Star-Crossed

"Every once in a thousand years a war would erupt between the creatures of light and the monsters they've created-, at least that's what I've read off."

Far away from home. With no friends and family. Mona's last resort was to become a thief. But everything changes once she meets Archer Walcott.

"I never wanted this, I never wanted this and you know that." She tightening her grip, "This is all your fault, how could you? Ever since I met you my world has been turned upside down and now..." She paused looking away as she couldn't meet my gaze. She couldn't even look at me anymore.

"I'm sorry but please let me expl-"

"Sorry!? Sorry won't bring them back and I definitely don't want to hear your explanation!" I couldn't see her face but I knew she was trying to hold back the tears that threatened to fall.

I knew it, I knew it from the very start that we could never be together, but some part of me always hoped, hoped some day that all this madness would fade away just like a dream.

We both stood there in defening silence, I wanted to say something but I couldn't, what would I say, what would I do? I couldn't help but think that she hated but I needed to know, "Do you hate me? Do you ever regret taking my hand that day? Do you wish we never met?"

Just before she could answer I heard footsteps, someone's coming.

***
Secrets become uncovered. Pasts are revealed. Under all this chaos could they still find love?

No one could say if this change was for better or for worse.
