Blades Of Light And Shadow Book 2 Novels & Stories

I looked back at the pages of the book, wrapping myself more closely in the gray scarf Oliver had given me for Christmas. However, I was not allowed to return to the land depicted in the story from my book, because I sensed a strangely familiar aura that was getting closer and closer to our property. My first thought was mother, because the structure of the aura was very similar, but a few details did not match. I put the book on the table and lifted the blanket from my lap, setting it aside, before giving Oliver a meaningful look. He must have sensed the aura as well, as was already taking Alex in his arms and then walking towards the gazebo, where Oliver sat him down on the bench next to m

“What exactly do you think I am?” Nick looked away from her, he took in a gulp of air, “A Shadow Dweller, someone who can see both good and evil in people.” he said looking down at her hands. “Your hands are turning purple, so it's happening. When you come of age, you'll have to make a choice. Everyone does.”

Light fractured across my vision—gold, blue, violet—and I could taste metal on my tongue. He stepped closer, lifting a blade made of smoke and fire. The air around it hissed, dripping molten shadow. “It’s mercy,” he said. “To take you with me, before you unravel them all.” The world narrowed to the burning tip of that blade. And then—something in me snapped. The fear inverted. It became something sharp and blinding, an instinct older than my name. Light erupted from my palms, pure and violent. It wasn’t gentle sunlight—it was celestial fire, holy and ravenous. The dream shattered at its touch, the walls of the scriptorium splintering into shards of gold and ink.

She saw villages burning, families torn apart, and the Shadow Order’s dark dominion spreading across the land. But she also saw Kane - standing over a broken, bloodied body. The image shifted, and she realized it wasn’t her. It was someone else, someone from his past. Her heart ached, but she pushed the vision aside. The Light Stone around her neck pulsed with warmth, grounding her. “You won’t win,” she whispered, her voice steady. “Not while I’m here.” Summoning the Light Stone’s power, she forced her energy into the Shadow Stone, the two forces colliding in a violent explosion of light and dark.

, she embarked on a drive, venturing several miles away from home. As she ventured into unfamiliar territory, she came across a bar she had never visited before. Disguised in her attire, she entered the establishment, hoping to find solace and clarity amidst the chaos of her thoughts. Taking a seat at the bar counter, she began consuming shots of alcohol, one after another. The bartender, observing her excessive intake, grew concerned, yet he continued to fulfill her orders. Meanwhile, a tall, fair, and handsome man with an impressive physique, one of the bartender's colleagues, found himself captivated by Natasha's beauty as she consumed more and more alcohol. He marveled at her apparent co

“You think you’re the only one?” “You wound me, Delia,” Gray chuckles. She slaps his arm playfully, letting him know it's time to get serious. He straightens up, as all signs of amusement snap from his face in a split second and holds still while she goes to work on the chain in his hands. She places both of her hands a few inches above the metal and whispers some incantation until a low blue glow can be seen from underneath her palms. When the glow fades she moves her warm copper brown hands and sighs.

I catch Flavius by the hand just as he stumbles, not used to the dark. My eyes close as light begins to fill the dark cave. I bring my arm forward, blocking the bright torch light.

This time, I didn’t flinch. The book flared in my hands. Light, bright and white, erupted from it, washing over the forest floor. The shadows were erratic as if it as in pain, if that was even possible. It was twisting and writhing, trying to retreat. The figure screamed too, its voice a mixture of rage and fear. “You cannot—she is not ready—” But the light didn’t stop. It surged through me, through the ground, through the forest itself. And then—silence.

Her hands glowed brighter than ever, golden light colliding with the darkness in a blinding surge. But she knew, deep down, she couldn’t hold it forever. The twins’ energy was growing beyond her control… and the shadow was not finished. Elena’s scream ripped through the battlefield as golden light and darkness collided. The twins’ energy exploded outward in a terrifying crescendo. The forest around them shook violently. Both Damien and Zephyr were thrown back, sliding across the ground. And through it all, the shadow stood tall, its eyes burning into her soul. Elena realized — this was only the beginning.
