Divine Academy
Chapter 18

“Very good.” Luka’s voice calls interrupting my thoughts, my monsoon coming to an erupt stop allowing Penelope the chance to encapsulate me in the earth.
My eyes shoot over to my mate. Katrina seems okay, except her aura now has a silvery glow to it. I grit my teeth as anger clouds my vision. I can hear the power of the sea around me, but I don’t care. The only thing I want to do right now is destroy my professor. He had linked his powers with my mate. His aura was entangled with her own
now.

“Beckett,” Katrina calls running to me, it is only then that I notice Aella and Dade have dropped the barrier and that I have broken through the earth Penelope used to encapsulate me. “Beckett,” Katrina calls again as she walks towards me, seemingly unaffected by the amount of power radiating from me, “you need to stop this before you regret your actions.”
“He took advantage of you.” I growled. “He mated you without your consent.”
“THAT’S NOT WHAT HAPPENED BECKETT!” She yells at me as her eyes begin to swirl with all four elements of the kingdoms. In one of her eyes the elements are melded with white, the other eye the elements are melded with
black.
I can sense her power growing, the angrier she’s getting at me the stronger her powers are growing, I need to stop her before she accidentally hurts someone but I cannot contain the anger I feel swirling around me. It’s like another spirit, something dark and demonic has taken over my body. My water affinity continues to grow stronger, wave after wave shooting from my body, until the entire classroom is filled with sea water, thankfully students from the air kingdom have created for their fellow classmates. Katrina continues to walk to me, the sea parting for her recognizing her as it’s true Queen. I feel my hand beginning to rise against my will, my palm facing outwards towards Katrina, I watch helplessly as acid rain begins to surge through my body, the power rushing towards my
mate. Katrina raises her hand effectively creating a shield blocking the rain, it evaporates the instant it hits her shield. Katrina now has a heavenly aura around her, her body surrounded by a white pure light. She closes the distance between us and embraces me, her lips capturing mine.
The moment we touch I can feel the darkness being thrown from my body, the sweet sound of the ocean waves once again filling my soul. I hold Katrina tightly against me, deepening our kiss, pouring every emotion I feel for her into that kiss, before I pull away from her.
Katrina has somehow managed to call all of my power into her body, the classroom once again spotless. The class looking at Katrina with amazement in their eyes. Luka is starring directly behind us, anger and confusion swirling in his eyes. I turn around to take a look at whatever Luka is watching. There is a mysterious black sludge swirling around, I can sense a life form inside the sludge but it’s something I have never seen before. Katrina turns to face me, noticing my distraction.
“What the hell is that?” She asks.
“I don’t know.” I respond.
“It’s something that shouldn’t exist anymore.” Luka replies, “A darkness that was thought to have been destroyed a

“That thing. It was inside of me. It took control of my body. What has that amount of power that it can control a full blooded God?” I ask Luka, not taking my eyes of the sludge.
The sludge starts to slither like a snake away from us, heading towards our classmates. Katrina lifts her hand once again, sending a small surge of heavenly light towards the sludge disintegrating it on impact.
“Cancel your next class.” I tell Luka, “We need to speak with the others, and I need you to explain what ever that
was.”

“My next period is my free period. However I must warn you Beckett, the closer I am to your mate, the more likely this bond will solidify.” Luka says looking at Katrina. I can’t help but notice the fire in his eyes when he looks at her, he wants her just as much as my cousins and I do.
“It’s a risk, I’ll have to take. I cannot jeopardize the safety of the kingdoms because I am jealous of sharing my mate with yet another person.” I reply, taking Katrina’s hand in mine looking at her hoping that she’ll understand my reasoning.
“I’ll try to prevent it as best as I can.” Luka replies, “I would never force a bond onto someone against their will.” He growls glaring at me.
“Listen man,” I respond as I run my hand through my hair my cheeks tinging pink with embarrassment, “About what
I said earlier.”
Luka interrupts me, “Save it for later, the quicker we inform the others of what’s going on the quicker we can come up with a solution.”
Just a heads up, there may be a slight delay in updates. I am preparing for an upcoming move and my writing time is sparse. I will still continue to update as often as possible, but my updates may not always be on Sat/Sun, hence today’s chapter. I’ll try to have a second chapter uploaded by end of day today. As always thank you for
your continued support. xoxo Marriah.
