Chapter: Together Forever Cassidy sighed as she walked out of the place, her phone ringing right in her hand. She got to a quiet place before she picked up, her voice cheerful,"Hey." She muttered."You look really enchanting in that green dress, Cassy." His voice came out think, hard and in a murmur.Cassidy's brows furrowed tightly as she turned around, looking for where he might be, "Aren't you in Greece right now?" She asked. He had told her he would be travelling after she'd invited him for Alexandra's wedding. He wasn't supposed to be here today and she knew it. It was all because his father and Stella had decided to move to Greece and leave New York, he had decided to escort them before coming back to reside here. So....Sam was not supposed to be here right now."I'm right behind you, Cassidy Miles." He said and she spun around, her hair brushing past his face. He ended the call, pocketing his hands as he stared at her."Cassy." He muttered. Her eyes brightened in a smile as she pulled herself rather th

Chapter: Wedding "We'd still be going to Disney." Alexa said at 9 pm when Jade and Jace were going upstairs to their rooms to sleep. Jade ran back down the stairs and Liam smiled, knowing she was totally excited. Alexandra had called him in the afternoon and had updated him on all the details. He was the one who suggested the travelling to Disney land and he wanted it to fall on their honeymoon. Well, good news was, Alexa simply agreed."Are you serious, mummy?" Jade asked, hands clasped in curiosity, placed underneath her chin. She stared at Alexa, all the believing faith packed in her eyes, hoping it wasn't just a dream."Yeah, Jade. We are going to Disney next two weeks. Your daddy and I are going to get married again.""Aarghghhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Jade screamed jumping up on her feet with an excited energy. Jace's eyes widened as he stepped down from the stairs and staggered backwards to look at his dad, a small smile on Liam's face."Daddy, is this true? You and mommy are going to get married

Chapter: Results, Not hersDaisy's mom scoffed lightly and smirked as she got into her car, driving off. She wouldn't dare to exchange words with Alexandra not when that could easily jeopardize Daisy's future with her kids. The kids would sort each other out.Alexa smiled softly at Daisy and looked at the kids, "I didn't't believe you guys could stand up like that and defend your friend. It's really beautiful." She said and Jade smiled at her."Why did you come to school after daddy dropped us?" Jace asked immediately."Your daddy forgot to collect your results for the session. It's being shared to the parents today. Jade, let see how well you will perform." Alexa said. She didn't really have to worry about Jace for the time being because he was a smart head but Jade...."Mommy. You know a lot have been happening these past months. I have been really stressed before my exams so don't get too scared when you see my result. Don't get mad either or angry. Just smile and pat me on the head once if I really failed

Chapter: A friend Jace sighed slowly as he walked into his classroom, his bag at his back as he walked in. The noises in the class stopped a little and he directly walked to his seat without even minding anyone beside him."Jace!!" Jade's voice rang in his ears when he'd barely had his seat and he sighed. She had been talking since they got into the car and even when they got to school, he had had to slip away from her so he would get into his class quickly, but here she was again."Jace?" Her face showed through the door as she peeped in. Her eyes brightened when she saw him and smirk curved her lips upwards."Guess what?" She asked loudly and he tilted his head to get a better look so he wouldn't have to get up from his seat."Daisy just transferred. She's not joining us for the new session.""What? How did you find out about that?""She told Alice this morning and Alice told me. She's actually leaving with her mom right now." Before Jade's words landed completely, she felt the whoosh of air beside

Chapter: Nyxoria THREE MONTHS LATER"Let's congratulate Alexandra Chapman, the owner of the new Fashion Brand, Nyxoria." The announcer said and Alexandra walked up to the podium, her face a smile as she stood in front of the mic. "Thank you so much." She muttered."I couldn't have done this without you all. My family, I love you all. My friends who have been with me for the past few years, I love you. Liam Jordans, thank you for being right there with me. Jace and Jade, my kids, I'm so glad we all made it through. I won't have made it through without you all." She said and looked at everyone for a while."Ladies and Gentlemen, I want to welcome you to the world of Nyxoria. As we stand here tonight, we walk in a new part of enchantment through jewelry designs. From the details of our necklaces to the intricate designs of even the small cuffs and rings, we would you show you what it means to look heavenly. Nyxoria is not just a brand to be made beautiful, it is something to be experi

Chapter: Leukemia Once at the hospital, they all walked to the doctor's office who ran a fast test on Jace and returned quickly with the results."Is he okay? A fever?" Alexandra was impatient but Liam squeezed her hand giving her comfort for a while, at least, until she heard,"It's more than that." The doctor said and sighed, licking his lips, "I don't know if I should tell you this right now.""Tell us." Liam said quickly, "At least, we have to know to do something quickly.""Jace needs a bone marrow transplant. He has high risk lymphoblastic leukemia." The doctor said and Alexa's hand fell down to her side in shock."Wh-what?" Liam's eyes went wide open."He's just a kid...how...how this is possible?""Sorry to say, but leukemia is usually found in children. We are glad it is a cancer we can fix, so all we need is a donor for the home marrow.""Use me." Liam quickly said."Mr Jordans, you are still healing. Your bones have not healed enough yet." The doctor advised against it."What about me? You

Chapter: Unexpected dinner parade ARIEL"Ariel. So," D'Leonardo cut the steak on his plate with precised measurement and concentration, you could tell he tortured people in this manner. His eyes moved up to me, "now that you are married to Delano, you can tell us why you tried to kill him at the party, can't you?"Everyone stared at me. His cousins and their parents, Colt and my father, even Delano. He has an expectant look on his face, like he wanted to see what I would use to cover up–but I wasn't stupid. Anyone could tell that D'Leonardo already knows the truth."He did business on my father's port, which is totally unacceptable," I said fiercely and I could see one of his cousins raised his eyes up, a smirk on his lips. I didn't care much about him. He seemed too stupid for me to bother. My age, maybe."Is?" D'Leonardo arched a brow, "Do you mean it's still inappropriate for him to do business there? I mean, you are married."I smiled skillfully, "Business should be separated from family. If Delano wish

Chapter: Family ARIELI smiled with no lesser pretension than what D'Caprico threw to me. My smile was graceful and perfect like what I have been trained to be. However, I knew I could never fit into the perfect mafia family. Girls were meant to be docile, quiet, obedient, I was not that type. I was not trained for marriage, I was trained for war. And they would never understand that. Glad, my father hadn't forced me to submission like other empires did, but even that was my choice."How are you doing?" "I'm fine," I replied sweetly, placing my hand on Delano's with nothing less than a sinful smile, "Delano has been treating me fairly okay. Just a day after marriage and I feel good."Delano let out a slight scoff of amusement and my fingers tightened on his shoulders in a warning mark.He'd better stop that sh*t right now."That's good, considering the fact that you wanted to kill him, just a week ago. I can say you guys really changed sides pretty fast. How does your fa

Chapter: Beauty DELANOShe took her time coming down the stairs.Measured steps. Perfect posture. Eyes straight ahead, on me. Like she wanted me to see her, but not enough to beg for it. A performance, tailored and precise. And I had to admit, she played the part well.The dress was deep emerald green, the kind of shade that caught the light like water on dark glass. Expensive fabric. Cut high on the neck, low on the back, hugging her waist like it had been tailored by a man who wanted to die for her. Classy. Strategic. Not made to seduce, but to be remembered. And it worked.It clung to her curves in all the right ways, but left just enough to the imagination. She wore power like perfume, soft, but laced with poison. Her hair was swept up, just a few strands left loose to soften her jawline. A calculated mess. I recognized the move. Hide the blade in beauty.I didn’t move. Just watched.She was beautiful, yes. But beauty didn’t mean much in our world. I’d seen diamond

Chapter: Unbridled hate ARIELI let out all my frustration into the punching bag in front of me, hitting it hardly with all the strength I could summon.*I don't care what deal you have with Saint, but you would never be able kill me. Not now, definitely not later.*Was that a challenge? Not being able to kill him? I was going crazy in the head trying to show him that I could actually do that. Too bad he wouldn't be able to remember who killed him after his death, but I'd make sure he captured my face when I'm stabbing him with the knife.I hissed as I gave the punching bag a last blow and it shook under the impact. I held it to keep it steady and after it stopped moving widely, I stepped backwards.Idiot! Delano was an idiot! I released a deep breath as I removed the boxing pads and pulled my hair out of the high ponytail. Streaks of sweats went down my face and I wished that was my frustration leaking out from my skin pores. Reaching for the bottle of water on the beach,

Chapter: Games DELANO She sat across me in the white light, swirling her wine. I stirred the white liquid in my cup, without drinking."You look at me like you are waiting for something," I said without looking at her. "Maybe I am." She smiled, slow and venomous.I took a sip. Swallowed. Met her eyes."Cheap poison. Tastes like almonds."I watched the way her eyes widened and the cup in her hand shook faintly, in a way that if my eyes weren't on her, I wouldn't notice."You knew?"I leaned forward, voice low enough to send a warning. "I know everything, Ariel. Including how badly you want me dead."She dropped the cup of wine on the table between us and rose sharply, but I caught her wrist. "Next time, darling, make it count.""Thanks for the advice," She smiled at me and pulled her hand away from my grip, walking up the stairs. The moment her presence disappeared, I dropped the cup on the table sharply, releasing a breath. I had taken just a sip but my stomach f

Chapter: Aware ARIELPersonally, I hated this part in weddings. Kiss the bride. Was it necessary?"Don't you dare...kiss me." I said when Delano covered the space between us. The annoying smirk remained on his face as he grabbed me closer by my waist. I felt his hand tightened around my waist and I blinked slightly, feeling my heart race the way, it shouldn't. It should be medically crazy for your heart to race as fast as this when you are in front of the one man you vowed to kill."Stop me." He dared. I bit my inner lips when he bent his head and brushed his lips against my ear, "This would not be our last kiss." My resolve not to kiss him died down instantly as he covered my lips with his, prying his tongue into my lips. It was meant to be dead, without affection, but it went deeper than that, in front of the crowd. When they clapped, I got my senses back and pressed my hands against his chest, pushing him backwards instantly. He smiled, his eyes glinting with am

Chapter: The endAnna stood before the mirror, hands trembling slightly as she touched the fabric of her dress. It was red—deep, warm, almost the color of dried petals or freshly spilled wine. It wasn’t what most brides would wear, and that was exactly why she chose it. White was for innocence. For clean slates. For stories that hadn’t yet begun.But hers had already been written in fire, blood, and love. In betrayal, in trials and many other things.The dress clung to her in the right places, her protruding stomach showing visibly, before it gave way to a wide bundle from her thighs downwards."You look pretty," Sandra said behind her."Do you think Xandros would like the dress?""Why wouldn't he? Every color looks right on you." Sandra said as she ran her hands over the necklaces on the table and then she picked the one with the name, Anna."Xandros gave me that,""Shows." Sandra grinned widely as she walked behind Anna and helped her fix the necklace."O M G." Wyatt rushed into the room, with Anita

Chapter: The rest“I don’t like it,” the old wolf muttered.Xandros didn’t even glance his way. “You don’t have to like it. You just have to stand there and keep your mouth shut.”Korin grumbled, folding his arms, his gray beard twitching. “The witches burned my great grand uncle’s territory. Twice.”“And wolves tore my grandmother's sister in half,” Gaelle snapped from the opposite side of the field, where the witches had gathered beneath the oaks. “So if you want to count bodies, we’ll be here all night.”Anna sighed and stepped between them, her shoes crunching on the dry grass. “This isn’t about who bled more.”“It should be,” Korin muttered.“No. That’s why it always falls apart,” Anna said, softer now. “We keep trying to measure suffering instead of ending it.”There was a long, heavy pause.Around them, witches in layered robes murmured to one another. Wolves stood in half-circles, tense and watchful. Most looked uncomfortable—none had put away their distrust yet, even if they’d left their weapo

Chapter: Marked Gaia’s house wasn’t grand, large or ostentatious. It wasn't even up to half of the land Khaos took. Neither was the building as big as even the library at Khaos.It was hidden in the woods where the trees grew thick and the wind smelled like damp moss and wild herbs. The gravel path crunched beneath their shoes as they approached, and Sandra felt something shift in her chest. She couldn’t explain it, but it was as though the land itself recognized her presence.It felt like home. Comfy.And secure. So close she could practically feel the warmth seeping into her skin.“This is yours?” she asked softly as Gaia opened the door with a simple twist of his wrist.He nodded, stepping aside for her to enter. “Built it myself. Every stone, every plank.”"You built it?" She gasped."Yep. There was no wars during those times and I had nothing to do as Xandros's beta."Sandra paused just inside the threshold. The house was warm and quiet. Not just quiet in sound, but quiet in energy. The kind o

Chapter: Alone The lodge nestled deep within the territories was as far from the hospital and Khaos as the moon was from the sea. Built of stone and cedar, it breathed with warmth and quiet, surrounded by thick pines and the steady whisper of a stream just beyond the hill. No one approached without permission. Nobody came unless summoned. No guards posted nearby. Here, there were no enemies, no threats, only silence, and time.Anna leaned against the balcony railing, wrapped in a soft robe that smelled of lavender and mountain mint. The wind was gentle tonight, teasing strands of her dark hair across her cheek. She let it. Her skin still ached where Kalista’s magic had burned through her, but the pain no longer felt like it belonged to her, it was fading, piece by piece, along with the weight of that long, terrible battle.Inside, the lodge flickered with low candlelight. Runes carved into the beams pulsed softly, woven there by the witch council and Anita to protect the child in her womb. The baby

Chapter: Recovery The dust had barely settled.The hallway that had once echoed with medical chatter and squeaky wheels now stood in eerie silence—scorched, half-collapsed, with crackling fluorescent lights hanging like vines from the ceiling. The tiled floor was smeared with blood, some of it black with magic, some still steaming where Kalista had bled and burned.Anna lay cradled in Xandros’s arms at the far end of the corridor, both of them surrounded by the aftermath of war.The beast had not left him.Though his claws had retracted and fur vanished, Xandros still breathed like the wolf. Chest rising and falling in deep, uneven gulps. His shoulders trembled, not with weakness, but with the savage intensity of barely-contained instinct.The moment the doctors rounded the corner, responding to the emergency alarms.He turned.Snarled.And they froze.There were five of them. A trauma team in white coats, rubber-soled shoes, and blue gloves. None of them looked older than forty. Not one dared take ano

Chapter: Kalista Anna’s body trembled with the aftershock of the blast. Smoke hung thick in the air. Xandros lay crumpled against a bent hospital bed, blood trailing from the corner of his mouth. His Lycan form was retreating beneath torn flesh, unconscious and unmoving.And Kalista turned to her.She floated several feet above the floor now, her robes curling like smoke, her fingers crackling with malignant magic.“Now,” Kalista said, her voice like crushed velvet, “it’s just us.”Anna’s feet moved before her mind did. Her body shifted into a battle stance her modern self didn’t recognize, but her soul remembered. Even the ache of her womb dulled in the face of rising, buried power. Her breath calmed.She had never fought Kalista in this life.But Zaekyr had, once. She remembered.Kalista’s smile faded. “You still reek of fear.”Anna raised her chin. “Not fear. Memory.”“You’re not Zaekyr,” Kalista snapped, her voice echoing unnaturally. “She’s dust. A footnote. You’re just a frightened little girl
