Eclipse Academy Never Guaranteed…
Xavier’s POV I gripped the balcony railing until my knuckles turned white. I hadn’t slept. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw the curse winding beneath Angela’s skin, spreading farther than it had any right to in a single day. I could still hear her voice. ‘The pain’s getting worse.’ She’d tried to say it like it wasn’t important. Like admitting it had hurt her more than the pain itself. The balcony door slid open behind me. “You’ve been out here a while.” I didn’t have to turn around to know it was Silas. “I wasn’t tired,” I said simply. “That’s a lie,” He stepped beside me, resting his forearms on the stone railing as he looked out across the academy grounds. For a few moments, neither of us spoke. There wasn’t much left to say. We’d both seen the marks. We’d both watched them spread. Neither of us had slept much because of it. Silas finally exhaled. “I checked on her before I came out.” I looked over. “Still asleep?” He nodded his head once. “She didn’t even move.” “Good.
Eclipse Academy What If…
Xavier’s POV By the time we finally made it back to my suite, the academy had gone quiet. Break had emptied most of Eclipse Academy, leaving the halls almost unnaturally still. Every now and then, distant footsteps echoed somewhere beyond the corridor before fading into silence again. Our afternoon in the library had followed us home. Journals covered my coffee table. Loose sheets of parchment filled with hurried notes were scattered across the couch and the floor. Maps, family trees, and names of forgotten kingdoms were scribbled across pages in three different handwritings. We’d spent hours chasing Aldren’s trail, only to discover every answer pointed toward another question. Angela hadn’t slowed down once. She was sitting cross-legged against the headboard of my bed with another journal resting across her lap, completely absorbed in its pages. A strand of blonde hair had slipped loose, falling across one side of her face, and every few seconds she’d absentmindedly blow it away
Eclipse Academy A Trail
Angela’s POV I couldn’t move. My eyes remained fixed on the faded drawing spread across the brittle page. The winged crest. My crest. The one resting against the side of my neck. Beneath it, written in elegant, timeworn script, was a single sentence. ‘The winged crest belonged only to those born beneath the ancient curse.’ A chill ran down my spine. “Guys…” My voice barely rose above a whisper. I didn’t have to call twice. I heard chairs scrape against the wooden floor as both Xavier and Silas hurried toward me. “What is it?” Xavier asked, stopping beside me. I silently turned the book so they could see. Silas leaned closer, his eyes settling on the drawing before drifting to the sentence beneath it. “So…” he murmured. “It wasn’t just a family crest.” Xavier folded his arms. “It never was.” I carefully turned the page. Instead of another illustration, the next page was filled with tightly written notes describing forgotten kingdoms, fractured alliances, and royal bloodlines tha
Eclipse Academy We’re Too Late?
Angela’s POV I couldn’t believe what I’d just heard. For a moment, the words refused to make sense. ‘Archivist Aldren passed away years ago.’ It felt as though someone had reached into my chest and pulled every ounce of hope right out of it. We’d finally found a lead. It was our first real lead. And just like that… it was gone. Beside me, Xavier let out a slow breath while Silas lowered his gaze to the floor. Nobody spoke. What was there to say? I swallowed the lump forming in my throat and forced a small smile that didn’t reach my eyes. “I guess…” I whispered. “We were too late.” I turned, ready to leave. “Miss?” The librarian’s gentle voice stopped me before I’d taken more than two steps. I looked back over my shoulder. She offered me an apologetic smile. “I wasn’t finished.” Heat crept into my cheeks. “Oh…” She stepped around the front desk, folding her hands neatly in front of her as she approached us. “When Archivist Aldren passed away, his family donated his life’s work t
Eclipse Academy I’m Sorry…
Angela’s POV I couldn’t stop smiling. Every time I looked across the room, Xavier was sitting there. He was really here. Yesterday I’d been wishing he hadn’t missed my birthday. Today he was sitting in our suite like he’d never left at all. It felt… right. I curled my legs beneath me on the couch, leaning comfortably against him while he sipped the cup of coffee I’d handed him. The morning sunlight poured through the windows, warming the room, and for the first time in days, everything felt peaceful. “So…” I tilted my head toward him. “I still owe you a birthday treat.” He glanced down at me, one corner of his mouth lifting. “You don’t owe me anything.” “I do. I missed your birthday.” I said with certainty. “You missed it by one day.” He chuckled softly. “I think I’ll survive.” I narrowed my eyes. “That’s not the point.” Silas laughed from the other end of the couch. “I’ve already had her baking.” I looked over at him. “And?” He rested one arm across the back of the couch.
Eclipse Academy A Place To Start
Xavier’s POV I stood outside the suite door for a moment, my hand resting against the strap of my duffel bag. I hadn’t planned any of this. When I’d left my Territory yesterday, I’d only been thinking about getting away. I hadn’t cared where I stopped or how long the drive took. I’d slept for a few hours at a roadside motel, started driving again before sunrise, and before I knew it, the academy gates were in front of me. Somehow… I’d ended up exactly where I wanted to be. Home. Taking a slow breath, I lifted my hand and knocked. Footsteps hurried toward the door. The handle turned. The instant the door swung open, bright green eyes met mine. Angela froze. “Xavier?” For one moment she simply stared. Then she squealed. She threw herself at me so fast I barely had time to brace myself before catching her. A laugh escaped me as I wrapped my arms around her waist. “Easy, Princess.” “I can’t believe you’re here!” She squeezed me so tightly I wondered if she planned on letting go any
