Kyliena.
I was so comfortable to the point I didn’t want to move—I feared that this bed was not real and just a fragment of my imagination. I don’t think I had ever felt this well-rested during my whole years of living life. I stretched out on the bed letting my eyelids flutter open.
I sigh.
I sigh as I stare at the ceiling—even that was beautiful with paintings of angels and clouds.
Letting out a breathy giggle escaped my lips as I smiled, sometimes I had the most peculiar thoughts and I was still trying to convince myself that I was currently living in one…
How could it be that a magical quartz—a rock led me to this purgatory…this strange man’s purgatory?

Kyliena.This mysterious man, Niklaus, had walked me through numerous hallways lined with guards—who looked like they were about to kill you if you looked at them with the wrong expression painted across your face.Niklaus had explained to me that the guards would not think of hurting me as they are aware of my presence and are under strict orders of the king not to harm me—I did not know there was a king in Niklaus’s purgatory…I didn’t know there were rulers of purgatories.Very odd.I did not know who this king was—nor why he pitied me, but I thanked the gods silently that he did.
The Night The Vampires Came NINE
Kyliena.A woman entered the room with a tray of what seemed to be tea and a grim look on her face. Despite her expression, her beauty was so otherworldly that I felt immensely inferior and sank back into my chair a little bit.The woman swiftly entered the room placing the tray of tea on the table between Niklaus and I sat, she then so effortlessly took a seat right next to him, giving him a quick glare before turning to me and smiling sweetly. “Oh, you’re just as gorgeous as you were when you were just a wee little baby, perhaps even more!” Her eyes shone as if she was pleased with herself.I was of course confused as to how she knew of me and why these people could see some sort of beauty in me when I could not.
The Night The Vampires Came TEN
Kyliena.I couldn’t believe that this strange Niklaus person’s grandmother is Aphroditi. I laughed lightly and shook my head, the pair did indeed have a resemblance. They both had shockingly beautiful rich golden eyes and porcelain skin.“Your grandmother is beautiful…Perhaps even more so than you.” I laughed and paused taking a peek at his expression.Niklaus honestly thought that he was God's gift and could not fathom being anything less than perfection, “careful, I know where the food is and you still don’t know your way around this palace. If you tease me too much I may just forget to feed you.” He spoke with mocks of anger and seriousness.We walked through various hallways as we spoke, “It's a good thing I
The Night The Vampires Came ELEVEN
Kyliena.A week had passed and I had not seen Ambrogio since meeting him after dinner. I was still puzzled about Niklaus and Ambrogio's standoff behavior but I did not question it as it was not my place.I had, however, come to the realization that by Ambrogio being Niklaus’ uncle and Aphrodite being his grandmother…Niklaus’ father was most likely Zeus. It now registered in my mind and made complete sense about Niklaus being the universe's biggest flirt, his dad was a seasoned player and I gather that he was brought up to think the same way.It was late in the evening and Niklaus and I was chilling in his room watching movies, he was a good friend to have and kept me in a state of side-splitting laughter. It was a Sunday evening and Niklaus had the weekend off from doing whatever he was in charge of. We
The Night The Vampires Came TWELVE
Ambrogio.When Niklaus came to me that day, informing me of a mortal in the realm, I didn’t think anything of it.The mortal had fallen down an ancient portal that I had not closed, I used to use it so I could roam the human world at nightfall. I had no intention of closing it.Only she had found the portal and no other so I was not worried about others finding the entrance. I had covered its path well in deep foliage in the deepest, darkest part of the first; legends were told about the creatures of the night that lurked there, so no human had been brave enough to enter it.I told Niklaus to see to it that she was handled with care, she had done nothing wrong but we could not just let her go for she now knew too much.If it w
The Night The Vampires Came THIRTEEN
Kyliena.2190 hours. 91 days. 3 months.Time…time is a crazy thing. I’ve been here for this long, and no matter how I look at it. Its only been a mere 36 and a half hours in my realm…My grandparents must be very worried as to how I just could disappear into thin air without a trace as to where I went.I needed to go back.I want to go back; needed to even though this place with Niklaus was feeling more and more like home..like where I’m supposed to be here.But my heart and soul didn’t want to stay here. It didn’t belong here.
The Night The Vampires Came FOURTEEN
The boy with the jade-colored eyes. When a rare taxi cab showed up just outside my tattoo parlor, it took me aback a little. It was a rare event that a taxi driver would drive to this small fishing town. Visitors weren’t usually a thing here in North Cove, the town’s folklore scared everyone off. I did recognize the taxi driver, he was a bitter old man that just wanted to do the bare minimum to earn his wages. When a taxi did show up it was always him—him with the same lazy attitude. Oh, and not to mention my grandmother paid me a visit last night. All she wanted to pop in just to say that my eldest brother was to marry before the new year and shortly after I’ll become an uncle. Not an I’ve missed you, or an I
The Night The Vampires Came FIFTEEN
Kyliena. The night was cool, the silence it brought seemed to swallow this side of the world whole. The sort that flaunted the millions of stars in the sky like diamonds floating in a sea of deep blue. Shoving my hands into the pockets of my ripped jeans, I stepped out of my grandparent’s house into the night. Again I was leaving the house without saying a word to my grandparents who were sound asleep in their beds. It has been a week since that boy that looks so much like Niklaus carried me out from deep within the forest. He saved my life. If he hadn’t gotten m
