All Chapters of Caught in Between Lust and Desires: Chapter 221 - Chapter 230

🖱️Jayden🖱️If someone had asked me a month ago what my life at the academy would look like this semester, I probably would have said something dramatic like constant danger, enemies hiding behind every corner, and the Supreme Council breathing down my neck every single day.Instead, life had turned into something completely different.Exhausting.Not because someone was trying to kill me every five minutes, but because my schedule had somehow become ridiculous.Training sessions early in the morning, lectures that dragged on forever, endless reading assignments, strategy lessons Victor insisted I take seriously, and then the extra training Sammy kept adding whenever he felt like my control was slipping again.By the end of most days my brain felt like it had been squeezed dry.And the weirdest part of everything was the silence.No one had targeted me since that first lecture at the start of the semester.Not one attack.Not one suspicious incident.Even the academy council hadn’t c

🖱️Sammy🖱️If someone had told me a few months ago that the terrifying vampire king Victor would be the one planning romantic get away, I would have laughed in their face and asked what kind of nonsense story they were reading.Victor was many things.Brilliant.Dangerous.Manipulative when necessary. Annoyingly calm during situations that should stress normal people out.But romantic date planner?That had definitely never crossed my mind.Yet here I was, standing in the middle of a glowing forest clearing somewhere outside the academy, staring at what Victor had somehow managed to put together in what looked like a ridiculous amount of effort.Soft floating lights hung in the air like tiny stars. A large blanket was spread across the grass with pillows scattered everywhere.There was actual food on the blanket, which already shocked me because Victor was the type of person who usually forgot to eat whenever he got busy with work.And Jayden…Jayden was standing beside me staring at

🖱️Victor🖱️I’ve always known time is a cruel enemy, but nothing prepared me for the way it felt when I realized how little of it I actually had left. Every heartbeat with them suddenly felt like it could be the last one I would ever get to share. And right now, wrapped between Jayden and Sammy, I was desperate to make every second count, to imprint my love into their skin, their hearts, and their souls. I feel like only this two will remember me when I’m gone. I have forced myself to sleep in the middle today because I want to feel shielded for the last time in life.I watched Jayden sleep first, his chest rising and falling in a rhythm so gentle it made my heart ache. His hair had fallen over one eye, and when I brushed it back with the tip of my fingers, I felt something inside me tighten. The thought that soon I might not be here to see that hair brush aside, to see his eyes flutter open and smile at me, made me want to hold him closer than I ever had.Sammy was curled beside him

🖱️Victor🖱️ “Vampire king, welcome to the panel.” The voice that greeted me carried the kind of calm confidence that only people who believed themselves untouchable usually had. I walked into the circular chamber slowly, the sound of my footsteps echoing across the polished black floor as the large doors behind me shut with a quiet final click that almost felt symbolic. So this was it. The heart of the Supreme Council. The room was massive, designed like an ancient senate hall, with a large round table placed in the center and tall windows stretching all the way to the ceiling. Sunlight filtered through the glass but somehow the room still felt cold, like the warmth refused to stay inside these walls. Ten people were already seated around the table. I took the empty seat they had clearly prepared for me and leaned back slightly while studying them carefully. To be honest… I was surprised. My whole life the Supreme Council had been spoken about like they were ancient gods who

🖱️Sammy🖱️ I tried so hard not to cry. Goddess knows I tried. But the tears kept coming anyway. They slipped down my face quietly at first, then faster, like my body had completely ignored the command my brain kept giving it to stop. I wiped my face roughly with the back of my hand and stared at the ground again, hoping maybe if I blinked enough times the scene in front of me would somehow change. It didn’t. The smell of burnt stone and smoke still filled the air. The massive building that once stood proudly in the middle of the council grounds was nothing but a destroyed skeleton now. The walls had collapsed inward, the windows were shattered, and everything inside looked like it had been swallowed by hell itself. Fire had done its job well. Too well. Around the ruins were the remains of bodies that the rescue teams had already tried to collect. Most of them were nothing but burnt bones and ash at this point. I stared at them without blinking. My chest tightened again. So
