Mrs. Amelia spoke first. “So you’re saying that the people involved are planning something big for the party—maybe hurt the students with another explosion?”

“Yes,” Zeda replied. “Think about it. If someone is going against the school and wants to cause harm or bring it down, the party is the best time to do that. It will be packed with people, and everyone will be vulnerable because they won’t expect an attack.”

“Zeda’s right. The boutique explosion was probably a glimpse of what is to come at the party,” Carrie said.

“So you’re saying the party will be attacked?” Mrs. Amelia asked.

“Most likely,” Zeda replied.

“If that’s the case, then we should postpone the party,” Vyr suggested.

“Why, because you’re scared?” Torvin jabbed.

“Are you crazy?” Vyr retorted, glaring at him.

“Vyr’s right. It’s 90% likely that the party would be attacked, so I suggest we postpone it. We shouldn’t risk the lives of people, especially since we don’t know what we’re up against,” Lucian said.

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    AWKWARD SILENCE

    When Zeda got home, Carrie was already back and checking out several outfits she had bought in front of the mirror.“That looks stunning and sexy,” Zeda commented, admiring the two-piece blue crop top and skirt Carrie was currently wearing.“Really?” Carrie grinned at her, striking a pose.“Really.”“Well, I’m glad you think so, because I got you one, too,” Carrie revealed, digging out a red version of the same outfit.“You can’t be serious!” Zeda’s eyes widened as Carrie threw the clothes at her. Zeda caught them and took a closer look. She loved the soft ribbed knit texture of the fabric, and the stud designs around the neckline, just like Carrie’s, were beautiful.“I promised you a gift, didn’t I?” Carrie winked. “And this is what I pulled. Figured we could twin someday. Oh, and look...” Carrie brought out two matching pairs of white sneakers and handed her one. “Got us the same footwear, too.”“Oh my God, Carrie, this is amazing. You’re amazing. The best!” Zeda dropped the clothes

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    THE RIGHT CALL

    Zeda kissed Torvin back immediately, her hands moving over his body and enjoying every bit of muscle under her palms. He pulled her closer to him, and she could feel every part of his strong body against hers. His tongue flicked across her lips seeking an entrance, and she opened up for him, their tongues playing with each other as the kiss deepened.He flipped her over so that she was beneath him this time, his eyes bright with lust.“Zeda, you taste like heaven,” he groaned, trailing kisses down her neck.Zeda gasped and clutched his head, holding him to her neck and running her hands through his hair that was still damp from his shower, loving how silky it was. His hand disappeared underneath her T-shirt and cupped her breast through her bra.“Torvin...” she moaned his name, her back lifting off the couch and pressing into him.But then out of nowhere, like a cold splash of ice water, Lucian’s face—the way he looked when she told him she didn’t love him—appeared in her mind. Sudd

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    ROPE FROM THE ABYSS

    “Debtor?” Torvin sounded clearly surprised when he answered the call.“Hi,” Zeda bit her lip, not knowing what to say all of a sudden.“Whoa, to what do I owe this rare privilege, Your Majesty?” he asked, and she rolled her eyes with a smile, all her nerves suddenly gone.This was Torvin; there was no nervousness around him. At least, when he wasn’t angry.“Uhm... are you at home?” she asked.Torvin paused, and she could imagine the puzzled look on his face before he finally replied. “Yeah. Why?”“I want to come over, if you don’t mind,” she let out a breath the moment the words left her.Torvin paused again. “Hello? Please, can you give Zeda the phone now?”She laughed at that, and he joined her.“Stop it, I’m serious,” she said, wiping a stray tear of laughter.“You are? Talk about the biggest shock of the year,” he said. “Why, though? Am I in trouble?”“Nah, you have nothing to worry about,” she sighed and shrugged. “I’m just bored. And then I was thinking now is the best time for

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    SEEKING A DISTRACTION

    “You know you can join us, Z?” Carrie said to Zeda, who was watching her dress for her shopping date with Rylan.Zeda frowned and shook her head. “What? Isn’t it supposed to be a date?”“It is,” Carrie shrugged, “but your mental health is just as important to me.”“What’s that even supposed to mean?” Zeda chuckled.“It means I’d rather you follow me than stay home all alone and let your mind drift back to Lucian and whatever happened to you two. Then you'd return to square one, wallowing in depression and frustration and anxiety,” Carrie dragged in a breath after her rushed words and hand gestures which made Zeda amused.“Well, you don’t have to worry, I’ll be fine,” she assured.“Of course you won’t,” Carrie disagreed. “You need something or someone to keep you distracted.”“That won’t be necessary, C. I’m fine.”Carrie planted her hands on her hips and tilted her head to study her. “Really?”“Really.” Zeda got off the bed and hugged her. “Thanks for asking, though. You’re the best.”

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    A SUSPICIOUS OFFER

    “Hi, Mrs. Amelia, good morning,” Zeda greeted, putting the phone on speaker for Carrie to listen in.“Zeda, how are you doing?” Mrs. Amelia asked, her voice warm.“Great, eating a pizza,” Zeda grinned.“Oh, a nice morning then,” Mrs. Amelia chuckled. “Well, not to waste much of your time or interrupt your morning for long, I called to offer my help and assistance, if the need be.”Zeda exchanged a look with Carrie and frowned. “Your help?”“Yeah. I know that you’re having some difficulties in accessing your full powers, which is understandable, but this is me offering my help to you. Adrian is a great student, one of the best out there, but I think you need someone with a lot more experience to help you harness your powers,” said Mrs. Amelia.“Well, I guess you’re... you’re right,” Zeda stammered, totally caught off guard.“Look, Zeda, I’m not saying you should ditch Adrian as your tutor—no, that’s far from it. I just want you to know that you need an experienced, powerful tutor along

  • Zeda And The Four Princes Of Shadowbrook Academy    THE FIFTH ELEMENT

    “If I help you in your quest, what’s in it for me? What do I gain from it?”“I’ll help you unlock the demon portal and bring your people into the Earth, sir.”“Hahaha. Do you even know what it takes?”“Of course. A five-elemental Mage.”“So do you have any at your disposal?”“Yes, sir. Potentials, though.”“Potentials? I don’t need no fucking potentials here. What about the Empress? She’s still not back?”“No, sir, and no one still knows about her and her husband’s whereabouts. Besides, one of the two potentials is ahead of her.”“What?”“Yes sir. The Empress is a three-elemental Mage. Zeda, the female potential, is a four-elemental Mage, while Adrian, the male potential, is a two-elemental Mage.”“A four-elemental Mage? That should be the first in how many centuries now?”“Yes sir. Both of them have ascended the Realm, so it’s possible for them to hit the five-element level.”“That’s true, but we’ll focus on the girl, Zeda. We don’t have time to wait for the boy, do we?”“No, sir. Be
