Kael

I was used to eating alone, I mean, I relished in the quiet and the silence while I concentrated on the meal in front of me but tonight, my thoughts were louder than the bones shattering beneath the weight of my jaw.

It environment felt like a haunted tomb, the turmoils in my head causing the food to taste stale in my mouth. The chandelier above cast jagged shadows across the floor, shadows that accompanied me in the madness that was pounding through me.

I sat at the head of the massive ma

  • Mated to My Enemy: Tamed by the Tyrant Prince   Chapter 215

    DariusA year changed things.Not all at once. Not dramatically. The way things actually changed, which was slowly and without announcement, one repaired wall at a time, one returned pack member at a time, one morning where you woke up and reached for the bond and it was there, warm and steady and humming with the particular frequency of the person sleeping beside you, and you didn't have to think about it because it had never been gone, or it felt that way now, the way healed things eventually felt like they had always been whole.The pack house took four months to restore fully.Kael had overseen most of it personally, which surprised nobody. He was the kind of man who needed his hands in the work, who processed grief and guilt and the long aftermath of catastrophe through physical labor, through the specific satisfaction of a wall replastered and a floor relaid and a roof that no longer leaked when the autumn rains came. I had watched him from various windows and doorways across th

    DariusI woke up alone.Not unusual. Kael had always been an early riser, up before the light, moving through the house with the quiet restlessness of someone whose brain refused to idle. I had spent years learning to sleep through it, the soft sounds of him in the kitchen, the creak of the back door when he went out to run the perimeter at dawn.But this was different.I woke up alone and reached instinctively for the bond, the way I had every morning for years, that first half-conscious check, the way you might reach for a glass of water without fully opening your eyes. Muscle memory. Reflex.My hand found empty air.I lay on my back in the salvaged bedroom on the second floor, the one Soren's unit had cleared and deemed structurally sound, and I stared at the ceiling and felt the hollow place in my chest do its slow aching pulse. Still there. Still fraying at the edges. The purge had taken the First out of Kael's blood clean and complete but the rejection had happened before that,

    KaelI told them at dawn.The pack had gathered in the clearing east of the house, the one we used for assemblies and celebrations and the kind of announcements that couldn't be made indoors. Two hundred and thirty-one wolves, what remained of us after everything, standing in the pale early light with their breath misting and their eyes on me. Soren had his unit at the perimeter. The younger wolves stood in clusters, leaning into each other the way wolves did when the world felt unstable. The elders were at the front, their faces already arranged into the careful neutrality of people bracing for bad news.I stood in front of all of them and I told them the truth."Aveline Fenrir," I said, and my voice carried the way an Alpha's voice was built to carry, steady and clear and reaching every ear in the clearing, "gave her life last night to end the infestation. She carried the Obsidian Orb to the anchor point and she broke it. She saved this territory. She saved every one of you." I paus

    DariusThe tear opened without warning.One second the basement was holding, tense and still, Kael's hands over mine on the Orb, the anchor point pulsing its slow violet rhythm. The next second the largest crack in the floor split wide, a sound like the world clearing its throat, and the light that poured out of it was not violet anymore.It was black. Absolute and total, the kind of black that wasn't an absence of light but a presence of something else entirely."Move!" Aveline shouted.We scattered. The crack widened fast, spiderwebbing across the floor in every direction, and from it came the demons, not the six that had been watching from the walls but dozens, pouring upward like water finding a drain in reverse, their wrongly jointed limbs unfolding as they hit air, their knuckle-crack sounds overlapping into a grinding roar that filled the basement and bounced off the black-sheeted walls.Reed was fighting before I'd fully registered the scale of it. Silver blade in each hand, m

    DariusWe heard the pack house before we saw it. Not screaming. Not the sounds of active fighting. Something worse than both of those a low, grinding resonance that seemed to come from the earth itself, like the foundations were being slowly digested. The trees thinned as we approached the eastern perimeter and I could see the house through the gaps, lit from within by a light that was definitely not electricity. Violet. Pulsing. The same color as the smoke in Valerius's chamber."It's accelerating," Aveline said quietly."How many pack members still inside?" Kael asked."None. Soren evacuated the last of them two hours ago. The house is empty." She paused. "Mostly.""Mostly," Reed repeated."There are demons roosting in the upper levels now. They weren't doing that yesterday." She looked at Kael. "Whatever is anchoring the infestation, it's settling in. Making a home."Kael's jaw tightened. He was still pressing his hand against his side, the bleeding had slowed but I could see the

    KaelThe first wall was easy. Reed took out the two patrol guards before they had time to register that something was wrong, clean and quiet, and we were through the outer perimeter in under three minutes. Aveline produced the scent suppressant from her satchel, a thick grey paste that smelled like wet ash and nothing else, and we applied it in silence and moved to the second wall.The ward against wolf-kind sat in the air like pressure. I felt it before I saw it, a resistance against my skin, like walking into water. The dark lines on my arm flared once, hot and sharp, and the voice stirred.“Interesting,” it said. “Old vampire craft. I remember when they first learned to do this.”I ignored it and pushed through. The resistance peaked and released, and we were on the other side, and the voice went quiet again."Everyone through?" Aveline whispered.Three nods."Third wall in forty meters. Once we cross it we are visible to every vampire inside. From that point, twelve minutes. Not e

    ELENAI sat on the chair on the platform, crossing my legs and staring at the crowd that had pooled because of the order. There was a thrill that coursed through my veins while I watched everything play out, there was this sickening pleasure that burned inside of me as they held the mother back ami

    DariusI didn’t need to be a soothsayer or a witch to know that we were absolutely fucked with nowhere to go. If these men caught me, there would take me directly to the chambers and there was no way I would make it out alive this time because Kael was done with me. They would probably get Aveline

    DariusWe paused like the entire world had come to a stand still and we had merely imagined the noise. I panned from the door, slowly, back to Aveline whose eyes were in slits and stuff fixed on the door.“Are you sure you're alone?” I said softly and then the sound came again, this time louder and

    Darius“Do you know his name?” I asked even when all the pieces of evidence pointed to one person. I just wanted to be sure and fully grounded in the fact that Luca had other plans when he decided he decided he was coming back here. For one, I already knew he was back because of her, but why would
