CHAPTER SIXTEEN

AMELIA’S POV

“Cassian, I asked you a question.”

My voice cut through the council room, but the man standing before me remained silent. His eyes were fixed on the letter Rowan had placed on the table, particularly the final sentence written in red ink.

Ask Cassian what he did to keep her alive.

For twenty years, I had believed Cassian Veyne was a friend of my father who had died protecting our family. Then he had appeared in the forest, alive and apparently determined to h

  • THE VAMPIRE'S ALPHA QUEEN    The mother he never knew

    CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE LUCIEN’S POV “My little Lucien.” The words settled over me like a memory I had spent centuries trying to find. I stared at the woman standing beside the altar. She looked at me with a tenderness I had never known, and something inside my chest ached in response. I had been told my mother died when I was too young to remember her. My father had never spoken much about her, and I had never questioned him. There had been no portraits, no personal belongings, no stories from servants who had known her. I had assumed grief had made him keep her memory private. Now I wondered whether he had been trying to protect himself from remembering her at all. “Are you really my mother?” I asked. Her eyes filled with tears. “I am the memory your father was forced to surrender.” “That isn't an answer.” “No,” she whispered. “It isn't.” Amelia moved closer to me. “Lucien, we need to be careful. The prison has been using familiar faces to manipulate us.” The woman turne

  • THE VAMPIRE'S ALPHA QUEEN    What The King Forgot

    CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT LUCIEN’S POV “Don't let him remember.” The child's whisper lingered in the chamber. I stared at the journal, unable to ignore the words that had appeared beneath the drawing of the crown. My father's memories had been surrendered centuries ago. I had grown up believing the sacrifice was complete, that whatever he had given up had disappeared beyond recovery. Now the journal suggested otherwise. And something beneath the old throne chamber clearly wanted me to remain ignorant. Amelia turned towards me. “Lucien?” I looked at her. “I'm fine.” Her expression hardened. “You promised not to lie to me.” I exhaled slowly. “I don't know what remembering will do to me.” “That isn't the same as being fine.” She was right. The black symbol beneath my shirt had spread further across my chest. Every time the journal changed, it pulsed as though something were responding to it. I could feel the prison's presence through the mark, a cold pressure against my hear

  • THE VAMPIRE'S ALPHA QUEEN    The part She left behind

    CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN AMELIA’S POV “I'm the part of you your mother had to leave behind.” The child's words echoed through the chamber. I couldn't move. The hand reaching through the broken mirror was small, pale and trembling. I could see the outline of a little girl behind the glass, but her face remained hidden beneath a curtain of dark hair. “Amelia, don't go near it,” Lucien warned. I barely heard him. “Who are you?” I whispered. The child lifted her head. My breath caught. She had my face. Not the face I saw in the mirror every morning, but a younger version of it. The same eyes, the same shape of the mouth, the same small scar above the left eyebrow that I had carried since childhood. I took a step forward. “Amelia,” Lucien repeated, moving closer. The child pressed her palm against the glass. “Don't let them take me away again.” My heart tightened. “Who took you?” She looked towards Cassian. He stood frozen, his face drained of colour. “Cassian?” He didn't

  • THE VAMPIRE'S ALPHA QUEEN    The Queen In The Mirror

    CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX AMELIA’S POV“I am the first Queen.”The woman's voice came from the mirror, calm and commanding. She wore a silver crown, and her long dark hair fell over a gown that seemed to be made of moonlight. Her face was beautiful, but there was something unsettling about the way she looked at me.She looked like someone who had been waiting a very long time.Cassian remained on his knees.“Impossible,” he whispered.The woman turned her attention towards him.“Still alive, Cassian? You have always been difficult to get rid of.”His expression hardened.“You are not her.”A faint smile touched her lips.“You knew me once.”“I knew the First Luna. I know what she looked like. You are using her image.”The woman's smile disappeared.“I am not the First Luna.”“Then who are you?” I demanded.Her gaze returned to me.“The woman whose blood made your existence possible.”My stomach tightened.“You expect me to believe that?”“I expect you to remember.”The mirror rippled.For a

  • THE VAMPIRE'S ALPHA QUEEN    Before I Was Born

    CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE AMELIA’S POVFor several seconds, I couldn't understand what Cassian had said.I stared at him, waiting for him to take back his words, to explain that the prisoner was lying again. But he only looked at me with the same grief I had seen in my mother's memories.“You met it before I was born?” I repeated.Cassian lowered his head.“Yes.”My stomach tightened.“How?”“Amelia, there are things your mother and father tried desperately to keep from you. They believed that if you never knew the truth, the prison would never be able to use it against you.”“And you knew?”“I was there.”The words struck harder than I expected.I stepped away from him.“You knew all this time?”“I knew what happened before your birth. I knew what your mother feared. But I didn't understand how much of it had survived until the prison began awakening.”“You watched me grow up knowing something was inside me?”“Nothing was inside you,” he said quickly. “Not then. Your mother made certain o

  • THE VAMPIRE'S ALPHA QUEEN    The Voice That Wore My Face

    CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR AMELIA’S POV “Let me out.” The voice sounded exactly like mine. It carried the same tone, the same slight rasp, even the same breathless quality that crept into my words whenever I was afraid but refused to admit it. For one terrible moment, I couldn't tell where my thoughts ended and the voice began. My palm burned. The black mark stretched farther up my wrist, its dark veins moving beneath my skin like something alive. I tried to close my fingers, but my hand refused to obey. “Amelia!” Lucien's voice reached me from somewhere beyond the darkness pressing against my mind. I looked at him, but his face seemed distant. The black symbol over his heart had spread beneath his shirt, and I could feel the prison responding to his pain. “Don't listen to it,” he said. The voice inside my head laughed softly. He is afraid. I swallowed. He knows what you are becoming. “Stop,” I whispered. Cassian moved closer, but Lucien caught his arm before he could touch
