Chapter: 317 – Love Conquers AllPOV: LaurenI settled beside him, feeling the warm sand beneath my feet and following his gaze fixed on our children. Theodor was chasing after Noah, who could barely steady his little steps, while Alice clapped her hands, laughing, seated on a colorful towel. It was such a simple scene, yet so full of love, that it brought tears to my eyes.“This is my definition of paradise,” Henry murmured, his voice deep and soft, without taking his eyes off the kids. Then, he slowly turned his face to me, and his intense, silvery gaze softened when it met mine. “The only thing missing was you by my side.”“I’m sorry…” I whispered, letting a shy smile slip as I brought my hand to his face, caressing the line of his jaw. “I needed some time alone to think.” I leaned in and captured his lips in a slow, affectionate kiss. I felt the warmth and familiarity of that touch, and as

Chapter: 315 – A FINAL STANDPOV: HENRYMy blood boiled.“Not me!” Lauren shouted, landing a precise knee strike to Ethan’s abdomen. He doubled over in pain, letting out a choked groan. She shoved him hard and tried to run, but a gunshot shattered the silence of the night, the sharp sound stopping her in her tracks.Lauren froze, raising her hands, her body rigid, her chest rising and falling with short, rapid breaths.“You’re still a disobedient bitch,” Ethan spat, his eyes burning with rage.That was the final straw. I stepped out from my hiding spot, my gun steady in my hands, the sight locked on his chest.“Drop the gun, Ethan, now. You’re surrounded,” I said, my voice hard and deep, each syllable laced with menace.He glanced at me, surprised. That was the moment Lauren needed. She ran toward me without hesitation, and I w

I stirred in bed, still groggy, and reached out for Lauren, searching for the warmth of her body.“Sweetheart, it’s time…” I mumbled, but my hand found only the cold, empty sheet.I snapped awake, my body tense, and sat up abruptly. Furthermore, I glanced at the alarm clock, which read two in the morning.“Why the hell is it going off at this hour?” I grumbled, shutting off the annoying noise with a sharp movement.When I turned on the bedside lamp, my eyes were drawn to a folded piece of paper left on the nightstand.“What’s this?” I murmured, my voice hoarse and laced with unease, running a nervous hand through my hair before grabbing the paper. As I unfolded and read it, my eyes widened, sleep vanishing instantly. My entire body heated with a mix of anger and worry. “Lauren… what have you done?”The note, scribbled with the haste I recognized in the shaky strokes of her handwriting, re

Chapter: 313 – THE DESPERATION OF THE EX-HUSBANDPOV: LAURENAfter that chaotic night with Violet, the house’s security was tightened. Automatic gates, alarms, and 24-hour surveillance. Even so, the trauma kept me from sleeping. To try to ease my mind, I decided to write. The words started to flow, and for the first time, I seriously considered publishing a book. A raw, real account of my life and how I gained children who, though not mine by blood, became my reason for living, making me feel like a mother even before my own daughter was born.While I was reviewing what I’d written, my phone buzzed on the table. The number was unknown. My body froze for a few seconds, a wave of alertness washing over me.“Who could that be?” I murmured, my breathing heavy and my hands sweating.I took a deep breath, tapped the screen, and brought the phone to my ear.“Hello?” My voice came out low, hesitant.On the other end, an eerie silence. My heart raced.“We need to talk, Lauren,” a male voice said quickly, laced with tension from the other sid

But for now… please, let me take care of him for you. Just until you’re okay.”She squeezed her tear-filled eyes shut and pressed her nose into the baby’s hair, breathing deeply as if she wanted to hold onto that moment forever.“He’s so beautiful…” she murmured, her voice choked with emotion, kissing his forehead with trembling tenderness. “He’s beautiful, isn’t he?”My heart ached at the fragility in her voice.“Yes, Violet… he’s absolutely beautiful,” I replied in a near whisper, keeping my gaze steady on hers.“He has my dad’s nose, you know?” she said suddenly, her red-rimmed eyes gleaming as she looked at me. “And my mom’s smile…”“Really? That’s wonderful, Violet,” I agreed softly, taking another cautious step forward. “Can I hold him

THE WRONG TWIN FOR THE RIGHT ALPHA
I slid under his arms, seeking a safe place to catch my breath. I noticed a playful smile on his lips, but I chose to ignore it.
"Will the transformation hurt?" I lowered my gaze and whispered.
"First, your bones start to break, sending you to the ground," his eyes were closed. "Then, thick fur will grow all over your body. The limb stretching, I think that's the most thrilling part of the pain." The Alpha teased with a flicker of his tongue before continuing. "Next comes the shortening of the snout and the development of sharp claws and fangs."
"Will I become irrational?" I covered my mouth, trying to control the knot that had formed in my throat. "How do you control it?"
Laughing, he had already reached me and pulled me close, digging his claws not too deeply into my hip, causing a painful moan.
"It takes strength, training, and having the goddess on your side, human..." He withdrew his claws, leaving only a long scratch, and returned to my chin, scratching it and collecting a drop of blood. He licked it and smiled. "Don't worry, I'll be here throughout your trial..."
"To make sure I die?" With tears in my eyes, I took a few more steps towards his dangerous game, realizing that his breathing was slightly heavier.
"You remind me a lot of her," he murmured, pressing his forehead against mine. "To ensure your transformation doesn't get out of control and to witness the deity's choice." With more pressure on my forehead, he forced me to take a few steps back in pain.

Chapter: EPILOGUE“With the moon's shackles as a witness and the pack's roar as a guide, I entwine the destinies of the wolf and the Succubus. Sealing shadows, I weave the magical veil that will protect the beast, where the alpha's mind and the essence of the Succubus will merge in an indissoluble pact. May the raised veil be an impenetrable shield, where not even the shadows of temptation dare disturb lupine harmony. So be it, under the moonlight, sealed in eternity.” Years had passed since the last battle against the dark witch, a lapse of time that felt like an eternity without catching a glimpse of my beloved nephew. I stared at the sky tinted with orange hues by the sunset, heralding the imminent night that unfolded to make way for lunar majesty. A sigh escaped my lips as I closed my eyes at the riverbank, chanting a prayer of protection to the ancestors, imploring them to safeguard my descendant wherever his journey might lead him. I wished for him to find peace and love, yearning for a day when

We were in a stunning garden in front of a lake filled with fish, accompanied by ancient songs that filled the air. The pack leader stood, extending his hands to help me up.“Where are we?” I asked, raising my eyebrows, perplexed.“I believe we have entered the afterlife of our ancestors...” he replied, examining the surroundings where only the melodies echoed. “Someone brought our souls here!”“You're right, King Lycan, it was I who summoned you!” We turned in the direction of the voice echoing behind us; it was Phillipa, smiling gently. “Daughter.”She approached to hug me, but I took a step back, standing behind the alpha, who wrinkled his nose and growled at my mother.“I'm sorry... I shouldn't...” Phillipa whispered.“Why did you bring us here?” Harvey inquired firmly, his voice sharp.“Calm down, Lycan. I can assure you that my intentions are genuine,” Phillipa sighed, turning her gaze towards me. “Sophie, please, can you at least

Shadowy hands emerged from the rift, grabbing the beast's paws and pulling with force; it roared, attempting to resist. Harvey grabbed my arms, still with closed eyes:“My essence... the beast!” He fainted again, his almost transparent life thread visible as a line, connecting to the beast.“I understand, Alpha, I understand...” I kissed his forehead, releasing him and allowing the hole to pull me, feeling the force of the rift.The beast held me tightly, grabbing my wrists. “Are you mad, Hybrid?” The beast roared. “You'll be consumed by darkness as soon as you pass through the rift.”I smiled at the creature, which widened its eyes in shock.“I will save both of you, close the rift, and bring Nyxara to be by your side... Now I understand.” I sighed, smiling. “You were never the curse; you were the alpha's essence; you came as a guardian, but the shadows corrupted you before.”

Suddenly, a deafening roar made the ground tremble. As I opened my eyes again, I witnessed King Lycan staggering and speaking with difficulty, addressing the witch.“You need to get up, Hybrid...” a voice resonated through the wind. “He won't endure for much longer!”“Harvey...” I whispered, trying to lift my body. I felt magic swirling from head to toe, caressing me gracefully and dispelling some of the drowsiness that afflicted me.The Alpha's roar was thunderous, followed by a silence that seemed to freeze everything around.

Oh, we'll have fun with her!” roared the beast in my mind, eagerly.In our werewolf form, we were possessed by a fierce demon, thirsty for blood and war. The dark witch shuddered subtly, summoning various creatures of darkness to attack us, in a desperate attempt to stop our advance towards her!“Hold us back! I need time with the hybrid!” shouted the dark witch.“Don't even think about it!” I exclaimed, leaping over the creatures and stopping in front of the she-wolf, who struggled not to completely faint.“Alpha...” Sophie murmured with difficulty.“Don't worry, we'll protect her!” Despite the mixture of voices, she smiled upon realizing that the Beast and I were working together.“If you want my mate, you'll have to face us!”“Ah, s

Her dull eyes were even more drained, and the skin more deteriorated, with dark veins bulging from her neck.“You look terrible, witch!” taunted the Lycan king.“Cursed wolf, I've never been better... And your son, how is he? Oh, yes, he has become a puppet of our king!” She laughed, provoking a loud growl from me, displaying my fangs. “Oh, Luna, calm down; soon you will join us!”“What do you mean by that?” the Alpha demanded.“As you can see, my shell can no longer contain my powers; I need a new one.” The dark witch amused herself. “And now that the Shadow King has obtained a toy more powerful than you, hybrid, I can use her as I please!”“Over my dead body.” I roared th

In my reverie, I found myself in the midst of a grandiose temple, meticulously detailed, so vivid it seemed more than a mere creation of the mind.A sudden movement caught my attention. Through the main gate, I saw an indistinct figure gliding silently. Before I could make out more, a whistle sliced through the air. It wasn’t an ordinary sound; there was something supernatural and haunting about it. The whistle echoed like a ghostly wail, sending shivers down my spine. It was a call, my name uttered in an almost ethereal manner, coming from an undefined direction.“Callie… Callie… You must fulfill the agreement…” the voice said sinisterly, as the marked spot on my body lit up.My body wouldn’t respo

Besides, I’m just giving you affection,” I murmured hoarsely, kissing the top of her head and pulling her hips closer. “I like your scent.”“I like yours too; it makes me feel safe,” Callie commented, yawning. “You’re so warm.”Rubbing her face against my chest, she nestled into my arms as if she had always done so.

Since that cursed day when Hunter had taken everyone I loved. Perhaps it was the same amount of time since I had received an affectionate, complicit touch, a tender moment! The baby kicked again, squirming, and I found myself imagining the future, being a father and a mate. It was more than I deserved.My mother would have been the most doting grandmother; my father, without a doubt, would have been one of those grandpas who sneaked sweets, a secretive friend, and a second father who disciplined.

I told you, it’s better if we don’t get involved,” I said firmly, despite the pulsing deep within me. Being so close to this man was dangerous, and I knew it. “We can’t…”I reinforced in a whisper as his lips neared mine, brushing against them.

THE CEO AND THE APPRENTICE
I lifted my gaze to meet his unwavering one; his eyes were enigmatic, just like his dominant posture. He had an enviable and captivating physique, with well-defined muscles that accentuated the perfect cut of his suit. His greenish eyes, tan skin, and slightly curly hair, styled professionally, completed his look. He was truly a stunning man.
“Finished admiring me, miss?” With a teasing tone, a charming smile appeared on his lips. The CEO was undoubtedly tempting.
“Sir...” I cleared my throat, trying to regain my composure and searching for words to escape that uncomfortable situation. “The content is not appropriate to be read aloud; please understand!”
“That, I will decide!” He leaned back in his executive chair, watching me calmly as he savored a sip of his favorite whiskey. “I'm waiting.”
“I apologize, sir, but I can't do it. You can fire me!” I turned away, ready to leave the office hastily, when his strong hands gripped my wrist, about to pull the door handle.
He carefully watched my reaction and then smiled.
“Apprentice…” The CEO approached me seductively, causing me to step back a few paces until I was cornered against the wall. He surrounded me with his arms and brought his lips close to my ear, whispering, “There is so much potential in you; I will mold you!”
Biting lightly on the tip of my ear, I felt a shiver run through my body. With the tips of his fingers, he traced the outline of my face with his nails before pressing his lips with his thumb, gently parting them. Moving even closer, he pressed his body against mine, making my heart race and my breathing erratic.

Against all odds, he had achieved remission, and his prognosis was surprisingly positive. He was getting better, almost miraculously. Excited, I rushed to get him and bring him back into our lives.

At the bottom of the envelope, there was a letter addressed to me, written in his elegant handwriting:“My sweet Elisabeth, if you received this letter, I'm afraid my time has come. You will probably hate me for how I chose to handle this, but I need you to know that I never wanted to hurt or upset you. In a cowardly and selfish way, I decided not to tell you my biggest secret. You had already suffered so many losses and so much pain that it didn't seem fair to put you through another turbulent time.”“What is Patrick talking about?” I bit my lip, growing nervous with every word, and continued reading.“I hid the truth about my joining the army.

At the altar, Patrick Morgan stood out in the wedding setting with his imposing presence. He was tall and dark-haired, and he exuded charm and elegance in his tailored suit. The dark fabric enhanced his skin tone, and the white shirt contrasted with his complexion, creating a sophisticated and attractive look. His brown hair was impeccably styled, and his deep blue eyes seemed to pierce my soul, locking onto mine. His sculpted body showcased his good physical shape, confirming his sensual aura.

The relief of knowing Greg was alive, fighting to recover, barely dissipated the anguish consuming me. As I put on the black mourning clothes, my reflection in the mirror revealed a profound sadness, where the eyes of that little girl who had lost her parents so long ago resurfaced in my gaze. My only family, my entire world, and my best friend, mother, and confidante had left without me being there to comfort her in her most frightening moment. The guilt for not being by her side tore at my heart. The most important person in my life was taken from me, leaving an unbearable void, an overwhelming loneliness.
