LOGINLilith povMy heart clenched."No... no..." Claude's voice followed immediately after, panicked and trembling. "That's not possible. No. No!"Fear, grief, and desperation poured from every word.Slowly, I opened my eyes. I took a deep breath and carefully lowered my father's body onto the ground. The moment I stood, my body swayed. The wind brushed against me and I felt it.My soul.It was disappearing.Erasing itself from existence.I lowered my gaze. My fingers were becoming transparent. Golden particles drifted from my skin, dissolving into the air like scattered starlight. I stared at them for only a second before turning around and walking, step by step, toward the three men kneeling in the distance.Toward Lucien.Toward Silas.Toward Claude.Toward the people I had been destined to leave behind.Silas and Claude lifted their heads the moment I stopped before them, and their expressions shattered what remained of my heart."Lilith..."Claude's lips trembled. He was crying. The m
Lilith povIt was all because of one man. Because of one man's greed, my parents died. Because of one man's ambition, the late Alpha died. Because of one man's madness, countless people suffered. Because of one man's decision to gather monsters around him, to nurture them, to command them, entire lives had been destroyed before they were ever given a chance to bloom.Lora, her tribe, her family. So many packs. The children who lost their families. The mothers who buried their sons. The fathers who buried their daughters. It was all because Samuel existed but as I stared at him, trembling before me, something became painfully clear.What if Samuel had never existed? What if he had been born kind? What if there had been another version of him? A better version. A version that never became a monster. Would the world have been different? Would there be no suffering? Would there be no innocent people crying somewhere?No.There would still be someone. Someone greedy. Someone cruel. Som
Samuel pov The golden dagger. She was fusing with it. For the first time, my mind didnāt keep up. It didnāt calculate, didnāt predict, didnāt try to make sense of what I was seeing. It just⦠stopped. Empty. Just like that. Like it had done once before, years ago, when my parents stood in front of me trying to teach me what emotions were supposed to look like. Back then it had been blankness, a hollow absence where reactions were meant to be. But this time was different. This time, something forced its way through that emptiness. My chest tightened. My pulse kicked violently against my ribs. My body locked up in place as if it had forgotten how to move. Fear. Was this really fear? I tilted my head slightly, staring, eyes widened in a way I didnāt even realize I was doing, watching her like I couldnāt decide what I was feeling. Her body jerked violently as the golden dagger dissolved, no longer a weapon but a surge of pure light pouring straight into her chest as if it ha
Lilith povFlashback.A few hours earlier, before the carnival."Beta Lilith! I can't wait to have fun today! I know this is going to be the best day ever!"Lora's excited voice echoed through the room as Theila dragged her toward the door while Verya followed behind with an amused smile. The moment I agreed to attend the carnival, Lora had practically beamed with excitement, laughing as Theila pulled her out of the room.I couldn't help smiling as I watched them leave.Slowly, I rose from my chair to get ready but thenā"Lilith."I froze."Drevena?"For a moment, I thought I had imagined it. Something was different, her voice. The usual arrogance, mockery, and pride were gone. For once, she sounded anxious. Almost human, slowly, I sat back down."Drevena?" Concern slipped into my voice. "What is wrong?"Several seconds passed before she finally spoke."Do you know why the Moon Goddess chose you to be my human?"I blinked."What?""Out of every human in existence, why did she choose y
Lilith povāYou are the tripletsā mate.āThe triplets' mate.Samuel's voice rang across the battlefield, far louder than it should have been, echoing through the air until it seemed impossible for anyone not to hear it. I knew they had. I could feel it. Lucien. Silas. Claude. Their gazes landed on me all at once, heavy enough to feel like physical weight pressing against my skin.The words echoed inside my head again and again.The triplets' mate.For a moment, I didn't react. I didn't move. I didn't speak.I just stood there.The Alphas looked as though they wanted to say something. Lucien's expression had gone completely still. Silas looked ready to step forward. Claude's jaw had tightened so hard I thought he might crack a tooth.And Samuel...Samuel simply watched me.His eyes glittered with amusement, his grin widening slowly as he studied my face. He was waiting for it. Waiting for the shock. The betrayal. The disgust. The hatred. He wanted to see me break beneath the weight of
Lilith pov āWhat are you most afraid of, Lilith?āIf anyone asked me that question, I already had an answer.I wouldnāt even need to think about it.It wasnāt death.It wasnāt sickness.It wasnāt pain.It was helplessness.What terrified me the most was the feeling of helplessness. The feeling of standing there and watching the people I loved suffer while being unable to do anything. Unable to protect them. Unable to save them.The feeling of being weak.A scream ripped from my throat.Raw rage surged violently through every vein in my body as I launched myself at Samuel without hesitation, the ground beneath my feet cracking apart from the force.My hand shot straight toward his chest, toward his heart. My eyes burned red with murderous intent, every inch of me shaking with fury and SamuelāSamuel laughed.A wide grin stretched across his face as he stared at me with twisted amusement, like my rage itself entertained him.This manā¦This monsterā¦.He was the reason so many people died
Lilith pov What had happened? Or rather, what was happening? Everything had moved so fast that my brain was struggling to keep up. My mind felt fuzzy, my heart pounded so hard that blood rushed through my veins, as I lay on the bed, frozen. I couldnāt see. I couldnāt move. I couldnāt sp
Lilith povMy mind was spinning.My heart was pounding.My chest heaved, my entire body trembling so hard that my core instinctively clenched and fluttered around his dick, desperate to take him in, aching to feel every inch.And fuck, I did.I felt every twitch, every pulse, every vein inside me.
Lilith pov Impossible. I stepped back at her words, eyes widening, fixed on her as I waited, half-expecting her to laugh at my expression, to tease me for even thinking she was serious. But she didnāt. Her expression stayed the same, the same mischievous glint in her eyes, the same amused smir
Lilith pov I was panting, panicking. My chest felt tight, my breathing slow and suffocating as I sat on the bed, one hand clutching my chest, trying to breathe. Theila sat beside me, her worried eyes fixed on me as she spoke, but I couldnāt hear her. Everything was too overwhelming. The white
