Clarissa

Clarissa stared into the dark eyes of Centra. Her heartbeat was unnaturally fast. If what the girl said was true, they wouldn’t need King Righ. But of course, it came with a warning. 

As long as Clarissa was still alive, the pendant could be retrieved intact. The creatures and other pursuers that she had not known were on her trail would kill her to get it back. Its current placement protected Clarissa’s life, and she would not be able to lose it.

She could still offer the pendant the purple sage had given her. Try to trick the werecats into believing they had the key. But if King Righ had known it was not the necklace she wore, then so would the werecats.

    Blake Valentine went ahead to find out where Clarissa was. The remaining shadow warriors gathered around Blake as he stormed the monastery. As they moved, monks would try to stop them, and his warriors would stay behind to fight. It allowed Blake to move unhindered. There was going to be no stopping him. It was time they left the monastery. King Righ would be pissed about what the monks were doing to Clarissa. As he moved with purpose and determination, he knew telling her everything would take courage, but it would prove his affection for her. There was no reason good enough to hide his truth from her.

    Clarissa Clarissa found herself once again floating in the comforting darkness of her mind. She was confused about what she had been doing. Her head pounded, and there was severe pain across her face. What happened? There was also an urgency. She had to be somewhere, do something. She wasn’t sure what it was she must do, though. It had to do with whispering voices and King Righ. She had to bring him back so she could witness his glory! It was on her to do what was needed for the world to know him again.

    Angel “Over here.” The young girl called. “We found him!” A chunky boy about five years old walked over to the bars the girl was pointing at. The dungeon cell windows were street level. The boy gave the bars a quick yank and pulled them out of place. Two other children lowered her to the ground inside the cell. She walked up to the statue that had been a man last night. He took the face of the movement, inspiring the children to come together. Then he weakened the heinous monster so they could finish the fight. Last night, it was a heinous monster, but it hadn’t always been. S

    Blake Day was ending swiftly, and Centra had been sitting next to Clarissa for hours with her eyes closed and her hands neatly folded in her lap. While in the village, he had been able to procure three quarter-horses, which seemed in excellent shape. The villagers took care of their animals. But he was getting impatient. After returning, he had the time to hunt a couple of rabbits, make a fire, cook a stew and eat. The stars shone overhead, and he would need to sleep if they did not awaken soon. He considered the amount of mind-controlling substances she had consumed. He had seen men completely lose their minds with less exposure. All he could do was hope that Centra was

    ClarissaClarissa watched herself and King Righ getting affectionately acquainted in his dark castle. The whole scene was romantic and tender. But it terrified her that she had no control of what was happening.A small part of her wanted to resist getting romantically familiar with the evil king, while the majority of her yearned for his glory. She was having trouble making sense out of it. She couldn’t remember when she developed her devoted fascination for the evil king. Yet the devotion held her tightly in its claws. Eventually, she gave up on trying to gain control of the runaway dream. Instead, she

But his efforts were futile as the creature’s strength sorely overpowered his own.It took several punches for Blake to realize who was attacking him. His head was ringing, and his face throbbed. Adrenaline pumped through his veins.It was a natural occurrence in humans. Every creature had a flight or fight response; most monsters, though, did not get the adrenaline boost.

    Clarissa As the blue cloud dissipated, a sudden rush of darkness overwhelmed Clarissa’s senses. Shadows swallowed the world around. A chill ran through her soul. The bond with Stefan and Blake thrummed with concern, but she was already being pulled away.She stood alone in a broken landscape. The sky was a mass of swirling black clouds, blotting out any light. The ground cracked and crumbled, swallowing remnants of once-great cities. Rivers of molten lava snaked through the land, burning everything in their path. The smell of sulfur and ash assaulted her senses.Clarissa’s heart pounded. People ran in every direction, their screams piercing the air. The devastation was total. The earth shuddered, the once-vibrant land reduced to a hellscape of devastation and despair.Her eyes were drawn to the sky, where twisted winged creatures circled. Once noble beasts like her own Mimi, they were now corrupted and enslaved by the malevolent force that brought this destruction.And then, at the ce

    BlakeBlake was eager for the ceremony, having studied its technical aspects all week. Yet nothing had prepared him for the overwhelming magnificence of the experience. The ceremony had not been performed for hundreds of years, as the werecat village patiently awaited the hatching of the sacred eggs. Each generation practiced the ritual in reverence, their chants echoing through the ages in hopes that an Onyx Sage would soon emerge. Now, with the arrival of not one, but three Onyx Sages, the village buzzed with unprecedented excitement. The rhythmic chanting of the villagers infused the air with potent magic, each syllable amplifying the mystical energy that surrounded them. This ancient ceremony was designed to cement the bond between the familiar and the sage, intertwining their souls and enhancing their powers but the effect of multiple Onyx Sages in the same ceremony was uncertain. As the chants grew louder, the magic intensified, weaving an unbreakable connection that would ens

    ClarissaBefore the door creaked open, the raucous roar of the massive crowd echoed through the stone hallway, a low, thunderous vibration that pulsed in time with Clarissa’s heart. Each footstep amplified the charged energy in the air. As they stepped out onto the stage where they would bind to their familiars, the blinding sunlight turned the bustling world into a bright blur.As her eyes adjusted, a sea of faces stretching as far as the eye could see came into sharp focus. Hundreds of onlookers packed the grand courtyard, their collective breath held in anticipation. The transition from the thunderous noise inside to the outside’s deafening silence was startling. Heads turned in unison, eyes wide with reverence and curiosity.Stefan subtly shifted his stance, placing himself slightly in front of Clarissa, as if shielding her from unseen dangers the crowd represented. Chief Yungerr stepped forward to address the crowd.“After ages of darkness, the Onyx Sages have been reborn with th

    Clarissa Glowing purple flora illuminated the bath cavern, casting a soft light over the shimmering pool of teal-lit water, as Clarissa scrambled out of the tub and grabbed the robe hanging just inside the door of the bath chamber. Mimi followed her. But she didn’t see the mysterious elf anywhere.Where had she gone? Clarissa bolted down the hall, checking down every corridor she passed. But they were as empty as her understanding of the elf’s words. Who was going to ask her to go somewhere? Where? And even more confounding, what truth would be revealed there?The cave’s corridor pulsed with flickering light, ancient runes burning like warning embers. Shadows twisted violently as Clarissa sprinted after the mysterious woman, her breath sharp, the air electric with impending doom. Each step echoed louder, pushing her forward through the narrowing path.At the last corridor, Clarissa gasped and her eyes widened. An old woman in a lavender robe huddled in the corner.

    Clarissa Clarissa lifted her sleepy head from the table, her thoughts spinning sluggishly. The knock that woke her sounded again. Jumping up, she ran to let Stefan in. She fell asleep waiting for him. Disappointment gripped her when she saw the werecat ready to show them to their lessons again. She rubbed her eyes and stared at her confusedly. There was no way it was time already. She hadn’t even been to bed yet. Blake came out of his room looking refreshed and rested. Clarissa felt the dry spit on her face and knew that her hair was a mess. She couldn’t sit in front of everyone all day like this. “Good morning.” Blake greeted them, smiling warmly. Clarissa tried not to let his chipper attitude bother her. But she was exhausted and frustrated. Ignoring his cheer would be challenging; however, it was not his fault that she had not slept. “Just give me a minute to get ready.” She asked, realizing that they had not brought breakfast this morning. She went into her room to cl

    Stefan Clarissa kept making strange faces at him throughout dinner. He didn’t appreciate being stared at while he was eating. The chipper conversation rubbed him raw until he could no longer sit still. But once he had Arcadia and Evander in his room, the pressure started to lessen. He had to focus on what was going on back home. Those affairs required his attention now. But his mind forced itself back to the fact that Clarissa had chosen to sit next to Blake during dinner. She hadn’t even sat across from Stefan. A wicked voice in his head questioned what they were doing under the table. The question made no sense. Clarissa kept her hands visible the entire meal. But did Blake? Stefan couldn’t remember, but he did remember the pink flush of her cheeks as she ate. “What do you wish to discuss?” Arcadia asked, sounding like a soldier reporting for duty. She and Evander stood near the closed door at parade rest. Stefan rumbled low in his throat, uncomfortable with their carefu

    Clarissa As Chief Yungerr attended to his people without breaks, the day swiftly disappeared. Every time someone left the room, another person entered. The sun was casting long shadows throughout the room when people stopped coming in. Mimi observed everything from the corner of the room. Everyone seemed surprised to see him. He unnerved and distracted them momentarily. But Mimi remained quiet and motionless throughout the day. Clarissa sighed, and Chief Yungerr looked over at her. She stretched her back, realizing now how stiff she had gotten. Chief Yungerr’s chair cushions were essential, and she wished her seat was more comfortable. “So, what have you learned?” He asked, interested. “We saw many people today, and they each asked for something different. But every request seemed to have the same core desires. I counted six of them.” Clarissa said, checking her notes. Chief Yungerr listened attentively. His ears twitched. Smiling, he motioned for her to continue. “More p
