Half-Blood Academy 3: Magic Fury

I'm not what everyone thinks I am.

If they discover what I am, both the gods and demons will hunt me to the ends of the universe.

The revelation of my hidden origin would tilt the scales of the immortal war, but I don't carry this dark secret alone. The sea demigod, my sworn enemy, now carries it with me and leaves a trail of dead bodies behind to keep me—and my secret—safe.

Amid the turmoil and chaos, the God of War returns to the Academy. Obsessed with my uniqueness, he steals me from his son's bed to make me warm his.

So war breaks out between the war god and my demigods while Lucifer's army of demons besieges the Academy. If we all survive the brutal battle, my mates will soon learn the truth about me is dirtier than reality.

CHAPTER 1

__________________

The Demigod of Sea killed Brittney cold-bloodedly.

He’d done what I couldn’t have done for myself.

I’d thought myself tough, but I was soft. I wasn’t a real killer like him, though I’d killed plenty of bad dudes in my hunter years.

I tore my gaze from the first-year’s lifeless form to Paxton, whose violet eyes met mine. There wasn’t any warmth in them, just icy determination and a hint of regret.

“Any threat to you must be eliminated,” the killer said matter-of-factly, glancing at the dark mages’ bodies littered across the ground.

He’d slain all of them to protect my secret.

But the demon prince, who claimed to be my cousin, had escaped to Hell.

He’d come back for me soon, as he had promised.

I couldn’t drive away the bone-chilling feeling in my gut. From now on I was living on borrowed time.

“What about you?” I asked harshly, eyeing the demigod like he was a rattlesnake about to bite into my flesh and pump venom into my veins.

“I’m the last person you should worry about hurting you, Buttercup,” he said, his tone cold, yet softening. “And you won’t whisper a thing about what happened here to anyone, not even to your beloved Héctor.”

An ache slithered up my spine at the mention of Héctor.

He wasn’t here. I was thankful he wasn’t the one to hear of my despicable heritage from a demon’s mouth. I couldn’t bear it if my Héctor looked at me with revulsion and enmity.

My heart broke at the prospect that he would eventually learn what I truly was and I wouldn’t be his lamb anymore. He wouldn’t want me as his mate either. A cold, bleak feeling numbed me. I decided then what I had to do. I hated being a liar, but I’d have to keep this secret from him—from Zak and Axel as well.

Livid shouts broke out everywhere. The alarm blared through the grounds of the Academy.

“I’ll take care of you, Buttercup.” Paxton’s words brushed against my cold skin. “No matter whether you like it or not.”

I had no time to ponder if that was a threat or a promise.

The Dominion sentinels arrived, their swords tight in their hands, their Olympian power pulsing in the air, ready to attack.

They must have learned that demons had breached the campus wards. It was a blow to all Dominions that the demons could enter the heart of the demigods’ territory—the Academy.

Two-thirds of the soldiers spread out to find and contain further threats. Cameron, the lieutenant I’d once booted in the chest, led a
