~The time was finally 3: 00 pm~ “All set?” Ashley asked as she moved to stand beside Genova’s desk. “Yeah, just a minute; I need to put these away then we are good to go,” Genova replied while shutting down the PC on her desk and placing the rest of her stuff inside her bag. She brushed strands of hair behind her ear and blew a deep breath. "Done, we can leave now.” Ashly stared at her face for a moment and then nodded. She could tell the poor girl was a nervous wreck about her interview. It was nothing unexpected, especially when her interviewer would be one of the most reputable companies globally. They walked silently toward the School’s main exit where Ashly’s train of bodyguards was stationed. Genova always wondered why a young female such as Ashly would need this many bodyguards. What harm could they be protecting her from? A bulky guy looking like one of those bodybuilders in fitness centers stepped forward the instant Ashly’s figure appeared from behind the large black
The Inferno's Claim Room 100011
“The hell I am letting my friend work in that department.” Ashly bellowed. Genova was quick to step in before her friend brought down the building with her screams. "Calm down, Ashly,” she said. "Besides, what's so bad about serving at the bar? I have worked in a coffee shop for two years—” “No, you don't understand. This offer is bad for you, Gen. It’s terrible! You won't be able to handle the tasks that come with it. Such a job will ruin you; you will be required to serve the—” "Lady Ashly!” Tony’s voice cut in before Ashly could blurt more than she should. Ashly quickly shut her mouth, realizing what she had almost done. She had forgotten that Genova was human and almost revealed their secret unknowingly. Damn it, this was her problem. She talked too much, the same as her temper that flared too quickly. “What will I be required to do? Is it something I won't like?” Genova inquired inquisitively. She thought Ashly was acting strange and even said strange things she couldn't mak
The Inferno's Claim Loyalty
Her legs unexpectedly moved on their own. She found herself inching closer to the couple instead of turning away before she got caught. However, her movement came to an abrupt halt when large palms suddenly covered her mouth right before she was dragged away. Oh no... She had been caught spying on a couple in heated wrestling. No doubt they were the hotel’s important guests. Genova’s first instinct was to scream, but it was muffled by the hands clasped over her mouth. Her heart raced as she struggled to break free from her captor's grip.Within a blink, she found herself in a long extravagant corridor with her back slightly pressed against the wall. A masculine figure towered over her as his dark, expressionless eyes bore down at her face. She could not see his face clearly as his tall figure cast a looming shadow over her. However, there was this particular aura radiating off of him. It was similar to that of the stranger whose girth and pace had left her flustered with fear and
The Inferno's Claim A Possible Danger
‘Forgive me if this might come off disrespectful to you, High Queen. But should there ever come a day I am required to choose between you and His Highness… I hope you know where my loyalty stands.’Dominic’s words played in the High Queen’s head as she watched his figure disappear behind the door. His statement clearly showed his unwavering loyalty toward her son and implied that she was throwing him into a difficult situation. She also knew Dominic valued their relationship but would ultimately prioritize his allegiance to the Prince should the day ever come when his stand would be put to the test. An incomprehensible emotion flashed in her eyes but was quickly gone before anyone could see it. Whatever emotions swelled within her that moment… whatever it was, she was a master at masking it all up as her expression returned to one that couldn’t be read. Her gaze went to the glass that was still half filled with red liquid momentarily before averting them to stare at the middle of
The Inferno's Claim Moira
“What do I owe this visit, Fae Queen?” The woman asked, then continued humming and rocking herself on the chair. “Did you know?” “You might want to elaborate on that question, Zelda. And hello to you too, long time no see.” “Don’t act ignorant now, Moira. Nothing goes beyond your knowledge in this world.” Zelda scoffed as she moved to make herself comfortable on the only available seat she could find inside the single-room wooden cottage. It was also a wooden chair like the one Moira was seated on, with a small wooden table standing between them. Behind Moira was a double bed for her to sleep in, and the fireplace was on the other end of where Zelda sat. These three things were the only furniture found in the room. Zelda glanced around the place that hadn’t changed since the last time she was there and shook her head. “If I didn’t know better, I would think you were banished from civilization to settle in the mountains. How else do you explain what a former Queen is doing living
The Inferno's Claim First Step
“Okay, all seems to be going well so far. I don't think the incident from room 100011 will affect my stay here...” Genova muttered and sighed as she stood in front of the door to another room with a cart handle in her grasp. On this particular cart was a bottle of wine she was asked to deliver to one of the rooms in the hotel.It had been two days since her first day at the hotel, and no one had aired out the event she had stumbled upon on her first day. This time, she made no mistake in knowing the exact room she was supposed to go to, as she had made inquiries on how the number system worked in the hotel.As she pushed the cart past some doors in the lobby, the memory of her interview came to her mind.The hotel was indeed a luxurious place. Everyone was friendly and minded their business, but something about the place felt a little off. Genova wondered if she felt this way because of how Ashley reacted to her working at the bar or if her guts were giving her signs. Warning signs,
The Inferno's Claim The Unsolved Mystery
“Luna…” Kaden scratched his head, contemplating whether or not to ask the question in his mind. “Ermm… How exactly did Gen get back home?” Kaden finally found the courage to ask as he moved to stand beside Eva, who stood in front of a large painting hanging on the broad wall before them. The room was poorly lit, making the painting blurred due to the shadow cast over it. But whatever was on the painting… it seemed essential to Eva as she stood ever so still in front of it, staring like it had some connection to her past. As if she was trying to decipher a hidden message. The longer she stared, the more her mind raced with memories and emotions that seemed to be triggered by the artwork.About three feet from them was Karla. Eva sighed, not missing the confusion in Kaden’s tone. “Honestly, I am also clueless about this matter. I have been trying to wrap my head around the fact that just as she showed up unconscious in her room, Monica lays dead in front of my car a few minutes later
The Inferno's Claim Zoe (2)
“Hurrr!” Genova yawned as she stretched all four limbs across her large, soft bed. “Finally… It's the weekend!” She exclaimed with a broad smile on her face.Quickly jumping out of her bed, she hurried for the bathroom as fast as she could while muttering, “Can’t be late. Can’t be late. Can’t be late” till she stood in front of the massive mirror inside the huge modern bathroom.She steadily passed her toothbrush around her dental, doing her best to get that early morning breath out.She took the brush out of her mouth a few seconds later, turned the tap on for water and raised her face towards the bathroom's ceiling to gargle.As she swung her head back down to get rid of the water in her mouth, her line of view passed by the mirror, and a dark image suddenly appeared but vanished as quickly as it came.Genova had failed to notice at first as her face went down again to spit out the wa
