Once Aria left Lena and Nyah, she headed straight back to the house, her mind heavy with thoughts she couldn’t shake. The library was quiet, the fire in the hearth burning low, shelves looming over her like watchful guardians. She wasn’t there for leisure this time, no fairytales or dusty romances. She was searching.

Ever since Lucien’s cruel words, she couldn’t stop thinking about them. Descendant of the original witches. It sounded insane, like one of those stories whispered to scare children. But it gnawed at her. She needed proof that he was wrong. That he’d been lying.

Aria pulled every book she could find on witches down from the shelves, stacking them around her chair until she was half barricaded in by old leather tomes. She flipped through page after page, scanning faded ink and brittle parchment.

Most of it she already knew, the stories she had read before. That the six original witches had created the other supernatural races, wolves, vampires, fae, demons. That those creat

    Kieran laid her down gently, as though she might break if he released her too quickly. But he didn’t let go, his body followed hers, his weight pressing her into the mattress, his lips capturing hers in a kiss that was slow, deep, and unrelenting.Aria’s chest rose and fell in a frantic rhythm, every nerve alive, every inch of her body aching for him. She writhed beneath him, tugging at his shirt, her voice breaking as she whispered against his mouth, “Kieran, please, I need you.”A low growl rumbled from his throat as his hand slid between her thighs, pushing her dress up. His fingers found her slick and waiting, and he groaned against her lips. “Fuck, Velari… you’re perfect for me.”Her thighs trembled as his fingers teased her, stroking slow circles that made her b

    The light vanished as suddenly as it had come. Aria blinked through the afterimage burning her vision, chest heaving as she tried to comprehend what had just happened.Kieran’s brother was no longer standing. His body had been hurled across the dining hall, smashing into the wall behind Kieran’s chair with such force that stone and wood cracked and splintered. He lay crumpled in the debris, coughing, blood on his lips.Everyone else remained seated in their places, rumpled, windswept, but unharmed.The invisible bindings that had trapped them all dissolved at once. Alaric surged to his feet, instantly checking Isolde, brushing his hands over her arms, her shoulders, making sure she was whole. She nodded, shaken but unharmed, and he turned next to Lyra, cupping her cheek until she assured him she was fine

    The long dining table gleamed under golden light, crystal glasses catching flickers of flame from the candelabras. The scent of roasted meat and herbs lingered in the air, blending with the faint polish of wood and silver. Kieran took his seat at the head of the table, shoulders squared, every inch the Alpha. Aria slid into the chair at his right, where she belonged, though she couldn’t stop the small flutter of nerves in her chest. This was his family, her family now too, if she allowed it. And she wanted to be close to him, tethered, safe.Conversation was light at first. Lyra teased her father about his stern frown, Alaric rumbled back with good humor, and even Kieran’s mother laughed, warmth in her voice. Soup was poured into bowls, the soft clink of silver spoons echoing across the space. For a few brief moments, Aria allowed herself to imagine this was normal. Dinner with a family who had

    When he finally pulled back from the kiss, he checked his watch, sighing. “Family dinner in an hour.”Aria laughed softly at his tone. “You sound thrilled.”He rolled dramatically onto his back, dragging her with him. “We could stay right here. Skip dinner. Mira will forgive us.”“No way,” she scolded gently. “Mira’s worked hard. And your mum seemed excited. We’re going.”He groaned, wrapping both arms around her and pinning her down like a human paperweight. “Not fair. You smell too good. You feel too good. I’m not letting you go.”She wriggled, laughing, swatting his chest. “Are you not happy to see your family?”

    They stayed tangled in bed long after the sun had dipped low, the air warm and lazy between them. Kieran stroked his fingers down Aria’s arm, trailing goosebumps in his wake as she nestled her cheek against his chest. His steady heartbeat grounded her, the rise and fall of his breathing a rhythm she was coming to crave.“How was your day with my mum and Lyra?” he asked softly, voice deepened by relaxation, though his eyes glowed faintly when he looked at her.Aria smiled, pressing a kiss just above his sternum. “It was… really nice. You have a lovely family, Kieran. And Lyra—” she laughed lightly, “I already know I’ll love her. She’s impossible not to.”Something in his gaze softened, sparking with a rare boyish gleam. “She’s crazy half the time, but I wouldn’t change he

    Aria pressed a hand against Kieran’s chest, her palm flat over the hard ridges of muscle, forcing a sliver of space between them. He pulled back reluctantly, lips hovering just above hers, his breath ragged. His arms stayed firm around her waist as if letting her go was unthinkable.Confusion shadowed his face, and for the first time, he looked almost vulnerable. A flicker of hurt crossed his golden eyes, quickly masked beneath that Alpha steel. “What is it, Velari?” he asked, voice low, careful.Her resolve wavered as heat still coiled in her stomach from his kiss, from the rough possessiveness of his touch. But she knew she had to say something, before they crossed a line she couldn’t step back from. She forced her gaze to meet his, steady and unflinching.“Before we… before this goes any further, there’s something I wanted to tell you,” she whispered, her chest rising and falling fast. She drew in a breath, ready to bare herself in a way more terrifying than the lace stretched over
