CLAIRAELLE’S POV

The walls began to sink.

One by one, the dark stone barriers that had turned the arena into a maze slid back into the ground. Dust rose in thick clouds and then slowly settled. The open field returned, cracked and marked by the paths we had run. The blue safe line still glowed faintly under the lights.

Candidates who had finished stood or sat in loose groups across the finishing area. Some were still catching their breath. Others already looked recovered. A few were missing. I

  • The Lunar Selection Games    Chapter 26: Back To The Chambers

    CLAIRAELLE'S POV Tobias's private quarters were much larger than I had expected.He opened a set of double doors and stepped inside. I followed him cautiously, looking around as I entered.The room was spacious, with dark furniture, a large bed against the far wall and a wide window overlooking the castle gardens.There was a sitting area near the fireplace, and a desk covered with several documents.Everything looked expensive, but the room wasn't overly decorated.Tobias closed the door behind us."Sit down."I looked at him suspiciously.He glanced at the bed."On the edge. I need to look at your ankle."I hesitated.Then I walked towards the bed and sat down carefully.Tobias disappeared into an adjoining room.I remained where I was, my hands resting on my lap.What was happening?A few minutes ago, he had been furious enough to pin me against a wall. Now he had brought me into his private room to treat my injury.I couldn't understand him.Perhaps this was another one of his st

  • The Lunar Selection Games    Chapter 5: A Dangerous Kind Of Jealousy

    CLAIRAELLE'S POVThe door struck the wall with a loud bang.I jumped in my seat.A tall figure strode into the room, his dark hair slightly dishevelled and his golden eyes fixed on the man standing near the window.Alpha King Tobias Kingston.His face was hard as stone.And judging by the look in his eyes, he was not pleased to find me sitting in the Vampire Emperor's private audience chamber.Dimitri remained perfectly calm."Alpha King," he greeted."Emperor."Tobias barely acknowledged him. His attention shifted to me. "Clairaelle. Come with me."I blinked.Was he speaking to me?I glanced at Dimitri, who seemed far too entertained by the sudden interruption."Your Majesty, I was still speaking with the Emperor.""I can see that." His voice was cold. “And I asked you to follow me this instant.”I looked at Dimitri again, unsure what to do.The Vampire Emperor picked up his cup and took a slow sip. "Don't let me keep you, Clairaelle. It seems the Alpha King has something rather urge

  • The Lunar Selection Games    Chapter 24: An Unexpected Visitor

    CLAIRAELLE'S POV For a few seconds, I simply stared at him.He couldn't possibly mean that the way it sounded.I looked at the Vampire Emperor sitting across from me. His expression was composed, his posture relaxed, and there was nothing in his face that suggested he was joking.I cleared my throat. "Your Imperial Majesty, I don't think you should like me."One of his eyebrows lifted slightly. "Why not?""Because..." I hesitated, trying to find the right words. "You're an important official. You're the Vampire Emperor. I'm a human candidate in the Selection Games. I don't think it's appropriate for someone in your position to like one of the contestants. Especially someone like me."Dimitri remained quiet.I continued before I could lose my courage."It could cause rumours. People might think I'm receiving special treatment, or that there's something happening between us. I already have enough trouble attracting attention without adding another reason for people to talk."He watched

  • The Lunar Selection Games    Chapter 23: A Confession From The Vampire Emperor

    CLAIRAELLE'S POVFor a moment, I couldn't move.Both guards stood before me, waiting for an answer. One represented the Alpha King, the other the Vampire Emperor. Both were powerful men, and both had decided that my evening should involve a private audience with them.I glanced at Savannah and Zelda.Savannah looked as though she wanted to grab me by the shoulders and demand an explanation. Zelda, on the other hand, seemed far too entertained by the entire situation."Well?" Zelda whispered. "Are you going to stand there all night?""I haven't decided.""You should probably decide before one of them gets impatient," She murmured.That was exactly what I was afraid of.I looked from one guard to the other. Neither offered any help. They simply stood with their hands clasped behind their backs, waiting for me to make up my mind.I took a breath.Then I turned towards one of them. "Very well. I'll come."The guard inclined his head politely. "Please follow me, Candidate."I glanced back

  • The Lunar Selection Games    Chapter 22: A Tough Choice

    CLAIRAELLE'S POV “Let's hope we don't encounter another person like her again,” I muttered.Marcia looked at the key in her hand. “There's something written here.” She held it closer to the light.A small inscription ran along its side.Elowen leaned forward. “Can you read it?”Marcia nodded slowly. “Only the worthy may claim what was lost.”I looked around.The inside of the tower was much larger than it had appeared from outside.A circular room stretched before us, with five stone pillars arranged around a raised platform. In the centre stood a silver chest.Above it, a large clock hung from the ceiling.Its hands were still frozen at six.Kieran looked at the chest. “That must be the seal.”I approached it cautiously.There were five small spaces around the chest, each marked with the same symbols we had seen on the door.The four coloured symbols glowed faintly.The fifth remained dark.Marcia examined the chest. “There's no lock.”“Then open it,” Lyra said impatiently.“Don't y

  • The Lunar Selection Games    Chapter 21: Small Victories

    CLAIRAELLE'S POV The rest of my teammates attacked together.Elowen moved first, sending several thick vines across the ground. At the same time, Marcia raised both hands and released a burst of purple light towards the woman's face.The woman lifted her arms.Her silver protection appeared again.But this time, Lyra and Kieran were already moving.They attacked from opposite sides.The woman blocked Lyra's claws, then turned to avoid Kieran's strike. For the first time, she was forced to take several steps backwards.Elowen pulled her hands together.The vines wrapped around the woman's right leg.Marcia sent another blast towards her.The woman twisted, but the magic struck her shoulder.A small tear appeared in her sleeve.She looked down at it.Then she raised her eyes.The expression on her face had changed. “Better.”The word barely left her mouth before she moved.She grabbed one of the vines and pulled.Elowen was dragged several feet across the stones.“Let go!” Kieran shout
