9 Chapters

Chapter 1

The searing pain of the sun still burned deep in my consciousness.I opened my eyes. I was floating in the grand hall of the castle, right beside my three brothers."Clara, how are you feeling?"Damien's gentle voice drifted over.I looked down, and my soul fractured.My cold, stoic eldest brother was gently helping Clara onto the sofa. Those eyes once held a tenderness saved only for me. Now, they were filled with anguish for another girl.Clara was pale, her hand resting over her heart. She looked so fragile a light breeze could knock her over."Much better, Damien." Her voice was barely a whisper. "My heart condition flared up again. It's an old problem. I should have told you all sooner.""Don't say that," Ethan knelt beside her at once, touching her forehead. "It's our fault. We didn't protect you."Julian brought her a glass of water from the bar, holding it to her lips. "Slowly now. Don't rush."My soul began to tremble as I watched my three brothers dote on Clara, so careful, s

Chapter 2

Clara's tears fell like perfect pearls."Brothers, please don't be too hard on her," she whispered, her voice trembling, which only made her look more pitiful. "I'm sure it was just a silly prank. She didn't mean to hurt me."Her words were fuel to the fire.Damien's face darkened instantly."A prank?" His voice was ice-cold with disappointment. "You're too kind, Clara. She knew about your condition. This wasn't a prank.""Exactly!" Ethan's fists clenched, his eyes burning with rage. "We knew she was selfish. We never imagined she was vicious enough to turn on her own family!"My soul recoiled at his words.Vicious? Jealous?Ethan, have you forgotten?During your world tour, a rival clan ambushed you with silver-laced weapons.I didn't even think. I threw myself in front of you and took the blow that would have killed you.You held my bleeding, powerless body and cried, telling me I was the most important person in your life, the sister you would die to protect.Did you forget that pro

The hallway to the top floor felt colder than ever.My soul trailed silently behind my three brothers, watching their angry backs. Every step they took felt like it was crushing my shattered heart.Clara had been left downstairs to "rest." It was just the four of us now.Three living brothers. One dead sister.The observatory door came into view.That heavy, black metal door. It used to be my favorite place.As a child, I’d watch the stars with my brothers from there, listening to them tell ancient vampire legends.Now, it was my tomb."Lilith!" Damien's voice echoed down the hall. "Get out here!"Silence from within."I know you're in there!" Ethan stepped forward, his voice hot with fury. "Stop playing dead in there! Do you think you can just hide from the consequences?"Still nothing.Julian leaned against the wall and let out a disappointed huff."She probably snuck out. The second she has to take responsibility for something, she runs. She'll never grow up."I floated beside them,

Chapter 4

Moonlight spilled like liquid silver through the open doorway, flooding the observatory.The darkness vanished, and everything was laid bare.My soul trembled as I drifted closer, desperate to block my brothers' view.But I could do nothing.In the center of the floor was a small pile of fine, black ash.Next to it lay a blackened ring—my family signet, the one I never took off, with its ruby that marked the Blackwood bloodline.Julian saw it first.Julian was an architect. A thought struck him—the observatory's dome. Last week's maintenance report had mentioned something…But he crushed the thought as quickly as it came.Impossible.Absolutely impossible."Another one of Lilith's pranks," he said, his voice dry. He was the first to look away. "She’s always pulling these childish stunts for attention."Ethan stepped closer.The scorched smell was stronger here, tinged with something he knew but refused to name.The stench of death.He was a creature of the night. He knew that smell all

Chapter 5

The air in the great hall was suffocating.The guards returned one by one, each with the same report: nothing.Damien stood before the fireplace, his expression growing darker by the minute.He refused to admit the terrible seed of doubt that was beginning to sprout in his heart."Keep searching!" he roared. "Every corner of this castle! She has to be hiding somewhere!"But as time ticked by, a shared unease crept into all three of them.Ethan paced restlessly. Julian stood frozen, his eyes vacant.Clara sat on the sofa, feigning concern, but her eyes glittered with triumph."Maybe…" she began softly, "Lilith really did leave?""Impossible!" Damien shot back. "The blood curse covers the entire estate. She couldn't have escaped!"But his own voice held a tremor he couldn't hide.Suddenly, a glint appeared in Damien's eyes."I have a way to force her out."He strode to his desk and picked up a special communication crystal."If she's really alive, she'll need magical artifacts to sustain

Chapter 6

The name 'Moon Shard' echoed in Damien’s mind.The unease grew, a suffocating feeling that some vital truth was clawing its way to the surface.Why would Lilith give away something that could save her?The question was too loud to ignore."Reconnect to the council," Damien said, his voice hoarse. "Get me the High Scribe."Ethan and Julian stared at him."Brother, what more are you looking for?" Julian asked."I want the whole truth," Damien said, his eyes burning with a dangerous light. "About the 'Moon Shard.' About why Lilith gave it up."The crystal lit up again, connecting to the council's inner sanctum."Lord Blackwood," a more authoritative voice said. "This is Silas, the High Scribe.""I need you to unseal all of Lilith Blackwood's records," Damien's tone left no room for argument. "Her power levels, item usage, and… her sacrifice records.""My lord, those are classified files…""I am the head of House Blackwood. Unseal them now!" Damien roared. "Or I will pull every last coin o

Chapter 7

A dead silence fell over the hall.The three brothers collapsed, utterly broken by the truth.Damien gripped his head, his body wracked with tremors.Ethan slumped against the wall, his eyes filled with despair.Julian fell to his knees, sobbing uncontrollably.They finally understood.The sister they had dismissed as "spoiled and difficult" was the one who had sacrificed her life to protect them.And they… they had personally pushed her over the edge."My lady…"Moses's trembling voice cut through the silence.The old butler stood in the doorway, holding a document, his eyes wet with tears."Sirs… there is something I must tell you…"Damien looked up numbly, his eyes vacant."What is it… Can anything be worse than this?"Moses approached and placed the file on the coffee table."This is last week's castle maintenance report… I was going to report it after the repairs were done, but now…"Damien mechanically picked up the document.It was a routine inspection report, with most items ma

Chapter 8

Clara was pinned to the floor, her eyes wide with terror.But Damien didn’t kill her. Not yet.His eyes held something far worse—the promise of a slow, agonizing revenge."Bring me her things," Damien ordered coldly. "All of them."The servants moved instantly.Soon, Clara’s phone, laptop, diaries, and other personal items were piled in the hall."No… please… don’t look at those…" Clara struggled, but the servants held her fast.Damien picked up her phone and began scrolling through it in front of everyone.The screen lit up with photos and chat logs.The first photo was from three days ago. Clara, lying in bed, pale but with a triumphant smirk. She was making a 'V' for victory sign. The caption read: "My acting's pretty good, right? The three idiots totally fell for it lol."Ethan’s fists clenched so tight his nails broke the skin.Damien kept scrolling, each image a new, unbearable truth."Look how worried they are about me~" — A photo of a 'weak' Clara, with Ethan's anxious form blu

Chapter 9

"Why?" Julian's voice was a raw, unrecognizable hiss. "Why would you do it?"He lunged forward, his hands wrapping around Clara's throat."What did Lilith ever do to you?! She gave you the best room! She gave you our mother’s jewels! She treated you like a sister!"Clara choked, her face turning purple.But even in her terror, a twisted glee sparked in her eyes."Why?" she gasped, blood and saliva dribbling from her lips. "Because I was jealous! I was jealous that she had everything!""Immense power, a noble bloodline, and the unconditional love of all three of you!""And me?" Clara's laugh was a shrill, insane shriek. "I was just a pathetic human! Why was she born with everything, while I had to beg for your scraps like a dog?!""So I had to destroy her! I had to watch her lose everything! I had to make you kill her with your own hands!""You venomous bitch!" Julian's hands tightened.But Clara just cackled with triumph."Venomous?" She glared at my three brothers, her eyes filled wit
