Elixir: Fated To The Three Alpha Chapter 36: The Ghost of Blood and Ash
Elixir's POVLucian’s fingers shook on the handle of his sword. But he forced himself to stay calm. The moment felt heavy, like a big rock pressing on his chest. It was suffocating. Out of nowhere, his past came back, smirking at him. Its eyes looked like burning gold.You can't be here, Lucian cried out, his voice barely a whisper.The man stepped forward, slow and steady. He moved like someone who had never felt fear. And yet, here I am.Elixir’s breath caught in her throat as she took in the stranger. She didn't know him, but Lucian did. He stood stiff, his face pale in the dim torchlight.Lucian, she said softly, feeling nervous. Who is he?Lucian didn’t respond. His throat felt tight. Memories flashed in his mind, sharp and painful. He pictured blood on the stone. Screams mixing with the night air. A shadow at the end of a long hall, whispering his name.The man tilted his head, amusement shining in his golden eyes. Still quiet, just like before. His voice was smooth, almost swee

Elixir's POVElixir was breathing fast. Her heart raced as she felt the air around her. It was thick and heavy, as if something was watching her. In front of her stood a golden throne. It shined brightly even in the dim light of the torches flickering around the room. The throne seemed to call to her. Not in words. Not in whispers. But in a way that pulled at her inner self.She moved forward cautiously. Her boots barely made a sound on the shiny black stone floor. As soon as her fingers touched the arm of the throne, flames burst to life on the walls. A strange orange glow filled the room.Then she saw her.Sitting on the throne was someone who looked just like her. But it wasn’t a reflection. No, it was another Elixir.This doppelganger looked similar, but there was something off about her. She sat still and seemed to command the space around her. Her eyes were a bright gold that almost looked like they were burning. A smug smile played on her lips, as if she’d been waiting for this

Elixir's POVElixir became cold. She couldn’t take her eyes off the body that looked just like her. It sat on the throne, still as could be. Her lips were slightly parted. Her eyes were closed. Elixir thought for a moment that she was just asleep. But deep down, she knew that wasn’t true. What she was looking at was death.A twisting feeling settled in her stomach. It was a fear that gripped her heart, almost painfully. It felt so real. The details of that body were perfect. The curve of her jaw was just right. The scar on her wrist from an old training mishap was visible. Even the little strands of hair falling over her forehead looked familiar.But she was alive. How was this possible?This had to be some kind of trick. A horrible prank, maybe.Suddenly, a strong wind howled through the throne room. It carried with it a smell that reminded her of something burnt and decayed. The torches flickered, casting eerie shadows on the walls.Out of the darkness, a voice broke through. It wa

Elixir's PovElixir’s heart raced as Lucian's question echoed in the still air of the temple. What did you see? he asked, his voice tense.Images flashed in her mind. Her twin's hand gripped her tightly, almost as if he was trying to pull something dark from inside her. She could hear her voice, but it felt wrong, distorted. It was like a bad dream that wouldn't fade away. She took a deep breath, trying to shake off the fear. Now was not the time to share those thoughts.Lucian’s silver eyes bored into her. He studied her face as if trying to read her thoughts. “Elixir,” he said sharply. “What. Did. You. See?” She took too long to respond, and she could feel his impatience grow. He grabbed her wrist. His touch felt solid and reassuring. But it also held a strength that demanded honesty. “I need the truth.” Elixir curled her fingers into tight fists. She could share what she saw. But the words were heavy. They felt dangerous like they would cut through this fragile moment.So, she

Elixir’s POV Entry One – The Beginning of the EndIf I had known that opening my eyes would lead to a life of pain, I wouldn’t have taken my first breath.I was born into a world that already had its plans for me. Before I could walk, talk, or even understand my name, my story was written.Fate is not kind. It doesn’t ask. It doesn’t care. It just takes.And I have spent my whole life trying to escape it.They call me Elixir. A name tied to dark prophecies and death. A name that holds fear for what I might become. It’s a name cursed long before I got it.My mother never told me the truth about my birth.She looked at me with love, but also sadness. It was as if every moment together was borrowed time. I still remember how her hands shook when she touched my face. Her voice trembled when she whispered my name.“Elixir.”Like a prayer. Like a warning.She knew.She knew that one day they would come for me.And they did.I was ten the first time I felt the shadows.It was dusk, the sky

Entry Two – The Twin That Haunts MeShe left me with silence. Not the kind that settles after a long conversation, nor the quiet comfort of solitude. This was so different, an absence, a void, a space where reality had twisted and left me standing at the edge of an unimaginary scene, I did not understand. For days, I told myself she had been a trick of the light, a strange illusion born from exhaustion or fear. But the moment I closed my eyes, she was always there. Watching and Waiting. "You will understand soon enough," she said. But within me I didn't want to understand. I wanted to forget. Yet, fate does not grant mercy. On the night of my thirteenth birthday, I saw her again. The village gathered under the stars, their laughter very bright and warm, the scent of roasted meat and honey cakes filling the air. Children ran barefoot through the fields, their voices ringing with joy, and for a moment, I allowed myself to believe I was like them. Normal and Safe. Then,

Entry Three: The Men Who Bleed for MeI stumbled back, my breath seizing in my throat as the weight of the situation pressed down on me. The flame sparkled, throwing extensive shadows on the walls, but no amount of darkness could cover up what I saw. She stood there, scanning my posture and expression except for her smile. It was too knowing, too satisfied as if she had won a battle I didn’t even know I was fighting. I didn’t blink. Neither did she. The silence between us stretched, thick with invisibles, words unspoken, and the ancient. My hands clenched into fists, my nails digging into my palms as I forced myself to speak. "Who are you?" My voice came out hoarse, barely a wave. "You already know," she answered, lifting her head. "You’ve always known who I am." I shook my head. "You’re lying."Her smile widened. "Am I, she asked?" The mirror rippled as if made of water, distorting her form and warping her features. The room grew colder, and the air thinned around me. "You s

Entry Four: The Masked Man and His Lies I met him in the ruins of a forgotten world. The sky was dull gray, thick with the scent of ash and something ancient. The ground beneath me felt wrong, like I was standing on the bones of something that had once lived and still remembered. Every step I took felt like an intrusion; the earth itself wanted me gone. And then he appeared, A man in a mask, standing at the edge of the ruins, watching me as if he had been waiting forever. He did not move like other men. His presence was unsettling, quiet but heavy, like a shadow stretching where no light had touched. He wore dark robes, torn at the edges, and a mask that hid everything except his eyes. They were hollow, empty yet burning with a knowing I didn’t understand. "You came," he said. His voice was calm and unreadable as if my arrival had been inevitable. My fist tightened. "I don’t even know who you are."His head slightly lifted. "You do." I shook my head. "No, I don't." "You will," h

Elixir: Fated To The Three Alpha Chapter 55: The Haunting of Blood and Shadow
Elixir’s POVThe torches flickered and then went out completely, leaving the courty⁶in ⁸⁸⁹in total darkness. I felt a heavy lump in my throat as everything faded away, the last image stuck in my mind—my father's twisted smile, his empty eyes, and that unnatural chill that seemed to wrap around him.I couldn’t budge. It felt like my body was made of stone, and my heart was racing in my chest. My mind screamed that this wasn’t real, that it couldn’t be true. But deep down, where the dark thoughts lingered, I knew better.I had brought him back.Lucian was the first to react, moving in front of me, his growl low and dangerous. “That’s not him.” His voice was strained like he was pushing the words out through clenched teeth. “Whatever that is, it’s just using his face.”Soren quickly drew his blade, the moonlight glinting off it. “How is this even happening?” His voice was louder than a whisper, but the disbelief hung heavy in the air.Ewen stepped forward, his sharp gaze fixed on the fig
Elixir: Fated To The Three Alpha Chapter 54: Embracing the Abyss
Elixir’s POVDarkness.It curled around me like a living thing, tendrils wrapping around my limbs, pressing against my skin like ice and fire woven together. It wasn’t just an absence of light—it was something deeper. Something ancient. It called to me, whispering my name with a voice that wasn’t mine, yet I knew it. Knew it like I knew my own breath.Victor’s voice cut through the void, low and firm. “Do not fight it, Elixir.”Lucian’s grip on my wrist tightened. “Don’t listen to him.”I looked between them. Lucian, wild-eyed and protective, his jaw clenched so tightly I thought it might shatter. Victor, calm but unyielding, watching me like he already knew what I would do.And then there was me.I had spent my whole life running from what I didn’t understand. From the curse in my blood. From the power waiting beneath my skin. But now? I couldn’t run anymore. The shadows had found me. The only choice left was whether I controlled them or let them consume me.My breath shook. “Tell me
Elixir: Fated To The Three Alpha Chapter 53: Shadows and Blood
Elixir’s POVFrigid air hit me hard as I sat up, my whole body shaking from the lingering effects of the darkness. Lucian’s hands were solid on my shoulders, keeping me from totally losing it, and I could feel his heart pounding just as fast as mine.“It’s gone,” Soren said, but there wasn’t a hint of relief in his voice, just a boatload of worry.Ewen cleaned his sword, his eyes darting around. “No body, no blood.” He ground his teeth. “That wasn’t a normal spirit.”I gulped. “That wasn’t a spirit at all…”The room went silent, heavy like a wet blanket. The truth hung in the air. He-or whatever it was pretending to be him—was connected to me. I could feel it that way the shadows stuck to me, whispering things only I could hear. It was like some sick cosmic joke.Lucian squeezed my shoulders. “We gonna go. Now.”Soren nodded. “Can’t fight what we don’t get.”Ewen paused, then gave in. “Okay.”I took a wobbly breath and forced myself to move. Every step away from that creepy place felt
Elixir: Fated To The Three Alpha Chapter 52: Shadows That Whisper My Name
Elixir's POVIt was dark all around me - not just dark, but like being stuck in thick mud. Each breath felt like trying to suck air through a straw, and my lungs were screaming. The darkness felt alive, sucking the air right out of me.This can't be real. Please, no.But then I saw it. Standing right there in front of me was a figure with my dad's face. It was him, no question.Think you could just get rid of me by dying, huh? The voice was soft, but it cut like ice, wrapping around me like smoke.I couldn't stop shaking. My heart was going crazy, banging against my ribs. You're not him, I choked out, my voice shaky. He's gone.His face twisted into a slow, mean smile, and his eyes... they were totally empty. The kind, warm light that always showed on his face was nowhere to be found. Really? he whispered, taking a step closer. Or are you just now finding out the truth?I stumbled back, every part of me screaming to run. But my feet were stuck, frozen in place. The air felt heavy, and
Elixir: Fated To The Three Alpha Chapter 51: The Ghost of My Past
Elixir’s POVThe instant I walked into the war room, the heavy quiet hit me, like the air before a thunderstorm. The fire in the fireplace was jumping, casting freaky shadows on the stone walls. Lucian, Soren, and Ewen were standing around the table, looking super serious. Maps and scrolls were all over the place, but they weren't looking at them. They were staring at me.I swallowed hard. What's up?Lucian's jaw tightened. His dark eyes locked on mine, giving me the chills. Another attack happened. Not by those rogue guys this time. By something else.My stomach did a flip. Something else?Ewen crossed his arms, looking grim. Wraiths. More of them than before. And this time, they didn't just attack— He let out a sharp breath. They left a message.Soren slid a piece of parchment across the table to me. My hands were shaking as I picked it up. I gasped when I read the messy, scrawled words:Give back what you took, or we'll take her instead.My blood turned to ice. What was taken? I as
Elixir: Fated To The Three Alpha Chapter 50: The Choice That Can't Be Changed
Elixir's POVEverything around me shakes crazily. Light and dark twist together, fighting each other. The air is heavy with so much power that I can feel it pushing on my skin and getting into my bones.Soren is next to me, not backing down, every muscle tense. The gold figures stand there, their empty eyes staring at me like they're waiting for something.I grab my chest, breathing hard. The power under my skin feels alive. It squirms; it needs something.You have to pick, the woman who looks just like me whispers.My head became heavier. I know that the second I walk toward her, toward that gold place, there's no turning back. I'll become something scary or maybe unpredictable. Something not connected to the world I fought so hard for anymore.But if I stay… and I fight… I don't even know if I can make it through this. A scream cuts through the air. Soren jumps, quickly turning his head toward the sound. My stomach dropped.That voice, I know that voice.Lucian.The air shifts al
Elixir: Fated To The Three Alpha Chapter 49: The Descent Into Darkness
Elixir’s ViewWe're falling, It feels like it's never going to end, like the void swallowed has us whole. Everything just poof disappeared. The shiny gold people, the super bright light, even the little voices from that weird world I never belonged to. Gone.I can't even scream or take a proper breath.The only thing keeping me together is Soren holding onto me like crazy. His fingers are digging into my wrist, and he’s squeezing so hard. I can feel his arm shaking like he’s putting every ounce of strength into keeping me from falling into this dark pit.But it's probably not even enough.This dark pull is way stronger than I thought. For a split second, my heart drops because his grip goes a little loose.Oh no.I freak out and grab his arm with my free hand, digging my nails into his skin.Hold on! He manages to yell, but the wind is so loud I can barely hear him.I feel myself losing it.This unseen thing is dragging me down with no mercy.If I let go now, I'm never coming back.I
Elixir: Fated To The Three Alpha Chapter 48: The Shadow Between Us
Elixir’s POVThe area between the gold statues and Soren feels like a tense standoff—quiet but about to blow. You could cut the tension with a knife.My heart's hammering in my chest like crazy, warning me. I try to move, to get away from whatever's holding me here, but I can't. The gold woman—the one who looks just like me—is staring at me blankly.You don't get it yet, she says, her voice smooth. But you will.I feel a weird tingle under my skin when she says that, like I should know her. But I don't. And I don't want to.I don't belong here.Soren takes another step, and the darkness around him looks like armor. His face is set, and you can't read what he's thinking, but I can feel him. He's ticked off but determined.I said, let her go, he says, his voice sharp.The gold figures don't move, and their presence just crowds the space, makes it hard to breathe. They aren't scared of him. But they should be.A low hum vibrates through the place, making my skin crawl. It's not a languag
Elixir: Fated To The Three Alpha Chapter 47: Between Two Worlds
Elixir’s POVThe second my foot touched that bright ground, everything flipped. I felt this jolt of something old shoot right through me, something that felt like it shouldn't even exist. It was just raw force. No holding back. It didn't just hang around inside me; it took over, like this thing that had been waiting for me to come back finally had what it wanted.I tried to catch my breath, but the air was thick with voices. They weren't far off anymore; they were right there, all around me, speaking some language I couldn't make out. And yet, somehow, I knew what they were saying.Welcome home.My body felt like it weighed nothing, but at the same time, I felt this pressure, like a thousand lives were pushing in on me. Then came this wave of images, none of them mine. They flashed by so fast I could hardly make them out.I saw this seat made out of bone, empty.There was this battle, all fire and shadow. A whole place in trouble, begging for someone to save it.And a lady who never
