The castle trembled as darkness poured in from the gates.
Meera stood beside Arvian, her hands glowing faintly.
This was no ordinary attack—these were the hunters who had been tracking her bloodline for centuries.
💔 Thump… thump… thump…
Arvian's eyes flared crimson.
"They're here for you… not me," he growled, stepping forward.
"Show me what you've learned."
Meera nodded, determination surging through her veins.
She had trained. She had fought. And she was ready.
The first wave of attackers lunged.
Arvian moved like a shadow, striking with deadly precision.
Meera's hands flared with golden light, energy blasting away the nearest enemies.
She could feel the curse in her blood, humming—dangerous, yet powerful.
One hunter, faster than the rest, darted toward Meera.
Her heart raced—💔 Thump… thump… thump…
Instinctively, she extended her hands.
A surge of light burst from her palms, knocking the attacker back.
Arvian's eyes widened—she was stronger than he expected.
Ayaan appeared from the shadows, his small form glowing faintly.
"I can help too!" he shouted, releasing a wave of energy that scattered several attackers.
Meera glanced at him.
"Together!" she yelled, feeling a surge of confidence.
Arvian and Meera fought side by side, perfectly synchronized.
Shadows bent to their will. Enemies fell before them like leaves in a storm.
💗 Their bond, their trust, their power—it was unstoppable.
The last hunter fell back, wounded but alive.
The leader stepped forward, furious.
"This isn't over, King Arvian… or you, human girl!" he hissed, disappearing into the night.
Breathing heavily, Meera turned to Arvian.
"I… I did it," she whispered, amazed at herself.
He stepped closer, crimson eyes softening.
"You did. And you surprised me," he said.
"Your power… your courage… you're extraordinary."
💗 Their hands brushed—a spark passing between them, forbidden yet undeniable.
Ayaan smirked from the corner.
"You two… are unstoppable together," he teased.
Meera blushed.
Arvian didn't respond… but his eyes lingered on her longer than necessary.
