The jaguar, getting tangled in his clothes, spun like a top, knocking the startled enemy off his feet. The cat's jaw squeezed the vampire's hand, biting it to the bone. The unnaturally strong, spotted predator yanked the Supreme towards him and sank his teeth into the neck, tearing the pale skin. The other two enemies, barely recovering from their surprise, rushed towards the beast, but the jaguar tensed its legs and crossed the room with a long, powerful leap, breaking a large window and disappearing into the darkness of the night.He rushed across the field, heading towards the rocks. The herd raised their heads with a frightened snort and met with wary glances a wild cat running past them. Tristan crashed into a horse at full speed. Having barely disentangled himself from under her long legs, he climbed out of the herd. The silhouettes of low field trees loomed ahead.This time there were nullyards in his path. Maneuvering between the war horses, outraged by such impudence, Tristan

Ira jumped out of the window. With the agility of a cat, she overcame the fortress wall and jumped into the thick grass surrounding Tantario's castle. Thanks to Lonter, the girl knew that Tristan’s location was not so far away. An ordinary portal, of course, could bring her there in a matter of moments, but the Chosen One never learned to use her Power. What can I say, she didn’t really understand what it was. The image of the Lord flashed in my head again and again - his cruel grin and bloodthirsty eyes. If this beast gets to Tristan, the blond will not survive. The king's predatory gaze made it clear that he wanted the young lord dead.Only now did Ira realize that she had spent too much time with Lonter. The Lord and his henchmen will reach Tristan much earlier. The girl will have to hurry, hoping that she will have time to help the cocky Tantario and the good-natured William.Ira ran, using her strength to the limit, tensing every muscle. She still remembered the pain she felt upo

“William, I’m coming to you,” the young man’s voice trembled. The portal opened, Tristan stepped forward, and fell into pitch darkness.Norfvuld, Zhedan- Let me go, please! – William shouted, breathing heavily and pressing himself against the cold floor of the prison cell. There were wounds inflicted by the whip on his back.- What, you’re unfamiliar with such a toy, evil spirits? – a mocking male voice rang out over the brunette. “We call him the “soul knocker.” Fun name, isn't it? And he completely justifies himself... - with these words, the speaker sharply lowered a strange-looking whip with a jagged silver-blue tip and lashed it on the back of the young man sprawled on the floor.William screamed in unbearable pain. The agony eclipsed everything that the brunette had to feel before. It was clear that this weapon was created to fight vampires. But William could not understand what exactly they wanted from him. Why is he being tortured? Death seemed like sweet oblivion compared to

The entrance to the Oracle's cave was hidden in the greenery. Flexible ivy stems intertwined with wild grapes and rose hips, making the skin-draped passage almost invisible. The girls came out onto a narrow path leading them to the left between the rocks. The first rays of dawn illuminated the path, coloring the world with gold and purple. At the next turn, Ira, looking around, crashed into Valya, who had stopped. The girl looked out from behind her companion in surprise. They stood at the entrance to a green valley, surrounded by rocks and well hidden from prying eyes. Dense herbs covered the rocky soil with a flowering carpet. Here and there squat trees could be seen, distorted by the mountain winds. A stream flowed to the right, joyfully ringing and shimmering in the warm rays of dawn.“Stay close to me,” the Oracle warned and moved forward. Ira obediently followed.Valya whistled thinly and for a long time. A few moments later, the ground shook. The clatter of heavy hooves broke t

Kyrian, kneeling in the center of the altar on the cursed peak, raised his eyes, red from tears. The man who suddenly appeared in front of him radiated power. A black cloak with a red lapel fluttered in the wind, revealing a dark scarlet velvet suit to the young man’s gaze. The stranger behaved with authority, although it seemed to the young man that the uninvited guest was very weak. White hair sparkled silver in the light of the full moon, and yellow eyes burned Kyrian to the very depths of his consciousness. The sharp stones surrounding them pulsed with a dull blood-red glow. - Are your prayers true? – Kirian clearly heard every word, despite the howling wind. - Did you say these words with all your heart? The young man swallowed nervously. He didn’t even notice that all this time he was muttering prayers to heaven, asking them to save the life of his beloved. The frightening and at the same time bewitching stranger was probably a messenger of the gods. “Yes, I’ll give everything

- Strange... Didn’t they really explain anything to you? – she asked thoughtfully.William shuddered, involuntarily remembering the events of recent days. Frowning, the brunette answered dryly:- No. They were too busy with their cruel hobbies.The woman chuckled. It seemed that the young man’s words did not excite her one bit.- You are in the west of Norfwold, in Zhedan. This city is a stronghold of Hunters.- Hunters? – William asked in surprise.The woman rubbed her chin with thin, graceful fingers, not taking her sly, hazel eyes off the brunette's gaze.- This is something similar to your Lygrian Inquisition. We also fight vampires. Only we don’t kill them,” a predatory smile bloomed on her face. - We force them to serve our people. You've already experienced the Hunters' ability to train vampires to obey, haven't you?William shivered, unable to cope with the flood of memories. The unbearable agony that he endured during captivity became his worst nightmare. The brunette looked

Valya raised her hand to her face and touched the scar with her fingers. Ira noted to herself that this was not the first time in recent times. The Oracle smiled sadly, looking into the fire and lost in her own thoughts.The evening filled the cave with summer, night coolness. A restless wind blew all day, creating a feeling of anxiety. Ira sat by the fireplace and read one of Valya's few books. Thin pages, yellowed with time, told the girl about the properties of medicinal herbs, their varieties and places of flowering. Ira did not so much try to remember what she read as understand that what the pages revealed to her was already known to her somewhere deep inside. But the girl could not remember how she knew this. So all that remained was to be content with the pleasant feeling of something familiar.The Oracle silently entered the cave. She laid out a new batch of herbs on the table and began to look for linen thread on the shelves so that she could tie the stems into bundles and h

- Quiet, my love. Now everything will be fine,” Kyrian smiled gently and left the cave, taking the winged girl with him.Blurry spots danced before my eyes. Ira heard voices. Male voices. They moved away.The girl rolled onto her side and grimaced. The body didn't listen well. Terrible weakness filled the muscles with lead, making any movement almost impossible. Each breath was given with incredible effort. Ira, breathing heavily, rose to all fours. Her head began to spin, and the brunette miraculously did not fall to the ground.Everything swam before my eyes. The girl did not immediately recognize the figure lying on the floor. The metallic smell of blood turned my head. The heartbeat quickened, sounding like an alarm bell in the chest, driving the pitiful remnants of blood through the dying tissues. Ira swallowed hard, trying to ignore the burning thirst choking her throat. The brunette slowly crawled towards the figure, realizing with horror that it was the wounded Valya.Sitting

“I don’t agree,” Felix said sternly.Tristan flushed.- What an idiot! Completely obsessed with his nobility! Didn't you hear my words?! – the vampire’s gaze flashed lightning.Felix clenched his fists and stubbornly raised his chin. Tantario walked around the mare and came face to face with the knight. He glared at his companion for a while, then turned sharply and walked away, straightening the gray shirt Felix had given him that was slipping off his shoulders. Since the knight was taller and more powerful than the blond, Tantario practically drowned in these clothes. It's a pity that his things turned into holey rags after an unsuccessful teleport. However, we can say thank you that only things were damaged, and not he himself was blown to pieces. There have been such cases.The sliding fabric revealed the blonde's pale shoulders. Felix took a closer look at them, paying close attention to the red, thin cuts covered in dried blood. These wounds were taking up too much of their time

-Have you come to your senses?Felix opened his eyes and saw the face of a vampire bending over him. The scarlet haze no longer spoiled the sky-blue irises of the eyes. The knight frowned, looking at the blond's body. On his bare neck were thin stripes of scars, which just a few minutes ago had been black and scarlet cuts.“Of course, I haven’t fully recovered,” Tristan noted, turning away from the man lying on the ground. Felix sat up slowly, fighting off the dizziness. - We'll repeat it tomorrow.The knight glared at his back.- Aren’t you too arrogant? – the man was indignant.Tristan turned around, looked at the young man over his shoulder and winked slyly.- After all, it's not so unpleasant, is it? You moaned earnestly.Felix flushed with indignation. Jumping to his feet, he grabbed the hilt of his new sword, which he acquired after losing his previous one during the battle with the snake.- You will drive me to white heat, vampire! – the knight cried, taking his weapon out of i
