again?“I know what you want,” the man suddenly said.“We hardly even know each other and you already think you can read my mind?”“But we’ve met before,” he said to my surprise, “Well,
“You won’t believe what just happened to me just hours ago.” I sat next to Mateo on his bed, just chilling with him while watching the blond bob-haircut woman on the news. We were waiting for any signs of side effects after the administration of the daily dosage. I was supposed to observe him for only ten minutes, repeat the process to other clinical patients, and submit the report to Marc. As soon as I finished my round, I went back to Mateo’s room because I wanted to say goodbye to him before I went to my afternoon class. But when Mrs. Russo saw me, her smile immediately bloomed and she told us, “I’ll take a walk for a moment. You two enjoy yourselves.” She ended up ‘taking a walk’ for a couple of hours. And since Mateo c
Before I could blink for the third time that night, the emo models –I refused to call them vampires –in front of me had disappeared into thin air. A huge gush of wind blew past me, almost knocking me down butt first on the street.Instinctively, I turned to my back to see what had flown past me. A few meters ahead, I saw the emo models suddenly appeared just like that and clashed themselves with the wolves. Sharp teeth gnawed against white pale skins. Blood burst out and littered the street with red liquid.I stood behind the scene, still frozen to my spot. Whenever I blinked, the scene changed drastically. One moment I saw an emo model being bitten on the arm by a bla
“WhaaaaAAAAA!” Before I could finish my question, gravity had left my body.You know that feeling you get when you ride a rollercoaster? That was exactly how I felt. My stomach churned with tingling sensations as my feet dangled in the air. For support, I grabbed the collar of the man holding me in bridal style.When I had my eyes on his figure, my jaw dropped.Behind him, a huge pair of majestic white wings spread like a glorious white flag in the night sky. Yes, white flag. Just go along with it, would you? By now, you should have known that my brain is messed up
The mansion was creepy. It looked like the mansion from The Haunting of Hill House but creepier. It had vines strewn all over the pillars and walls. The bricks and concretes were covered in moss. Dead leaves piled up on the empty and dry garden.It was horrifying.I flinched when I saw the wings retracted to the angel’s back. Renald ran inside the mansion ahead of us. The door of the mansion just suddenly opened without anyone behind it.Creepy.The angel walk
