Lucis Caelum Novels & Stories

Lucia says, her face pale as we all turn to her. “And what might that be?” Kash asks, cocking a brow at her. She tilts her head, and I know she can see he doesn’t trust her. “The planets will align, and the Gemini constellation will touch the full moon…” She says quietly. “I enjoy astronomy… it was announced on the human news a few days ago.” Why does it feel like that could be the answer… “K.” Kash’s annoying response comes as his sister casts him a scathing glare. “That makes sense. You’re smart Lucia. You always have been!” Isa says, clearly proud of her.

Celeste rushed toward the glass. Her father began coughing. Lucien grabbed her around the waist and pulled her back. "Don't!" "He's suffocating!" "That's the point." He looked toward the ceiling. "Elias wants us to open the room." Celeste stared at him. "And if we don't?" Lucien's expression darkened. "The room will become a tomb." The countdown continued. 00:43:08 Celeste wiped the tears from her eyes. "Then we have forty-three minutes." Lucien looked at her.

"It is the living blood of the original Sun Queen—the pristine, uncorrupted solar flame passed down through our lineage. Valerius doesn't just want to destroy Obsidian Ridge. He wants you. He will use every forbidden weapon in the Capital's arsenal to strip Caelum away from you and force you into the Crucible." Before Lyra could process the chilling realization, the heavy iron doors of the medical wing swung open. Caelum entered the room, his long black cloak trailing behind him like a wave of physical darkness. His dark linen shirt was open at the collar, revealing the glowing silver-gold lines of their shared mating mark, and his striking gold-and-silver eyes burned with absolute, cold aut

“Arthur was right about one thing. You cannot run from this family. You cannot run from this legacy. And you certainly cannot run from me.” He raised a hand, and suddenly, alarms began to blare throughout the chamber—loud, shrieking sirens that hurt the ears. The blue light turned a violent, warning red. The hum of the machine rose to a deafening pitch. “Obsidian doesn’t just generate energy, my dear,” Lucius said calmly over the noise, as chaos erupted around us—Arthur shouting, Vincent backing away, Elvira looking terrified. “It amplifies it. It stores it. And when fully activated… it releases it. Not just to power cities. But to reshape them.”

The full moon shone directly through a narrow shaft in the ceiling, bathing the entire space in pure, unfiltered moonlight. “Are you certain?” Lucien asked, voice low and rough with emotion. He stepped closer, one large hand rising to cup Caelan’s face with infinite tenderness. “We can stop at any moment. The realm can accept an adopted heir. I will not risk you — not even for a child of our blood.”

She carefully admitted. Lucien burrowed his gaze into the ceiling and after a moment of silently staring into the white space, he narrowed his gaze at Giselle with a slight tilt of his head. His steel grey eyes were now a litter shade with red flakes nearly invisible, still held a dull glow. His face perhaps could mask his true emotions, but not his eyes. The colour appeared to either darken ever so visibly or go diluted or glow, according to his emotions at the moment. Right then, a soothsayer wasn't needed to tell the conflicting and sour feelings floating in his mind.

They both chuckled, low and dark, and the sound sent a thrill racing down my spine. Caelum traced a finger along my jawline. “You think this is about pleasure?” He leaned in until his lips brushed my ear. “No, darling… this is about control.” Lucien took the blindfold from Caelum’s hand and unfolded it slowly before bringing it over my eyes. “Wait! I can’t see!” My breath came faster as darkness swallowed me whole. “Exactly,” Lucien whispered, pressing a kiss to my temple. “Now you’ll feel everything… without knowing when or where we’ll touch you next.”

Its surface was covered with hundreds of tiny lenses. They watched in wonder as it rose into the air hovered over their head. “Cool!” Vivian muttered as she craned her neck to look at it, soaring in the sky. Mr. Dixon, their Supervisor, tapped an icon on his IAD and the device came fluttering towards him. “This combines the features of a telescope and a high definition camera. It will help you live-stream the details of The Lycan World once you are within 5000 miles of the planet.” He explained as he caught the device in his hand.

And her voice—Lydia’s voice—spoke from her mouth. “He is coming.” Lydia’s blood ran cold. The torchlight flickered wildly, casting long shadows across the chamber. Circe lifted her head once more, golden eyes burning like fire. “He is coming,” she repeated, louder this time. “He is coming, Lydia. And he knows what you are.” --- Lydia awoke with a gasp. Her sheets were soaked in sweat. Her hands trembled as she pushed herself upright, chest heaving. The room was silent.
