Kylan

I stepped into the library, instantly feeling completely out of place. Even though it was the first time I had set foot here, I already knew it was going to be my last—and I could hardly believe this was how far I was willing go to find out the truth behind Puppy’s eyes.

The place was massive, filled with book I would never care to read. It was old-fashioned, and I could tell not a lot had changed over the years. The library looked on the verge of collapsing.

I walked to the desk toward the woman who was busy flipping through some papers. Although she must’ve definitely felt my presence, she didn’t glance up, and I was forced to look at the round glasses on her nose.

“Yo,” I tapped my finger on the desk, keeping my voice low because, apparently, that’s what you do in a library. “Do you got anything on Soothsayers and their eyes?”

The woman finally looked up, lifting a single brow. “A very good evening to you too,” she said, sarcastically.

I sighed, not in the mood for smart ass

    VioletI brushed through my hair, making sure not to miss a single strand before pulling it back into my usual ponytail. It was still bright and early in the morning, but class had yet to start.Today was a busy day, but I didn’t mind. The thing I looked forward to most was Elite training—and even more so, the training with Kylan, which would finally continue.Only a day had passed since we went downtown, and it had only been hours since I had last seen him, touched him—but I couldn’t stop thinking about him.With a smile plastered on my lips, I glanced down at the bracelet on my wrist. It was simple, but it meant something to me because Kylan gave it to me. Well, he didn’t exactly give it to me—but he had paid for it.Pretty much the same thing.Would he still have his, or would he have already thrown it in the trash? Something like that wasn’t too far-fetched for Kylan.A knock on the door pulled me from my thoughts.“Ready?” Trinity called out.“Coming!” I yelled back, grabbing my

    VioletIt was late, training had ended—and yet I found myself still in the training room, the only one left.Commander Jorn’s training would be brutal, and I wasn’t about to embarrass myself again. The trauma from his training was still fresh, and I would rather die than have him yell at me again.I needed to keep up with the Elite team, and if Kylan wasn’t going to train me—fine, I would do it myself.Gritting my teeth, I tried to focus on my planking exercise. Three minutes had passed, my arms were shaking—but I was still holding on. My eyes were wide open, and I refused to close them because whenever I did, I was forced to think about him.Kylan.He had a way of sneaking into my thoughts.Nate’s words kept repeating in my head. “Whatever excuse he just gave you? It’s bullshit.”His words irritated me, but he was right. Kylan was all about training me, especially after we had missed a few days—and now he had suddenly changed his mind.I thought we had reached some kind of understand

    VioletI stepped back, my heart pounding as three other girls revealed themselves. Chrystal stood at the front, carrying a cold, cruel smile.Behind her, the girls stood with crossed arms, like they had this all planned out—but the thing that made my stomach twist the most was when my eyes landed on one of the girls I recognized. It was the girl who had seen me in the halls of the boys’ dorms not once, but twice.I looked behind me for a second, my eyes shifting to the door—my only escape.It was either that, or face whatever fate they had in store for me.Without thinking, I spun around and grabbed the handle, trying toWithout thinking, I spun around and grabbed the handle, trying to open the door—but it wouldn’t budge.“Don’t bother,” Chrystal spat, though I could hear the amusement in her voice. “It’s locked.”Before I could turn around again, a strong grip yanked my ponytail. A yelp escaped my lips as the pain shot through my scalp, and I stumbled, trying to fight back—but then a

    Violet As those words slipped past my lips, my heart stopped. I fluttered my eyes, panicking. Fuck. Me and my big mouth. Chrystal’s expression went completely blank, and the girls mirrored her. Seconds later, those dead eyes burned with rage, and her lips curled into something beyond a smirk. She seemed crazy, mentally unstable. “Take her!” she barked. “What? No, wait!” I protested, looking around frantically as the two girls dragged me by the arms. Even as I tried to stop it with my feet, they were too powerful, and when Amber removed the cover to a manhole, I knew exactly what was about to happen. Panic surged through me as the girls moved closer to the tub. “No! Let me go!” I screamed. “Please, I’m begging you!” I kicked, wiggled, twisted with all the strength I had, but it wasn’t enough. Each time I restrained, I felt their nails digging deeper into my skin. “Hold her!” Chrystal shouted, and before I knew it, a sharp kick landed on the back of my leg, making me collapse r

    KylanI twisted the ring on my finger—a habit I couldn’t seem to get rid off whenever I was in deep thoughts. Nate’s voice was nothing but a blur in the background.We were sitting in the dorm lounge, waiting for curfew to hit. The place was quiet, aside from Nate’s endless ranting about some girl he wouldn’t remember next week.“So what do you think?” he asked, demanding an answer. “Do I see her a second time or not?”I blinked, trying to remember what he had exactly discussed. “I…think you shouldn’t. Since when do you do that?” I muttered just enough to get him off my back.And he did just that, starting yet another rant while my mind drifted away with the only important thing at the moment.Puppy is half witch.The thought had been stuck in my head all day, refusing to leave me alone. It didn’t make any sense—none of it.She wasn’t a Hastings…She wasn’t a Bloodrose…Then what was she, and most importantly how the hell did she ended up as a Bloodrose?All I knew were a few facts.S

    KylanI fought through the pain, dragging my feet toward the door. I didn’t care about the pain or the curfew—all I knew was one thing.The pain wasn’t mine, it was hers—and I had to find her.The air outside was cold as I left the building to head to the Lunar hall. My head still throbbed, but I pushed away the feeling and focused entirely on finding her—Puppy.In the meantime I tried texting her, calling her—but she didn’t answer.As I reached the hall and headed to her floor, several girls stared at me—but I ignored them. I didn’t have time for their giggles or whispers, and I didn’t care about the rumors that would surely follow—Violet was all that mattered.What if she hurt herself because of my words?Once I stood in front of her dorm I knocked hard on the door, not giving a damn about who would open it. Chrystal, her sidekick, Puppy’s sidekick—I didn’t care.I knocked again, and again—but there was still nothing.“There’s no one there,” a soft voice spoke. I turned around, look

    Violet“Violet.”I groaned, trying to move as I heard my name being called, but all I could see was darkness. There was no light, only emptiness.That’s right.I couldn’t see.“Violet,” the voice came again, but this time I recognized it. It was Kylan’s voice.I felt a pair of hands on my shoulders, coming through my soaked clothes.There was a slight flicker of hope. He came for me.Am I dreaming?Am I dead?“Kylan?” I whispered hoarsely, my throat still hurting from the impact of the water reaching my lungs.“Hey,” his hands reached for my arms, gently pulling me up. I flinched, and my breathing quickened as I began to realize the situation I had found myself in.“I…I can’t see,” I breathed, feeling panic rise in my chest. My nails scratched against the cold, rough concrete beneath me. “I can’t see!”“Violet,” Kylan spoke softly, “I’m here. It’s going to be okay.”I shook my head wildly.No, no it wasn’t going to be okay—I was blind!“I can’t see!” My voice cracked. “I can’t—”“Viol

    Violet“Kylan!” I pleaded. “I know you’re angry right now, and you want to hurt her, but don’t do it.”I heard him draw in a sharp breath. “How did you—”“Don’t ask,” I interrupted, tightening my grip on his wrist. “Just please—don’t do anything stupid.”“But she hurt you, Violet,” he stated coldly. “She disrespected me too, her future king—and now she’ll have to deal with the consequences like anyone else back home would.”“No,” I shook my head, feeling my fingers tremble on his wrist. “Please stay with me, please…”All I wanted was to keep Nate safe. I didn’t want the two of them to get into it because of me. I would deal with Chrystal, or maybe I wouldn’t—but whatever happened, it would be on my terms.“Please…”I felt a hand on top of my head, then his fingers threaded through my damp hair. A relieved breath left my lips as I realized I had gotten through to him—for now.“Will you at least let me bathe you?” he asked softly, his words surprising me.“Yes, please.”If that’s what i

    Adelaide“I’m here to keep an eye on my mate,” Alaric whispered back, leaning back in his chair like he owned the place. “I need to protect you.”Protect me from what? He was the one who needed the protection.“If you hate me that much, just pretend like I’m not here,” he shot me a bold wink, and that’s when I knew this guy was going to be a big problem.~That night at the dorm, I paced back and forth in the kitchen—thinking about the boy who was messing with my head.What was he on about, talking about how he had to keep his eyes on his mate? He had completely lost it.I bit my nails, trying to come up with the best solution to get rid of my not-so-little problem—but I didn’t know what to do anymore. I was trying to protect him, to keep him safe from me—but he was like a plague. He was unavoidable, always came back.Yet, a part of me was happy to see him, happy to see that he was ready to fight for me.No one ever had.Not even Grandpa Aelius when Mom made me leave our home.A huff

    AdelaideJames had his arm wrapped around my waist as we entered the classroom for Elite training. He always held me close, like he was proud to show me off—but at times like this, I hated it.Times when Jane couldn’t stop glaring at me…She always had that same look on her face, like she wanted to burn a hole through me—and I couldn’t blame her for feeling the way she did. She believed in mates, and she believed he was hers. In her eyes, I took what belonged to hers.I glanced at James, who was too calm and didn’t seem to care or notice. At times, I couldn’t help but wonder if it was nothing more than an act.How was he not longing for her? Falling apart? Wasn’t that the way of their Moon Goddess?Before I could try to understand, Elyx appeared out of nowhere and stole me away from James, pulling me into a tight hug.“Addy!” he called out.“Lixie!” I said back, throwing my arms around him.When I pulled away, I kissed his cheek, and he smiled ear to ear. The longer I spent around him

    Adelaide“Smile!” the photographer called out.I wrapped my arms around Claire, pulling her closer, and gave my best smile for the camera. It was the best I could do. After all, this group picture would be hanging on the walls of Lunar Hall. The bright flash went off, and for a split second, his face appeared in my mind—Alaric.I blinked, trying to shake the thought away. His personality, his presence…there was something unique about him that I had never seen before in anyone. His glow, his kindness, his innocence—and Mom wanted me to destroy that.It had already been a few weeks since I’d last seen him, and I had been doing everything I could to avoid him. Honestly, it wasn’t that difficult. Alaric was mostly surrounded by guards, and even if he wasn’t—I was sure he’d respectfully just stay out of my way.Maybe I was insane, but I wanted to be around him—and at the same time, I knew I couldn’t because I had to protect him.Every time he was near, I could sense it somehow. It didn’t m

    AdelaideIt was early—too early for anyone to be up, but I didn’t care. I found myself knocking on Esther’s office door, waiting for her to open up.I hadn’t closed a single eye. How could I?All I could think about was that vision, and it played in my head over and over again.The way Alaric turned into that thing…I knew we were dark witches, but had Mom completely lost it? Was she actually attempting to bring back Lord Baelor, the same god of the underworld I had called a myth?The chaos that would cause would be impossible to fix, especially if he would have access to Alaric’s wolf on top of all.Even though she took her time, the door eventually creaked open, revealing Esther. She stood there with a calm smile. “Good morning, Adelaide,” she said. “You’re up bright and early.”I didn’t have time for her crap, not today. Just like last night, I forced myself into the office before taking an uninvited seat at her desk.Esther sighed softly, mumbling something under her breath as she

    KylanI held Puppy tightly in my arms, feeling her limp body pressed against mine. Her chest rose with each breath, but her glowing eyes were closed. It had been a while now.The back of my fingers brushed her cheek. “Pup,” I whispered, worried. She hummed softly in response, but she didn’t open her eyes.The one responsible, that sick Soothsayer, just sat there and watched me without doing a single thing—like all of this was normal to him.Pissed, I met Aelius’s gaze. “What did you do to her?”Aelius took a breath, looking around the cage. His eyes, which had been white before, had already dimmed to their original color. “Let her be,” he spoke. “She’s fine. She’s dreaming.”“Dreaming?” I spat, narrowing my eyes at him. “You made her like this. She’s not dreaming—what did you do to her?”“She’s in the Veil,” Aelius raised his voice slightly, as if that explanation made things better.The Veil?What the hell was that supposed to mean?“What is that?” I snarled, glaring at him.“Time wi

    AdelaideI followed Alaric with my eyes, watching as he walked away, disappearing behind the bush. Not long after, I caught a glimpse of his toned back as he removed his clothes.My cheeks turned red. His back was turned, but it was almost impossible not to notice how strong it looked—the muscles in his broad shoulders, his powerful arms.That guy with the killer smile and killer body could probably really kill someone if he really wanted to. After all, he was the Alpha Prince. I was sure Mom had a purpose for him, one that would make sense eventually.A low growl, followed by the sound of cracking bones, snapped me out of my thoughts. It wasn’t a sound I hadn’t heard before—but it never failed to amaze me.Alaric’s limbs twisted, his breathing deepened, and his body disappeared between the bushes. Then it went silent.My jaw dropped as I stepped forward, anticipating the shift.“Holy shit,” I managed between laughter.A massive black wolf appeared from behind that same bush. The blue

    AdelaideIt was already dark when I sat on the grass, leaning against the big oak tree in the woods. Cold shivers ran through my body as I thought about the words Esther had used to describe Alaric.The chosen one…the vessel.What did it mean, and why hadn’t Mom told me about it? The worst part was sticking to the plan and doing as I was told without knowing exactly what she was planning.I only knew one thing. It was for the good of the witches—my people.They were my priority, and all I had to do was follow Mom’s instructions. So what was I so worried about?After a while, I started to feel impatient, wondering if I had pushed things too far. Alaric was timid, careful—and maybe I had overestimated him, thinking he would really sneak out to meet a witch he barely knew.Maybe it was time to consider other options, like waiting out that Elite team that Principal Sterling was planning.At least, that’s what I thought—until I heard faint footsteps rustling through the leaves. I shot my h

    AdelaideIt was a simple yes, no—question. One I hoped she would answer.Esther’s lips curled into a small, smile. “What makes you say so?”“For starters, that ridiculous source of power I feel coming from you,” I said, crossing my arms. “That’s not normal for a shifter.”“Incredible,” her breath hitched in surprise. “You are the High Priestess daughter, and a child of blood indeed,” she said. “Not even your fellow witches could sense it, but you can.”She stood straight, opening the door to her office. “Get in,” she gestured with her hands.I waited for a moment. There was still some time left before I would meet Alaric—so why not?As soon as I entered Esther’s office, she closed the door behind me.“So you are a witch?” I tried again, needing a clear answer. “A dark witch I assume?”I scanned the clean and neat office with my eyes. The place one worked said a lot about a person, and I could tell this was a woman who liked control—hence her reaction when I called her out.“I guess th

    AdelaideIt was the day I was supposed to meet Alaric in the woods. The sun was starting to set, and I stood in front of the mirror in our dorm, getting ready for the night.This was all I had looked forward to. Classes at Starlight were so easy that I already knew I would fly through those four years without breaking a sweat, so that wasn’t any of my concern.My only focus was Alaric and getting closer to my goal for the good of our people.“Hey,” Claire greeted, shuffling out of her bedroom in a cozy onesie. Her blond hair was tied up in a bun, and her eyes looked tired as she plopped down on the couch.“Going somewhere?”I glanced at her through the mirror. “Sneaking out,” I said casually.“To see James?” she guessed, raising a brow.I just smiled, letting her think whatever she wanted. The less Claire knew, the better.We had grown close quickly, and if I wasn’t with James, I was with her. We shared most of the same classes and spent more time together than I had expected. She was
