We both have demons that we can't stand.I love your demons like the devil can---------------------------------------MIKAEL A brilliant white was all I could see. I couldn't hear a single sound and there was nothing in sight. Nothing but a blinding white color of everything. I started to walk aimlessly. It felt like I was in some sort of maze. Try as hard as I could, I couldn't figure out where I was or what was going on. This did not sit well with me, so I was worried."My boy" I froze. I could recognize that voice anywhere. I swallowed hard, not wanting to turn around. There was a fear of the unknown that was quickly filling me. "My boy, won't you look at me?" said the voice again. I slowly turned around and came face to face with the woman who'd carried me in her womb and had been reincarnated several times for that purpose. She looked as beautiful as she'd always been. Her grey eyes searched mine, her lips curved into a bright smile. She was wearing a white dress and her
BLAIR "Why?" He breathed shakily."Why do you keep lying to me in order to protect me?" He asked and I cupped the side of his face. "I would lie to you if it meant that it would keep you from feeling the pain of knowing the bitter truth. But, I really don't know what this is about. We have talked about the fact that I used to commit suicide. But, I promised you that I wouldn't do that again--""When I asked you to tell me the people I'd killed, why didn't you tell me that using my terrible powers, I'd once murdered the woman who'd birthed me?" Altan said and I froze, my eyes widening. "You... know about that?" I breathed and he sighed, a downcast look in his eyes."While I was unconscious, I saw her""You did?""It was after I gained consciousness that I recalled what I'd done""You know it wasn't entirely your fault. If you could stop it, you would have. Please, don't be too hard on yourself" I said, pressing a kiss to his jaw. I embraced him and closed my eyes. He relaxed
There'll be mountain for us to climb,There'll be days when the sun won't shine,But, I'll stick to it,I swear.------------------------------------MIKAEL I stared at the rose imprinted on my upper arm, exasperated. The rose was still a bright red, fortunately for me. Just as I started to turn away from the mirror, I saw the rose turn blue. Then, it turned red as quickly as it had turned blue. Another wave of dizziness washed over me and I gripped the sink hard, my knuckles turning white. After a few seconds, the dizziness eased enough for me to walk out of the bathroom. When I walked into the bedroom, I found Blair sitting on my bed. She smiled when she saw me. "Lorenzo stopped by while you were still in the bathroom" she said and I slowly lowered myself onto the couch in my room. "Did he find out anything?" I asked and she sighed. "Not exactly" "Right" I muttered, resting my head on the head rest, my eyes slipping close. There was a throbbing in the back of my hea
BLAIR "What's that on the mirror?" He asked with his brows furrowed. He moved closer to the mirror, his eyes widening when he read the message on the mirror. "Blair?" He breathed, his gaze still fixed on the silvery surface."Yeah?""Is that--Is that blood?" He asked, his eyes wide with terror. I moved closer to the mirror and sure enough, I perceived the metallic smell of blood. "How...how is it here?" I said and Mikael clenched his fists, tensed."What is Hera up to this time?" he muttered under his breath. "I'll get rid of it" I said, taking his hand in mine. He still looked very upset and when I led him back to his bedroom, he nearly punched the wall. "Look, I know you're so upset about the fact that Hera has been messing with us, but until we find a way to defeat that bitch, there's really nothing we can do, Kael" I said and he let out an exasperated sigh as he pinched the bridge of his nose. I got rid of the blood in Mikael's bathroom and for the rest of the night, we r
We're better off being together than being miserable alone.-----------------------------------BLAIR Mum's cold gaze met my shocked ones. Then, she slapped my man again. Tensed, I walked up to her to stop her from inflicting more pain on him. "You have quite the nerve, don't you?! You ruined my daughter's life! Leave her alone and go back to hell where you belong!" She hissed at Mikael who stared at her, a blank look on his face. "Mum, please stop it. Leave him alone" I said, taking Mikael's hand in mine. "What is he doing here in your house?! Have you been sleeping with him already?!" Mum demanded and I made Mikael to stand behind me. "Mum! Stop it already! Please!" I said. She narrowed her eyes. "I am disappointed in you, Blair--"I cut her off, my fist clenched as frustration built within me. "So what?! Disappointed because I fell in love with my soulmate? I chose to be with him, mum. There's absolutely nothing you can do about it. You just have to deal with it. You sho
BLAIR Five weeks had passed since my mum's sudden visit. Altan had not shown any symptom of severe depression or illness. But, I was suspicious that he could be hiding it from me. Lorenzo and I was still having a hard time figuring out a way to break the curse. Altan was more affectionate towards me and while I really enjoyed it, there was a lingering feeling that wouldn't go away.The feeling of time running out. I was wide awake on my bed. The bed felt empty without Mikael in it. He had travelled to Canada for a business trip four days ago. He was supposed to return the day after today. I could hear the ticking of the wall clock and it did nothing to ease my tension. Instead, it made it worse. Letting out an angry yell, I threw my pillow to the ground and sat up in bed, bringing my knees to my chin. For a moment, I stared at my phone which was lying not too far away, on my nightstand. I really wanted to hear Mikael's voice, so I reached out for my phone and grabbed i
Into the flames with a cavalier heartOut in the deep, yeah you are my riverBreaking the chains to open the cage---------------------------------------LORENZO "W-what's going on?" Aria asked, her voice small. "Calm down" I said and she took a step backwards. "You're not... you're not human? Who is he? Is he like you?" She stuttered, her eyes glassy. "Yes, he's like me..."She cut me off, her eyes still wide with terror."W-what are you, then?" She asked and I let out a sigh. "You have to sit down for me to explain it all to you" I said.She shook her head, her gaze resting on Mikael who could barely hide the fact that he was in pain, at this point. "Is he in pain?" She asked and I nodded. "Trust me, I'm going to explain it to you. You don't have to freak out. He really needs my help. Can you wait for me?" I said. She took another step backwards, a confused look on her face. "This... this is too much. I can't handle it right now" she breathed and opened the door. "Aria,
When you love me too, my skies are always blueBut now the storm of love is on its way-------------------------------BLAIR "I'm not fucking hiding things from you, Blair! Just stop it!" Mikael snapped, rising to his feet. He looked so angry and his eyes were glowing fiercely. I became worried when I saw that his hands were already glowing. "Mikael, calm down... your hands..." I said, trying to get him to calm down."Shut up! Don't tell me what I already know!" He hissed and I lowered my gaze, my heart aching in my chest. He punched the wall and my eyes went wide. He seemed to have lost control of himself. It was something I knew that wasn't really his fault. So, I moved closer to him. But, he moved backwards, his eyes wide. "Don't" he rasped, shaking his head. "Kael--""Don't come any closer. I don't want to hurt you. Don't make me hurt you" he said and I swallowed hard. "Fine, just talk to me. What's wrong?" I said. "I don't want to talk to you!" He snapped. The dinning table
