Spark Of Destiny Chapter 36
Lila had always been a mystery, a shadow who seemed to appear when things got rough, only to disappear just as quickly. But now, as Alex and Samira sat across from her in the cozy living room of the house she had arranged for them, they began to realize just how deeply she was involved in their lives. This wasn’t just a temporary arrangement. It was a safe haven.The house was modest but beautiful—a small two-story structure tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, in the heart of the city. It was modern, with large windows that let in plenty of sunlight, casting warm golden rays over the wooden floors. The scent of fresh paint still lingered in the air, a sign that the home had been newly prepared for them.Samira’s eyes lit up as she explored, peeking into the spacious kitchen and running her fingers along the smooth granite countertops. She could already picture the meals they would share, the laughter that would fill the space as they finally had a place to call their own, free from t
Spark Of Destiny Chapter 37
Astra crouched on the rooftop of a nearby building, the dim light of dawn casting long shadows across her lithe frame. The city below her was quiet, but her mind was racing with the thrill of discovery. After weeks of tracking, she had finally picked up on the signals—faint but unmistakable. Alex, Lila, and Samira were back. She had been patient, moving silently in the background while the others—Raven and Malachai—fumbled with their attempts to hunt them down. But Astra was different. She was methodical, calculating, and lethal. Her earpiece crackled to life, and Silas’s voice cut through the static like a blade. “What is it, Astra? Have you found them?” A smirk curled on her lips as she spoke. “They’re back. Alex, Lila Kim, and the girl. I’ve confirmed their location.” There was a pause on the other end of the line, the tension between them palpable even through the distance. Silas was furious—his other assassins had failed him, and now Astra was his last card to play. She cou

Lila stepped forward, her expression cold and unwavering. “Let him come. We’ll be ready.”Astra staggered back, her body trembling with pain and exhaustion. She knew she had no choice but to retreat. Fighting both Alex and Lila simultaneously had been a mistake. She was overconfident, and now she was paying the price. Silas would not be pleased, but she had to survive to fight another day.She clenched her jaw, fury boiling beneath the surface, but she could barely stand. Glaring at Alex and Lila, she turned on her heel, using the last of her strength to disappear into the shadows. The wind carried her away, leaving only the tension of her words hanging in the air. Alex watched Astra vanish, his chest still heaving from the exertion of the battle. He felt a strange mixture of relief and frustration. He had come close to defeating her, but without Lila’s intervention, he wasn’t sure how the fight would have ended. The power of the amulet surged within him, but something inside him sti
Spark Of Destiny Chapter 39
As the school year resumed in full swing and the pressure of dealing with Silas and his assassins seemed to fade temporarily into the background, life at school became somewhat normal again for Alex and Samira. Although their return had been marked with whispers and rumors after the mysterious absence, they were slowly settling back into a routine. For Samira, however, something unexpected was about to turn her world upside down—something that had nothing to do with amulets, powers, or deadly enemies. It was about someone new.It all started one afternoon in the school library. Samira had volunteered to help with organizing books as part of the school’s community service program. Alex was out training with Lila, and for once, she had a chance to focus on herself. As she scanned the spines of dusty novels, pulling down a few to shelve, she caught sight of a figure a few rows down, absorbed in a thick book. At first glance, she didn’t pay much attention to the person. But when she lean

The next day at school, Alex found Ryan by the lockers. He had been thinking about Ryan and Samira’s growing closeness for a while now, and though Alex trusted Samira completely, he couldn’t help feeling protective. Samira had been through so much, and the last thing Alex wanted was for anyone to hurt her, especially after everything they had faced together.Ryan was pulling a textbook out of his locker when Alex approached. He noticed Alex coming and gave a friendly smile, but Alex's expression was serious, and it stopped Ryan in his tracks."Hey, Alex," Ryan said, his voice casual but with a hint of uncertainty. "What’s up?"Alex crossed his arms, standing a little taller as he looked at Ryan directly. "We need to talk."Ryan blinked, confused by the tone. "Okay, sure. What about?""About Samira," Alex said, his voice calm but firm.Ryan’s brows furrowed. "Is something wrong? Did I—""No," Alex cut in. "Not yet. But let me make this clear, Ryan." He stepped a little closer, lowering

As Alex and Samira walked through the school courtyard, a thick cloud of smoke caught their attention. They exchanged a glance before rushing toward the source of the commotion. It didn’t take long to realize that a building across from the school—a local community center—was engulfed in flames.Panic spread among the students who had gathered to watch, some filming with their phones while others shouted for help. Fire trucks had yet to arrive, and the flames were growing by the second."We have to do something," Samira said, her voice tense with urgency.Alex looked around, making sure no one was paying too much attention to him. He felt the familiar hum of energy from the amulet against his chest, his connection to its power stronger than ever. He knew what he had to do."Stay back," Alex told Samira quietly. "I’ll handle this."Without waiting for a response, Alex ran toward the fire. His heart raced, but his mind was clear. He could feel the power inside him, ready to be unleashed
Spark Of Destiny Chapter 42
It had been brewing for days. The tension between Alex and Victor was palpable, and everyone at school knew it. Ever since Alex had returned, Victor had been simmering with jealousy and frustration. No one could rival his strength while Alex was away, but now that Alex had returned, things were different. Victor’s reign as the most feared and powerful student was being challenged, and it didn’t sit well with him.The final confrontation happened on a Friday afternoon, just as the school was about to let out for the weekend. The cafeteria was packed, students milling about in groups, some eating, others chatting. Samira and Alex had just found a table near the back when Victor stormed in, flanked by Jake and Emily, his loyal followers. His eyes zeroed in on Alex like a predator spotting its prey."You’ve got a lot of nerve coming back here like you own the place," Victor spat, loud enough for the entire room to hear. The murmurs of conversation died down as heads turned to watch the un

Over the next two weeks, Ryan and Samira grew closer, their bond forming naturally as they spent more time together. Ryan, with his easygoing personality, had a way of making Samira laugh even during difficult times. They’d often hang out after school, walking through the park or grabbing coffee at a small café near campus. Samira appreciated the simplicity of it—the way Ryan didn’t ask too many questions, but was always there to listen.One afternoon, while they were sitting on the swings at the park, Ryan turned to her, his expression serious for once. "You know, you’ve been through a lot with Alex. It’s pretty impressive how you’ve stood by him through everything."Samira shrugged, looking out at the empty playground. "He’s my best friend. I wouldn’t abandon him, no matter what."Ryan smiled at that, a soft admiration in his eyes. "It’s rare to find someone so loyal. Most people would have run by now, considering all the crazy stuff happening around him."Samira glanced at him, rai

Astra moved through the shadows, her eyes sharp as she scanned the darkened streets. She’d been tracking Samira all night, but so far, the girl had managed to stay just out of reach. Astra smirked to herself. *You can run, Samira, but you can’t hide forever.*A flash of movement caught her attention as someone stepped out from a nearby alley. Astra’s smirk faded as she realized it wasn’t Samira—it was Naomi, completely unaware of the danger lurking around her.“Wrong place, wrong time, kid,” Astra muttered under her breath, slipping silently behind her.Naomi, glancing around nervously, felt the eerie presence but couldn’t place it. She quickened her pace, muttering to herself, “I hate walking alone at night… Should’ve waited for Ryan to walk with me.”Astra stepped out in front of her, blocking her path with a cold smile. “Well, well… What have we here?”Naomi gasped, stumbling back a step. “Who… Who are you?”Astra tilted her head, feigning innocence. “A friend of a friend. Or, mayb

As the sun dipped below the horizon, signaling the end of the first day of extra-curricular activities, Samira headed home, her mind racing. She barely noticed the streets passing by as her thoughts drifted back to Alex. The school had been buzzing all day with excitement, but beneath her own energy, there was a constant, gnawing worry about him. As she pushed open the front door, she was met by Lila, who was seated on the couch, looking deep in thought.“Hey,” Samira greeted, tossing her bag on the chair. “Long day?”Lila looked up and gave a faint smile. “You could say that. Dodgeball was intense, but that’s not really what’s been on my mind.”Samira sat down beside her, sighing. “Yeah... I know the feeling. I’ve been thinking about Alex all day.”Lila’s expression grew more serious. “I just can’t shake this feeling. We both know Silas has him. But why hasn’t Silas made a move yet? What’s he waiting for?”Samira leaned back, crossing her arms. “That’s what I’ve been wondering too.

The hallways of East Ridge High were alive with chatter and excitement. It was extra-curricular week, and the energy was contagious. Posters for various activities were plastered on every wall, students rushed between rooms for sign-ups, and laughter echoed off the lockers. It was as if the disappearance of Alex had faded into the background. "Can you believe it? Dodgeball tournament starts tomorrow!" one student said, grinning at his friend as they passed by Ryan, Samira Naomi.Naomi glanced at Ryan, her brow furrowing. "It's like everyone’s forgotten... about Alex."Ryan grunted in response, his jaw tight. “Yeah, it’s like he never existed. Just gone. Poof. And everyone’s excited about dodgeball.”Samira sighed, running a hand through her hair. "We should’ve heard something by now, right? I mean, he wouldn’t just vanish without a word. Not to us."Ryan stopped in his tracks, his fists clenching. “It’s like no one cares! How can they just move on like this? It’s been weeks, Naomi!”

Victor leaned casually against a locker, his arms crossed, a smug smirk on his face as a small group of students gathered around him. The chatter in the hallway quieted as Victor raised his voice just enough to be heard."Yeah, Alex ran off. Guess he finally realized he couldn't handle the heat. Not everyone can," Victor said with a confident grin, tossing a glance at a few onlookers. "I mean, it was only a matter of time. He’s been trying to play tough, but we all know who really runs things around here."One of his friends, a lanky kid with an eager-to-please attitude, nodded vigorously. "Yeah, man. You showed him. Probably couldn’t deal with you anymore."Victor shrugged, his smirk widening. "It’s not like I tried that hard. He just couldn’t keep up."A few of the students murmured in agreement, nodding along. Ryan, who had been standing nearby with Naomi, overheard the conversation and clenched his fists. His face twisted with anger as he stormed over to Victor. "You’re really f

The hallways buzzed with energy, students huddled in groups, whispers spreading like wildfire. As Samira and Ryan walked through the halls, they could hear snippets of conversation trailing behind them."Did you hear? Alex Chen’s gone missing.""No way. Seriously?""Yeah, no one’s seen him for days. He’s probably in some serious trouble."Ryan shot Samira a worried glance. "It’s everywhere already," he muttered.Samira clenched her fists, keeping her head down. "I figured it would spread fast, but this is ridiculous."A group of girls passed by, whispering louder than they realized. "Do you think he got into a fight with Victor again? Maybe he’s hiding."One of the girls scoffed. "Hiding? From Victor? Alex would never. He probably just ran off because he couldn’t handle the pressure."Ryan narrowed his eyes, his voice low. "I should say something. Set them straight.""Don’t," Samira warned, pulling him back. "Let them talk. We don’t need to give them more reason to gossip."Ahead of t

Lila paced back and forth, her fists clenched tightly as her mind raced. The normally composed martial artist was clearly shaken. Samira sat on the edge of the couch, her knee bouncing anxiously as she glanced at the door for the hundredth time that evening. Naomi leaned against the wall, arms folded, her eyes narrowing in deep thought, while Ryan hovered by the window, glancing outside as if expecting Alex to suddenly appear.Samira finally broke the tense silence, her voice trembling. "He’s never been gone this long without telling us. Something’s wrong."Lila stopped pacing, turning to face Samira. "I know. I’ve felt it too. But wherever he is, he’s not going to just disappear without reason."Ryan frowned, still staring out the window. "Maybe he just needed some time alone? You know Alex, always taking things on his own shoulders."Naomi shook her head. "No, not this time. He would’ve said something. This is different.Ryan turned, his brows furrowed. "So, what are we saying here?

As Alex’s world faded into black, the sound of Silas’s mocking laughter lingered in his ears, a cruel reminder of his failure. When his eyes fluttered open, everything was cold. His body ached, his wrists bound tightly in chains. The faint flicker of dim torchlight cast eerie shadows on the stone walls around him. He was in a cell, deep within Silas’s lair.Groaning, Alex tried to move, but the chains rattled with his effort, reminding him of his helplessness. His mind raced, replaying the events in his head. Silas was right there, taunting him, breaking him down bit by bit. And worse, Astra—someone he thought he could destroy—was somehow tied to the death of Grandma Chen. He hung his head low, feeling the weight of his own decisions. *I should’ve told Lila. I should’ve told Samira. What was I thinking, coming here alone?* His fists clenched as guilt gnawed at him. Suddenly, a voice broke through the silence, low and cold.“You’re awake.”Alex’s head shot up, eyes narrowing as Silas

Silas stood in the dark chamber, focusing his energy on the amulet’s connection to Alex. His eyes gleamed as he began weaving illusions through the bond. "It’s time to see just how far your emotions will take you, Alex Chen," he whispered.Through the shadows, he projected the vision: Astra lying on the ground, bloodied and broken. Her chest barely rising as she struggled to breathe. The scene shifted, showing Astra standing over Grandma Chen’s lifeless body, holding the blade that had ended her life.---Alex gasped, jolting upright in bed. His heart pounded, eyes wide as the horrific image burned into his mind.*No... she was part of it?*Without a second thought, Alex grabbed the amulet and stormed out of the room. He didn’t wake Lila or Samira, not even considering it. This was personal now. He had to face Astra—alone.---In the dim, cold cavern that served as Silas's lair, Alex arrived, fists clenched tight. His breath was ragged, his mind clouded with anger and betrayal."You,"

The Shadow Circle's chamber was filled with an unsettling quiet. Silas paced at the head of the room, his patience thinning.Raven glanced at Malachai, uneasy. “Silas, we’ve been watching them for a while now. They’re moving carefully. Alex has Lila, and she’s been covering their tracks.”“That’s the problem,” Silas snapped. “You’re watching. We’re sitting back while the boy grows stronger. And Lila? She’s making him dangerous.”Malachai shifted, his deep voice calm but calculated. “We underestimated her. She’s using skills we didn’t account for.Silas stopped pacing, his eyes cold as they met Malachai’s. “Underestimated? That’s what you tell me now? What you call underestimating, I call incompetence. Alex and Lila should’ve been in my grasp long ago.”Raven stiffened, but didn’t speak. Silas’s temper was notorious, and she wasn’t about to provoke him further.“Alex’s power,” Silas continued, ignoring their silence, “it’s growing. The amulet responds to his emotions—rage, fear, all of
