21 - PUNISHMENT

Meridian WaterThe sound of hooves echoed along the road as the carriage rocked us from side to side. We’d left the castle for an urgent audience in a nearby village that rebels had attacked earlier that morning. I was on high alert, eyeing every twist and turn. The Prince wore a closed-off expression, but I could feel his eyes studying me every second.“If you want, we can stop to rest, Your Majesty,” I said, something telling me it was time for a quick break.“Are you worried about me, or just trying to dodge this… tense atmosphere?” The prince raised an eyebrow with a sly little smirk.I took a deep breath. The tension between us was tangible, like a storm about to break. He didn’t seem to be hiding the fact that he was playing along—and deeply invested.“Your safety is my only priority,” I said, not bothering to hide the sarcasm in my voice. “If we stop, I can check out the surroundings and make sure everything’s safe for us to continue.”“Are you sure you’re not just looking for

22 – MY GREATEST CHALLENGE

Meridian WaterI let out a barely audible laugh.“You seriously think a little provocation like that’s going to make me lose it?” I asked, rolling my eyes.He paused, like he was studying my reaction.“I do…” he said confidently, making me laugh.“So you really believe I’m just going to cave?” I asked, straightening up and staring him down.“I don’t actually need you to give in,” he finally said, his voice calmer. “I just need to see how far you’ll take me. How far you’re willing to push this game.”I stood up slowly, moving toward the shelf of old books beside the fireplace. The silence between us turned up the tension. No, I wasn’t giving in.“It’s going to be a long night, Prince,” I said, my tone firmer, trying to keep my cool. “You’re going to need more than words to make me lose focus on my mission.”He moved closer at last, challenge burning in his eyes.“Oh, I know. Which is exactly why I’m going to prove I’m a lot more persuasive than you think.”He stopped near me, the dista

23. THE SHADOW GAME

23. THE SHADOW GAMEPrince Darlon SweeneyThe castle was silent when I finally returned, the darkness of night still clinging to the corridors as I made my way through the long stone hall. The weight of my cloak felt heavier than ever—and not just from the fabric, but from everything that had been happening.What did I do in that cabin? I’d gotten way too close, gone against my own rules. Now I was at war with myself.The moment the magic swept us back to the safety of the castle, a wave of relief hit me— but it came with a strange, gnawing anxiety. She was far away now, but I couldn’t forget her. Deep down, I knew the game wasn’t over. Not by a long shot. And not knowing how far to go or where the limit even was… it was eating me up inside.I stared out the window of my room, the full moon lighting up the stone walls of the castle and the vast land all around us. But nothing seemed as distant as she did, even if we were just steps apart. The truth is, what really haunted me wasn’t th

24 – A SIGN

24 – A SIGNRenan FolderThe forest winds carried a mix of scents—the familiar pine and the metallic tang of blood. My body stayed alert to everything while I hunted, but my mind was the real traitor. It always came back to a single name: Meridian.Rage burned in my chest at the memory of the Kingdom of Umbra. At the memory of what they turned her into. Those damned mages didn’t just take one of ours; they stole an essential piece of me—only she never knew. There wasn’t time. All I have left now is this emptiness that echoes through these silent nights.I followed the marked trail, the crunch of dead leaves under my boots muffled by the wind’s constant hum. Hunting was just an excuse to escape the pack’s weight. That’s when I caught it: a distinct scent, subtle but unmistakable. Something I hadn’t smelled since that night. My instincts roared to life. My steps went lighter, near silent, as I followed its trail.I found a cabin, and something in me just froze. She wasn’t there, but som

25 – INTRUDERS

25 – INTRUDERSMeridian WaterThe sky was painted in a deep violet hue by the time the Prince and I finally reached our destination. The castle set to host the diplomatic event looked more like a fortress, with menacing towers and tall walls etched with runes glowing faintly in the moonlight.“Stay sharp,” I warned the soldiers traveling with us. “The energy here is way too heavy.”The Prince of Umbra walked ahead with his usual regal poise. His steps were silent, yet every movement radiated a commanding presence that felt almost supernatural. His aura was a mix of elegance and danger—something I couldn’t help but notice, no matter how hard I tried.Stepping into the main hall, the atmosphere hit us like a storm. Mages from all over whispered among themselves, and each one eyed the prince’s every step. My hand instinctively moved toward the dagger at my waist.“Nervous?” he asked, his voice as low and rough as ever.“It’s my job to stay on guard, not nervous,” I fired back, my gaze sc

26 – SHE IS OUR WEAPON

26 – SHE IS OUR WEAPONPrince Darlon SweeneyWhen she whispered that we were under attack and Meridian stepped in front of me, shielding me, I couldn’t just stand there like I usually do—I acted. I drew my sword and began moving, striking down my enemies until they were eliminated, and the soldiers began clearing away their bodies.After wiping the blood from my sword and sheathing it, I turned to Meridian. She seemed off. Her gaze was fixed on a man whose face was partially masked. When he looked at me, he fled. I couldn’t stop wondering who he was and why Meridian hadn’t attacked him. I kept watching her until she asked if I had seen it—seen him. The man she hadn’t struck, standing frozen instead. I pretended not to understand what she was talking about, and we left it at that.Later, back in our room, as everything settled, she sat on the bed, closed her eyes, and rested

27 – WOLVES

27 – WOLVESMeridian WaterAs the carriage rolled along, my thoughts refused to settle. The recent events replayed over and over in my mind. I was on high alert, and two things were throwing me off balance. We had been under constant attacks lately—why? But that wasn’t the main thing. First, there was the almost-kiss with the prince. Ever since that moment, my thoughts had been consumed by his scent, his hands on my waist, the feeling that danced over me like shadows. Then there was that strange memory of the wolf. What was it trying to tell me? Why did it seem to recognize me? Why didn’t it attack me in the forest? Everything felt tangled.“You know you’re staring at me, right?” the prince said, breaking into my thoughts.“Don’t flatter yourself. I’m miles away from you right now,” I snapped, irritation creeping into my voice as my words came out harsher than intended.“Thinking about the kiss you wish we’d finished, or someplace else?” He raised an eyebrow, his amusement evident in

28: MAKE ME BURN

Meridian WaterI took a deep breath as the first rays of dawn filtered through the curtains. Despite the constant heat that lingered in the Kingdom of Umbra, a chill ran down my spine. Scattered thoughts hammered at my mind, but I pushed them aside. This wasn’t the time for distractions.A knock at the door startled me. Still half asleep, I got up and opened it. It was the prince. His presence irritated me even more because it reminded me of what we started but didn’t finish.“You don’t look excited,” he said, his deep, raspy voice filling the silence like a veiled provocation. His black eyes locked onto mine, as if trying to decipher me.“What do you want?” I asked, rolling my eyes.“Don’t ask hard questions—you might not like the answer,” he smirked, the kind of smirk that had me wet within seconds.“Am I being summoned?” I tried to ignore the question—and the heat rising in me.“Yes,” he nodded. “We have a diplomatic event today.”“Now?” I asked, raising an eyebrow.“No,” he replie

29 - ABYSS

29 - ABYSSPrince Darlon SweeneyThe castle’s war room buzzed with tension. Maps sprawled across the massive obsidian table, and the voices of advisors clashed like blades in the air. As I entered with purposeful strides, every head turned toward me. Meridian followed closely, her presence silent but commanding. An uneasy stillness settled over the room, broken only by the impatient drumming of fingers on the table.I scanned the room, noting each face. Luthor, clad in his armor, exuded impatience, while Vanya sat with a rigid posture, skepticism etched into her expression. The other advisors seemed torn between respect and fear. But I knew—one of them was a traitor.“Let’s begin,” I announced, my voice slicing through the noise like a blade. I moved to the head of the table and took my seat. “Report on the recent developments at the borders.”Luthor was the first to speak, gesturing to the map in front of us. The red and blue markers denoting territories caught my attention as he det

30 - I’m in Love with You

30 - I’m in Love with YouMeridian WaterWhen his gaze met mine, it felt like everything around us was ablaze. But instead of continuing with what I thought he intended to do, his hands left my waist, tracing the scars scattered across my body. There was something in his eyes—admiration, maybe? I couldn’t quite decipher it. For a moment, I felt vulnerable under his touch, and my mind screamed at me to leave.Put your clothes back on and walk away.Don’t let him in.You’ll get hurt.But when his fingers brushed my skin, and I saw the fascination in his eyes, it was as if every scar I bore had been worth it. As if they existed solely for him to touch. I felt revered, as if he were worshiping the darkest, most hidden parts of me with each touch and each kiss on those marks. And suddenly, the fiery lust between us transformed into something entirely different.The prince’s expression softened, his features growing tender—an expression I never thought a dark mage could wear. He rose slowly
