The Fourfold Desires Chapter 71
Fiona’s POV“Fiona?”Fuck. I thought that if I behaved like I didn’t hear him, or ignored his question, he’d read my silence for what it was. Or at least he’d stop asking me at the very least. He didn’t and my prayers went up in flames. “I know this may sound sudden, and we’ll, unexpected. But if you don’t have anyone yet in mind, or if no one has asked you out yet, can I be your date and dance partner.?”Shit. I flickered desperate eyes to Rowan sitting next to him, practically begging her with my eyes to bail me out just this once, but she didn’t bat on eyelash my direction. Normally she has a keen sense of knowing whenever I was uneasy. But this time she ignored me. So I knew she was intentionally ignoring me. Luckily, before I could form a flimsy excuse for a reply, my phone buzzed in my pocket and I mentally sigh in relief for the interruption. “Hold on a sec, Lyn.” I mutter, excusing myself as I turned my phone to see a message from Kai. “Fiona, let’s go to the dance together

Fiona’s POVThe moment those words dropped, Rowan had vanished from my side before I could blink and stood in front of Helena’s clique in an instant. “The fuck did you say bitch?” Rowan asked, her hazel eyes burning wild fire, ready to spit out balls of fiery flames. Her entire aura was so dark with violent rage and deadly malice, the girl who had uttered those words went white with fear.Rowan advanced closer, nearly towering the girl, her body tense as a tight bow string. “I fucking dare you to repeat those words you just said. I didn’t quiet catch that.”“I-I…” the girl stammered, trembling so hard I almost felt pity for her. Almost. She threw pleading eyes at Helena who watched the drama unfolding in front of her with cruel amusement in her crystal blue eyes. How could someone so pretty be so evil?Some sort of unspoken words passed between Helena and the girl which somehow gave her the boost she needed to stand her ground, the fear in her eyes disappeared and was replaced with h

Fiona’s POVI couldn’t help but remain frozen in shock at the sight of Kai standing very close to me, and slowly, but gradually, the tightness in my chest eased but my wobbly legs were basically like sloppy noodles at this point so there was no need trying to move. Kai face looked carved out from marble. Chiseled, angular in his anger and empty in its blankness. It was truly terrifying to look at. “What exactly is it you’re accusing her of?” he whispered with a deadly calm that chased cold shivers down my spine.“Oh. It’s—it’s nothing. Really. Just a tiny misunderstanding.” Mrs. Smith stuttered, turning a deathly shade of white that made her look sick and clammy with sweat that appeared at her forehead in visible beads. Kai arched a taunting, grim brow at her barely audible stutter which was nothing compared to the angry screeching earlier. “A misunderstanding, you say? Then you won’t mind me asking other witnesses, no?”“Ọ-of course.” Mrs. Smith stammered. He gave a small thought

Fiona’s POVWe stepped into the bustling shopping mall, the bright lights overhead casting a warm glow on the sleek marble floors. The hum of conversations and the clatter of footsteps echoed as we took in the wide array of stores. Lyn and Kai, walking just a little ahead of us, exchanged a glance before turning back to us with a smile.I noticed a few familiar faces from our school. Probably do some last minute shopping for the school's big event. “We’ll catch up with you guys in a bit,” Lyn said, gesturing toward a hallway to the left. “We need to hit the restroom.”Kai gave a nod of agreement, their hands tucked casually into the pockets of their jackets. “You two go ahead. We’ll meet up soon.”Rowan shot Lyn a peeved look, narrowing her eyes dangerously to sluts at Lyn's words yet said nothing. With a slight shrug, I turned to Rowan, feeling the quiet excitement of the mall wash over me. We all knew what was coming—an afternoon of mindless browsing and light-hearted shopping.

Fiona’s POVI saw Rowan’s right eye twitch three times. It was the first tell and unconscious tell she did before going truly berserk and loosing her total shit to the dark fury simmering somewhere in her brain. It also meant that I had a window of five minutes before she drove her metal ringed fist into the attendants smug face.“The fuck did you say?” she whispered in a chillingly soft voice.The attendant flickered arrogant eyes to Rowan and held her ground in the face of Rowan’s rage. “Are you deaf? 8 don’t remember stuttering my words. Save all of us the trouble and tell your friend to leave.”A vein I didn’t know was visible appeared on Rowan’s forehead, pulsing frantically with the force of Rowan’s anger. Just time I was prepared for any sudden movement, not wanting a repeat of what happened today at the auditorium. There was no one to help me out should things go out of hand. I saw Rowan fist tighten, ready to smash into the attendant’s smirking face and quickly grabbed her

Fiona’s POVThe store attendant looked heavily reluctant to do Lyn’s bidding, standing there stiffly with her head held high like a Victorian housekeeper of a rather prestigious household, you know, the insufferable kind?“Is she hard of hearing?” Lyn questioned, his eyebrows arched in genuine amusement. “O-of course not, sir.” the head attendant stammered, dabbing her forehead at the beginnings of perspiration beading her broad forehead. “Really? Then she should do as she’s being told, no?” Kai’s voice boomed darkly from behind me. I couldn’t see him, but his voice alone held this arrogance almost similar to Jin.It was almost a turn on. Almost. Lyn held me tighter, corking his head thoughtfully will waiting for the attendant to begin. Again, I couldn’t see his face, but judging from the deathly shade the head store clerk and the said attendant turned, I’d bet my last dime, he plastered an unhinged look on his face. The one that gave me nightmares when I was younger. Kai’s voice

Fiona’s POVThe ride to the hospital was extremely daunting and scary, and I've known fear. But seeing Kai, bloody and fighting to stay conscious brought a different sense of fear to my heart. What if he died right there in my arms? The horror of that alone sent a different chill down my spine.The news of Kai’s injury spread through his family like wildfire, igniting a storm of emotions. His parents had been the first to receive the call from the Lyn. By the time they arrived, Kai was already being treated, his face pale against the stark whiteness of the hospital bed.But outside the sterile walls of the ER, the family’s elders were stirring with discontent. Among them, whispers turned to murmurs, then to full-blown accusations. Leveled mostly at Lyn and I than Rowan. "How could you let this happened?!" Kai's mother, Lauren snapped at Lyn with tears brimming her eyes, rattling his body so hard it was almost comical. "This is what happens when an Alpha loses control," muttered one

Fiona’s POVThe evening had settled into a comfortable rhythm, the golden glow of string lights casting soft, shifting patterns across the dance floor. Laughter and music swirled in the air, mingling with the scent of spiced cider and warm candle wax. The clink of glasses and the occasional burst of applause from the dance floor only added to the magic of it all.Halfway through the night, the host—an older man with a bowtie slightly askew and a theatrical flair to his voice—tapped the microphone and announced the start of the free dance session. A cheer rippled through the crowd, and people eagerly made their way to the floor, partners twirling and hands clasping as the music shifted to something more lively.I turned, searching for Rowan only to see her dancing and laughing with some guy. I could swear she was dangerously tipsy and on the verge of being drunk. But then again, she was too much of a free spirit to need liquor courage. All she need was to simply exist and people cou

Fiona’s POVThe moment Lyn arrived, the air seemed to shift, turning sharp and heavy with his presence. His footsteps echoed against the tiled floor, each step firm and deliberate. My heart pounded in my chest as I looked up at him. His usually charming,, playful face was now a mask of cold fury. His pale complexion had drained further, but his eyes—those dark, piercing eyes—burned with something terrifying.He took in the mess around us—the broken chair, the scattered books, my tearful, broken expression and his face darkened further. His lips curled downward, and his voice, low and sharp like a blade slicing through ice, sent a shiver down my spine.“Who,” he bit out, his words slow and deliberate, “gave you the courage to cause trouble right under my nose?”The room fell into a suffocating silence. The group of girls, who just moments ago had been so full of confidence, now shrank back. Even their ringleader, the one who had mouthed off tome first, looked pale. But she still stra

Fiona’s POVThe news about the four Alphas fierce competition for me intensified, spreading like wild fire around the entire school. And with the popularity and rumors came new enemies I knew nothing about. I haven’t seen Helena much ever since I resumed school, and rumors of she and Jin’s untimely break up was gossiped about until went stale. I heard she transferred departments so that was why I rarely saw her. Unfortunately, her suddenly transferring majors left her old clique without a leader. Which was a relief considering the fact that I didn’t have to any other encounters with her. That didn’t mean the trouble stopped. I've been feeling uneasy all morning and had somehow gotten used to stares and whispers. But the moment I stepped into the corridor leading to the library, I felt it—the shift in the air, the weight of unwelcome stares pressing down on me. I wasn’t alone.I barely had time to register the approaching footsteps before a group of girls blocked my path. At the cen

Fiona’s POVJin’s confession filled my brain all day, distracting me through lectures, while having lunch with Rowan. I still hadn’t given him an answer. And then there was, Kai. His persistence was something to be admired, if not entirely irritating. I can’t mention how many instances I have gone out of my comfort zone to avoid him. “Fiona, he’s here again,” Rowan teased spearing a forkful of salad onto her mouth, wagging her brows impishly.“Don’t even start,” I muttered, rubbing my temples.“I’m being serious.” she said, watching something behind me with keen, perpetually mischievous eyes. “And he’s heading this way.”“Oh my fucking goodness.” I sighed, the throbbing in my eyes intensified. “I’m going to the bathroom.”Rowan looked thoughtful. “You could. Or you could sit there and listen to what he wants to say.” “I already what he wants to say.” I muttered. “He’s like a fucking bulldozer at this point.” Rowan chuckled. “I think you’re the only thing on his wants to bulldoze.”

Fiona’s POVI could feel the weight of the moment pressing down on me as my words hung in the air. The once lively crowd had gone eerily silent, the tension thick enough to cut with a knife.My gaze swept across everyone present, taking in the reactions of the Kai family elders. They exchanged glances, their expressions a mixture of surprise and confusion, as if they couldn’t quite believe what they had just heard.And then, there was Kai. The disappointment in his eyes deepened with every passing second, the flicker of hope he had clung to now dimming into something heavier—something dangerously close to resentment. I felt him grow cold beside me. His jaw tightened, his lips pressed into a thin line, but he said nothing. He didn’t have to. The disappointment radiated off him like a slow-burning fire, scorching in its quiet intensity.Eugene cleared his throat quietly, searching for what words to use. “A-are you certain we can’t change your mind?” he asked weakly. Jin nearly snappe

Fiona’s POV“Hey, Rowan.”“Fiona? Where are you? I’ve been trying to contact you for three days now! How are you? Are you okay? Please tell me you are?” Rowan’s panicking voice blasted the confines of the car.I grinned at her terrified voice then affected a sober voice, “What if I tell you I’m not okay, and that I’m on my way to the ER to treat my broken bones.”“What!?” Rowan screeched. “Fuck, what hospital is it? Fiona speak the fuck up—” I cackled at her fear. “I’m fine, Rowan. Honest.”“I’m glad my concern is amusing to you.” Rowan hissed. I immediately sobered up. “You know I didn’t mean that. I was joking, darling. I promise I’ll tell you everything when I get back, okay?”“Fine. God knows you owe me one.” Rowan said smartly. “Are you on your way home?”.I glanced at the familiar surroundings zooming past mea before replying, “Uh, no. I’ve got drop by Jin’s house first but I’ll see you later.”“Okay. Are you sure you’re alright?” Rowan probed once more.“Yes, Rowan. I am.” I

Fiona’s POVPanic clawed at me. This was all too much pressure. I watched as Jin rose slowly to his feet, eyeing the writhing shadow monsters skeptically."Okay. Think. There must be something you've missed, Fiona. Think!" I muttered to myself, pressing my eyes closed in concentration. The ancient texts in that old grimoire, the whispered instructions and chants were failing us. My mind raced, a whirlwind of fragmented knowledge, desperate for a solution. Kai was down, Soren and Jin was hurt, and the shadow beasts were relentless. We were running out of time."Think, Fiona, think!" I screamed internally. I scanned my memory, flipping through the pages of countless arcane tomes. Then, a flicker. A forgotten passage. A detail I’d dismissed as insignificant. It was a footnote, almost an afterthought, about alternative activation methods. It was vague, cryptic, but… it resonated. A spark of hope ignited in the darkness of my despair.Immediately, I snapped urgent eyes to the central
The Fourfold Desires Chapter 95
Fiona’s POVMy heart hammered against my ribs, a frantic drumbeat against the encroaching darkness. No sooner had we begun unloading than I felt them – the pursuers. Their presence was a tangible thing, a cold dread that prickled my skin."The crystals go there," I pointed to a patch of worn earth, where the markings I had made were still visible under my flashlight. "Soren, connect that line to the north node.""Got it, Fiona," growled Soren, his massive form already hefting a heavy stone."Every one get into the circle and do not leave no matter what until I say so." I announced. I focused, pushing aside the fear that threatened to overwhelm me. The magic circle was intricate, a delicate web of power that needed precise placement and intention. My fingers flew across the surfaces of the stones, tracing the ancient symbols and items we had gathered then began chanting the forgotten words. The air shimmered, a faint blue glow beginning to emanate from the circle’s center."They're a

Fiona’s POVThe cavern shimmered with an eerie blue light, the jagged ice crystals reflecting a cold glow that pulsed like a living thing. But we weren’t alone.A sharp gust of wind howled through the chamber, carrying with it a flurry of frost. Then I saw them—ice elemental elves, their lithe bodies shimmering like frost-covered glass. Their piercing, glowing eyes locked onto us, and in an instant, they attacked.“Move!” I shouted, diving behind a frozen stalagmite as razor-sharp ice thorns shot toward us in a deadly barrage.The Alphas scattered, their movements swift and precise. Jin, ever the protector, positioned himself in front of me, sword raised. A shard of ice whizzed past my ear, slicing a few strands of my hair before embedding itself into the ground. I clenched my fists, summoning my energy, but the elves weren’t giving us a moment to breathe.“Go for the leader!” Lyn growled, rolling under a streak of frost magic that turned the stone floor to ice.The elves moved in un

Fiona’s POVThe first clue had led us to the deep swamp behind the old site. It was said that a rare plant, Dark Light Algae, grew here—an essential material for activating the magic array. But as I stood at the swamp’s edge, inhaling the thick, musty air, I couldn’t help but wonder if the legends had conveniently left out the part where we’d have to risk our lives to retrieve it.A dense, eerie fog coiled around twisted trees, their gnarled roots jutting out of the soggy ground like skeletal fingers grasping at the air. Every few steps, the murky water gurgled as if something unseen was shifting beneath the surface. The air was thick, humid, and heavy with the scent of rot and stagnant water.“Ugh, this place reeks,” I muttered, wrinkling my nose as my boots sank into the soft, treacherous earth. Each step was a gamble—too much pressure, and the ground threatened to swallow me whole.“Watch your footing,” Kai warned, his voice strained with concentration as he tested the ground ahe
