mouth, I keep laughing. “And killing me is the only way to make sure I never rival you!”
Rizor’s anger seems to build, and I expect him to attack me but then I gasp in pain. Something sharp goes right through my stomach, and I look down, seeing a sword tip just before it’s pulled back through me. Oddly, the pain doesn’t last even as I fall to my knees, pressing my hands against my stomach like I can stop the blood pouring out from me.
“NO!” Eziel roars, his clothes ripping to pieces off his body, and he shifts. A massive red wolf bursts into the courtyard, and a low, possessive growl vibrates the surrounding air.
“You’re the reason my mate is dead, and you will pay for it,” a voice I never expected to hear again claims. My dad walks around from behind me, dragging his blood-coated sword across the ground. “You’re finally dead, just like you should have been from the—”
My dad’s head is cut off with a swing of a sharp paw, and his body drops as Eziel’s wolf lands on top of it. His red eyes burn into mine, and I try to smile.
“Thank you for everything. Don’t let your father tell you you’re not amazing, Con, because you are. You always have been,” I whisper, knowing my time is fading.
He howls in the air, and the pain in his howl hurts my chest. Another red wolf, Rizor no doubt, bites down hard on Eziel’s shoulder, and his roar echoes around the courtyard. The two of them fill the quietness with growls and roars. I fall on my side, unable to stop myself.
“Not yet,” a voice whispers into my ears when big arms pick me up and press me against a warm chest.
I instantly feel safe, even as I know I’m close to dying. At least I won’t die alone. In a daze, I look at the man holding me, his face a blur. I struggle to hold my head up. He seems familiar.
“Alpha Lyulf of Rivermare, the portal is ready for you.”
Eventually, the alpha of Rivermare’s face comes into focus as he smiles down at me, carrying me through a portal. “Alaric?”
“We all have our secrets, love. Turns out mine were always there to protect you,” he says, his eyes gleaming the brightest shade of blue I’ve ever seen. “Welcome to Rivermare. You’ll be safe here. You always were.”

My fate is in the dark,
And my shadow there is real…
The darkness likes to play in this world.
It also likes to deceive.
In the Enchanted Forest, secrets thrive and one girl desperately needs to find answers before it’s too late.
That girl is Corvina Charles, a powerful Shadowborn—a human who touched dark magic and became something else.
Something dangerous.
At the age of eighteen, Corvina and her best friend are swept away to the Shadowborn Academy, the one place where magic and darkness coincide.
It’s also where pupils go missing, teachers don’t play by any rules, the therapist is hot, and boys with dark magic love to seduce your soul.
With death becoming a game at the academy that not even the Dark or Light Fae seem capable of winning, Corvina’s love life should really be the last thing on her mind…especially when one of the boys just so happens to be her teacher!
Shadowborn Academy is a Dark Reverse Harem Paranormal Fae Romance for 18+. In this world, not even the
