Chaotic was the only word I could use to describe my morning. It was easy to wake up but getting ready on time was a challenge. Saiora was first to hit the shower and then Rachel followed. I kid you not she was in there for thirty minutes. I couldn't understand what a Vampire had to do in the shower for so long. That led to me taking a five-minute shower and having to skip out on applying lotion to my body. This was not what I had in mind for my first day of school. We had all left the dorm together at about seven-thirty. We were on our way to the Dining Hall to eat breakfast.
The air was quite crisp and chilly. It was a refreshing punch to my nostrils to inhale and exhale the early morning air that smelt a lot like wet leaves and dirt. The cold air was impacting me so much that I had formed constant goosebumps on my skin that did not want to go away. I only had my drop shoulder sweater on as a top layer which didn't quite do it. I had forgotten that my vessel wasn't as stro
Vivienne walked into the classroom. She was entangled in a conversation with someone who was slightly behind her. I could tell she was a fellow Witch. "Ren," she said my name with much enthusiasm. "You take Biology?" Vivienne and her friend selected the two seats that were in front of Rachel and me. "Yup," I nodded. "I'd much rather spend the whole night studying about the Human Anatomy than Chemical compounds," I was startled by the sudden response of Mr. Anodell, our Biology teacher. "Well, you made an excellent choice, I'm truly flattered Ren," I displayed a shy smile. My voice wasn't that loud so how did he even hear what I had said? Besides that, how had he been informed about my name? "I'm Mr. Anodell," he clasped his hands. "I will be your Biology teacher for this year and next year. Your last year of Highschool and no we won't only be studying the Human Anatomy. We will be looking at every bone and muscle tissue of each Supernatural group. That's one piece of knowled
Dean towered over me.I had to raise my head at an angle just to look at him. "It looked like you were struggling so I thought I should help you," he handed the book to me and placed his hands into the pockets of his pants. I bit my bottom lip and smiled to display my gratitude. "Thanks, you didn't have to.""I know," he gulped and presented a small smile."I'm Ren," I extended my arm forward as an invitation for him to shake my hand."Dean," his hands were as cold as a tiled floor in winter but for some reason, it didn't bother me. I seemed to be pulled into a gradual trance each time our hands shook together slowly. This union of touch between us felt like it was the first step of something big that whatever our touch-activated was just the start of an a
I had returned to my dorm room in one piece. I instantly fell into a slumber as soon as I laid down on my bed. Saiora and Rachel weren't in the dorm when I had gotten back. I set the alarm clock for one hour which was basically nothing. I had school work to do after and I didn't want to sleep too late.The good thing about not having a phone was that I could kind of avoid insomnia. Without my phone, there was nothing else keeping me up other than my thoughts, and well- on a usual night my busy mind would stay rambling for about one hour before I'd get to dose off.I had the intention of calling my Dad today. I'd probably do so before heading to dinner with Aunt Celeste and her family.Ding, ding, ding.The ringing of the alarm clock caused
We had all been seated for the dinner. It honestly wasn't as awkward as I had imagined. Yumena's father was quite easy to talk to despite his contrasting cold exterior. The low temperatures in his skin were also the coldest I had ever encountered in a Vampire. Viktor had an intense formidable gaze that could incite fear in anyone and it didn't help that he didn't smile either. He had platinum blonde hair just like Yumena and I could see where she got her aspect of power from but she didn't seem to hold the same confidence she'd usually have in front of her father. Having Aunt Celeste present made the affairs of the dinner much simpler. It meant that Viktor and Aunt Celeste could fill up the room with their stories of how they met and what love is like when you aren't with your pairing. Basically, this whole soulmate circumstance usual
Vivienne opened the door using the will of her magic and words. Her footsteps to the path of nature were the only prominent sound in the room. I was the last one to walk through the door that slightly hovered above the ground. The door closed on its own behind me and disappeared from sight. The sounds of owls hooting and the shadows of tall, plump trees filled my senses. I could even tell that there was water nearby due to the trickling stream silently hitting rocks. The moon shone above us, glowing above the trees. I couldn't help but be drawn to its milky light. I gulped not knowing what to expect tomorrow. Its full face would be on display, revealing all truths that were hidden behind the light of the sun.I was still in a state of surprise and relief that I had not ruined the teleportation spell. It was probably the most impressive spell I had don
I was in the Garden of Wisdom, seated on a cemented bench by myself. The Moon would only rise at ten to nine and I figured it would be a good idea to get some homework done instead of doing who knows what. It's not like I could scroll through Instagram for a few hours or watch Youtube videos. My ears were also missing the sounds of alternative R&B and indie music. I regretted not investing in an mp3 player before coming here.It would've been good to know that they were going to confiscate my phone and other electronics away. I'm pretty sure Dad left that information out on purpose to get me to live a life of no devices.Most of my attention was on what I was writing in my notebook but I could sense that someone was walking to my table. "Hey," he greeted. I hadn't directly communicated with him or heard his voice in a few days and I kind of wanted
This was only the beginning and mild dizziness and nausea struck me. I urgently needed to isolate myself. The fireplace emitted heat that seemed to be transferring to the feeble layers of my skin. This must've been the moon playing tricks with me.I could hear chatter around me but it all sounded distorted as if I was underwater. My mouth tried to produce words but all I could distinguish was my voice but my mind couldn't decipher anything concrete. I wasn't even in a state of mind where I could think about the words I wanted to so clearly comprehend.I used the armchair as a support system to stand up. I felt so light but so heavy at the same time. I just wanted to lay down to recalibrate my energy.Concepts of gravity and time felt so foreign to me as I treaded with instability. I made sure to hold onto innate objects throughout my hazy journey to isolation. I let my intuition lead me to an unoccupied darkroom in the cabin. I let myself cascade onto the bed. M
I found myself running in the darkness of the woods. There were still dim fairy lights casting some light from above. No amount of moonlight could shine through the dense leaves of the trees. I didn't know why I kept running but it was as if I was being guided to a destination. Was it a destination the moon was leading me to?I slowed down my footsteps and panted with a feeling of a drought in my mouth. I had no idea where I was or where I was going.There was some movement in the trees and high-pitched voices in the air. I looked up to see some Fae sitting on a branch together. It certainly was a sight to see. Never in my life had I seen pencil-sized people with wings and even though her face was tiny I recognized one of the Faes as the girl who had a human boyfriend who wanted to expose her.The Fae looked down at me and flew away as a collective. They must've been startled by my lone wandering in the woods on the full moon. Their wings remained translucent ju
