Homecoming
**Kaels pov** No one spoke for several moments after I agreed, the tension that had filled Alaric’s office slowly disappeared. Mother smiled first, relief washed over her face.“I’m so glad.” She stood and wrapped me in another hug before I could protest. “You’ve spent too long away.”Elara laughed. “I told you he’d say yes eventually.”“I didn’t say eventually.”“You did now.”I rolled my eyes. “You haven’t changed.”“Neither have you.”Father rose from his chair and approached headmaster Alaric. “I appreciate everything you’ve done for my son.”Headmaster Alaric inclined his head. “He’s become an exceptional young man.”“He still has much to learn.”“I believe he’ll surprise all of us.”Father looked at me. “I intend to begin his royal training immediately after we return.” Headmaster Alaric nodded. “That is precisely what I hoped to hear, the First King is unlike any enemy our world has faced, je’ll need every advantage.”Father’s expression became serious. “I’ll personal
Time To Go Home
**Kaels Pov** The meeting ended long after the sun had disappeared beneath the mountains. The Grand Assembly Hall slowly emptied as kings, queens, nobles, and advisors gathered into smaller groups, discussing strategies and exchanging promises of cooperation. Everywhere I looked, there were soldiers preparing for a war that hadn’t officially begun. The First King had changed everything, yet my thoughts remained fixed on only one person… Aurora. As soon as the meeting concluded, I slipped away from the crowd and returned to the underground archives beneath Blackthorn Academy. The ancient journals still lay scattered across the stone tables where we had left them the previous evening. I picked up another worn scroll and unrolled it carefully, nothing, another incomplete record, another mention of a sealed vessel without explaining where the prison was located. I rubbed my temples in frustration.“There has to be something.” I reached for another book, then anot
My Parents
**Kaels pov** I didn’t remember running, one moment I was standing in the library. The next, I was pushing through crowds of students gathering along the academy’s front courtyard. The annual Parent Council had always been one of Blackthorn Academy’s most important traditions, kings, queens, dukes, and clan leaders. Every influential family whose child attended the academy arrived to discuss the year’s events with the Headmaster. In my previous life, I had always greeted my parents with confidence. Today, my legs felt weak, the massive academy gates slowly opened, and dozens of royal carriages rolled through one after another. The Witch Kingdom, the Werewolf Kingdom, the Wizard Council, and the Noble Vampire Houses. Each carriage was escorted by knights carrying banners that fluttered proudly in the evening wind. Students hurried toward their families, some laughed, while some embraced their parents, and others bowed respectfully. I stood perfectly still, my e
The Royal Council
**Kaels pov** The academy had never felt so empty, students still filled the hallways, professors still lectured inside classrooms, and training continued every morning. From the outside, Blackthorn Academy looked unchanged, but everyone knew something had happened beneath the school. Rumors spread faster than wildfire, some whispered that a forbidden beast had escaped. Others claimed the Headmaster had secretly defeated an ancient monster, but only a handful of people knew the truth. And every morning, I woke up hoping Aurora would somehow be standing outside my room.Every morning, I was disappointed.***** Three days had passed since the First King escaped, three days without a single clue, and three days without Aurora. I hadn’t slept for more than a few hours at a time, whenever I closed my eyes, I saw her reaching for the fourth pillar, I heard her scream, then she was gone.“Kael.”I looked up from the ancient map spread across the library table.Lyra stood in fr
Who Did It?
**Kaels pov**“Aurora!” My voice echoed through the ruined chamber, but there was no answer. I threw aside broken pieces of crystal, my crimson aura illuminating the dust that still hung in the air. The place where Aurora had been standing moments ago was nothing but shattered stone and the remains of the fourth pillar, there was no blood, and no body. It was as though she had simply vanished.“Kael!”Adrian grabbed my shoulder before I could jump into the crack itself. “You can’t go down there!”I shoved him away. “She was right here!”“I know!”“I won’t leave her!” Another wave of ancient power erupted from the abyss, forcing all of us backward, as the First King hadn’t moved. He simply stood on the broken seal with his hands behind his back, watching us like a king observing children. His smile never faded.“You search for the witch princess.”I glared at him. “Where is she?”He tilted his head. “Do you truly think I would answer that?”My vampire aura burst around me. “I
Aurora is gone!
**Kaels pov** The second pillar cracked with a shrill, ear piercing sound. Fine fractures raced across its surface like lightning.“No!” Headmaster Alaric roared. He threw both hands forward, ancient runes erupting around him as he tried to reinforce the pillar. Golden chains of magic wrapped themselves around the crystal, slowing the cracks for only a heartbeat before the entire structure exploded. The chamber shook violently, a wave of crimson energy burst upward from the broken seal, knocking every one of us off our feet. I slammed into the stone floor, the air driven from my lungs.“Kael!” Aurora cried.“I’m fine!” I forced myself upright just as the ground split wider beneath us. The crack that had once been only a few feet across now stretched nearly the length of the chamber. Dark crimson mist poured from the opening, it wasn’t smoke, and it wasn’t magic. It felt… alive. The temperature dropped so suddenly that frost spread across the stone floor. Adr
