I watched Ambrosius leave my room that night, his lips still curved into that familiar smirk, his eyes glinting with something between amusement and hunger. The kiss lingered on my lips, but instead of sending a flutter through my chest, it left me cold. I wasn’t some naïve girl caught off guard by a man’s attention anymore. I knew exactly what he was doing.
Ambrosius thought he had me where he wanted. He believed his touches, his words, his lingering kisses were slowly breaking me down, making me pliant and submissive to his whims. But he was wrong. If this was a game, then it was time I started playing it too.
That night, as I lay in bed, I thought about everything that had happened since he first kissed me. The way he approached me, so sure of himself. The way his hands lingered, his lips brushing against my skin just long enough to make me question my reactions. He had been using his charm as a weapon, but two could play at that game.

Seraphina’s POVWhen we finally reached the small, secluded garden outside the castle, I stopped, looking around. The place was beautiful, lush with vibrant flowers and vines that climbed the walls. A fountain bubbled in the center, its soft murmur filling the air. Ambrosius turned to me, his smile still in place.“I thought you might like a place of your own,” he said, gesturing to the garden. “Somewhere you can come when you need to get away.”I blinked, caught off guard for a moment. He had created this space for me? But then, as I glanced around, I realized what he was doing. This wasn’t just a gift. It was another attempt to draw me closer, to make me think he cared, that he was giving me something special.I smiled softly, playing along. “It’s beautiful.”Ambrosius stepped closer, his hand resting on my arm. “You deserve beauty in your life, Seraphina.”I let my gaze linger on the flowers for a moment, pretending to be moved by the ges

The Last Moonbane The New Start
Classes at Loisage were grueling, designed to push the limits of intellect and magical skill. My days were filled with arcane studies, deep dives into bloodline magic, and endless history lessons about the ancient families that ruled our world. It was overwhelming at times, but it was also the distraction I needed. The more I immersed myself in the academy’s world of magic and knowledge, the further I could push thoughts of Ambrosius to the back of my mind.Ancient curses became the primary focus of my studies. Loisage prided itself on unraveling the mysteries of old bloodlines, and my family’s curse intrigued not only my professors but my fellow students as well. I had begun to piece together fragments of the curse’s origin—rumors of ancient rites and long-forgotten betrayals that stretched back through centuries. The more I uncovered, the more questions arose.
The Last Moonbane The New Start (2)
Seraphina's POVI should have felt relief at his silence, but instead, I felt a small gnawing anxiety. I hadn’t expected it to be this exhausting—maintaining the delicate balance of keeping Ambrosius close enough to believe I was still invested while also keeping him at arm’s length.Back when I first asked him for help in securing a place at Loisage Academy, I had thought it would be easy—manipulate his affections just enough to get what I wanted. He had arranged everything—even brought my brother Stephen here, with Helena in tow to care for him. He had handed me exactly what I’d asked for on a silver platter.But I hadn’t anticipated the emotional strain that would come with playing this game. I had to stay attached, but not too attached. Soft enough to stir his concern, distant enough to hold onto my leverage.
The Last Moonbane The New Start (1)
Seraphina's POVLoisage Academy had become my sanctuary—the perfect place to distance myself from Ambrosius and regain some semblance of freedom. It had been three months since I first arrived here, and in that time, I had settled into a routine. My days were filled with lessons, ancient spells, and the study of magical history, while my nights were consumed by thoughts of Ambrosius and what he might be planning.Ambrosius had been the one to orchestrate my placement at Loisage Academy. When he heard I wanted to attend, he jumped at the chance to arrange everything, likely hoping it would cool the tension between us. His plan had worked smoothly; too smoothly. But the game wasn’t over. He had even ensured my brother Stephen and Helena came along, making the transition seamless.Stephen and I were both students now, and Helena had remained nearby to care for him. Though Loisage Academy wasn’t meant for ordinary people, exceptions were made in my

Seraphina’s POV"Why so nervous?" I whispered, leaning even closer so that my breath tickled his ear. “Isn’t this what you wanted?”Ambrosius flinched, his entire body going rigid. He opened his mouth to respond, but no words came out. I could see the panic starting to bloom in his eyes. He had expected me to be shy, demure, hesitant—but instead, I was bold, assertive, and unapologetically close.For a moment, neither of us moved. The tension in the air thickened, and I could feel his breath quickening as he stared at me, completely unsure of how to react."You’ve been chasing me for days now, haven’t you?" I continued, my voice a sultry whisper. “You win, I fall in love with you, Ambrosius.” I smiled as I announced the news, my tone lacking any hint of shyness or hesitation. At that moment, I wasn’t a girl confessing her
The Last Moonbane The Winner (1)
Seraphina’s POVThe next few days, something shifted. It wasn’t Ambrosius coming to find me like usual. This time, I was the one who sought him out.I still remember the first time I did it. The moment I entered his space uninvited, the look of surprise on his face quickly shifted to joy—followed by a flicker of smug satisfaction. He thought he had finally won. He thought my coming to him was a sign that I had surrendered, that I was the one giving in, eager to be near him.But that flicker of satisfaction didn’t last long.Because I didn’t just stop by for polite conversation. I didn’t wait for his games to begin. I made myself a constant presence in his life, filling his space with my own. And I wasn’t the delicate girl he expected.At first, I used the same tactics he’d used on me: lit
The Last Moonbane The Teacher (2)
Seraphina’s POVHe gave a faint smile, one that felt almost knowing, but he didn’t challenge me. He simply stepped back, his hand falling away, leaving a cold absence where his touch had been.And that’s how it started. Ambrosius began appearing regularly, always with some vague reason—a walk here, a meal there, sometimes simply to talk. The more time we spent together, the more disorienting his visits became, the boundaries between prisoner and captor beginning to blur in ways I wasn’t ready to admit.Each outing felt strangely… normal. He would ask me questions about my past, about Stephen, about the human school I once attended. His inquiries felt genuine, as if he was truly interested. But each time, as our conversations grew more personal, there was always a touch, some subtle, lingering contact—a hand guiding me, fingers brushing mine, his gaze lingering just a beat too long. Each touch made my heart skip, a thrill that left me feeling both intrigued and vulnerable.And then cam
The Last Moonbane The Teacher (1)
Seraphina’s POVI never thought Ambrosius’ definition of “soon” would be so immediate. That very night, I saw Stephen and Helena again. The door to my dimly lit room opened, and they were ushered in, flanked by guards on either side. I stopped breathing for a moment, my heart twisting with worry and relief. Stephen, my twin and mirror image, stood tall, his familiar face just a touch paler. Helena, always so composed, looked weary but unbroken.In the seconds I had, I searched their faces for signs of harm. Were they tortured? Mistreated? I feared the worst, but as I scanned them for cuts or bruises, my tension eased a bit. They looked unharmed, though undeniably drained. Both of them met my gaze with faint, reassuring smiles. But before any of us could speak, the guards began to usher them away, our reunion as brief as a heartbeat.My relief was short-lived. Seeing them for that fleeting moment only made my longing and worry worse. Were they safe, or was this just another way for Amb
