mercoledi addams story

Una fredda e tempestosa sera, nella sinistra dimora della Famiglia Addams, Mercoledì Addams, la figlia più oscura e eccentrica, aveva un insolito sorriso stampato sul volto. Aveva un piano malvagio in mente: voleva liberare la sua famigerata mano scorpione, una creatura mostruosa che era stata allevata dalla sua famiglia fin dall'infanzia. Mercoledì aveva sempre avuto una predilezione per quest'organismo spaventoso, ma i suoi genitori erano stati di vista diversa. Non avevano voluto che il suo amore per il macabro diventasse troppo pericoloso. Ma quella sera, Mercoledì aveva deciso di sfidarli. Nascondendo la sua mano scorpione sotto il suo cappotto lungo e nero, Mercoledì si recò nel salotto principale, dove la sua famiglia stava cenando. Senza dire una parola, si avvicinò al tavolo, mentre i suoi genitori la guardarono perplessi. "Mercoledì, cosa stai nascondendo dietro il tuo cappotto?" domandò Morticia, la madre di Mercoledì, con una certa preoccupazione nella sua voce. Mercoledì mise lentamente la mano sul tavolo e poi, con un sorriso sinistro, si tolse il cappotto, svelando la mano scorpione che era legata al suo polso con un guinzaglio di pelle nera. Tutti nella stanza si bloccarono all'istante, spalancando gli occhi di fronte alla visione orribile. Gomez, il padre di Mercoledì, fu il primo a riprendersi dallo shock. "Mercoledì, cosa diavolo stai facendo? Abbiamo detto che non dovevi mai lasciarla libera!" gridò, cercando di controllare la situazione. Mercoledì si avvicinò al tavolo, abbracciando il suo animale domestico sinistro. "Ma papà, la mano scorpione è parte della nostra famiglia. Non posso tenere n

Secret Code: The Marriage Proposal

“I was never beyond guilty until now. I wanted to hold you, but I can’t. I wanted to say everything to you, but you’ll push me away. I wanted to love you, but you wouldn’t allow it. Hesitation is never my thing, but after I met you… it became a habit.” – Prince Gomez Prince Gomez resorted not to fall in love with any woman in his entire life right after his father got imprisoned. He formed a secret code entitled as The Marriage Proposal to avenge his father’s suffering. The time came when he met a woman named Avery De Leon, the daughter of De Leon-Cortez, and the one he supposed to kill, as per his father’s orders. They both agreed to have a relationship, but both of them were clueless of each other’s plans. Prince had grown as ruthless, and as an expert of calibers, he killed Avery, and didn’t even feel guilty at once. Along with his plan, Bryce Fajardo, who had the same imprisoned father, abetted the murder of another woman named Aria De Leon. Prince thought the secret code had worked out, and they’re now clear of any nuisance. They finally killed the one who made their fathers suffer. But his hopes deteriorate when he ran into a woman with the same face as Avery, pregnant and wounded, pleading for his help. Will Prince be able to set boundaries to his feelings when he was supposed to kill her? Or he’ll let his heart dominate the feelings he once withheld? … EXCERPT: He walked past ahead. Aria couldn’t hold it anymore. “Kill me,” Aria mumbled. After she breathed those words, the rain started to pour a little. It mirrored her emotions racing inside her heart. Prince halted in his tracks. “Kill me not with the bullet in your hand, but with the love you have been resisting to vent out.” Aria turned around, staring at his back. Prince widened his eyes, turned halfway. As slowly as it would get, they still met each other’s eyes. Aria sighed. “No matter how hard you try to push me away, my heart still beats for you. I want you to like me, to say you cherish me, worry about me, find me, touch me, hold onto me, love me, care for me, marry me, everything you do about me… I want you to do everything to me, Prince.” Aria felt sick of hiding it for a long time. That distance made her suffocate. “I want your breath to be my air. Just once, claim me with all your heart,” Aria begged. A tear fell down her cheek. Prince’s heart thumped, and when the silence stretched on, he knew he had to run. After he did so, he met her soft lips, claiming her, as she ordered. ------ [WARNING: MATURE CONTENT IN THE LATER CHAPTERS] ------- Updates will be regular since it's a part of WSA 2022. ---- Cover not mine.

Tricking The Vampire King

‘I became the Vampire King’s chamberlain!’ ‘He thinks I’m a man!?’ ___ The evening that Reina Gomez experienced one of the biggest betrayals in her life was the day her life came to an end. Helping her elder sister, a three times failed author, in her research for her next project had turned out to be the cause of her demise. The efforts she had put in to teach her sister everything that she knew was not repaid with gratitude. The day of the new book’s release brought sorrow to Reina who had high expectations from the project that she had lent her support in. No matter how many times she refreshed the novel’s site, the result was the same. “Where the heck is the BL tag!?” She cried out for answers but to no avail. Her sister who had learned everything there is to know about BL for the new book had done something unexpected. ‘She wrote a frickin vanilla Vampire love story instead!’ She sniffled while finding solace in the one thing that never disappointed her. Her blurry eyes fell on the cover of the novel and her scowl deepened. The petite woman with cotton-candy colored hair surrounded by three breathtakingly handsome men was not something that she was hoping for. ‘Stupid reverse harem.’ She sneered while chugging the contents of the bottle. Her eyes shut that night only to awaken in a different room the next morning. From a drunken daze to panic at what had taken place, Reina soon realized what was wrong. The images flashing across her eyes displayed a life that was not her own. ‘Memories…’ She deciphered the meaning of these images. Staring at the new face in the mirror, Reina blinked those icy blue eyes as a name formed in her mind. ‘Rein Melk… The Vampire King’s chamberlain.’ She repeated the identity of the new body she was in. Was it not enough that she was in a different world, in a different body? She now had to pretend to be the King’s loyal servant. ‘A manservant at that!’ She grimaced as her new life seemed too hard to live. Tricking the Vampire King never was an easy task but doing so while possessing jumbled memories of this body was way harder. __ As days passed, Reina began to adjust to the world, living in the body of Rein Melk. However, she began noticing something strange. ‘Why do these men seem so familiar?’ She wondered while gawking at the three handsome men she was sure to have seen somewhere in the past. The pretty lady with pink hair further brought up a sense of deja vu. ‘Wait…!’ Her eyes widened when it finally clicked. __ With a large chunk of her memories still missing, will she be able to discover everything about the body she possessed? A nameless cannon fodder in the story her sister wrote, was that her fate now? Was the identity of Rein Melk as simple as a servant concealing her true gender or was there more at play here? Numerous questions with answers yet to be obtained. This was the life of Rein Melk, the one tricking the Vampire King.
