Chapter 145: Broken Stone

ANYA’S POV

I parked the black SUV at the edge of the clearing and killed the engine. The ruins loomed ahead under the moonlight like jagged teeth jutting from the earth. My hands stayed steady on the wheel for one long breath before I stepped out and closed the door with a soft click. Iris and Gavin waited in their own vehicle further back with the others, ready to move on my signal. I walked forward alone across cracked pavement and scattered rubble. Each step echoed

    Chapter 147: Stranger in Familiar Skin ANYA’S POV I closed the bedroom door behind us and leaned against it for a moment. My body still ached from Cassandra’s attack but the pain in my chest felt heavier than any bruise. Damien stood near the window with his back to me. Dirt streaked his arms and neck. His hair hung wild and unkempt past his shoulders. The left side of his face caught the lamplight and showed the old scar that ran from his temple down across his cheek and pulled slightly at the corner of his eye. He kept that side turned away from me as if he could hide it.I took a slow step forward. “Damien.”He stiffened but did not turn. I crossed the room anyway and reached for him. My arms slid around his waist from behind and I pressed my cheek to his back. He smelled of dust and sweat and something metallic. For one heartbeat I let myself believe everything would snap back into place. Then he shifted sideways with a quiet grunt and stepped out of my hold.“I should wash fir

    Chapter 146: Echoes Returned DAMIEN’S POV Darkness pressed on me from every side. I floated in nothing and everything at once. Cold wrapped my limbs while faint silver threads drifted past my face. Then a sound cut through the void. A woman screamed my name. The voice cracked with terror and reached straight into my chest. I tried to move toward it but chains of shadow held me down. The scream came again louder this time mixed with sobs and desperate pleas.“Please Damien. Come back. Save us. The baby. She is killing our baby.” Pain exploded behind my eyes. I thrashed against the darkness and felt something inside me snap. The voice belonged to someone important. It pulled me harder than any force I knew. My body burned as light pierced the black veil around me. I clawed forward through layers of nothing until the world slammed back into focus with brutal force.I stood in the middle of ruined stone walls with torches flickering around me. Blood roared in my ears. A massive wolf pi

My hands stayed steady on the wheel for one long breath before I stepped out and closed the door with a soft click. Iris and Gavin waited in their own vehicle further back with the others, ready to move on my signal. I walked forward alone across cracked pavement and scattered rubble. Each step echoed in the quiet night.Cassandra stood in the center of the old stone chamber with torches burning around her. Damien’s body lay on a raised slab behind her wrapped in black cloth. She smiled when she saw me approach. The expression carried no warmth, only sharp satisfaction.“You actually came,” she said as she circled slowly around the slab. “I thought the dream I sent might scare you off. Guess you are still the same foolish girl chasing things you cannot keep.” I stopped ten feet away and kep

    Chapter 144: Threads of ResolveANYA’S POVMorning light filtered weakly through the heavy curtains and painted pale stripes across the floor of my chambers. I sat on the edge of the bed with my hands pressed to my belly and tried to shake the lingering horror from the nightmare. My eyes felt swollen and raw. Every breath still carried the echo of my own screams from the dark hours. I pushed to my feet and walked to the basin to splash cold water on my face. The shock of it grounded me enough to steady my trembling fingers. Iris entered without knocking, carrying a tray of bread, honey, and the familiar jar from Elowen. She took one look at me and set the tray down hard. “You look like you fought a dozen battles in your sleep. Talk to me.” I dried my face with a rough cloth and met her worried gaze. “The dream felt too real. Damien chased me through the forest. He wanted to tear the pup from my body. He said I lost everything and deserved nothing. I begged him to stop but he kept co

  • THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA    143. Nightmare's Grip

    Chapter 143: Nightmare’s Grip ANYA’S POVI tossed in the large bed and pulled the heavy blankets tighter around my shoulders. The room sat dark except for a single candle on the bedside table that flickered low and cast shaky shadows across the walls. Sleep had stayed away most of the night but exhaustion finally dragged me under in the deepest hours before dawn. My body sank into the mattress while my mind slipped into the dream without warning.I stood in a familiar forest clearing under a blood-red moon. Trees loomed tall and twisted with branches that reached like claws. The air felt thick and cold against my skin. Then I saw him. Damien walked out from between two ancient oaks with his golden eyes glowing in the crimson light. Relief flooded through me so strong my knees nearly buckled. “Damien,” I called and ran toward him with my arms open. “You are here. You came back to me.” He did not smile. His face stayed hard as stone while he stepped closer with slow deliberate stride

  • THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA    142. Blood Calls Blood

    Chapter 142: Blood Calls BloodANYA’S POVI paced the length of my chambers with the crumpled note still clutched in my fist. The words burned behind my eyes even after I had read them a dozen times. Cassandra. My own sister had stolen Damien’s body and now she dangled it like fresh meat to lure me out. Three nights. The old ruins north of the river bend. Come alone or watch pieces of him arrive at the gates. I stopped near the window and pressed my forehead against the cool glass. The pup inside me gave a small flutter as if sensing my storm. Iris sat on the edge of the bed with her hands folded tight in her lap. Gavin leaned against the far wall with his arms crossed and his sword resting nearby. The lantern light flickered across their faces and showed the same grim resolve I felt twisting in my gut. “She wants me broken before the blade even touches my skin,” I said as I turned to face them. “She knows I will come for him. The question is how we answer without handing her exactl
