She hates me not only because we are both light mages but because she can feel that my magic is stronger than hers. “I’m sure you all know that there are two parts of the exam. First. You’ll have a duel or a battle against a mage with the same magic as you are. I will decide who will go against each other but like our light mages here…” everyone looked at us.

Damien’s grip tightened on her wrist. “Not alone,” he said. “I won’t be,” she answered. The sickly glow beneath the cracked circle pulsed again, brighter now, illuminating the underside of broken granite in warped shadows. It was not the clean silver of wolf magic. Not the burnished gold of ancient rites. It was something like moss left too long in darkness. Something that had learned to grow without light. The Council began shouting orders. “Reinforce the perimeter!” “Evacuate the lower levels!”

I thought he had not even heard me so I decided to open my mouth again but he added, “The pages of the book have worn out a little. But as I predicted the dark witch wanted to have a way to get to the altar. So yes, it might work.” Hope filled my heart when he said that but Jasper’s fingers closed around mine. “But you have to know that this is dark magic…corrupted and vile.

HIS DARKEST SHADE BOOK-THREE ~Prologue~ “Even if you end up hating me for it.” His tone was vicious. “I might scare you,” he continued, his gaze roaming over her trembling form, “but they are far worse—formidable, vicious… and willing to do whatever it takes to get what they want.” He gestured toward her. “Including you.” “Never.” She shook her head, her voice trembling but firm. “I’m not scared of your words.

She leaned in closer and closer till she was able to get hold of my lips with hers, teasing with wet kisses all over and rubbing her hands on my chest She let loose and pushed me down to the bed, I gave her an inquiry look. She walked up to the switch and put on the darkest light and for once I felt comfortable again in my own room She stood in a way the moonlight shimmered and bathed all her features, I could still see in the dark as she slowly took off her clothes...

“You always did like bad odds. Sorry Nyxios, I have orders.” Thalana uncoiled her whip, the gesture crackling with promise. “Even odds would bore us.” The guards stepped back, well-trained enough to avoid the crossfire of nobles. Valeska nodded once. The fight exploded. Heat and shadow rippled outward, turning the patch of garden into a furnace. Valeska’s fire magic swept in an arc; Nyxios smothered it with darkness, threads of shadow clawing at the flames and dimming them to red cinders. The resulting shock wave cracked the flagstones under foot.

“But there is something else.” “What is it?” “When I sense your magic, I wanted to be around you. Surrounded by you. Intaking your darkness. Swallowing it whole.” “Oh.

The pleasure builds, a sweet, insistent pressure, and then- A warmth spreads through her, starting in her core and radiating outward. It's not just heat. It's light. A soft glow at first, pulsing beneath her skin, then brighter, spilling between them like golden honey. It illuminates the room, casting Damien's face in sharp relief, his dark eyes wide, his lips parted in awe.

I couldn’t deal with my tutor being shocked at how fast I manage to finish my work, I want to learn about magic. “Y-Yeah… Magic.” My tutor cleared his throat as he gained control of his expression again. “Aurelia, you know that your magic is based around the darkness.
