Amber walked out of the Computer room and let out a sigh. She felt tired and her eyes were starting to get heavy due to lack of sleep. On her way to the classroom, she heard the bell and everyone started rushing out of the classroom. It was time for lunch. So fast? Amber thought and continued walking. She then sighted Emma who was walking towards her with a smile and books in her hand.“Amber,” Emma said her name and held her arm as they started walking back from where she had walked.“Are you going to read in the lunchroom too?” Amber asked, wondering why Emma was taking the books with her.“No,” she replied. “I am taking it back to the library. Today is the last day and we have to return all the books we took. By the way, what’s up with you and Kevin?” she asked and Amber turned her head to look at her.“What about us?” she asked.“You didn’t come back to class and so did he, so I was wondering if you both were talking things through.”Amber’s forehead slightly crinkled. She was wi

Amber inhaled and fought back the tears that threaten to release from her eyes. She assured herself that everything was going to be fine and if it isn’t, then she didn’t care anymore. After all, her life hasn’t been any good.“Your mother didn’t report you,” she heard Jackson speak. “At least, not the way you think.” He paused and then continued, “Your mother made that call because she was worried about you. She thought you were being threatened and wanted to make sure you are safe.”Amber didn’t feel moved and instead, she only stared at him.“Well I am safe, all thanks to me,” she said and somehow, it was true. She felt she has been the one protecting herself without anyone’s help and it made her feel in control.“In that case,” she moved her eyes to look at who just spoke and saw that it was the one Jackson referred to as John, “I think we should start leaving and attend to other cases,” John said and walked to the side, towards the door.All he wanted was for them to leave and let

Eyes and Fangs, Immortal Creatures, Creatures at Night*It was already five in the evening and Hazel was staring at the book of prophecy in front of her. She had expected to see another written letters but it was still the same as when she had seen it. Just the words from yesterday.She looked at the words again and read in her mind, “The body is made mortal but there is an immortal body. If triggered, the inner body is quickened. The Chosen One shall make a sacrifice on the land of ashes.” She understood the first part already which means that in Amber’s case, her body looks mortal but she is actually immortal. Also, the second part means that her immortal strength will be quickened when it is triggered. But now, she is stuck on the last part. Of all the lands she remembered in the past, she hasn’t heard of the one called the land of ashes. She wondered if all the names she could remember had also been changed after the ritual that took place 200 years ago, just like Aiden now bear

Amber stared at the person dressed in black. A black jean with a black jacket, on a black top, and she saw how his black hair moved with the wind. When his eyes fell on her, he smiled with his teeth revealing and Amber could not help but admire him. He looked nothing less than a charming devil who had manage to pull her heart in just a night’s encounter and Amber felt a spark in her. Her lashes fluttered slowly and the cool breeze of the evening didn’t help to reduce the way she felt. How come she didn’t notice this side of him last night? She then realized that she had been too busy focusing on how to escape to notice how attractive he looks.Amber stared at him as he walks up to her before coming to stand in front of her. It was hard for her to take her eyes off him as she could not believe that she had been with this same person for more than three hours.“Hey,” he greeted and then said, “Is the staring thing a norm here?” he asked and scratched his forehead slightly.Amber snapped

Students were running for their lives, vampires were hunting down their preys, friends betrayed friends by leaving them behind and saving their own lives first and soon, they all spread across the streets, causing chaos and killing anyone that they came across. There was carnage everywhere and from where Amber and the others stood, horror filled their eyes and Amber knew just what was happening. It was like the story that Hazel had told her back at the bookshop.The Chosen One didn’t make a sacrifice. She wanted revenge and these were the army she was after. The last war was not really the last after all. Now, the fate of mortality lies in her hand. She was the Chosen One, but she does not remember any of that, even though she has a feeling that she knew these people.“Kyra, we need to leave. I cannot defeat these people and neither can you, without your army. Right now, everyone is bloodthirsty and they are multiplying. They will choose their sides. We leave and fight another day,” Ha
