Nikki Larousse

Nikki Larousse, who was reared in northeastern Malaysia, has always been enthralled with mythology from all around the world. She would always return to the escapism she found in writing things down, even if she had to focus on reality and pursue her higher education and work-life balance on the side. The majority of her creations are rooted in notorious Western myths, accounts, and folklore. She does, however, also incorporate Malay folklore from her cultural background into her stories. So, if you dare to dream of cunning heroes and fierce heroines who battle together to achieve their happily ever-afters, enter her realms of Larouverse.

Chapter 1: The Memory

Emily Chloros’ POV

I remembered it very well when my parents were being devoured by the mad foxes. Yeah, you heard me right, foxes. But not just any type of foxes that you find cute or anything. No, it was much worst.

Do you what kind of foxes would devour a complete human being without having any remorse? A fox shifter. That’s who. And I have been witnessing the whole thing when I was hiding under the table. It was a Saturday night in which our family was having a normal dinner.

But something happened when someone was knocking on the door of our kitchen door. I was 12 years old at the time and I was obvious to the whole thing until my mother told me to go to my room when she left with my father to check who it was.

But, being the stubborn child that I was, I was sitting alone under the table as I heard the heavy footsteps that came into the house. I was listening to the newcomers before they settled.

Well, Mr. Chloros, the man spoke in French, I see that you were having a very good time with your family right now. And here I thought you don’t have what I wanted, he said as he was looking at my father.

My father was protecting my mum when they were backing up from the door. I can hear that my chest was beating so hard that I saw a small shadow behind the table. I don’t want to move as I was invisible here right now. The shadow stopped in front of the table. I was closing my mouth with my hands to stop any noise.

You know my son, Jay. I hope that you will not be surprised if I say that he was looking for something, or rather someone in this house. I mean, you don’t have my money, so other payment will be… the man was trailing before I can hear anything else. 

Well, Jay? Do you get anything? The man that asked his son as the shadow was moving at the table. I think it was the shadow that was his son. God, why I have to be here right now? Why I don’t just run to my room when I supposed to?

Nothing’s here, Papa, the sweet voice of the young boy was coming into my mind. Suddenly, I felt safe with him. I don’t know why. His father grunted.

Pity, I would have loved it if your daughter would join us right now and we can take her away from your precious hands, the man said before my father was on his knees.

"Please, I beg you. Spare my child. Please just take whatever you want,’’ my father begged as he was looking at the man. I was seeing their shadows before the bad man was smirking at them.

Anything? He asked before he was looking at my father and mother.

Please, just let my daughter go, my father said as I was sobbing silently. The small shadow was moving closer to the table as I was trying not to make a sound. I think it was not a good idea
