Kaelen's expression shifted immediately, his brows furrowing. "Now?" "Yes, Your Highness. His messenger said it's urgent. “I’m guessing the occurrence of today has reached his ears.” I watched the exchange from my position on the floor, Ruby still nestled comfortably on my head. The tiny dragon had made herself quite at home, and I can’t complain, as her warm body radiating a gentle heat was surprisingly pleasant. "Fine." Kaelen sighed, running a hand through his dark hair. "Tell him I'll be there shortly." Kelvin nodded and disappeared as quickly as he had come. Kaelen turned to me, his gaze traveling from my now glowing feathers to little Ruby snuggling on my head. "You're coming with me?” "To see the king? Like this?" I gestured to my entire owl-dragon situation. "I look like a Christmas decoration that got attacked by a glitter factory." "First of all, I don't know what a Christmas is. An owl slang? Second, you look exactly like what you are, an owl who somehow tamed the Cal

Prince Kealen’s povI stormed through the palace corridors, my boots striking the marble floor with enough force to crack the stone. Or at least, that's what it felt like. The guards I passed quickly averted their eyes, stepping aside to press themselves against the walls which was smart of them as I was in no mood for pleasantries.“You will go to the vampire lands as my representative."My father's words echoed in my mind, each word feelings like a barbed arrow sinking deeper into my chest."It is an honor, Kaelen. A chance to prove yourself worthy of the crown."An honor. As if I was born yesterday and couldn't see through his thinly veiled scheme.I rounded the corner toward my private chambers, my hands clenched into fists at my sides. The vampire clans had been our enemies for centuries. Their hatred for us, the royal wolves ran deep, older than our kingdoms, older than the very blood that flowed through our veins and made us shifters. And now my father wants to send me, his pow

Amelia’s povThe first thing I heard was a soft voice, so soft that for several seconds, I wasn't even sure it was real."Amelia."I frowned, twitching my closed eyelids.There was something deeply wrong with me.I tried to open my eyes but it feels like my eyelids are glued together.What the heck must have happened to me?I tried again to pry them open again but it’s still stuck."Amelia."There it was again.A gentle voice, almost like someone speaking from the other side of a thick wall and not wanting others to hear."Amelia, can you hear me?"I wanted to answer.Unfortunately, my mouth appeared to have resigned from its position.I couldn't move.Couldn't feel.Couldn't even tell whether I was lying down or floating."Where am I?" I finally managed to think.The moment the thought formed, I felt my mind get clearerI blinked and immediately regretted it.“What the heck? Vivi, is this some joke?”Heck no, I’m not floating like some circus balloon right?I looked down, Or at least,

Prince Kaelen's POVI had been pacing for what felt like an forever. Aldric had just finished preparing whatever stuff he would be needing, arranging his vials and herbs in a circle around the bed. I blink a tear away as my gaze met with Amelia and Ruby laying motionless. The sight of seeing them that way was making feel a kind of pain in my chest, as each shallow breath they took is a reminder of how close they were to slipping away entirely."Your Highness," Aldric called my attention, his voice a bit hoarse. "I need you to lie down beside them. The transfer will work best if you are in physical contact with both of them."I nodded and dragged myself toward the bed, my legs feeling strangely numb beneath me. This was the right choice. It had to be. Amelia looks like an ordinary owl but she feels special in ways I can’t describe. She had saved my life, and now again, paying the price for my dumb brother’s treachery.I so much want to punch his stupid face but this first.I climbed on

Prince Kealen's pov!“Eliza? Is that really you?”They broke apart immediately, both scrambling for cover. Eliza's face was flushed, her hair disheveled and her eyes wide with shock. Theron looked furious, his body tensing as he reached for a robe."Kaelen!" he snarled. "What the hell do you think you're doing?"I couldn't speak. I couldn't breathe. All I could do was stare at Eliza, she really had been with him. She really rejected me for him."Kaelen," Eliza said, her voice trembling. "What are you doing here?""What am I doing here?" I finally managed, my voice barely above a whisper. "Is that really what you should be asking me, Eliza? So this is it? You were for real when you said you hated me… gosh I can’t believe my eyes. You must have hated me so much, is that not why you are celebrating with my dear brother after trying to curse me? You must feel happy to think of me dying soon uh?”Theron laughed, "stop trying to be funny, little brother? Why would I need to add more curses
