The Devourer: A Vampire's Curse Chapter 89
Raina’s POVI knew that coming for me would be the first thing he did when he opened his eyes. So predictable.“Let me go,” I managed, forcing the words through his grip.He returned his gaze to me, eyes burning with rage. His veins were no longer blackened with poison, his body back to its normal color.“You should be dead,” he hissed. “After everything you’ve done.”I didn't flinch. I could break his hold in an instant. Could rip his arm clean from its socket before he even blinked. But Liam stood behind him—eyes wide, torn between loyalty and horror.If I fought back, I’d lose them both.“Ian,” Liam said, his tone low but cutting enough to slice through the air. “Let her go.”Ian didn’t even look at him this time. His fingers dug deeper into my skin. “She’s the reason I nearly turned to ash. Tell me, why should I spare her?”“You tried to kill me you dickhead,” I snapped, my patience thinning.“Exactly why I should finish what I started.”I smiled faintly, the kind that didn’t reac

Liam’s POV“How’s Ian?” Ysra’s smile faltered. “Not good. Come in.”Raina stepped in first, then paused at the threshold, like she didn't want to cross. Her eyes swept the room, cold and searching, like she was cataloging threats rather than returning someplace familiar.I followed her.The living area smelled faintly of antiseptic and copper. Judy sat at the table, bandaged hand resting over a cup of untouched tea. Zade hovered near the hallway, trying to look tough but the relief in his eyes when he spotted Raina was impossible to miss.“You’re back,” he breathed.Raina only dipped her head once. No smile. No warmth. Just an acknowledgment so small it almost wasn’t there.That alone felt like a knife in my ribs.Ysra led us down the hall. The closer we got, the more the air shifted. When we entered the bedroom, I froze.Ian lay sprawled across the mattress, his skin burned with angry streaks of black that crawled up his throat and jaw. Sweat beaded along his temples, his hands fist
The Devourer: A Vampire's Curse Chapter 87
Liam’s POVTime doesn’t pass the same when you’re waiting for someone who may never walk back through the door.I’d been hovering around Slade’s territory for more than twenty-four hours, alone with nothing but the distant thrum of bass from his club and the static ache of the bond in my chest—that faint pull reminding me Raina was alive but drifting further from the version of herself that remembered me.Slade said to wait. I wasn’t built for waiting.By the time the clock struck midnight again, I’d had enough.His men at the entrance recognized me instantly. Not because they knew my face, but because they could feel the rage rolling off me. They tensed like they were ready to throw themselves at me for Slade’s approval, but I didn’t give them a chance to decide.The doors burst inward when I kicked them open, and the music swallowed me whole—pounding, frantic, feeding the violence simmering under my skin.Slade saw me coming before anyone else did. He was lounging against the railin
The Devourer: A Vampire's Curse Chapter 86
Raina’s POVI lied.I wasn’t looking for who had turned Slade because he had answers. I was looking for an easy way to end it all.And to do that, I had to find the makers. The ones who started it all. The roots of our corruption. The monsters that even monsters whispered about. Michael Valeric was one of them.The name itself carried a kind of silence that pressed against the bones. It tasted old. Heavy. The kind of name that wasn’t meant to be spoken out loud after dark.I tracked him to the outskirts of the city—where the streetlights thinned, and the air thickened with something that wasn’t quite night. The land was older here. The soil black and damp, the trees bent from years of holding secrets they couldn’t drop. I followed the scent of decay and iron until I reached what looked like an abandoned chapel swallowed by the forest. The roof had long caved in, and the stone walls were cracked like veins under pale skin.The wind moaned through the hollow frame, carrying whispers th
The Devourer: A Vampire's Curse Chapter 85
Raina’s POV Oh, I did find something worse than myself waiting in the dark. It wasn’t a monster. It wasn’t even human. It was purpose. Cold, clean, cruel. The shipment Slade had sent me after wasn’t late—it was stolen. By a group of rogue vampires who thought feeding off the trade lines would make them untouchable. They were wrong. Their hideout was an old freight yard just beyond the river, thick with rust and stench. The night crawled with the kind of silence that only came before blood. I moved through it like smoke, tracing the heartbeat of the first guard before he even saw me. One twist, one bite, and he was gone. The others followed fast. Quick kills. No mess. I was done before the echo of the first body hit the ground. When I found the missing shipment, half the blood bags were drained dry. The rogues hadn’t been hungry—they’d been desperate. I stared down at the torn plastic, the clotted red on the floor, and felt nothing. Maybe that was the worst part. By the ti
The Devourer: A Vampire's Curse Chapter 84
Liam’s POVThe blood burned down my throat, thick and coppery, too sweet for what I needed. The man’s pulse fluttered weakly under my hand, his breath hitching as I let go. He slumped against the wall, alive—barely.I wiped my mouth with the back of my hand and took a step back. I couldn’t even remember the last time I’d killed to feed. Maybe I was losing my edge. Maybe I didn’t care anymore.The alley was quiet except for the hum of a far-off generator and the faint rustle of paper skittering across the pavement. I could almost pretend it was peace. Almost.Then I felt it—eyes on me.“Come out,” I said, my voice low. “If you’re going to stare, at least have the decency to do it to my face.”The shadows shifted near the end of the alley, and a figure stepped forward. A vampire. Young, by the look of him—eyes too bright, movements too clean, the sort of sharpness that hadn’t yet dulled with time.He inclined his head in a half-bow. “He’s still fighting,” he said. “But he’s fading fast.
