So, any thought?
Astraea's POV Dawn..... It felt so right.But why Dawn? My name was Astraea? So how could he call me something I was not related to? Is he drunk? Then like a flash, that dream I was in shattered when I was pulled away from his arms. My vision blurred a bit but I could see those expensively manicured hands on Zeus' shoulder. The girl, whose name I still didn't know, looked at Zeus with an extra sweet smile. "What are you doing here, Zeus?" She purred. SHE LITERALLY PURRED!!! I almost wanted to laugh. Zeus's face cringed with disgust. But before he could reply, someone grabbed me from behind. It was Emily. "You okay?" Her eyes moved to see those two people standing behind me. I could almost see those gears running in her head and then she smirked. Oh boy!!!! "My head!" She shouted and then stumbled back into a grasp. Only then did I notice who it was. Roman worriedly held her and made her stand up. Not once did he let her go and I could see the blush on Emily's face. "I don
Author's POVHer golden hair shined like shimmery strands under the moonlight. The light breeze felt like icicles on her naked skin. It was almost midnight and the little town called Castleville was already in a deep sleep.Except two. They were lost in their own world.One was almost dancing and swaying on the empty streets which glowed under the moonlight while the other had his eyes stuck on the innocent little vixen.It was like he was the one intoxicated, drunk in her.Was he always so spellbinding under her spell? He wondered but not once did his eyes deviated.No, it was stuck on her. Like those stars who dim themselves to make the moon shine a lot brighter than anything in the sky.For him, he was the star among many while she was the only moon in his entire sky. He was the shadow, her shadow. He was meant to watch her, to protect her from every soul which intended to inflict harm on her innocent soul.All his life, he wished was her happiness, her smiles. He was ready to tak
Astraea's POV I groaned and turned my back on the irritating sunlight falling on my face. I want to sleep more. But, then again my mother's voice didn't let me fulfill my wishes. "Wake up Astraea, you're already late." She said and moved the curtains from the window making the whole room brighten up. I slowly pushed myself on my arms to get up when the sudden sharp of pain hit my head. It was like tons of bricks thrown at my head. "Ahh... my head." I whimpered while holding my head. This made my mom chuckle. "Who told you to drink so much? That too on your first time. Poor Zeus had to brink your drunken ass home." She snorted And that moment, I felt everything around me stop. "Get freshen up and have your breakfast. Then take the pain reliever. It will help a bit."I couldn't pay attention to anything she said except for one thing. Zeus....he was the one to bring me home.Why can't I remember anything?I didn't do anything crazy right?Ah... why is my memory so poor? "Why d
Astraea's POVI always knew running was the choice of a coward. Hell, and being a coward was something I never learned.Yet here I stood, behind a damn locker as if it could protect me from getting squished under the catastrophe I created. A pit of my ownhell. I knew from the core of my very existence that it was stupid, but the heart was even stupider. The fear of the unknown nightkept on growing in my heart, being wary of the consequences.But before I could jeopardize anything, my skin felt on fire, like the sweet burn spreading through every pore of my pale skin.His hot breath fanned my ears. I was sure it was red by now, but I couldn't muster up the courage to look into his eyes."Running away already?"The mock was clear in his tone and as much as I tried to ignore it, the red bloomed on my cheeks.Sighing, I turned and looked at him, who still had the small smug smirk on his lips.Well not for long."You wish!!"He chuckled.The breathy sound was enough to take away the futi
A night sky, so dark that it felt too ominous. The forest seemed to be a labyrinth with no end. Each step seemed to take a little bit closer to the pits of hell.That's how they felt.Numerous footsteps echoed in the eerie silence of the dark forest as the coven of witches kept running from the danger behind. Their hearts were all out of breath but the urge to live a little longer was enough to keep them going.The youngest of them could nearly keep up with the rest. Her red hair was wet with all the sweat, clinging to her white paled face. But she kept running, following others.Soon they heard the footsteps behind.They were close...so close.The prey decided to hide as the predator neared and neared.She kept her hand on her mouth, trying to stop her erratic breathing. The wide tree though did nothing to hide her.She was scared as none of her other sisters were near.She was now alone.A strong hand took a hold of her red strands, and she screamed in agony."It's the little one."
PRESENT Astraea's POV Those black eyes laced with golden strings were the only things visible in front of me. So alluring, and so ...mysterious.I felt it was waiting for me to approach but at the same time going far , far way from me. But, I couldn't stop myself. I kept on going forwards, desperate to reach to them. Suddenly as if everything stopped. I waited, again.It was coming near me. Those eyes seemed a bit glassy but didn't deviate from mine.And before I could take a proper look at the mystery before me, a bright light flashed making me blind for an instant. The next moment I opened my eyes, it was a cream coloured ceiling with little light hanging from them.Looking towards the left, my dear mother stood before the open window. Ah....A dream. Shouldn't have watched those stupid movies. "First day of college and you are still on the bed. Wakey wakey."Her soft voice literally cooed at me.My mom and dad were literally the best parents to me as well as the best partners
Astraea' POV The classes were almost over for the day. It was the game night. The juniors were really very excited, apparently the football team is like the hot shot in the entire university. All I heard in the corridor and classes, were girls fangirling over the players and how excited were they to grab any one of their's attention. Typical college wannabees... Walking out the entrance, I watched Emily laughing on Miranda's awkward expression. I was amazed that it didn't really took long for Miranda to be close with Emily and me.But then again, considering Emily's charming smile and all time innocent intentions (note the sarcasm), it wouldn't be tough to like her. As I reached them, their attention diverted towards me.Miranda gave a small wave. "Ready to go ?" I shook my head. "Well, I need to make a visit to Mr. Connor's office. He wants to speak to me about something. You guys weren't picking up your phones, so I thought to come and inform you." Emily had a sly smirk. "Th
Chapter 3 Astraea's POV My eyes were just on him, his sun-like glazing eyes. It felt like a sin to fight shyness off them. An unfathomable feeling. The calls of the team made him came back to the real world, breaking the eye contact, he jogged back towards the group. The number 7 on his jersey wasn't the only thing helping me recognize him. It was his whole aura, the way he moved, the way his eyes coordinated with every move around him, the way his dominance yet an amicable control was there hovering around the whole team, following and listening to him. Geez, stalker alert !!!!!!. The whistle broke my drooling period over the handsome hunk. The game started but my eyes were glued to him. He was fast and I mean very very fast. Calculated moves and really sharp skills. One of the player with number 11 was well coordinated with our captain. Even though the whole team was doing their best, but somehow this 7-11 duo were really giving everyone a good game. They were so in sync tha
