Mysterious POV

The scent of failure clung to me like blood.

I kept my head lowered as I walked through the damp stone corridor

Each step echoing against the ancient walls.

Wolves.

Moons.

Blood.

The symbols had stood here for centuries, untouched by time, guarding secrets the modern world had long forgotten.

At the end of the corridor stood two massive black doors.

The guards pulled them open without a word.

A wave of cold air swept over me.

I entered.

The chamber was enormous, illuminated only

    Jason’s POV I had planned everything three times. The restaurant The table. The flowers. Even the damn weather. Okay, maybe I couldn't actually control the weather, but I had checked the forecast at least five times. Ralph had watched me do it and called me insane. Maybe I was. But tonight had to be perfect. Elissa had been through too much lately. Her mother was still in the hospital. Her father had disappeared and turned up drunk in another town. She started a new job while trying to keep up with school. She was exhausted, and I knew she's been trying to pretend she wasn't. I've seen it in her eyes. She carries everything like she is afraid that if she puts even one down, her entire life could fall apart. So tonight, I wanted her to put everything down. Even if it was only for a few hours. I looked at the dress hanging beside my wardrobe. It wasn't extravagant. It was simple. Elegant. Soft. The moment I saw it in the store, I thought of her. I had n

    ELISSA'S POV“Where could he possibly be?”I stared at Mr. Usman, hoping his answer would somehow change.He only shrugged before taking another sip from the bottle in his hand.“I told you, girl. I haven't seen your father today.”I nodded slowly.“Okay.”I turned around and walked away.My chest felt tight.I pulled out my phone again and dialled Dad's number.One ring.Two.Three.Then the call ended.I tried again.This time, it went straight to voicemail.“Dad, please…”I stared at the screen.Where was he?My father wasn't exactly the most responsible person in the world, but he always came home eventually.Even when he was drunk. Even when he could barely walk.He always came home. I looked at the time.5:17 p.m.My first shift started in less than two hours. I should have been excited.A new job meant money. Money meant my mother's medication. But all I could think about was my father.I hurried back home and searched the house one more time.His room.The sitting room.The ki

    ELISSA'S POVThe first thing I noticed when I entered the hospital room was silence.Not the peaceful kind.The kind that made your chest tighten because you knew something was wrong before anyone said a word.I stopped at the doorway.My mother was lying on the bed, her eyes closed, and her face pale against the white pillow.The woman who used to complain whenever I skipped breakfast looked smaller now.Fragile.Almost like the hospital was slowly swallowing her.“Mom?”Her eyelids fluttered. Then she smiled.That smile almost broke me.“Ellie.”I rushed to her side and took her hand.It was cold.“I've been calling you,” she whispered.“I know. I'm sorry.” I replied immediately.I forced a smile.“I had classes.”It was a lie.But I couldn't tell her that I'd spent the last few days trying to put my life back together after everything that happened.“The doctor said he would like to speak to you”, she said in a weak voice.Something about that statement made my heart skip a beat.

Chains hung from the ceiling, their rusty links swaying gently despite the absence of wind.At the far end sat a man upon a throne carved from black stone.His face remained hidden beneath a hood darker than the surrounding shadows.Even after all these years, no one dared look directly at him.I dropped to one knee."My Lord."Silence.The kind that suffocated.Then"You failed." He yelled.The words were fierce.I was frightened e

    Jason's POVThe sharp blast of Coach's whistle echoed through the ice rink."Again!"The team immediately reset into formation.I tightened my grip around my hockey stick and skated toward center ice My blades carving effortlessly across the smooth ice.Normally, this was where my mind felt the clearest.The rink had always been my escape.Today...I couldn't focus."Captain!" Tyler yelled as he passed the puck.I reacted a second too late.The puck slid right past my stick and crashed into the boards behind me.A few teammates exchanged confused glances.That never happened.Coach blew his whistle again."Myers!"I looked up."What the hell was that?""Sorry, Coach." I replied.He folded his arms across his chest."You've made five mistakes in ten minutes. Do you need glasses all of a sudden?"A few players laughed.“I don't Coach” I answered, wondering why he was exaggerating so much.."Again," Coach barked.The drill restarted.Ralph skated beside me, lowering his voice."You've

    Elissa's Pov I woke up to the annoying sound of my alarm. Why did my body feel so heavy? I groaned and reached over to silence the alarm before collapsing back onto my pillow. Every muscle in my body ached. Even lifting of my arm felt like a chore. "What did I do yesterday?" I muttered. I squeezed my eyes shut, hoping another five minutes of sleep would help. Instead, a strange image flashed through my mind. "What..." I frowned. Golden eyes? I rubbed my face and let out a nervous laugh. The room was exactly as I'd left it. Books were scattered across my study table. My backpack lay on the floor where I'd dropped it the day before. Everything looked normal. Too normal. Then why couldn't I remember coming home. The first thing I noticed was the pounding in my head. It felt as though someone took a hammer to my skull and refused to stop. I groaned softly, burying my face into the pillow again. The last thing I remembered was… The hospital. I visited Mom. Then I le
