I woke up with a shake of my shoulder. I was immediately grabbed by my head because of the pain.
When I opened my eyes Rio exposed himself to me, worried.
"You're still bleeding," he commented.
I grabbed my forehead and felt the hot liquid. Tsk.
"Where are we?"
"In the dungeon."
I looked around and he was right. We're in the dungeon. Somewhere beneath the ground.
"They gave us until tomorrow sundown to surrender the stone. If you don't hand it they will take you father's life." So it's still not over huh?
"Where's Angel and Jax?" I asked him.
"They managed to escape but they only got two trait stones. Aaron stopped them from getting the other two."
Tears welled up in my eyes as he mentioned my cousin's name.
My friend is a traitor. My cousin is a traitor and lastly my un
After the exchange of sharp words between Aaron and Rio the traitor left as well.Unbelievably, maybe I should admit that there are things we really don't expect to happen.Just like my cousin, I thought he was loyal to us, to his family but he just seemed to be honest with himself.I no longer knew what to say to her mom.Her husband is dead and her son helped the king to kill him. I couldn’t help but gasp. The next day I woke up to a loud explosion above."What's that, Rio?"I asked nervously.Maybe they did something bad to my father. "Something's happening." "What is that?" Later something exploded again.I also heard as if someone was shouting."Could it be that it's them?" Rio could not answer my question.He may also be unaware of whatever is going on. If before there was an
Rio's POV When you want something, you do anything to get it. When you want to protect someone, you'd do anything to do it. Life is a gamble, sometimes we and sometimes we lose. And in my case, I lost in the gamble of life. I lost the woman that I love without even showcasing what I truly feel towards her. I don’t know what really happened to him.That day, he suddenly disappeared and I didn't even know what really happened to him. Is she dead? Is she coming back? I don't know.
If you live in a world where there are special traits, will you be good, bad, or just be normal?I was born with a special character, so were my neighbors - the people of the city of Iliaden. History has said that we get our special traits from our gods and goddesses. They said their power was so great that they gave us a share of what they had.In this country, I cannot say we are equal. There is a level in society. Our country has five districts. Whose district number is the latest is also their highest power. And I was lucky to be born in district five. Or so they thought.We have different characteristics, different per district. And I can say we are more powerful because we are in the fifth district. We have key features.District four can control things and when I say things I can say everything including people. They look telekinetic, super cool really.District three has electrical properties. They can control as long as there is electricity.The district h
I am now riding in a carriage to that school. I still know very little and then I will also go to that school.“Are we there already?”I asked the man who was driving the horses. He’s a bit old in the fifties, maybe. I bet he's from the first district. In the way of dress, not that I’m judging in other districts because it’s bad to dress. Just like me, it's because we were told that appearance matters. Even if they said that don’t just a book by its cover we can’t help but judge them based on what we see.“It’s close, miss.” His answer was short. I don’t know where that school is. Apart from not letting me out of the house, the school is hidden, not that I care.A few minutes later the carriage stopped so I looked outside. Don’t tell me this is your academy? I could see nothing but the ocean. Is the academy underwater? Maybe after all it’s a boarding school, once you’re in there’s no way you can get out unless you have connections or if you’ve graduated.“Are we here yet?
“Aaron you dumbass! Take a look! “Aaron caught me before I fell to the ground. And now Hela’s so mad about Aaron and I can really tell that she’s concerned.“Tsk. She’ll get over it in a minute. It’s even worse in our training.“That’s all Aaron said and handed me to Hela.That idiot! He doesn’t have gentleness in his body. But truth to be told you just lost that odd feeling because Aaron was right our training was the worst.“Are you okay?! “Hela asked incredulously because we straightened up again. I just nodded at her and chased Aaron to punch him in the face.“You jerk! You didn’t even say there was such a thing! Idiot! ““Hey! It hurts! “I rolled my eyes at him and stopped him. He wasn’t hurt maybe a little. I hope we get hurt.“If I told you would anything change? It’ll be the same anyway.”I just stared at him because he had a point and he also caught me so maybe that’s okay.“You guys are cute.”Hela said suddenly and laughed. My cou
“Don’t tell me you’re a virgin ?!”I covered my face because we were looking at each other. Her mouth! Very no brakes.I did not answer her and hastened to walk.I cried out when I suddenly floated away.“Sorry about that, did I make you uncomfortable?”“Well honestly yes, I’m not used to kinds of stuff like that and actually I don’t care about it not until you mentioned it.”“Oh sorry I really thought you were okay. You know your cousin’s reputation right?“ I nodded.“But I’m not like him.”“Yeah.”We arrived at the girl’s dormitory and it was very awkward because people were looking at us.Hela just led me to my room.“Here’s our room.”“You’re my roommate?”“Yup.”Thank god, I might have a hard time when other people are with me.“My roommate graduated last year.”I nodded.I looked in the cabinet and saw that my clothes were already there. So their faculty is really efficient. Our’s.“Can I take a nap?”“Sure. Just be sure to be a
I woke up to the noise around me it’s as if someone is walking back and forth. I groaned. I opened my eyes and was shocked to see that almost all of Hela’s dress are on the air.“Sorry did I wake you up?”“Yes.” I don’t want to lie and it’s not like she’ll get offended.“Sorry someone asked me out so I’m nervous and I don’t have anything to wear. What do you think? “At once she floated the green dress towards me.“It’s okay. You’re pretty so everything you wear is for you.“ she smiled at me.“But I think you should choose the red one? It suits you.“ she nodded and returned all the belongings to her closet.I looked at the side table and there was a letter there. “Who did this come from?”“Must be from the school, you know they like giving students a head up.” My forehead frowned at the letter.Good day student!Today is the first day of class, please wear the most comfortable outfit.P.S. Girls, don’t wear dress as for boys don’t wear shorts.“Why do
The food was ready so I was not surprised to see them floating. I still can’t help but be amazed, I’m used to seeing other people besides my district so I’m really a bit amazed at the traits of other districts.After we ate, a faculty followed us. He said that it’s our first class and it’s on station 1. I saw the men laughing. And then I saw a girl maybe a freshman too who tried to take off her dress because the wind was blowing. It’s not windy today, is it? It was there that I realized that the man from our district was working then. He’s manipulating the wind. I was chosen. So this is the reason why we can’t wear dress. People here are assholes.“Will the faculty do nothing?”I asked Larissa the woman earlier.He shook his head. “You’ll find out maybe later too.”I could have done nothing but nod. This school is really something. It’s strict but sometimes I don’t understand.We arrived at a classroom full of butterflies. But they also left as soon as they saw us. They ar
