All Chapters of Forbidden Lessons : Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

102Sophia’s POVAs I pushed open the door to my apartment, the familiar scent of home hit me instantly—Jenny’s fruity candles, the faint scent of her perfume lingering in the air, and the textbooks scattered around the living room table. Our school exams was almost here so we had pulled an all nighter. After a long day of lectures, all I wanted to do was sink into the couch and let my brain rest. But as soon as I stepped in, I noticed something unusual.“Dad?” I blinked, my heart skipping a beat as I saw my father sitting at the kitchen table, flipping through a magazine. He looked up with a smile, his familiar face warm and comforting, but I could feel the anxiety bubbling in my chest.“Sophia!” he said, getting up from the chair to give me a hug. His arms wrapped around me, and for a second, I relaxed, leaning into the embrace. But then, the reminder of who I was now—the secrets I had to keep—crept in, making it hard to fully enjoy the moment.“What are you doing here?” I asked, pu

104Ian’s POVThe night had started perfectly. Sophia and I decided to take a break from the madness that had become our lives. After everything—the Council, the hunters, the lingering threat hanging over her head like a shadow—I wanted to give her a night to forget all of that.We hadn’t been able to just be together in so long.We strolled through the quiet streets of the city, the cool night air wrapping around us, her hand warm in mine. Sophia looked beautiful as always, her red hair glowing under the streetlights, her laughter light and genuine.She had straightned her hair tonight, so now it was even longer, flowing and shunung like silk.I smiled, staring up at the sky briefly. It was the kind of night where nothing seemed wrong—almost like we could be normal, even though we both knew that was far from the truth.“You know,” she said with a smile, “it’s nice to do something as simple as a walk, without vampires, witches, or ancient prophecies hanging over us.”I chuckled, squee

106Ian’s POVThe silence of the vampire realm used to be calming to me. It was a contrast to the noisy chaos of the human world. But tonight, the stillness was oppressive. The moment I left Lyanna’s apartment, her words echoed in my mind like a storm building on the horizon. Sophia was from an ancient bloodline? And not just any bloodline—one that could shake the foundations of our world?I moved through the dark corridors of the palace, my steps quick and quiet. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I had unleashed something I didn’t fully understand.Sophia. I thought I had protected her, marking her as mine, bringing her into my world. But now it seemed I had only opened the door to something far more dangerous. The thought of her being connected to an ancient, powerful lineage made me uneasy, not because of what it meant for me, but because of what it could mean for her. The Council wouldn’t take this lightly. They were already suspicious of her. Now, if they found out what Lyanna su

108Sophia’s POVThe first time it happened, I thought it was just a fluke. Maybe I was tired, or maybe this was what being a vampire was like—unpredictable, erratic, overwhelming. But as I sat on my bed, staring at the shattered mirror across the room, I knew this wasn’t normal. I didn’t throw anything at it. I hadn’t even moved. One moment I was brushing my hair, and the next, the glass exploded, cracks spreading from the center like a spiderweb.My hands were trembling as I lowered the hairbrush. This wasn’t some weird vampire thing, was it? I hadn’t read about it in any of the ancient texts Ian had shown me, and I was pretty sure this wasn’t what he meant when he talked about the enhanced strength or speed that came with the transition. This was different. This was something else.I didn’t tell him. Not right away. What was I supposed to say? “Hey, I think I just shattered a mirror with my mind.” No, that would sound insane. I didn’t even know how to explain it to myself, let alon

110Ian’s POVThe restaurant was one of those high-end places that served food in portions too small to satisfy even a child. But I wasn’t here for the food. Neither was Jacob, Jenny, or Sophia. Tonight was about taking a break—pretending that the chaos of the vampire world, the constant danger we faced, and the stress of keeping secrets didn’t exist. Tonight, it was just the four of us, trying to be normal, whatever that meant.I glanced across the table at Sophia, who was laughing at something Jenny had said. That laugh—her laugh—had the power to lift the weight off my shoulders, even if just for a moment. She caught me looking, and a smile spread across her face, her eyes twinkling in the dim candlelight. God, she was beautiful. She was everything.“You’re staring again,” Jacob muttered next to me, his tone laced with amusement.I smirked, not bothering to hide it. “Can you blame me?”He rolled his eyes but didn’t push it. Instead, he turned his attention to Jenny, who was playfull
