And she intended to. The match was set for two weeks later. Magic veils across the Border buzzed with the news. Every hallway, every mess hall, every training square— “Two dual-wielding mages go head-to-head.” That line stopped me in my tracks. 'Dual wielding?' I blinked. Scanned the scroll again. And then I saw it. Jade Ishola: Fire magic and strength augmenting magic. My chest tightened. It wasn’t another magic. It was me. My inner chi. My beast strength. The primal energy I’d learned to control—not cast.

“Everything else, though? I’ll take. You’ll come crawling to me, Xander. Begging for my hand.” I moved. I didn’t think...but my hand was halfway to her throat. But she vanished before I touched her. Vanished. Into thin air. The air shifted again. Foul, unnatural. It reeked of magic. Witches. I turned to Xander, eyes wide. He nodded once, his jaw tight. He smelled it too. “We need to call a council meeting,” he said, voice grave. "Right now."

"This will cling to your spirit. It will turn away ill intentions." Rita closed her eyes, letting the heat of the flames and the chill of the night sink into her bones. The school rose from the mist like a castle from a dream—towering stone walls, arched windows glowing with inner light, and an iron gate etched with runes that hummed as they passed through in Gogo's truck. Rita’s skin prickled. The air here crackled, alive with magic. Rita had never felt anything like it. "Wow," she breathed.

Nick added. Madchen lowered her head in embarrassment, knowing everyone knew her deepest darkest secrets. “You have nothing to be ashamed of,” Drago still had her face in her hands, “You survived, pure as the day you were born, stronger than you know. Somehow you shielded yourself, Madchen, tell me that isn’t magic, it may not be sparks flying from your fingers, but it is magic, nonetheless.” ‘My son is right,” Adriana agreed, “ I think you only needed love and encouragement to heal yourself the other night.”

A vein seems to rupture on Lamia's otherwise calm and collected face, and I resist the urge to laugh. Spitting the enemy in the face when they got the upper hand—yup, that would be my Raven. "You little piece of shit!" Lamia hisses into Raven's face and squeezes her snake tail tighter around the human girl. The sight is enough to make me shift into my proper form—a demonic dragon from the most bottomless pit of hell. Debris falls from the wall as I charge forward, ruining the entire ballroom with my wingspan. A heaven full of stars becomes visible as I turn what once was a room into a junkyard. I couldn't care less.

I remained silent during the helicopter ride. According to the strange words that suddenly appeared in my vision, I had to continue living a numb and obedient life for the next two days before I died. If I followed its instructions, it would reward me with a second chance at life. It wasn't difficult to follow its orders. I had already suffered so much. It didn't make much of a difference if I died now or two days later. A tall figure blocked the helicopter's exit right after I got off.

LYRA "I don't trust her Damien. I need to lure her down to get to Magnus, she's gullible enough to think I'm stupid enough to fall for her tricks" Sage says through his phone call My lips quivered as I peeped through his room standing like a statue as his words reached my hearing. Every piece of my heart-shattering. "She has to produce an heir for me before I reject her and I'm sure by that time we've gotten to achieve our main goal," He says yet again.

She looked at me with her captivating eyes. "Your turn, Alpha," she said. My inner wolf growled in pleasure at her words. I made my way over to where she was sitting and sat down in front of her. The only major wound I had endured during the battle was a single scratch across my cheek. She lifted her warm hand and placed it over the cut. "Lux remedium," she whispered softly. A warm tingle replaced the burn on my cheek. Her eyes never left mine as I felt the healing magic penetrate my skin, soothing it. We stayed there for long moments after the tingling magic had faded away looking into each other's eyes.

He attacked his own mages and was taking me down the stairs so fast that I was barely keeping pace with him. At the bottom of them was Magus. Grinning and looking unflappable as always. “Two days early we remarked.” Hawk tossed his head over his shoulder at me. “Does he know?” Magus asked. “He knows everything.” Hawk said dismissively. Scouring the foyer before pulling me across it to wrench open the door. “Garden is going to be the hard part.” Magus commented. Hawk tossed a quelling look over his shoulder and we poured out onto the graveled expanse surrounding the castle before the gardens began.

He turned to the others and shouted as loud as he could, "everybody, hold on to something!" he stomped the ceramic tiling and tightened the tendons in his arms, screaming at the top of his lungs he had no intentions of masking his effort. It took a moment before the floor begun overturning, lifting the floor of the building up and tilting the room towards the doors. He had a form of Earth magic where he could manipulate the physical structure of something without breaking its integrity. The humongous table begun sliding towards the doors, smashing through whatever was on its way, the undead knights were still at the entrance so they had nowhere to hide. The heavy steel banquet table rammed i
