My Manhattan penthouse usually felt like a sanctuary. Tonight, it was a war room.

Suitcases sprawled across the floor. My closet was half-empty. Leo sat cross-legged on the carpet, packing his miniature backpack with his tablet, a Rubik’s cube, and the little signal-blocking toy we’d built together on a rainy day last month—nothing fancy, just a fun project.

I stood by the window, staring at the contract signed by Kael Blackwood. My fingers trembled slightly.

  • Replaced by His First Love   Chapter 197: The Cannibal Run

    The air in the Grand Hall didn't just chill; it curdled.The scent of woodsmoke and wet fur was gone, replaced by something so intoxicating it made my own stone throat ache with a phantom thirst. It was the smell of the Marrow—the concentrated, ancient essence of the Primes, radiating from my bone-white arm like a god served on a silver platter.To a human, it might have smelled like ozone. To the Golden Pack, it smelled like the only thing worth living for.Ga-chi. Ga-chi.The grinding in my neck vibrated through the silence. The stone had reached the base of my skull, anchoring my head in a permanent stare. I couldn't look Leo in the eye, but I could feel his small, shivering frame pressed against my right side."Mommy..." Leo’s stuffy voice was a jagged razor. "Uncle Marek’s heart... it’s beating too fast. It sounds like teeth."He was right. Marek, the Alpha of the Southern Cross, took a step forward. His eyes weren't silver-gray anymore

  • Replaced by His First Love   Chapter 196: The Architect of Anatomy

    The bone-white claw didn’t just grab my arm; it calculated the density of my stone marrow and found it wanting.I stood paralyzed in the center of the collapsing Mirror of Ash, the silver-gray mist of the Second Prime’s defeat still swirling around my tactical boots like frozen smoke. The air in the void suddenly turned heavy—not with pressure, but with the cloying, metallic scent of a fresh kill and the raw, damp smell of earth that has never seen the sun.The Third Prime wasn't a shadow or a virus. It was the physical hunger of five centuries, manifested in a limb of vitrified bone.Ga-chi. Ga-chi.The tectonic grinding in my neck spiked. The petrification had settled into my jaw, but now it was vibrating in resonance with the claw. Every time the Third Prime’s fingers tightened around my obsidian forearm, a jolt of raw, biological electricity shot up my spine, trying to rewrite my DNA into a menu."You think the

  • Replaced by His First Love   Chapter 195: The Glass Architecture

    The mirrors didn’t just reflect; they judged, their silver-gray surfaces peeling back the skin of my reality to reveal the raw, bleeding anatomy of every choice I had ever failed to make.I stood in the center of the Mirror of Ash, my tactical boots crunching on pulverized bone and mercury frost. The air here was a pressurized vacuum of forgotten smells: the lavender of my mother’s hair, the copper of the New York basement, and the sulfur-sting of the night I died.Ga-chi. Ga-chi.The grinding in my neck vibrated through the silence. The stone had finalized around my jaw, leaving my mouth a rigid fissure of sovereign flint. I looked at the pillars surrounding the Second Prime’s throne—towering cylinders of focus-glass, each one holding a frozen, screaming image of a girl named Aria.Aria in the snow. Aria in the river. Aria signing the 14-B protocol with a hand that shook like a leaf."You think your armor is made of stone, Phoenix," the S

  • Replaced by His First Love   Chapter 194: The Ritual of the Discarded

    The air didn’t just rush back; it slammed into my lungs like a mouthful of gravel and freezing brine.I lay in the ash of the plaza, my fingers white-knuckled around Leo’s empty oxygen mask. The silence of the North was no longer a sanctuary—it was a burial shroud. The black geometric doorway where my son had disappeared was gone, leaving nothing but a faint, vibrating scar in the fabric of the air, a high-frequency whine that made the quartz in my neck scream.Ga-chi. Ga-chi.I forced my stone body upright, the rhythmic grinding of my joints a countdown to structural collapse. My obsidian left arm—the necrotic monument etched with the Second Prime’s sigil—was weeping a dark, iridescent fluid.He took the King. But he forgot that a King is nothing without his anchor.“Phoenix… his vitals… they’re flatlining on the global relay.” Marcus’s voice was a ruined whisper, coming from the tactical slate lying in the snow. He didn’t step closer. I

  • Replaced by His First Love   Chapter 193: The Breath Thief

    The oxygen didn’t just fade; it retreated, sucked out of the valley by a clinical, invisible hunger that tasted of stale pennies and burning nitrogen.I stood on the cracking obsidian of the plaza, my lungs expanding in a frantic, hollow rhythm. Each inhale was a mouthful of needles—dry, thin, and void of the life-force I needed. Around us, the few remaining Mercy wolves collapsed, their chests heaving, their eyes bulging as they clawed at their own throats in the absolute silence of the vacuum.The Second Prime wasn't just breaking the North; he was deleting the very chemistry of life.Ga-chi. Ga-chi.The grinding in my neck had stopped, replaced by a terrifying, airless stillness. My obsidian arm—the senseless, stone-dead monument—vibrated with a cold, ultraviolet light. It didn't need oxygen. It didn't need a heartbeat. It was a witness to the void, and for the first time in my life, my disability was the only thing keeping me upright in a wor

  • Replaced by His First Love   Chapter 192: The Worldless King

    The bedrock didn’t just shake; it hungered.The Grand Plaza of Rebirth City, once a monument to my iron-fisted logistics, was no longer a solid surface. It was a throat. The silver mercury I had used to cool the servers didn’t spill—it veined, burrowing into the fissures of the earth like parasitic roots seeking the heart of the world.The sound was a rhythmic, tectonic shriek—ga-chi, ga-chi—not from my neck this time, but from the very lithosphere of the North grinding against itself.“Mommy, the dirt is lying,” Leo whispered.He stood in the center of the collapsing rubble, his small boots vibrating as the stone beneath him tried to liquefy. His sapphire eyes were gone, replaced by those polished gold discs, but his voice was a terrifying, dual-layered resonance. The gravelly, Alpha Prime baritone of Kael was no longer a ghost; it was a pilot.“Aria… he is… the gravity…” Leo’s voice boomed with Kael’s authority. “The Second Prime… has sl

  • Replaced by His First Love   Chapter 45: Iron Rule of the East Wing

    The Council Hall of the Moon Pack was an echo of Kael’s soul: cold, cavernous, built from stones that had witnessed centuries of bloodletting. Today, the air inside wasn’t just heavy—it was nearly unbreathable. Not from smoke or fire, but from the suffocating weight of Kael Blackwood’s Alpha aura,

    The storm had passed, leaving the Moon Pack estate washed in a cold, gray stillness.Elder Thorne and his executioners were gone, chased off by the threat of economic collapse and a wall of wolf-warriors. But the threat hung in the air like ozone after lightning—invisible, suffocating, waiting to s

    Midnight in the East Wing felt like a tomb built from velvet and ice.Outside, the northern mist had returned, thick and relentless, coiling against the reinforced glass like ghosts with unfinished business. Inside the study, a single candle burned on the desk. Its amber flame flickered, stretchin

  • Replaced by His First Love   Chapter 41: Shared Heat

    The sulfurous air of Ash Valley thickened, shifting from a hazy red to a suffocating bruise-purple. The ground beneath Phoenix’s tactical boots pulsed with a bone-deep vibration, as if the mountain itself were running a fever.“The third gate,” Kael rasped.He stood at the edge of the circular ston
