Alexander 4.0

The mentors' lounge at Coven Academy was busier than usual.

There, the mentors of the academy's various species gathered: vampires, sorcerers, werewolves, and many other supernatural creatures. Among them was Alexander, sitting by a table, listening distractedly to the meeting.

"As you know, the first-year student assessments will begin this week," explained one of the teachers.

Alexander looked up when he heard that.

Elsewhere in the academy, Lia had just finished a witchcraft practice.

Despite being a first-year student, she had managed to surpass several students in her class. Her magical talent had begun to attract the attention of teachers and mentors.

Damian, her mentor, was waiting for her in the hallway.

"You surprised everyone again," he said, crossing his arms.

Lia smiled.

—Is that a bad thing?

—Not at all. But one day you're going to make me run out of excuses to defend myself when you cause trouble.

They both let out a small laugh.

Damian was more than just her mentor. They had become friends and partners in crime, especially when it came to the little adventures Lia found within the academy.

What none of the other mentors knew was that Alexander had also begun to pay special attention to Lia's talent and they were a couple.

And soon, their paths would cross again.
