Allie Allure

Decietful Allure (Around the fireplace series)

The light of the fireplace cast long shadows on the wall, the fire reflected in the eyes of the woman sitting on the couch with a blanket over her shoulders. She had a bittersweet smile on her face as her mind traveled to the past days, nights long passed, nights she shared with her family when she was a kid. Memories she hoped to bring alive if possible. First story: a story adaptation of a popular folklore in Nigeria; The Princess and the half man; She had sworn on her mother's grave never to be blinded by emotions. But It'd seem she took after her mom in that aspect after all. Throwing all caution to the wind just for a man. She had thought she was different from the rest, leave it to reality to smack her back to her senses. Her feelings for her dad was complicated, she could say she hated him, but that was not quite true, no matter what, he was still her father. The one who pampers and gives in to her every whim. She knew it was partly guilt and the fact she was his only daughter out of a battalion of boys that contributed to his attitude towards her. But so what, she didn't care much for affection, all she had cared for was getting what she wanted, and that had been true about her, until now. Authors note: As a kid my dad will always sit us down at night, outside, in the darkness and tell us the most delightful stories of kingdoms long passed, Princesses and princes, magical creatures, much to the delight of us kids. But there's not much of that nowadays. So I want to share these delightful stories with everyone and I hope by doing this, these stories will not get lost in the sands of time. Thank you, have a nice read.

THE FALLEN DIVINITY

~From ancient times, humans were safeguarded by the Devas—beings of divine power and righteousness. But even the Devas were not immune to the allure of desire, and when their ambitions turned corrupt, their immortality bore a terrible curse. ~In a world where humanity has become the greatest adversary of divinity and virtue, ancient threats long thought to be myths still linger in the shadows. To counter this darkness, a new generation of Devas must rise. ~These are the Devangsh, fragments of the divine who walk among humans, their true identities concealed in plain sight. But even within them, shadows fester, threatening to awaken ancient rivalries and devastating calamities. ~At Aditya High School, five seemingly ordinary students—Manash, Arunika, Vani, Suraj, and Bikram—struggle to balance their teenage lives while hiding the truth of their divine heritage. Just as they begin to unravel the mysteries of their destinies, a transfer student named Akshay arrives, exuding a presence that is both terrifying and familiar. His arrival marks the beginning of chaos, as calamities follow in his wake. ~Who is Akshay? ~Is he an ally, bound by an ancient oath to protect the Devangsh? Or is he a mortal enemy cloaked in deception, sent to destroy everything they hold dear? Meanwhile, Sristi, a seemingly ordinary girl who resides in the school hall, finds her world turned upside down by Akshay’s arrival. Secrets buried for centuries resurface, and the past begins to unravel. ~As loyalty is tested and the stakes grow apocalyptic, Manash and his comrades must uncover the truth about Akshay, the origin of the Devangsh, and a destiny they never sought but cannot escape. Will they rise to fulfill their divine duties, or will the darkness within and around them prevail?
