By late afternoon, the sun began its low descent behind the mountains. The giant digital poll on the central lawn chimed loudly, drawing hundreds of exhausted students toward the display screen.

"Results are locked!" a drone speaker announced overhead. "Day four evaluation complete!"

Juliana walked slowly out of the alchemy building, wiping a thin layer of sweat from her neck. She felt drained, having spent hours demonstrating advanced chemical synthesis to satisfy Dr. Isabela. She didn't even

  • The Snake, Chapter 179

    The morning sun rose cold and pale over Tuntadel University, sending thin beams of light through the small dorm window. Knox pulled on his jacket, zipping it up to his chin before checking his backpack for his lecture notes.He turned toward the small bed in the corner, where Caleb sat wrapped in a blanket, looking exhausted and quiet."I'm heading out for morning lectures now, Caleb," Knox said softly, stepping closer to the bed. "Listen to me carefully. Stay inside this room. Keep the door locked, keep the blinds down, and don't open for anyone unless it's me or Baron."Caleb looked up, nodding eagerly with wide, innocent eyes. "I understand, Knox. I won't move an inch. I know how dangerous it is for me to be seen on campus.""Good," Knox said, putting a hand on his cousin's shoulder. "Baron and Dean Lashley are working on keeping you safe. Once the Tradition group calls another meeting tonight, we will figure out our next move against the Vance family. Just rest up and stay hidden.

  • The Extraction before the Ambush, Chapter 178

    The atmosphere inside the high-rise office of the Vance estate was tense and heavy. Afternoon light spilled across the polished floor, but the air inside was ice-cold.Mr. Vance stood behind his sprawling desk, his face red with anger. Beside him, his son Leo Vance sat on the leather sofa, holding a glass of iced liquor, his eyes fixed on his father.Reports of the failed ambush on Rockwood Road by the Russian Eagle syndicate had just reached them."Unbelievable!" Mr. Vance roared, slamming his heavy fist onto the wooden desk. "Utterly pathetic!"He grabbed his private communicator from the desk, furiously dialing an encrypted number. It rang once before a deep, rough voice answered on the other end."Mr. Vance," Ivan, the head of the Russian Eagle mercenary gang, spoke casually."You had one job, Ivan!" Mr. Vance screamed into the receiver, his voice shaking with pure fury. "One job! Your only task was to take Lord Smith out of the picture completely! I paid a fortune for your servic

  • The Hidden, Chapter 177

    The morning sun hung low over the private estate of the Smith family, casting long, gold-and-silver rays across the vast marble courtyard. High iron fences and thick stone walls surrounded the property, but today, every single inch of the perimeter was crawling with armed guards. Over fifty elite Blue Bird soldiers stood in full tactical gear, their rifles held high, scanning the perimeter following the deadly ambush on Rockwood Road.Deep inside the grand, high-ceilinged sitting room, the air was warm and smelled faintly of burning cedar wood. Heavy velvet curtains framed the towering glass windows, and a fire crackled quietly in the hearth.Lord Smith sat in a wide leather armchair near the center of the room. He leaned back comfortably, resting both hands over the rounded head of his golden cane. His dark eyes were tired, but his posture remained upright, dignified, and utterly unfazed by the storm outside.Sitting on the leather sofa directly opposite him was Commander Dustin. The

  • Something isn’t Right, Chapter 176

    The night was unusually cold across Tuntadel University. The heavy rain that had battered the campus all afternoon had finally stopped, leaving behind slick stone pathways and a chilly, biting wind.Knox walked briskly down the dim hallway toward the Tradition Faction’s private lawn, his shoes clicking against the wet ground. Beside him, Caleb kept his head low, his hands stuffed deep into the pockets of his borrowed hoodie.Out on the lawn, the air was thick with tension. Mike walked side by side with Ayomide, gently holding her hand to guide her through the dark. Nearby, Baron, Fred, John, Susan the Seer, and Felicia were already gathered near the center of the yard alongside Bolton, who stood tall in his smooth human form."You can all sit now," Dean Lashley called out, his deep voice cutting through the chilly breeze.A large magical lamp stood in the center of the grass, casting a warm, flickering golden glow over the ten core members as they took their seats in a wide circle.De

  • A Shadow in the Room, Chapter 175

    Knox stood under the cold rain, staring at his cousin. His mind was spinning, completely paralyzed by the words that had just come out of Caleb's mouth."What... what are you talking about, Caleb?!" Knox shouted over the sound of the rain, his voice trembling with a mix of terror and confusion. "Tell me everything! Who did the Vance family take?! What is happening to our pack back home?!"Caleb coughed, clutching his wet jacket tighter around his shoulders."Knox, please—""Why are you the only one I'm seeing?!" Knox pressed on, stepping closer. "Did the rest of the clan agree to work for the Vance family?! How much are they being paid to do their dirty work?! How could an honorable wolf clan let themselves be turned into mercenaries?!"In a panic, Knox reached into his pocket, pulling out his phone to dial his uncle, the pack leader."Stop!" Caleb yelled, reaching out and snatching Knox's wrist. "Don't do that!""I have to call your dad, Caleb!" Knox snapped. "I need to know what's g

His ears twitched at every rustle of leaves, every drops of rain and it’s jentle breeze, his sharp nose catching every scent in the damp night air.Suddenly, Knox stopped dead in his tracks.His wolf nostrils flared. A strange, sharp, blood-bound scent hit his sense of smell—a raw, wild wolf spirit aura that felt shockingly familiar, this is something he noticed on an instant, yet totally unexpected on Tuntadel grounds!"Who's there?!" Knox barked, his hands dropping to his sides as his claws extended! "Show yourself and come out to me at once!"From the shadows behind the ancient stone bell tower,
