I put down my chips and gulped down a bottle of Earl Grey tea to calm down.

Sparks of molten energy hit the shadowed Wraith, twisting fiercely and breaking up every illusion, piece of old enemies, and temptation into bright molten sparks. Flames of molten silver flew from the guardian's eyes across the area. "Moonbound, you made it through the fourth trial. Your bravery, instincts, and bonds have proven themselves. But the final trials are coming up, and they will test everything you hold dear." Kael growled, his amber eyes wide. "You did it! You kept us all safe!" Thorne had bright golden eyes and said, "I made it through the fourth trial. Moonbound, your pulse... anchors the Silver Heart like never before."

I couldn't tell who reached for me first, but soon more hands were groping at my legs. "Don't touch me!" I cried, trying to pull away.

Are you dodging this slowly just to play hard to get?" At his words, the hands groping me came to a halt. He shot me a piercing look. "Are you really trying to make some quick money? Out of respect for what we had, I'll let you," he said, unconsciously tracing the skin beneath his tattoo.

every label came with a bloody rumor. In a brutal firefight, half his face had been burned, and he had since retreated into the shadows, his methods becoming even more savage.

Small. Soft. Real. It was Liz. I knew how her hands felt. “Jake…” Her voice was soft, trembling. Her eyes were dripping with tears, but she didn’t look away. She wasn’t afraid. She wasn’t disgusted. She was just… there. She touched my scars like they were nothing, tracing them without being disgusted.

I asked him. “I’m looking for information on the trials. It apparently goes by a couple of different names. Angel Trials, Stonehenge Trials, Cursed Trials, and so on. As far as it’s recorded, it’s never been completed. I promise you Rose, that we won’t give up on getting back your babies. No matter whether your men beat the trials or not.” He said.

The ones Alice tried to avoid. Her legs began to move

I barely recognized the girl staring back at me in the black screen. Scars ran down my face, souvenirs from the day I ran into the fire to save the photo Axel and Gloria left behind. None of it mattered anymore. Leaving him was the only thing that did.

“Rogues. Survivors. People who don’t answer to anyone. I thought maybe I’d find a place.” A beat of silence. Then… a grin. “You’ve got teeth,” the leader said. “What’s your name?” “Rei,” she answered quickly. “Just Rei.” He nodded. “Then welcome, Rei. You’re not a prisoner. Yet.” She didn’t miss the weight of that last word. She was alive—for now. But she was among wolves. And she was lying to be a boy again. --- Back at Blackmoon Academy, the second Trial was called Command Under Fire—a grueling endurance task set in a simulated battlefield, combining strategy, elemental manipulation, and cooperative leadership.
