Blackwater Academy Novels & Stories

I asked her, and her nervous fingers picked at her cuticles and her eyes never left the floor. “Yes, my queen. My father is Alpha Doug of the Black Blood Pack. He sent me to the Academy to gather information to tear down the academy and wanted to know why you were building it up. He didn’t exactly tell me what he was looking for. I was to gather any passwords, paperwork, or even conversations happening around here. Anything that I could get my hands on. He wouldn't accept that I was on the academy side and had no access to the main building. Nor did I have any reason to be on that side of the compound. We were told during orientation that we were to stay on the academy side of the compound.

Only this time, there was no Havoc jumping out to ward off danger as I run for the forest. Once I pass the tree line, a much larger version of the black wolf is there, waiting. I turn to go and have an enemy on either side and nowhere to run. The bigger of the two wolves shifts back to his human form. He’s massive, with long black hair and even darker eyes, a scar running along his jawline on the left side of his otherwise strangely handsome face. ‘This one is full of Evil’, Bella said as I backed up against the tree nearest where I stood, shifting myself.

This is a school purely for rich men. This academy is built for men. It breathes men. Every corner reeks of power, of legacy, of cruel ambition handed down through generations. These halls are lined with gilded portraits of male rulers, innovators, dictators—men who shaped the world with their iron will and razor-sharp minds. The boys here are trained to follow in their footsteps. Economics. Politics. Law. International strategy. Warfare. Linguistics. Sports. Negotiation. Technology. They are handed the knowledge of the world like it's their birthright.

The street lamps began to crumble just like they had done the day of the accident, the earth crumbling as the ground quaked. “Seems you could use a little help, little vamparina.” A masculine voice resonated in the air. Vamparina? There he stood, along with my parents, his eyes red, his black dreadlocks running down along his face, his muscles big, merging perfectly with his physique, his perfectly chiseled jawline with a black cloak on. “Blood!” They groaned. “Back to the underworld.” He said as he raised his hands. The air stood still, flame engulfing the creatures in a minute. Groans filled the air as they began to disintegrate into soot, flowing along with the wind.

Then Iris spoke quietly. “Subject numbers.” I opened my eyes sharply. “No.” Her expression didn’t change. “You weren’t treated like children there.” The horror in her voice told me everything. Alan turned dangerously still. “What exactly was Blackwater?” Iris hesitated. Then— “A private psychological development program.” Kai scoffed harshly. “That sounds like sanitized bullshit.” “It was.” Her voice hardened slightly now. “They experimented on emotional conditioning, trauma responses, attachment dependency—” “On children?” Alan snapped.

He looked like he was sitting through his own execution. "Good morning, students," Principal Morrison's voice boomed through the speakers. "I've called this assembly to share some wonderful news with all of you." My chest tightened. Wonderful news. "As you know, Blackclaw Academy has always been home to some of the most promising young wolves in our community. Today, I'm honored to announce the engagement of two of our finest students." The words hit me like a physical blow. I gripped the armrests of my seat so hard my knuckles went white.

The academy vanished. Rei found herself standing in a massive room filled with glowing threads. Thousands of them. Every thread represented an Alpha or Omega. She could feel them. Their emotions. Their fear. Their pain. Their lives. The Blackthorn network wasn't a machine. It was a prison made from people. Rei saw children. Students. Soldiers. Families. People who had never agreed to be part of it. She whispered, "I can free them." A voice answered. "Yes." Rei turned.

I sniffled, rubbing the lonesome tear threatening to fall off her face. Instantly, Hilda held my hands in hers and warned with concern, “Kate, you can’t go to Umbra Academy. They’ll shred you alive over there.” “I know, Hilda. But there’s nothing I can do. My fate is sealed.” I said with defeat, lowering my head. Umbra Academy was a school for the elite of shifters and witches where they were taught how to rule and steer ahead in this power-hungry world. Although it seemed like a promising place, bullying and murder were often found to take place on its campus.

She placed her head into his black fur. They went plunging into the empty dark hole of the waterfall's cliff. "King Austin!" shouted Grump. "What happened?" asked Prince Brayden, waking up from his passing out. "They fell into to the Black Water." "What? What does that mean?" "It's a death place. A place where no one have ever escape from before.” “What?” “Legend says once fallen, no one can ever get out." King Leonardo gasped in shocked and fear. He didn't know such a place existed before. This is the first time he have ever heard of it.

Finally, we arrive at Dead Man’s Woods. Wade pulls over into the muddy parking area. I look outside the window, it’s pitch black and thick with fog. “Well, if this isn’t spooky, I don’t know what is.” Wade says as he turns off the ignition. “I hope you have big torches Wade, the fog is really thick,” Penny says worryingly. “Yeah, yeah I have everything including 2 tents.” He says with a smile. “What?! Tents! Why do we need tents?!” I shout.
