Ellie
After mom's truth spilling, we all went our separate ways. Dimitri was the first to vanish. It was like he couldn’t stand to be here for another second. I am very worried about him. Lately, he has always been buried in his thoughts such that he hardly ever spend time with any of us. I knew he was mad at Damien and I, but he could spend time with mum at least.
Damien on the other hand was avoiding me like the plague. As soon as Dimitri left, he too vanished to lord knows where. So, I was stuck with myself. And I hated being by mysel
Dimitri"What are you thinking of brother?" Ellie asked as she came and sat next to me on the rock facing the lake. She was much shorter than I was, so her legs weren’t touching the ground. Instead, she swung them back and forth in the air. I used to make fun of Ellie’s height once. But now I was scared that she was all too grown up. I wanted her to remain small. But life didn’t work that way. She was in love. My little sister Ellie is in love with my best friend.Ellie’s question reminded me of home. This was always our routine. She would find me deep in thought staring through my bedroom window and would ask me that exact question. Initially, it felt odd sharing my thoughts with her. But with time and lots of begging on Ellie's end, it became routine.I always pretended to be annoyed when she would ask the question but low-key would wait patiently for her to come and ask me. Yes, I secretly started to enjoy our sessions. In a way they a
DimitriBeing in a werewolf pack had its moments. Most of the times the wolves avoided us like some contagious disease. I still don't understand why though. It's not like I was going to wake up one day and just decide to kill them. Besides, vampires can’t feed on werewolves. Their blood is poisonous to us.Again, it would render us a slow painful death if we drank it. I of course being an original vampire would be injured severely. Only the alpha’s blood could actually kill me.I am currently wondering in the forest looking for a meal. See, the pack did give us blood from their blood bank, but I wasn't a fan of it. Having fresh blood was always better. I couldn't get fresh human blood since I was too far away from human civilization. So, animal blood would have had to suffice for now. The blood from the blood bank was frozen so, it had to be rewarmed for us to drink. Just like how soggy warmed up food in a microwave tasted so, too did the blood when it
DimitriThe door creaked behind us as it slowly closed. Then like all the doors in this crazy witch place, it too disappeared and was replaced by a brick wall. I took a quick peak and Damien and noticed that he was still a brick wall of emotions. I really couldn’t tell how he was handling all of this.I then turned back to face the old woman.She was now sitting up on her bed. She also had a candle in her hand. Then she whispered some words in a language I had not heard before and the candle was lit. The old lady held the candle with both hands. She then stretched out both hands slowly. Once both her hands were fully stretched she let go of the candle and to my surprise the candle continued to move in the air until it reached the center of the room. Then the candle stopped. The whole room was now brightly light by the candle that was hanging in the air. How normal.I was still grasping what the woman just did that I didn’t notice the woman
Dimitri“Wait, I am so confused right now,” Damien said as he stopped right after we stepped out of the creepy cemetery. I was glad I wasn't the only one seeing things. But how could I have not seen it all along. I spent so much time with her that I should have known. But she smelt human, she acted like a human as well. Besides, witches also avoided human civilization. But clearly she didn’t. On the upside at least I knew exactly where to find her. Well, that is if she hadn’t left. I hope she didn’t leave. I no longer had the patience to wait. I needed my palace back soon."But that is Rebecca," Damien voiced out again when he realized that I wasn’t going to respond to him. I looked to Damien and for once I could read emotion on his face. His eyebrows were knitted together in confusion. I couldn’t help but laugh as he wor
DimitriDamien and I had told my mother and Ellie that we were tracking a lead for a witch. Which wasn't exactly a lie. We just refrained from telling them the whole truth for their own benefit of course. Ellie would demand to be taken with us if she knew, and not that women are weak or anything, but my heart could not handle losing her twice. So, to avoid that argument we chose to rather not disclose the whole truth.We left the pack grounds the very next morning which was exactly three hours after we had arrived back home from the cemetery. Damien and I were vampires, so we only needed an hour of sleep really. Besides, I was looking forward to having a good human meal. We decided to use a vehicle since we were going to the human town. I also was tir
DimitriStanding in front of Rebecca's house right now with a pounding heart wasn't something I wanted to do, but alas life had other plans. I needed her and I was running out of time. So, I here I was.Why did meeting this girl make me nervous?Damien went ahead and pushed the doorbell without even checking if I was ready. "Triiiiiiiiiiiiiinnng!" the doorbell rang silencing my thoughts on how to scold him. It was too late to turn back now I guess.A few moments later, Rebecca in all her glory opened her door. I couldn’t help but feel relieved that she still resided here. I was honestly afraid that she would have left. Rebecca’s hair was currently hidden behind some head wrap, with a few stubborn curls popping out here and there. She first looked at Damien and then her big-brown eyes finally landed on me. I didn't like the way she looked at me. He eyes didn’t hold that kind glimmer they usually did. Now they were just cold. This wasn't h
RebeccaIt had been just over three weeks since my last encounter with James. Well, I should get used to calling him Dimitri I guess. I have to admit Dimitri was such a better name. Anyways, I was finally getting over Dimitri. By that I mean I was finally over sulking and stuffing myself with chocolates and ice-cream. I had even started going back to African World again. I initially could not go there due to the memories of me and Dimitri at the place. And then as soon I as I was finally becoming alright again, grandma Zuzu contacted me
DimitriI woke up with a killer headache. Which was odd because, I normally wake up from naps feeling well rested. I then proceeded to touch my forehead as if by touching it, I would somehow figure out why my head was pounding. There was no wound open on my head which was great. But there was dried blood on my left forehead. Which could only mean that I had fallen facedown first. But when did that happen? And just like that, it all came crashing back fast. My older sister had finally found me.
