I tried to scream but my vocal cords seemed to have already given up on me. In fact, my entire body seemed to slowly give up the fight, with each moment passing succumbing more and more into darkness.No, no no...“Please... Please...D-don’t h-hurt me...” I weakly begged since that was the only thing I could actually do while he only continued to drag me across the shore.“Now, now, Princess. Don’t be so impatient. You’ll see him soon enough.”Princess...“Where are you t-taking me and why d-do you keep calling me like t-that? And who is this guy y-you keep mentioning about?” I asked, lightly slurring while struggling to raise my chin up to look at his face. Unfortunately, it seemed so damn hard to do so.He simply chose to ignore all my questions and instead I felt him suddenly taking a halt, turning around to face me right before I felt another pair of hands curling around my wrists.“Wha-”“Shh, Princess. It will all end soon.”His voice seemed to grow farther and farther away, mak

BlakeMy entire body lightly trembled with every step I took, exhausted and extremely saddened all at the same time, after all that happened in these past few hours.Lately, it just seemed like every decision I took turned out to be the worst. All the damn time.What the hell was wrong with me? Why couldn’t I do a single damn thing right?Why did I have to hurt every single person I cared about?How could I be so goddamn stupid?My hands tightly gripped onto the end of the railing, pushing my wobbling body up at the top of the stairs, then, with slow steps I tiredly tried to make my way towards my room when suddenly, I felt a strong hand roughly gripping my arm and without even giving me the time to realize what was happening I was dragged inside a room and roughly slammed against the door, chaotically twisting all the thoughts inside my brain for a brief moment.Deep blue, livid oceans were staring right back into mine, making my breath hitch within my throat and my heart suddenly pi

I stared yet again for a few moments at the fiery big red symbol on my wrist, looking from every angle, stupidly trying to somehow understand it even though I obviously had no idea what the hell it was in the first place.It looked more like I had been marked with a hot branding iron...or something like that.“Is this...” I momentarily paused, nervously scratching with my fingernails over the irritated skin before finally asking,“Is this some kind of disease?”Gosh, this is seriously itchy...No answer. Again.Great. Just fucking great.I mentally muttered to myself, looking at a totally unmoving, seemingly shocked Azrael. He was in the exact same spot I'd left him moments ago, simply sitting at the edge of the bed when I decided to at least take a shower and get dressed.And now that I was done, I really wanted some answers. But since he wasn’t even moving a muscle, let alone speak, I decided that I will get them anyway, no matter from whom.So without any other hesitations I simply

All the Four Horsemen awakened, called by the violent screams of Death’s dying angelic force, the roar of an earth-shattering thunder foretelling their arrival. Ultimate destruction was brought upon the Earth as they all came forth, one by one.First, came out Conquer, riding a pure white horse, his shining blade victoriously twirling in the air, taking claim on all lands, forcing even the mightiest kings to submit to his own will...Second, War emerged from the pits of Eternal Fire, riding a fiery red horse, his cries of battle echoing across the seas, his blade dipping in the blood of the innocent shattered Peace, rivers of blood flooding the lands as all men started fighting against each other...Third, Famine crawled from the very depths of Hell itself, riding a black horse, thriving from the desperate screams of those in pain, turning into useless dust all sustenance on Earth...Fourth, Death descended from the thundering dark sky, riding a corpse-like pale horse, rightfully taki

He slowly, hesitantly turned the doorknob and I took a deep breath, moments before we finally went inside, looking at the grand imposing hall.Our footsteps echoed in unison on the marble floor as we slowly walked further in, gazing around like two strangers into our own home...It felt so relieving and yet so weird to be back in our own place...It’s been only two weeks yet it felt like it’s been years since I’ve lastly walked around in these all-too-familiar rooms.Lemon-scented detergent and cookies...My lips lightly curled up into a pleased smile, that same well-known scent filling up my nostrils as I took another deep breath, closing my eyes for a brief moment.Home sweet home...I mentally whispered, moments before a small sob suddenly tore through the peaceful silence, quickly drawing our attention and the moment we looked up, the only two persons we missed the most were now staring right back at us from the top of the stairs, looking like they’ve seen a ghost.“Oh god!” Rosie
