Myra
“So, how was the party?” Andrew asked us the next day. After everyone else had left for training. I steadily looked at the carpet rather than at him while Eric muttered a non-committal reply. “Did...something happen?” My head snapped up. His gaze was fixed on me. I gulped and shook my head despite wanting to tell him.
“Nothing,” Eric muttered once again. My eyes widened as my gaze flickered to him. He looked unhappy, which was obvious from his clenched jaw and scowl. Andrew nodded, not lingering on the matter.
“What did Celie have to say?” he said as he clasped his hands and rested them under his chin and rested his elbow on an open book on the desk that looked older than me. The huge mahogany desk was strewn with papers and books, which is a usual sight. His study had a more modern look than the library, but some ess
I am actually enjoying writing this. Hope you are enjoying reading this as well :)
Myra Despite my wariness and unwillingness, Akira trotted towards the direction. The scent thickened and enveloped my senses like a warm blanket. I tried my best to not succumb to the pull, but who could fight against nature? Soon, I was standing a few feet away from a tree under which my mate was slouched. Under the milky light of the waning moon, he looked paler. Why was he here? And sitting like this? Was he hurt? I scoffed at the thought because other than silver, I haven’t heard of anything that might hurt a vampire. I trudged towards him and my instincts revved up because something was indeed wrong. He did not seem to even notice my arrival until I was standing a few feet away from him. Akira, to my dismay, let out a whine. That made him raise his head and that’s when I saw his eyes, the pupils had dilated which made
MyraI was shaking by the time I had finished telling Andrew those fragmented, but scary nonetheless nightmares. The ones that were not were a blur and I somehow knew they were not just some illegible images conjured up by my brain, but a part of the nightmare, like there were some old cherished memories. On those nights, my eyes opened more languidly and the only discomfort was the way my chest clenched painfully as it did when I missed my parents.I tried to calm down, tried to regulate my breath before looking at Andrew, who looked dazed. His mouth was slightly agape and his eyes...his eyes spoke volumes, but unfortunately, I couldn’t decipher anything from them.“Is...is something wrong?” I asked hesitantly, and that seemed to break his stupor. “Oh, no...not at all,” he replied
Myra Thankfully, I met no one on the way back. I rushed into my room and closed the door with a slam. Bright light filtered without hindrance since I had pushed aside the curtain last night. My thoughts were muddled as I tiredly plopped down on the bed. What was I going to do? My heart pounded at the thought of Damian becoming obsessive. Akira has been silent throughout the conversation, not even making a sound of displeasure or agreement. “Aki?” I called her softly. She hummed an acknowledgement. I sighed, knowing very well that she would give more importance to me than her own decision. How did I end up with such a generous alter ego? Akira huffed at the thought. “What will we do?” I asked her quietly. I couldn’t accept him as a mate after what I suffered. Vampires took everything from me—my
Myra Before I could even come to a decision, Damian had zoomed past me and had tackled Eric. The latter let out a thundering growl and did not back down. He snarled and kicked. The power tussle was equal and I could only howl, but both of them seemed to have forgotten my presence. Akira and I both were panicking, running from one corner to the other. My gaze honed on their pointy teeth, how it gleamed but yet there was no speck of blood which somehow calmed slightly. When nothing came out of running and I failed to draw their attention, I decided to transform back. The silence of the night was broken by harsh growls and snarls, loud thuds and punches. I frantically looked around for spare clothes and when I spotted one, I hurried to that place and changed back. “Damian, stop,” I screamed because I knew otherwise, it would not be heard by either. But when his o
Damian I stared at the ring that sat in my palm. It looked like silver but I knew it wasn’t. Otherwise, it would burn my palm and I would have been screaming att the moment. I could feel the magic buzzing within the metal. I picked it up between my forefinger and thumb and rolled it about. The metal glinted under the light. I contemplated whether I should wear it, whether it would actually tame the beast that only thought of claiming his mate. By the time I returned to my place, more like my room, inconspicuous and unnoticed like always, Whatever scraps and cuts I had received were nowhere to be found, of course, but I was still feeling on edge. I clenched my jaw, my teeth almost elongating at the thought of that...that mutt coming to rescue my mate. I scoffed under my breath and placed the ri
Myra My luck lasted till the beginning of the training session. While I knew the others might have come to know about the reason behind my absence, I was not yet ready to face them. What if they hated me for being a vampire’s mate? I clenched my fists and tried to steady my pounding heart. Akira has been silent ever since that conversation and judging by her mood, I guess she is angry or at least not quite happy with me. I sighed and put on my sneakers. I couldn’t hide in my room for long, could I? Everyone had already started training when I walked in. I winced when Eric landed a vicious punch on the punching bag and for a moment, everyone stared at him while I averted my eyes. “You finally grace us with your presence. Eric has been beside himself, ya know?” Jamie commented, instantly earning a smack on his arm from Vi. I smiled nervously as I headed towards
Damian“It’s been so long since we came to hunt together,” Melissa murmured as we scoped out the area. Owls hooted from somewhere, camouflaged by their safety. Their hoots echoed through the woods. I hummed at my sister’s comment, trying my best to take my mind off. Until now my family had no idea about my situation. Aaron seemed to have an inkling, but he did not ask me.I twirled the ring on my forefinger absent-mindedly as if it had been a part of me for ages. I had been calm the whole day, not restless like I had been for the past few days. I almost felt...normal. I snorted at the irony. “What?” Melissa asked. I shook my head and we continued searching.“Quiet,” I whispered as soon as I heard a sound, crunching of dry leaves. Melissa complied. As we took the po
Damian Melissa had looked at me questioningly when we had meandered through the forest and come to the part where I had seen Myra numerous times. It was not a conscious choice, really. I had answered her questioning gaze with a mere shrug. But now, I think I know why. Maybe it’s what they called the bond pulling and tugging the two mates until they are bound to meet. When Myra barrelled at me and I found myself on my back, I didn’t think of throwing her off me. I felt...protective and...pleased. I had almost forgotten that my sister, who had no clue about my mate’s existence, was also present. We exchanged a silent conversation after I divulged the secret and I knew she would keep this to herself. After the initial rendezvous, I realised that my mate was acting so cosied up because she was in heat.
