LOGINLilith povMy heart dropped.She was a Moonburn?She wasn’t from Fangspire. She had just appeared in the packhouse one day. No one ever really knew where she came from. So she…she was from the Moonburn tribe.The ones who were wiped out years ago at the hands of—My stomach tightened.“Verek…” I breathed.Lora’s expression didn’t change.“That’s right,” she said quietly. “Verek.” She stepped back slightly, like the memories themselves were too heavy. “When I was eight years old, he came to our village,” she said. “He came alone at first. He spoke like a man offering salvation. Wealth. Safety. He said he would give us a large pack after his plans succeeded. After he became king of all packs”Her lips curled slightly.“All he wanted was for the Moonburns to join him. Because we were strong. He wanted us to be rogues ” Her voice hardened. “But the elders refused. They chased him out. They called him evil. They said they would not stain their hands with blood.”Lora’s gaze lowered.“He l
Lilith pov“Lilith… Lilith, wake up. You have to wake up and fight. Fight to protect the people you love. Wake up, Lilith! Your father, your father is—”My eyes snapped open.I lurched forward with a sharp gasp, air tearing into my lungs like I had been drowning but the moment I moved, the chains snapped tight. Cold metal bit into my skin, yanking me back harshly as a choked breath escaped me. My chest heaved, struggling to draw in air, my body trembling as pain tore through me—hot, relentless, like fire surging through my veins.But I barely felt it. My mind was somewhere else.“M…Mother…”Her face flashed through my thoughts, she had been dressed in white, eyes filled with something I had never seen before.Fear. Desperation. Tears.“You father… your father is—”I squeezed my eyes shut, trying to grasp the words, to hear it again, to finish it but it slipped through me.I had woken up before she could say it.My fingers curled weakly behind me, my breath uneven as a tremor ran throu
Claude pov“There was a story I loved when I was a child.” My voice cut through the chaos, calm, almost thoughtful. “I remember it too well.”“Ahhh, my hand! My hand!”The scream tore through the air. I didn’t even blink.“Every night,” I continued, as though I was having a normal conversation as the rogue dropped to his knees in front of me, clutching what remained of his arm, his severed hand still twitching in my grip, blood smeared across my face as his eyes locked onto mine in pure terror.“Without fail, I made the old man read it to me. If he didn’t” I tilted my head slightly, watching him, “I wouldn’t sleep.” A low chuckle slipped from my lips. “I’d just lie there. Staring. Waiting.”My foot came down his head.A sickening crack.Silence.“A stubborn child, don’t you think?”A blur passed me—Silas and Lucien. They moved in and out of existence like shadows. One moment beside me, the next already behind another rogue. Bodies dropped before the mind could even register death. It
Lucien povAuthor’s Note: Lucas is the Alpha currently working under Verek. He is the one whose beta disrespected Lucien, and Lucien cut out his tongue. The traitor.***“I miss her! Couldn’t we have taken her with us? I can’t deal with this anymore. I need my Lilith with me.”That was Claude’s irritating voice again, groaning dramatically as he slumped against the car window, eyes closed, blonde hair falling messily over his face. He looked half-dead, as though life itself had lost all meaning.Yet—My eyes remained fixed on the chessboard before me.Cold. Dark. Unmoving.I didn’t spare him a single glance.For a moment, the car was filled with nothing but the dull clatter of wheels against stone and Claude’s endless moaning. The air was thick with tension, suffocating in its silence.Then, without a word, I reached forward and picked up my knight, sliding it across the board and placing it before Silas’s bishop, taking his piece in one smooth move.Across from me, Silas sat with one
Lilith povEverything felt dizzy.I couldn’t breathe.It felt like I was drifting in and out of a haze, sinking deeper into a dark place that refused to let go, no matter how hard I fought to stay conscious. My eyelids fluttered closed, then open again, my vision blurry at the edges. I couldn't see anything clearly, but faint words cut through the fog, barely reaching my ears.“Are you saying we shouldn’t really kill her?! She killed Ivy and made Isla this way. My mate keeps repeating that her sister's death was her fault, wanting to kill herself because of what this bitch said. Let’s kill her before things get worse, Leo. You didn’t fight her... she’s scary, way scarier than the leader.”My eyelids fluttered again, struggling to keep them open, my limbs too weak to move. My throat felt dry, like I couldn’t summon the strength to speak, and I just sat there, bound, the ropes digging painfully into my skin. The darkness pulled at me again, like gravity itself. But in that haze, I saw t
Drevena pov Isla dropped instantly to the ground, gasping as she hit it. Her hands flew to her throat, rubbing at it desperately while she coughed, eyes already burning with rage. Her fangs bared fully now as a low, shaking growl tore from her chest. And then, they moved again. Both of them. George and Isla charged towards me with no hesitation this time. The air snapped tight as they lunged again from opposite sides, trying to crush me between them in one clean strike. I exhaled softly and chuckled, shifting just slightly to the side just as George’s claws tore through empty space where I had been standing a fraction of a second ago. At the same time, I tilted my head back, letting Isla’s strike pass so close it cut the air above my throat. My feet barely moved, my hands stayed loose. Calm. Almost bored. “Mm…” I hummed softly, glancing between them as they immediately adjusted, turning sharply to face me again. “That’s better.” A small smile curved my lips. “But still slo
Lilith pov How do I even begin to explain this situation? I was laid out on the bed, breathing heavily, legs spread wide and open for one of the most dangerous Alphas in the pack while his face, oh goddess, his face was just inches away from my soaked panties. With just one swipe, Claude could
I couldn’t sleep.My body felt hot, as if it were on fire. I was restless, every inch of me aching.Two days had passed since I participated in the ritual, and the outcome wasn’t at all what I had expected. I had survived, walked out alive despite the fact that my head had been seconds from rolling
Lilith povSeraphina.As I stared at her, a rush of emotions hit me all at once—hatred, anger, disbelief and my grip tightened around the notepad and pen as my smile slipped away.She sat there, staring at me with a smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes. Dressed in a pink dress, her hair perfectly
As Lucien fucked me, his hands gripping tightly at my waist, moving me as his dick slid in and out of me, I couldn’t help but think about the words Kael had once told me. He had said that Lucien was the oldest among the triplets. The most ruthless. The coldest. Kael told me he’d seen Lucien kill
