The penthouse lights blurred into soft gold and silver as the evening stretched on. We were now sitting at the sleek marble bar counter, legs dangling slightly, my sweater now taken off leaving my vest, showing off my lean muscles because the room felt warmer than it should. Elias had poured another cocktail, something sweet and strong with a bright red cherry floating on top. I didn’t even remember what it was called anymore. The last few had gone down too easily.

  • Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds   CHAPTER 105— New world horror (5)

    I did not know how much time we had until the next freeze. The jade had told me the ancient heart beat once every few hours, but few was not a number I could trust. It could mean two hours. It could mean three. It could mean the next pulse was already building beneath our feet while I sat here holding Aldric's head in my lap. His breathing had grown fainter. Each exhale was shallower than the last, and the blood from his wounds had not stopped. The shards of rock were still embedded in his flesh, too deep for me to remove without causing more damage. But the blood loss alone would kill him if I did nothing. The wounds themselves would fester. His divine beast constitution was strong, but even a divine beast could bleed out on cold stone. I needed food. Not for me. For him. The jade had shown me that divine beasts could accelerate healing if they had sufficient energy, and energy came from consuming things rich in spiritual essence. The forest, for all its dangers, contained frui

    The cave held us in its narrow darkness while the third pulse faded. Aldric's hand remained locked with mine, his fingers cold but still holding. We waited. The jade had told us about the freeze. It had told us about the thaw that would follow. But knowledge and experience were two different things. The jade's information was clinical, detached, the words of someone who had studied this forest from a distance. It had not prepared me for the way my lungs burned when the cold finally began to retreat. The change came slowly at first. A lessening of pressure. A softening of the frost that coated the cave walls. I felt it in my bones before I saw it, the ancient heart's grip loosening as the pulse passed. Then the thaw arrived like a weapon. The temperature did not rise gradually. It exploded upward, a violent rush of warmth that slammed into the frozen cave like a physical force. Every surface that had been crystallized moments before began to crack. The frost on the walls t

  • Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds   CHAPTER 103— New world horror (3)

    I pulled the jade pendant from around my neck and held it between my palms. The information came not as words on a surface but as a flood directly into my mind. Images. Sensations. Knowledge that unfolded like a flower opening its petals too fast, too wide, threatening to overwhelm me. Aldric touched my shoulder, and somehow his presence helped anchor me. The jade recognized him too, or perhaps it recognized that we were connected, and it poured its contents into both of us at once. I learned the name of this world, though it was not important yet. What mattered was what this world was. A realm where humans cultivated spiritual energy through breathing methods, body refinement, and Qi. Most humans were weak. The strong stood at the top like gods, capable of erasing cities with a single thought. With the humans were the divine beasts, descendants of primordial creatures tied to concepts. Storms. Decay. Moonlight. Oceans. Destruction. Their bloodlines were awakened, ancient, and p

    The silence after the ambush did not last. I barely had time to catch my breath before I heard footsteps approaching the cave. Not the careful steps of someone hunting. The heavy, desperate strides of someone running for their life. Aldric tensed beside me, his hand moving to the blade he had sheathed only moments ago. I held up my hand, signaling him to wait. The footsteps grew louder. Then a figure stumbled through the cave entrance. It was Balham, the tallest of the three strangers who had brought me here. His human form was barely holding together. Blood poured from a gash across his ribs, and his left arm hung at an unnatural angle. One of his eyes had swollen shut, but the other blazed with that same golden light I had seen earlier. He collapsed to his knees in front of us. "Balham," I said, moving toward him. "What happened?" He waved me off with his good hand, gasping for air. "They sent more. Many more. We were betrayed. Someone informed the sects that two Yao fra

  • Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds   CHAPTER 101— Separation

    Mattheus Jade Fallow. Not Zero. Not anymore. But the reintegration did not erase what Zero had felt. If anything, it amplified everything. The truth hit me with a force that made my chest ache physically, a deep bruise that would not fade any time soon. Zero had loved them. Both of them. Aldric with his steady presence and unspoken devotion. Seraphiel with his sharp edges and hidden warmth. And they had sealed me. Divided me. Reduced me to a fragment and not because they were afraid. Because they wanted to contain and possess, the prophecy demanded something neither of them had been willing to risk... if they hadn't forcefully sealed him.. something far more terrible than Aldric currently realises would happen. I understood the truth now. They had not acted out of malice. They had acted out of desperation. And that made it worse. Malice could be hated. Desperation could only be understood. And understanding hurt more than anything else. My mind threatened to drown in the weight

  • Sinful Desires: Fatal bonds   CHAPTER 100—His true name

    The impact had not been gentle at all. Zero lay where he had fallen, his body half turned against fractured stone, breath shallow but steady. Dust still drifted through the air around him, his ribs should have been broken from the impact, but oddly.. he seemed fine. The ground beneath him had caved slightly from the force that struck him down, a shallow crater marking the place where everything had shifted. Above him whilst his eye still closed, the sky stretched wide and distant, colorless in its stillness. The world outside continued as if nothing had happened. But within him, everything had. Darkness came first. It was vast and quiet. A place without edges or time. And he was not alone. Zero stood there, though he had no memory of rising. His body felt whole, untouched by injury, untouched by weight. He looked down at his hands slowly, turning them as if expecting to find something different. There was nothing. Just him. Or so he thought. A presence stirre

    The sixth night was the worst. Hope had worn thin. The priest, Zephyr, as Magnus had finally spoken his name aloud, had spent days tracing symbols no one in Del Imperium recognized. Circles within circles. Threads of light woven so fine they seemed like breath captured midair. Zero had not stir

    The vampire realm did not welcome wolves. It recoiled from them. Either realm were unforgiving to each kind. The moment Aldric crossed the threshold, ancient wards flared in warning, crimson sigils igniting along towering obsidian pillars. The air itself resisted him, thickening like syrup, pre

    The mission hall smelled of iron and smoke when Aldric returned. Four weeks of border cleansing had left their mark on him. His clothes bore faint tears at the sleeves, his boots still dusted with foreign soil. The mission pallet rested against his shoulder, sealed scrolls and confirmed kills boun

    They called it an emergency convocation. The great hall had never felt so suffocating. Rows upon rows of students filled the crescent tiers, uniforms pressed and immaculate, faces bright with curiosity that curdled into something uglier the moment I was led onto the central platform. The ceilin
