“Don’t beat around the bush, Noah. Are you trying to manipulate me again about my parents?” Lilith asked, her tone now sounding confrontational toward Noah.

Noah didn’t answer right away. He just stared at the surface of the lake for a few moments. Finally, Noah let out a small smile, a smile that did nothing to put Lilith at ease.

“Your father really does love you very much, Lilith.”

Lilith’s heart immediately tightened. “W-what?”

Noah sighed. “He’s spent years trying to keep you away from thi

    That night, Lilith didn’t go straight back to Lucas’s mansion. She didn’t even remember how her feet had carried her away from the lake. All Lilith could remember was Noah’s voice. “I killed your father.” Those words kept spinning in Lilith’s head. Over and over, painful, devastating, and the more she thought about them, the harder it was for her to breathe.“Lilith.”That voice made Lilith stop. Lucas. He was standing a few meters in front of her now. His dark red gaze immediately fell on Lilith’s right hand, the hand she’d just used to slap Noah hard across the face. The hand was now red and starting to swell. Lucas’s expression changed instantly.“What happened over there just now?”Lilith lowered her head for a moment. Only now did the pain truly set in on the palm of her hand. It was throbbing and burning intensely. Lucas immediately stepped closer.“Lilith...”Lilith immediately tried to hide her right palm behind her back. But Lucas was much faster. Very carefully, Lucas grippe

    “Don’t beat around the bush, Noah. Are you trying to manipulate me again about my parents?” Lilith asked, her tone now sounding confrontational toward Noah.Noah didn’t answer right away. He just stared at the surface of the lake for a few moments. Finally, Noah let out a small smile, a smile that did nothing to put Lilith at ease.“Your father really does love you very much, Lilith.”Lilith’s heart immediately tightened. “W-what?”Noah sighed. “He’s spent years trying to keep you away from this world of darkness.”Lilith furrowed her brow. “What do you mean by that?”“Your mother passed away first. From that moment on, your father knew you’d only have him left.” Noah’s voice sounded flat.Lilith froze for a moment, because Noah was right. After her mother’s death, her father had indeed become her whole world.“Your father knew there was something constantly closing in on you, hunting you.”Noah looked up. “He just didn’t know how close I was at the time.”Lilith’s breath caught in he

    Lilith’s phone kept ringing. Noah. The name was still lit up on the screen, like a very bad omen. Lilith stared at it for a few seconds. She didn’t move and had no intention of answering right away. Beside her, Lucas was also silent.But the atmosphere between them had changed so quickly it felt almost unreal. Just a few seconds ago, they’d been standing so close that Lilith could feel Lucas’s breath. It felt so cold. And now? Just the name “Noah” was enough to shatter that moment.Lilith’s phone stopped ringing shortly after. She let out a soft sigh. Then it started ringing again right away. Noah again. Lucas looked away. He was clearly trying to keep his cool right now. Which actually made Lilith feel a little guilty.Because she knew very well that Lucas still didn’t like Noah one bit. And that was probably one of the mildest statements ever made in history. The two of them had practically hated each other for centuries. The phone kept ringing, and finally Lilith gave in.“I have t

    Lilith couldn’t remember the last time she’d slept so peacefully. No nightmares. No flashes of memory that made her wake up in the middle of the night. No fear that seemed to haunt her constantly. Just a very peaceful and very deep sleep.When she opened her eyes the next morning, sunlight was already streaming through the cracks in the curtains. For a few seconds, Lilith just lay still, savoring all the peace she’d found there. Then her memories came flooding back, the mansion, the embrace, Lucas, and instantly, it all made her bury her face in the pillow.“Oh my God...”Lilith had actually hugged Lucas last night. That hug wasn’t driven by their bond, or panic, or a loss of control. But Lilith had truly done it because she genuinely wanted to. And now, there was no way to pretend it didn’t mean anything between the two of them.When Lilith finally went downstairs, the aroma of coffee and breakfast immediately greeted her. Veronica was sitting in the dining room with a glass filled w

    Lilith was supposed to be home before nightfall. At least, that was the plan. Go to Lucas’s mansion, have lunch together, spend a few hours in the library, then head back to her rented house. Simple. But the thing was, nothing felt simple anymore when it came to Lucas.Or this mansion, or even Lilith herself. The rain that had been falling since the afternoon grew heavier as night approached. Thunder could even be heard occasionally in the distance, coming from the forest surrounding the mansion. It made the atmosphere outside feel much colder and darker. Meanwhile, inside the mansion, everything felt warm.Lilith stood by the library window, watching the rain. Lucas was still on the same sofa, reading a book or perhaps just pretending to read. Because several times, Lilith caught Lucas glancing up at her. And every time that happened, Lucas didn’t seem the least bit embarrassed.“Why are you smiling?” Lucas asked softly.Lilith turned her head immediately. “I’m not smiling.”“You are

    That night, Lilith couldn’t sleep. Not because of dreams, the bond, or Noah. But because of one stupid sentence that had come out of her own mouth. “I’m starting to hate it when you do that.” Damn it. Lilith had actually said that right to Lucas’s face. And what was far worse was that Lucas had heard it loud and clear.Lilith pulled the blanket up to cover her face, then groaned softly. “Why did I say that just now...”Because even now, Lilith could no longer pretend. Not to herself. Not after everything that had happened. Not after the way Lucas touched her hair that afternoon. Not after the look they’d shared. And most of all, not after Lilith realized she didn’t want Lucas to drift away from her again.The next morning, Lilith decided to do something else more productive. Or at least she tried to. She cleaned the house. She started by sweeping the floor, doing laundry, and anything else that might keep her mind occupied. But unfortunately, nothing worked.Because every few minutes,

    “Lilith? I know you can hear me. So open the door now...” Noah said in a calm tone from behind the door. His voice was so unnervingly calm that it sent a chill down Lilith’s spine.Ingrid, who was standing right in front of Lilith, began to spread her arms out to the sides of her body, and a faint

    Lilith stared at Ingrid without blinking once, her heart racing again. “God... does this have to keep going on? Does this mean I... we’re going to face a threat from Noah, is that it? I’m exhausted,” said Lilith.Ingrid didn’t look surprised. “That’s only natural...”“No. That’s not natural.” Lilit

    Morning came too soon, and Lilith had barely slept at all after her dream about Margaux. Every time Lilith closed her eyes, she saw the black water again, the red eyes at the bottom of the lake, and Margaux’s voice echoing in her head over and over.Lilith stood in the small kitchen of her rented h

    The night felt so quiet as Noah stood on the roof of the tallest building in the city center. Noah gazed at the lights below him without really focusing his gaze on anything in particular. The night breeze blew cold, rustling the long black coat he was wearing. Yet nothing could truly soothe the tu
