Acheron X Caelus Novels & Stories

It was echoing up from the stone chamber below, shaking the dust from the ceiling and vibrating through the soles of her boots. ​Thump. ​Thump. ​Thump. ​The Sleeper was syncing its pulse to hers. ​The Hollow Queen fell dead silent, completely crushed into submission by the rhythmic, deafening thunder of the awakening god. ​Lyra looked up at Cael, watching as his eyes dropped slowly from her face to stare directly at her chest. Beneath the torn fabric of her tunic, a thin, brilliant line of silver light had etched itself across her skin, forming a geometric symbol she had never seen, yet somehow instinctively knew.

Nerina lifted her trident. "Tides." Kael ignited his spear. "Flames." Elara called forth emerald vines. "Life." Seraphine turned the Hourglass. "Time." Astra summoned rivers of starlight. "The Cosmos." Finally... Caelum raised his restored sword. "Redemption." Seven pillars of celestial energy converged upon me. Moonfire erupted from the Crown of Luna. The Sword of Eclipse transformed again. Its silver blade became pure white. The Crystal's voice echoed once more.

"I knew your grandmother, you know. Queen Yasmin. I was young then, training to be a priestess. She used to come to the temple to pray." "What was she like?" "Strong. Fierce. Kind when she could be, ruthless when she had to be." The priestess smiled. "You look like her. Same eyes. Same stubborn chin." "Did she have this mark too?" "All the queens of House Rashad bore the Mark of the Warrior Moon. It appears on the firstborn daughter of each generation. Your mother had it. Your grandmother had it. And now you have it." "It's just gotten them killed. It'll get me killed too."

As if summoned by her words, the torches along the sanctuary walls extinguished at once. Darkness engulfed the room. A slow clap echoed through the shadows. “Very perceptive, Luna.” The voice wasn’t loud. It didn’t need to be. It crawled across the skin, cold and intimate, like something whispered directly into the mind. Aria turned. From the darkness stepped Elder Caelum. Or what was left of him. His eyes were hollow, glowing faintly with unnatural silver. Black veins traced his temples. The Prophet’s sigil burned openly on his palm.

The doorman announced, and the entire crowd followed the instruction which I failed to do. I scoffed at the title given to him and the announcer caught my reaction. I wasn’t going to bow. He is not in my list to give respect, let them take it as disobedience. They are going to kill me anyways. “Enters, Alpha Xavier Knight and the Heir of Seven territory Alpha Orion Knight.” The mention of Xavier made my ears turn into the direction of the gate and my jaw dropped into the depth of the ground. “Why isn't he dead?” Serena asked me when she saw him walking on two fine legs. She sneered in anger and her body trembled making her furious as ever.

Aria Flashback The steamy water cascades over my body as I tilt my head back under the shower stream, letting it soak my hair and run in rivulets down my skin. I close my eyes, simply existing in this quiet moment of warmth and solitude. That's when I sense him. That unmistakable presence that sets my nerves alight with a fierce longing. Callum. I open my eyes to find him watching me intently, his gaze burning with undisguised desire. His chiseled chest and powerful muscles are already bare, water beading on his skin. I can't help but rake my eyes over his body shamelessly.

he murmured. His original clan, the Red Maple Clan, resided in the Sunset Domain along the southern coast of the Dawnlight Continent. He had no knowledge of his Hunter Dragon Spider body’s location; from birth until now, the spider-mother had hunted for them, and their inherited memories offered no guidance. But he recognized this Crimson Alliance immediately. A dominant imperial power on the eastern side of Oclo Star, it stood alongside the Sunset Domain on the southeastern continent—a technological empire. This body was named Lancelot Terresis, a twelve-year-old Quebecois, just like Logo, attending middle school.

Naeria murmured ancient verses, Rowan unsheathed his blade, and Selene tightened her grip on Kael’s hand. Then, as the stars aligned, the Gate ignited. Silver light spiraled upward in twin beams—one warm and golden, the other dark and cool. They twisted together, forming an arch that pulsed with the heartbeat of the universe. Theron turned to Elira. “Are you ready?” She took a breath, eyes shimmering with everything they had gained—and everything they might lose. “Yes.” And together, bound by blood and fate, they stepped through. ---

Tristan said under his breathe with a huff. Lord Kys pulled out a bejeweled weapon from beneath his cloak and handed it to Trix. One jewel shone bright and reminded her off the one within her pocket. She gripped the hilt and attempted to open it but Lord Kys placed his hands over hers and shook his head. “Not here,” he whispered. “And for you young edor,” he said to Tristan, who stiffened comically. Trix’s eyes widened then narrowed. What was an edor? Was that his name? It was most definitely an odd one.
