Author: Zesty Zing
'Clara, a killer? It couldn't be true. It couldn't possibly be true. I have to see for myself.'

The same sense of unease rose in Oscar once again. He had long suspected that the small dragon had deep ties to the Chamberlains, and the news had confirmed exactly what he had feared.

    A crowd poured into the room all at once. They all wore matching uniforms, a style Elara had never seen before. But when she saw the law enforcement officers standing nearby, guiding them forward, she immediately realized these were people she could not afford to cross.Without protest, she put her hands behind her head. She had not even crouched down yet.Elara watched the group rush toward her, their faces guarded and alert, as they isolated her from everyone else.She still had no idea what was happening."You've got the wrong person, haven't you? I'm the victim here! This company is a scam. They trick people into taking out loans just to work here—"Before she could finish, they forced her to the ground, pulled a hood over her head, and snapped handcuffs around her wrists.Stanley walked into the company with a cold expression. "What is going on here?""A misunderstanding! It's all just a misunderstanding..."The company's boss made one last attempt to protest, but Stanley

    "They actually told me I wasn't qualified? When I asked why, they just stammered and couldn't give me a real reason! I came here today to quit."The young woman paused for a moment."Did you take out a teaching loan too? Damn it, I've already started paying it back, and they still won't let me start working here! I came here today to settle the score. If they don't cancel my loan, I'm calling the police."With that, she stormed toward the front desk.Before long, raised voices echoed from that direction. Elara started to see what was happening, but then she noticed the examiners waving her over.She hurried into the testing room. This time, however, all her earlier confidence had vanished, and her heart began to pound.If she failed the assessment, she would not get hired. If she did not get hired, she would not earn a paycheck. She still had a loan to repay. She could not end up like that girl. She could not afford to fail. Her sisters could never repay that loan for her, and th

    Elara was already a teacher, so she picked things up quickly. She did not need her trainer to explain how to teach students. If anything, she felt the trainer's own teaching skills fell a little short.Solareon had developed rapidly over the past few decades, especially in education. New teaching methods and ideas emerged constantly, and teachers and students were often the first to adopt them.Young and quick to learn, Elara taught at Silverton High, one of the city's top schools. No one could question her abilities. Even so, this trainer still seemed a step behind the times.Whenever Elara drew her own conclusions or mentioned a more recent approach, the trainer often had no idea what she was talking about.The realization surprised Elara, but she kept it from showing. At her current pace, the training would not take long. She would be on the job in no time.After the trainer finished explaining the company's workflow, Elara felt completely confident. "I don't need any more job

    Diana counted the rent money the landlady had returned, her spirits sinking. "Only a little over 1,000 dollars altogether! Every place out there wants one month's deposit and three months' rent up front. There's no way we can afford that. I think we should just find a place that rents by the day for now.""Didn't Elara find a job? It pays 2,000 dollars a month. We just have to make it through this first month."At the mention of her new job, Elara brightened. "That's right, sisters! This is only a temporary setback. That job of mine pays really well!"Taking care of all of you won't be a problem. Once we've all found jobs, we'll be able to live anywhere we want in Silverton."The others laughed.When they had first left the family, they had all shared the same dreams. It had felt like graduating from school for the first time, filled with boundless passion and convinced they were the protagonists of their own stories.They had been determined to build something extraordinary, lea

    Inside the Chamberlain villa, in Clara's room, Amara had set up an altar. A layer of gray ash covered its surface, and the impressions left behind revealed that the ash was all that remained of the Dracobsidian Tokens.She had used the Dracobsidian Tokens as a sacrificial offering.At first, everything had gone according to plan. Clara's mental state was changing exactly as intended. Then Freya's presence flickered into existence for only an instant before disappearing again.The fact that her presence had appeared meant the ritual had succeeded. So why had it vanished? Could something nearby have drawn her away?Amara could not make sense of it. The same thing had happened with Freya, and now it had happened again with Clara. The rituals had clearly worked, yet she could not reach either of them."Damn it all!" A flicker of irritation crossed Amara's normally placid face. "Third time's the charm. This is the last one. If it fails again, I will drag her here myself and perform the

    True, Clara's connection to Oscar stirred a deeper anger. Even so, he would have acted the same for anyone else.Oscar gave them a detached glance before making his decision. "It looks like something has invaded Clara's body. If that's true, these women are responsible. Lock them up and throw away the key."Stanley took the hint without hesitation and swiftly sealed the women's fate. "Yes. Everything will be done as you say, Mr. Stone."Inside his sleeve, Freya was overjoyed. She pressed her tiny claws together again and again in silent gratitude toward Oscar.After the women had been taken away, Stanley looked at Oscar with a hesitant expression. "Mr. Stone, there's something I'm not sure I should bring up.""Go ahead.""You said something invaded Clara's body...

A terrifying possibility had just occurred to her.If
