We had checked a mountain of books, but nothing about the dark realm and anything to reach there. My back was in pain. Burt was guarding the door. Though there was nothing to worry about and anything dangerous.
"Guys," I said with a smile.
"Did you find the book?" Elizabeth asked.
"Say yes, I'm starting to hate books," Silver made a face in disgust.
"Shouldn't we ask Burt? He's from the dark realm." I wiggled my brows.
"Why didn't we think this before?" Elizabeth got on her feet.
"Hello, Burt. We didn't introduce ourselves before." Elizabeth walked over toward him, "I'm Elizabeth," She extended her hand, "They are my friends. Silver and you know Emma,"
He smiled, "I can't help you. King won't approve of i
My feet carried me to her and I opened my arms, hugging her, "Mom, stop thinking too much. I am happy for you. What's making you think this?" I pulled back. Tears were rolling down her eyes. I lifted my hand to wipe her cheeks. Charles advanced and swiped his hand on her second cheek, "Mom," I grabbed her hand in mine, "I won't lie to you. You can detect it." She chuckled and nodded, "I hate that man who caused you so much pain." She opened her mouth but I cut her off, "I know Charles won't hurt you. No doubt." She nodded, eyes pooled with tears, "I need some time to accept him as part of my life. I have already accepted him as your husband. But..." I sighed, "He has to earn. The father's place in my life. I don't know how to explain." Her hand rested against my cheek, "I can scent your confusion." A small smile crawled over her cheek. "I really don't know how to accept him as my father figure in my life. I have no
"Hi, are you coming down? Or I should use magic to unlock the door. " Elizabeth banged on the door and shouted through the closed door. I stared at the pink mini dress that mom had chosen for me. It was designed by her. My hair was combed and looked unstyled. The make-up kit was untouched, "Is Silver with you?" I asked, "Do you want us to break the door, Em?" I heard silver. "He**, no! Girls. Just come in. I'm looking like a mess." I hurried over to the door and pulled it open. They stared at me. They weren't definitely in a good mood, but looking damn pretty in their pink dresses, "Mom purchased us sane dresses," I rolled my eyes. "She designed," Silver corrected me. "Thank goodness, she's fine." Elizabeth heaved a long sigh, placing her hand over her ches
When I opened my eyes, tears rolled down my skin reaching the shell of my ears. Two soft hands wiped them. "He's alive, just not present at the moment," My head turned, hearing his deep voice. His icy cold eyes met mine. They wouldn't lie to me. I hadn't felt him fully disappear. I pushed myself up in a sitting position. I didn't notice Elizabeth was holding my hand. I tried to tug my hand but she tightened her grip. "It's not good." I pulled my hand again. "You need to calm down." Silver said, sitting on the edge of the mattress. "I'm okay," I pulled my hand and felt myself drained, dizzy, angry, and mad. Her head shook in disapproval, she grasped my hand more tightly. Tears welled in my eyes, "I have a feeling, I'm turning into a mad person. " I said, looking into my mother's eyes.
I was running in the muddled of dark woods. Wolves were running as a pack. An order snarled by a powerful personality reached my ears. I began my pace again, away from them. They were chasing. My own whimper and squeal reached my ears. I woke up with a jolt. Two strong hands held me by my shoulders and shook me to grab my attention. My forehead was covered with sweat. My eyes turned out of the window. The dawn seemed to have passed hours ago. Footsteps shuffled in the room. Jack and Cassidy strode in the room. I pushed myself in a sitting position, "What happened?" Jasper asked, still holding my shoulders. "I should ask this to you too. Did I get late?" I looked around for the clock. "You were screaming. I panicked." Vanessa's dreadful voice reached my ears.
The day started cool and dewy. I pulled the blanket closer to my body. The sun rays made the birds boisterous. It broke my sleep. I walked over to the window. A smile appeared on my face. Silver and Elizabeth were running with Jasper, Carlos, and Daniel. The portals had really helped them to end the distance. Another voice reached my ears, "My mother is shouting at someone." I didn't give it a second thought and turned to the door. I hurried down the stairs. My feet flattered and I clasped the railing. His grey eyes turned to me. He smiled, "Good morning, pumpkin." He said, his eyes glinting with happiness. "Emma, breakfast will be ready soon. Go, get a shower." My mom said. It was just an excuse to send me away. I didn't move, just stared at
When Daniel pulled over the car, I stared at the mansion, there was mostly glasswork, large windows covered with black glass, "You're rich," I giggled. Drake shook his head smiling, "Charles shares are more expensive than our in the market." He said. I stared at him in confusion, "Shares! I don't know what you are talking about." I reached for the door and opened it, "Ain't they rich?" I asked in a whisper when she stepped out of the car behind me. "Our families are counted as billionaires. Relax!" Elizabeth smiled. "You're kidding." I looked back. Charles pulled his black BMW. He got out of the car, like a regal man, he rounded the car and opened the door for my mother. She climbed down the car, first revealing her red heels, the slit on her red dress, "My mom is fire,
My snappish increased. I stared at all the faces. I went back to the academy. Most relieving thing, I was in his villa in the room he assigned me, "Why am I here?" I asked myself. I wasn't in the mood for more lies. His Alpha-friends, Headmaster Donovan, and my family had occupied the space. Their gazes were on me. Silver and Mom were sitting close to me on the mattress but they weren't trying to touch me. Elizabeth was holding my hand and she smiled down at me, "You need rest." "I can't stay out of the academy for a long time. Why?" I asked. "It happened because the portal was destroyed," Alessandro asked Donovan. "They aren't completely destroyed." He replied. His expression stiffened. I squeezed Elizabeth's hand. Her sad gaze turned to me, "Y
The bangs on the door woke me. I slept late last night. All I was thinking about was my adventure in the Blue mountains. I was thinking in a positive way. That could be my last journey. I wiped my eyes. Once I was in better control of my emotions, I opened the door. Elizabeth outstretched her hands with a tray. I stared down at the French toasts, salad, and hot chocolate. "I know. you didn't sleep." She walked in the room when I didn't take the tray. "Have you changed your mind?" Silver asked, she was holding a white towel in her hand and wiping the sweat from her face. "No," I shook my head. "Then you're not getting it," Elizabeth pulled the train close to her stomach. I shrugged my shoulders and saunt
