Born of Ash and Night Chapter 67
Final Chapter — VaeliraThe world is already ending when I realize I’m going to die with it.The air tastes wrong—too sharp, too thin—like the sky itself has been flayed open. Magic screams around me, raw and uncontrolled, ripped loose from bodies that can’t hold it anymore. Stone shatters. Blood steams where it hits the ground. The battlefield is no longer a battlefield.It’s a grave trying to decide who it wants to keep.The hybrid stands in front of me, barely upright, chest heaving, eyes glowing with stolen power that no single body should ever contain. His skin is split in places, light bleeding out of him in jagged veins, but he’s smiling.Always smiling.“You’re still standing,” he says, voice shredded and triumphant. “I wondered if you would be.”My hands shake as I lift them, magic flickering unsteadily between my fingers. It answers slower now. Thinner. Like it knows what I’m about to do.“I’m tired,” I whisper. “Of you. Of this. Of being the proof that someone else’s mistak
Born of Ash and Night Chapter 66
POV: VaeliraIt starts wrong.Not with a charge or a scream or a banner lifted into the air—but with silence snapping like a bone under too much pressure.Then everything explodes.Magic tears through the valley in violent waves, ripping through what little remained of the wards like paper soaked in oil. The ground splits open, not wide enough to swallow us, but enough to remind everyone here that the earth itself is no longer neutral.Hybrids pour out of the dark.Not dozens.Hundreds.They move like a coordinated nightmare—some half-shifted, some wrong in ways my mind refuses to categorize. Magic clings to them like rot. Blood magic. Grave magic. Power stolen from the dead and worn like armor.Cain is gone from my side in a blur of silver and black, tearing into the first line with ruthless precision. Vampires follow him, eyes glowing, fangs bared, moving like a living blade.Wolves answer with thunder.Ashton’s roar splits the night, his wolf surging forward at the head of his pack

POV: VaeliraThe world is holding its breath.I feel it everywhere—in the way the air refuses to move, in the way magic curls tight against itself like it’s bracing for impact. Even the ground beneath my boots feels tense, as if the earth itself knows what’s coming and would rather not be part of it.War hasn’t started yet.That’s the worst part.Cain stands a few steps away from me, motionless, silver eyes tracking the horizon. He hasn’t spoken since the hybrids fled. He doesn’t need to. Everything he’s thinking is loud in the space between us—violence, strategy, grief sharpened into something lethal.I feel… different.Not stronger exactly. Not weaker either.Hollow in places that used to ache.Where my wolf once lived, there’s nothing. No echo. No ghost of claws or fur or instinct. Just quiet. A clean, surgical absence that makes my magic behave strangely—too precise, too calm, like it no longer has to argue with itself before obeying me.That should scare me more than it does.I l

POV: CainI have hunted monsters for over a century.I know the difference between fear and calculation. Between rage and restraint. Between prey and predator.The hybrid does not look afraid.But he looks… wrong.He keeps staring at Vaelira like the rules of the world just betrayed him, and that alone sets my fangs on edge.The other hybrids spread slightly, a loose semicircle—trained, wary. They feel it too. Whatever V became when she died and clawed her way back, it isn’t something they prepared for.Good.“Step away from her,” I say quietly.The main hybrid finally flicks his gaze to me. His smile is thin, ugly. “You don’t own her anymore, vampire.”I don’t correct him.I don’t need to.Vaelira lifts her hand.The air drops.Not cold—empty. Like the sound sucked out of a room. The ash under our feet stills. The warped magic bleeding from the ground recoils as if it’s suddenly aware of something larger than itself.One of the hybrids gasps.The main one’s eyes widen a fraction.Vae

POV: VaeliraThe Vampire Queen doesn’t soften the truth.Cain left before dawn.Not with an army. Not with counsel. Just fury, grief, and the kind of purpose that only comes from losing the one thing that anchored you to mercy.“He went east,” she tells me quietly, standing at the tall windows of the solar. “Toward the Blackened March. Toward where the dead magic pools.”Of course he did.Cain doesn’t run from monsters. He hunts them until one of them stops breathing.My chest tightens—not with pain, not with bond-pull, but with something colder and sharper. Awareness. Loss, yes—but also clarity.“He’s going to kill the hybrid,” I say.The Queen’s eyes flick to me. “He’s going to try.”I swing my legs over the edge of the bed.The room still smells faintly of death. Of me.My body moves smoothly—too smoothly. No ache. No tremor. No animal hesitation. Just intention followed by motion.The Queen watches closely. “You should not be standing yet.”“I shouldn’t be alive,” I reply. “We’re

POV VThe first thing I feel is cold.Not the gentle, numbing kind—this is sharp, invasive, crawling under my skin like it’s trying to claim me. Stone presses against my back. The air smells wrong. Old blood. Melted wax. Ash that hasn’t settled yet.I draw a breath.It works.That alone feels like a miracle.My fingers twitch.Someone gasps.“Well,” I rasp, my throat raw like I’ve screamed myself hollow, “this is awkward.”The room explodes into motion.A chair scrapes violently across stone. Fabric snaps. Power flares—ancient, panicked, barely leashed.The Vampire Queen stumbles back like she’s seen a ghost.Which—fair.Her eyes are wide, pupils blown, face drained of its usual lethal calm. One hand is half-raised, magic already coiling instinctively, the other pressed flat to her chest like she’s checking that her heart still exists.“You—” Her voice breaks. Just once. “You spoke.”I blink slowly, lashes heavy. Every movement feels deliberate, weighted, like my body is relearning ho
