Lucien POV

“Tharros, will she be okay?” I asked with anxiety evident in my voice.

“Don't worry pal, she is fine. Her body is just exhausted from the power she holds. Until she can master her powers and her body grows accustomed to the power, she will feel weak every time she uses it. Her whole life the power has been domain so it takes time for the body to adjust accordingly to such great power but don’t worry she is fine” Tharros scholarly explained and it made me calm down a little then I realized another matter we needed to discuss and it was that werewolf claiming my mate as his.

“One more thing. I can understand what you are plotting in that head of yours, and I have been thinking for a while. At times, one is indeed paired to two mates.”I cut him off before he could finish his statement.

“Are you saying she would have to choose between the two of us?” I asked alarmed by his philosophical approach to this mate thing.

“In that case, she will be choosing me. Get ready to lose old bloodsucker” The arrogant just wanted to get on my nerves every time.

“Remind me again what are you doing in my kingdom?”I averted giving in to his provocation.

“Last week we killed a whole coven of witches and before some of them died they mentioned about a war coming and cryptic messages so I don’t think those witches you are petting are good” he narrated and it was truly alarming if witches were mobilizing this would mean another war against them.

“Those are different from others. They are allies Kiran” I tried to reason with him but his facial features showed that he was not pleased by this.

“Don't act like you don’t remember what we lost in the hands of witches and what about our convention the whole realm agreed to. Are we also going to play blind to it as well? I say we get rid of those witches” he stated with great anger evident on his face.

“Those witches are the guardians of the Destiny child who happens to be Emily. You just arrived and started creating a fuzz you need to listen here. Emily is the Destiny child and her importance is equal to those of the so-called witches you saw outside” Tharros said and I saw Kiran stable a little bit but his hand was clunched into a fist.

Just then a maid opened the room to the study room in great panic.

“Master, Miss Emily is sleepwalking and she looks creepy……….

Emily POV

I remember being in the study and now I was standing in a meadow. Suddenly the area became pitch black and the air became heavy.

“Child time is running out. Look to your left” I heard a voice saying in my head and I looked to the left.

The world was divided and werewolves and vampires were in a gruesome war. It was severe and quite disturbing. I saw Kiran the werewolf and Lucien fighting each other and there was great animosity between them. When their fists collided the whole realm shook.

“What is happening?” I asked no one in particular hoping the voice in my head to reply me.

“The war is fast approaching Emily. Now is the time to take the reigns of the horse. Someone has already been controlling the course of the narrative. Dig deep Emily and you will find the answers you seek one more thing I have always been there for you and when you need me just call” the voice said and it became dead silent leaving me to the gruesome scene of the war between the vampires and werewolves. I watched as they tore each other’s stomachs and their intestines all over the place. Bloodshed had turned into a stream of blood and I was crying for both Lucien and Kiran to stop but none of them was listening to me.

Suddenly the surroundings started familiarising and I found myself in my room inside a golden bubble with everyone looking at me with worried expressions.

“Emily are you okay” Aunt May came to my side when the bubble burst.

“What happened?” I asked.

“You passed out in the study and we took you here to rest and suddenly you started sleepwalking saying some chants I didn’t quite recognise.Tharros then put you inside the bubbles to stop you from hurting yourself from walking around”she explained and the contents I saw in the vision came back to me.

“I had another vision and this time, I saw a war breaking out between the werewolves and vampires. I tried calling out to Lucien and Kiran but they didn’t listen” I said looking at both of them with equal worry for each one of them.

“I think we are running out of time and we need to go to the temple immediately” I heard Tharros say when I felt a gush of wind come outside my window it seemed like danger and my body instinctively dodged and an arrow missed me.

“Emily get to safety” everyone called and I saw Lucien say some chants and disappear into a vortex of black light only to appear shortly after with a person in his arms.

“Who sent you and what do you want?”Lucien tried to get him to talk but the man only uttered a small sentence before he swallowed a potion no one saw he had, “The child of the moon will be the end of us all”, was the sentence he s

    Lucien POV When I saw the arrow that missed Emily my heart stopped for a while and rage coursed through my veins. Who was after her life and what did they hope to achieve with her death? I opened a portal and sneaked on the attacker. I caught him when he was just about to escape and he happened to be a vampire but his strength was far inferior to mine. I dragged him back with me to the place and he committed suicide then.“It seems like this war involves not only witches but everyone, " Kiran said, and my mind was all focused on Emily’s safety.I went beside her and squatted down and caressed her cheek to see if she was not injured. Whoever wanted her dead must first go through me.“Tharros where is this temple?” I asked.“ Deep inside the woods on the Northern forest…” he answered but was not given the time to finish his sentence as the werewolf stopped him mid-sentence.“I know the Northen forest like the back of my pal but I have never across any building talk about a temple,” he

I held, and I felt this course of energy flow inside my bloodstream, and it changed from deep night black to grey. The shadow bowed down before it dissipated into the air.Before we could even go inside the temple we were surrounded by these mysterious creatures or people but when Lucien heard the woman’s voice his hand which was holding me flinched. He was nearly crushing my bones with his grip.“Priestess Azara! What are you doing here? Didn’t we destroy you a long time ago? Well, I would be even happier to kill you over and over” he said looking at the woman who had stepped outside the shadows now being illuminated by the moonlight.She wore a black cloak and her subordinates were covering their faces. She had the most terrifying face I have ever come across. She had black hair and her face was adorned with jewels and it was tatooed.“Lucien Valois we meet again .You s

Did the Priestess Azara capture her and take her to her sanctuary? I woke up and walked out of bed ready to find my way to escape when the door to the cottage was opened from the outside. An old lady walked in who had a hunched back. The lines on her face showed the wisdom and years she had lived. Unlike Azara, he did not have a scarry carving like those which her subordinates had. “You are finally awake, " she smiled, holding my hand while directing me to go back and sit on the bed. “Where am I ?” I asked. “Somewhere Azara wouldn’t even dare to look for you. I have waited my whole life to meet the Destiny Child and finally, I have seen you. Am very happy” she sweetly replied. “I remember fighting with Azara at the Moon temple and I passed out how did I end up here” I asked with great confusion on my face. “Well, your sh

We quickly swam ashore where our clothes were and put them on each running towards the cottage.“Where is she, Deloris? Either you speak or I will continue killing every member of your hideous coven” We saw Priestess Azara and her members standing at the burning cottage with some of the witches slaughtered. Since she was looking for me I felt guilty for bringing trouble to these innocent people.“I don’t know” the old witch replied and I guess this reply enraged the priestess as she signaled her minions and another witch was killed.I couldn’t take it anymore and I wanted to run into the situation but Lucine stopped me.“Wait who knows if she is not playing some tricks with us” he said in a voice lower than a whisper.Suddenly we heard the rustling of leaves behind us and Tharros appeared.

Guys, we will face a series of tests and probably our worst nightmares, and we need to survive the nightmares for us to move forward to the next round. For now, just know that whatever you see or hear is just an illusion, no matter how realistic it might seem,” Tharros said.

    Kieran’s POVEver since that night I found myself unconsciously drawn to the dungeon where Lena was held, nothing had felt right. Something inside me shifted—and not just mentally. My instincts, my wolf, the very core of my being had begun to turn cold toward Emily. She had changed. Dramatically.I tried to ignore it at first. Blamed it on stress. The Veil. The war.But I couldn’t shake the truth. Emily wasn’t the same woman who once felt like the other half of my soul. The more time passed, the more I saw it—how she moved, how others responded to her. Rhaegos and Azara had practically started treating her like royalty. Not just with respect… but with submission. And the strangest thing was, she seemed to expect it.I took my concerns to Lucien, hoping we could look into it together—like real allies, maybe even like brothers. But he didn’t want to hear it. He blew up at me, accused me of being ungrateful, said I never truly trusted our mate. He even claimed I didn’t deserve her.It hu

My eyes snapped open just as the executioner gripped the switch that would release the massive blade hanging above my neck.He pulled it.I held my breath, bracing for death.But just as the blade began to fall, a loud explosion rocked the arena. The crowd screamed. The blade stopped—hovering mid-air, as if frozen by some unseen force.I blinked. I was still alive.Sabine’s figure burst through the chaos. She was locked in a brutal fight with the executioner, sword flashing in the chaos. Blood sprayed, and after one final strike, she killed him.Without a word, she cut through my bindings and pulled me to my feet.“Come on!” she shouted, yanking me into motion.“Where are we going?” I gasped, stumbling after her. I wasn’t sure I could trust her—she hadn’t exactly treated me kindly since I got here. Why was she helping me now

    EMILY – POVAfter being left alone to tend to my wounds, I curled into myself, shivering in the cold, damp cell. As the blood dried on my skin, I found my thoughts drifting back to a time when life was simple—when I was just a regular girl from Seattle. I hated the ache gnawing at my chest, this sense of longing that never went away. But there was nothing I could do.A guard returned, carrying a metal plate with something that barely resembled food. One whiff, and my stomach turned. I couldn’t hold it in. I vomited—right on his boots."You bitch! How dare you!" he shouted, enraged. Without warning, he kicked me hard in the stomach, the impact sending me crashing several feet across the floor.Pain bloomed in every inch of my body. I lay there, breathless and trembling, the agony consuming me. I was done. If this was the destiny the Moon Goddess had written for me, then I didn’t want it. I couldn’t keep going like this. My body ached, but the pain in my heart was far worse.Why, Goddes

Desperately.But how could I reach them? Would they even notice the difference?As I was dragged through the streets by the guards, people recoiled at the sight of me.Hatred burned in their eyes.Rotten vegetables, eggs, even animal filth rained down around me.I flinched under the assault, humiliated and confused.What had Lena done to deserve this much hatred?

  • BLOOD AND MOONLIGHT   A stranger in her own skin

    Kiran's POVAlthough we had successfully crossed into the Veil, the air was thick with tension. Tharros’s expression didn’t help—it screamed trouble. I glanced around, spotting those familiar eyes watching me again. The same ones that stared at me from mirrors... eyes buried in darkness, paired with a crooked smirk.“What is it, Tharros?” I asked, already dreading the answer. Magic was never my thing, and this place felt like a cursed dream.“When we entered the Veil, we cracked its protective barrier,” he said gravely. “And now, something evil has slipped through. The Unforgotten have been summoned back into the land of the living.”That stopped me cold. My stomach twisted. We’d just unleashed an ancient nightmare—and someone out there was planning to start a war while we were stuck here.“What do we do now?” I asked, already moving faster.“We get to Emily,” Tharros said. “She needs to finish her final trial. After that, we return—fast.”As we headed for the celestial gates where Em

    Priestess Azara“What do we do now?” Rhaegos, the old vampire, grumbled, his voice heavy with impatience.I didn’t even turn to look at him. “What do you mean, what do we do? We wait, obviously,” I said, moving toward my bookshelf. My fingers skimmed the aged spines until I pulled free a thick, dust-covered tome.I placed the ancient book on the wooden table and blew off the layer of dust. The musty scent of old pages and ink wafted into the air, oddly comforting. As I flipped it open, my fingertips brushed along the fragile paper until I found the section I needed.Rhaegos narrowed his eyes as he caught the title. “What are you doing with the Book of the Damned?”“What does it look like I’m doing?” I muttered, not looking up. “I’m seizing an opportunity.”“Opportunity? Does Maledicta know about this?” His questions came rapid-fire, his nerves clearly getting the better of him.“Of course she knows,” I replied sharply. “Do you really think I’d risk messing up her grand plan?” I continu

    Lucien’s POV"There must be something we can do, Tharros!" I clenched my fists and paced before the Veil. "We must support Emily in some way; we must be by her side."Kiran said softly and anxiously, "She's absorbing energy from a soul inside the Veil." "We can't just stand here."Tharros's golden eyes flickered as he crossed his arms. "Neither of you is seeing the wider picture. The Veil is more than just an opening we can prod. Even attempting to open it or tampering with it could cause uncontrollable chaos. I apologize, but I don't believe we should take the chance. I felt a wave of frustration. I struck the invisible barrier that separated the Veil from us. It vibrated menacingly as it shuddered under the force.“Yeah, we get it—you’re the oldest and the wisest,” Kiran said, stepping forward, eyes blazing. “But don’t hesitate now, Tharros. Think of the lives we could save if we bring Emily back. Even if monsters spill out of the Veil, we’ll deal with them. But if we lose her agai

    Kiran’s POVRhaegos and Azara fought a vicious battle, but as usual, their cursed soldiers were defeated and had vanished into the night. "Guys, what do we do now? Lucien? I inquired, becoming more confident in him every second. A change occurred between us, a mild release of the tension that had always existed. Things had started to change as they fought side by side.Lucien's words rested in the air, confusing me: "Rhaegos told me before he disappeared that when Emily returns, she won't be ours." It didn't make sense, but I knew enough about the magical world to know that this meant something significant. I looked at Tharros, who had an anxious look on his face.“It could mean a lot of things,” Tharros said, his voice tight with worry. “As I told you before, there are dark forces at play. If it’s what I think, we might be losing Emily.” He clenched his fists.“What are you thinking? Stop speaking in riddles, man,” I snapped, frustration rising in me.Tharros met my gaze, his eyes

Now what? The Harbinger showed up like a wraith out of the darkness before I could even collect my thoughts, his voice as steady and icy as ever. "Emily, this is the Trial of the Body." The ground beneath me suddenly transformed, and I could feel my bare feet sinking into muddy, cold soil. I raised my head. I could see figures approaching. Not strangers. No. They looked like all of the enemies I had ever came across. It was she, the Princess Azara, who led them.She came straight at me, sword raised, her eyes glowing with a cold, cruel fire. The blade gleamed in the dark as she swung at me. I managed to duck, but not before it sliced off a lock of my hair.She looked exactly like the Priestess from the Blood Moon cult—same aura, same fury. No, this wasn’t a coincidence. This trial want
