Chapter 13

Mira's POV

I joined the throng of students moving to the courtyard. I couldn't stop thinking about Caden. What was he about to tell me before that bell rang? And why did something always come up whenever we were about to have a conversation.

At this point, it felt like the universe was trying to sabotage our chances to talking to each other.

An instructor was waiting in the courtyard. "It's time for the contest. Form a big circle. I'll call the contestants to the center."

We formed

    Chapter 14 Mira's POVThe second round began right after the first one ended. Caden and I still didn't get the chance to talk. Well, there was a chance to talk but he preferred to stand on the other side of the ring.I went into the ring again and won my next match on pure determination.My opponent was a wolf shifter who fought well, and I spent the first half getting pushed steadily backward. I found her pattern anyway. The slight drop of her right shoulder before a heavy swing. I waited, and when it came, I stepped inside it completely. I wrapped up the match soon after that.Josh came to me afterward. "You're going to give me a heart attack with these fights.""Nah, you're way too young for that. Don't worry about me. I'll be fine."I was until I was to meet Vessa in the ring. I should have been running through strategy. Mentally going through Vessa's previous matches, cataloging her weaknesses.Instead, my eyes found Caden across the ring.He was with his group now. I looked

And why did something always come up whenever we were about to have a conversation. At this point, it felt like the universe was trying to sabotage our chances to talking to each other. An instructor was waiting in the courtyard. "It's time for the contest. Form a big circle. I'll call the contestants to the center."We formed a circle and the instructor called the first name. Josh Calloway. I swallowed. I knew Josh was a good fighter, but I couldn't shake off the tension of watching him fight.Josh stepped into the ring and shifted. One moment he was standing at the edge of the circle, and the next, a Bengal tiger was there in his place.His opponent shifted too. He became a saber-toothed kangaroo that was unsettling in the way these hybrid beasts always were.The kangaroo charged first, using its powerful leaps t

    Caden's POVI sat on my bed and raised a mug of tea to my lips. Riven was in the bed opposite mine. He had one leg thrown over the bunk, flipping a knife and catching it by the handle. His brown hair had fallen into his eyes again. He hadn't pushed it back. Yesterday had been eventful. I had gotten the brightest light on the orb. Automatic Rank 1. I shook my head as I thought of the Omega girl who got Rank 7. She was just too weak. The mate mark pulsed as I thought of her. "So," Riven said suddenly, not looking up. "You spoke to her yet?""No, not yet."He stopped flipping. Looked at me. "Caden...""I know.""Come on, Caden. It has been days. The mark on your neck is really visible. You cannot keep avoiding this.""I'm not sure this is a good time to talk to her. She failed the resonance test.""Knowing you and her have something special together might help her process the grief.""I'm not sure the bond is correct. There has to be some kind of mistake. An Omega? A weak omega? It

    Mira's POVI was still enjoying my sleep when something landed on my bed. I jolted awake, heart lurching. My hand already reached for the blade I kept under my pillow. Then I saw what was on my bed. A black attire packed in a cellophane wrap.What's this?I rubbed up eyes and grabbed the package. The dorm was already alive with movements. Girls were pulling on the same black uniform from the wrapping. I saw them buttoning collars, lacing boots.The energy in the room was different from the regular morning in camp.~What's happening?~I checked my own uniform. Black jacket, fitted. Black pants. The emblem of Ironridge was on stitched the left breast.The redheaded girl in the bed closest to mine was shrugging into her jacket, her back to me. I opened my mouth to ask her what was happening.Then I closed it. I hadn't spoken to her since I came here. I had been too shy to start a conversation. And she just acted as if I didn't exist.It would hurt if I spoke to her now and she just ignor

    Mira's POVThe morning air was cold and sharp in my lungs. I walked to the training yard. Nobody looked up when I got in. Everyone here treated me like I was invisible. I started slow. Footwork only. I was letting my body remember how to move without bracing for pain at every step. My shoulder ached distantly but the pain didn't flare. My ribs pulled when I twisted too far. I was in a much better shape than two days ago.By the time Josh found me I had worked up a proper sweat."You're supposed to still be resting," he said."I've rested.""For just two days?""Yes. I didn't come to this camp to rest."He looked at me for a moment with that exasperated expression I knew well. "There's someone I want you to meet," he said. "Who?""Just follow me."Josh took me to the main hall. We walked to a tent just outside the door, to a table in a corner. A girl was seated at the table with a cup of something hot between her hands. She looked up when she saw us coming and smiled at us. I mean

  • Kiss Me Before The Sky Falls   009.

    Caden's POVThe training yard was empty, except for me and my friends. This was our style. We stayed back to practice more after everyone else had gone to their dorm. Nobody worked harder than us in the whole of Ironridge.I rolled my shoulder and advanced towards Riven. My grip tightened on the blade hilt. Across from me, Theo reset his stance, leaning slightly forward.I crossed swords with Riven, knocking down his blade in a swift move. Then I evaded Theo's advance. I twisted away from his attack and had my blade at his throat. Clean and fast.Theo exhaled. "One day I'll figure you out."Bastian laughed from the fence where he was lifting dumbbells. "You've been saying that for two years now."Cael said nothing. He was sharpening the edge of his short blade with a whetstone.Riven picked up his blade. "Let's go again."We circled one another. Riven to my right. Theo to my left.Theo charged first. I blocked his strike. Then I bent and kicked his legs. He groaned and dropped his bla
