A towering marble fortress lit with white stone columns that stretched into the sky. Snow drifted in slow spirals, settling on the awnings and glowing under the lanterns. Lucian helped Elara from the car only after scanning the street with a careful, lethal precision. If anyone had ever looked at her with such wordless protectiveness, she didn’t remember it.

His wings still out, tensed, and ready, the rest of us holding our weapons. He moved so fast I didn’t even see him. Sliding past the others as fluid as water going around rocks in a stream he came for me, I felt his arm snag my waist and my feet left the Earth. I heard Devon’s shots fire and Kenneth soared into the air in pursuit. Cassi let out a scream and I heard the others calling my name as we ascended, until they were just specks. Kenneth closing in, aiming his crossbow at Shamshiel’s wings, his purple wings beating as he tried desperately to keep up, his face contorted in anguish as he realized he would not be able to help me. In the blink of an eye Shamshiel closed his wings around us

However, not long after, some of the customers also began staring at their screens with shocked looks on their faces. Avery was curious, as she stared at the shocked expressions on their faces, completely lost. She wondered what was going on. What were they all staring at or watching? Out of curiosity, she tried to inch close to one of the customers but Jeffery approached her, grabbing her hand and pulling her back to the counter. He dropped his phone on the counter. “There.” He said to her while she picked up the phone. A live stream was on, showcasing a very badly damaged military camp, with several mutilated bodies lying all around. There were puddles of blood all around, coming together

Hana forced her to sign up for the freshman concert during their first three months on campus and it was already happening tomorrow. She plopped down on her bed and stared at the ceiling. It was another day of being sleep-deprived, but that was the price of being able to study at a SKY university. As well as having a President's Lister roommate who was too smart that she didn't even know the definition of rest. Her eyes felt heavier the more she blinked and then she finally sighed. It's only been a few months, but she knew. She knew that the rest of her life was depending on these few years.

With that, she and her flavor of the night headed for the bed, and I even caught him muttering under his breath, "Your roommate's face… It's kind of freaky. It's not catching, right?" I could not stand the thought of them putting on an X-rated show right there, so I bolted to find a hotel to crash at for the night. I only started to relax after I had dropped off my application to live off-campus. Then my phone buzzed with a new notification. It was Joanna's latest update on her social feed. [Just another night of hitting the dance floor and knocking back drinks.] The photo showed a sea of empty glasses with a bunch of guys lounging around. The comments were already rolling in.

The sound of cracking bones always made me relax and watching those videos is like my favorite thing to do. “I’ll give you a break”, she look a spatula from the counter and hit me with it while I yelped and jumped in order to escape the hit. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry”, I cried out before she stopped the she became serious. “The alpha is holding an meeting with the alpha of the Crescent Pack today and you need to be there” I groaned, I hated catering events like that and she knew it. “Don’t groan at me”, she warned. “You know I’m doing this in your best interest”.

I brought out the cold water and gave it to uncle well dad and rowan but i was still confused of what's happening, until uncle started talking, ‘’You are probably confused why you two are here, well let me do the honours and clear out your doubts and give us all the good news that only me and your parents knew about. He stopped looking at both mine and Rowan’s confused faces and continued his talk, ‘’You two are getting married, well not right now but in three months to be exact and also dear Leah, you will be moving in with Rowan at his penthouse from tomorrow so that you guys can get to know each other. ‘’ Wait.

“You better be. But this isn’t just about being smart. It’s about timing and precision. One misstep, and everything could unravel.” “Then we make sure there’s no misstep,” Ethan said, his voice low and confident. Later that night, after hours of planning, Ethan and Olivia sat in his penthouse, reviewing the final details. It was well past midnight, but neither of them seemed ready to rest. The gravity of the moment had them both on edge, fully aware of the consequences of their next move. Gray wouldn’t go down without a fight, and they couldn’t afford to be caught off guard.

"I can't take it this time. I really can't... "Come back! Let's talk it out. We'll do it your way, okay?" I heard his desperate plea. I saw the tears that carved paths down his cheeks. However, my heart felt nothing. "No, Charles, this is goodbye for good. You won't find me again. "I'm going to get married, have kids, find someone who loves me and whom I love, and I'll have the happy life I deserve." His lips trembled. "Summer, please, don't—"
