• HIS BABY GROWS INSIDE ME, BUT HIS HEART BELONGS TO HER    Chapter 100 The Star That Fell

  The sky was no longer fractured but it wasn’t whole either.A **single star**, brilliant and seething, streaked across the heavens, descending fast. Not a comet. Not a celestial body. It shimmered with **intention**, pulsing with the same energy Aria had seen in the Creator’s robes opalescent, infinite, and alien.Everyone had stopped moving. Warriors froze mid-chant. Wolves held their breath in human skin. The birds had gone silent. The trees had stilled.It wasn’t just falling.It was **coming**.Kael stood tall beside Aria, Rowan and Elara huddled close. Behind them, Lyra drew her blades, her body tensed in readiness not against war, but against the unknown. They had fought gods, nightmares, curses, and fate. But this?This was **what came after** all of that.“What is it?” Elara whispered, her voice small.Aria stepped forward slowly, shielding her children behind her. Her heart beat not in fear, but in **purpose**. Her body still bore the trace of the tether the soul-mark of one

  The world didn’t break with a bang.It broke with a **shiver**.A deep, bone-cold vibration rolled through the earth, the sky, the very marrow of those still standing. Trees groaned as if mourning. The wind hissed low like it knew a secret no one should hear.Kael stood at the cliff’s edge, Rowan beside him, both watching the growing crack in the sky. It wasn’t violet like the Rift, nor golden like the Flame.It was **pure void** an absence of everything. Not a tear. Not even a wound. Just a place where existence had been **denied**.“What is that?” Rowan whispered.Kael didn’t answer. He didn’t have to.Behind them, Aria emerged from the healer’s tent, her steps slower than usual, her breath shallow. The battle with Vaelor, the tether, the confrontation inside the curse it had taken more than strength. It had touched parts of her that shouldn’t be touched by mortals.Lyra fell into step beside her. “You should rest.”Aria shook her head. “There’s no time.”Her gaze lifted to the crac

  Kael’s body was heavy in Aria’s arms.His blood soaked into the scorched earth, darker than night, pooling beneath him with every slow heartbeat. The wound on his shoulder wasn’t bleeding like a normal gash it *leaked*, oozing an inky vapor that burned the air itself. Whatever Vaelor had struck him with, it wasn’t meant to heal.“Kael…” Aria whispered, brushing hair from his forehead, her voice cracking. “Stay with me. Please.”His eyes fluttered open, pupils flickering gold.“Still...here,” he rasped, but even that cost him. His chest rose with effort, shallow and uneven.Rowan dropped to his knees beside them. “He’s dying,” he said in a whisper meant only for himself but it shattered something in Elara, who let out a small sob.Lyra knelt on Kael’s other side, her jaw clenched. “That wasn’t just shadow magic. That was a curse. A tether to the void Vaelor once ruled. And he took the hit to shield you.”Aria didn’t need the explanation. She could feel it. The energy worming through Ka

  The crowned figure took another step forward.He wasn’t large or cloaked in flame like the Watcher. He didn’t need to be. Power radiated off him in slow, rotting waves ancient and cold, the kind that didn’t kill you outright but waited patiently as everything you loved withered from the inside.Aria didn’t flinch as the Hollow Circle assembled behind him, their chant rising in a rhythmic whisper that sounded like leaves rustling in a dying forest.**“Blood owed. Bone bound. Debt returns.”**The crowned man’s lips curved faintly as he removed the blindfold from his eyes.But there were no eyes beneath it.Only darkness an endless pit where sight should be. And from that void, Aria could feel it again… the pull. The memory. The night she begged to live. The night a whisper in her womb answered her prayer.**“You don’t remember my name,”** the man said softly, voice like velvet over broken glass. **“Because you were never meant to.”**Kael stepped in front of Aria instinctively, his eyes

  The world exhaled.For the first time in what felt like a lifetime, the air was still. No howling winds. No tremors beneath their feet. No screaming sky.The Rift had sealed. The golden light that had framed the children slowly dissolved into the clouds. The Pale Guard remained kneeling in silence, their blades resting in the earth, no longer a threat but relics of what had nearly become an ending.Kael stood with his arms still protectively wrapped around Rowan and Elara, his mind struggling to reconcile what had just happened. Ashen was gone. So was Callen. But in their place… a calm lingered. Fragile, trembling, but real.Aria remained frozen in place, staring at the sky where the violet tear had once hung. Her body shimmered faintly flickers of Flame, Balance, and Memory weaving beneath her skin like veins of living light. But her expression was not one of triumph.It was one of grief.“He’s gone,” she whispered.Kael stepped beside her, brushing his fingers lightly against hers.

• HIS BABY GROWS INSIDE ME, BUT HIS HEART BELONGS TO HER    Chapter 95 The Watcher Speaks

  The Watcher did not walk.He drifted, each movement slow and precise, as though the laws of gravity and time bent politely around him. His cloak of tattered gold fluttered without wind. His face if it was a face remained concealed behind a mask of jagged bone and woven thorns. Where his eyes should have been, only a dark void stared back.Even the Pale Guard, once thought to be the apex of cosmic judgment, trembled in his presence.**“I am the Watcher of Forgotten Gods,”** he repeated, voice layered like wind whispering through a tomb. **“I come not to punish… but to correct.”**Kael instinctively pulled Rowan and Elara closer, his muscles tensing. He could feel every instinct in his wolf resisting this being’s presence because this wasn’t a man, a god, or a spirit.This was **absence** given form.Aria stepped forward, her body still faintly glowing from her return. She had merged with Flame, Balance, and Memory but even so, the Watcher’s energy unnerved her. It didn’t vibrate with p
