Aether X Mona Novels & Stories

, Erica mumbled, slouching back in the seat. "Hm?" "He never told me the consequences of rejection", she said in a clipped tone. "I also found out that my power is Aether and not air", she added. "Aether?" Xavier repeated confusedly. "Yes. Apparently, I can fuse two elements together", she briefed as she glanced at Xavier who looked quite impressed. "And your aura detection?" Xavier queried making Erica chuckled. "Aura detection? Xavier, am I a machine?" Erica feigned a glare which was promptly ignored.

"I am Alexander and you are lia?" "Idalia." I corrected. "Idalia Bianchi." "Ah, the infamous Bianchi." I laughed, "I would not say that exactly." I noticed my hands were still in his, "sorry." I dropped my hands. He shrugged, "I don't mind holding a beautiful woman's hand. Especially yours." "Hmmn you're smooth. But I have to tell you though I am seeing someone." "Thank God." He breathed out a sigh of relief, "no offense it would be my pleasure to be with a woman as beautiful as you but I do have someone I am also seeing."

“A car?” Jasper nodded. “Yes.” I swallowed and looked up, confused. “But this isn’t—this isn’t a normal registration.” Dickson leaned back, arms crossed. “Because it’s not a normal car.” Peter finally spoke. “It’s a customized Tesla Aether-X.” I blinked. “The Aether-X isn’t on the market.” “It won’t be,” Tracy said softly. “This one was built privately.” I looked back down at the documents, my fingers tracing the printed specifications.

I have lived for almost eight years without a single companion and very soon, I'll get one who would do everything with me, from breathing to dying with me. I wouldn't have to be lonely anymore and I would have someone to defend me and someone to plan revenge with. But now I need to focus on planning my revenge against Alpha Damien even though I couldn't compete with him physically, I know the exact herbs to get to temper with his system. Alpha Damien is a type A blood group and I know exactly what he is allergic to. It was night time already and some flowers will be hard to identify by the ordinary eye but not to mine.

And then, we saw it. Rising out of the red sea was a continent of jagged, brown peaks and endless, wind-swept dunes. It was the Aetheria. It didn't have trees. It didn't have domes. It had Iron. Massive, steam-powered towers rose from the coast, their gears turning with a rhythmic, soul-crushing clack-clack-clack. Unlike Malakai’s machines, these were ancient, rusted, and covered in the same silver-logic runes we had seen in the Sunken Shrines.

"Revenge, my dear. Pure, unadulterated revenge. Seraphina wronged me long before she ever crossed your path." Orion frowned. "But what makes you think she won't double-cross you? She's known for her cunning and deceit." Malachi's voice grew cold, "Because this time, I have something she desperately wants." He extended his hand, revealing a small, shimmering vial filled with a liquid that seemed to pulse with life. "The Essence of Aether." Liora gasped. The Essence of Aether was a legend — a potion rumored to amplify a person's powers tenfold.

“You’re not serious.” “Oh, I am,” Melinda said, rising to her feet. “It’s called an Aetherstar. Its power is beyond imagination even the Thrones would not be able to stand against it. And only you can summon it, Selene. Only the Aetherborn can command such creation. It will obey your every word, punish whom you wish, and destroy what you will. And it will never harm its maker.” Selene looked down at her trembling hands, then back at her friend. “You really think it could work?”

During the meal, when Yana's friends arrived, they greeted them politely and then called Yana away. Nadia glanced in the direction where she had just seen Sonia, then gossiped with Candice, "How come Sonia is having a meal with Xavier? Didn't you say that he's not a good person?" Candice casually replied, "Perhaps. It’s been four or five years since the cooperation between Horizon Holdings and Aether Corporation." "Even if we don't know about that, the rest is hard to say. Didn't you see Xavier holding flowers in his hands?" Nadia gloated, "I think Alex should feel threatened by now."

Everywhere they looked, they saw signs of life in forms both familiar and otherworldly. Lunastra Aetheria, who eventually materialized into a semi-corporeal being, was a presence both ethereal and comforting. Her eyes held the wisdom of eons, and her voice carried the serene cadence of the cosmos. She spoke of the moon's eternal cycle, of the delicate balance between life and death, and of the intricate dance that connected Earth to the celestial realm.

“Believe me, Aera is enough to me. And allow me to express my gratitude for offering an alliance to Triton, Luna Aena of the Ether. We need all the alliance we can seek for the upcoming war.” Because of that information, I stared at Aena in disbelief. The Ether pack was known to be gallant and rich in the North, in line with Triton and other packs. It was unlike them to risk their pack for a war we are bound to lose. It doesn't make sense at all.
