Chapter: Chapter 38Emily held the bouquet of flowers in one hand and wiped the escaping tears from her eyes with the other. Gladly, she didn’t wear any make-up but a simple red tint on her lips. Her mind went back to reality quickly as soon as Mister Drake cleared his throat, asking for her attention.“Queen Emily?”She faced him and gulped down, “Yes?”

Chapter: Chapter 37The words of the wicked couple that escaped their filthy mouths earlier at breakfast has been running inside Emily’s mind since then. If she’ll be killed hours after her wedding; it meant she’d be killed together with Lucius and Olivia; she wouldn’t be able to save them. Emily snapped right back to reality when a maid called out to her.“Y-yes?” Emily stuttered at the petite figure of the young maid - who Emily remembered that her name was Alexis. Alexis was the one that helped Emily we

Chapter: Chapter 36“Queen Emily, wake up.” The gruffy voice of the butler woke her up. As she peeked an eye open to slowly adjust from the brightness, her eyes set upon a worried look of the butler. She couldn’t clearly remember anything, why she ended up here in bed.“I would like to apologize in behalf of Prince, I mean, King Axl for acting not like his usual behavior. And sorry for barging in your room; I’ve been standing outside for a few minutes but you still didn’t get up.” He bowed his head at her.

Chapter: Chapter 35Emily watched him in horror. She came back to hell to witness Lucius and Olivia’s wedding and to have a proper farewell with them right after and, she anticipated that it would happen as what she wanted it to be. However, Axl became an obstacle both in her way and in her life. Losing both Lucius and Olivia shouldn’t happen but then, villains will always find a way to win.“So? You’ve got no more paths to cross to. Inasmuch as I, the almighty older brother with an incomparable bewitching handsome look, have opened up a path for you to walk on. All you have to do is marry me.” Axl gestured to himself and dra

Chapter: Chapter 34Somehow, the tensed muscles of Emily’s body relaxed. She blinked a few times as what she had heard. “You locked them up? Why would you lock them up? Lucius needs to be wed as soon as possible; he’s losing his powers and he’s becoming…” Emily glanced down on the floor and lifted her eyes back to the spine-chilling unusual grey orbs of his. “…human.”“I knew you’d understand.” A smile of insanity marked itself on his face. Her heart seemed to beat in

Chapter: Chapter 33Emily and Olivia helped Lucius as they walk up from the stairs. Lucius was getting heavy and weak. He tripped over a few treads of the stairs and gladly, they reached the second level of the house. He told them to carry him to Emily’s room where he had concealed the symbols of the door to the underworld.Emily felt a slight pain from inside her and it must be only the hunger she’s feeling. She hasn’t eaten since last night. She couldn’t stop thinking about living the rest of her life with her mother in normalcy. Now that it’s confirmed, the wish she’s been wishing to come true since it all started is finally becoming true.

Letters at Dawn
One part of Xyla believed her whole existence was only a joke to this world. Her mother died giving birth to her and her father ran away after knowing when she was only a week old from her mother’s womb and, poor baby Xyla wasn’t planned for abortion. Another part of Xyla believed that all of the cruelty she has in life were challenges she knew God had given for her to strengthen herself. Just recently, her aunt Nana, the one who took care of her, passed away for how old and weak she was becoming.
Now, Xyla was left alone. She worked as a waitress in a newly-opened café in their little town. She met Officer James during her day shift–stunning yet arrogant. One day, when Xyla woke up at dawn, she received a letter she didn’t know from whom it came from. She decided to give a call to the police but they turned her down; thinking it was only a prank.
Luckily, Two officers offered help–one stayed with her in her house while the other stays in his office. As days passed by, Xyla kept receiving threatening letters, not giving her a single clue of who the sender was.
Not until her coworker from the café died and her life made a big, abrupt turn.
She developed feelings for the Officer, her depression and loneliness have started to weigh heavily on her shoulders and, her anxiety started to build itself up inside her. She was losing hope.

Chapter: Chapter 3Due to the different tone of my phone, I was pulled straight out of my sleep. I reached an arm onto the table and my fingers tapped, trying to find where my phone was. As I felt a touch of a solid rectangle device, I grabbed it and accepted the call. Not bothering on seeing who the caller was."Xyla! You're fired!"With that voice, I could easily tell that it was my manager. I frowned when the words he said seemed to have echoed inside my head.I easily recalled that on the very first day of my shift, when I was late, he contained his anger in a jar. But clearly, it was about to burst. He reminded me of the rules, especially the first one–to not be late, once happens, employee gets fired.I stayed up all night. Anticipating that I would find out who the prankster was. Or maybe, murderer. That person could've killed my aunt!If I wouldn't have stayed up all night until whatever the time was before I fell asleep–I shouldn't h

Chapter: Chapter 2A huge lump of nervousness stuck itself in my throat that I’ve been itching to swallow down. Mister Officer James here, the cop, had offered me a ride after that little incident with Ralph earlier. I insisted on walking to my home by myself but he carried me and shoved me inside his luxurious car. And since a few minutes ago, I fully intended on filing a case for kidnapping but I can’t do that now; his car’s seat is too comfortable.“I’m not on duty for the rest of the afternoon and decided on going to the café. I never knew that a wonderful goddess such as you would sweep me off of my feet and carry me to the heavens.” James smiled as he focused his eyes on the road.His words allowed me to cringe mentally. I averted my attention and thoughts from him to the world on the other side of the car window. For these two months, I learned to live by myself since my aunt died. I knew the Lord himself knows that I can get through this loneliness and mess up thoughts without rely

Chapter: Chapter 1My eyes darted up to the door meters away from me when a family of three entered the café. They sat on the spot at the corner where the pastel blue wall and the well-polished glass window meet. I stood up and carefully folded the page I was reading into half and closed the book down to the counter table.I picked up the menu from beside the book and brought it with me. My feet strode on the distance between me and the costumers, I sucked in a deep breath before greeting, “Good afternoon, may I take your orders?”“We’ll have—”“No, mommy, I thought you agreed that it would be my turn to order today,” the little girl’s wavy blonde curls that were tied into twin tails bounced when she jerked her head up to face her mother with a glare.“Alright,” the mother snorted and she handed the menu over to her daughter.In nervousness, my feet tapped together with my uncomfortable sneakers
