LOGINLilith pov You know that feeling like you’ve been hit by a truck, or thrown off a tall building, only to realize it’s just a vicious hangover that makes your head feel like it's splitting open?Yeah… this was worse.Every inch of my body ached, heavy and sore, the kind of exhaustion that sank deep into my bones. Fragments of last night flickered through my mind—heat, blurred touches, voices, hands until everything had become too much and I’d slipped into darkness.And now…Now I was awake.Bruises and marks littered my skin, enough to make anyone stop and stare. Enough to make Theila and Lora’s eyes widen so much it looked like they might pop out.“Wow… Beta Lilith, were you with an animal last night?”Lora blurted out before she could stop herself, standing beside Theila with a tray in her hands.I froze.Sitting up slightly, the thin sheet barely covering my body, heat rushed up my neck, my face burning instantly.Animal?If only she knew…Not one.Three.The thought alone made my
Leo pov Author’s note: In case it isn’t clear, this is the POV of Verek’s assassin, the one who usually keeps his hair over his face.What was your desire to keep living?What was your purpose for breathing?Mine was simple.My name is Leo—one of Verek’s assassins. The deadliest. The strongest of the four. The one who death follows.And I had only one reason to stay alive.Him.Verek.The leader of all rogues. The man who sought to stand above all werewolves, above every pack, every Alpha.And it was my duty… to follow him. To be useful to him. Even if it cost me my life.Why?Because he was my savior.“Did you hear that the mother of that blonde Beta died?”George said with a smirk, lazily swirling the glass of wine in his hand, his eyes glinting with amusement, the kind of careless mischief he directed at everything around him.Seated on his lap, his mate, Isla, laughed softly, her hand resting against his chest.“Haha, I heard. And do you know what makes it even funnier?” she adde
Lilith povI was trembling.Not from the cold. Not from nerves. Not from fear.No—I was trembling because I was in bliss.Overwhelmed.Consumed.Intoxicated.My eyes were wide, dazed, nearly rolling back, my cheeks flushed a deep, heated pink. My lips stayed parted perfectly around him, around Lucien, his thickness pressing deep, pulsing faintly against the back of my throat as if he needed more, demanded it.I breathed through my nose, slow and unsteady, my mouth full and a soft, broken moan slipped out of me.The vibration traveled through him.“Fuck—”He grunted.He felt it.I knew he did.But I barely heard him. Barely registered anything beyond the way my body was unraveling because behind me…Silas.His hands were firm on my inner thighs, holding me open, keeping me exactly where he wanted me.And goddess, his mouth…That heat.That slow, relentless pressure against my dripping clit…A sharp gasp tore through me, muffled, my body jolting as pleasure surged all at once. My finge
Lilith pov“Please… take me, Lilith.”A groan slipped from Lucien’s lips—low, 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 couldn’t 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 wasn’t. I knew what that felt like—sharp, 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 Silas’ 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 intoxicating—addictive in a way that made my head spin. Before
Claude povAn hour later.We were going to die.“Either the Alphas die or Lilith dies. If you mark her, she will meet her end. If you don’t, the three of you will meet yours. That is the real curse of the Moon Goddess… the true punishment given to you.”Those were the words Lilith’s 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 wasn’t 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
Nnngh—Goddess, please… right there, Alpha Silas. Please, right there.” I wasn’t sure where I found the courage to speak like that, but the words tumbled out of me as my eyes fluttered shut. I could feel his gaze burning into me as his fingers moved faster, hitting that exact spot again and again
They say that when you die, you see the person who matters most to you on the other side, waiting with a smile, hand outstretched, ready to guide you into the afterlife. They say this happens so you won’t be scared or alone. So that death won’t feel so terrifying. So it was no surprise that I fo
Claude fucked my mouth without restraint. His grip on my hair was so tight I could feel the sting at my scalp as he held my head in place, thrusting in and out with a relentless pace that had me gagging, tears sliding down my cheeks before I could even stop them. It hurt. I could barely take his
The world paused the moment Lucien said those words. I didn’t think it was possible, but the air around me grew even more suffocating, like the auras of the three Alphas had intensified all at once. I wasn’t even sure how it had come to this point. When I prepared to enter this ritual, I’d expect
