Fantasy Gifts Blackwood Romane & Geschichten

after he said that I looked at Chris to see his reaction but he did not seem affected which assured me that maybe he no longer cared about the throne. "Why can't I copy one of the powers from the witches like mind control?" I asked him with curiosity on my face. "Apparently the other gift coper already copied mind control from Stella's grandma while they were fighting so it will have no effect on her. Only me and Caspian's powers are the only powers the gift coper does not have as we have never fought her." Caspian's father explained to me. "Ok but you still haven't told me what the powers are?"

She comforted me by telling me stories of my Aunt Violet and some of Lucien from when he was small. Lucien stubborn as ever refused to leave my site and Helga had to stomp her foot at him before he would even go sit outside. I had been scared about the pain but my crystals that Helga demanded I keep with me seemed to absorb the pain taking the brunt of it for me. Still, my mind ran wild with what if’s. Helga assured me she had seen it all saying that she had learned from the best. The best being Aunt Violet. Hunter Reid Blackwood was born as foretold during the full moon. As his cry echoed out through the raised windows the entire pack bowed down wherever they may be to show their respect. A

Blackwood announced, to my utmost surprise. I still had my eyes fixed on the mirror as I admired the beauty, there was no doubt this would cost over fifty thousand dollars in the market, and he made it for me? I was stunned for a moment, the sheer magnitude of the gift rendering my tongue unable to formulate words. My eyes, wide with surprise and disbelief, echoed the diamond's radiance. The air was dense with unspoken emotions, and time seemed to stand still. “So… What do you think?” Mr. Blackwood muttered, I could see the smile on his face from the mirror. This was really coming from his heart, but why??

The wolves obeyed instantly, releasing Eliana as she dropped to her knees, gasping as her bound hands hit the ground hard. “I’ve considered your words,” Blackwood said finally, his deep voice slow and measured. “And, I’ve deemed them wise enough. I will take the girl, consider her a peace offering from you.” His mouth curved into the faintest smirk. “I’ll do as I please with her, and for this, you are forgiven.” Peter’s head remained bowed, the relief on his face couldn't be seen, though the ease in his body gave it away. “But as for a weapon against Jace,” Blackwood continued, leaning back with a hint of satisfaction in his tone, “I won’t be needing one, I already have what I require.”

As I passed, I saw a delicate lace glove hanging from Damon's belt. Delia's. He was wearing her intimate things like a trophy. I drove away from the graveyard, making a special stop at the Night Market. I bought the most precious offerings for the Blackwood elders and for Caspian. Dragon's Blood Amber, Evernight Roses, Tears of the Stars… each one was priceless. When I arrived at the Blackwood castle, I ran into Damon at the entrance. He had straightened his clothes, but a fresh bite mark was still visible on his neck.

Books lined enormous shelves. And near the center of the room— a cradle stood carved directly from silver-black wood. Silence crashed through Eleanor’s body. The bond detonated beside her. Shock slammed through Alaric violently enough that she physically felt him stagger. “No.” The word left him instantly. Not rejection. Panic. The mountain dimmed uncertainly. Like Blackwood suddenly realized maybe it had overstepped. Eleanor stared at the cradle. The wood shimmered faintly with seal magic while protective runes glowed across its curved edges.

My name is written in perfect script: Zara Blackwood. My fingers tremble slightly as I break the seal and unfold the letter. Miss Blackwood, We are pleased to offer you a place at Blackwood Academy, a private boarding school for gifted students. Our campus, deep within the Ember Forest, provides a unique opportunity for young people like yourself to grow, learn, and thrive. Your term begins immediately.

"Only Ms. Blackwood could do this without prior warning. Consider it permitted." Mandy laughed and nodded, turning to look at the gift bag. Inside, wrapped in a fancy paper, was a velvet box with a beautiful, delicate diamond necklace. Beneath it was another box holding a stunning evening gown in a shade of deep emerald, with matching heels. But the gifts weren’t just for her. There were smaller boxes with a tiny suit and little dress shoes for Axel, and even a set of premium building blocks he had been wanting from a catalog. Her eyes kept getting wider. "Finn…" she breathed, truly at a loss for words.

“ So, what do you want?” “Well, to give you these.” Matthew bent down and grabbed the bag he had off the floor and showed it to Salj. “What is that?” “It’s blackwood.” Salj’s normally droopy eyes lightened up immediately. “Let me see.” He almost ran to grab the bag out of Matthew’s hands but Matthew stopped him. “Whoa there. Easy. These are really heavy, okay? And highly radiated with mana. Right now they’re wrapped in special clothing so it’s safe.”

"No, this is... this is the only thing I can give you..." "You still don't get it," I cut him off. "Did you think I would willingly crawl back inside if you replaced my cage with a gilded one?" "Do you think that if you just snap your fingers, I'm supposed to crawl back to you, grateful, just like I used to?" "I'm giving you the world, Eloise!" "No. You're using an empire to buy yourself a clear conscience." I turned to the large screen and pressed a button on the remote. "Since Mr. Blackwood mentioned the 'advantages' of being a pureblood, let me show you all something interesting."
