Mag-log inIrinaDaniel Ash…The name sounded odd in my ears, but I nodded and I showed him a seat. He took his seat then showed me to the bed which I took, now both of us were sitting directly opposite each other.Odd was an understatement to classify what we felt being in each other's presence.First it was the obvious reason.I was sleeping on Alden's dead body, the only person who might know this Daniel Ash on a personal level, and he was dead on the bed, and I was just here watching him.Confused on his role in all this.Worse I didn’t even know where to start from.“Daniel Ash.” I muttered again, trying to test the way he pronounced his name in my mouth, it sounded foreign.“I am Daniel Ash, a foreign diplomat between your realm and mine.” He started. The word diplomat being said in my wolf tongue reminded me of Ridge and his betrayal.I instantly felt hostile toward him. I moved back but he propped forward. I moved back again, and he soon noticed I was paranoid.“I am not here to hurt you
Irina“Irina, wake up… sleepyhead.” I felt a slight tap on my shoulder. My eyes opened sluggishly as I tried to adjust to the light in the room.“Alden?” I called out as it was his voice I heard.“Yes! Ugh, wake up, Irina.” He pulled my arm, then pulled me out of bed, forcing my eyes to open fully. Confused, I looked at the bed I was lying on. It was a white pillow.Then I looked at him. He was dressed in the same clothes I had dressed him in, a white sleeve and black pants.“Alden, you are…” I pointed to his neatly ironed clothes, then I pointed to the bed where his body was. Confused, I stepped back.“I want to show you something. Follow me.” He smiled at me, then looped his arm around mine. While still confused, he led me to the living area. The daggers I had pulled out of his body were still on the floor.“Alden… you are…”“I am nothing, Irina. Focus.” He ruffled my hair, then pulled me closer.“It’s morning here. I wanted you to see the clouds from here. It’s a skyscraper, and it
IrinaIt took me about an hour to align all the files and put them in their place. Alden might be very unserious, but he was oddly coordinated and he had taken his name, details, everything.From names to purpose. Checks, written notes. After the hour came to an end, I went to the bathroom and I pulled him out of the tub where he was.The water had a purple hue above it, but his body was now clean, his skin was almost back to normal, and for the first time I felt some sort of happiness, even if it was just a mere hint.I rid him of his clothes, then made sure there were no stains on his body before pulling him.This newly found strength of mine was of great help, I was able to carry him above my shoulder to one of the rooms where I covered him in white sheets.There were some clothes around, obviously his clothes. Some were covered in dust, so I brushed the dust off them before putting them on him.He looked put together. Now was the time to search for a private burial ground, and I k
IrinaLeaving Rosa behind, I walked over to the living room where Alden was, and he was still there, his face pressed on the floor, and both daggers buried into his body.This scene was horrid.“Oh my love.” Reaching out to him, I turned him over, his legs were burnt and his footwear melted into his skin, his hands also caught the flames and they burnt most of his clothes.I was so broken that I didn’t notice how much damage was done to him.Whatever poison was offered to him had made his skin purple and his eyes blue, he didn’t look like himself anymore, and all I wanted to do was go back in time and change everything.Bring back his smile, his voice.I miss everything about him.Pulling him closer, I hugged his body so tight before letting him fall again.“I will make you proud, I promise, and my babies would be named Leo and Milo, heavens know what it means, but if I have them I would give them those names just like you wanted.”The thought of it alone made me chuckle.“And I will
King SebastianIt was there and then that it struck me how oblivious I really was, and how much I had missed.Irina wanted to go to the human realm? Did I hurt her so much that she was so desperate to leave? She wanted to be worlds apart from me. How did I not see the signs?Did I hurt Alden as well? They must have shared the same pain for them to come together and decide it would be best if they moved away from me, to move to the human realm.Oh, goddess save me.The ache in my heart was suffocating, and I couldn’t breathe. It felt like I was trapped in the oceans deep in the water, with my hands and legs chained behind me.It felt like I was alive, yet dead at the same time.I turned around, and I held Amelia's hand.“Irina can’t be dead. Look at me, Amelia. You better pray to the goddess that neither of them is dead. I am going to go out there, and I am going to see them. Is that clear?”“Sebastian!”“Oh no, no. They have to be alive! They must be alive, or so help me, because I wi
IrinaRosa lay on the floor for some seconds before it registered in my head that something was really wrong with her.I had no idea what to do or how to react to it. Do I call out her name or pull her up?There were blood stains on her body, and she was badly bruised. She must also be facing the realm shock I faced. When she moved between realms, she was also emotionally disrupted.So yes, she must also be facing realm shock and might die. I watched her body on the floor longer than I should have, then noticed blood coming down her eyes and her lips, just like it had done with Alden after she wickedly poisoned him.So why should I care? Why does she deserve my help? I hope she dies and just leaves completely.No matter how big this realm was, it could not be big enough for the both of us. She ruined my life. She caused me so much pain.I removed my eyes from the floor, then sank deeper into the tub. The water bounced back, covering my head, then flowing down my shoulders.The King cr
IrinaMy eyes settled on the cloth in his hands, then back at him. My mouth ran dry. I leaned closer to him, letting him tie my eyes with the cloth in his hands. His fingers slowly brushed the corner of my chin; he brushed it up and down tenderly, then around the edges of my lips. Then he pulled my
Irina.The pilot announced the plane's landing at the perfect time.The King had just asked me a question I did not even think I would have the right to answer even if I were given an eternity to decide."I don't know. I never thought it was a possibility. Isn't it against the rules?" He shook his
IrinaFor a moment, he doesn't respond. Instead, he walks closer to me, closing the gap between us. His breath fanned my face as he stared deep into my eyes, like he was searching for my soul.His ocean-blue eyes pierced through the wall of resentment I built. The tension between us was undeniable.
IrinaI snuggled under the sheets, trying to tell myself that it's all right and, just like every other thing, I am fine. I am okay, and I will get through it. Anything at all, even if it meant I would be rejected for the second time in the space of three months.But no matter how much I told mysel
