I was Astonished. I couldn't understand the cause of it. I took a napkin from my car and wiped it off. The thought of going to tell Rebecca came to my head, but I thought against it instantly. She was already worrying about Mirabel. I would just be an addition to her problem. I didn't want that. After concluding to suck it up, I entered my car and started it. I was certain it was nothing. ***** Ken's POV I stared at those remorseful eyes as she approached me, but that didn't take away the grimace I had on my face. Mirabel was probably feeling guilty due to how I denied all her allegations. I was a coward, I had to admit. I should have owned up to what I had done, but I didn't want her to see me as a monster. She could hate me all she wanted, but I didn't want to be a beast to her. She was the only person who didn't see me as one. As I brushed past her, it felt like I was being poked in my heart by a needle. The universe was surely testing me. I kept seeing her everywhere even tho

My eyelids felt heavy as I opened them. The brightness of the room attacked them and I shut them back again. After some time, I opened my eyes once more and looked around.It took me almost a minute to figure out where I was. The drip fixed in my hand and the clothes I was putting on, made me realize I was at the hospital.It was then I remembered I had fainted. The door to the ward opened and Rebecca walked in. She looked drained. It wasn't hard to tell from the dark circles that had formed under her eyes and how she had suddenly aged overnight. I instantly felt bad for her. This was the reason I didn't tell her about the nosebleed that morning“My God Mirabel, you are awake. I was so worried about you”. I watched as tears gathered in her eyes. "Are you alright now?”Apart from the throbbing pain I felt in my head, I was doing perfectly well."I'm fine mum” I tried to speak without groaning in pain because the pain I felt was excruciating.The moment those words left my lips, the doo

Austin's POV.It was hard to take lectures and at the same time, think hard about something else. The news was everywhere. A girl passed out in the foyer. That girl was Mirabel and I couldn't stop thinking about her.I wanted to see her but I was drawn between staying and not going because I didn't want her to get the wrong idea. And actually going to know how she was feeling.“Are you even listening?" Derek asked, snapping me back from my thoughts“The lecturer is teaching, why the fuck would I listen to you?"“You are not listening to any of us"I sighed "True. “What's the problem?"“I feel suffocated. I'm leaving" I couldn't stand it anymore. I was going to go and see her. I pretty much damned all the consequences.I left class and so did Derek. I could hear his footsteps behind me, running to meet my fast strides.“Okay what was that all about?" he asked.“If you weren't so sure, why did you come with me?"“I was curious and that class is boring as hell. Talking to you was an esc

Kira's POVI watched as Rebecca's lips curved into a smile. I didn't know what the amusement was all about until she parted her lips and announced. “The doctor said you are free to go"“So soon? I thought he said I needed to stay for another week or so?"“Well apparently, the nurse ran some tests and realized nothing is wrong with you after all"I was taken aback. No wonder I haven't been feeling any pain in my head lately. But how was that possible? It felt too good to be reality. Then I remembered Ken and his promise to heal me. But he didn't even do anything. We talked throughout his stay with me. Not that I was expecting him to lay his hand on my head like a pastor or something. I just didn't see him do anything.“This is great news. So I am not dying after all" I squealed and Rebecca frowned at me."You weren't dying. The doctor just said you should slow down the stress and all”“That's great, so when am I leaving"?“The doctor should be here any moment from now. They did say I s

Ken's POV.“What's this I'm hearing about you and Christine?" I asked Xavier.He sighed as he leaned back on the couch. “Mirabel told you I took her?"“Of course she did. Did you?"“What am I supposed to do with her? She left my house that night. I have nothing to do with her disappearance"“And I don't get what sort of funny relationship you are having with her. You are the one who's always concerned about the balance of nature. Why are you messing around with a human?"“She's just a fling. But we both know whatever's going on between you and Mirabel is more than that"“Of course it is. I don't see her as a fling”"“That's not the point"“Well keep your opinions to yourself" I warned him. And he stopped talking" I met with Marcus” I blurted out and watched as Xavier's eyes widened in shock."What did he do?”"Nothing. Turns out, he isn't here for us. He is here to start up an army”"What?“ Xavier asked, staring at me in disbelief. "How does he intend to do that?”"Turn as many peopl
