Alina’s POV

She stared at Lucian’s face, lips parted but no words came.

And all I could do was watch, heart hammering, breath shallow, praying to the Moon Goddess that she’d finish her sentence before the silence became permanent.

But I had no patience left in me when it seemed like she wouldn't say anything sooner. Not when Lucian lay unconscious with blood crusting around his fingers and Sabrina kept dancing around answers like it wouldn’t kill me to wait.

I grabbed her arm, gripping tighter than I intended. “Please tell me what’s happening, Sabrina,” I pleaded, my voice cracking under the weight of my desperation.

Her eyes, those knowing eyes that seemed to have seen too much, left Lucian’s face. She didn’t speak. Her chest rose and fell as if something was being wrenched from within her. Slowly, her gaze drifted upward, following something invisible in the air until they settled on the full moon through the slightly opened window I had forgotten to close earlier.

    Alina’s POV How can my blood save him?The question clanged inside my chest like a gong struck too hard. I stared at Lucian, pale and still as marble, and I could barely breathe past the knot of panic in my throat."Look... it might be risky," Sabrina said, her voice wobbling with caution, "but it’s a good chance to bring him back before the clutches of death grab him completely."Clutches of death. The words sank sharp into my stomach like thorns curling into soft flesh.I looked down at Lucian. His face, always so full of life – whether he was smirking in arrogance or sneering with intent – now looked like it belonged to someone else. Someone quiet. Gone. My pulse thundered in my ears, like my body was trying to shout louder than fear."How will it work?" I whispered. The words weren’t even for her. They were to the void between reason and confusion."Your tattoo," she said, her eyes flicking to the crescent mark on my collarbone. "It means you have a direct connection to the godd

    Alina's POV The chilling air crept into the room like ghostly fingers, seeping through the open windows I had definitely forgotten to close before sleep claimed me. The bed had been too soft, too warm, a cocoon that had welcomed me into its deceptive embrace. But no warmth could keep the nightmare at bay. It returned like a vengeful storm, sinking claws into my belly and twisting until I couldn't breathe.I saw it again.The car. The way it swerved. The screech of tires. The blinding headlights that came out of nowhere.My father's hand had jerked on the wheel, my mother's gasp slicing the air.Then…Metal screamed. Glass shattered. The world spun.We rolled. Once. Twice. Then again. My vision blurred until everything became noise and pain."Alina!" my mother's voice rang out through the haze. "Listen to me! Crawl. Crawl out, sweetheart! Go!"I had cried, terrified, my small fingers trembling as I tried to move."Go, baby. Now! Mama's right here. Just crawl!"I didn't understand how

    Lydia's POV He kissed me like a starving man again, wild, claiming, his tongue sweeping mine until my thoughts scattered into a dizzy whirl. My fingers curled against his shoulders, desperate to anchor myself, but there was no solid ground left between us. Only heat.I gasped against his lips as I felt the firm pressure beneath me, Jasper’s arousal was undeniable now, his rising cock pressing against me as I straddled him. His hands gripped my hips, guiding me back and forth so that my pussy grazed his hardened length through his briefs. I could feel him growing harder beneath me.His breath hitched, his hold tightened. He was slipping. Again.Jasper had always wanted control. Dominance. And now, I could feel it rising in him again – that trigger he could barely contain whenever we got too close, too raw.Before I could stop it, before I could even tear myself away, he growled low in his throat, a primal sound vibrating against my skin. Then, effortlessly, with that dominant werewo

    Lydia’s POV I blinked. Just like that?No details. No warnings. No reason for the unease that had been sitting in my chest like a rock since the night of the ball. Just “you shouldn’t worry.” Like it was that simple.My pulse tightened and his response made me snap.I lifted my head slightly, turning my eyes to him. “I shouldn’t worry? Seriously?”Sitting up fully, I pushed his hand off my thigh. “Rowan had his eyes all over her that night. I had to pull him back to me every single time. Then he asked you to look into her—you—and now you’re saying I shouldn’t worry? Heck no.”Jasper exhaled, like I had just drained all the patience from him. “If you’re scared Rowan might be interested in her, then forget about him,” he said bluntly. “That means the love he had for you was never real.”I looked at him, stunned into silence for a heartbeat. Then he leaned in, his eyes serious and oddly soft.“But my love…” he whispered, “my love is for eternity. And it’s real. We’re fated mates.”I gro

    Lydia’s POV I didn’t care anymore who might walk in. Didn’t care if the walls echoed with my voice or if someone out there could hear what we were doing. This right here was the wild, unrestrained pleasure I had always craved. And for once, I wasn't going to apologize for it or feel a tiny regret.My fingers clawed the sheets, my mouth opened in another scream as Jasper held me firmly, driving into me with an urgency that bordered on animalistic. My body trembled beneath his touch, and my mind spiraled with every thrust.“Faster,” I gasped, choking on the heat rising in my chest. “Goddess, don’t stop. Go faster, Jasper. Fuck!”He groaned behind me, a deep rumble that vibrated through his chest and into mine, his pace growing rougher, more desperate. His hips snapped harder, and I could feel every heated inch of him stroking into me, filling me so completely I forgot my name.“Damn it, Lydia,” he hissed, his hand reaching around to tease the swollen, throbbing ache between my legs.
