Killian and I sat on cracked stones, catching our breaths atop the blood-soaked rooftop. The moon, which had once been shrouded by storm clouds during the chaos, watched over us as it shone its light on the silent manor. We had a victory, a bitter one. My hands still trembled from the fight, and waves rocked my body, sparking up emotions that I couldn’t define.

I glanced at Garam’s corpse, lying in a dark pool that reflected the silver moon hanging above. His face, which was once filled with cruelty, was empty now with no life, evil, or power on it.

The bodies of Garam’s creatures, which littered the field below, began to slowly dissolve into dark mist that the breeze carried away, leaving only the blood-filled field and the bodies of the fallen warriors of the pack and the rogues that supported Garam.

I wiped my sword clean on the edge of my torn cloak and slid it into its sheath before standing up to face the people who stood below.

    SALVADORThe moment I turned off the car’s ignition, the brat flew out of the car and rushed towards the garage’s exit.I scoffed and grabbed the wasted shirt on the backseat, then tied a scarf around my neck before heading out of the garage. I stepped out of the garage and dumped the gory shirt into a trash can. The people standing close by widened their eyes in horror and kept their eyes on me while whispering amongst themselves, but I didn't care.Despite how fast she walked, I still overtook her with just a few paces.She stopped walking and spun around, staring at me with surprise lurking around her eyes.“How did you get here so soon?” she asked. I looked at her and shrugged, that smirk that pisses her off stuck on my face.“Acting like you don’t know what I am,” I scoffed. She cursed under her breath and narrowed her eyes before heading up the stairs.I chuckled and trailed after her to Lucian and Killian Nox’s study. I found her standing like a confused child when I reached th

    ADRIANA Salvador stepped out, slammed the door shut, and trudged towards the large man with the axe swinging in his left hand.Salvador muttered something to him and the man smirked evilly.“I was told by an insider that you lost the throne to one of your father’s illegitimate sons. It must be a shame, isn’t it?” the man said, and my jaw dropped.“You have no one to protect you now, your father has rejected you for choosing the wolves over your people,” the man added.Salvador slowly glanced back, his cold gaze that fell on me sent chills rushing through my veins.He turned and looked at the man, his hand gripping the axe.“Let’s end it then,” he muttered and took a step back. The sinister smirk on the man’s face fell, and he scoffed loudly, then turned towards the men behind him and nodded his head.My heart leaped as the men surrounding him rushed towards him with raised axes and loud grunts. Salvador grabbed the first man and flipped him around, sending his ass to one of the cars.

    KILLIAN I paused to catch my breath as I stared at the slightly tilted house, leaning against the wind in the middle of the woods. I craned my neck back and looked at Lucian who wouldn’t stop touching the plaster over the slash on his neck.“What?” he muttered, nodding at me. I shook my head and spun around, focusing on the house ahead.When we got to the door of the house, I took a step back and moved away from the door then turned to face Lucian. He increased his pace and didn’t hesitate to push the door open.We looked at each other then slipped into the house. Unlike the appearance of the house from the outside, it looked clean and luxurious from within.“This doesn’t look like a cleansing ground,” I muttered and he shrugged, remaining quiet.I looked around and my eyes got stuck on a large round bed in the middle of the room. The bed was filled with red, thorn-free roses, and a bowl of milk sat at the foot of the bed, along with an unsheathed blade.“Lay her down,” a voice pierc

    ADRIANA Miles recovered faster than I did, and I quickly jerked up, then sprang up, his widened eyes gazing over my shoulders. I pulled down my dress and slowly turned around, my gaze stuck on the floor. It felt so embarrassing to get caught in such a manner, but what was more humiliating was the horror of the person discovering my identity. I would be doomed.“What are you doing here?” Miles’s growl forced me to lift my gaze towards the intruder.My heart constricted in rage, and my fist clenched in anger.“What the hell are you doing here, Salvador?” I snapped.His head tilted to the side as he scoffed loudly in disdain.He straightened up and trudged leisurely into the room, then walked towards us in calculated steps.“As your guardian, I am here to pick you up,” he muttered and glanced at Miles, returning his glare.I scoffed in annoyance and folded my arms below my breasts.“I am not going anywhere with you, Salvador!” I groused, straining his name in a mocking tone.He chuckled

    ADRIANAI bit into the sausage and moaned out in delight, throwing my head back.“Guess you haven’t tasted such good snacks in your life,” Miles said, and I hit his chest.“Stop! Don’t you dare mock me with that,” I snapped, and he scoffed, smiling lightly.I raised an eyebrow in question when he kept his eyes on me.“What?” I snapped, and he chuckled, shaking his head.“You kinda look more beautiful up close.” “What?”“I always thought Arlene was more beautiful,” he said, and my heart dropped as anger flooded into my veins.“Do you always have to mention her?” I snapped, and his smile dropped.“I didn’t mean it that way,” he quickly defended.“Whatever!” I grumbled and shook his hand off, then got up and began walking into his house.He silently trailed after, saying nothing to defend himself.I stopped walking when I walked past an overturned photo frame on the shelf in the living room.I walked towards the shelf and picked up the photo, but Miles rushed forward and tried to grab i

    LUCIAN I cranked my head to the side and cursed loudly when my eyes caught that thick mist just a few feet away from me. If I were given a minute more, I would have been down there, letting the mist taste my energy.“Give me your hand!” Killian’s growl got my head turning towards him. My eyes darted to his outstretched hand and then his face.“Release me,” I muttered, and his lips turned up in disbelief.“You can fucking release yourself!” he snapped, and I scoffed.“You put me in this condition, so release me,” I snapped.He cursed me and flicked his hand swiftly. I felt a force being lifted off my body, and the gravity took its place again, but I was fast enough to grab Kiilian’s hand before my body began to fall again.Kilian managed to pull me up to the walls, and I gripped a rock for support, then began to climb up the mountain with him. I was determined to bring her with me, no matter what it would take.I and Killian didn’t speak to each other until we had climbed up to the to
