Dying Was Easier Than Loving Him Chapter 124
Lucas’s POVPain radiated through my right shoulder like liquid fire, pinning me against the rough surface of the stone pillar. I clamped my teeth together to stifle a groan, feeling blood spill down my chest beneath my shirt. The collector stood beside me, his long dark coat sweeping around his boots while his hand remained resting lightly on the end of the iron spike.“Do not test me, doctor,” the collector said, leaning close enough for me to see the pale, cold sheen of his eyes. “The iron in this needle is forged from the foundation pins of the old wall. One twist will sever the nerves along your spine.”Amelia froze five paces away, her silver-tinted eyes wide with a mixture of terror and mounting fury. The sparks of light dancing across her fingertips flickered violently, reacting to the raw surge of her newly reclaimed wolf.“Let him go,” Amelia said, stepping forward with her iron dagger held steady in front of her. “You came for me and the debt. He has nothing to do with your
Dying Was Easier Than Loving Him Chapter 123
Amelia's POVThe howl tore straight through my ribs, a jagged blade of pure agony that dropped me to my knees on the cold, damp stone of the tunnel. My chest felt hollow, like a lung had been ripped out and left to bleed in the dark.“Amelia!” Lucas caught me under my arms before my forehead could hit the ground, his warm hands anchoring me against the sudden wave of vertigo. “Stay with me. Focus on my voice.”“She's hurting, Lucas,” I gasped, clutching at the front of his jacket while my breath came in short, ragged bursts. “Theo... he can't hold her. She's ripping him open from the inside and he's forcing her down anyway.”“Hold on to me,” Lucas whispered, pulling me up until I was balanced on my feet. His green eyes held a fierce, unwavering light in the gloom of the passage. “We are almost there. Keep your eyes on the exit.”Aldric led the way down the narrow stone stairs, his wooden staff tapping a steady, rhythmic beat against the rock floor. “The ritual chamber lies just beyond
Dying Was Easier Than Loving Him Chapter 122
Amelia's POVThe pressure crushing the air from my lungs felt like standing beneath a falling mountain. I planted my boots on the slick flagstones, refusing to step back even as the gray-coated collector closed the distance between us. My wolf was gone, but the stubborn Vance blood in my veins burned just as hot as it ever had.“Touch me,” I said, holding his gaze with every ounce of defiance I possessed, “and you'll find out just how sharp an anchor can be.”The collector paused, a faint, condescending smile curling the corner of his thin lips. “Fierce. Just like your mother when she signed the ledger thirty years ago. But bravery without power is simply a tragedy waiting to happen.”“Amelia, move!” Lucas roared from the stone floor.He scrambled to his feet, ignoring the blood dripping from his cracked lip, then hurled himself forward with raw, human desperation. Gabriella lunged to intercept him again, her hand reaching for a silver blade at her hip, but Damien recovered in a flash
Dying Was Easier Than Loving Him Chapter 121
Lucas’s POVThe cold wind coming off the northern peaks smelled of rain and ozone, but beneath the weather lay the metallic tang of burnt silver.I kept one hand on the stone battlements of the eastern gate, watching the distant treeline where the signal flare had vanished into the low clouds. Amelia stood next to me, her knuckles white where she gripped the icy parapet.Without her wolf, her skin was cool to the touch, lacking the quiet heat that every shifter carried beneath their pulse. It made my chest tighten with a sharp, feral rage I had to keep locked down under a surgeon’s discipline.“She walked right through,” Amelia said softly, her breath clouding in the night air. “Gabriella didn’t break the outer wards. Someone pulled the iron pins from the inside.”“We have three guards stationed at the watchtower,” Damien said, stepping up the stone stairs behind us with Serena at his heel. His Alpha aura surged around him like a heavy current, pressing against the atmosphere of the c

Amelia’s POVThe cold air of the hall felt like ice against my skin, but it was nothing compared to the shock freezing the blood in my veins. Theo stood in the center of the room, his hand clamping down around my wrist like an iron band. The quiet, timid young man we had brought in from the coast was gone, replaced by someone whose posture radiated absolute, predatory confidence.His eyes glowed with a brilliant, golden light that burned straight into my soul. Deep inside his chest, a low, murderous rumble vibrated through his ribs... a sound I knew better than my own name. It was my wolf. She was trapped behind his ribs, snarling against the cage of his stolen flesh, desperate to claw her way back home to me.“Let go of her, Theo,” Lucas said, his voice dropping into a dangerous, deadly register as he took a slow step forward. “You have three seconds to pull your hand back before I rip it off your arm.”Theo scoffed and tightened his grip, pulling me a fraction of an inch closer to h
Dying Was Easier Than Loving Him Chapter 119
Lucas's POVDawn broke over the pack grounds with a pale, cold light that offered no real warmth, casting long, stark shadows across the grass where every enforcer in Silverpine stood poised and silent.I waited at the center of the clearing beside Damien, the atmosphere thick with a low, collective hum of nervous tension as every wolf in the pack sniffed the wind for any hint of danger. A few steps behind me, Amelia stood with her hands clenched into fists at her sides, her human scent sharp with unmasked anxiety, stretching the invisible thread of our mate bond taut against my ribs.I had spent my entire life walking into dangerous rooms alone, refusing to let anyone share my burdens, yet the strangest part of this morning was how badly I wanted to pull her behind me and how clearly I knew she would refuse to stay there.After Aldric's warning in the archive, none of us had slept properly. The thief was inside Silverpine's walls, wearing a face we trusted. Every familiar voice, eve
