LOGINLilith povāPlease⦠take me, Lilith.āA groan slipped from Lucienās lipsālow, deep, and wrecked, cutting through the night.The air thickened instantly, turning heavy, suffocating, charged with raw tension.My lips pressed against his neck, slow and deliberate, feeling the way his body reacted to me.The way I reacted to him.The way everything blurred, until there was nothing left but him.The tall, intimidating man beneath me.My back arched, a strained breath leaving me as he pushed into me, like he couldnāt help it.Like he was desperate.Just as I wanted him to be.My hand tightened around his throat, not enough to hurt, just enough to hold him there. A slow smile curved my lips as my teeth grazed his skin, dragging lightly, teasing.For a moment, the urge to let my fangs sink into him surged, wild and consuming but I held back.Instead, I pressed myself closer, letting him feel the heat of me, just enough to make his breath hitch.He shuddered.They watched.Silas and Claude, th
Lilith povHot.I felt so hot, like my whole body was on fire. My face burned, my body trembled, my eyes glassy as my breathing came slow and uneven, everything blurred at the edges but most of all⦠my inner thighs pressed tight together, my core slick, not from the water but from something deeper, something aching and restless.Was this because I was in heat?No. It wasnāt. I knew what that felt likeāsharp, insistent, a warning clawing through my mind, it felt primal, like I had to mate or die but this⦠this was different, like my body had taken over, like something inside me had snapped and all I could think about was one thing.Relief.I needed release. I needed to get this out of my system. I needed⦠them.A soft, breathless sound slipped from my lips as my arms tightened around Silasā shoulders while he carried me from the water. My face hovered near his ear, my nose brushing his skin as I nuzzled into him, his scent intoxicatingāaddictive in a way that made my head spin. Before
Claude povAn hour later.We were going to die.āEither the Alphas die or Lilith dies. If you mark her, she will meet her end. If you donāt, the three of you will meet yours. That is the real curse of the Moon Goddess⦠the true punishment given to you.āThose were the words Lilithās wolf had spoken.Those very words had been uttered to my brothers and me a few days ago.And when I heard them, my first reaction had been a cruel smile.Of course.It had been too good to be true.When I first heard that Lilith was our mate, I had felt a warmth I had never known before and suddenly, everything had become clear.The bond had always been there.From the very beginning, when that timid girl had walked into that room, willing to offer herself to my brothers and me, I had known, in that moment, that she was different.She wasnāt like the others.Something deep within me had stirred the instant our eyes met.So⦠I had allowed myself to hope.For the first time in a long while, I thought perhaps
Lilith povAwkward.That was the word I would use to describe this situation right now.It was so awkward.I sat on the picnic blanket, my face flushed, my heart still racing, my fingers fidgeting with the hem of my dress as the most breathtaking men sat before meāSilas in brown, Lucien in black, and Claude in white. None of them were wearing their usual suits today, only loose, baggy clothes that shifted softly in the wind.They looked mesmerizing.Sculpted like gods.We all knew that already.And the reason I was currently looking away from them wasnāt because I was shy, it was because of what I had said earlier.For Goddessās sakeā¦I couldnāt believe I had cried like an idiot and confessed that I loved them.Not only that, I had even asked them for permission to love them.The more I thought about it, the more embarrassed I felt.Especially when I remembered their reactions.Right after my confession, the Alphas had been stunned.Truly stunned.Claudeās mouth had almost touched the
Lilith povMy thoughts were scattered.My gaze was distant.My chest felt hollow.For a long moment, silence filled the air in the car untilāāLilith.āDravenaās voice slid through my mind.For a brief moment, her image flashed before me, and I saw her standing, her eyes fixed on me as she continued.āLet me tell you a little secret about the Moon Goddess.āHer voice carried a strange calmness.āThe goddess everyone loves⦠everyone respects. The goddess everyone relies on. The one they believe to be the most powerful being that exists.āShe paused slightly.āBut even she has a weakness.āMy eyes lowered slightly as I listened quietly, not saying a word.āShe has something she cannot fight against,ā Dravena continued.āAnd that⦠is fate.āHer voice echoed softly through my mind.āOnce a human is born, their fate is sealed from that very moment. Their life and their death are already written in stone but it is not written by the Moon Goddess. It is written by fate itself. Fate is a forc
Lilith povEmptiness.That was all I felt.No sorrow at the fact that my mother was gone. No closure that I had been able to see her before she died. No relief that she was finally at peace with my father once again.I just felt nothing.Not even the ache in my chest.Just⦠emptiness.It had been two days since my mother died. Two days since we buried her. Two days since I last shed those tears.And during those two days, I hadnāt left my room. I hadnāt done anything. I hadnāt spoken to anyone. I hadnāt eaten.I had locked myself inside, curled up on my bed, and simply stared at nothing, lost in my thoughts.I thought about everything I had been through.My fatherās death.Then my motherās suicide attempt, and all the desperate things I had done to try and save her, only for her to die in the end anyway.But most of allā¦I thought about what I was going to do now.Why I was still living.Still breathing.Still alive.Until two days ago, I had been using my mother as an excuse to keep
My breathing was heavy, shallow and uneven as I tried to take deep breaths. My eyes were fixed on the ground and as time seemed to slow, the only sounds I could hear were my harsh breathing and the slow ticking of the clock, growing more deafening with each passing second. I could feel Lucien's c
Lilith pov "Daelan's been craving these lips wrapped around our cock." An intense heat flooded through my body at his words, my breath hitched as his thumb traced slowly over my bottom lip, the light touch sending shivers of pleasure down my spine, making me tremble. Lucien's eyes stayed locked
Lucien's pov Control. What did it truly mean? Was it having everything and everyone in the palm of your hand? Holding the kind of power men spent lifetimes chasing, the kind women willingly surrendered themselves to? To stand above all at the very top? Or was it the ability to bend others to y
Claude's pov I was bored. Utterly bored. Leaning back against the seat, my eyes stayed fixed on the ceiling while my brothers, Lucien and Silas filled the space with their voices. Their conversation was just as dull as everything else right now. āIf Veyra is coming, then you shouldn't lose you
