Star-Crossed {The Pureblood Chronicles Book 2}

Prologue

The bright azure skies above have begun to change..to turn a dark eerie shade that cannot be described.
When you look up at the sky what do you see? Hopes? Dreams? Love? Endless Possibilities? Well I see something entirely different..a feeling I cannot describe but I know it gives me this caged in kind of feeling one that I cannot escape.
I gaze up worriedly into the darkening horizon that was once an omnipotent azure blue that went on forevermore. 'This world is changing fast and now the time has come for us to change with it less we become part of the history that decorates the worlds landscape.' I lost myself in thought as I stare upwards into the sky from my perch on the rooftop. I stood there for a long while gazing out at the world through my emerald pupils as my golden sea locks swayed in the breeze. I leaned over pressing my hands onto the thick concrete railing that wraps around the rooftop where I stood to look down for a split second at the bustling city below but fear overwhelmed me somewhat and I adverted my gaze back up to the sky in order to calm my mind. That was when I realized there was someone else there with me. As footsteps began making there way towards me I turn around to find the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen shining brighter than the most prized amethyst in the world gazing straight into my emerald pupils. 'I remember him he saved me the other day but I never got to thank him nor ask his name let alone tell him mine' I smiled at him then I held out my hand and gazed into his eyes. "I never got to thank you for the other day because you left as quickly you came." I said but the man standing before me with his spiky red hair with pink ends that stopped at his shoulders and skin between fair and tan with eyes that were the most enchanting shade of amethyst that anyone has ever seen who wore a deep red hoody that looked somewhat maroon on top of his black shirt that stuck out from underneath his hoodie not only because that hoodie was not zippered all the way up but a pair abyssal black jeans could be seen worn on his legs and on his feet were black sneakers but up higher you will see a pair of AUDIO NOISE CANCELLING HEADPHONES resting on his neck and he was somewhat taken aback and his eyes widened in surprise at my sudden comment. "H-h-how d-did...y-you know..it was me...who saved you?" He stuttered in surprise as he looked at me unable to completely comprehend what I just said. I stood up on my tippy toes to looking up into his eyes then replied, "Because of your beautiful eyes that shine brighter than amethyst...and I also got a good look at your face when you turned back to look at me." I blushed but so did he as he muttered under his bteathe "No one has ever said something so nice about me before." So I wouldn't hear him."My name is Akira. Akira Kuran." I introduced myself then he smiled at me before turning my way completely. "Yudai. My name is Yudai Tachibana. It is nice to meet you Akira." Yudai introduced himself in return. "It is nice to meet you as well Yudai." I replied with a smile which embarrassed him greatly causing him to turn away blushing while scratching his cheek with his pointer finger."....Yeah...Sure...you..too...." Yudai replied his voice etched with embarrassed that was equivalent to his blushing face. "Aww...your blushing how cute." I giggedd but just made Yudai turn even redder. "I am not cute! I am heroic and manly!" Yudai exclaimed in frustration and embarrassment. "....Sorry..." I apologized feeling guilty for hurting his pride but he just smiled and said "It is alright." Then after a long pause his face beamed with excitement and looked at me with his jewel like eyes and asked ,"You like riding motorcycles, right?" I looked at him kinda of surprised and somewhat puzzled and replied,"Yeah I do..how did...you know that?" His expression began to beam even brighter as his smiled stretched from one ear to the other. Then with indescribable joy exclaimed,"Well then, why don't I take you for a ride on mine?! How does that sound to you?!" I then looked at him and replied "Sure!" With a smile still etched across his face he looked at me declaring, "That settles it then we are officially going on a date!" He then grabbed my hand and ran down the flight of stairs as fast as he could heading towards the lobby at full speed.
