Final 'Rest'

Weeks passed like storm winds, fast, loud, and full of change. The once-untouched fields surrounding Ashar’s rebuilt sanctuary now bore the marks of battles fought in preparation. Craters scorched the earth. Ancient stone monoliths Mae had conjured from fractured memory stood like training dummies, each of them broken, shattered, or melted down from her refining strength. Mae stood in the center of the stone circle now, chest rising steadily, shoulders squared. Her arms glowed faintly, not with heat, but power. The kind that no longer frightened her. Not like before.

“She’s not just strong,” Sethis said from the outer edge, “she’s, divine.” Lucien hummed, crossing his arms. “And still not even at her full potential.” The sphere hovered silently nearby, its shifting light steady for the first time in days. A soft hum escaped it, its version of satisfaction. Riven, leaning against a stone column, nodded toward it. “She’s close. That damn thing says she’s almost there. One final push and

  • Claimed by the Fallen Five   The Weight of a New Us

    The planet beneath them felt alive, the air heavy with the scent of something ancient, something that had been waiting. Mae stepped off the ship first, her boots crunching against the soft, foreign soil. Her heart was still racing from the journey, but there was something else, something simmering just beneath the surface.Lucien followed behind her, his footsteps silent, but there was an undeniable tension between them now. The planet stretched out before them, the landscape foreign and alien, but Mae couldn’t shake the feeling that everything had changed.It wasn’t just the world around her. It was him.The way his presence seemed to wrap around her, the weight of his gaze always lingering just out of reach. Mae hadn’t realized how much it affected her until now, how much she needed to close that gap between them, to feel the distance shrink.“Are we just going to stand here?” Mae asked, her voice louder than she meant as she turned back toward him. Her breath uneven, betraying the

  • Claimed by the Fallen Five   Whispers Before the Storm

    The hum of the ship was a constant beneath Mae’s feet, a soft vibration that seemed to seep into her bones as they ascended into the cold expanse of space. The stars outside twinkled like distant memories, and for a moment, she allowed herself to be lost in their beauty, the same beauty that had once filled her with wonder. Now, it was just another reminder of how far she had fallen, how much had changed.She could feel the distance between herself and the others, the silence in the air thickening as they left the planet behind. Lucien, Riven, Ashar, and Sethis were all somewhere in the ship, preparing for what was to come. But Mae remained on the edge, a quiet observer, struggling to push past the ache in her chest.She wanted to believe the promises they had made. She wanted to believe that they would find Kaine, that they would get the babies back. But the uncertainty gnawed at her, making it hard to trust even the calm voices of those around her.A quiet knock on the door pulled M

  • Claimed by the Fallen Five   Shadows of the Coming War

    The silence in the room was unbearable, a suffocating weight that pressed against every heart. Mae could still feel the ghost of the void’s presence, a lingering cold that gnawed at the edges of her mind. The others stood scattered around her, their expressions a mix of fear, disbelief, and rage, but it was Lucien who drew her gaze.He stood a few feet away, still as stone, his eyes locked on nothing. A single tear slipped down his cheek, catching in the low light before disappearing into the shadow that clung to him. It was not weakness that made him cry, Mae realized, but something deeper, something far older than any of them could comprehend.The air around them shifted, a tremor running through the floor, subtle yet unmistakable. The universe itself seemed to lean in, holding its breath. Mae’s pulse quickened. She felt the change before she could name it, an instinct screaming that nothing would ever be the same again.Riven’s wings twitched, feathers shivering as if they too sens

  • Claimed by the Fallen Five   When Gods Fall

    Mae woke with a sharp inhale, her chest rising unevenly as if her lungs had forgotten how to fill with air. The room seemed to pulse around her, a dizzying blur of faces and sounds as her eyes slowly focused. Her body felt heavy, distant, as though she were floating outside of herself. The chill of the room pressed against her skin, but something else, something dark and unfamiliar, lingered in the air.Around her, the men were in motion. Riven stepped forward first, his hand hovering uncertainly over her as if unsure whether to touch her or keep his distance. Kaine was still sitting beside her, his eyes wide, mouth open in shock as he watched her struggle to breathe. Ashar paced restlessly, his hand tightening on the hilt of his sword as he muttered to himself. Sethis had his back to the group, kneeling by the door, still looking for a way out, though Mae could see the tension in his posture.But through it all, Lucien remained still. He didn’t move. He didn’t speak. He simply stared

  • Claimed by the Fallen Five   The Price of Creation

    Mae lay motionless on the bed, her skin damp and ghostly pale. Her breaths came shallow and quick, like her body was forgetting how to breathe altogether. Her arms trembled, useless at her sides, while the blood beneath her soaked through the sheets, hot and unrelenting. The room had fallen into a kind of hushed frenzy around her, controlled chaos laced with fear. Lucien knelt beside her, pressing into her abdomen with gloved hands, his jaw clenched, his focus surgical. “You’re okay,” he said, more to himself than to her. “Stay with me.”Kaine had both babies swaddled against his chest, rocking gently on the floor, his back against the wall. He looked overwhelmed but determined, cradling life as death tried to pull one of them under. Ashar moved like a storm across the room, grabbing towels, soaked linens, anything he could get his hands on. Riven hovered behind Lucien, tense, waiting, his hands clenched at his sides. Sethis had vanished moments ago, chasing down whatever supplies migh

  • Claimed by the Fallen Five   Tension in the Air

    The room was heavy with silence as the group regrouped. The tension from the battle still clung to the air, thick with uncertainty. The men had started formulating a plan for their next move, but Mae couldn’t focus on the details. The only thing on her mind was the weight of the moment that had almost been. She had felt it, the pull. Not just the force of her power, but the magnetic, undeniable connection between her and Lucien. The moments they had shared, the almost kiss, the heat that still simmered between them, it was more than just a fleeting desire. It was something darker, something deeper.As the others scattered to prepare, Ashar stepped toward Mae, his expression intense, unreadable. He didn’t speak at first, his gaze flicking to Lucien in the corner, then back to her. His jaw tightened as he closed the distance between them. “Mae,” his voice was low, his tone not quite harsh, but there was something underlying it, something unspoken. “We need to talk." Mae’s heart skipped
