Aurora Is Almost Out
**Aurora’s pov** I stared at the figure in the mirror. They stood completely still, their face remained hidden beneath a dark hood, I couldn’t tell whether they were male or female, but there was something familiar about the silhouette, something that made my stomach twist.“Who are you?” The figure didn’t answer, instead, they raised a hand, the image changed, I saw myself sleeping in the small room near the northern district, then myself eating beside the fountain, then myself reading in the library. The figure had watched everything, every day, every moment, they knew what I had discovered, they knew how long I had been here, they knew I was searching for a way home. My breathing became shallow.“How are you doing this?”The figure finally spoke. “Because I was there when you were taken.”My eyes widened. “You were there?”“Closer than you realize.” They responded The mirror went dark, so I stepped backward. “Wait!” I heard nothing, the image disappeared comple
I Need To Leave!
**Aurora’s pov** I had stopped counting the days. At first, I tried, I marked the walls of my room with small scratches whenever I woke up. One mark for every day, after a while, the marks became impossible to count. I had stopped because I realized something terrifying. Time did not move normally in the Kingdom of Shadows, a day here was not a day outside, and a week here could pass while only a few hours passed in the real world, I had known that from the scrolls. But knowing something and experiencing it were two completely different things. I sat alone in the library, surrounded by ancient scrolls, my candle flickered beside me, I had become almost accustomed to the silence. I pulled another scroll from the shelf.“THE HISTORY OF THE FOUR BLOODLINES.” I had already read it twice, but I was beginning to realize that the First King had hidden important pieces of information throughout different texts. Nothing was written plainly, every answer seemed to lead to an
Who is The Traitor?
**Kael’s pov** I couldn’t stop thinking about Duskbane, his explanation hadn’t cleared him, but it had created another possibility. Someone had wanted us to find those records, someone had wanted Duskbane to look guilty. And if that was true… then the real traitor was still free. I returned to the palace library and spent hours studying the evidence, but I found nothing. Every trail led back to Duskbane, too neatly. That bothered me, because a real traitor would make mistakes, but this was almost perfect. I was still staring at the documents when Lyra walked in.“You’ve been here all morning.”I looked up.“I’ve been busy.”She smiled. “I can see that.”She sat beside me. “Did you find Aurora?”“Not yet.”“But you know where she is.”I nodded.“She’s in the Kingdom of Shadows.”Lyra’s expression softened. “Then we’ll get her back.”I looked at her. “You keep saying that.”“Because I mean it.” She reached for my hand, but I didn’t pull away. Her fingers slipped between m
More On Kael’s Rebirth
**Kael’s pov** I barely slept after hearing the First King’s voice, every time I closed my eyes, I saw that hidden kingdom, the black tower, the endless library, and Aurora alive. That single fact was enough to keep me awake until morning, but there was something else I couldn’t stop thinking about, the First King had told me to ask Father about the first Primordial Vessel. He had said the truth about my rebirth was waiting for me. I needed answers, and I needed them now. I found Father in his study just after sunrise, he was standing over a table covered with ancient documents. He looked up when I entered.“You came early.”“I couldn’t sleep.”He sighed. “I assumed as much.”He picked up a scroll. “I found something.”My attention immediately sharpened. “What?”“This was hidden in the royal archives.” He placed the scroll on the table and slowly unrolled it, the parchment was old enough that some of the edges had turned brown. At the top was the symbol of the Prim
Discussions between I And The First King
**Kaels’s pov** That night, I couldn’t sleep, I lay awake staring at the ceiling of my room, listening to the silence of the palace. Everything should have felt peaceful, I was home, my family was alive, Adrian was nearby, Lyra was here, and ny training was progressing well. Yet something felt wrong, I kept thinking about Aurora. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw her disappearing, the flash of magic, the broken seal, her hand slipping from mine, then nothing. I sat up, because I couldn’t stay in bed, I needed answers. I grabbed my coat and left my room, the palace corridors were almost completely dark. I walked toward the eastern library, hoping I might find another record concerning the First King. The library doors opened quietly, then I entered. Hundreds of ancient books surrounded me, I lit a candle and began searching. Hours passed, I found nothing. I found information about ancient seals, but they were nothing useful. Old records concerning the First K
Father Help!
**Kael’s pov****Back to the real world and time** The sound of steel striking steel echoed across the eastern training grounds. I blocked Father’s sword and immediately stepped to the side, he followed, so I ducked beneath his next strike and swung toward his shoulder. He stopped my blade inches away.“Better.”I lowered my sword, breathing heavily. “Only better?”Father smiled. “You want praise?”“I wouldn’t mind some.”“You’ll get it when you earn it.”I shook my head. Some things had not changed. Even after everything I had experienced, training with Father still felt strangely familiar, except this time, I wasn’t training simply because I wanted to become the strongest vampire in the kingdom, I was training because I needed to survive what was coming. The First King had returned, Aurora was missing, someone had sabotaged our plan, and somewhere among the people we trusted, there was a traitor. Father lowered his sword.“Enough for today.” I nodded and walked t
