The Guild – Chapter 85 – Kaitlyn

    I’m left alone in my room, the sun just barely beginning to rise, as Andrei leaves to shower. Did he forget that I have a shower in my room? I run my hands through my hair; I showered yesterday, but I guess it wouldn’t hurt to have another one. Who knows where we’ll …

The Guild – Chapter 84 – Andrei

    The door to the Danger Room clicks shut and I feel my stomach do a summersault. I’m not even the one in there and I’m already nervous. It’s insane really! I mean, I know she’s a good fighter, but… this room has a freakin Guardian level? What does this place expect us to …

The Guild – Chapter 83 – Kaitlyn

    The first rays of morning bring an end to the dream. As I open my eyes, for a moment the bed in front of me looks empty. I move to sit up, only to feel arms around my waist tighten. I feel his breath hot on my neck as he snuggles closer in …

The Guild – Chapter 82 – Caroline

    “Yes, yes, you’ve said that before. I still don’t understand,” I grumble to myself as I sit in the library listening to the water. Kaede sits next to me on the double couch, tinkering with his phone and leaning against me casually. He ignores my rambling, knowing I’m speaking to the water only …

The Guild – Chapter 81 – Hitomi

    My skin tingles as I listen to this song through my headphones. The tune is purely melodious and I I feel the rise and fall of the chorus as the shape of the wind over the hills and cities that form the coastline of Nagasaki. I lay on my tatami mat, eyes closed, …

The Guild – Chapter 79 – Kaitlyn

    Even though creating a storm was my idea, standing on the beach now, I realize I have no idea what I’m doing. It’s bad enough that Andrei, Ceph, Nik, Cliff, and Selene are watching, but there’s also a crowd of mages from the guild gathered in the field. They seem to follow me …

The Guild – Chapter 78 – Andrei

    I can’t remember the last time the bed was this warm. I like it so I won’t complain because it means only one thing - Kaitlyn is here. I heave a sigh of relief, feeling the weight of her head as it rests on my shoulder. Her long red hair is loose, splayed …

The Guild – Chapter 77 – Hitomi

    I like walking the streets of my neighbourhood at night. It is relatively safe, even without so many street lights. Even if I didn’t have these strange powers, I’m sure I would feel safe. The weather is still chilly, but it is beginning to warm up here in Kyushuu. Soon the Cherry blossoms …

The Guild – Chapter 76 – Selene

    Approaching the cafeteria at mid-morning is always a toss up. Some days, the majority of people have already cleared out. Other days, it’s like a zoo. Unfortunately for me, today happens to be a zoo day. I stand outside the archway, wondering if it’s worth the headache, surrounded by so many voices; so …

The Guild – Chapter 75 – Kaitlyn

    Relieved is an understatement of what I feel as we leave the cafeteria. Andrei’s jealousy took me off guard, to say the least. Does he think Nik would try to steal me away? Or does he not trust me, that I would cheat on him? I don’t understand it. What would give him …

The Guild – Chapter 74 – Andrei

    I lay there beside her as she drifts off to sleep mumbling. I don’t know why I feel so uncertain about… us, I just do. Maybe we’ve spent too much time apart. Maybe I’m insecure. Maybe Sam had more of an effect on me than I first thought. Whatever the reason is, I …

The Guild – Chapter 73 – Kaitlyn

    Stepping onto the marble floor again after so many weeks away is a little surreal. I’d convinced myself I would never come back. It’s not the same, after everything that’s happened. Or… maybe I’m the one that’s changed. It’s hard to say. My head hurts.     A whine catches my attention, followed …
