Five Alphas, One Destiny A curse?
ARIA.THE blinding light was back.I closed my eyes and crossed my hand over my face to protect myself from being scorched under it. My hands trembled and my body shook.I looked around, but I was no longer in the ruin.This time, I was back in my old house. My adopted mother stood at the doorway, her arms wide open to receive me. I rushed to her, ready to engulf her in a hug.But the glow came, standing between us. I tried to evade it but it only burned brighter and scarier."Mother!" I yelled, even as I stood on my toes to catch a glimpse of her."Aria!" She shouted back. I rushed around the glow, but it seemed to follow me everywhere."Be careful." The familiar voice from the glow, the same one that spoke to me in that ruin when it first appeared, warned."Aria!" My mother's voice came the moment the glow finished warning me. It was no longer one of joy and expectation. It was filled with horror.Panic surged through me as I tried to get a glimpse, but each attempt kept being foi
Five Alphas, One Destiny The aftermath of the battle.
ARIA’S POVThe air was thick with smoke and the lingering scent of blood. The night had been a storm, the rogues pushed back, but their presence still haunted the edges of the forest. I stood at the edge of the training yard, chest heaving, hair matted with sweat, hands trembling from the energy I had unleashed. My stomach still knotted in fear, though the danger had passed. I did not move. I could not move.The pull was still there, faint but insistent, tugging at the corners of my mind. It was a weight I could not shake, a voice that whispered in a language I almost recognized, urging me to step forward, to embrace it, to accept it. I tried to fight it, tried to tell myself that I was safe now, that the battle had ended, but the sensation only grew stronger, resonating in my chest and limbs.I did not notice Darius approach at first. He was silent, as always, his footsteps precise, measured. His eyes were sharp, scanning me, assessing the aftermath of the fight, and perhaps the afte
Five Alphas, One Destiny I can't stay.
ARIA’S POVThe voices behind me had grown sharp, cutting into the tension in the room like knives. I could feel the energy vibrating off both Darius and Evren, each man bristling, unyielding, their anger and frustration tangling together in a battle that had nothing to do with me but everything to do with my presence. I could not take it anymore. I rose slowly, every muscle in my body tense, but determined.“I cannot stay here,” I whispered to myself, though the words carried louder than intended. The fight between them continued, echoing off the walls, but I no longer heard it. I felt only the pull of need, of space, of a place where I could just breathe without feeling like a pawn in their war.I walked toward the door, moving quietly, carefully, though every step felt deliberate, like a rebellion against the weight pressing down on me. I did not glance back. I could not. Their shouting faded behind me, replaced by the faint hum of the mansion settling around me. Even in the quiet,
Five Alphas, One Destiny The search.
ARIA’S POVMorning light seeped through the curtains, soft and pale, brushing against my skin like a reminder that the night had passed. I stirred, my body heavy and stiff from restless sleep, but the memory of last night did not fade. The throne room, the masked man, and his claim over my age and power lingered in my mind like a shadow that refused to release me. I shivered, wrapping my arms around myself as the cold from the night clung to my bones.Even as I sat up, I felt it again. The pull. A subtle tug at the back of my mind at first, almost imperceptible, but it strengthened with every heartbeat. It was insistent and demanding, and a part of me wanted to ignore it. Another part, a stronger part, urged me to follow it, to seek out whatever was calling.I tried to steady myself, taking a deep breath. The weight of fear pressed against me, heavy and suffocating. The dream from the night before had left me shaken. I could still see his masked face, hear the jagged words of possessi
Five Alphas, One Destiny You can't hide from me.
ARIA’S POVSleep did not come easily that night. I lay on the edge of my bed, my limbs heavy with exhaustion, yet my mind refused to quiet. The events of the day—the pull I had felt, the argument between the brothers, the mobilization of the warriors—played over and over in my head. My eyelids drooped, my body begging for rest, but the moment my consciousness drifted, a different world opened before me.It started dark. I was standing in a vast room, taller than anything I had ever seen, filled with shadows that seemed to cling to the walls and floor like living things. A cold weight pressed against my chest, making it hard to breathe. In front of me was a throne, golden yet tainted with something unholy, gleaming in the faint light. Sitting on it was a figure wearing a mask that reflected nothing of the world around it, only darkness.I could not see the man’s face, yet I felt him. The air itself seemed to bend toward him, heavy and suffocating. Then, a voice, distorted, sliding arou
Five Alphas, One Destiny Afraid.
ARIA’S POVThe night had wrapped the mansion in a heavy silence that felt almost unnatural. I sat on the edge of my bed, shivering lightly despite the blanket wrapped around my shoulders. The events of the day still weighed heavily on me, pressing down on my chest like a physical force. I had tried to rest, tried to clear my mind of the chaos, but something inside me refused to settle.A strange sensation began to tug at me, subtle at first, almost like a vibration running through the floor beneath my feet. It grew stronger, insistent, tugging at the edges of my mind as though something was calling me, pulling me across some invisible distance. My stomach tightened, and my pulse quickened. Fear gripped me suddenly, sharp and cold, as if the air around me had thickened into an unseen fog.I tried to tell myself it was just exhaustion, the lingering effects of being captured and weakened, but I knew it was not. I had felt this before, a similar pull during that dream I could not fully r
