Bloodbound: The legacy of Serelai Chapter 60: The Howling at the Door
The silence after the hunters fled was thin and fragile, it was from the kind of quiet that rings in your ears after thunder, a space waiting to fill. Ash held Liora, feeling her small shakes, she was alive. The miracle weighed heavily in his chest, but the cost lay on the floor: a blank and an ordinary book.Ronan was first to break the silence, he walked to the journal and picked it up, turning the empty leather in his hands. His face, usually stone-cold, cracked with grief. “It’s gone,” he said, finally. “The vessel is empty.”Liora pulled from Ash, eyes fixed on the book, one tear traced a clear path through dust on her cheek. “They gave themselves for me,” she whispered.“They gave themselves for us,” Ash said, voice rough, he gestured to the healed room, to Kael pushing himself up groaning, to Elara’s amazed face. “The power was meant to save life. It just chose which one.”That truth was a weak shield, the chain that bound Liora was broken, but it was also her spine and now she
Bloodbound: The legacy of Serelai Chapter 59: The Unravelling
The silence in the Calibration Room was alive and it was the quiet after a storm that had changed everything. Kael lay asleep but calm, the terrible green light finally gone from his veins. The journal rested on his chest, its cover a perfect, detailed pattern of silver scars pulsing with a soft, warm, steady light, it felt alive and complete.Elara let out a soft sob, hiding her face in Kael’s shoulder, Ronan leaned on a broken console, the weight of centuries lifting from him. Ash’s arms pulled Liora close, and she felt him kiss her hair, a silent, shaky breath of relief.For one long, fragile moment, they just breathed the peace they had fought for, then the journal grew warm, not the soft warmth from before, but a heat that soon felt too strong on Liora’s skin. She pulled it away from Kael’s chest, flinching.The silver scars brightened, changing from a gentle glow to a bright, blinding white, and a low hum filled the room, shaking the stone floor and their bones. It was the sam
Bloodbound: The legacy of Serelai Chapter 58: The Last Key
The cave was quiet except for their fire crackling and heavy breathing. The journal’s map had disappeared; its job was done. The last target wasn’t on any map, it was sleeping just five feet away,Kael lay on his bedroll, his chest rising and falling steadily and calmly. He looked better than he had in weeks but the delicate, lace-like silver scars on his arm glowed with a soft, sick green light, the same light that had marked every seed they hunted. It was a heartbeat.A sleeping dragon stirring in its lair, Liora’s discovery hung between them, too big to take in, and they weren’t just hunters or guards, they were healers, and the hardest healing was about to start, on her brother.Ash was the first to stand, knife in hand, not to fight, just out of habit. His eyes were wide, fixed on Kael’s glowing arm. “It was inside him this whole time?”“The biggest piece,” Liora said, voice shaking. “The infection’s heart. It went quiet when we broke the link at the mill, but now… it feels lik
Bloodbound: The legacy of Serelai Chapter 57: The Prison and the Key
The silence after the Scourge disappeared was complete. It was the silence of a tomb, of holding breath for too long and Ash and Liora sat on the cold floor of the cottage, limbs tangled, hearts pounding against each other’s ribs. The only sign of the fight was the faint, silver scar now on the journal’s cover, a lasting mark of their desperate win.Liora’s fingers traced the scar and it was cool, humming with low, held-back energy. “It’s in there,” she whispered, her voice too loud in the quiet. “We didn’t destroy it. We... trapped it.”Ash looked at her, his arm still tight around her. “A box with a lock we don’t understand.” His hunter’s practicality returned, pushing down the fear. “What if the lock breaks?”Before anyone answered, a tired groan came from the loft. Kael leaned over the edge, face pale but alert. “Did it work? Is it gone?”“It’s trapped,” Ronan called from his place by the door, voice cautious. “For now.”Elara helped Kael down the ladder. He moved slowly, but the
Bloodbound: The legacy of Serelai Chapter 56: The Keeper of Tomorrows
The silence after Kael’s warning felt alive, a cold snake curling around them in the dusty cottage. It wasn’t quiet because there was no sound; it was quiet because a terrible, waiting future filled the air.It’s coming for you.Those words weren’t just a warning, they were a death sentence. Ash stood frozen by the window, his back to everyone. His shoulders, usually standing tall, were slumped. The target wasn’t Liora, or Kael, or the world, it was him. The future Liora had fought for a future Ash didn’t even know existed until she gave it up to save Kael was now the very thing that could kill him.He turned around, the raw fear he’d shown before was gone, replaced by cold, fierce anger. When his eyes met Liora’s, they were no longer the eyes of her protector, they were the eyes of a man who had already accepted what was coming.“Then we won’t let it take me,” he said, low and flat. “We use me.”“What?” Liora and Kael said together.“Does it want me? Fine. Let it come. We’ll be ready
Bloodbound: The legacy of Serelai Chapter 55: The Cost of an Anchor
The silence in the cottage after the shadow left was heavier than any battle noise. It was the silence of a broken safe place, a dream picked up, looked at by cruel hands, then dropped and cracked forever. Dust floated in the weak light through the dirty window, but it didn’t feel peaceful anymore and it looked like dust from ash.Ash’s hold on Liora was the only thing real. He wasn’t just holding her, he was holding on like a drowning man, fingers gripping the back of her tunic tight. His breath was ragged, heart pounding fast against her ear where she held it to his chest. He was a "fierce protector," but here, he was the one who needed protecting, from the monster wearing his face.“It used my mother,” he finally said hoarsely, words from a deep, private pain. “It used her to get to me. To get to you.”Liora could only hold him tighter. The "forbidden romance" was this: a love so strong it became a weapon for their enemy. Their strength had been mapped and was now being used as a g
