MARA

"Ish...what a foolish girl..."

Trust is a currency and incredibly easy to counterfeit.

That’s why I don’t deal in trust.

I deal in leverage.

In secrets.

In intentions people think they’ve hidden well enough because they never do.

Especially not now.

Not with everything shifting.

Not with Thalrion growing bolder.

Not with power changing hands faster than anyone can keep up with and definitely not with someone like her walking freely through all of it.

Arena.

I watch her before she sees me.

  • THE TRIBID HOCKEY GOD & HIS OBSESSION   CHAPTER 200: WARNING

    EVELESSA There’s something about dance that strips everything away.No titles.No war.No expectations.Just movement and the quiet rhythm of something that belongs only to me.I stand in the center of the rehearsal studio.Mirrors stretch across the walls.Reflecting every angle.Every flaw.Every strength.Music plays low through the speakers.My body moves before I think.Step.Turn.Breathe.Again.Faster.Sharper.Because this isn’t just practice.It’s discipline.It’s control.And control?Is the only thing keeping everything else from burning out of my hands.“Again.”My voice cuts through the room.The other dancers groan softly.Tired.Sweating.Human.I ignore it.“From the top.”They reset.Positions locked.Eyes on me.Always on me.Because if they’re watching they’re learning.Music starts again and I move.Everything else fades.The world narrows.Just steps.Just rhythm.Suddenly I feel a strange presence with us.My body reacts before my mind catches up.I stop.Mid-s

    LIRADragons don’t trust easily.We remember too much.Betrayals.Wars.Promises broken long before most of this world was even built.So when someone asks for an audience with me especially now I don’t assume it’s respect.I assume it’s a test.Or a mistake.Mara?She feels like both.I stand at the edge of the cliff overlooking the sea.Waves crash below.The wind moves through my hair.Carrying salt.Carrying warning.Because something about tonight?Is wrong.“You chose a dramatic place.”Her voice cuts through the air behind me.I don’t turn.Not yet.“Dragons don’t do subtle,” I reply.A pause.Footsteps.She’s not rushing.That means she’s thinking.Or pretending to.“Is that what you are?” she asks.“A dragon?”I smile slightly.Now I turn.Face her.“Do you want to find out?”She holds my gaze.Doesn’t flinch.Doesn’t step back.Interesting.“Not tonight,” she says.Smart answer but not honest.Because she didn’t come here to talk.“You’ve been busy,” I say.“Everyone has.”“

    ALEXIS"Come out...come out wherever you are now"Arena.Even thinking her name feels like touching something sharp because she doesn’t fight like the others.She hides.Builds layers.Creates versions of herself.Covers.Faces.Lives.And each one?A lie.But lies leave traces.They always do.You just have to know where to look.I stand at the edge of the city.Far from campus.This part of town doesn’t sleep.It festers.Broken glass crunches under my boots.And somewhere behind all of this she’s here.Not physically.Not fully.But one of her shadows is.One of her carefully crafted identities.And tonight I burn it.“Are you sure about this?”The voice comes from behind me.Sebastian.He always shows up when things get interesting.Or dangerous.Usually both.I don’t turn.“I didn’t come here to second-guess myself.”“That wasn’t what I asked.”I exhale slowly.Then glance over my shoulder.He’s leaning against a car.Arms crossed.Watching me like he’s trying to read something I

  • THE TRIBID HOCKEY GOD & HIS OBSESSION   CHAPTER 197: KILL ORDER

    UNKNOWN The gun range reeked of gun powder, I'd been here longer than necessary, and the kick in my shoulder was starting to feel like a dull throb in my head but it didn't matter. The target at the far end continued to stand there, its edges running in and out with the precision of each shot that I fired. It felt like the only thing I was capable of doing now was shooting, hit something, I am beyond frustrated as father cut me off his will but as soon as the bullet hit the target, I couldn't help but feel like I was just striking pieces of my own fury. I could not hit the thing that mattered. I could not hit what I actually had on my mind. I fired again. The sound reverberated out, sharp and distinct, and I could sense the weight of it push into my chest. I was tired of chasing dreams, tired of chasing rabbits who were only going to chase me round and round. I placed the gun down, cleaned my forehead of the sweat, and breathed out slowly. There was a crackling silence as I conte

    ALEXANDER "Keep searching till you find something. We won't leave empty-handed."There’s a rhythm to places like this.Underground.Not just in location, in energy.In the way people breathe when they think no one important is watching.Music pounds overhead.Bass thick enough to feel in your bones.Bodies move.Sweat.Heat.Noise.Chaos.Perfect cover.Which is exactly why I’m here.I lean against the railing overlooking the lower floor.Drink untouched in my hand.Eyes moving.Always moving.Because nights like this?They don’t stay quiet.Not anymore.Not with everything going on.Not with him out there.Thalrion.Even thinking his name feels like an invitation.And apparently he accepted. “Alright,” I mutter.“Let’s do this.”I push off the railing.Move through the crowd.Not rushing.Not reacting.Just… stepping into it because if they’re here for me, I’m not going to make them chase.I head for the back.The quieter part.Where the music fades just enough to hear footsteps.W

  • THE TRIBID HOCKEY GOD & HIS OBSESSION   CHAPTER 195: SIREN

    EVELESSA “Siren.”I repeat the theme under my breath as Alexis adjusts the strap on my dress.“Very fitting,” she mutters.“Danger wrapped in beauty.”I glance at her.“Or beauty mistaken for danger.”She snorts.“No one is mistaking you for harmless.”I turn toward the mirror.And for a moment even I pause.Silver.Not soft.Not delicate.The fabric clings like liquid metal, flowing over my body in a way that feels almost alive. The neckline dips just enough to be daring, the slit high enough to make a statement without asking permission.My hair falls in loose waves, catching the light.My eyes?Cold.Focused.Unapologetic.I don’t look like a girl attending a school competition.I look like something summoned.“Cassain is going to lose his mind,” Alexis says.“He already has ” I reply.She grins.“Fair.”A knock interrupts us.“Five minutes!” someone calls.Showtime.I take one last look at myself.Not for validation.For control.Because tonight isn’t about winning.It’s about pr

    EVELESSA "Hmmp..."Aretha laughs "If you sign one more time, I'm calling Cassain over. You said you wanted to go shopping with me without anyone."I'm standing in the middle of an expensive boutique, staring at clothes yet picking nothing.Two weeks ago I woke from a coma with silver hair, a crown

    EVELESSA "Ouch!" I feel a bit of headache, I look around and realise I'm surrounded by bubbles, I remember then that I changed fully as Medusa, Davina was the copycat and I cut off her tongue. I stand slowly as my chest rises with a sharp inhale.The ceiling above me gleams with pale marble veins,

    EVELESSA "Get to the school now Evelessa, the cycle needs to end now," my wolf Aretha speaks urgently.I pull my jacket tighter and step into the back courtyard, my boots quiet against the stone path as cold air brush against my skin.The forest behind the academy is dark tonight, the moon hidden
