Pregnant for the ruthless billionaire vampire Chapter 66
ELENA'S POVThe white didn't fade so much as it pulled apart, like fabric being torn slowly enough to feel every thread give.I was still standing. That was the first thing I understood, not collapsed, not gone, upright inside the circle with the chanting still moving around me, lower now, strained, the coven's voices fighting to hold a shape that wanted to come undone."She's still here," Esmeralda said, somewhere to my left. "The binding is holding. Barely.""Barely isn't holding," Lucian said. His voice was very close. Closer than the outer ring should have allowed."Get back," Esmeralda said."No," he said.I felt his hand close around mine again, and through the bond I felt the full weight of what he was choosing, proximity to whatever was happening to me over compliance with a witch's instructions, every single time, no exceptions, not even now."Viviana," I said. My voice came out thin. "The baby—""I felt it the second you did," Viviana said. She'd stopped the formal chanting;
Pregnant for the ruthless billionaire vampire Chapter 65
ELENA'S POVThree weeks of preparation had aged my daughter five years.That was the number Esmeralda gave me when I asked, flat and unapologetic the way she gave everything. Three weeks of gathering components, of the coven working through rituals older than most of the supernatural world's written history, and somewhere in the middle of all that waiting, Aurora's rapid growth had finally found the plateau Esmeralda promised back when she was small enough to fit against my shoulder.She didn't fit against my shoulder anymore.She sat across from me now at the low table in our cottage, legs crossed, her dark hair longer, her face holding the particular gravity of a child who looked five years old and thought like someone considerably older. The baby fat was gone entirely. What remained was unmistakably her, Lucian's jaw, my stubbornness, gold eyes that tracked everything with the same unsettling completeness they'd had since her first hour alive."You don't have to watch this part," I

ELENA'S POVAurora's words sat in the room like something physical, taking up space, refusing to be reasoned with. Someone doesn't make it. I held onto Lucian's hand until my knuckles ached and watched our daughter standing in the doorway in her small nightgown, looking far too steady for what she'd just said."Who," I said. "Aurora, you have to give me something. A name. A feeling. Anything.""I don't know," she said."You said someone dies—""I said someone has to," she said. "Not who. I looked as hard as I could and the vision doesn't show me that part. It's like—" She stopped, searching for the words the way she always did now, vocabulary outrunning experience by weeks instead of years. "It's like a door that's open but the room behind it is dark. I can see that something happens. I can't see what it looks like."Lucian's hand tightened around mine."Could it be wrong?" he said. "The vision. Could you be misreading it?""I don't think so," Aurora said. Quiet. Certain in the parti

ELENA'S POV"Everyone I looked at was dying," Aurora said again.The wind on the hill kept moving like the world hadn't just tilted sideways."Show me," I said. My voice came out steadier than I felt. "Not the vision. Just, tell me what you saw. Slowly."Aurora's small hand tightened in mine. "Fire," she said. "And Seraphine on the ground, not moving. And you—" She stopped."Me what?" I said."You weren't there anymore," she said. "In some of them. Not in any of them, actually."Lucian's hand found my shoulder. I felt the bond go tight and cold on his end, the same drop I was feeling, neither of us finding words fast enough to fill the silence Aurora's voice had left behind."How many futures did you see?" Seraphine said. She'd crouched to Aurora's level, gold eyes steady, the only adult on that hill whose voice didn't shake."A lot," Aurora said. "They keep branching every time something changes. Every choice opens more." She looked up. "I only looked because I was scared. I wanted t

ELENA'S POVAurora was building something out of stones when I found her on the sanctuary's eastern hill.Not stacking them. Arranging them, a pattern that meant nothing to me and clearly meant something to her, her small hands moving with a precision that had no business belonging to a child who'd existed for three months.She looked like she could have been two years old. Dark hair past her shoulders now, the soft roundness of infancy gone from her face, replaced by something with actual structure to it, Lucian's jaw already starting to show underneath the baby fat that was disappearing faster than it should have."What are you building?" I said, sitting down beside her."Wall," she said.Her vocabulary had exploded in the last month. Esmeralda said that was consistent with the acceleration, language came online faster than the body sometimes needed it to, a side effect of a mind racing to catch up to itself."A wall for what?" I said.She looked up at me with those gold eyes, stead

ELENA'S POVEsmeralda's sanctuary sat behind wards that made my teeth ache the moment we crossed into them.Not painful exactly. Just present. A pressure against the threading framework that had nothing to do with Cain's frequency or anything vampiric at all, older, stranger, built from something that didn't answer to blood the way every other power I'd encountered did.Two months had passed since we walked through them the first time.Two months of living inside the sanctuary's borders while Esmeralda's coven debated terms, tested intentions, and slowly, carefully, on their own unhurried timeline, decided whether harboring the most hunted family in the supernatural world was a bargain worth making.Viviana was seven months now.The acceleration of the last weeks had cost her in ways that showed even when she insisted otherwise. She moved slower. She slept more, when she slept at all. Nara had taken to checking on her twice daily instead of once, and the two of them had developed the

ELENA'S POVI crossed the room in three strides and put myself between her and the device's escalating light and grabbed her shoulders and looked at her face and she was already shaking her head."Elena….""There's another way," I said. "There has to be another….""There isn't," she said. Her voice

ELENA'S POV"What is that?" I said.Morgana looked at the device on my mother's wrist. Then at me."Insurance," she said. "Placed before you arrived. In case this conversation didn't go the way I needed it to.""Remove it," I said."I can't," she said. "It's keyed to her blood. The binding is inte

ELENA'S POVThe building swallowed us whole.We came through the north loading dock at six fourteen, Viviana's ward sequence clearing the threshold cleanly, and the moment we were inside I felt it. The particular quality of a space that had been prepared for something specific. Not just fortified.

ELENA'S POVThe bond pulled the moment he crossed the threshold. I pressed it back before he finished walking through the door.He looked like he'd driven through the night again. Dark circles. Shirt open at the collar. His silver eyes found mine immediately across the main hall the way they alway
