Aria’s POV

By the time we were done talking about everything, Knox’s face was unreadable. His expression switched between thoughtfulness, worry and fury. His jaw was clenched, and the muscles in his cheek kept twitching every few seconds. Even though he was facing me, he wasn’t looking at me, he was staring over my shoulder, as if he was replaying everything in his mind over and over.

The silence between us lasted for a very long time. The air in the car felt thick and tense. I shifted slightly in my seat, waiting for him to say something, anything at all.

Finally, he lifted his eyes slowly to meet mine. His gray eyes burned with intensity. “So?” His voice was low and dangerous. “What do we do now?”

I swallowed. “We wait.”

His brow furrowed instantly. “Wait?” He nearly spat the word with disgust. “You’re telling me to sit on my ass and wait while the witch who cursed me, and dared to reach for you through your own damn mind, decides to crawl out of whatever pit she is in and strike ag

    Aria’s POV“It started when I closed my eyes to doze off earlier…” I hesitated, glancing at Knox, and I could see the way his eyes narrowed as he got ready to listen to everything I was about to say.“Go on,” he urged, folding his arms over his chest.I swallowed. “When I drifted off, I… wasn’t just dreaming. I was back in Lilith’s tomb.”He furrowed his eyebrows, giving me a puzzled look. “Lilith? Viktor’s mate? What the hell were you doing there?”“I don’t know, Knox,” I said with a sigh. “I just… found myself there. Someone wanted to talk to me.”He tensed instantly at my words, and he frowned. “Who the hell was that? And why did it have to be that tomb?”“It was Agnes, and it was because of that cursed stake.”Knox blinked once, then twice. “I’m sorry, who is Agnes?”‘Oh boy,’ Jade murmured in my head.I sighed. “Agnes is a powerful witch that you killed several years ago. You killed her some minutes before you killed Lilith.”His frown deepened, and his expression tightened.“She

    Aria’s POVThose words slammed into me like a physical blow. For a moment, I almost forgot how to breathe. My own power? No. That wasn’t possible. It couldn’t be.I blinked in shock and disbelief. “That’s… that’s impossible.” I spluttered. My voice cracked on the last word. She must be lying or something. It just couldn’t be.“Why?” Jade asked.“Because I’m a werewolf,” I snapped. “An omega, not a witch. I don’t have magic at all. Werewolves can’t heal people with a touch. That’s what witches do.”Jade snorted. “Are you sure about that?”Her tone sent a sliver of annoyance through me.“Of course I am!” I snapped. “Werewolves don’t have healing abilities.”She scoffed. “And you are so sure that you’re a werewolf?”I scowled. “No Jade, I’m a vampire, disguising myself as a werewolf for over twenty years.” I drawled sarcastically.She released an amused huff. “There’s no need to get all sarcastic on me. It was a simple question, Aria. No need to get defensive.”I rolled my eyes at her in

    Aria’s POVJade sighed, “Her plan… was me.”A cold shiver rolled down my arms at her ominous tone. “What do you mean?”“She didn’t just want me gone because I was a threat. She kept me because I wasn’t a mistake she wanted to erase. I was her contingency plan.” Her voice was filled with bitterness now. “If she ever died, she would have a way to come back. She made me her anchor.”My voice caught at that thought. I blinked in shock. “You mean—”Jade said flatly, like she was forcing herself to say it out loud. “Agnes’s plan was to use me as her bridge. Her way back into the world if she ever died. She made me her… vessel, like a backup body.”My stomach twisted. “So, she was going to—”“Possess me,” Jade finished for me. “Yes, not me as I am now, but me in my body. The body she hid away. My soul was supposed to stay sealed until the moment was right. All she needed was someone to open that vial and release my essence.”I swallowed. “And that someone turned out to be me.”“Yes,” She con

    Aria's POV“I don't know.”Something in Jade's voice made my stomach twist. It wasn’t just the words, it was the way she said them. Her voice was filled with defeat, like she had already gone through every possibility and come up empty.“She’s powerful,” Jade continued. “Too powerful. She’s my mother. I should know.”Dread ran down my spine. I had never heard Jade sound this way before.There was silence, then I asked.“Will you tell me everything now?”There was an even longer silence this time.The silence was so long that I thought maybe she wasn’t going to respond.I released a resigned sigh and stared outside, feeling disappointed.Then suddenly—“Okay.”It was just one word, but it hit me hard. Because after several months, Jade was finally going to tell me everything.“Okay,” Jade repeated, her voice was quiet. “I’ll tell you everything.”I sat back in the seat, my heart pounded hard in anticipation.I waited. I didn’t rush her.Jade had been keeping secrets since the moment sh

    Aria’s POV“Aria,” the witch said, her voice filled with impatience now. “Enough stalling. Choose. Your mate doesn’t have time.”Jade stepped forward. Her arms were no longer folded, and her smirk had faded entirely. “You have to let me go. You have to save your mate.”My hands clenched at my sides.I glanced between the two of them. The cold, calculating witch with that fake sugary smile, and Jade. She wasn’t looking at me now. She was staring at the ground with a stiff posture.She didn’t look as cocky as before. Her smirk had faded a long time ago.I narrowed my eyes as I stared at her intently. Suddenly, I saw something in her eyes. Fear. It was just a flicker. It was gone in a split second.But that flicker was all I needed.I stepped toward Jade slowly. “You’ve been trying to make me believe that you’re a traitor. But that’s not true, is it?”Jade didn’t meet my eyes. “Aria, make the deal.”“I’m not getting any younger. And very soon, your mate will wake you from sleep.” The wit
