The silence left behind felt heavier than when Ashar and Riven were standing in the room. It wasn’t tense in the way it had been before, not the snapping, teeth-bared tension of distrust and dominance. It was quieter, denser, heavy with the weight of something none of them could explain.

Kaine sat on the edge of a half-broken pillar, elbows on his knees, hands clasped. His scowl was still there, but duller now, softened at the edges. Not anger. Worry.

Lucien paced slower than usual, steps measured, hands behind his back, brow furrowed deep in thought. He looked less like a predator and more like someone desperately solving a puzzle that refused to give up the last piece.

Sethis sat cross-legged on the floor, head tilted, running a ring between his fingers, watching the energy fractures on the wall fade in and out like breathing. For once, his usual lazy smirk was gone.

Mae stayed seated where she'd been left at the edge of the raised dais. Her wrists were no longer cuffed, her hands cl

  • Claimed by the Fallen Five   Beneath the Veins of Dying Stars: Part 2

    Mae stepped forward, her chains alive, sparking violet light that spilled across the ramp like liquid fire. The champion met her advance with a shriek, the hollow void in its chest pulsing like a second sun, a darkness so deep it threatened to swallow the ship whole. Lucien stayed at her side, his white chains entwining with hers in defiance, but she felt the strain of it burning through him, threatening to pull him apart from the inside. The Forgotten swarmed around them, endless, ravenous, their clawed hands tearing through steel as though it were nothing. The ship screamed with the weight of the attack, bulkheads groaning, alarms wailing in time with Mae’s racing heart. Ashar fought at the front, his blade aflame, every swing a bright arc that seared through the horde. Flames clung to his body, his armor glowing molten in the heat of battle, but the creatures kept pressing, throwing themselves into the fire willingly just to smother it with their numbers. Riven soared overhead,

  • Claimed by the Fallen Five   Beneath the Veins of Dying Stars

    The battlefield was chaos. Mae’s scream still tore through the air, but the sound was swallowed by the roar of the Forgotten champion forcing its bulk into the ship. Kaine’s body lay motionless on the floor, his golden light already fading into the shadows that surged around them.Lucien’s chains snapped outward, striking like lightning, wrapping around the massive creature’s limbs. Sparks flew where they connected, the clash of divine and void energy rattling the ship itself. Ashar dove at its chest, blade blazing like a falling star, cutting deep but not enough to stop its advance.“Mae!” Riven’s voice cut through, his wings sweeping her out of the path of a lunging Forgotten. He landed hard beside her, feathers shredded, his body shaking with exhaustion. “You cannot break now. Do you hear me? You cannot!”Mae’s vision blurred with tears, with fire, with the chains burning hotter beneath her skin. Every nerve screamed at her to collapse, to grieve, to stop, but the war gave her no m

  • Claimed by the Fallen Five   Where Nightmares Begin

    The ship shook violently, not from the engines but from the world itself breaking open. Mae’s skin lit with violet chains beneath the surface, sparking and pulsing against her will. Her breath caught. The vision that had haunted her, the one where she stood on a battlefield of fire and glass, tearing the world apart, felt like it was crawling out of her head and into reality.Outside, the horizon split. The earth bled light, jagged wounds opening as towering shadows clawed their way free. The Forgotten were waking.“Shields up, now!” Sethis shouted, his voice shaking in a way Mae had never heard. Lucien’s chains burned white-hot along his arms as he stared out the viewport. Ashar’s knuckles whitened around his blade. Even Riven, usually unshakable, had his wings half-flared, feathers twitching with unease.Then the ship lurched, hard, as something slammed into the ramp. A body rolled inside, limp and bleeding, leaving a smear of red across the metal. Mae’s heart stopped. “Kaine!” she

  • Claimed by the Fallen Five   The Weight of His World

    The corridors of Sethis’s world were unlike anything Mae had ever seen. The walls shimmered faintly, alive with threads of starlight that pulsed like veins, carrying whispers of energy through the stone. When they returned to the others, Mae lingered close to Lucien but her thoughts kept pulling elsewhere. There was something in the way Sethis had looked at her earlier, an unspoken weight behind his easy smirk.When she finally approached him, he was waiting as though he had known she would come. Without a word, he motioned for her to follow. The path curved upward into a long arching hall lined with luminous glyphs. Mae felt the air grow heavier the deeper they walked, as if the very atmosphere bore the memory of what this world had endured.“This place was not always like this,” Sethis said quietly. His usual teasing edge was gone, replaced by something measured and solemn. “Before the war, before the void, we thrived. My people believed we were untouchable. But power always comes wi

  • Claimed by the Fallen Five   Threads of the Eternal

    The three of them stood in silence, the weight of Sethis’s question still lingering in the air. Mae’s heart thudded in her chest, uncertain whether it was from the sudden shift in the conversation or from Lucien’s nearness. Sethis’s gaze lingered on her for a moment longer, unreadable, then a sly smile tugged at his lips. He winked at her, a flicker of mischief in his eyes that did not quite hide the ache behind it, and with a casual turn he walked away, leaving them in the quiet that suddenly felt too heavy.Mae exhaled slowly, only then realizing how tightly she had been holding her breath. Her eyes darted towards Lucien, but he did not move at first. He simply watched her, his silence more potent than words. She felt his presence coil around her like smoke, dark and magnetic, impossible to escape.When he finally stepped closer, Mae’s body reacted before her mind did, heat rushing through her veins at the way his gaze locked on hers. His hand lifted, slowly and deliberately, brushin

  • Claimed by the Fallen Five   A Dangerous Yes

    The ship was restless with preparation, voices low but sharp as the Fallen planned their next steps. Mae barely heard them. Her mind was fixed on something else, something that gnawed at the edges of her thoughts and refused to loosen its grip.The chains.Every time she closed her eyes, she saw them, bright violet threads lacing beneath her skin, answering to Lucien’s like a reflection in water. The others didn’t see it, not fully, not the way he did. And she knew, somehow, that whatever this was, it belonged to the two of them alone.So when the moment came, when the others were distracted, Mae touched Lucien’s arm and nodded toward the corridor. He didn’t question, didn’t speak, just followed her into the silence of the ship’s lower deck.It was dark there, lit only by the hum of the vessel’s core, shadows wrapping around them like a cloak. Mae turned to him, her heartbeat thundering in her chest.“I need to understand it,” she said, her voice low, urgent. “The chains. My power. Wh
