The world narrowed to the space between my daughter and me. The metallic scent of blood, the groans of the wounded, the wary presence of the warriors—it all faded into a dull hum. There was only Elisse’s face, her small features contorting as she processed Anya’s words.

She was your mother.

The past tense was a knife twist, but the acknowledgment was a lifeline.

Elisse’s brow furrowed. She looked from Anya’s solemn face to mine, her eyes—Kairi’s eyes—searching, probing the face of the blood-streaked stranger before her. The silence stretched, thin and agonizing.

“I… I have a dream sometimes,” she whispered, her voice so small it was nearly carried away by the valley wind. “Of a big, dark room with fire. And a voice… a deep voice, telling stories about the stars.”

My breath hitched. Kairi. She remembered his voice.

Her gaze dropped to the hunting knife still clutched in my hand. “You fought the bad men.”

“Yes,” I managed, my own voice a ragged tear in the fabric of the silence.

“Why?”

  • THE SUBSTITUTE MATE FOR THE ALPHA KING   CHAPTER 118

    “It’s a rather bland eternity, isn’t it?” a voice remarked, smooth as polished stone. “One would think the architects of the cosmos could afford a better palette.”My head snapped up. The voice had not come from within my mind, nor from some hidden speaker. It was there, in the cell with me. Except it wasn't. A section of the seamless white wall opposite me shimmered and became a transparent window. In an identical white room, a man sat in an identical chair, watching me with an expression of wry amusement.He was lean, with sharp features and silver-streaked black hair. His eyes were the color of a twilight sky, and they crinkled at the corners as he smiled. “Apologies for the intrusion. I find the silence here… deafening. I’m Silas.”My heart hammered against my ribs, a frantic bird in a cage. This was wrong. This violated every term of our sacrifice. “How are you here?” I demanded, my voice rough from disuse. “The Watchers promised isolation.”“The Watchers promised containment,” h

    “There is a third way,” Kairi said, his voice cutting through the terrified silence left by the Watcher’s ultimatum. “But you’re not going to like it.”The massive alien ship hung above us, a silent promise of annihilation. My heart, which had just soared at our reunion, plummeted into a cold abyss. “What way?” I demanded, my voice raw. “How can there be another way when their only choices are our death or everyone’s?”He finally turned from staring at the empty space where the envoy had stood. The cosmic storm in his eyes was back, churning with a terrifying, calculated resolve. “They see one anomaly. The ‘Sze-Kairi Paradox.’ A fused constant. But we aren’t fused like we were. The Living Law shattered our perfect bond. What we have now is a scar. It’s stronger, but it’s also… separable.”The cold dread in my stomach turned to ice. “Separable? Kairi, what are you saying?”“I’m saying we give them two smaller problems instead of one big one,” he explained, his words intense and rapid.

    The silence that followed the spirit’s words was heavier than any that had come before. The battle was over. Renejay was gone, consumed by her own final, spiteful act. The immediate threat was neutralized. But as the vast, alien ship finished its passage through the tear and hung silently in the sky above Cresendo, dwarfing the Citadel, we all understood that a different kind of war had just begun.The crowd, moments ago a seething mass of fury and fear, was now utterly still, their faces upturned in a terror that was beyond comprehension. This was not a tyrant they could overthrow. This was something from the stars.Kairi helped me to my feet, his arm still tight around me. The cosmic power that had radiated from him during the fight was now banked, controlled, but I could feel the immense pressure of it, a sun contained within his flesh. His eyes, however, were

    Renejay stared at the damning tapestry in the sky, her face a ghastly white. Her legacy, her life’s ambition, was being unraveled before her eyes.“NO!” she screamed, a raw, desperate sound.She looked from the furious crowd to Kairi’s implacable face, to her son cowering on the throne. Her eyes, wild and cornered, finally landed on me.And in them, I saw the last, dying ember of her malice ignite into a final, spiteful inferno. She knew she was finished. She knew her son was finished. Her reign was over.But if she was going to fall, she would take everything with her.Her hand darted into the folds of her gown. She wasn’t reaching for a weapon. She was pulling out a smal

    The silence in the courtyard was absolute, broken only by the faint, electric hum emanating from the tear in the sky and the ragged breaths of a thousand terrified people. Kairi’s declaration hung in the air, not as a threat, but as a simple, undeniable statement of fact, like the sun rising.He stood with his arm around me, a bastion of cosmic power and ancient love, and I felt the shattered pieces of my soul click back into place. We were whole. The Constant was gone, but what stood in its place was something fiercer, more personal. It was us.Renejay was the first to break. Her face, a mask of calculated cruelty moments before, was now contorted with a fury so pure it seemed to vibrate the air around her. She rose from her seat, pointing a trembling finger.“Kill them!” she shrieked, her voice cracking. “He is one man! Kill them both!”A dozen of the Alpha’s personal guard, clad in the finest steel and fueled by fanatical loyalty, surged from the edges of the dais. They were the be

    The name tore from my throat, a raw, final offering to the uncaring sky. It was not a call for rescue. It was a declaration. A testament that even here, at the end, I was his, and he was mine.I braced for the bite of the axe, for the cold kiss of the block.It never came.Instead, the world… shivered.It was a subtle thing at first. A tremor in the stone beneath my knees. A flicker in the light, as if the sun had blinked. The descending axe seemed to hesitate for a fraction of a second, its edge hanging in the air.Then, the sky tore open.Directly above the courtyard, a wound ripped in the fabric of reality. It wasn't the elegant, controlled breach Lyra could create. This was violent, jagged, and screaming with raw, untamed power. The color leached from the world, everything cast in the stark, monochrome light of a dead star.From the heart of the tear, a figure fell.It was a man. He landed on the platform between me and the executioner with a crash that shattered the wooden planks
