Romans & histoires Steven Universe Ruby Sapphire

I confess. “Hey, calm down. They’re your parents. How can they don’t want to see you? Besides, you’re a smart woman,” Stevie reassures. “Remember this?” she says, pointing to the bracelet she’s wearing. The bracelet catches my eye, and I fondly remember crafting it back in college. It's adorned with delicate silver links, and its centerpiece glimmers with a sparkling sapphire, which happens to be Stevie's birthstone. I recall how Stevie was anxious about our final exams, and I suggested she wear this bracelet for good luck. Surprisingly, it seemed to work like a charm as she aced nearly all of her exams.

I began to say. “I do understand. You’re an Alpha and you think I would make a good Luna. Well, guess what. I wouldn’t. Ask my three mates who have already rejected me about that. Start with Alpha Kyle. He was the first.” She said and I turned to look at Kyle. How the hell could someone reject something as beautiful as this woman standing right in front of me. “Would you please reconsider?” I asked. SAPHIRE POV As I stood there with everyone staring at me with such intense looks on their faces, I'd had enough. I didn't want to be in this damn house anymore.

The man standing in front of me was frail. His height made him stoop. The moonlight captured his sunken eyes just right. He held a tome so thick I feared he would fall over. Despite its size it was a beautiful book. The outside was shiny black. Jewels dotted the front. The back was imbued with bright gold filigree. The man stood on an altar made of the same stuff. It was shiny black. It almost looked like water. I wanted so badly to reach out and touch it but I stopped myself. Something about this felt like a test. I don’t know why I got that impression but I dug my toes into the earth and clasped my hands behind my back.

She had been telling herself this for eleven days. Seraphina Voss. I'm twenty-two years old. Formerly of the Ironveil pack, ward classification, Omega rank. Currently employed as a research assistant at the Velmoor Medical Research Institute, Section B, under Dr. Elan. Transferred from Ironveil seven months ago following the Blood Moon Ceremony. The rejected mate. Lyra set the first page down.

Magnus watched Sapphire as she moved from books to the computer and back again. She was interested in what Sarah Ann gave her. Of course, she was interested. Sapphire was his Luna, his mate. She was born for this role. The gods wouldn’t create a person and place them in a position they were skilled at, but hated performing. “I’ve been thinking.”

He probes further, and I give him the same answer. “Yes.” “Then I guess there’s nothing to worry about, but I must warn you if we find out you lied in this meeting about your powers then no one can save you from the fate ahead, Luna Andrea.” I flinched when his eyes changed colors from red to blue, then golden before going back to his original color brown. “Is that a threat, Steven?” Dante asked, but Steven just shrugged. “That’s the end of the meeting.” Elder Steven said, and a growl of disapproval came from Dave and his cohort.

When she used her strength to focus, she realized that each shard contained different scenes— her memories, she presumed, as her confusion started to abate, and she began to remember. She watched each and every shard like someone watching a movie. As soon as she finished with one, the shard would spiral towards her and embed itself in her forehead, making the memory clearer in her head. Her name was Evie Hunter— the daughter of heavens. Her high aptitude with divine inheritance made her the strongest in her kingdom. But it also caused her downfall. The process repeated until the shards were all consumed, making her recall everything— and everything meant including her death. Recalling the la

Then— The price appears on the screen. One life… For millions. Adrian’s. Not Elaine’s. Not Clara’s. His. Lily whispers, “That’s…” Cruel. Elias nods in the recording. You always were the Anchor. Only the Anchor can reopen the Fracture safely. Choose willingly… And every forgotten world returns. Refuse… And they disappear forever. ⸻ No one speaks for several minutes. Finally, Adrian quietly says, “If it’s true…” Elaine turns sharply. “No.”

“It belonged to my mother. It was specially crafted by my father when they mated. The ruby was infused with his blood and bound to the Luna spirit line. It was lost during the last war. Everyone assumed it was destroyed.” Della looked impressed. “Well, apparently someone found it and auctioned it off in the human world. Solon tracked it down and bought it yesterday. Said it was time it came back to you.” I touched it, still in disbelief that it was there. The moment my skin brushed the ruby, it warmed gently at first and then pulsed once like a heartbeat. “No one else can wear it,” I added. “Only the true Luna. Anyone else would be burned.” “That’s amazing!”Della gasped.

So familiar, but exotic in a way I couldn't even begin to explain. I just stood, staring out the door like an absolute idiot, taking in the God at my doorstep. I couldn't take my eyes off his own. A deep-set swirling violet tinted with the darkest ebony black was confined to the irises of his eyes. It almost trapped me, like hands made from the illusory magic that seemed to pull me in.
