Kayhan’s POV

I weaved through the elite guests, my steps incredibly heavy with a sudden, suffocating sense of dread.

Doing the devil’s work was completely exhausting.

I spotted Uncle Eren standing near the edge of the floor, deeply engaged in a conversation with a well-dressed gentleman, and I immediately made my move toward him.

Shaking Eren’s hand firmly, I forced my deep, magnetic voice to sound perfectly calm.

“Hello, Eren. It is nice to see you again tonight,” I said, keeping my tone serio

  • Curse Of Tethys, Hellblades Series Part 3 of 3   122 - The Engagement Ball

    Manolya’s POVWith the family reunited, I stood in the very same grand ballroom where Kayhan had originally proposed to me, the familiar, towering crystal chandeliers casting a warm, fractured light over the polished marble floor.Kayhan’s hand rested securely around my waist, holding me firm against his side as if he still couldn’t quite believe we had both made it out of that necropolis alive.Everyone had come to celebrate our formal engagement.It was a beautiful, intimate gathering, just our closest friends and family.I wore a breathtaking burgundy red dress, beautifully embellished with intricate lace, paired with sleek gloves.A sterling silver tiara, decorated with diamonds, rubies, and pearls, rested perfectly on my head, while my hair was curled into a sweet, soft updo that framed my features.“Look at them all,” Kayhan whispered into my ear, his breath warm against my neck as the orchestra began to play a soft, sweeping tune. “You are mine now. I’ll take care of you and sp

  • Curse Of Tethys, Hellblades Series Part 3 of 3   121 - A Flutter In The Dark

    Ayla’s POVI sat unmoving beside Emre’s bedside, my fingers tightly interlaced in my lap, keeping my tireless watch just as I had for days.The constant, rhythmic beep of the hospital monitors in Tulip Bay had become a dull hum in my ears, a cruel background track to the absolute terror gripping my chest.Then, right before my eyes, the impossible happened.The deep, lacerations marring his skin began to pull together.The angry, violent purple discoloration around his chest faded, softening into pale, smooth skin right beneath the white hospital linen.My breath caught in my throat.I stood up so fast my chair scraped loudly against the linoleum.Startled and trembling, I dashed out to call for the healers from the Wellness Alliance.They rushed into the room, their hands glowing with soft residual magic as they hurriedly checked his vitals, murmuring to one another in utter disbelief.It was an undeniable miracle.He was slowly healing, his body purging the final remnants of the dar

  • Curse Of Tethys, Hellblades Series Part 3 of 3   120 - A Choice Well Made

    Manolya’s POVThe skeletal monstrosity had really refused to die with its master.Instead, the green, unholy fire burning within its empty rib cage flared with a sudden, chaotic intensity.Without Tethys to command it, the beast was no longer a weapon of targeted malice; it was an engine of pure destruction, operating on ancient, feral instincts.I scrambled to my feet, my boots slipping slightly on the dust and bone fragments that littered the cavern floor.The hellblade felt warm in my hand, heavy and radiating a dark, hungry energy, yet it felt entirely inadequate against a creature whose sheer mass could crush me without a second thought.“Manolya, duck!” Pelin screamed, her voice cutting through the ringing in my ears.I didn’t think. I lunged to the left as the dragon’s massive, bony tail whipped through the air where I had been standing a fraction of a second before.The impact against the cavern wall shattered solid rock, sending a shower of sharp stones raining down on us. On

  • Curse Of Tethys, Hellblades Series Part 3 of 3   119 - Bellowing Bronze

    Manolya’s POVHis body convulsed, disintegrating before my eyes, and the dragon let out a roar that shook the very foundations of the necropolis.I felt the essence of Tethys being sucked back into my hellblade, along with the remnants of some of his twisted minions.“Get your hands off me!” Kayhan roared, the crimson lines of the SATOR curse suddenly snapping and vanishing from his skin as Tethys’s essence fractured.The blinding agony that had kept him pinned evaporated, replaced by a boiling, feral fury.He surged to his feet, his palms igniting with a violent eruption of his own emerald-green shadow magic.He lashed his hands forward, molding the green fire into a wicked, crackling whip that twirled and coiled viciously around the two ifrit’s.“No! Secure the boy!” Maalek shrieked as the magical whip wired itself tighter around his spiral horns. “Zaahir, pull him down!”“I can’t! It burns! That mad man is burning my roots!” Zaahir screamed in absolute agony. The emerald flames sna

  • Curse Of Tethys, Hellblades Series Part 3 of 3   118 - Heart Of Evil

    Manolya’s POVI ran toward Pelin, my heart pounding in my chest as I approached the trembling back of my best friend.She had waited for me, even though I had been blind to her struggles.Wrapping my arms around her, I squeezed her tightly, almost as if I could absorb all the pain she had endured.“I’m sorry for not believing in you,” I whispered, my voice thick with emotion. “I understand now that it was just foul tricks from that imbecile over there!”I cast a disgusted glance in Tethys’s direction, disgust bubbling inside me. He was nothing, utterly useless, and I would make sure of it. “I’m sorry for not believing you sooner.”Pelin stiffened at first, her body cold against mine, but then she relaxed, and I felt her tears soaking into my shoulder.I sniffled softly, my voice trembling as I spoke, “I’m still mad at you for not telling me how it was from the beginning, though!” I couldn’t help but lash out.Despite her and mine anger, I felt a warmth in her embrace, an understanding

  • Curse Of Tethys, Hellblades Series Part 3 of 3   117 - Blood And Bones

    Manolya’s POVI could feel my pulse pounding in my ears, the weight of Tethys’ mocking presence pressing against me like a thick fog.My body was still shaking from the adrenaline, but I refused to let him see how badly he got to me.His gleaming smile, his slim, vulgar figure, he was a mockery of everything I had ever known, a creature built from darkness and perversion.His antics made my stomach churn, and I could barely hold my ground.But I would not allow him to win, not when so much was at stake.Not when Kayhan, Aylin, my father, and the very lives of all of those I cared about hung in the balance.“See, I knew you would get it!” Tethys purred, his lips curling as if savoring some unseen victory.The sound of his voice grated on my nerves.“A little blood, a little magic, and voila, your precious Aylin is mine now. Isn’t it beautiful?”I wanted to scream, to rush at him and rip that smug expression off his face.But I held back, biting my tongue as my gaze fell upon Aylin, flo
