I Left the Four Heirs I Grew Up With Chapter 9
Five years later, Ravenwood’s blood-dependency control program passed its final trials.By then, I was no longer the eighteen-year-old girl who had arrived with one suitcase and a sealed blood signature.I was Avery Vale, lead researcher on the project.My name appeared first on the final report.When the five-year restrictions officially ended, Ravenwood returned my phone.The moment my old number reactivated, more than two thousand messages appeared.Most of them were from Cassian, Dante, Julian and Adrian.The earliest demanded that I call them back.Later came apologies.Birthday grettings, life updates, and messages asking only if I was safe.I read a few. Then I deleted them all.At the official presentation, I stood beneath Ravenwood’s crest while representatives from vampire territories across the country listened to our results.When my name was announced as the project’s lead researcher, the entire hall rose.Among them were four faces I hadn’t seen in five years.Afterward,

Then Julian noticed a folder at the bottom of the screen.AUTOMATIC CAMERA BACKUP.He clicked it.The newest file had been uploaded two days ago.The image shook violently at first. Then my bedroom appeared.My camera must have kept recording after I set it on the shelf.On-screen, Cassian and the others stormed into my room.They watched themselves accuse me.Watched Cassian search my desk.Then Mira moved. She glanced around.No one was looking at her.Slowly, she reached into her pocket.The black pendant appeared between her fingers.Cassian stopped breathing.On-screen, Mira slipped the pendant onto the edge of my desk.Seconds later, she pointed at it.Her voice came clearly through the speakers.“There. I found it.”The door opened behind them. Mira walked in.The moment she saw the screen, she stopped.Cassian turned toward her.“You planted it.”Her face went pale.“Cassian—”“You framed Avery.”Tears filled her eyes almost instantly.“I was scared!”“Of what?”“Of losing all

The next morning, Blood Thorn Academy held its graduation ceremony.Near the end, the headmaster stepped up to the podium.“One final announcement.”The hall quieted.“Avery Vale graduated at the top of her class, with the highest scores in blood-control theory and human-world adaptation.”The headmaster paused.“She has also been selected for Ravenwood’s most prestigious research program—the highest appointment available to a graduating vampire.”His gaze swept across the graduating class.“Avery Vale is the first and only graduate from Blood Thorn Academy to receive that appointment.”Whispers swept through the hall.Cassian and the others stood near the back.Someone whispered. “I heard Ravenwood only invites a handful of candidates.”“Didn’t Avery turn them down before?”“Twice,” another student said. “She wanted to stay in Blood Thorn.”After the graduation ceremony, Cassian had barely stepped outside when three girls hurried over.They were the same girls who had cornered me the

Cassian still refused to accept that there was nothing he could do.Less than an hour later, the four of them were standing inside the Blood Registry Administration.Mira had followed them.Cassian placed my Ravenwood papers on the counter.“I need to contact Avery Vale.”The registrar glanced at the documents, then at him.“Your relationship to Ms. Vale?”Cassian hesitated.“I’m—”His jaw tightened.“We grew up together.”“Are you listed as an authorized contact?”“No.”“Then I can’t give you access to her file.”Cassian leaned forward. “I just want to send her a message. Tell her I need to speak to her.”The registrar shook her head.“I’m afraid Ms. Vale is no longer registered with Blood Thorn. We have no authority to contact her on your behalf. ”“And participants in Ravenwood’s classified program are not permitted any private contact with the Vampire world for the duration of the program.”Dante frowned.“What about letters?”“No.”“Visits?”“Only if the participant requests one.

Cassian snatched the ring off the floor.The bloodstone remained dark.His fingers tightened around the ring, but a slight tremor still ran through his hand.He knew my blood signature had been bound to the stone for years. It couldn’t just disappear.He turned the ring over in his palm, staring at the dead bloodstone.“Cassian?”Dante’s voice came from across the hall.Mira’s graduation party was supposed to start in less than an hour. Music was already playing, and the room was filled with black-and-crimson decorations.Cassian barely saw any of it.“Something’s wrong with Avery’s bloodstone.”Adrian’s stared at Cassian.“What do you mean?”Cassian opened his hand.“It went dark.”Silence.Dante stared at him for a second before laughing.“That’s impossible.”Julian was already walking over.“Bloodstones don’t just go dark.”“Exactly.”Dante frowned.“Maybe the ring’s damaged.”“It isn’t.”Cassian’s voice came out sharper than he intended.The four of them looked at the dead bloodsto

The Ravenwood car arrived exactly on time.While I loaded my suitcase into the trunk and climbed into the back seat, Cassian and the others were busy setting up Mira’s graduation party.As we pulled away from Blood Thorn, my phone buzzed.Our group chat.For years, it had been called The Five.Sometime that morning, the name had changed.NOCTURNE FIVEAdrian sent a photo.Get over here, Avery. Mira says our decorations look terrible.They had transformed one of the halls at Blood Thorn into a party venue. Black and crimson streamers hung from the ceiling, fairy lights covered the walls, and a huge HAPPY GRADUATION, MIRA banner stretched across the room.Dante replied almost immediately.Save it. She’s still mad at us. Let her sulk.A few seconds later, Julian sent another photo.A graduation cake sat in the center of the table, decorated with four black vampire wings surrounding a red crown.Adrian:She’ll come crawling back after a week in the human world.Dante:Then she can apologi
