Aria’s POV:

Something was wrong with me. I knew it the moment I woke up. There was a strange emptiness beneath my skin. It wasn’t pain. Not exactly. It was more like my body was searching for something my mind couldn’t name.

I lay there staring at the ceiling, trying to figure it out. My stomach growled. Hungry. That had to be it. I hadn’t eaten much the night before. After yesterday’s events it’s not surprising. I pushed myself out of bed and got ready for breakfast. Maybe food would fix what

    Aria’s POV: Something was wrong with me. I knew it the moment I woke up. There was a strange emptiness beneath my skin. It wasn’t pain. Not exactly. It was more like my body was searching for something my mind couldn’t name.I lay there staring at the ceiling, trying to figure it out. My stomach growled. Hungry. That had to be it. I hadn’t eaten much the night before. After yesterday’s events it’s not surprising. I pushed myself out of bed and got ready for breakfast. Maybe food would fix whatever this was.It didn’t…I ate enough to make Crystal stare at me across the table.“Are you okay?” I looked down at my empty plate.“Yeah.”“You just ate enough for three people.”“I guess I was hungry.” She raised an eyebrow.“You’ve been hungry all morning.”“I know.”The strange thing was, I still felt empty.My stomach was full. Whatever part of me that was asking for something…It hadn’t been satisfied. I tried my best to ignore it. I really did. I spent the morning in class. I took notes.

  • The Girl with the Violet Eyes    Decisions made in fear

    Aria’s POV: The Council chamber had never felt smaller.I stood in the center of the room with Lucien beside me, surrounded by ancient stone, cold faces, and too many pairs of eyes watching my every breath. Elder Thorne sat at the center of the curved table. He looked almost pleased to see me. I didn’t like that one bit. “We’ve exhausted the standard methods,” Elder Thorne said.Lucien’s hand remained loosely at my back.“The standard methods failed,” another elder corrected.“They all failed,” Thorne replied. “Which is precisely the problem.”I swallowed. “What exactly are you asking me to do?”The doors opened behind us. An unfamiliar woman entered. She was older than the other witches I’d seen at Ebonveil, her silver hair braided tightly down her back. Dark markings covered her hands, disappearing beneath the sleeves of her robes.The air changed when she entered. My magic reacted immediately. A cold prickling crawled across my skin. Lucien noticed the change. His hand tightened

  • The Girl with the Violet Eyes    You’ll never stand alone

    Lucien’s POV: I knew something was wrong before I saw her. The academy had a way of speaking without words. It was as if the air shifted, every hall quiet and intense. Secrets spilling from the walls. By the time I reached the western corridor, I’d already heard three different versions of what happened.Lorie had cornered Aria. Lorie had pushed her. Jasper had found her. Jasper had carried her out. Every version made my blood run colder. None of them told me how badly Aria was hurt.I turned the corner. There she was. Walking toward me with Crystal beside her. Her books were pressed against her chest, and she was listening to Crystal talk about something with a faint smile on her face.She looked fine. Which was concerning after everything that happened. I stopped. Aria noticed me a second later. Her smile disappeared. Not from fear. Recognition. She knew I’d heard.“Lucien.” I crossed the distance between us.“What happened?” Crystal looked between us.“I’ll…” She hesitated. “…give

  • The Girl with the Violet Eyes    Unspoken words

    Archer’s POV:I knew something was wrong the second I stepped onto the training grounds. The wolves were talking. Not the usual kind of talking. This was quieter. Conversations stopped when I walked past. Heads turned. A few students looked at me before quickly looking away. Kieran was waiting beside the practice ring. His expression told me everything. I wasn’t going to like what he had to say. “What happened?” He pushed away from the fence.“Hawthorne attacked Aria.” My body went still.“What?”“She cornered her in the east wing bathroom.” My wolf stirred violently.“Is she hurt?”“Bruised. Maybe worse.”“Maybe?”“Kieran.” He sighed.“Jasper found her.”The name hit differently than I expected.“What did he do?”“He restrained Lorie before she could do anything else.” I waited.“And?”“He carried Aria out.” My jaw tightened.Of course he did. I looked away. For a week, I’d been telling myself Jasper was the problem. That he was selfish. That he would eventually hurt her again. Tha

  • The Girl with the Violet Eyes    True colors

    Aria’s POV: A stack of books was waiting for me when I arrived at my desk. At first I assumed someone had left them there by mistake. Then I noticed the small folded note resting on top. Just four words written on it. “Thought these might help.” My stomach tightened.I didn’t have to guess who they’d come from. I could tell by the elegant handwriting. Every title was about ancient bloodlines. Forgotten kingdoms. Lost magic. Prophecies. Exactly the subjects I’d been searching for since finding the book in the library.I looked around the classroom. Jasper was sitting near the windows. Not in the seat beside me, like he used too. For the first time since we’d met…He wasn’t trying to force my attention. He simply looked over once. As our eyes met he offered the smallest nod. Then returned to the book in front of him. No smile. No wink. No teasing. Just…the space I asked for. I felt my magic pulse in my hands, like it was begging to go to him. I ignored it. Crystal leaned over my shoul

  • The Girl with the Violet Eyes    Chasing the truth

    Jasper’s POV:I hadn’t slept well in days. The ceiling above my bed had become painfully familiar over the last week. Every crack in the stone. Every shadow cast by the moon. Every hour that crawled by while my mind replayed the same memories over and over again.Aria laughing in the courtyard. Aria sitting in my lap. Aria’s hands unbuttoning my shirt. Her breath catching when I touched her. Then…“I’m a virgin, Jasper.”The words haunted me like a ghost. Not because she’d said them. Because of my actions afterward. I’d looked terrified. I had been terrified. Not of her. Of myself. I sat up with a frustrated groan, dragging both hands down my face.“Still awake?”I looked toward the doorway. Rylan leaned against the frame with a mug balanced in one hand. One of the few people who’d been around long enough to ignore titles. He didn’t bow. Didn’t treat me like the Fae Heir. He treated me like Jasper. Which usually meant he was about to annoy me.“What time is it?”“Late enough that you’
