‎Matteo leaned casually against the long table, a half-smirk on his lips, while Lucien tossed a blade in the air, catching it without looking.

‎“You know, Kane,” Lucien started, “I thought I’d seen everything. But your sweet little kitten moaning in your arms, in front of your mother and that soul-sucking Alyssa? That... was a showstopper.”

‎Matteo chuckled darkly. “I swear, she latched onto your shirt and started murmuring things like ‘take me now’ and ‘I want you Kane’ like the rest of us weren’t even there.”

‎Lucien nodded with a low whistle. “The horror on Delilah’s face. I think Alyssa nearly choked on her fake composure. And Kareen—Kareen looked like she’d won the damn lottery and your dad was just embarrassed.”

‎Kane sat back, a rare smile curving his lips. “She’s grown,” he said softly, pride glinting in his eyes. “I told you I’d build her... piece by piece. Fuck her into who she was meant to be. She’s almost there.” He looked away briefly, hiding a glint of heat in hi

  • Tainted Desires; Demons. Darkness. Damnation    The Devil asks Permission to Burn

    ‎Leo’s Room – Four Days Later‎‎The mansion had gone still. Not quiet—still.‎The kind of stillness that comes before a storm breaks bones.‎No one dared disturb Kane. Not even to breathe near him.‎He hadn’t left Leo’s side in four days. Not to eat. Not to sleep. Not even to scream.‎Lucien and Matteo handled all external affairs. One glance from Kane had been enough:‎“Keep them alive.”‎The implication: Until I decide who burns first.‎‎They all knew it—Delilah had crossed a line only Leo could pull Kane back from.‎She was banking on one thing to stay safe—Leo’s mercy.‎Because Kane would raze the world, but never against Leo’s will.‎She was hiding behind Leo’s heart.‎And Kane hated that heart had once loved her.‎Castelle had done what she could.‎She offered tea, back rubs, warm baths. She wrapped Kane in her arms when the pain made him tremble, he sought release between her thighs because nothing else soothed him.‎But it was only her. Only Kane in Castelle’s arms that gave

    ‎Meanwhile in Leo’s Room‎‎The machines hummed low.‎IV fluid dripped with sterile rhythm.‎Leo’s body lay still—limp, quiet—but something deep within him stirred.‎His breathing hitched.‎Brows creased faintly.‎‎And then, in a voice so soft it could’ve been the air itself, his lips parted around a single name.‎‎“Rem…”‎‎A tear slipped from the corner of his closed eye, trailing a silver path down his pale cheek.‎Even in unconsciousness… he remembered.‎The man.‎‎The only one—other than Kane—who had ever made him feel truly seen. Truly wanted.‎‎Remile.‎‎That was the name Leo knew him by. A shadow of a man who held him through sleepless nights. Who whispered promises against his skin. Who kissed him with a reverence Leo had never known.‎‎The man who touched his scars like they weren’t flaws.‎‎The one who looked into him and didn’t flinch.‎‎Remile had seen through the mask. Past the pain. Into the trembling core of Leo’s heart—the part that begged to be loved.‎‎And

    ‎The machines beeped steadily in the background, Leo’s body still motionless, save for the subtle rise and fall of his chest. Kane stood like a statue, arms crossed, eyes fixed on Leo—haunted.‎‎He ran a hand through his thick hair, fingers curling at the roots like he wanted to rip something apart. His jaw was tight, a vein ticking at his temple.‎‎The door creaked open behind him.‎Lucien and Matteo stepped in quietly.‎Kane didn’t flinch.‎He didn’t have to look to know who they were.‎Only when he sensed their pause did he finally turn.‎His eyes were dark. Hollowed. Wild.‎“How’s my Queen?” he asked hoarsely.‎‎Lucien gave a soft nod. “She’s curled up in my bed. With Lyra and Mason. She misses you, but… she’s okay. She’s safe.”‎‎Kane’s fist clenched. The sound of his knuckles cracking echoed through the room.‎Without warning, he turned and punched the wall.‎Hard.‎The plaster cracked under the force, his knuckles splitting open.‎‎“Check the fucking CCTV,” he barked, his

    ‎The room was still. The warmth of their bodies tangled beneath the duvet. Kane’s breathing had evened out, his arm draped protectively over Castelle, who lay nestled against his chest, heart steady for the first time in days.‎‎But then—‎‎A scream tore through the silence. Shrill. Gut-wrenching. Kareen.‎‎Kane was up before she could blink.‎‎Castelle barely had time to grab the sheet and clutch it to her chest before he was at the door, yanking on his trousers with shaking hands. She followed quickly, dragging on the nearest robe as her heartbeat thundered in her ears.‎‎Down the hall, doors opened. Footsteps echoed. Shouts filled the once-quiet corridors.‎‎Another scream—“HELP! KANE!” Kareen’s voice cracked like glass.‎‎They burst into Leo’s room at the same time as Lucien and Matteo, Kareen crouched on the floor, sobbing violently over something—someone.‎‎Leo.‎‎He was slumped at the foot of the bed, his wrist split open in a jagged line. Blood pooled beneath his limp

    ‎‎The night had swallowed the estate whole.‎‎In the quiet stillness of Kane’s private quarters, the outside world no longer existed. Just the weight of the silence, the warmth beneath the duvet, and two souls learning how to breathe again.‎‎Castelle lay curled into Kane, their bare skin pressed together under the soft cocoon of covers. His arm wrapped around her like a shield—solid, unmoving, safe. His breath kissed the top of her head with every exhale, while his hand stroked her back in slow, calming circles.‎‎“I used to think I wasn’t meant to be loved,” she whispered into the silence, her voice raw. “Before you, they never saw me. Just used me. Rooms I couldn’t escape. Shadows that smelled like liquor. I wasn’t a person—I was a body.”‎‎Kane didn’t speak.‎‎He only held her tighter, his hand pausing at the base of her spine, grounding her.‎‎“I thought I was broken,” she continued, chest tightening. “Especially after my ex-husband came back. I had finally started stitchi

    ‎‎Mason lay curled on his side, tangled in the sheets like a sulking cat, the morning light revealing every scratch, welt, and love-bite that marked his skin like tattoo.‎‎Matteo stood by the window, buttoning his black shirt, the weight of the day’s mission already pressing against his shoulders. But it was Mason’s quiet huff behind him that made him pause.‎‎“You’re not allowed to see Castelle,” Matteo said finally, turning.‎‎Mason groaned. “Kane’s orders?”‎Matteo nodded. “Part of the punishment. No contact. No chaos.”‎‎“But I didn't even touch her! Just helped Lyra tie her up,” Mason whined dramatically, rolling onto his back with a wince. “God, my ass still hurts. You Wrecked me.”‎‎“And you loved it,” Matteo said dryly, though the faintest smile tugged at his mouth.‎Mason pouted. “That’s not the point. I look like I lost a fight with a wolf.”‎‎Matteo walked over, crouching by the bed. His fingers brushed over a bruised hip, then a scratch on Mason’s side. “You didn’t
