Chapter 78When Elara saw his fingers tighten around the chain, her heart stopped. For a split second, the world went silent. She could already imagine the sound, the snap of metal, the pendant falling uselessly to the ground, the last piece of her mother gone forever.Her breath hitched painfully in her chest. “Please…” she whispered, her voice barely there.Varian’s eyes lingered on her face, unreadable. Then something shifted just slightly. His jaw tightened, and with an irritated click of his tongue, he straightened abruptly.Before she could even process what was happening, he flicked his wrist. The necklace flew through the air. Elara gasped and scrambled forward, catching it clumsily against her chest. She clutched it tightly, her fingers wrapping around the pendant as if afraid it would disappear again.A shaky smile escaped her lips, relief flooding her entire body. “Thank you,” she breathed, even though fear still trembled beneath her skin.Varian had already turned away. H

Seraphina kept talking as they walked, her voice echoing softly through the wide stone corridors. “…and then he had the nerve to say my wings weren’t symmetrical,” she scoffed. “Can you imagine? As if he even knows what fairy wings should look like.”Elara smiled faintly, nodding now and then, though her eyes were busy wandering around. The farther they walked, the more the air seemed to change. It felt thicker, warmer, almost alive.When they finally stepped into the training ground, Elara stopped walking. She gasped. This place was nothing like the general training ground she had seen before. The space was enormous, stretching far beyond what her eyes could measure. The ground shimmered faintly as if magic was woven directly into the stone. Tall pillars carved with ancient symbols stood at different corners, glowing softly. In the air, she could feel power, raw, heavy, and overwhelming.“This…” Elara whispered. “This is different.”Seraphina smi

CHAPTER 1: FORBIDDEN AROUSAL'And This is your Stepbrother'The word 'Stepbrother' hit Arianna like a ton of bricks. She frowned trying not to believe the jerk standing in front of her is now her stepbrother. the same jerk who had toyed with her heart years ago.He stood tall before her, his smirk deepening as he took in the pale expression on her face. "Stepbrother? Who? Him?" she managed to ask, trying to regain her composure."Yes. He goes by the name Jace. Do you know him from anywhere?" Miss Caroline, her mother, asked, looking at Arianna with deep curiosity.Arianna let out an awkward laugh, trying not to seem too suspicious. "No way. This is my first time seeing him," she quickly replied, attempting to brush off the tension, even as more hatred grew in her heart.She could vividly remember her high school days; he was a popular senior whom she had secretly crushed on. When he asked her to be his girlfriend, she was caught off guard. He seemed genuinely interested in her, which

CHAPTER 2: STILL CRAVE FOR HIMArianna shut her eyes, trying not to fall deeper into his trap. He was already taking control of her mind, body, and soul, which she hated, yet she couldn't stop herself from longing for more. How could she still feel something for this jerk who had broken her heart?"Stop it, Jace!" she forced herself to say, trying to regain her senses. He removed his hand from her pajamas, making her exhale loudly."Don’t lie to me. Don’t lie to yourself. You feel it every time you look at me. That ache do you think anyone else could satisfy it? No. You’ve always craved me, and you always will." Jace's voice dropped to a growl, each word vibrating through her.“I don’t care if they call you my sister. You’re not my blood.”Her breath hitched, panic and heat colliding in her chest.“I’ll destroy every man who touches you. I’ll tear apart this family if I have to. Your mother, my father, the whole illusion they built it means nothing.” His fing

CHAPTER 4: A CHALLENGE "Welcome to Fizzo Hostel, little Rebel," he said, his nasal voice barely above a whisper as he stood there. "What are you doing in my room? Why are you here and..." "No one ever asks me that. I go wherever I want and do whatever I need to," he replied with an air of arrogance, stepping closer to her. The voice in her head urged her to run far away from this psycho, but she ignored it. She hadn’t done anything wrong, and there was no reason to flee, so she stood her ground until he was right in front of her, slowly looking up to meet his gaze. "Don't come any closer. I warned you to stay away from me at school," she said, trying to block out the smell of smoke that clung to him. She couldn't stand it. "Yes, and?" he replied, his smirk widening as he moved in closer, their bodies almost touching. "Get away from me!" She pushed against his chest, but it felt like pushing against a wa
