last update publish date: 2025-06-30 20:53:11

As soon as they finished eating, they left the cafeteria and head to Headmistress Eldryn’s office. Along the way, Julianne wondered why Velvet agreed so easily without pushing it off like she always does. They passed through stairs and corridors until they reached a door and Velvet went ahead to place a knock before opening it.

Julianne followed Velvet closely behind and shut the door before moving her eyes to see Headmistress Eldryn sitting at the table and looking down at a file in her hand.

    Another attack broke out in the clearing. It was a fight for freedom and survival.Maximus stepped out of the part of the forest that had burned down with Remus behind him and they watch the fight take place in front of them.“That must be the leader,” Remus said, looking at the one Scott fought head-to-head with.“Okay.” Maximus breathed the words out. “Will you go or should I?”“Are you seriously calling dibs right now?” Remus frowned at him.Maximus gave him a confused look. “That’s not what I’m doing. I’m just anxious that’s all. I can’t wait for this to end at once.”“And then what?” Remus asked. “What will you do once this is all over?”Maximus gave it a few seconds of thought and replied, “I might take a year off and disappear. It’s not like we can continue to live here anyway, and after today, the school will be under new developments.” He said seriously, “I’m thinking of finding a job. I’ll see which one I’m good at.”He caught Remus countenance and quickly added, “You know,

    “Where is Maximus?” was the first thing Kaidan asked.Ryker shook his head, clearly having no idea where he is. “The hunters attacked the dorm and we all got split. I haven’t seen him since then.” He noticed his mood and then asked, “What about Cassian? Where is he?”“Looking for Julianne,” he replied and walked past them.“He hasn’t found her yet?” He turned and called after him, “Where are you going?” “I need to find a dry place.”Ryker exchanged look with Lena and she raised her shoulders at him. They followed Kaidan and whispered behind him.They had not walked for long when Kaidan stepped on a dry leave that crumbled beneath his boot. He stopped and looked down before looking around and up the trees.“This is it,” he muttered and turned to Ryker. “How many hunters did you see?” he asked.“20?”“There’s more than that.”“Okay, so what are you trying to do?” Lena asked impatiently. “Why did you stop?”Kaidan looked at her and crouched down. “You said you’d give anything to watch m

    Thirty minutes had passed since the first explosion tore through the dorm.The students had been forced out after several more blasts damaged the building, and that was exactly what the hunters had been waiting for. The moment the vampires and wolves stepped outside, attacks came from every direction. Arrows flew from the trees while gunshots erupted from another side, sending everyone scrambling for cover.The students ran blindly into the forest, hoping to escape the hunters long enough to regroup and come up with a strategy. Instead, they were separated almost immediately. Some disappeared between the trees while others were chased deeper into the forest where the hunters had already prepared their positions.It had been planned perfectly, and it was working in the hunters' favor.Maximus and Remus crouched behind a large tree, watching several hunters move through the forest in search of the students. Scott was with them, his hand pressed against his shoulder where a bullet had to

    (Minutes before the explosion...)Maximus took another walk around the dorm, inspecting the damage from the previous night's attack. Broken furniture had been pushed aside, some windows were shattered, and the smell of smoke still lingered in the air. The others had taken turns guarding the dorm, but the tension among them remained impossible to ignore.He soon came across Remus, who was standing near one of the damaged walls.“Do you really think Cassian could have done something like that?” Remus asked.Maximus frowned at the mention of his name. “Put us in danger and not care if we get hurt in the process? Yes. At this point, it shouldn't even surprise me.”“That's not what I mean.” Remus sighed. The past few days had taken a toll on him, and there was a tiredness in his voice that Maximus hadn't heard before. “I feel like we're overlooking something important.”“Like what?”“Why would Cassian have a plan we knew nothing about?”Maximus looked away. “Remus, you need to stop making

    Velvet placed a hand on the wall and dropped down slowly. Her knees touched the ground and she stared blankly before her expression soon changed to that of someone that was deeply hurt.She couldn’t for the life of her understand why they have to go as far as to using her as a pawn, when from the start, she willingly accepted to come here and expose the monsters. She was stupid enough to trust that they considered her as family.Her parents had died early, but before that, they trusted her with someone, also a hunter. If she remembers correctly, her parents were good hunters and she has good memories of them. But to think that the people her parents had trusted her with would dispose of her like that…She lowered her eyes and stared longer at the ground. It soon started to make sense to her that Cassian could have killed her the day Fiona died and he suspected her. Cassian has always been ruthless, and she knows. And killing one of the people close to him means the person had to die t

  • Ashes and Bloodlines    Nothing but a pawn

    The three entered the basement and looked around with the help of the torch that Kaidan lit. Velvet examined the place, especially the damp walls from years of neglect. “This place is old,” she said. “It must have been here before the academy.”Cassian looked at her and asked, “You didn’t know about it?”Velvet shook her head and sighed. “I know, it’s a shame, but I never had any reason to suspect her before so I could never have thought she was up to no good.”They continued down, and the further they went, the colder the air became. “What do you think the headmistress does here?” Kaidan suddenly asked.Velvet shook her head, having no idea. “You think she has been prepared all along?”“I wouldn’t cross that,” she said. “I mean, it makes sense why she wants the journal back and had to kill Marianne for it. She doesn’t want anyone uncovering what she thought was buried.”She soon went completely silent after the mention of Marianne. She knew her death was partly her fault. She sho

    Julianne sat up in bed and had her eyes towards the window, waiting. The lights in her room were off and she sat like that for a while, waiting for Cassian to come in through her window. If it were not for Marianne, why would she be expecting a vampire to come in through her window, and that too in

    Julianne walked with Marianne to the library after classes were over. They met the library woman by the desk whose eyes were engrossed in a romance novel.Marianne pretended to cough and the woman looked up with a frown, as if angry that were cutting her spices short.“Yes?” she demanded.“I would

    Julianne was already panting when she reached the front desk of the dorm. The woman looked at her and asked, “Is there anything you want?”“I think someone broke into my room,” she said and tried to catch her breath.The woman looked at her like the calmest person in the whole school, then she aske

    The match ended with the blue team winning against the red team by four to one. Julianne walked down the bleachers to the field with Marianne right behind her, and Cassian, on sighting her, walked to meet up with her with his hair all damp and his shirt wet with sweat.“You lost,” she said to him.
