Augustus’ P.O.V. “I’m telling you to leave it. You look better with it up.” I argued with Arie to leave his hair in the loose man bun I had pulled his hair into. I want to find him someone that will make him happy. I know I won’t find anyone at the club for him, but he can learn how to flirt better while there. Those girls will practice for him, and if he strikes out, then he has others there that he can practice on. I just want him to be happy, and I feel like he won’t move on from Nova if he doesn’t find someone. It’s not a possessiveness over Nova that is driving me to do this, it is more that I want to help him. I don’t want Ares hurting because of Nova and I. I am trying to keep my promise as best I can in this situation. “I only ever wear it up when we’re about to fight. I don’t like it up.” He pouted. “Too bad, leave it.” I raised a brow at him. He sighed, giving up on the argument and leaving his hair up. “Before we do anything, we need to spread the rumor about Damon. H

Liam’s P.O.V. I had dropped Jesse back off at her dorm to find Cas waiting for her. I could see her fighting off the smirk that threatened to plague her face. She was happy to see him and it hurt. I hope she knows that in a couple of months, I’ll be coming for her. No matter what the moon goddess decides, I will make sure she knows I am hers. I need her to know that she is my everything. “You’re quiet.” Percy complained, having yapped away for the last 30 minutes without me hearing a word he said. I shrugged at him, not saying anything. “Are you going home for the last day of the moon festival? I think I'm going to see if I can’t sniff out my mate. It’s been a few months since my birthday and she’s obviously not at this school.” Percy shook his head in disappointment. He’s the oldest of us younger kids, born in May. “So you’re going to take part in the hunt?” I arched a brow at him, wondering how Percy does with the ladies. “Yeah, I mean, if all else fails, I'll have a good night

Nova’s P.O.V."No, Dad. We have done nothing. We kissed like once." I rolled my eyes at him. "I had to ask, little moon. You know I wouldn't shame you if you had. Especially since that's the way you'll be able to find your destined one." Dad stared up at the night sky. The stars looked beautiful out there. They were easier to see here than back at the academy. "I know, Dad. I promise when I find out who my destined one is, you'll be one of the first few I tell." "I'll hold you to that." We continued to lie back on the grass and star gaze. Dad had asked me out here to talk, but never expected our conversation to be about this. Sex is always a strange topic to talk about with your parents. "You know your mom was absolutely terrible at recognizing mate bonds. I hope you're not the same way." His elbow nudged me playfully. "Yeah, mom told me about that. Sorry she made you wait so long. I am glad you did." It amazes me how much Dad and Mom love each other. They have a bond that I on

Andy’s P.O.V.“It was amazing!” I finished my story excitedly. “Wish I could take you flying one day. I think you’d really enjoy riding on a Pegasus back, or even a dragon’s.”“You’d let me ride you?” He asked, not realizing the lude way he had phrased that. My cheeks flushed a light pink at the thought. “Yeah, if you wanted to.” I couldn’t meet his eyes as I spoke. “That would be really nice, Andy. Thank you for helping me.” He took hold of my hand and pulled me to sit with him on the concrete slab at the top of the steps. His shoulder nudged my own, making me look up at him. He then gave me that beautiful smile of his that made my stomach swarm with the tickle of butterfly wings. “I will always be here to help you. You’re my air.” I gave him a small smile in return. “To be honest, Andy, I’m a little scared.” His voice sounded so sad as he looked up at the sky. “What if I end up just like my dad?” “You won’t!” I almost yelled at him. “I won’t let it happen. We are going to fix

Ares' P.O.V. "Run!" Andy yelled at me before she was swallowed by the earth before me. I raced towards the spot she was just in, clawing at the ground in hopes of somehow reaching her. I could feel the darkness creeping up behind me. The evil was so strong I could feel the cold seep deep into my bones. "We need to go!" Jesse grabbed my arm, pulling me up. "I can't control the shadows. She's got more control over the darkness." She started to drag me as I get trying to reach Andy. "We should have brought mom." She mumbled, almost annoyed with herself. "Andy will be fine. She's Andy, we need to get you out of here." Jesse searched all around, seeing the bright flame of a blue fire. "This way! Hurry!" Auggie yelled out to us in his fully shifted phoenix form. Jesse ran us towards him, the feeling of death lurking closely behind us. It was like the shadow of death was chasing us, closing in around us quickly. Auggie threw fire balls behind us, pushing the darkness back for

Jesse's P.O.V. "Please, it's not like I'll miss anything important," Liam said. Liam gave me his puppy dog eyes. He had just asked me if I'd rub his back again so he could get a little sleep while Mr. Zaleta gave his lecture. "What kept you up last night?" I asked him before deciding whether to rub his back. “Ares warned me that a couple of girls in their heat were heading my way. I’m ready to claim my mate.” It hurt to hear him tell me that, picturing him claiming someone hurt me more than it should have. I hate I can’t be his mate, that the universe decided Liam wasn’t what was best for me. In what world is someone like Damon a good choice for me? I felt my chest tighten at the thought of Liam leaving me behind once he finds his mate. “Where did you sleep?” I asked, running my fingers lightly across his back, relaxing him further. I swear it looked like he cringed when I asked him. It seemed almost like he didn’t want to tell me where he was. He ducked his head into his a

Augustus' P.O.V. "What's wrong with her?" I asked Ares as I stared down at Jesse on the clinic bed. There were a total of 4 beds in the school clinic, seeing as many of us have natural healing abilities, not many need to use this place. Ares sighed. I could tell this was killing him, too. It was just us two in here with her, with the nurse not allowing anyone other than family to come in. I think Liam was ready to toss the nurse out the window and come to be at Jesse's side. His wolf was beyond restless, and at first I thought he was acting too insane, but once we entered the room Ares, let me know that Jesse will be his mate in less than 2 months. It explains a lot, and frankly, I'm happy about it. I like the wolf over the vampire. Cassandra has given me a bad taste with vampires. I mean, Cas seems fine, but his sister is too crazy, and they were raised together, so they gotta be similar in some ways, right? "It's the bond. It's starting to weaken her. Damon hasn't accepted the

Nova's P.O.V. I watched as Damon wiggled, trying to free himself from the water. Water is fluid, moving along with him, keeping him shackled. His jaw ticked in anger, as he could not escape. He knew he was in trouble. I could see the concern, deep in his blue eyes. Manny stepped forward, placing his hand on Damon's shoulders. Damon was smart and avoided eye contact with him and me. He knew all we needed was for him to meet our eyes for just a moment, for us to enter his mind. Unbeknownst to him, touching works just as well, if not better. Manny narrowed his eyes in concentration as he began to root around Damon's mind. "How many copies of the video do you have?" I asked, making Damon's thoughts focus on the video. Even if he was trying to hold it back the moment I asked, his brain would immediately think of the answer. I could see Manny's nostrils flair in anger. He had found the answer, but it wasn't one he liked. "There are three copies. Two on campus and one in the shadow

Andy's P.O.V.5 months have passed now and Elara has grown right before our eyes at a very rapid rate. She now looks to be 4 rather than just 5 months. We knew it would happen from Percy's warning, but it was still alarming to see. She was breathtakingly beautiful, with her still white hair that curled softly around her. She had her mother's eyes which at first were hard to look into without remembering her. Now, all I see when I look at them is Elara. That same bright-moon silver dawned her eyes shimmering against her pale skin. Her rosy lips and crimson stained cheeks contrasted well with her all white appearance. "Mommy, I'm bored," she complained, coming to take a seat on my lap. "I know sweetheart, but I have to finish tending to these plants for my final, and daddy's in class right now, taking one of his finals. Would you like to help me? I can show you how to grow a plant with magic," I offered her with a smile. "Okay, Mommy!" She jumped excitedly, looking all kinds of ador
West Ora Academy: It Starts Here Ch. 130 Ares
Ares’ P.O.V.Elara stirred in my arms as she situated herself. My heart felt full with her in my arms. In a matter of seconds this child had me wrapped around her finger. She is my world, my heart, my everything. She and Andy take priority over everything in my life. I would kill for them. I would die for them. Seeing dad was an unexpected gift that both helped and eased my worries. I guess now it's time to tell mom and my other dad's. I don't know how they'll take it. Mom lost it when she found out what happened to me. I am worried how she'll react to Elara. I better do it now while I have the gale to do it. "I'm going to mom's, come with me?" I turned, asking them all. "You sure?" Auggie stepped forward, seeming concerned. "It's now or never. Besides, the longer I wait the more hurt she'll be." I looked into the future, seeing mom outside training. If I wait too long she'll be hurt that I didn't tell her. "Okay, then. Let's go." Jesse nodded. "This will probably be better if it
West Ora Academy: It Starts Here Ch. 129 Percy
Percy’s P.O.V. My dear son, I am so sorry this has happened to you. You finally lifted the curse I could not, yet here you stood with a baby in your arms. Much too young to raise a child, yet alone one with such great responsibility. They granted me one more visit, and I saved it for this day in case this future came to pass. I had hoped not, but he chose correctly, and I couldn’t be more proud. He didn’t think selfishly. He let his child be born, even though it was one he did not consent to. I made Ares much in the same way that he conceived his daughter. I can’t exactly say anything about that. None of it was the baby’s fault, anyway. I watched Ares as he looked on to that child, like she was his everything. It was a sad sight to see, knowing that his future would be just as hard as his past, if not more difficult, despite the curse being lifted. I couldn’t help the sadness that filled my heart. This was not the future I wanted for him, it was not the one I hoped for. I know he wi
West Ora Academy: It Starts Here Ch. 128 Augustus
Augustus' P.O.V. Ares traveled us all back to the center of the maze, where just an hour before we had been having fun. That was the longest and most intense hour of my life. I'm not sure what happened those last few minutes of the battle. When things got dark we leaned into each other, and it unlocked something inside of Ares that we were all able to tap into. The feeling still lingered inside me, strengthening me with power and light. I scanned the area for Nova, but couldn't see her anywhere. She must have sensed me as a water portal opened before us, and Nova jumped out with Manny close behind. "I'm sorry I couldn't teleport you all out. I was only able to get Nova because we're mated. The dark forest hates relinquishing its prey," Manny explained with a guilty expression. "Thank you for rescuing her," I said, staring at Nova like she was my salvation. She's the only reason I live and breathe. She ran towards me, wrapping her arms around my neck. She sobbed into my chest, let

Jesse's P.O.V. With the sword in its hand, the demon lunged forward towards Nova. It clawed at her, piercing her skin right over her thigh as she retreated too slowly. The demon tossed the sword, having it land on the ground, looking like an Excalibur sticking out of the earth. It shined mockingly from 20 feet away. It would have done us well if Nova could have had the chance to use it. "Jesse, can you do it?" Liam asked, already knowing that I couldn't, but desperately wanting me to. I shook my head no, hanging it in disappointment for a brief second. "Then know that I love you, forever into all eternity." He shifted into King before me, biting down onto the demon's head, only to be met with a loud yelp of pain. The demon's blood was burning his mouth as if he had taken a bite of hot magma. Liam let go of the demon instantly, using his paws to slash at it instead. He shook his head, trying to shake off the pain from his mouth. The heat from the demon someone felt to increase. I

Nova’s P.O.V. The ghoul lunged, trying to bite a chunk of flesh off. I burned it away before me, turning it into a charred black lump. The smell of charred flesh permeated the air, and I felt my stomach turn in disgust. They already smelled bad, but it seemed burning them only made the stench worse. Auggie clasped my hand tightly as his fire coursed through me and combined with my own. Our fire joined when we became mated. There was no delay, no fight for control. It was natural, like an extension of myself. I blasted the ghouls as they approached, while Auggie tossed them with his shadows. My primary concern was the demon that stood at the edge of the woods. It seemed to watch, waiting for something, but I'm not sure what. I heard the baby cry in the cabin, earning not only the attention of some ghouls, but that of the demon as well. Ares seemed to pale as his eyes flashed and his face contorted with worry. Andy was in danger. I could tell by the change in his demeanor. He told L
West Ora Academy: It Starts Here Ch. 125 Andy
Andy's P.O.V. My worst nightmare played before me. Ares had been wrapped in dark smoke and pulled away from us before my eyes. I tried to reach for him, but found myself grabbing air. He was gone. I spun around seeing the same horrified expression on everyone's face. "We have to go!" I snapped everyone out of their shock. "I can travel us there now. I've been practicing with Umbra and we can use the darkness better," Jesse said, answering the question of how we would get there without anyone having to ask. "Then let's go," Auggie said, looking the most determined I had ever seen him. I felt the beast inside me stir as anger coursed through me. She could be hurting him this very instant. I need to save the love of my life before she does irreversible damage. I felt the familiar cold of shadow traveling wrap itself around me as the settings set around us. Jesse had managed to pull us through Ares' shadow door. There was no stumbling or searching through the woods for him this time.

Ares' P.O.V. Andy's idea for her Christmas pity party was brilliant. I could feel the atmosphere changing around us, allowing for some laughter and joy to enter each of us. I know everyone is nervous and worried for me a lot. Hell, I'm scared, but with Andy by my side and Dad's words of encouragement, I think I can do this. I guess we'll see when she calls on me. I wonder though, when she calls me, will she call only me? Last time it was an accident that everyone came with me. I doubt she'd call them again, since they ruined her plans for me. I could see it in her eyes that night. She wasn't done with me. If she would have had her way, she would have raped me all night. She was determined to have a child, and for some reason she was determined to have that child with me. What if when she calls me again, she tries the same thing? The thought made my blood run cold and my body shiver. Andy noticed as she leaned in beside me, providing me with warmth only he touch brings me. She chas
West Ora Academy: It Starts Here Ch. 123 Augustus
Augustus’ P.O.V. Christmas was approaching us sooner than we would have liked. Instead of enjoying the holiday season we had all been on pins and needles, just waiting for the day we would face that crazy dark witch again. Ares trains every day with Andy by his side. Nova and I have been focusing on our fire training to use during battle, while she and Manny have been training on her control over her sea witch magic. We don’t want her to be overtaken again. She had delved into the darkness the week she had turned away from me. It had almost permanently stained her soul, but with the help of Andy they were able to banish that darkness. Ares has been more on edge than usual. I know that he isn’t the only one. Jesse and I have been talking and practicing. We’ve been trying to figure out what Percy meant when he spoke about us holding one another when things get dark. We aren’t the most poetic bunch, so we didn’t come up with much. It didn’t help that Jesse told me about the prophecy sh
