The Mountain House
The carriage rolled steadily along the dusty road as the forest slowly disappeared behind them.For the first few minutes...No one spoke.The only sounds were the steady rhythm of the horses' hooves and the creaking of the wooden wheels.Raya sat quietly beside Daniel.Or at least...She tried to.Every few seconds, her eyes drifted toward the young woman sitting close to him.Sarah had greeted both Raya and Jessica the moment they climbed aboard.But after that...She had remained unusually quiet.Her hands rested neatly on her lap as she avoided making eye contact with anyone.Raya narrowed her eyes.She looked at Daniel.Then back at Sarah.Then at the small gap between them.Too close.Finally, she couldn't hold it in anymore.She forced out a polite smile that looked anything but friendly."Sorry..."She tilted her head."Who are you again?"The carriage suddenly became awkwardly quiet.Sarah blinked before lowering her head slightly."I..."Before she could answer...Daniel spo
Eyes in the Shadows
"I'm tired..."Raya let out a long groan before dropping into a patch of thick bushes."I'm officially done."Jessica stopped a few steps ahead and turned around."You've been saying that every ten minutes.""Because every ten minutes..."Raya stretched her aching legs."...I'm tired again."Jessica folded her arms."We've barely walked half the forest."Raya looked at her in disbelief."Barely?""I think my legs have already resigned."Jessica couldn't help laughing."You trained in martial arts.""You should be the one encouraging me."Raya pointed at herself."My martial arts instructor never mentioned hiking through endless forests.""He mostly punched me."Jessica raised an eyebrow."And?""And now I'm beginning to think he should've trained my legs instead."Jessica shook her head."I should be the one complaining."Raya blinked."You?"Jessica nodded."I've never trained the way you have.""I've spent more time studying spells than climbing mountains."Raya smiled smugly."Exac
Find Elena
Back in the royal palace of Drakenhold...Prince Kael's private chamber echoed with laughter.Expensive wine flowed freely.Several beautiful maidens sat around his massive bed, chatting and laughing with the two princes.Prince Kael lounged comfortably across an enormous velvet couch, a golden goblet lazily spinning between his fingers.Beside him, Prince Lucien leaned back with his boots resting on a polished table, looking completely carefree like he was going to be crowned king the next day."You know," Kael said proudly, taking a sip of wine, "Father should really start preparing the throne for one of us."Lucien burst into laughter."Which one?""You?"Kael smirked."Obviously.""I'm the better-looking brother."Several maidens giggled.Lucien scoffed dramatically."Better looking?""You're confusing confidence with imagination."One of the maidens covered her mouth as she laughed."I think His Highness Lucien has a point."Kael placed a hand over his chest as though deeply woun
No More Surprise Fiancés
The garden fell quiet after Elena disappeared into the palace corridors.Only Scott and Princess Diana remained beneath the moonlit pavilion.For a few seconds...Neither of them spoke.Diana folded her arms and looked in the direction Elena had left before turning back to Scott."So...""What were you two talking about?"Scott shrugged."Nothing much."Diana raised an eyebrow."Nothing much?""You've been standing here with her for quite a while."Scott smiled faintly."We were just talking.""About?"Scott looked at the pond."A few things.""The palace.""The prophecy.""My family."Diana frowned."You discussed all of that...""...with a maid?"Scott looked at her."I don't see why that's strange."Diana sighed."Scott...""She's just a palace maid."Scott chuckled."So?""Does being a maid mean she isn't allowed to hold a conversation?""That's not what I meant.""Then what did you mean?"Diana hesitated."I just..."She quickly looked away."...find it strange."Scott smiled."I
Truth or Revenge
Night had long fallen over Noctharis.The palace gardens were unusually quiet.A cool breeze drifted through the trees, carrying the scent of blooming flowers across the moonlit courtyard the air refreshing and somehow comforting for Scott as he stood alone beneath a stone pavilion, staring at the silver moon reflected in the pond before him.His thoughts refused to settle.Everything King Aurelius had revealed earlier continued to echo inside his mind.The Dragon King's bloodline...My mother wasn't an ordinary slave.She was chosen as a vessel...Scott slowly clenched his fists.His nails dug into his palms.Part of him wanted revenge.Every time he remembered the fate of the Dragon King's family, anger rose inside his chest like an uncontrollable fire.Entire bloodlines had been wiped out.Children had been hunted.Pregnant women had been forced to flee while carrying lives that powerful kingdoms feared.And somehow...He had survived.Scott took a slow breath."But why my mother?"
No Turning Back
Later that afternoon...The room remained unusually quiet.Daniel sat against the headboard while Mr. Zen and Elizabeth rested nearby.The sound of footsteps echoed outside.Click.The door slowly opened.Sarah stepped inside.Unlike before, she no longer looked relaxed.One hand held a small wooden bowl filled with freshly prepared herbal medicine.The other rested firmly on the hilt of the sword hanging at her waist.Her eyes carefully moved between Daniel, Mr. Zen, and Elizabeth.It was clear she wasn't taking any chances.Daniel glanced at her once before turning his face away.His expression became cold.Sarah noticed immediately.She quietly walked over and placed the bowl on the small table beside the bed."I brought your medicine."Daniel remained silent."You should drink it while it's still warm."Still...Nothing.Sarah lowered her eyes."I know you're angry."Daniel finally spoke."Angry?"He let out a quiet laugh."I trusted you.""I thought you saved me."He slowly looke
