Why my life sucks (literally) - J.J Blake (read my book .txt) 📗

Have you ever met someone that seems nice on the outside but on the inside they’re like the devil? Well that’s me for you. Literally. Me Jessica parks. Mortal. Well sort of. I mean it’s not like I’m undead like my boyfriend. That’s right my boyfriend Zander is undead. One word. Vampire. You know fangs and all.

Back to me and my situation. A month ago I discovered a legendary clan called the circle of 14. It is filled with vampires that are super powerful. Yeah your probably thinking why am I saying that this is a problem. It is because I am number 14. The beast.

Your probably also wondering what the Beast does. Am I correct? The Beast is all of the other 14 members in one. Yeah how cool is that. Well you try living with it inside you everyday.

You still want proof of how terrible my situation is? Fine. Everywhere I go I have to worry about who sees me. They're is a group of hunters out for my blood. They are the Order of the Blade. If they get my blood they could make my worst fear come alive.

Another part of my situation is my adopted two year old, Anika Joz. I discovered Anika when she was a baby. Just recently I found out that Anika is not entirely human. Instead a fledgling.

Back to the Circle. I will list everyone's powers. Not by name but by number.
1= controler of the fire and the Circle.
2= controler of the storm.
3= controler of the wind.
4= controler of the sky.
7-10= controlers of the oceans.
11= controler of the hunt.
12= controler of the earth.and cursed with mortalitly
13= controler of time
14= controler of the Beast.

See?

The next morning I stumbled into the kitchen where I found Anika eating a bowl of cerel. How she reached the cupboards is beyond me,so I don't ask. "Morning Anika" I mumbled to her on my way to the coffee machine. I switched it on out of habit. "Morning mommy." she said to me in between bites of cerel. "How'd you sleep?" I asked her as I poured some cofee into a mug. "I dreamt I was flying mommy." Anika said hopping from her stool. "That's cool,pumpkin." I patted her head and headed up the back stairs to my office. I opened my office door and looked around. My office is more like a cave. The walls were a dark light blue. Complete with a antique desk and chair to match it. This was where I dealt with the shadowlands and the mortal world. I sat in the chair and set my coffee down. I booted up my laptop. My vampire background popped on to the screen. I typed in my password and leaned back in my chair. I took a sip of coffee while I waited for my slowpoke computer to catch up. Finnally the internet page popped onto the screen. I typed in my email address and clicked enter. I spent a couple minutes reading my email when I looked at the time and headed out back.

I opened the storage shed. The lights flickered on at my touch. Anika walked over to her playplace and locked it behind her. When Anika turned away from me, I crrouched to the ground and hissed at the room. It was how the Beast knew to come out and fight. The ring on my right hand glowed for a second then stopped.

I held out my hands as if I was waiting for something to be put in my hands. I wispered the word appera

. Out of a flash of light came my two favorite weapons. Two silver daggers with a snake curving up from the bottom. I looked at my arms and smiled. On each arm was a tattoo of a snake curving around my arm. Below it was a circle tattoo with a moon and sun. I love these tattoos.

I threw my dagger at the wall. It landed in the center of the circle. Did I mention that the wall I threw my dager was painted with the circle that was on my arms?

I whispered the word ricasha

and the dagger flew back to my hand. I kept throwing my daggers at the wall intil my watched beepped. I scooped up Anika, who had come out to watch me.

I opened the back door and closed it behind me. Anika wiggled out of my arms and raced up the stairs. I sighed and followed her.

She was in the tv room when I caught up to her. She was in my best friend Lexis's arms giggiling happy. " Hey Lex whats up?" I said to her sitting down on the lazy couch. "Flight test, Jess. Did you forget?" Lexis said to me. I groaned at that. That meant we'd have to talk to the circle. I nodded to her and pulled Anika in to my arms. Lexis stood up and turned to the corner of the room and chanted the words to take us to the shadow lands.

On this day that we are summoned by the legendary circle of 14. We leave behind our humanity for now and except the role of full vampiresem for now.

After the portal spit us out lexis and I spread out our wings. Mine came out with a loud whoosh.
Want to know what color my wings are? And no they are not white. My wings are the color of the sunset. I jumped into the air with Lexis following me. I remember first seeing Lexis's wings. They were a deep blue. To match her title of number 10. They still are.

I also remember first meeting the circle. Not in this life of mine. Instead my first life. I know, I know. How cool it is being able to remember first meeting a lengendary clan. It all started of one night. I was lying in bed. It was almost midnight. December 1st,1801. I was going to turn 16 in a few days and then I would be shipped of to marry some stranger. My name was Rosilinia. I looked toward my window hoping something would save me from being shipped of. I closed my eyes hoping for sleep. I felt a presenence in my room suddenly. I forced my eyes to stay shut although they were burning to see what was there. "Rosilinia,Rosilinia open your eyes."

the strange presnence said. I obeyed and peeled open my eyes. My mouth fell open at once. Standing at the foot of my bed was a girl. She was about my age, by the looks of it. But something about her glowed and filled the room. I blinked hoping that this was just a dream. "Wh-who are you?" I stammered. The strange girl smiled at me. "My name is Lexis. I am number ten. Controler of the alantic ocean." the girl Lexis said.

"I beg your pardon? Did you just say controler of the alantic ocean?" I said flabergasted. I read stories from the bookstore about a legendary clan called the circle of 14. I thought it a myth but right now I wasn't so sure. "Yes I am number ten. Sent here by the clan to bring you to them." Lexis said.

" To whom?" I said curious. "Oh forgive me. The clan sent me to bring you to them. Our leader is Alexandra. Controler of the fire and the circle." Lexis said.

"Why do they want to see me. What's so special about me?" I asked. "You shall complete the circle. You are the most special,powerful and unique of us all. You are number fourteen itself. You are the Beast. No one can compare to you. You are all the other 14 rolled into one." Lexis said to me matter of factly.

"I am?" I said again flabergasted. In all the stories about the fourteen they always mentioned the last member of the fourteen. They called it the Completer of the 14. I never thought I was so special. I could barely lift up my quill pen. What made me the Beast?

I snapped back to the present by Anika wiggiling in my arms. I dived down to the castle's open window and jumped on to the stairs below. I reminded myself to think about my first life later. I loved remembering first meeting Lexis. I pulled my wings in to my body without thought. I opened the door at the top of the stairs.

Inside I was greeted with fimiliar faces all around. I set Anika down and greeted all my old friends. I sat across from our leader,Carlotta. This was our circle. Each of the chairs was taliored to the owner's powers. Mine was a rich red. I loved it. No doubt about it.

Carlotta started with the joining of hands. This allowed us to become one with each other. When I closed my eyes I can see each of their life strings. Each glowed with a different energy. Mine and Carlotta's glowed the brightest,because we were the strongest. When we ended Carlotta said that we would have a ball to celebrate the circle's birthday.

I picked up Anika and left.
