Aria stirred slowly, her lashes fluttering open as the soft warmth around her pulled her fully awake.She tried to move, but it felt impossible as she was wrapped in strong arms, her body pressed gently against a firm chest beneath the covers.Her breath hitched for a moment as memories of the previous night flooded her mind.A faint smile curved her lips as a blush slowly spread across her cheeks at the thought.She wouldn't be exaggerating if she said it was the best night of her life.She snuggled closer to Cain, clinging to him like a second skin, not minding the fact that they were both naked beneath the covers. Her fingers tightened slightly against the blanket.A memory suddenly flashed through her mind, making her gaze shift slowly, trailing up towards Cain's neck.Her breath caught.The mark, it was real.She had marked him. How was that even possible?Surprise and confusion flickered through her eyes."How is this even possible?" she thought to herself.Inside her, Snow stir

Aria stood in front of the mirror, her reflection staring right back at her.The soft glow from the wall candles danced across her skin, highlighting every delicate curve the red lingerie clung to.It was… simple, yet dangerously beautiful.The fabric was a deep, rich crimson– thin and silky, resting gently against her skin like a second layer. Fine lace traced along the edges, forming intricate patterns that barely concealed anything, yet revealed just enough to drive anyone wild. The straps rested lightly on her shoulders, while the fabric hugged her waist before falling softly against her thighs.Aria swallowed, she was endowed and she knew it, but seeing herself like this made her heart race. She couldn't even imagine the look on Cain's face when he sees her like this.Especially with the light makeup that Mariella had done to enhance her beauty. Her lips were slightly tinted red– matching the lingerie color, her lashes darker, her cheeks holding a soft glow. Her hair fell loosely

Kael stirred slowly on the soft, warm bed as a faint, low groan escaped his lips as he shifted on the bed.His brows became knitted together when an instant dull, persistent ache pulsed through his head, spreading from his temples to the back of his skull.For a few seconds, he remained still, eyes still closed as he tried to steady his breathing and gather himself, but the discomfort– the pain refused to fade. Instead, it lingered, heavy and unsettling, like a warning he could not yet understand.With a quiet exhale, he finally opened his eyes and the first thing that struck him was the unfamiliar ceiling above him.He pushed himself up from the bed, ignoring the dizziness that followed the movement. "This isn't my chamber." he mumbled.He took in his surroundings quickly.Hair brush, clips and other accessories arranged neatly on a small table with other things which he found very unfamiliar.Gowns neatly arranged on a hanger at the corner of the room.And with it, realization began

Aria took a steady breath, pushed the door open, and stepped quietly out of her chamber into the quiet chamber.Just as she turned to leave, she bumped into something or rather someone."Ouch!!" she whined. "That's hurt." she mumbled rubbing her forehead as she slowly glanced up."Cain?! What are you doing here?" she gasped. "Why do you look like this?"Cain stood before her, hair disheveled and eyes filled with worry from searching everywhere. His uneven breathing and tense expression made it clear he had been looking for her desperately. Yet, the moment his gaze locked onto hers, relief flooded openly in his eyes, as he let out a sigh."Cai...He interrupted her by pulling her into a tight hug which she returned, slowly patting his back. He tightened the hug, as he was afraid that release her would make her disappear.Though tight, Aria remained calm and slowly allowed him to calm down."I searched everywhere for you?" he muttered, still hugging her with his eyes close– although he

Aria let out a soft, low breath as she carefully placed her cup on the table, the laughter from the joyous people and music continued around her."I'll be back," she murmured to Cain, offering him a small smile."Where are you going?" he asked."I want to pick up something and it's a secret. You will see it later." she responded still maintaining her smile.He nodded, his attention briefly following her retreating figure before he was pulled back into conversation by the elders around him.Not far from them, Alpha Kael watched.The moment he saw her walk away from the crowd, a slow smirk curled at the corner of his lips, dark satisfaction flickering in his gaze. He lifted his cup lazily, taking a final sip before setting it aside with quiet finality.Then he rose gently, with the smirk still plastered across his face.Without a word to anyone, he moved through the crowd, walking pass everyone yet his eyes never left Aria's figure as she walked ahead, unaware of the fact that he was of

As Alpha Kael's voice rang out, rich with authority."Let the festival begin", the courtyard erupted into life.Drums beat louder, laughter rose, and dancers moved with renewed energy under the glowing crescent moon.No one was left out from the joyous celebration. Everyone seemed to forget about the mysterious killer and the fact that they could be attacked on a day like this.Amidst the celebration, Kael's gaze shifted– it moved slowly across the crowd then stopped on a maid.Just like every other maid, she carried a tray of drinks, serving everyone she came across. But unlike them, she wasn't at ease. Her fingers fidgeted restlessly against the tray, her grip tightening and loosening as though she was trying to steady herself. Her steps were careful, almost hesitant, and though her head was bowed, there was tension written all over her.Like someone forced into something she could not escape. And when Kael's eyes locked with her, she froze unable to look away. Her heart pounded har
