Lucian's Undoing CHAPTER 101
CHAPTER 101The cave was hidden deep within the mountains, a place even angels dared not tread. The wind howled outside like dying things, but inside, all was silent. The walls pulsed faintly with ancient glyphs, inked in forbidden script. Every inch of the stone was laced with magic from an age long buried—older than even Erethar’s dominion.Serros stood at the center of the sanctum, barefoot, shirtless, arms marred with fresh cuts. Blood streaked down his chest, dripping into the runes he’d carved into the stone floor.He was mumbling.A chant. A plea. A curse.“Chains of the Hollow, Eyes of the First Flame, Guardians of the Echoing Gate—bind what rises. Seal the hunger. Seal the hunger.”His voice was raw.His body trembled.“You’re late,” he whispered, half to himself, half to the shadows. “I thought I had more time.”Behind him, the candlelight flickered. A whisper of breath stirred the air—but when Serros turned, nothing was there.He inhaled sharply.He stepped forward and knel
Lucian's Undoing CHAPTER 100
CHAPTER 100“He’s late.”Samael’s voice cut through the silence like a blade.The Hall of Ascendancy shimmered in quiet anticipation, the council seated on their raised thrones. Golden light bathed the space, making every movement look slow, deliberate. Victory was rare here, and today, they had won without dirtying their own hands.“Let him come,” said Zevran lazily, one arm draped over the side of his throne. “He’ll be furious someone else finished the job. I’m honestly looking forward to it.”“He’s not going to like it,” Seraphiel added, dry amusement coloring his tone. “Good,” muttered Luthiel. “That blade belongs here, not in the hands of that deranged exile.”There was a shift in the atmosphere then. A breeze that came from nowhere. Cold. Ancient.The doors at the far end of the hall opened without sound.And Serros stepped in.Barefoot.Blood still on his robes.In his hand, he dragged the sacred blade—its tip scratching faint lines into the crystal floor. He looked hollow, li
Lucian's Undoing CHAPTER 99
CHAPTER 99The estate had settled into a rare silence.The training courtyards were empty for the evening, and the light from the moons bathed the halls in soft silver. Isara moved through the corridors.She had watched Elias train that morning—watched the way his movements had grown sharper, faster, as if something buried was clawing its way to the surface. She’d made careful notes, observed everything down to the tremble in his fingers when he thought no one was looking.And she had seen the black flicker in his eyes again.Now, with her shift over and no prying eyes around, she finally allowed herself to ascend.Her door shut softly behind her. She locked it, lit the seven ceremonial candles, and knelt in the center of the sigil drawn across her floor in powdered silverroot. Her voice was steady as she chanted the invocation.Light cracked through the air—sharp and silent.In a blink, she stood within the Hall of Ascendancy.Above her, light poured down from unseen heights. Pillars
Lucian's Undoing CHAPTER 98
CHAPTER 98The instant Elias stepped into the chamber, the book snapped shut.Hard.The force sent a gust of air through the room, snuffing out two of the candles near the altar and throwing Kairis’s hair across her face.Elias stopped mid-step, his eyes narrowing. “What was that?”Lucian exhaled slowly, gaze fixed on the ancient tome. “It... didn’t do that earlier.”Kairis stepped forward, one pale finger reaching for the cover again. “It senses him.”Before anyone could speak, the book shuddered.Then flipped itself open again—pages flying violently, as if hands far stronger than theirs had seized it. Shadows bled from the text, curling like smoke, spilling off the table and crawling along the ground.Elias instinctively took a step back.“Kairis,” Lucian barked. “What the hell is that?”She didn’t answer right away. Her pupils were dilated, black eating at the whites of her eyes as she stared into the center of the book.“It’s reacting to Valarieth,” she said softly.Elias’s breath

CHAPTER 97"You're frowning again," Kairis said flatly. She didn't look up from the tome she was unbinding, her pale fingers sliding over the cracked leather cover like she was petting something dead.Lucian barely glanced up. "Because everything here is useless. Pages ripped. Names redacted. It's like they want us blind.""They do." Kairis finally looked at him, her expression as bored as ever. "Knowledge is dangerous. Especially knowledge about beings older than angels."Lucian let out a breath and shoved a useless scroll aside. "You don’t sound surprised.""I’m not." Kairis cracked open the book with a low creak. "I grew up in the archives, remember? Most of the really old texts are sealed for a reason. Names that burn your tongue when you speak them. Truths that don't like being remembered."Lucian walked to her side, scanning the page. It was filled with ancient script—Faerian, but distorted. Bent like it had been carved in pain."What is this?""The Song of the Beforeborn," she
Lucian's Undoing CHAPTER 96
CHAPTER 96The mirror stuttered.Isadora narrowed her eyes at the pulse of dark smoke swirling across the glass. Her fingertips grazed the edge of the spell, blood still fresh on her skin from the sacrifice it demanded. She tilted her head slightly, watching the reflection warp—until, finally, it cleared.The battlefield. The awakening. Elias.Golden light spilled from his chest, spiraling into divine geometry."Valarieth," she whispered, her voice full of venom and wonder.Her nephew.Her blood.A god hidden beneath all that weakness.She watched as the others surrounded him—Lucian, the faeblooded boy, the traitorous celestial bitch. And Elias stood among them, barely grasping what he was. Barely knowing the storm he’d just called down.Isadora’s nails dug into her palm.The mirror rippled again—another figure storming from the edge of the vision.Tristan.His face twisted with rage. His hand blackened with magic that wasn’t his. The dark power inside him pulsed like a second heartbe
