The Lost Heir Of Sargent SHOULD I ACCEPT THIS AS MY FATE?
"Solaris?" the weight of that name is heavy, it rang familiar in his ears, stirring something deep within Christian.Like a whisper at the edge of his mind, something he should remember but couldn't quite grasp."Isn't it a place I asked you before, Grandpa?" He asked with a confused face, not understanding why his grandfather brought up that name now, when previously he didn't say anything no matter how much he insisted on knowing about that place."Yes," Lord Sargent nodded. "It is the birthplace of everything. Our bloodline, our legacy... our power."Christian's brows furrowed. "You're saying this isn't just a rich family with a long history?"Liliana chuckled softly. "Chrissy, the Sargents aren't just wealthy, we are one of the oldest and most powerful bloodlines in existence.""Powerful how? Superpowers?" Christian asked, crossing his arms.Lord Sargent gestured towards the strange objects around them. "Yes, the powers which normal people feel difficult to understand but too norm

"You might also become a Guardian of Solaris just like your mother," Lord Sargent said with a gentle smile looking at Christian who is a spitting image of his daughter.Christian turned to him, confusion clouding his features. "Guardians? What does that mean? What's the role of a Guardian?" Liliana and Charles exchanged an unreadable glance before Lord Sargent continued."Protectors, Guardians are protectors of this place Chris, your mother was one of the few who had access to the realm of Solaris, since it's not a place for everyone and a place only the awakened can reach." The word ‘awakened’ stirred something deep inside Christian as he remembered Ezra's words.The strange energy he had felt within himself for weeks-the inexplicable strength, the heightened senses, the nightmares that felt like memories-everything suddenly seemed connected."Why didn't anyone tell me before about this?" He asked, his voice low but edged with something sharp more than curiosity, "No matter how man
The Lost Heir Of Sargent I'M A TRUE SARGENT
"Don't be nervous, Chrissy," Liliana tried to cheer him after looking at his pale face, Christian forced an awkward smile, "is it obvious?"Liliana nodded her head, Christian chuckled nervously, "well, I can't help..." Liliana gently rubbed Christian's back, "It's okay, everything will be fine." Soon, the golden door that had stood like a sentinel at the heart of the chamber suddenly shimmered, the constellations etched into its surface rearranging one final time before dissolving into light. In its place, something else showed up, it's an ornate mirror, tall and attractive, its frame of obsidian entwined with delicate golden vines that pulsed faintly, like veins carrying some ancient energy giving familiar vibes with an earlier golden door.The chamber fell quite all of a sudden sending nervous shivers in everyone's spine.Even the golden veins on the walls dimmed slightly, as if holding their breath.Christian stared at the mirror, and his heart pounded so hard that it's almost a
The Lost Heir Of Sargent WHO AM I REALLY?
"Second trial?" Christian stood with renewed confidence after shattering the illusions of the first trial. His legs were still unsteady, but his spirit sparkled brighter than ever. He could feel it, the determined fire inside him, finally no longer flickering in doubt.Liliana helped him steady himself with a gentle hand on his arm, her eyes glittering with pride and lingering worry."You good?" She asked quietly, "Is everything okay? You're not injured anywhere, are you?" Christian nodded, brushing dust from his pants. "I think I'm okay aunt." She fussed over his dusty hair. "Ugh, look at you completely messy!""It's okay, aunt," he smiled at her as she is wiping off dust from his face.Charles didn’t say anything but gave him a short nod of acknowledgment. Lord Sargent, as always, was composed, but Christian saw something shift in his eyes, pride.Then, with no warning, the chamber changed once again keeping all of them anxious for a couple of minutes.The golden veins in the w
The Lost Heir Of Sargent MARIE IS ALIVE
"Am I really unfit to pass through that door?" "What does that voice meant by I'm a mixed blood?""Can't I be a part of Solaris?" Christian sat at the edge of the balcony, arms resting on the cold iron railing as his eyes looked at the blank sky.The morning sun was barely rising, casting a soft golden glow across the estate grounds. But his thoughts were elsewhere, still circling the words that had shattered him and his heart."A mixed blood like you can’t enter."That phrase haunted him, it had broken something inside him, and awakened something too.He clenched the torn edge of his sleeve, fingers curling as if grasping for answers that refused to come. "What did it mean?" "Who am I, really?" His mother, Marie, had been a mystery all his life, a woman who smiled softly but never spoke of her past, whose eyes always seemed to look far beyond him, like she was hiding worlds he would never understand.Now, Christian needed to know those worlds. Every secret.... Every truth....
The Lost Heir Of Sargent I KNOW WHERE IT IS
"Please wake up," Christian pleaded, holding the woman’s bloodied form in his arms, while is voice cracked with deep fear and anxiety. "You can't die, I can't watch you die...." Charles slowly knelt beside him, hand resting on her neck for a moment to check her pulse. Once he is done with checking her pulse, his expression turned grave."She’s gone, Chris."The words hit like a cold splash, Christian stiffened, staring down at her pale, and peaceful face. Her last words are still repeated in his mind, "Marie is alive." "No... she can't be..." He tightened his hold on her as if he could force life back into her broken body, "I didn't even express my gratitude for what she has done to me, yet she is dead, why? Why does she have to die?" Liliana crouched beside him, her eyes glassy with emotion as she placed a gentle hand on his shoulder. "Chrissy," she whispered gently, "it's quite saddening to see her dying, but you should be happy too, because she brought you something precious..
The Lost Heir Of Sargent ARE WE HEADING STRAIGHT TO HOUSE OF EVERNIGHT?
"What are you talking about?" Ezra turned to him, confusion written all over his face, as he couldn't understand what Christian is talking about.Christian’s eyes lit with something new, not sorrow this time, but with excitement. "That seal... the one you told me about, it's in Adam's mansion, there she hid it, I know where it is." Without saying anything further, Christian stepped out of the room, Ezra also didn’t question him, he simply followed silently."Where are you going Chrissy?" Liliana asked Christian with a gentle tone as he was about to leavevthe house, Christian calmly said, "I've some work in Adams mansion aunt, I'll be back very quickly." Liliana held his hand, "Why don't I come along with you?"Christian hesitated to take her along, as he isn't going there for fun but to search for something.Noticing Christian's hesitating, Liliana said, "Umm it's okay, let the guards follow you, they'll be watching you from distance, will not disturb you," she gently caressed his f
The Lost Heir Of Sargent THEY'RE STILL HUNTING US
"Ofcourse, if that's the place you want to go," Ezra winked his eyes, Christian keeping the hands in his pockets, glanced forward aiming to reach his destination, "I can't waste even a minute, because finding my mom and saving her, that's the only goal of mine." The sky had shifted from orange and yellowish to grey and blank, while the clouds were thick with the scent of rain. Christian drove in silence, his fingers loosely curled around the steering wheel, while Ezra sat beside him, invisible to the world yet always present for him.The ring, the ancient seal of the House of Evernight, rested heavy in Christian's pocket, as if it carried not just simple weight, but a strong purpose."You’re quiet," Ezra said after a while, with a low and cautious voice, "What's running in your mind?" Christian glanced at the rearview mirror, watching the landscape blur into misty hills. "I’m just thinking, it's about my mom, what exactly she was trying to protect? Why did she risk her life to prot

DO I ALWAYS HAVE TO BE PERFECT?
"Whoosh.... Whoosh...." A heavy wind, but he couldn't feel it, there was no pain.No light.... No sound.... Only silence.Then, warmth, gentle, like a memory, and he opened his eyes.Christian stood barefoot on an endless surface of silver mist, beneath a sky the color of dusk-drenched blood. Shapes floated in the distance, shattered buildings, crumbling archways suspended in air, all glowing faintly with soft golden veins. Everything felt real, as if alive, as if still breathing."Where… am I?" His voice echoed back to him, distorted, almost childlike, "What kind of craziness is this?" He scratched his head with frustration, "These days more than living in reality, I keep on living in illusions and dreams, I don't understand what's this exactly either? Seems like illusions and dreams are a second home to me..." He took a step after a lot of hesitation since he knew there was nothing he could do apart from figuring out what was surrounding him.The mist rippled underfoot, reveali
AFTER ALL GE IS YOUR NEPHEW
"Why would I even hurt him?" Rosaline got offended by Charles's hurtful words, "I might've acted in rash out of anger because of what I've seen just after opening my eyes, that doesn't mean I'm heartless enough to hurt a person who helped me." Gulping hard the yelp in her throat, she said, "I'm already feeling guilty after seeing him in this condition, do you really have to speak like this with me?" "Is it the same Rosaline I knew?" Charles felt inwardly in shock, "Why is she acting so emotional? Is she for real?" However he didn't speak anything further after listening to her, and allowed her to get closer to Christian.The room had fallen into an uneasy silence after the exchange of conversation in between Charles and Rosaline.While she stood rooted in place, her eyes fixed on Christian’s unconscious form lying on the bed she had just awoken from. The faint glow of the golden sigil on her chest had long faded, but the weight of what it represented pressed heavily on her.No one
IS THIS HOW YOU'RE GOING TO TREAT YOUR SAVIOUR?
"Uncle, do you really think I’d assault a sick woman?" Christian asked, his voice still hoarse with exhaustion, but frustration is evident in both his face and voice.Rosaline threw the covers off and stood abruptly from the bed. "Sick woman? Who are you calling sick? I was just sleeping, you brat!" Christian scoffed and crossed his arms at her foolishness still not accepting her condition, "Sleeping? Excuse me, for how many years now? If you don't believe in a brat like me, ask your biological father the one standing beside you..." Rosaline blinked in confusion, and turned to her father in disbelief. "Dad? What nonsense is this guy speaking?" Charles stepped forward, placing a steady hand on Christian’s shoulder. "He’s not lying, Rosaline… you’ve been lying on this bed unconscious for the past three years, and today only you woke up for the first time after three years." Lord Valemire nodded his head agreeing with Charles's words, "It’s true, Rose, you collapsed from some unknown
AM I DREAMING OR IS IT REAL?
"I don't know what I did, I'm tired as hell," Christian sighed wiping off the sweat from his forehead, Ezra chuckled hearing to him but still beaming with pride because of Christian's selflessness and efforts to save a complete stranger.The room was quiet again, as neither of them spoke.Christian remained seated near Rosaline’s bedside, the faint sound of his own heartbeat filling the silence. The black smoke had disappeared after the purification pill took effect, but his relief didn’t last long.A sudden wave of thick, inky darkness began curling around Rosaline once more, moving like a serpent seeking its prey.Ezra’s voice immediately reached Christian, "It’s returning, her energy is too weak to hold off the evil energy, the curse is eating away at her from within, and trying to corrupt her soul..." Christian frowned rubbing his temples. "But I already gave her the purification pill, what more do I do? Any spell?" Ezra sighed, his tone filled with urgency. “One pill isn’t eno
ARE YOU READY TO TAKE RISK FOR HER?
"Mr. Charles, Master wants to meet you," a guard announced, bowing respectfully at the doorway, "He is waiting for you in his study." Charles turned to Christian with a conflicted glance, the guard informed, "Master wants only you to meet him, Mr. Charles, he said young master Christian can wait in madam Rosaline's room till you come back for him." "Ummm... But, my nephew," Charles hesitated, and Christian who knew this is the opportunity for him to be alone with Rosaline has said, "It's okay uncle, I can wait here till you come back, so, don't worry about me and go to meet Mr. Valemire." Charles nodded and caressed Christian's hair, "I think it's better for you to wait inside the room itself, I’ll be back as soon as possible, stay here only till I come back." Christian nodded quietly like an obedient child.Charles then looked at the maid standing nearby. "He’s a bit shy around strangers, he'll be staying in Rosaline’s room till I return, please look after him." The maid blinked
SHE IS INSIDE
"Ezra, can you pull that curtain away?" Christian groaned sleepily not wanting his sleep to be disturbed, while Ezra sighed, "It's already morning Chris, day by day you're becoming lazy." With a huff, Christian got up and sat, "Ms. Thalia isn't here, at least at times like this, am I not supposed to be happy and enjoying?" "You can," Ezra said with a smile, "but you need to wake up too from the sleep, you can't be sleeping whole day..." Christian shook his head, "Last night, I've been thinking Ezra." "Thinking? What?" Ezra looked confused.Christian said, "Today, let's go and meet Ms. Rosaline." "Huh? Are you sure?" Christian nodded, "yes, whole night I've been thinking about that only, finally I took a decision, if we wanted to do something, why we should delay it? Let's go there..." "Do you think you're their son-in-law?" Ezra rolled his eyes, "It's not as easy as you think to go there whenever you wants and to leave when you wanted to, you need permission for both going and
ISN'T IT FAMILIAR TO YOU?
"I didn't mean that," Liliana shook her head. "They've tried everything, every physician, alchemist, enchanter, and healer, worth their name, but they couldn't even find out what's wrong with her."Christian was surprised to hear that, and immediately, he remembered about his uncle, "Wait... What about uncle Charles? He is named as a miracle doctor who can save anyone, even a dying person can be saved by uncle, why didn't he try to help her? Do we have any issues with them?" "No, Chris," Liliana gently placed her hand on Christian's hand, "Both of our families are so close to each other for decades, in fact Rosaline is a very good person, she even saved my life once, out of that gratitude, I took Charles to their home hoping he can help her, even Charles attempted to heal her for me." Christian straightened with an anxious face. "And?" "He failed." Her voice was quiet now, threaded with frustration. Christian looked surprised after hearing to Liliana, as far as he heard everyone p
WHERE IS SHE NOW?
"Where are you going at this hour?" Ezra asked, looking at Christian who is walking out, Christian said calmly, "Ummm... I'm going to the library...." Ezra scratched his head with a clueless face, "Library? At this hour? Are you crazy?" "No, I'm not," Christian said turning on the torch in his mobile, "I couldn't sleep, so I can't just lie down and do nothing, so I want to take a walk, rather than going here and there, I just want to the manor library to find books related to Valemire family." Ezra couldn't say no to Christian, so silently followed behind.Christian slowly made his way towards the manor library without making a sound, as he doesn't want to disturb anyone late in that night."Did you ever went to that library?" Ezra asked, Christian shook his head, "No, I just got to know directions to that library through James, but this is the first time, I'm going there...." Ezra hummed, "So, you knew nothing about this library?" "No, do you know anything?" Christian asked with
YOU THINK SOMEONE DID?
"Chris," Amelia gently tapped on Christian's hand, "Are you okay? Why did you keep your face like that? Still thinking about your grandfather's words?" Christian mumbled out of hesitation, "I'm scared... I'm worried too, that I might not be able to keep up with the expectations you all have on me, what if I failed? What if I...." "You're thinking too much, Chrissy," Liliana laughed, as she couldn't handle the serious look on Christian's face, "Do you even know what Charles had done when Ed has asked him to handle a meeting with foreign delegates?" Christian looked curious to know, Liliana shared the rest of the story, "Ed gave all the details but this man messed up, he read out something else rather than the he is supposed to discuss, he spoke about financial report as if they're in the company as an auditor, what should we do with this guy?" Everyone burst into laughter including Christian, Betty said, "Even Ed was nervous, because he is supposed to work under Lord Sargent, the g
