Unfinished Business
The ball fell to the ground, leaving a round mark on Genova's forehead. Genova soon followed suit, falling to the ground with a loud thud and immediately going unconscious.
“Someone, call an ambulance!!” A man yelled from within the crowd as people began to gather around the unconscious girl. “Gen. Come on wake up, Gen!!” Ashly repeatedly yelled, shaking Genova's hand in an attempt to wake her up. On the other hand, Zoe stood still at the other end of the table, holding her racket tightly and watching as everyone surrounded Genova.She had this terrified look on her face like she had just killed a person. Maybe she did. Her mind wasn't clear anymore as the only words that played in her head were, “What have I done?”~Meanwhile~Eva slowly approached the wooden shack as if something subconsciously called her. Getting to the front door, she pushed it open slowly and walked in.The once sunny day tRelated chapters

“And where exactly have you been?” A male voice sounded as Ashley walked into her house, holding her bag and shoes in her hand.The room was dark and shadowy with only small glimmerings of red light hanging from the ceiling. The person the voice seemed to have come from was sitting on a long round couch in what appeared to be the living room.“How's that any of your business Dominic? I'm old enough to go out wherever I want,” Ashly replied a little irritated. Dominic got up from the couch and let out a long sigh. “There have been recent sightings of Rouges around the hotel and in different parts of the city. My duty as your elder brother is to protect you from harm, but you're making it really hard for me by sneaking in and out of the house whenever you feel like it.” He continued, “I understand that you want to have fun and explore the city, but please be cautious and stay away from areas where Rouges have been spotted
The Inferno's Claim Turning Red
It was a Sunday morning with everyone going about their usual business. Birds chirped from nearby trees and the fallen leaves on the ground rustled as the wind blew wildly.“I understand the girl named Genova Is your friend, correct?” Meredith spoke while looking at Ashly sitting facing her in a coffee shop. “Yes, My Queen. We met at school,” Ashly replied. “Okay then, ensure to remain friends with her for as long as possible. I will need something from you soon enough.” Meredith’s voice was soft. She picked up the small mug containing her black coffee and brought it to her deep shade red lips.Ashly shifted uncomfortably in her seat. “Uhh… that's not a problem, we're already really close, so I believe our friendship will last even if I don't put in so much effort. She’s a sweet soul,” Ashly replied a little shakingly.Meredith lowered the mug down on the table with elegance. “Good! You may take your leave.” Ashly jerked back a little. “That’s… that’s it?” Her voice was laced with

“So, what is it you want to talk about?” Genova questioned as she trailed beside Noah towards the school gates.“Nothing much. I only want the chance to know and be close to you.” Noah placed his arms behind his back. “I am just being a good pupil wanting to introduce myself and officially welcome our school’s brand-new addition.”“But I've been here for a few weeks now; I’m not so brand new anymore,” Genova rolled her eyes, intentionally trying to make things difficult for the dude.“Trust me, Lady, this school has much more to it than that which meets the eye.” Noah grinned.Genova’s lips formed a thin line, pondering his words as they walked toward the car parked outside the gate.“Not bad,” she complimented as soon as she spotted Noah’s black Dodge Viper. “Thanks! Fan of cars I see.”“You could say that agai
The Inferno's Claim The Meeting
The sound of keyboards clicking rapidly could be heard in a dark room. The only source of light that could be seen was that which came out through the laptop screen.On the laptop's screen were Genova’s X-rays the Doctor who treated her had taken after the accident at the Tennis Court. “Fascinating!” He muttered as he viewed the images displayed on his screen. “That ball had a significant impact on this female’s skull. It left a severe crack.” He rubbed his chin and leaned back on his seat.“How did she survive this? And it was only a tennis ball; what kind of inhuman power threw it?”The Doctor continued rubbing his chin while his head ran wild with numerous possibilities. He had seen so many things and been through enough experiences to know that supernatural beings existed in their world - thus making him a believer in the hidden world. The only thing he needed was proof to validate his assumptions.
The Inferno's Claim The Meeting (2)
~SIX YEARS AGO~“State your business here or so help me, Goddess!” Eva snarled. Her battle teeth elongated as thick fur started to replace her once smooth skin.“Hahahaha...” A cloaked figure standing in front of her laughed and slowly raised her left index finger toward her. “I've only come to pass a warning, child, for only through you will this world become what it is meant to be...” The cloaked figure said."WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU ON ABOUT?" Eva scowled as a bolt of lightning struck the clouds, followed by a loud rumble of thunder.The cloaked figure laughed once more. "Those who dare to defy Fate's predetermined course. Fangs and claws will tear apart flesh from bone and soul from heart. Her path is paved with both joy and adversity. With loss and gain, through tears and smiles. And on the day she closes her eyes, death will be the end of the world."With that, the cloaked figure vanished into the darkness, leavi
The Inferno's Claim Dinner (1)
Dark clouds floated by in the night sky, and the rays of moonlight shone over the city, giving it a mysterious ambiance.A shadowy figure, resembling a gargoyle, could be seen sitting atop a tall building.His silky raven hair billowed along with the cold wind, and his black eyes with silver rings, although seemingly emotionless, glimmered like lightning under the night hues.Rising from the cozy sofa he was crouched on, he moved toward the edge of the building and dropped down as though gravity was his starting point. *******It was early Friday morning. The wind was chilly, and birds chirping could be heard from a distance. Students wandered around aimlessly, going in different directions and murmuring about their businesses.Genova hurried towards her class holding some books in her hand and her bag hanging around her neck.

True to her word, Meredith sent the address a short time later. Genova quickly dressed up and rushed out of her room. She hurried downstairs with her bag slung over her shoulder, hurrying past the dining room where Eva and Zoe sat.“Gen! Where are you off to in such a hurry?” Eva inquired halting Genova in her tracks. “Oh forgive my manners, aunt, I almost didn’t see you there,” Genova mouthed with a weary smile. “I’m off to have dinner with a friend.” “Ooooh, a friend? Is this friend by any chance that boy you told me about?” Eva teased, wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.Genova averted her gaze to hide her blush, especially from Zoe's enquiring gaze as she sipped her orange juice.“That's not it, aunt. It's just a nice lady from work named Meredith," Genova explained.Meredith? Eva’s eyes brows draw together. Why did that name ring a bell? Or was it because she had never come across anyone else with that name other than the High Queen? Though she has never met the latter, the en
The Inferno's Claim She Snapped
“See you guys later!” Genova yelled as she got into the car which door was held open for her. “Have fun!” Eva yelled back, while Zoe just rolled her eyes and pointedly ignored Genova as they silently watched the car drive away.“You do realize that the guy your precious Gen is going out with is the Alpha and heir to the largest wolf pack in the city, right?” Zoe spoke while making their way back into the house."Does it really make a difference? Their friendship will strengthen the bond between the two packs and improve our alliance in the event of a threat."“Whatever you say, Mom.” Zoe huffed. “I wouldn’t trust that guy,” she added before storming into the house and slamming the door shut behind her. Her mother was free to continue having her delusions; it was not her problem.-----Genova sat back in Noah's pricey Mustang, enjoying the view of the city rushing by and bubbling with excitement. This was her first date with a boy. She was expecti
