As I walked across campus to my house, ready to start the weekend, my phone vibrated. I immediately hit the answer button when I saw Cole's name. He's calling me to come over to his house. It seems like he's in the middle of something, which is why he asked me to come over. It only takes a few seconds as I walk to the front of the house and knock on the door before Cole opens it. "Hey." He steps aside with a beaming smile. "Hey." I walk in and he closes the door behind me. "Why do I have to be here?" I followed him into the living room and saw Taylor sitting on the couch. "Hey, Ray!" He smiled and greeted me. "Oh, hey, Taylor," I said as I looked between the two guys in confusion. "So, I was thinking about what you were saying," Cole began, "about me working on my powers, so I was thinking, how about we do a little training?" "Training?" I asked looking at him and he nodded enthusiastically. "Okay... but why am I here?" Cole grinned and grabbed a small cloth bag and put it on
I felt trapped in the middle of an incredible power struggle between Cole and Taylor. The flames controlled by the two of them were an awesome sight, but it soon turned into a real threat as they began to grow and get closer to me. The fire in front of Cole was receding, but on the other side, near Taylor, it was still raging fiercely. Even though Cole tried to control the situation, I felt more and more trapped in the shrinking circle of flames around me. "You better hurry before this forest burns down," Taylor shouted in an alarmed tone. The fire was getting closer and the heat was becoming unbearable. Although the fire near Cole was well under control, the fire near Taylor was still raging fiercely, and I felt the heat getting unbearable. I saw Taylor watching me from the side, and his narrowed eyes gave the impression that he was planning something. I panicked as the flames began to penetrate the circle around me. I tried not to show my fear, even though the temperature conti
Slowly, he walked over to me and held out his hand for me to hold onto. He pulled me to my feet and placed me in front of him, his hands on my shoulders as he leaned forward and I could feel his breath in my ear. He starts to whisper something, but it's too quiet to be heard by Cole, who is still sitting on the ground with a puzzled expression on his face. "What did he say?" Cole asks curiously, but none of us give an answer. "How is it, is it okay?" Taylor asked me, and I pursed my lips together, but I nodded my head. "Can I hold something?" I said in a nervous tone. "Yeah." He took my hand and put it on his arm. "Just squeeze me and don't worry about your nails, okay?" "Okay." Then I took a deep breath. "What are you guys doing?" Cole asked, but again none of us spoke. As soon as Taylor's other hand turned into a demonic claw, he dug one of his nails into the skin of my arm. "Hey, what the hell are you doing?" I glanced over as Cole asked frantically, his eyes widening. Tay
"You don't have to fly me back," I chuckled as my feet touched the ground of the forest, and he landed there, his wings disappearing behind him. "It's risky because it's too early." I looked up at the darkening sky, it was a little late now, but still."It's all right, we live above the forest," he said with a grin and pulled his shirt over his head.He took my hand and led me to the side of my house, and when I came out of the trees, I saw someone waiting on my terrace. It took me a moment to figure out that it was Darren."Darren?" I called out as I approached him, my hand still clasped in Cole's, and his head looked up at me."H-hey," he said as I approached."What are you doing here?" I asked in a puzzled tone."I - um, I wanted to talk to you... Your mom said you were out, so I thought I'd wait here." I could hear the seriousness in the way he was talking, and I saw him take a look at Cole as well."I'll go then," Cole cut in."Text me when you get home, okay?""Okay," he smiled,
"I don't know, do you think it's too much? Or is the color a bit much?" As I stood in front of the mirror, I let my eyes observe every detail of the elegant dress reflected there. My body was gently embraced by the metallic silver Channel brand dress, creating an alluring silhouette. Delicate spaghetti straps crisscrossed the shoulders, adding a feminine touch to the whole look. The revealing back of the dress shows the shape of my backside, creating a mysterious appeal. Every curve and detail of this dress has been meticulously designed as if to create a living work of art on my body. "I think it's beautiful," my mom said as I stood in front of the dressing room mirror. "And I'm sure Cole will think the same." She grinned as she raised both eyebrows. Then I spun around once more and caught a glimpse before smiling. "Okay, let's pick this one." I stepped into the dressing room to take the dress off and put it back on the hanger before quickly changing into my casual clothes. I move
For a second I was frozen, and then the sound of Irish's voice pulled me out of my reverie. "It's okay," Irish said with a smile and moved to let the boys in. Here I tried to be casual, as if I didn't know them. It's so hard to do that. Honestly, I had no idea if the girls were familiar with the two demons. "So who are these lovely ladies?" Chris asked, his eyes falling on me as he put his hands on the table. His smirk showed that he already knew who I was, and it was clear from his expression that he was interested in playing games with me. "This is Mandy, Jane, and Rayline," Irish said, pointing at each girl and me, while Kody looked me up and down. "Hmm, you look familiar to me, Rayline, have we met before?" he asked me in a meaningful way and I swallowed. Whether he was pretending not to know me or just playing mind games like Chris, I could never tell. "Uh, no... I don't think we did." I fiddled with my fingers as he tilted his head. "Are you okay? Your face looks a little
He let go of his grip and Chris fell to the ground, gasping for breath as Jesse watched from above. Out of nowhere, Kody suddenly appeared behind Jesse, ready to strike, but Jesse moved more quickly than I could have ever imagined and caught the demon by the wrist. "Nice try, huh?" He reached up and spun around to deliver a hard punch to poor Kody's stomach, throwing him back a few feet as he screamed in pain. Then Chris stood up and lunged at Jesse, who stepped aside to easily dodge the attack before grabbing Chris' arm and twisting it. All I could hear was the snap of his arm as it slipped out of position, and Chris screamed in pain. "Cole may hesitate to hurt you, but I won't," he said through clenched teeth. It was the first time I had ever seen this side of Jesse that was so terrifying. He let go and straightened up to look at Kody, who was now sitting on the ground in a pitiful state. "I suggest you guys get the hell out of here before I get really mad at you." Wasting no ti
"I can't believe you asked me to do this," I said as I got to my feet. I caught a glimpse of a vase of pink carnations mixed with pink roses as he pushed the couch aside to make a space on the living room floor with a smile. "Your mom really liked this, huh?" I said, pointing to the vase. "Yeah, it was her favorite. It means 'never-ending love.'" He said and I smiled slightly as he straightened up. "That's why I'm her personal gardener, to make sure they don't die," he added with a shrug, and I giggled. "And she doesn't like the white ones either. She keeps telling me to throw them away," he shrugged, his tone tinged with curiosity. After he finished moving his table, he walked over and grabbed my hand, but stopped. When I noticed, it turned out he was looking at the scratches and bruises from the previous day. "What happened?" he asked worriedly, pulling my hand up to look at it. "Oh, I - uhh, I fell on my way home from college yesterday," I said, trying to let out a fake laugh
