Remi POV

“Actually… I wanted to apologize about what happened last time,” she said quietly. “We took things too far, but I swear I didn’t want to get involved.”

I said nothing, just stared at her, trying to find a crack in her expression. But she kept her eyes on the ground.

“Ember is very controlling. She forced us… even though most of us were against it,” she added.

That was obviously no lie, but still—I wasn’t going to trust her.

“I know you don’t believe me. I don’t expect you to. But I really am sorry. And to make it up to you…” she rushed over to the corner, pulled out a small box, then stretched it toward me. “Here,” she said.

“What’s this?” I asked, eyeing it without taking it.

“A gift,” she said simply. “I heard you can’t step out of the mansion premises, so I got you this while I was out. It’s nothing, really. Please accept it.” Her eyes were wide, giving me the most innocent, pleading look.

What’s the worst that could happen? I thought, reaching out and taking the box.

    Remi PoVI froze as her lips crashed into mine, nibbling softly on my bottom lip. It would’ve been easy to push her away, but it happened so fast and out of nowhere that my brain was having a hard time keeping up.“Wow,” she whispered against my lips. “You taste really good. I can see why everyone’s obsessed with you.”That was supposed to be a compliment, but I didn’t take it as one.For some odd reason, my heart was racing. And just as she was about to pull back, I don’t know what came over me—but I suddenly held her in place and pulled her in for another kiss.She froze for a second, clearly not expecting me to kiss her back. But then she melted into it, even deepening the kiss. Her lips were soft and tasted sweet.I didn’t know why I did it. Maybe because, for a second, I hated the idea of being used again and just wanted to take back control. Or maybe… maybe it was because I could sense the deep sadness behind her eyes, and this was the only way I knew how to offer comfort.Whate

    Remi POVHer question completely caught me off guard. I paused in my tracks.“Wh… what do you mean?” I asked, my voice quieter than I intended.Vivian stopped too. Her eyes moved over me from head to toe, like she was trying to figure something out. But why?“It’s just…” she began, sounding a bit unsure. “I’ve noticed that Luna Selene is… nice to you. Not that she’s completely evil or anything, but she never really pays attention to the other courtesans. And…”She hesitated.“…I’ve seen her leaving your room. At night.”My stomach clenched, and my fingers twisted at my sides.How was I supposed to respond to that?I thought they all knew — or at least had some idea — of what went on behind these closed doors. But even if they didn’t, how could I say it out loud?Oh, your Luna comes to my room every night because she’s an obsessed psycho who forces me into sex.Yeah. That’s not something you just say.Not even when it’s the truth.I sucked in my breath and looked away, pretending to fo

    Remi POV“Silver kills werewolves?” I muttered, watching as the guards dragged Elias’s lifeless body across the floor, leaving a thick trail of blood behind.My hand was still trembling, remembering what I had just done.“Mhm,” Damon hummed lazily, then reached out and gently patted my hair. “You did good,” he said with that same wicked smile that sent a shiver down my spine.My gaze shifted, landing on Zanye. Then my hand dropped to his. That silver ring.Doesn’t that mean he isn’t a werewolf? I thought, staring a second longer, watching the way the silver caught the light on his finger.Why the hell would a werewolf wear silver?Before I could spiral further, Damon’s fingers curled gently under my chin, tilting my face toward him.“You’re thinking too much,” he said. “I just told you to return to your room.”I blinked up at him, my thoughts still caught somewhere between Elias’s blood and that damn silver ring, but I nodded anyway.He let go of my chin, and without wasting another s

    Remi’s POVAfter the party was over and most of the guests had gone back inside, I stayed curled up on the cold floor.When Nikolai stepped forward to help me up, Damon waved his hand dismissively.“She can walk back on her own..”Even though my body ached all over, I took a deep breath and forced myself up, wincing in pain as I slid into the black dress.I glanced back at him as he casually fixed his pants.Disgust twisted in my gut. I cursed under my breath and turned away, walking back toward the mansion, ignoring the stares from the staff lining the hallway.Just as I was rounding the corner, a rough hand grabbed mine and yanked me aside.I gasped, stumbling back, and my back hit the wall hard. Before I could react, my eyes widened seeing it was one of the council members—the same one with silver hair.His eyes burned with lust as he stepped closer, unbuckling his pants like he’d done this a thousand times before.“Give me a quick head,” he said.I blinked, still trying to process

    Remi POVI could only stare down at my feet as I was led out of the mansion. The sound of loud music and cheers filled the air, deep laughter mixing in like smoke.My steps became heavy, hesitant. Every movement felt forced. My breathing was shaky, like my own body was resisting what was about to happen.“There she is,” Damon’s voice rang out.The moment he spoke, the crowd quieted, their excitement sinking into a low hum of murmurs.Then I felt his cold hand wrap around my waist, pulling me tightly against him.“We all know there are a lot of restrictions that prevent us from entering the human world,” he began, like he was delivering a speech. Since my face was still covered with a veil, I kept my head down.“For peace, we’ve been trying to blend in with the humans,” Damon continued in a commanding tone. “But what happens… when a human enters our territory?”There was a long pause.Then a deep voice broke through the silence. “Wait—don’t tell me that’s a human?”“Can’t you smell it?
