A beeping noise caught Daryn's attention. He darted his eyes to the source and found that the radio was still working, but the headphone was blown to pieces. Relief sailed through him as he looked at it with hope. He managed to climb inside the cockpit and check the buttons near the radio. At first it was just the beep. He pressed the buttons around it for it to come alive. Rough, crack-ish sound emanated and the radio came alive. Excited as hell, Daryn tapped the sleek microphone that was hanging upside…-

"We are experiencing extreme weather conditions," came the voice of the pilot over the microphone. "Please tie your seatbelt Mr. Silver." Tension was strife in the air. Daryn tied the seatbelt and looked out of the window again. It was raining pretty heavily. He picked up the phone and asked the pilot, "Are we very high from the ground?" "Not much." "Look for a clearing and land the plane there as soon as possible." "But Sir, we can't land on any clearing. We need a large one." "Just find…

Dawn asked Gayle, "Then why did you send Daryn?" She didn't even know that the Silvers had gold mines. Daryn had told her about the coal and silver mines, but this—this was new. "I had to send him because Caleb isn't here. It's business as usual," he answered with a frown as if trying to understand her trepidations. "We have business all over the world and if something as serious as a blast takes place in a mine, then Daryn needs to be present there. He has to assess the situation in order to take…

Daryn hopped in the bed beside her. Once he had tucked her nicely in the blanket, he cupped her face in his hands and stroked her soft cheeks with his thumbs. "Baby, you look so tired that I feel uneasy about it. Is it so necessary to undergo all that magic training? Why don't you suspend it till we deliver our babies? I am scared that the magic might affect their growth or development." Dawn leaned her face in his warm, big hands and said, "If at any point I am going to feel that the magic will affect…

Now she could understand his misery over the nightmare. The sight of the woman in his mind made her queasy. She trembled against his body when she remembered her face, her fangs and her claws. Dawn clenched her jaw when she recalled how she raked her claws in his wings so deep that his veins ruptured. Dawn got up and checked his wings by pulling them out with force, because he was reluctant in showing her. There were scars on the inside. Her blood boiled when she saw those scars. 'Why didn't you tell me…

Quetz landed smoothly on the lush green grass of Ensmoire and crouched a little in order for Dawn to alight. When Dawn was a little further away, he turned and padded his way to the nearest Eoben. The tree lowered its branch for him and he climbed it. The branch lifted up taking him with it. The leaves and flowers of various hues belonging to pink ranging from coral to fuchsia, salmon and rose, spread themselves, as the branches opened their arms to cradle him like they were his mommy. Dawn was left…

The mountain flanked the edge of the Ensmoire forest on the northern side. As he ascended the altitude, the air became chilly. The giant mountain rose into the blue sky like a craggy grey face with striations of snow-lined weathered rocks as if they were wisps of hair of an elf—pure and surreal. The sun rose behind them and lighted the snow with its gold. From a few carved rocky outcrops that were bare of vegetation, waterfalls fell excitedly as if to add the vigor to otherwise silent surroundings. Most…

"When she recovers, ask her to meet me," said Sedora. Known as the queen of illusions, Sedora had several conquests under her belt.

It was possible for her to manipulate any situation that she could see or hear or even feel. Her ability was to reach inside the brains of her victims and produce a scenario that was akin to their nightmares. She was very…

Brenda was in her chamber, waiting for the couple to show. Brenda was a mature thirty-six year woman, yet she found good company with the twenty-three year old Dawn. The girl was so much more mature than her contemporaries she ever met. What she didn't know was that Dawn was subjected to a lot of hardships ever since her mother died and then after her father's murder. She liked talking to her mostly because she talked sense and also because she was smart. She gave a huge grin when she saw her favorite…

For a moment Dawn's mind stuttered. There was silence. Awkward silence. It extended for a second, two and then for eternity. "Dawn?" came a voice from the other side. "Y— yes," she asked as if she hadn't heard her correctly. "I want you to come and take over the reins of the Wyatt business…" As Lily lay in her hospital bed after the brain stroke, she felt utterly helpless. Whatever she had in her hands, all the years of supremacy, all the years of domination over her son and his wife,…
