The Truth

last update Last Updated: 2025-05-09 11:13:45

As dawn neared, Maika returned to the old mirror—the same one that had once whispered to her identity.

Now, she didn’t need to ask who she was.

She knew.

She was Aster. Human-born, raised by witches and vampires. Wife to a Lycan Alpha. Mother to a child born of three worlds.

And she would reclaim what was hers.

She need to go to the witches den.

A knock came at the chamber’s door. A messenger witch entered, bowing.

“My Queen… Maika is here. She requests counsel.”

Queen Vantessa nodded. “Bring her.”

Moments later, Maika entered, her cloak tattered from travel, her eyes haunted. She bowed deeply, then met their gazes.

“I need help,” she said. “I feel like I’m losing myself… or becoming someone else entirely.”

Salem approached her slowly, studying her. The anklet was gone. Magic pulsed beneath Maika’s skin like a current barely restrained.

“You’ve already begun,” Salem whispered.

“Begun what?” Maika asked.

“To awaken,” Vantessa said. “Come, Maika. Sit.”

As Maika settled near the mo

  • SEALED FATE   The abduction of Caveen

    The Abduction of CaveenThe moonlight barely penetrated the heavy mist cloaking the forest around Carl’s private estate. Inside the hidden sanctuary, protected by ancient Lycan wards and Vampire repellent glyphs, Caveen slept soundly in his bed, unaware that tonight would change his life forever.Caveen, a boy of four with distinguishing blue eyes and a wild mane of black hair, had always been unusual—too quiet for a Lycan pup, too curious for a vampire fledgling. His dual heritage had been a well-guarded secret, protected fiercely by Carl and the few trusted guards who knew of his existence. Only a handful in the world even knew the boy existed—and Carl intended to keep it that way.But secrets, no matter how well buried, always had a way of rising.Tonight, they came in silence.Shadowy figures crept past the perimeter ward. They moved with grace, their steps light as falling leaves—agents of the High Council, the supreme authority over supernatural order. They wore cloaks laced wit

He knelt—not out of obedience, but out of respect.“Lord Valus,” he said, voice steady, “I come not as an Alpha, but as a man. As a father.”Valus leaned back, eyes sharpening. “You’ve never knelt before, Carl. What truth weighs you down tonight?”Carl rose and met his gaze directly. “It’s time you heard everything. About me.

    The dim, ethereal light of the moon filtered through towering stained glass windows etched with arcane runes and ancestral seals. At the heart of the chamber stood a black marble table—cold, smooth, and ancient—surrounded by eleven high-backed chairs where the Council of Arcane Balance convened. A twelfth chair stood empty, cracked through its center—a relic of a long-banished member who once dabbled in forbidden arts.At the table’s center sat a glowing crystal orb, rotating slowly above an enchanted pedestal. Seated around it were representatives of each magical race: vampires, witches, Lycans, elementals, seers, and the ancient Scribes of Balance. Tension hummed like a drawn bowstring.“Bring in the boy,” rasped High Scribe Venemar, his eyes pale as snow.The heavy iron doors creaked open as two silent guardians entered, flanking a hooded figure.

  • SEALED FATE    “The Embers Within”

    Darkness stretched endlessly in the chamber where Caveen sat, strapped to a cold iron chair. The room smelled of old stone and burning herbs, laced with something far more ancient—magic. Faint runes etched into the floor pulsed with dull light, casting shadows that danced like spirits on the walls. Caveen’s wrists and ankles were bound with enchanted cuffs, not to restrain him physically—he could’ve broken those—but to bind the very essence of him, to suppress the confusion of energies swirling in his blood. He couldn’t tell how long he had been there. Time passed in odd ways. Sometimes the lights flickered and the room grew silent. Other times, the council members entered in a flurry of whispers, robes trailing behind them like smoke. They never spoke to him. They only observed, studied, prodded. They’d taken his blood. His hair. A piece of his broken necklace. He didn’t scream when the magic needles pierced his skin, but the truth was—he wanted to. Not from pain, but from fear.

    - The Past - It was already past 3 PM in Sabrah, a place ruled by the oldest and strongest witches in the world—the Carellos. Aster, with sorrowful eyes, stood in front of her mother’s casket—Lady Vienna. She was the only family Aster had, the one who loved her most, and her protector. Aster had been just a baby when Lady Vienna brought her to the coven. The family had objected to her decision to adopt a human, but she insisted and took full responsibility. Lady Vienna was a respected and powerful witch in the coven, second only to her sister, Queen Vantessa. Because of this, the elders allowed the adoption—on one condition: if Lady Vienna died, Aster would have to leave the coven. Lady Vienna’s death was somehow linked to Aster. The family blamed her, but the truth was that her mother had only been trying to save her. It happened three days after Aster’s 18th birthday. She had lost consciousness and awoke as a completely different person—speaking in an unknown language, not reco

    The grand hall of the vampire palace lay in solemn stillness, its silence broken only by the distant rustling of the wind against ancient stained glass. Lord Valus stood at the head of the long obsidian table, hands clasped behind his back, watching the horizon burn faintly gold with the rising sun. The castle, ancient and cold, seemed to shiver with anticipation. Behind him, the door creaked open. “Enter,” Valus said without turning. It was Marcus, his royal butler and the kingdom’s most brilliant mind. He stepped in, his expression unusually tense, a leather-bound file pressed tightly against his chest. “You look troubled,” Valus noted, finally facing him. “I am,” Marcus said. “This concerns Lady Maika.” At her name, Valus’s expression softened slightly—a rare flicker of paternal affection. “She’s been… different lately. Distant. I know something troubles her.” Marcus nodded. “She came to me two nights ago. Asked me to help her unlock sealed memories. She wanted the tr

    The moon loomed low over the mountains, casting silver light upon the obsidian spires of the Vampire Kingdom. The black stone of Castle Umbra shimmered under the stars as Queen Vantessa, sovereign of the witches, arrived unannounced at its gates. Her violet cloak billowed in the chill wind as her guards remained at the threshold, leaving her to ascend the grand staircase alone.Inside the palace, the scent of ancient incense and iron blood filled the air. Crimson banners bearing the sigil of House Valus draped from the ceilings, their threads humming with faint enchantments. At the far end of the throne room, seated in an armchair carved from moonstone and bone, was Lord Valus himself.His pale gaze lifted, his expression unreadable.“Vantessa,” he said coolly. “You come in person. That is rare.”“We need to speak,” she said, her voice edged with the weight of many unspoken things. “Now.”Valus stood, his long coat trailing behind him as he descended the dais. “You have my attention.”
