登入ALPHA DOWN! 🐺📉 Did you see that?! Jaxon’s power literally sputtered out like a cheap flashlight! 💅 Rina didn't just beat Silas; she mentally broke the future Alpha in front of the entire school.

Literally. ❄️ Drop a '⚔️' if you’re ready for the Saturday Ball! 🍷 The stage is set, the shards are humming, and Jaxon is officially terrified. 👇✨ Will Jaxon try to beg for forgiveness before the Ball, or will he double down on Selene to protect his bruised ego? 🔥🖋️
Moments later,RinaThe Potion Alchemy lab smelled of sulfur, dried nightshade, and the sharp, clinical sting of neutralizing salts. It was a room designed for precision - a place where a single drop of misplaced essence could turn a healing draft into a corrosive sludge. Usually, I found the repetition of measuring and stirring grounding, but today, the air felt like it was charged with static."Focus, Mira," Emberlyn whispered from the neighboring workstation. She was wearing a heavy dragon-hide apron, her glowing ember-braids tucked tightly under a protective cap. "Professor Thorne is watching. If we fail this basic Revitalizing Draught, he’ll have us scrubbing vats for a month."I didn't answer. My hands were steady, but my skin felt tight. The Void-essence within me - the entity that was Silvie - wasn't pacing; she was leaning forward, her star-lit eyes peering through mine at the swirling liquid in my cauldron."
The next day, Rina The lecture hall for Magical Law & Ethics was usually a place of quiet, dusty academia, filled with the scratching of quills and the smell of old parchment. Today, it felt like a trial at the High Courts. The air was thick with the scent of ozone and the heavy, oppressive mana of the noble houses. "She’s a Revenant! A breach of the Natural Order!" The shout came from Jaxon’s cousin, a high-ranking Lycan who stood at the front of the hall, his hand slamming into the mahogany desk. Behind him, a dozen noble students - vampires, elven royalty, and pack heirs - formed a wall of righteous indignation. "We saw the diagnostics report!" another girl cried, her eyes flashing with a judgmental, golden light. "The scanners at the Healing Faculty didn't just malfunction; they were annihilated by her presence. She is a biological hazard. Under the Purity Acts of 1402, she should be in a

RinaThe Healing Faculty didn't smell like healing.It smelled like forced peace—lavender crushed until it wept, sterile sage burned to mask what lingered beneath, and underneath it all the metallic tang of high-grade mana-suppressants. The kind they used on students whose power had become indistinguishable from pathology. The kind that made your teeth ache and your thoughts feel like they were moving through syrup.Usually this place was a sanctuary. Vaulted ceilings, stained glass filtering light into colors that suggested divinity, the soft murmur of recovery. A playground for the elite to convalesce from dueling bruises and social slights.But Seraphina's grip on my arm was too tight. Her fingers bit into the meat above my elbow, the particular pressure of someone who'd forgotten how to touch gently, who'd been holding on too hard for too long. And as she dragged me through the vaulted archway, the scent changed.Beneath the lavender. Beneath the sage.Blood. Old and fresh and som
RinaThe doors to the Transmutation hall were iron-banded oak, swollen with centuries of humidity and warded with runes that scraped like static against my teeth. I reached for the handle—cold, pitted, the metal flaking rust beneath my palm—and felt it.Not a gaze. Something heavier. A pressure against the peripheral architecture of my vision, a shadow that didn't cast itself from any student body, any witchlight, any honest source of darkness.I didn't turn.I knew that weight. That particular, patient hunger. Gothfather Morthos, watching from the upper gallery where the stonework crumbled into gargoyle mouths and blind alcoves. His terrifying curiosity, a living thing with its own pulse, feeding on the chaos I was sewing thread by thread.He had given me the match.Jaxon was providing the fuel.And I was more than happy to let the world burn.---The rest of the day passed in a blur of forced normalcy. I sat through lectures on molecular shift and mana-core resonance, my fingers tra
RinaThe corridor smelled like dying lilies.That was the first thing wrong. Aetherion's stone passages always carried the mineral bite of old magic, the dry static of wards humming behind every archway. But today, beneath it, rot. Sweet and cloying, the kind of scent that pooled at the back of the throat and refused to swallow.I knew that smell. I'd worn it once, in a coffin, with dirt in my lungs.Not now. Not here.My leather satchel dug into my hip, heavy with texts on forbidden resonance theory. Every step felt deliberate—too deliberate, the walk of someone who'd learned that predators noticed rhythm, that survival meant breaking pattern. I wasn't Lumira Duskbane anymore. I was a fracture in the architecture they'd built their lives upon, a violet-threaded crack running through the foundation of everything they believed untouchable.The stones themselves seemed to pulse. Not with light. With memory. Since the unbinding in the Labyrinth, since Silvie had poured herself back into
Rina’s POVThe sky had bruised into a deep regal violet by the time the bells tolled for the late afternoon session. While the sun was still technically visible, the Faculty of Arcane Arts & Mysticism always seemed to exist in a state of perpetual twilight. I adjusted the strap
Meanwhile, In the Great Refectory, Jaxon’s POV The feast tasted like ash. I sat at the center of the Terra table, surrounded by the familiar scent of my pack - damp earth, pine, and woodsmoke - but for the first time in my life, I felt like an outsider in m
Moments later,The Grand Hall of Fethor Aetherium,Rhea’s POVThe President’s speech didn't just end; it dissolved into a shimmering haze of arcane energy that hung in the air like a physical weight, tasting of ozone, dried roses, and the metallic tang of old parchment. The Grand Hall of Aetherion
Administrative Manor, Provost's Office.Rina’s POVThe silence was a void. It stretched across the mahogany, insulating Jaxon and Caleb’s shock from the predatory fascination of the eighteen other scions. Jaxon’s massive frame remained folded over his chair. He lo
