CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT
Diana
EVERYTHING SEEMED TO have happened in seconds. One moment, they were preparing to attack, and in the next, the zombies attacked.
After making sure her friends and other civilians were safe back at camp, safeguarded by some soldiers, Diana joined other soldiers in preparing for the zombies' arrival.
Their snarls and hisses were coming from the bounding trees across the vampire camp.
The vampires rounded the weapons trunks and selected their preferred weapons. Diana grabbed twin swords since Seraph was still in the vampire kingdom.
She waited, plagued highly with apprehension as she listened to the sounds of their approaching footsteps.
Her eyes met Aiden's worried ones as he tried to send her a reassuring nod which did nothing to boost her plunging morale.
It didn't take long for the zombies to rea

"King Aiden of all vampires, it is an honour to be in your presence. I have heard so much about you and I must say that I am not disappointed," Gary said, gesturing to the zombies laying out all around the field."I see my reputation precedes me. You and I know that you haven't come here for a chat."Save both of our time and tell me what you want, Dr Young," Aiden responded in a very blank tone, his facial expression giving nothing away."Oh, please, your Highness, call me Gary. Let's not kid ourselves here, you know what I want."It is in both of our benefits that you hand it over and I will take my men and go on my merry little way," Gary demanded with a wide grin."And if I don't?" Aiden tested and Diana knew what was coming.As she expected, he busted into a fit of giggles. "You are so funny, your Highness. But if you don't-

DianaNO MATTER HOW hidden something might seem to be, life would find a way to bring it to light.More than half of Diana's life had been spent waiting for her other half, the one who would complete her in every way.Learning about soul mates for the first time; filled Diana with so much longing that her young heart couldn't comprehend.All her young self-desired was to feel the love from that one special person. She recalled late nights with Debora, fantasizing about a person she had never seen.She would wonder what their hair colour would be, their eye colour and what they would sound like. Either way, she would have loved them more than life itself.But that was three years ago, and now she was too damaged to feel so much love for another person when she couldn't even love herself.Still, that didn

Diana SHE WAS DREAMING of green land and grasses that grew up to her knees. The smell of salt was in the air with a slight chill attached to it. An addicting rush of calmness enveloped her entire being, pulling her deeper into the depths of a different dimension. The smell of nature tickled her nose pleasantly, luring her further. This was everything she wanted; a world, peaceful and devoid of violence. She felt light. Too light. She knew she was in a dream as her reality wouldn't be this peaceful. She let her mind lead her to an unknown place as she savoured the serene feeling coursing through her veins at that moment. The gentle wind blew some strands of black hair into her face as she sunk deeper. She heard some familiar voices, sounding like a faraway echo in her mind but ignored them. She would not le

Diana THE MIRROR GIVES a reflection of oneself while the eyes see pictures of other people but never of oneself. Diana wanted to think she was staring into a mirror but that was not the truth. Staring into the same forest green eyes she had, chilled Diana to the bone. The figure in front of her had her eyes, face, and every other feature she had. What differentiated the figure from Diana was the dress the figure had on. While Diana had her combat clothes on, the figure wore a sparkly white dress with no shoes. The figure had a flower crown on her head. "I know for a fact that you weren't born dumb, Diana," the figure stated in an amused voice. "You are… me?" Diana blurted dumbly, sounding as much confused as she was and the Wolf let out a wolfy laugh. "I am you as much as you are me. We are the same and so is Luna," the fig
Defenders of the Crown CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE
Rudolph WAITING WAS NEVER one of Rudolph's strong points. Carefully watching an unconscious Diana as nurses and doctors went in and out of her room drove him closer to snapping. Diana would always say he had no violent bone in his body but the next doctor who would go into and come out of her room, leaving her in the same condition would get it from him. It hurt, being in that room and seeing her like that. She was hooked up to machines and wires. It pained him to see her so pale and lifeless. Weak was a word that would never have been associated with Diana… until now. They returned to the vampire kingdom a while back, much to Robin's displeasure. Robin wanted to take Diana away but Rudolph argued that they didn't have the resources to keep her alive. The fact that she was alive was nothing short of a miracle. If the bullet had moved further upwards, i

Diana "SOME THINGS CAN NOT be helped, no matter how much you want to," a voice spoke from beside Diana, causing her to open her eyes. She had no idea when or how she fell asleep, between thinking and beating herself up. She woke up a few minutes ago to the sound of leaves crunching. Diana sat up, giving her attention to the goddess. What would she have to gain if she didn't? She only felt her pain but now, it felt like she could feel the pain of her other parts; Luna and the goddess. Maybe it was time for her to understand them too. "As a goddess, it is a crime to interfere with the lives of mortals. I told your ancestors that a time would come when I would come and fight along with my people. "That time is closer than you think. A greater evil is coming. An evil, even greater than the undead. An evil that would consume my
