Third Trial

DarkAngel_
This is a short story of 3 chapters that I wrote while studying text production. In theory, it shouldn't be a standalone story but rather the beginning of another, larger work that would consist of two stories: *War* and *What's on the Other Side?* However, since I won't be writing these two stories right now, I decided to separate the beginning and write it first, as I'm trying to practice creating endings... something that this story didn't help much with, as it has a continuation. Anyway, even missing the other two stories, I believe these three chapters serve well as an independent story, even if not very deep or complex. In case you'd like to know, the order of the stories would be: Third Trial, War, and then What's on the Other Side? I will post all three chapters today—one at 6 AM, another at 12 PM, and the last one at 6 PM. Image created by AI.

The Hawk and The Flamebound: Breaking Dawn

In the world of winged creatures, Mirabella Flamire, nicknamed “Little Egg,” was born a humble sparrow. With her crew members, she ferried spices and goods across the kingdom, living a peaceful life away from the talons of larger predators. However, her life took a fateful turn when her crew received the order to escort the sun-scorched Dusthaven king, Eros La Velle, back to his kingdom, who arrived in Everdale to attend the Crown Prince’s wedding. …………………………….. "Do you know what the most serious of all your offenses is, little birdie?" Mirabella gulped. “I... I burnt your book,” she admitted hesitantly. After all, that book held significant information and she had burnt it accidentally. Eros only stared at her, blue eyes gleaming with something unreadable. He shook his head, the corner of his lips curling into a slow smirk. “You shouldn’t have stolen that day,” he whispered hoarsely. Hearing this, Mirabella gritted her teeth. It was just a small flower. She had picked it on impulse because it was so beautiful. But who knew she would be caught in the hands of this hawk king? “My majesty, I have fanned you for two weeks at night to dissolve that crime,” she said angrily. Eros chuckled and stepped closer, crowding her space like a predator closing in on its prey. He lifted his hand, fingers caressing along her jaw until he cupped her cheek in his entire palm. “No,” he murmured, “You stole something far more precious than a flower.” his voice a low caress. Mirabella’s eyes widened. She did? Eros leaned down, his lips grazed her ear as he delivered the final blow. “The heart I kept locked away…” “You stole it, little birdie.” [SLOW BURN]
