Chapter 70: TWO REALITIES

ZARA’S POVI woke up gasping. Not screaming. Not panicked. Just… awake.My eyes snapped open to a ceiling I recognized too well, the academy infirmary. White lights. White sheets. White silence. The kind that pretends nothing is wrong.My body felt wrong. Not injured. Not weak.Too quiet.Something was different...Wait...Was I living the same day again?I felt....Like something inside me had gone still after years of screaming.I sat up slowly. No restraints. No guards. That alone should’ve terrified me.Instead, my pulse stayed steady.That scared me more.“Zara.” Kai’s voice.Low. Careful. Like he was afraid the wrong tone might shatter me. I turned my head.He was sitting beside the bed, elbows on his knees, hands clasped together so tightly his knuckles were white. His hair was damp, like he’d run his hands through it one too many times. His scent hit me instantly...ozone, pine, heat. Home. My chest tightened.“How long?” I asked.His head lifted sharply. Relief flashed across

Chapter 71: The Celebration of Teeth

KAI’S POVIf Dr. Voss wanted this to feel like a celebration. She should have tried less.The hall glittered with warm lights and gold-draped tables, music humming softly through hidden speakers, laughter echoing just a little too loud for a building this empty. Wolves clustered in loose groups, cups in hand, smiles fixed like masks. Every single one of them was pretending this was normal.It wasn’t.The wards beneath my skin itched the moment I stepped fully inside. Old magic. New tech. Something layered beneath both, like a third presence listening from behind the walls. Zara felt it, too.Her spine was straight, chin lifted, eyes sharp as glass. She looked calm to anyone watching, but the bond told a different story. Electricity skittered through it, restless, hungry. The devourer wasn’t roaring tonight. It was watching.Dr. Voss stood at the centre of it all, dressed in ivory and gold, silver hair pinned perfectly in place. She looked pleased. That alone made me want to tear this

Chapter 72: What the Teeth Were Made For

ZARA’S POVThe room Dr. Voss led us into did not feel like a room.It felt like a throat kind of.The doors sealed behind us with a sound too soft to be mechanical, too final to be magic. Light bled from the walls in slow, pulsing bands, ivory threaded with gold. The air tasted metallic, sharp at the back of my tongue, like a storm holding its breath.Mira stood to my left, hands clenched at her sides. She was pale but steady, jaw locked with the kind of resolve that came from knowing there was no way out and choosing not to panic anyway.Kai stood to my right.I felt him before I saw him, his presence a constant pressure through the bond, protective and controlled, like a blade kept sheathed only by willpower. His face was calm. Too calm. The General Alpha mask was firmly in place.Dr. Voss moved ahead of us, heels clicking softly against the glossy floor. The sound echoed longer than it should have.“Welcome,” she said pleasantly, as if we were guests instead of sacrifices. “This i

Chapter 73: The fault lines

Kai's POV I didn't know what Dr. Voss was playing at. A whole celebration for what? Am announcement for what? The separation. I didn't know what she was looking for, and that terrified yet empowered me. She was playing some sort of game with Zara, yet it felt like she was pulling through my strongholds. "Kai." I heard Mira call out to me.I had actually forgotten that she was here with us. It just happened that when Zara was around, everything about me seemed to vanish till it was just me and her left."Mira." I responded."What is really going on?" She questioned."Do you have an idea as to what Dr. Voss really wants from us?""She just wants to break us. Once that's achieved, every other thing can follow through." I said."It seems we're on a big heirachy." "It seems that way to me too."Mira studied my face like she was trying to read a language she’d only just discovered existed.“Break you how?” she asked quietly.I didn’t answer immediately. Because the truth wasn’t something

Chapter 74: The First Cut

KAI’S POVThe blade screamed before it struck.Not audibly, not to the room, but to something older inside me. The wards under my skin detonated into heat as the air split, and instinct tore control from thought.“Zara!” Too late.The blade wasn’t metal. It looked like obsidian glass, curved and narrow, veins of silver light pulsing through it like a heartbeat. It emerged from nowhere, no summoning circle, no warning glyph, just there, sliding out of empty space and into flesh.Mira’s flesh.She didn’t even have time to scream.The blade punched through her lower ribs from behind, erupting from her chest in a spray of blood and light. Not red. Silver. Her eyes went wide, mouth opening in a soundless gasp as the weapon drank.Because that’s what it was doing.Drinking.I lunged forward, catching Mira as her knees buckled. She was too light. Far too light for someone who’d been standing and breathing a heartbeat ago. Her blood steamed against my hands, glowing faintly as if the blade ha

Chapter 75: A day off

ZARA'S POV Yesterday was scary. I can't recall what had happened aside from being selected for the stupid game, Dr. Voss had set for us. It had messed with my mind, that was for sure because I was having missing gaps in my memory. Mira wasn't in the room when I woke up. Her bed had been arranged so neatly that I wondered if she had even slept on the bed as of last night.I got up from my bed quickly, dressed it before going to the bathroom to freshen up. After which, I tried reaching out to her through her mind link. She wasn't responding, and that got me worried."Mira." I called over and over again, yet I got nothing.I stepped out of the room in black leggings with a red sweater. The cool breeze of the morning hit me. I felt a pointer on my body. It passed just as quickly as I had seen it."What was that?" I thought.I ignored it for a moment as I tried to figure out where I would be heading to that morning. "Zara...." Luna called out to me excitedly."Hey Lu..." I responded.She

Chapter 76: Borrowed Light

KAI’S POVThe cafeteria smelled like burnt coffee and forced normalcy.That was the academy’s speciality....pretending. Pretending we weren’t being watched. Pretending yesterday hadn’t carved something new into our bones. Pretending we were still just students who worried about grades and sparring schedules instead of survival.I spotted them before they spotted me.Zara sat curled sideways on a bench, one knee pulled up, fingers wrapped around a mug she hadn’t touched. She looked calmer than she had any right to be, too calm, like a lake that hadn’t decided yet whether it wanted to freeze or flood. Luna was across from her, talking animatedly with her hands, clearly filling the silence with noise on purpose. And Mira....Mira looked tired in a way sleep couldn’t fix.Her shoulders were slumped, eyes distant, like she’d taken a long walk and forgotten where she was supposed to stop.I slid my tray onto the table without announcing myself. “You know,” I said.“If this is an interventi

Chapter 77: WHAT HE LEFT BEHIND

ZARA’S POVSomething was wrong.I felt it before the academy bells shifted into evening mode before the corridors quieted and the lights dimmed to their artificial dusk. It slid through the bond like a blade wrapped in velvet yet controlled, furious, familiar.Kai.I stopped mid-step outside the west wing, fingers tightening around the strap of my bag. The air felt heavier, like the building itself was holding its breath. His presence wasn’t panicked. That would’ve been easier.This was restrained violence.“Kai,” I whispered through the bond.At first, nothing. Then... I felt it.... pure pressure. Like his shields tightening too fast, locking me out not because he didn’t want me there, but because he didn’t trust what might spill if I got in.That scared me more than silence.I turned without thinking, feet already carrying me toward the General Alpha dorms. I didn’t bother checking if anyone was watching. Let them watch. Let them report. Let Dr. Voss added it to her collection of cu

Chapter 78: The Space Between Us

KAI’S POVNight at the academy never meant darkness.It meant quiet surveillance.The lights outside my window had dimmed to their low-glow setting, throwing long silver bars across the floor. The wards hummed softly, a constant reminder that even sleep here was conditional. I lay on my back, staring at the ceiling, feeling Zara through the bond like a steady heartbeat pressed against my ribs.She was awake.Not restless. Not afraid. Just… present.“You’re staring again,” her voice murmured inside my head.I smiled faintly. "You feel that, huh?""You get loud when you think too hard."she replied. "Your silence has weight."The door chimed softly before I could respond. A single knock. Controlled. Familiar.I was already sitting up when it slid open.Zara stepped inside like she belonged there in which she did, whether the academy liked it or not. She’d changed since earlier, loose black shirt, bare feet, hair falling around her shoulders like she hadn’t bothered fighting gravity ton

Chapter 79: JEALOUSY FLARED

KAI’S POVThe academy didn’t sleep after that.It pretended to.The corridors hummed with late-night energy, boots echoing too softly, doors sealing too quietly, eyes lingering half a second longer than usual. Whatever Zara felt in the bond wasn’t paranoia.We were being watched.Zara left before dawn.Not abruptly. Not angry. Just… deliberately. She slid out of my room while I was still half-awake, pressing a kiss to my shoulder that lingered long enough to feel like a decision rather than affection.“We’ll talk later,”she sent through the bond.That was never a good sign.By mid-morning, the academy had shifted into performance mode.Classes resumed. Training drills ran. Students laughed too loudly. And somehow, miraculously news travelled faster than wards.By the time I stepped into the east courtyard, I felt it.Attention.Not the wary kind. Not the fearful one. Something sharper. Calculated.“General Alpha.”I stopped.She was leaning against the fountain, long dark braid, acade
