281 - Before It Was Too Late

ARAHShe hit the floor hard, her back squelching into blood and organs. She didn’t know why she hadn’t dodged in time, but instinct had kicked in fast enough to let her grab him by the neck, holding him just inches from her face.He growled deep and loud, hot breath spilling over her skin, his teeth bared in a snarl. Saliva dripped from his jaws, hitting her cheek. It reeked of blood, bile, and something putrid—making her stomach turn. She whipped her head to the side, face twisting in disgust.“Barky, stop!” she yelled.But he didn’t. It was like he wasn’t even there anymore—just muscle, teeth, and rage. He was stronger and heavier than he’d ever been, like five Barkys packed into one body.Desperate, she threw her arm forward, activating her wind tattoo. It snapped around Barky’s body, wrapping tight like a whip. It pulled him off her with force, flinging him backward. But even as he was lifted, she felt the resistance in the mag

282 - Forced To Do It

GILDEONThe day had dragged on endlessly, and he’d never felt so worn out from living like a human. These past few days, it was as if the weight of the world pressed on his shoulders. He was drained, both physically and mentally. Something felt wrong. Was it because he’d been away from Shamibar too long?Kohina had warned him once: higher mortals weren’t meant to linger in Earthland. Only hunters could endure it. The atmosphere here was different, and their bodies, their spirits, needed Shamibar’s environment to thrive.However, Arah had shown none of the same strain. No weariness, no fading. Perhaps sylphs were different. Or maybe his own exhaustion was simply the toll of endless battles, one problem after another, grinding him down.And then there was Arah herself. Guilt gnawed at him ever since that night. He hadn’t meant to be cold toward her these past days, but he’d needed the distance. Needed space to clear his head.By the

283 - Staring At The Enemy

GILDEONHe stared at the floor, exhaling a heavy sigh. Just when he thought the Old Man couldn’t sink lower, he was hearing this. His jaw tightened. Haemos, torturing his own people now? The seers were harmless and devoted. Without them, the salamanders wouldn’t have survived the war to this day.He lifted his head, eyes flicking between Eitan and Yadira, his brow furrowed. “Why does Old Man need a portal?”His lieutenants exchanged another grave look.“Answer me,” he demanded.Yadira met his gaze squarely. “Because the commander is preparing to descend into Earthland.”“Commander Haemos will take the sigilmaker and…” Eitan hesitated.“What is it?” Gildeon hissed.His red-haired lieutenant turned away. “He ordered us to eliminate you.”Gildeon went still. In the past, he would’ve dismissed it as another empty threat. Haemos had promised his death more times than he could count, and never acted.Bu

284 - To Keep Him Hidden

GILDEONThey drove straight to Mabel’s house. Arah was tense the entire way. He worried for her, but the bigger concern was Nick—if he’d turned, if he was already wreaking havoc.If that was the case, they’d have no choice but to put him down. And when that happened, someone would have to explain it to Mabel.If only Roselia were here. She could’ve easily altered Mabel’s memories. But the witch was still out there hunting the breach, and he hadn’t heard from her since.He blew out a sharp breath behind the wheel, wishing he could split himself into a dozen bodies just to deal with the threats crashing down all at once. Haemos’s arrival on Earthland would have to wait.The moment he stopped the car, Arah bolted out before he could stop her.“Wait—” he called, but she didn’t so much as glance back.He turned to his lieutenants in the back seat. “Stay here. Only step in if things get ugly.”“Yes, Captain,” Eitan s

285 - It's All My Fault

GILDEONHe swung his arm up just in time to block Nick’s snapping jaws. The guy’s teeth elongated into fangs, sinking deep into his flesh until hot blood ran down his skin. The sudden burst of inhuman strength knocked him off balance, slamming his back hard against the cold floor.Mabel’s cries rang in his ears as she begged her husband to stop, but Nick was gone—no longer a man, only a predator enslaved by hunger.Gildeon couldn’t shift. Not with Mabel here. Watching her husband mutate before her eyes was already shattering her world.Seeing Gildeon in dragon form might finish her.Arah understood. She dragged Mabel toward the stairs, whispering to calm her. The moment they disappeared, Gildeon let the change take him. His arms rippled, scales tearing through his skin, crushing the lodged fangs in an instant. Heat surged down his body, fire bursting from his hide. Nick shrieked, recoiling as the flames scorched him.But bef

286 - New To Earthland

ARAHShe understood why Mabel had kept her husband hidden, instead of running away from him or turning him in to people who could help. Arah had known that ever since she’d spoken with Nick. They loved each other so deeply that the thought of being apart might’ve destroyed them more than anything else ever could.Guilt bloomed in her chest, knowing she'd caused all of this. The only thing keeping her together were Gildeon’s words. In the middle of her self-blame, his voice reminded her that this wasn’t what she’d meant to happen. She hadn’t wanted this. She hadn’t expected it to end this way. There were still so many things she was naive about.Still, she would carry her friend’s grief like it was her own. She would never forget what she’d done. And she would carry Nick’s memory with her for the rest of her life.She and Gildeon had already agreed on what they’d tell Mabel. It wasn’t

287 - Those Who Break Earthland's Laws

MABELAlmost two weeks had passed, and there was still no news about her husband. Part of her thought the police were just incompetent—not doing their jobs properly, wasting the taxes people worked so hard to pay. But another part of her felt relieved that he hadn’t been found yet. The thought of Nick in jail, sentenced to life for murdering their helper... that would destroy her.Someone knocked at her door, but she didn’t move an inch from the bed. Her eyes were fixed on her mom’s garden outside the window, watching a butterfly flutter in and out of the sunflowers and gumamela.“Mabel, how long are you going to stay locked up in there?” her mom called. “You’ve got to eat at least.”She didn’t respond. Instead, she curled up tighter and cried into one of Nick’s shirts which still smelled like his cologne. Her gaze fell to her wedding ring—her beautiful, shiny ring. All she’d ever dreamed about, since she was a little girl, was to marry a

288 - Deserved Even Worse Punishment

ARAHThey’d been productive over the past several days. Gildeon had been training her, Yadira, and Eitan in combat. They didn’t know exactly when Commander Haemos’s forces would arrive, but they had to be ready for anything. Ghulik was still in hibernation, and Roselia was still abroad, so for now, they only had each other to rely on.At the same time, they were helping the two lieutenants adapt to human life. Both Eitan and Yadira had deserted and would be branded traitors back in Shamibar. Staying on Earthland was their safest option now. And if they were going to live here long-term, they had to learn how to navigate the world of lower mortals.Eitan had picked things up fast. He was always eager, always curious. Everything blew his mind—TVs, coffee makers, smartphones... He called it all human magic, and said it was more impressive than the kind the higher mortals possessed. Arah had to agree. Most of the magic sylphs and salama

289 - In Another Life

ARAHShe wanted to run after Mabel and explain herself, but Cora grabbed her arm, shaking her head.“Give her time,” she said. “What you told her isn’t something she’s going to believe right away. Besides, you just admitted to making her a widow on her wedding night.”Arah sighed, clutching her collarbone as she watched Mabel storm off through the window.“Gotta give it to you,” Cora said. “I didn’t think you’d actually say it to her.”Arah sank into the couch. “I didn’t want to lie. And honestly, I wanted to see how she’d react. I needed that.”Cora sat beside her. “You’re planning to alter her memories, aren’t you?”Hearing it out loud made her stomach twist. She looked down and gave a small nod, shame creeping in. She had hurt their friend, knowing full well she could just erase it afterward.Cora exhaled deeply and leaned back into the couch. “It’s a shitty thing to do, I’ll tell you that,” she said. “I sti

290 - Are You Using Me?

ARAHShe padded toward the edge of the porch, her footsteps feather-light on the wooden planks as she strained to listen.“I can’t bear staying under the same roof as the enemy anymore,” Yadira said, her words stinging Arah’s chest. “The sooner the Captain gets his Awakening, the better.”Her breath caught. Awakening? Gildeon had never mentioned anything about that. What did it even mean? Was it like accessing the Dark Plane?“These things take time, Yadira,” Eitan replied.“How long?” the female lieutenant snapped. “Why isn’t it working yet? Captain said he’s already coupled with the sylph several times.”A flush crept up Arah’s neck. The word ‘coupled’ may have sounded clinical in Earthland, but the implication landed clearly. But why would Gildeon share stuff about their sex life with his comrades?“Even Capt
