The moment we stepped into the apartment, our phones vibrated at the exact same time. It was like the universe had synced us just for dramatic effect. Sammy and I exchanged a look and couldn’t help but grin. Some things are just oddly satisfying, like chocolate straight out of the wrapper or hitting every green light on the way home.

I picked up my phone first, swiping the screen open, and froze. There it was: an email from the Academy.

    🖱️Jayden🖱️The moment we stepped into the apartment, our phones vibrated at the exact same time. It was like the universe had synced us just for dramatic effect. Sammy and I exchanged a look and couldn’t help but grin. Some things are just oddly satisfying, like chocolate straight out of the wrapper or hitting every green light on the way home.I picked up my phone first, swiping the screen open, and froze. There it was: an email from the Academy.Subject: Important Update – Second Semester ScheduleDear Students,We hope you enjoyed your holiday. Please be informed that the holiday has been shortened. Classes for the second semester will commence in three days. We apologize for the sudden notice and thank you for your understanding.I blinked at it. Then blinked again. “Wait… what the fuck?” I muttered, showing it to Sammy.He leaned over, reading it carefully, his expression slowly turning from curious to concerned. “Has… has this ever happened before?” I asked, because this was

    🖱️Sammy🖱️I watched Victor leave, his long coat swaying behind him like some dark angel taking flight, and I knew I had to step out of our little bubble too. It has almost being ten minutes or more since Victor left. The plan was moving now. Threads were pulling, alliances forming, power shifting. Everything was in motion, and I had my part to play. But before I dove into strategy, politics, and chaos, there was someone I needed to check on. Someone who mattered more than all the supernatural chess games combined.Jayden.He was sitting on the couch, legs curled under him, scrolling through his phone with that same intense concentration he always had when he was trying not to feel something too much. I sat down across from him, watching him in silence for a moment. His hair was falling slightly in his face, his expression soft but guarded, like he’d built a wall and I was tiptoeing on the other side.“Hey,” I said softly. He looked up, startled for half a second, and then gave me th

    🖱️Victor🖱️Thirty minutes.That was all it took.Thirty minutes after we posted that picture and my phone was practically overheating from the amount of calls coming in. Notifications were one thing. Public outrage was another. But my father? That man was calling like the world was ending and I personally forgot to send him the memo.By the tenth missed call, my battery had already dropped to fifteen percent.By the twentieth, it died.I stared at the black screen and exhaled slowly. “That old man needs to take a chill pill,” I muttered.Jayden was sitting cross legged on the bed, still glowing from the chaos we caused. Sammy was sprawled dramatically beside him, scrolling through his own phone like he was enjoying the apocalypse.“Well guys,” I said, straightening up, “I need to go take care of my old man. The plan is already in motion, so it’s time I become king.”The words felt heavy.Jayden stood up immediately. He didn’t say anything for a second. He just walked toward me and w

    🖱️ Jayden 🖱️“Wait… you have a way to stop this whole thing with one of us dying?” I asked, sitting up so fast I almost headbutted Victor in the chin.They both looked at each other.That look.The one that says we are about to do something insane but trust us.“So…” Victor began.“So what, man? Talk. Don’t keep me in suspense,” I shot back immediately because my heart was already racing and I did not have the emotional capacity for dramatic pauses.“Chill, my love,” Victor said, smirking like he wasn’t about to drop some life altering information on me.“Yeah, chill, my love,” Sammy mimicked him in the exact same tone and I swear if I wasn’t emotionally unstable I would have thrown a pillow at both of them.“How the hell did I end up in love with these two idiots?” I muttered out loud.They both smiled.Then they both stopped smiling at the same time and their faces turned serious.That scared me more than anything.Victor sat beside me properly now, his knee touching mine. “We’re

    🖱️Sammy🖱️ “We should probably go let Jayden in on the plan,” I said, looking at the bedroom door like it was some ancient vault he’d locked up with all the secrets of the world inside. The faint sound of muffled sniffles through the wood didn’t help. “Yeah, we should,” Victor agreed, his voice low but steady, the kind that makes you feel like he’s thinking ten steps ahead even when he’s just staring at a door. “This is all about him, and he has the final say.” Jane rolled her eyes and started toward the door. “Well, I’ll go talk to my parents right away while I leave you guys to it,” she said, smirking like she’d just left us in charge of the nuclear codes. Victor and I exchanged a look. That smirk said she was about to make our lives ten times more dramatic. We walked to the door, and I raised my hand for the first knock. Then the second. Then the third. Nothing. Victor frowned. “Maybe he’s asleep?” I shook my head. “No. That was crying. And humans don’t fake that very well.”

    🖱️Victor🖱️“Exactly,” Sammy said, and I swear something shifted in the room when he did.He stood there like he had just declared war on destiny and meant it. No shaking voice. No second guessing. Just straight confidence. I watched him closely and I won’t even lie, he has grown a massive backbone. Not the reckless kind. The calculated kind. The kind that makes people follow you without realizing they just signed up for a revolution.For a second I was tempted to grab his face and kiss him just because of that. Not even in a soft way. In a proud way. In a that’s my king kind of way.Instead, I stepped closer to him.“This is a great plan,” I said honestly. “I won’t even pretend it’s not bold.”Jane raised a brow slightly like she was waiting for the but.And there was a but.“But Sammy,” I continued, lowering my voice slightly, “if we’re going to do this, we can’t half step it. We don’t just announce our bond and hope for applause. We remove every single member of our fathers’ cabin
