The cab parked in front of the company. Am I ready to go in? What will be their reaction? I know some of them will think that I am a gold digger. Fuck. Should I quit?
I paid the driver and got out
the guard called and gave me a smile
He bowed and gave me a smile again.
I rode the elevator to our office floor, I don't really feel standing for so long. I feel like anytime soon I will fall. I feel dizzy and uneasy. I don't know. This is crazy. I am not feeling well since yesterday.
As I got out of the elevator, I feel like it's weird that those from other floors were smiling at me. I am used to being ignored, but why the fuck am I suddenly receiving smiles? I hope they are not pretending to be happy.
the newbie said and smiled at me
he smiled again
he left carrying some folders
As I walked to my work space, they keep smiling at me and bowing which made me feel awkward. I am not feeling well so I am not forcing myself to bow back. I will just give them a nod then smile.
Elara shouted while playing on her desk
What the fuck? It's 10 am and it's not lunch yet. How come she has the guts to play during work time?
Elara
Elara said and continued playing the game
Elara said
she looked at me and showed me her finger
she smiled
She looked at me
she asked
Elara
Elara glared
Elara shrugged her shoulder
she whispered
That is crazy.

I am currently sitting on the sofa, inside Hyunjin's office. I am alone and I get to see the office properly. It's quite big and the view is nice. I guess he is chilling here while we are dying.

secretary smiled and left
I sighed and looked at the table. He has three picture frame there. First is a pic with his family, second is with his friends, lastly-
WHAT THE HELL?! THIS PHOTO WAS TAKEN AFTER WE DID IT. OH MY GOSH. WE ARE JUST COVERING OUR BODY WITH BLANKET HERE.
Hyunjin asked
I forgot he is my boss.
he asked and sat on his swivel chair
He removed his necktie in one hand and opened the first two buttons of his long sleeves. He brushed hair to the back using his hand only.
I left his office and made him a coffee. I don't like the smell of coffee ever since, wait... I think I have tried drinking coffee before. I just forgot about it.
I entered his office and handed him the coffee
he asked nonstop
he said and stood up
I lazily stood there and waiting for his next thing that will make me do. Argh. If only I knew I will be a personal assistant, I will surely continue my work as a writer.
He went to me and-
KISSED ME!!!
he chuckled
I don't know but I just feel annoyed of him.

The light shines in on them and the woman approaches, saying that she is sorry if she hurt them, she only wanted the money. Drusilla spittles in the woman's face and she becomes very angry and punches her in the face, which instead of hurting her, breaks her hand. The captain of the ship there comes into the room and tells the woman to get her hand looked after. He tells Drusilla that is his wife and he has to tell her often not to steal from people on the beach. They eventually go to bail Comotos out of jail, not before he meets Lance, another prisoner. He is there because he practically destroyed the very place he was meant to protect. A fellow soldier broke his glasses right after he was knighted and Lance lost his temper and ended up in jail. Comotos' weapon tells him that this guy could be an asset to him and he bails him out when Drusilla finally shows up. There is so much more that happens but I don't want to spoil anything. :3

Three powers were discovered and harnessed so that they could be controlled. These powers are required to keep the planet alive, and need human bearers to focus and amplify their individual powers, but at what cost to their bearers? Power over the elements, controlling the flow of time, and dictating life and death are the powers that three young adults wield in Moonlight, but their lives will be changed forever. Moonlight follows the stories of Claire, Jayden, and Seraphine, as they learn to control these powers that desire to consume them. Author Notes: Hello! This isn't my first attempt at writing a story, and it isn't even my first attempt at writing this particular story, but I'm not in any way what I would call "experienced". I decided to upload my writing here because I just wanted to get my ideas out there, and I wanted to get some constructive criticism for my writing from the RRL community. All comments are welcome, but please try to keep them positive and constructive! If you leave a rating, I would appreciate it if you left a short explanation of what you liked and what I can improve on. I'll be uploading each chapter as I finish them, but this is still the first draft so anything and everything is subject to change. The cover art is drawn by me, but I'm in no way married to it. I just wanted something that showed the three magical sources, as I picture them in my head. If you do any art based on this story, send it to me! I would love to see it. I'll stop talking now, I hope you enjoy the story!
