The Inferno's Claim Freaked Out
Genova dashed out of the school building, running toward the exit with quickened steps, and her heart was not having it either. She felt like she was on the predator’s premises and needed to escape at once before being served on a golden platter. Her head was jumbled in fright and her sight blurry as she made haste to disappear from this place without paying the slightest attention to her surrounding until she bumped into a soft wall. No, it wasn’t a wall but someone. They both found themselves on the hard ground with Genova on top of the latter. “Oh my God, I am so sorry.” She muttered an apology as she quickly got back to her feet and intended to proceed with her escape. But before that could happen, she felt a firm grip that retained her from getting away on her right arm. “Girl. Are you doing all right?” A soft female voice sounded. “No, not at all. I mean, y-yes, thank you. I am sorry for bumping into you,” Genova apologized again, making sure her voice was calm as she could
The Inferno's Claim Impossible Danger
Genova ran as much as her feet could carry her. Unfortunately, she couldn’t outrun the carnivores because their speed and agility were much superior to hers.“Ahh…” A loud shriek tore from her mouth when a sharp claw ripped through her skin just before she was tackled to the ground by one of the beasts. Her vision blurred due to the impact of colliding with the rough surface from the attack. She felt blood dripping from the gash on her left shoulder blade, wetting the ground as the animal loomed over her body, preparing to tear her into shreds. Dread gripped Genova to stare death in the face. Automatic tears she had no control over began pouring down the corner of her eyes. Her heartbeat accelerated like never before and she shut her eyes, knowing there was no escape in this kind of situation. She was cornered from all angles and her attempt to survive earlier had proven to her how fast these assailants were. Genova couldn’t stop the tremor that blanketed her as she lay still and
The Inferno's Claim Dead?
Kaden’s heart leaped when he realized how severe Genova’s condition was. The fact that she was now spewing black substance from her mouth meant one thing: The poison had spread to her bloodstream! He was losing her! She was dying and right on his watch. All be it, no matter the odd, he wouldn’t let that happen. Not when he had just gotten her back after many years apart. Instantaneously, he picked her up, bridal style and began running in the direction she would get help at an inhumane speed. His figure was like a blur as he ran with everything he got to make it to the hospital before it was too late. ‘Karla.’ Kaden yelled for his sister through the mind link. ‘Kaden. Are you ok? I heard about the rogues invading our territory and am on to your location-‘ ‘Please get Sam or Monica. Genova… I am losing her.’ The panic in Kaden’s voice couldn’t be missed. ‘What do you mean ‘you are losing Gen?’ What has she got to do with the rogue attack? What happened to her?’ ‘Get the help
The Inferno's Claim Dead? (2)
“Perhaps we could have had a different outcome if you had not let your emotions get in the way.” A not-so-pleased voice resounded. Karla and Kaden whipped their heads toward the source with mouths wide open. Eva was standing a few feet away from them with one hand on her waist while the other fell languidly beside her. A deep frown was etched on her forehead, making her once alluring face and figure lose the usual demeanor she always had. “Luna.” The siblings exclaimed with shock. “Don’t you ‘Luna’ me now… Start talking!” Eva said curtly as she closed the distance between her and the twins in long strides. “Luna. I-I—"“What in the world did you say took my niece?” Eva cut Kaden off from his stutter by demanding answers about Genova’s whereabouts from the only person who could tell her what she needed to hear. She was not here to listen to anything else order than finding out about the safety of her niece. “I am not sure, Luna. I-I mean, I don’t know what to say… I don’t kn
The Inferno's Claim Bewildered
“Miss Eva.” Monica’s voice rang the moment Eva emerged from the forest with Kaden and Karla hot on her tails. “Did you manage to find out about Gen’s whereabouts? Is she Ok?” Monica bombarded Eva with questions. Her forehead creased when she spotted a messed up-looking Kaden behind Eva. His white t-shirt that hung to his muscular frame had numerous stains that looked like dark sticky ink. But Monica knew better than fall for this assumption. This was someone’s blood that became like this due to toxins such as rogue bites. However, taking a good look at Kaden, the man didn't seem injured in any way. He was in perfect shape!Whose blood could it be then? She wondered. "Are you hurt, Kaden?” Monica questioned even though she could already guess the obvious. Her mind was troubled since Eva called to inquire if Genova had perhaps contacted her. Monica had been away from the estate like she always did from time to time whenever Eva was out for work. Nobody knew where she went, and Eva c
The Inferno's Claim Bewildered (2)
Eva stood frozen at her spot for a long while, pondering what was happening around her. What troubled her most was the fact that Genova was somehow surrounded by many question marks. The girl had managed to draw trouble to herself twice in a span of two days. The first time was her narrow escape from the clutch of a mysterious raging dragon that probably would have roasted her alive had it not been for her timely intervention. Eva had been trying to get information on the creature. She had been trying hard to uncover why it was in her territories using her connection but had yet to be successful. The only person who could have given her answers was Jack because he had lived longer than most supernatural beings -but the man was unreachable. Nobody could initiate a mind link with him unless he wanted them to. Eva wondered why her niece had done nothing but attract trouble since her arrival. Barely a day had passed since the previous incident, and she managed to land herself in ano
The Inferno's Claim The Confession (1)
Eva searched through her contact lists for Mary’s number and was about to press the call button when a familiar figure suddenly materialized in front of her. The phone fell from her hand as a loud gasp escaped her throat. Before her was Monica’s battered silhouette lying slumped on the rough ground. Her once neat and wrinkle-free cream-colored dress was soaked in blood with ugly gashes all over her once smooth olive skin. “Monica.” Eva rushed toward the wounded lady and squatted next to her. Even though their previous argument left a bad taste in her heart, she couldn't just stand by and watch the same female who had helped her a great deal suffer like this without doing something to help her. “What happened to you, Monica? How the hell did you get hurt this badly?” “Miss Eva. I am s-sorry for speaking t-the I d-did e-earlier—” “Stop talking and tell me how I should help you.” Eva barked in worry. She wiped the blood from the latter’s mouth with her sleeve with a deep frown etc
The Inferno's Claim The Confession (2)
[Other than bringing you together, every one of my following plans was futile]Monica paused before picking up again, [You were innocent in all of this, Miss Eva. It is unfortunate that you had to be entangled in a conspiracy you are clueless about. Seeing how unrestrained he was with you that day, I felt somewhat sorry for you. Your cries of agony made my selfish heart bleed with guilt for the first time] Eva felt more nonplused than before. She couldn't make sense of Monica’s words because she had a different version of her first time with her deceased mate. To her, it was a night filled with the utmost pleasure and delight—one she will never forget. She recalled struggling at first due to how barbaric Damon looked, yet she was glad he didn’t give in to her request. Hence, Monica’s words contradict everything she thought she knew. As though reading her inner monologue, Monica continued—[I know what you think you experienced but that is far from the truth, Miss Eva. Your first t
