After finishing my breakfast, I hurried up the stairs. I went for the closet. I frowned, finding no suit in there. How could they make such a mistake? I'll deal with it later. I picked a creamy skirt and a pink blouse and a matching coat with my skirt. I walked over to the bathroom door. After dolling up, I checked my reflection in the mirror. The outfit was perfect. I put my hair down and gave waves to the end of them. And a little make won't harm my skin. "Ember," I heard my brother. I grabbed my white purse and headed out of the room. I climbed down the stairs slowly, watching my steps in my high heels. "I'm ready." Drake was wearing a brown suit, looking handsome like model-businessman, his rare eyes were highlighted. Anyone from first glance recognized us as brother and sister. He grabbed his laptop bag and some files. He smiled at me while motioning at the door. "Can I hold them?" I already extended my hand to take them from his hands.
Fear crept into my bones. My eyes darted around but I wasn't particularly seeing things around me. I was stuck in the horrible image of my head. "Relax, relax. There's nothing." His strong arms were curled around me, my cheek was pressed tight to his chest. I inhaled his earthy scent. "Thank you for saving me. I thought you wouldn't look at me in the meeting hall. I was going to die there. I wasn't sleeping. I don't know how it happened." I sobbed against his chest. Horror was making my hands tremble. Worry entered his golden eyes. "You don't need to thank me. Now..." He drew his face close, his nose touched the tip of my nose. "Your fear is giving them strength. Are you getting me, Vida? " He asked. I nodded my head. It took me several minutes to push the fear away. But deep down I was frightened I would be trapped there again. "What's happening to me? I'm seeing things a human would never imagine. Is something wrong in my head?" I a
We watched the movie with amusement in our eyes. I went to bed after watching the full movie. It didn't take me long to fall asleep. I heard many voices in the kitchen. A smile crawled on my face and I rushed the rest of the way into the kitchen, yelling happily. "I missed you so much." "My sister!" She opened her arms and took me in a tight hug. "I missed you like hell. Luke told me about your half-Ceremony. Show me." She pulled herself back, placing her both hands on my shoulders. Excitement played in her eyes. Gleefully, I opened my palm. I was a little nervous too, but not from her reaction. "Wao!" She swiped her thumb near it. "Does it hurt?" She asked, worriedly. "No," I shook my head. "I'm so happy for you. Congratulations, Em." "Thanks, Ev. You're staying, right?" I asked. Her face fell and she shook her head. "I came with Luke." I looked around for him. "Where's he?" I asked, confusingly
A hand touched my arm and I flinched away from him in shock and fear. My eyes met his fire-flashing eyes. His hand wrapped around my upper arm. He pulled me behind him. His arm was curling around me securely. "What are they?" The hair along the back of my neck stood to attention in the warning. "Fucking piece of shits don't die." I heard someone shouting in exasperation. "They taste like venom." Another shout filled the tense air. I heard loud shouts of fear, many comments over these things, and complaints that they weren't dying. I couldn't peel my eyes away from the black hole. Fear gripped my bones when I saw a shadow coming out of it. It terrified me more when my eyes lifted up at the sky. The sun was covered with the darkest clouds. Am I in my nightmare? After staring at it I realized they were shadows covering the whole sky. Fear raced through me. "Darkice, they're not clouds." I pointed my finger at the sky.
I stood up out of shock. I darted my eyes around and there was no one in the room. It was only me. How could he suggest it to me when he wasn't around me or in my room? "How did you do that?" I asked him, still running my eyes around. 'Your eyes.' "Explain, please? How are my eyes helping you?" 'I can see what you're seeing." I heard him. My eyes widened like saucers. "And what else have you seen? " I was in the shower and right now wrapped in a towel. My cheeks heated. 'I won't until you turn eighteen.' "I didn't mean that. I..." I squeezed my eyes. I wouldn't mind if he would see me. 'You don't wanna get late.' He reminded me. "Yes," I plucked the black dress and rushed to the bathroom again. I paced out of the room with a smile. It's a beautiful black midi dress, my hair is down, a little makeup like usual, natural pink lips. I didn't hear him after that in my head. I took the stairs. "Good morn
I got on my feet but I couldn't move. I stared at his back in shock. I felt a soft touch on my arm. "Are you okay, Em?" Sisily asked. "I brought you this. Do you want something else?" Aidan asked us. "You don't need to do this, Aidan." Dejectedly, I slammed down. "She doesn't look ok." Aidan got in his seat. "What happened? You can share." Sisily muttered. "You know what's happening?" I leaned closer. "Everyone knows. The Alpha king and his betas are going to the Dark World. No one was injured. But we don't know what the future has in store for us." Aidan muttered, resting his arms on the table and he leaned forward. "No one knows that, Aidan." She said. "Ember," I turned, hearing my name. My smile broadened seeing him. "Dad," I jumped on my feet and embraced him. "Congratulations," He kissed my head and patted my back. "Thanks. I thought you'd come the next day, I didn't even see Mother." I complained.
The relief I felt walking out of the headmistress's office turned into icy dread. My feet were slamming against the ground as I ran away without knowing where I would go. I kept running until my feet stopped near a familiar place. I have been here twice and it wasn't pleasant. I heard the leaves moving on my left side. I turned and saw him looking at me with his poker face. "You're crying." he tilted his head, and I couldn't ignore the tightening of his jaw. I hesitated but I forwarded and curled my arms around his middle. "Do you know?" I asked. His arm came around me. He lifted me off the ground. "You met my brother today?" He asked. I pulled my head back. "Did he tell you in your head? That's not fair. I don't have powers like you all. That doesn't mean you're going to treat me like this as if I don't exist." I sobbed, lowering my chin. "You're thinking too much." His fingers brushed on my cheeks and he tucked the locks o
He caught my hand as the warmth of his hand wrapped around me. We walked silently at some distance. He turned to another door. I thought it would be one of his friend's houses. We halted in the living room. Everything was dark in the house. 'It's his house.' I heard him in my head. My gaze snapped to him. I stared at him in complete and utter shock. His gaze was fixed ahead of him. "What do you mean?" I uttered in shock. 'His' He made me walk with him and we took the stairs. The stupid but very important machine of my body began to pound every time something shocking and surprising happened. My gaze darted around us. Everything was mostly black. I understood what he meant by him. "Dastien?" I asked. He nodded, still not peeling his gaze away from his path. He was so focused on whatever was running in his head that no one would say that he was romantic a few minutes ago. The main door wasn't locked, nothing was locked here. H
