Lucian stared at Zeda, hurt flashing in his eyes.

“Is that what you think?” His voice was low, almost disappointed.

Zeda opened her mouth to rephrase her question, but he held up a hand.

“Look, I might be a lot of things, but I’m not selfish, especially not with you,” he said. “I’ve been able to control my beast just fine with my bike or music ever since I came of age. I don't need anything else to keep the monster at bay.”

He stood up and then knelt before her, easily tilting her chair to face

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    ONE ROOM

    The silence in the conference room stretched thin as Mr. Percival leaned forward, his gaze fixed on the center of the table. "The village we are targeting is remote," he began, his voice echoing slightly against the high ceiling. "The closest hotel is a small, local establishment, and we were only able to secure thirteen rooms for the entire group. “Between the twenty mages, the driver, and the five medical staff joining you, there are twenty-six people in total. That means we will be doubling up. You’ll have to pair with a partner to share a room for the duration of the stay."Lucas blinked, his eyebrows shooting up toward his hairline as he let out a sharp breath. "That’s it? That’s the big inconvenience?"Zeda let out a long, quiet sigh of relief. She had been braced for something grueling, perhaps an announcement that they would be forced to go without supplies. Sharing a room felt manageable. It wasn't exactly a luxury, but for a short mission, it was hardly a disaster. She k

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    INCONVENIENCE

    Everyone sat perfectly still, their eyes locked on the Director as he prepared to lay out the stakes of their sudden summons.Mr. Percival leaned back, the leather of his chair creaking under the weight of his authority. "There is a group of dangerous, rebellious, rogue supernatural beings causing trouble," Mr. Percival began, his voice devoid of emotion. "Our intel suggests they plan to attack a nearby human village by dawn tomorrow.“Their goal is to seize it, likely to turn it into a permanent refuge or a base of operations for further raids. I want you to stop them before they even reach the perimeter."The air in the room seemed to chill. Zeda felt a prickle of unease crawl up her spine. A village. Real people with real lives were being targeted by things they probably didn't even believe existed.Ava shifted in her seat, her fingers laced together on the polished table."Sir," she began, her voice respectful but curious, "are they planning to wipe out the entire population, or

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    LEADERS

    The heavy doors to the mage kingdom conference room groaned as they swung open, revealing a space that felt much older and colder than the rest of the building. A long, dark wood table dominated the center of the room, polished to a mirror finish that reflected the dim light. Nine chairs surrounded it—four on each side and a larger, more imposing head chair at the center. To the left, a tall, narrow window overlooked the front grounds, offering a view of the gray sky and the wet grass that shimmered under the damp air of the rainy season.Mr. Percival moved with a purposeful stride and settled into the head chair, his presence immediately anchoring the room, while Adrian took the seat closest to his right. Zeda hesitated for a heartbeat, her eyes scanning the empty chairs, before she finally settled into the seat beside Adrian. The proximity felt strange now—comforting yet tense after the kiss that had been so abruptly cut short.They sat in a silence so thick it was hard to breath

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    STAKES

    Zeda watched the warmth drain from Adrian’s face as he pulled away, his focus shifting entirely to the phone vibrating in his hand. A deep frown creased his forehead, and the air between them—which had been soft and electric just seconds ago—suddenly turned cold and professional. Before she could find the words to ask who was calling, Adrian answered, his voice dropping into a respectful, measured tone as he greeted Mr. Percival.Zeda stood there, her heart still hammering against her ribs from the kiss, but the romantic haze was already evaporating. She understood that look on Adrian's face; it was the expression he wore whenever duty called, and the fact that Mr. Percival was calling personally meant something significant was happening or about to happen. She decided to wait in silence until the call was over, but she didn’t have to wait long. The conversation lasted less than thirty seconds, ending with a sharp click that left the room feeling emptier than before.When the call

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    DEEP CONFESSIONS

    “It happened on her birthday,” Adrian revealed. “We had a three-day mixed team mission and the second day was her birthday. Mr. Percival respected our relationship and gave us the option of opting out of the team and celebrating together because obviously, no one wanted to spend their birthday in pain while fighting on a war front with the potential of being killed. Ava agreed, but I didn’t. I didn’t think it was right for a leader of one of the kingdoms to be unavailable when needed by the academy—to be unable to help because of a birthday party. I told her that I’ll make it up to her when I return and went for the mission while she stayed behind.”“I guess she didn’t want anything to do with you when you returned?” Zeda asked.Adrian nodded. “When I came back, she was livid. She said I valued my position, title, and reputation over our relationship. That she had willingly adapted to be with me, but I’ve never done that—never sacrificed for our relationship,” he chuckled without humo

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    REVELATIONS

    The awkward silence stretched on and unlike Torvin, Adrian had no intention of diffusing it, so Zeda decided to take the matter into her own hands.“You’re still angry with me,” she sighed, shaking her head.“I’m not,” Adrian denied and rose to his feet.“That’s a lie, you are,” she followed him. She wasn’t going to let the little thing they had fizzle off just because of an insignificant argument.“And why would I?” He stared at her, looking insulted.“Because of our little argument after the team meeting. It wasn’t the best of goodbyes, was it?”“So you think I’m angry because you wouldn’t let me drive you back home and went to look for your ex instead after hearing about his departure?” He scoffed. “No, I’m not.”“Then why….” She shook her head in frustration. “Never mind, let’s just start the training already.”She began walking out of the office to the training ground then stopped abruptly at the door and wheeled around to face Adrian, who hadn’t moved an inch from where he stood

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    LUCIAN’S DECISION

    “Lucian…” Zeda moaned as Lucian trailed kisses down her neck, her body quivering with need as his expert hands masterfully skimmed over her body.She urged him toward the bed with her weight, and a low chuckle rumbled in Lucian’s chest as his back hit his bed with Zeda straddling him.Memories of h

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    THE DEMON’S ONLY CURE

    Zeda left Adrian’s office, the image of what happened in Adrian’s training ground playing in her mind like a loop.Adrian had called Mr. Percival with the phone on speaker for her to hear and told him about Zeda’s new power. But instead of being surprised or providing an explanation of why she cou

    Zeda woke up on Monday morning with a smile on her face, something that hadn't happened in the past week.It was all thanks to the Torvin effect the previous day, his easy jokes and lighthearted nature making him the perfect person to be with in dark times.She was also happy to finally have her lo

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    A MEMORABLE DAY

    Murphy looked at Zeda and let out a heavy sigh, shame boldly written on his face. “Look, Zeda, I am truly sorry for my behavior at Torvin’s house. I was completely out of line, and there is no excuse for disrespecting you like that.”“Shouldn’t you be groveling at her feet?” Torvin asked him with a
