Lilith turned her head...slow, careful, every movement requiring conscious effort, and saw them.

Nicholas standing near the window with his arms crossed and his expression carved from stone. Sebastian sitting in the chair beside the bed with his elbows on his knees and his head in his hands. Lucian pacing near the door like a caged wolf.

And Victoria standing at the foot of the bed looking exhausted and desperate and older than Lilith had ever seen her.

There was someone else too.

  • The Alpha Kings Sacrificial Mate   Chapter 235: Which God Of Death Is The Safest

    Elena's expression turned grave. "I've been researching that. There are three death gods who might be willing to bargain with you. Moros the god of doom and inevitable fate. Thanatos the god of peaceful death. And Erebus the primordial darkness itself.""Which one is safest?" Victoria asked."None of them are safe," Elena said. "But Thanatos is probably least likely to destroy you outright. He has some concept of mercy. The others..." She shook her head. "Moros will demand everything you have and give you barely enough in return. And Erebus is so ancient and powerful that bargaining with him is basically suicide.""So Thanatos," Victoria said."If you must bargain with anyone, yes," Elena confirmed. "But Victoria....understand that even Thanatos will demand a price. He won't negotiate. He'll state his price and you either pay it or leave." "You said he demanded for ten years of your life, Your ability to cry. And all the memories of your sister's childhood, when you attempted resurre

  • The Alpha Kings Sacrificial Mate   Chapter 234: Preparation For The Ritual

    Victoria POVDay two.The last day before the transformation.Victoria stood in her room surrounded by forbidden texts and components she should not possess and felt the weight of what she was preparing to do settle onto her shoulders like a burial shroud.On the desk: a map marked with Thalia's last known locations. Red circles indicating places her cousin had been spotted. Black X's marking territories where dark magic had been reported.On the floor: three vials of Lilith's blood, drawn yesterday while her niece slept. Fresh. Potent. Carrying Lilith's magical signature in every drop.On the shelf: the dead necklace Elena had given Nicholas. The crystal was dark now but it still held traces of Lilith's essence. Enough to serve as an anchor point if resurrection became necessary.And in her hands: a worn leather journal containing research Victoria had been conducting in secret for the past twenty-four hours.Resurrection rituals. Death magic acquisition. Underworld portal constructi

    "Even if keeping me alive costs you everything?" Lilith asked."Especially then," Nicholas said.Lilith's expression was complicated. "That's what scares me. Not dying. But watching you destroy yourselves trying to save me.""Too bad," Nicholas said. "You don't get a say in that. We're going to save you whether you want us to or not."Lilith laughed....soft and a little broken. "That's very Alpha of you.""I know," Nicholas said. "Sorry.""Don't apologize," Lilith said. "I love that you're stubborn and controlling and absolutely certain you can fix impossible things. Even when you probably can't."Nicholas smiled despite everything. "Is this your way of telling me you love me?""I already told you I love you," Lilith said. "Multiple times. But yes. I love you. I love Nicholas who leads his pack with impossible wisdom. And I love Kael who would tear apart anyone who threatened me. I love both of you."Nicholas felt warmth spread through his chest. "I love you too. Both the Morvaine wit

  • The Alpha Kings Sacrificial Mate   Chapter 232: Are You Scared?

    Nicholas POVNicholas waited until evening to visit Lilith.He had spent the day doing what Alphas did, leading. Organizing. Making decisions that kept the pack functional while his entire world was falling apart.He had met with Callum about the funerals scheduled for tomorrow. Had reviewed the estate repairs with the construction teams. Had coordinated with the remaining Moon Temple Guardians about maintaining what defenses they could without Selene's help.He had done everything an Alpha was supposed to do.And all of it felt hollow.Because in two days, Lilith would attempt something that might kill her. And there was nothing Nicholas could do to stop it or help or protect her from what was coming.He stood outside her door for a full minute before knocking."Come in," Lilith's voice called.Nicholas entered and found her sitting up in bed with a book in her lap that she clearly was not reading. Sebastian and Lucian had both visited earlier, he had felt their presences through the

    But the curse pulsed in her chest like a second heartbeat. Dark and heavy and waiting.The door opened again and Lucian entered.He looked worse than Sebastian. More tense. More volatile. Like he was barely holding himself together.The moment he saw Lilith awake, something in his expression cracked."You're up," Lucian said."I'm up," Lilith confirmed.Lucian crossed to the bed in three long strides and dropped to his knees beside it. He took Lilith's free hand, the one Sebastian was not holding and pressed his forehead against her knuckles."I thought we lost you," Lucian said, his voice muffled. "When you collapsed after the battle. When the necklace failed. I thought..."He stopped and Lilith felt his absolute terror through the bond."I'm still here," Lilith said gently."For now," Lucian said. "But in two days you're going to attempt something that might kill you. And we're all just supposed to sit there and watch and hope it works.""What else can we do?" Lilith asked.Lucian l

    Lilith POVWaking up was harder than it should have been.Lilith opened her eyes to afternoon sunlight streaming through the window and felt like she was trying to drag herself out of quicksand.Everything was heavy. Her limbs. Her head. Even her eyelids felt like they weighed more than they should.But she was awake.Alive.For now.Lilith pushed herself upright slowly...careful, testing her body's limits and immediately felt the bonds flare to life.Not painful. Not overwhelming. Just present in a way they had not been before.She could feel Nicholas somewhere in the estate. Feel his steady presence like a beacon. Feel the careful control he was maintaining over emotions that wanted to spiral.Could feel Sebastian closer. In the hallway maybe. Or just outside the door. His anxiety bleeding through the connection like static.Could feel Lucian pacing somewhere below. Restless energy and barely contained panic making the bond between them pulse erratically.They knew she was awake.Al

    Lilith's POVShe couldn't sleep.This was becoming a pattern.Not the bad kind of sleeplessness....not the three-am-staring-at-bills kind she'd lived with for years in the apartment. This was different. Restless. Her body too warm underneath the blankets, her mind turning over and over without lan

    "Ours," Nicholas said. Simple. Final. "Not a transaction. Not a contract. Ours.""That's not an arrangement. That's a.....""We know what it is," Sebastian said. Something moved in his dark eyes. "We're not pretending otherwise."She looked at her hands. At the towel wrapped around her. At the room

    Inside the bathroom, Lilith locked the door.Then she stood in front of the mirror and didn't move for a long moment.It was a beautiful bathroom. Of course it was...everything in this estate was beautiful, expensive, the kind of space that existed in a different universe than her apartment with it

    She cleared her throat.It felt like swallowing glass."Can I go?" she asked.The words came out barely above a whisper, scraped thin by everything her throat had been through. She kept her eyes on the bed in front of her. Kept her face down....small and still, the way prey learns to be still."Can
