The Devourer: A Vampire's Curse Chapter 73
Raina’s POV“Liam—”My voice broke before I even finished his name. He wouldn’t look at me. His piercing silver eyes were locked on the floor, his jaw clenched so hard I thought he might shatter his own teeth.“Don’t,” he bit out. The single word cut sharper than any blade.I stepped forward anyway, my hand half-reaching for him. “Please, just listen. I was going to tell you. I just—”“You were going to tell me?” His voice rose, raw, accusing. His head snapped up, eyes burning. “When? After I cried my eyes out for you? After I swore to fight every last one of them to protect you?” His arm flung wide at the wolves, the hybrids, Ian watching with smug delight. “Or maybe after you drain everyone of us to keep yourself alive?”“That wasn’t—” My throat ached. “I wasn’t ready. I thought now wasn't the right time. I’m not the Mel you knew. I’m me now. I’m Raina. I didn’t want you to see me as her—”“You are her,” he shouted, stepping closer, his fury radiating. “You’re Mel, and you let me be
The Devourer: A Vampire's Curse Chapter 72
Liam’s POVThe air darkened when Ian lifted his hand. Shadows peeled from the walls like living things, twisting into shapes that crawled across the cracked platform. The wolves braced, growls echoing, but the darkness only pooled at Ian’s feet, waiting for his command.He didn’t strike. Not yet. He only smiled, as though the entire room belonged to him already.Then he stepped forward, his shoes echoing against the concrete, every move deliberate. The hybrids flanked him, silent, waiting. His smile was calm, too calm, and it froze the wolves around me in wary stillness.“You make me the villain,” he began, voice smooth, carrying easily through the subway. “You whisper about me in your camps, you tell stories of the monster who bled this city dry. But the truth? The truth is far less poetic. I am not your enemy. I am your salvation.”The wolves growled at that, low and unified, but Ian only lifted his hand, silencing them with the arrogance of someone who believed himself untouchable.
The Devourer: A Vampire's Curse Chapter 71
Raina’s POVThe waiting seemed like the hardest part.Wolves murmured to each other, weapons being checked, and strapped tighter their bodies. Zade was sharpening a blade for the third time. Judy leaned against the wall, flipping her dagger like she was bored.The Alpha stood near the broken fountain, arms crossed, eyes on the horizon where the sun was sinking. Dorian was close to him, speaking low until finally the Alpha raised his voice so the rest of us could hear.“Ian is not in his mansion. My scouts checked every corner. Empty. No movement for days.”I frowned. “So he’s hiding somewhere else in the city?”“Or waiting,” the Alpha said flatly. “He wants us to search. He wants us to walk into him on his terms.”Liam folded his arms, his jaw tight. “Then we don’t search blind. He’ll go where there’s blood. Where there are survivors to feed on.”“Not many survivors left,” one of the wolves muttered.“Enough for bait,” Judy said. “He knows what he’s doing.”The Alpha’s jaw tightened.
The Devourer: A Vampire's Curse Chapter 70
Liam’s POVDawn came, but it brought no peace.We had taken shelter in what was left of an old barn, its roof half-caved, its walls leaning like they would fall with a strong wind. The wolves had chosen it for cover, but no one closed their eyes. The smell of blood still clung to us, iron and smoke lodged in our throats, and every creak of the boards overhead kept nerves taut.No one spoke much at first. Zade paced in the corner, muttering curses under his breath. Judy leaned against the wall, dagger still in her hand, spinning it idly as if daring anyone to interrupt her. Raina sat with Ysra, holding her steady, whispering things I didn't bother hearing.I stayed near the fire pit in the center, the embers throwing out weak light. My mind replayed the night over and over: Silas’s roar, Tiana’s smirk, the hybrids tearing through the camp. Too many wolves had not made it out. Those who had were slumped in corners now, eyes hollow, waiting for orders that had not yet come.Finally, Zade

Raina’s POVTiana’s smile stayed fixed, cruel and smug as she held Ysra suspended like a puppet. My stomach twisted, disbelief clawing through me.“How?” I forced out, my voice cracking. “You were human. You had no power. How are you doing this?”Her eyes found mine, alight with wicked pride. “It’s the perks of being a vampire clan leader’s favorite. Especially when he happens to have a clever little scientist who’s been saving us a great deal of trouble. Experimentation is such tedious work… but when it pays off?” She lifted Ysra higher, her limbs jerking in the invisible grip. “Well, I’m living proof of that success.”My pulse hammered. “Dr. Velma,” Liam growled beside me, his voice low, dangerous. “Where is she?”Tiana’s lips curved like a blade. “Don’t worry, she’s in good hands. And so will Ysra be. Soon enough.”She yanked Ysra closer as if claiming her. Ysra let out a strangled cry, her nails clawing at the air. Something snapped inside me. I didn’t think. I just moved.I launc
The Devourer: A Vampire's Curse Chapter 68
Liam’s POVThe scream split the night.It was sharp, high-pitched, full of terror—and then it cut off too quickly.I was on my feet before I realized I had moved, Raina just a step behind me. Wolves burst from their tents, weapons half-drawn, fangs glistening as they went into full alert modeThe fire threw wild shadows over their faces as we sprinted toward the sound.The body lay sprawled near the edge of camp. A wolf, his throat ripped clean, his eyes still wide with the last thing he’d seen. Blood soaked into the dirt, too much too fast for anyone to save him.Another scream answered from the opposite side of camp.“Positions!” the camp leader roared, his voice cutting through the chaos. He was still in human form—every wolf was, with the full moon only a night away—but the weight of his presence carried like a blade through the air, steadying the panic. Broad-shouldered, jaw set, he moved with the kind of authority that left no room for hesitation. The pack obeyed instantly.“Eron
