Phoenix of Calamity

In a world overrun by supernatural creatures and magic, phoenixes are known to be 'extinct' creatures of a distant past that were commonly referred to as 'Creatures of Calamity' and yet, contrary to that belief, they were also known to be creatures of sublime peace and indomitable mental fortitude. Our main character, Arthur is one of two princes of the Phoenixes. Born into a race that must remain hidden, lest they risk losing their lives to their mortal enemies, the Dragons. As life in the castle becomes more 'suffocating', the prince sets his sights on something... interesting. Barthlorn School of the Supernatural: An elite academy meant to train only the best to fight the Dark Forces of the Supernatural. Hunters, Dragons, Shifters, Warlocks, Healers, Magic and so much more are to be found within the walls of the great School. With so much to learn and so little to lose by doing so, the prince seeks adventure within the walls of the Academy. Like all oblivious main characters, nothing prepares him for the adventures he will find at great school. Nothing prepares him for the strength of the bonds he creates there... and with those bonds comes the frailty of his race's most sacred secret. Revealing the existence of his kind could quite literally mean death for all phoenixes. ............................. PS. The cover photo is not mine.

An Exception

Lyra placed the pad down on the table and walked past Arthur. The prince, on the other hand, froze, 'Stay away from…'

'Shut up!' he internally screamed.

Sweat glistened off his forehead as the female dragon passed by him. Their close proximity got her perfume inside his sensitive nostrils… but there was something else.

A deeper scent, much more rooted to her being. A scent that screamed… 'Lyra.' And oddly enough, picking this scent and knowing it was her, calmed him.

"You coming?" the redhead's melodic voice snapped him out of his dazed state.

"Y-yeah," Arthur stammered making his way for the exit as well. The princess frowned for only a moment before walking ahead of him.

"Still can't stand being close to me, huh!" she wondered.

"N-no, it's nothing like that!" Arthur argued.

"No, it's fine. I wouldn't blame you," the girl replied.

Arthur went to say something else but his words got caught in his throat.
