The air was so thick with tension, my heart raced fast as Rigel led the way through the dense forest surrounding the rival faction’s base. My every step was calculated, every breath measured. I thought someone was following us earlier but then it was all in my head. The moonlight filtered through the canopy above, casting eerie shadows that danced across the ground. I followed closely behind, my heart pounding so hard I was sure the guards stationed ahead would hear it. .I did not even know whether what we were doing was the right thing but then the deeper part of my heart just trusted Rigel

“Remember the plan,” Rigel whispered without turning back. His voice was a sharp contrast to the stillness of the night, authoritative and unyielding. “Stay close, stay quiet, and most of all, please trust me.” The last words came out gentle and persuasive.

Trust. That word again. I wanted to believe him, to put my faith in his seemingly endless confidence, but the knot in my stomach told a diffe

    The room was a vortex of tension, Lucian’s chilling smile boring into me. Rigel stepped forward, placing himself protectively between me and the enemy. His stance was firm, his hand gripping the hilt of his weapon like it was an extension of himself.“This ends here,” Rigel said, his voice a low growl.“Oh, but it hasn’t even begun,” Lucian replied smoothly, his tone laced with amusement. He gestured lazily, and the room filled with an unsettling laughter, the sound coming from the shadowy figures that encircled us. I narrowed in confusion, I could not fathom what was brewing.Just as Rigel prepared to strike, a voice pierced through the din—a voice that froze the blood in my veins.“Stop!”I turned toward the sound, my heart sinking as a figure stepped into the dim light. It was someone I hadn’t seen in years, someone I had once trusted with everything: Alex.Alex had been more than a friend; he had been my confidant during some of the darkest days of my life.

    Every second stretching into eternity as I stood in the wrecked chamber. My pulse raced, the pressure of the moment pressing on my chest. Rigel was gone, dragged away into the enemy’s stronghold, and I was alone amidst the chaos I’d created.Lucian stood before me, his polished demeanor a stark contrast to the destruction I’d caused. He adjusted his suit as though the shaking walls and falling debris were mere inconveniences.“You’ve made quite the impression, Daniel,” he said, his voice smooth, almost mocking. “Raw power like yours is rare—untapped, uncontrollable. I have to say, I’m impressed.”The compliment felt like a slap in the face, his words laced with condescension. I tightened my fists, my knuckles whitening and my teeth gritting as the lingering energy buzzed just beneath my skin. Just watching him stare at me and listening to him talk sarcastically made my blood boil so much I wished I could swing a punch across his face.“Where is Rigel?” I demanded, my voice sharp, thou

    My lungs burned with every desperate breath as we stumbled through the dense underbrush. The night wrapped around us like a suffocating cloak, the silence shattered only by the distant howls of our pursuers. Rigel’s grip on my arm was firm but trembling—a sign he was far more injured than he let on.“Faster,” he urged, his voice strained.“I’m trying,” I snapped, my legs wobbling with exhaustion. “You’re not the one about to collapse.”His dark eyes flicked toward me, a flash of guilt visible even in the faint light of the crescent moon. “We can’t stop. If they catch us—”“I know,” I interrupted, swallowing the lump of fear in my throat. “I know what happens if they catch us.”A thick root snagged my foot, sending me sprawling into the dirt. Rigel was at my side in an instant, his strong hands pulling me upright. I could see the pain etched into his face, but he didn’t complain, didn’t falter, rather he acted as though he felt no pain at all.“We’re close to the river,” he said, his t

    The forest loomed around us, its shadows twisting and stretching as if mocking our frantic escape. My legs screamed for rest, but fear overrode exhaustion. Every snap of a twig or rustle of leaves sent my pulse racing. I clung tightly to the Rigel’s arm, his presence the only thing tethering me to sanity as the enemy’s pursuit grew louder behind us.“We can’t outrun them,” I panted, nearly tripping over a root. “They’re too close!”“Keep moving,” he growled, his voice a mix of determination and fatigue. “I won’t let them take you.”His words should have comforted me, but the sight of the blood staining his side and the unnatural glow radiating from the mark on his chest stole any sense of security. Whatever was happening to him was getting worse, and we were running out of time.Suddenly, the forest ahead of us seemed to shift. A figure emerged from the shadows, cloaked in darkness. My stomach twisted into a knot of dread.“Stay behind me,” Rigel ordered, stepping forward to shield me

    The forest was a labyrinth of shadows, its tangled roots and gnarled branches clawing at my every step. I followed Selene, her movements were so precise, like she knew this place better than the back of her hand. Behind me, was Rigel and he was silent, his presence both comforting and unnerving. I could not stop worrying about him and I did not even know why I cared so much for him. Anytime he was in pain it was as though I was in pain as well.“Are you going to tell us where we’re going, or do we just keep trusting the mystery tour guide?” I said, my voice sharper than I intended and I stopped walking.Selene glanced back, her expression unreadable in the faint moonlight. “Patience, Daniel. You’ll understand soon enough.”I bit back my frustration, letting out a heavy sigh. That was always the answer, wasn’t it? Soon enough. Like my whole life was just a series of delays, with me stuck in the waiting room of my own damn story.When we reached a wall of vines shimmering faintly unde

    The roar from the shadowy figure still rang in my ears as we sprinted through the crumbling sanctuary. My heart pounded like a war drum, each beat echoing the desperate urgency in Selene's voice.“Faster!” she yelled, clutching her side as we dodged falling debris and leaping shadows that seemed to claw at us from the walls.I tried to focus on my feet, on the uneven ground beneath them, but the sanctuary seemed alive with fury. Every step felt like a betrayal—as if the ancient magic here wanted to pull us back and consume us whole."Left!" Selene barked.We veered into a narrower tunnel. It smelled damp, earthy, with a hint of decay. My lungs burned, and my legs screamed for rest, but there was no time to stop. Behind us, the creature roared again, the sound impossibly close.“This way leads outside!” Selene said, her voice strained."How far?" I shouted, though I doubted I wanted the answer.Her silence was damning.Suddenly, the ground beneath us trembled again, and the tunnel ahea

    The forest was eerily quiet as we left the hollow sanctuary, as if holding its breath after our narrow escape. The cool night air did nothing to calm the fire raging inside me. My legs felt like jelly, but I forced myself to keep moving until we reached a clearing.“Here,” Selene said weakly, her hand gripping my shoulder. “Set me down.”I lowered her onto a moss-covered rock, the faint moonlight revealing the blood staining her sleeve. She winced, but her sharp glare dared me to fuss over her.“Don’t you dare faint on me now,” I said, trying to mask my worry with sarcasm.“I’m not the one trembling,” she shot back, though her voice lacked its usual bite.I ignored her and turned to him—Rigel—who leaned against a tree, silent as ever. His face was unreadable, but his body language betrayed him: his shoulders were tense, his breathing uneven. He did not die but rather he came back more injured.“That’s it,” I snapped, the words spilling out before I could stop them. “We’re not moving a

    The campfire crackled softly, its warm light casting glinting shadows on the trees surrounding us. The forest had become unnervingly quiet, as if the world itself held its breath, granting us this rare truce from chaos. Each step I took, I took in fear. Never did I think my life would get this chaotic—that every minute would feel like an attack. It felt like a scene straight out of a movie.Selene slept a few paces away, her figure curled against the cool night air, while I sat closer to the fire, struggling to process the storm of emotions brewing within me. I felt so fucked in that moment. I wanted to close my eyes and snap back to my former boring, shitty life, but I couldn’t.I glanced at Rigel, seated across the fire. His face was illuminated by the orange glow, the sharp lines of his features softened by the flickering light. He looked distant, lost in thought, yet there was tension in the way he clenched his jaw and held his shoulders taut, as if bracing for something inevitabl

    A Desperate SearchRigel couldn’t rest.Sleep was impossible when Daniel was still out there, trapped in the clutches of an ancient evil, slipping further and further away from who he once was.The world had already turned against him. The supernatural council had issued its final decree—Daniel was too dangerous to live.Every faction, every warrior, even supposed allies, whispered the same thing:“He’s lost. He’s gone. If you try to save him, you’ll die with him.”Rigel didn’t care.He had never cared about the odds.Because this wasn’t just about saving Daniel’s soul. It was about the truth.And the visions Daniel had been having—the ones of his past life, of his former self being betrayed—meant something far greater was at play.Someone had orchestrated all of this before.Someone had betrayed Daniel once before.And they were still here.Still close.A Hidden Trail of LiesThe answer had to be in the records.Rigel had spent hours, days, poring over ancient texts, searching for an

    Falling into the AbyssDaniel was drowning.Not in water, but in darkness.It pulled him down, suffocating, smothering his thoughts, his memories, his very sense of self. He could no longer tell where his body ended and the ancient evil began. He was weightless, yet trapped, caught in a current he couldn’t escape.It whispered to him—soft, coaxing, like silk against his skin.“Stop fighting, Daniel.”“This is who you were always meant to be.”He gritted his teeth, pressing his hands against his temples.“No,” he rasped. “I won’t—”Pain exploded through his skull.Visions surged before his eyes like a thousand shattered mirrors, each shard reflecting a different version of himself. A different past.And then—he wasn’t Daniel anymore.The Past That Wasn’t His… Or Was It?The world shifted, and suddenly, he stood in a grand hall bathed in golden firelight.Marble pillars stretched toward a domed ceiling, intricate carvings of celestial symbols glowing faintly. Massive banners hung from t

    A Line Drawn in BloodThe world had never felt colder.Rigel stood at the center of a battlefield that was seconds away from plunging into chaos.Daniel, the man he loved, the man who had once fought beside him, now stood against him, shadowed by an army that had pledged themselves to darkness.Behind Rigel, the council’s warriors—shapeshifters, sorcerers, and celestial beings—were ready to strike Daniel down at the first command.And Rigel knew.If he didn’t stop this war now, they would try to kill him.“Step aside, Rigel,” one of the council leaders commanded, voice sharp as a blade. “Daniel is no longer the man you knew. He has chosen his side.”Rigel’s hands curled into fists.“Then you’ll have to go through me first.”A ripple of silence spread through the battlefield. Disbelief. Shock. Even Daniel tilted his head slightly, as if trying to understand what Rigel had just done.“You don’t have to die with him,” another warrior spoke, her voice laced with urgency. “This isn’t your

    The world felt wrong. Something had shifted—something irreversible. The moment the temple fell into darkness, the supernatural world knew. Across realms, in the deepest corners of the world where shadows whispered secrets, the air changed. Something new had awakened. Or rather—something very, very old. The council was the first to sense it. The moment Daniel disappeared, the High Seers’ sacred flames went out. The oldest vampires found their blood turning cold. The fae felt the balance of magic shift. Even the rogue leader, miles away, staggered, clutching his chest as the dark power he had once served was drowned out by something much greater. Something he didn’t recognize. For the first time in centuries, the supernatural world was unified—not by alliances, not by treaties, but by a singular, overwhelming terror. Daniel was gone. And something else was in his place. Rigel’s Desperation “Bring him back!” Rigel’s voice was raw, hoarse from shouting. He was still kne

    Daniel had never felt so clear-headed. So strong. For the first time in what felt like an eternity, he wasn’t drowning in fear or doubt. He wasn’t fighting against something he couldn’t control. He was the control. Power thrummed through his veins—dark, intoxicating, and endless. He could feel the ancient force within him, guiding his steps, sharpening his thoughts. He stood at the head of Veyron’s army, gazing down at the battlefield stretched before him. A sea of supernatural warriors stood at the ready—creatures of the night, rebels who had long abandoned the council, and shadows that slithered through the ground like liquid death. And yet, despite their numbers, Daniel knew exactly where his eyes were drawn. Rigel. Standing defiantly, sword in hand, eyes burning with something painfully familiar—love and fury, hope and heartbreak, all at once. “Daniel,” Rigel called, voice cutting through the tension like a blade. “You don’t have to do this.” Daniel tilted his head, taki

    The Moment of SurrenderDaniel didn’t struggle.The moment he let the darkness swallow him whole, a cold, terrifying stillness settled over his body. It wasn’t painful. It wasn’t violent.It was acceptance.For weeks, he had been fighting—clawing, screaming, breaking—trying to hold on to something that was never meant to last. Trying to fight a war he had already lost.But this?This was peace.Veyron stood beside him, an eerie smile curling at the edges of his lips.“Finally,” he murmured. “You understand.”Daniel turned his head slightly, catching a glimpse of Rigel in the distance. He could still hear the echoes of his voice—pleading, furious, desperate.“Daniel, please!”But it was too late.The choice was already made.Daniel let out a slow, steady breath and closed his eyes. When he opened them again—they were completely black.Rigel’s DevastationNo.This wasn’t happening.Rigel’s hands were shaking. His lungs burned.

He couldn’t breathe.Daniel’s voice was distant, panicked, but Rigel couldn’t focus on anything except the burning pain in his lungs.Veyron was going to kill him.The realization sent a violent surge of magic through Rigel’s veins.With sheer, desperate willpower, he twisted his hand in a cutting motion, summoning a burst of white-hot energy. It shattered the unseen hold on his body, and he dropped like a stone, coughing violently.Before he could recover, a shadow loomed over him.“You’re persistent,” Veyron murmured, his eyes gleaming with amusement. “I respect that.”Rigel spat blood onto the ground and forced himself up, his entire body aching. “Go to hell.”Veyron simply smirked. “Oh, I plan to. And I’m taking Daniel with me.”Rigel’s chest tightened. His heartbeat was loud, deafening. He turned his gaze toward Daniel—who hadn’t moved.He was just standing there.Frozen. Shaken.

    Daniel sat in silence, his hands gripping the arms of the stone chair as the council’s voices echoed through the grand chamber. The walls of the ancient hall loomed around him, adorned with tapestries depicting wars, betrayals, and supernatural history—stories that now felt disturbingly familiar in his mind. Because this wasn’t just history. It was his history. And Rigel’s. He risked a glance at Rigel, who stood beside him with his arms crossed, his jaw clenched so tight it looked like it might shatter. He hadn’t said a word since Daniel had told him the truth—about the vision, about their past, about the curse that seemed to wrap around them like an inescapable noose. And Rigel was terrified. Not of Daniel. But of losing him. The council members, seated in a crescent of towering thrones, spoke in low, urgent tones. “If he was a danger then, he will be a danger now.” “The prophecy has warned us time and time again—his existence alone could tip the balance.” “Can he truly r
