The silver blade in my back felt like ice and fire combined. I could hear the metal scraping against my ribs as Sasha twisted the hilt. My legs gave out, and I hit the dirt with a heavy thud.
"Finally," Sasha whispered, leaning over me. Her face was smeared with soot and tears. "The maid is back where she belongs. In the mud."

The Eclipse Vow The Red Awakening
LyraThe white marble floor felt like ice against my knees. I looked at Leo, my own flesh and blood, and saw nothing but a stranger. The Council had twisted his mind. They had turned my baby brother into my judge."Leo, please!" I cried, my voice echoing off the high ceiling. "They are using you! They told you lies!"Leo didn't even flinch. He stood tall in his gold-trimmed robes, looking down at me with eyes that were cold and empty. "The only lie was the one you told me, Lyra. You said you’d protect me. Then you sold my soul to a monster in the Deadlands just to save your own skin.""I did it to save us both!" I screamed."Take her away," Leo said, turning his back on me.
The Eclipse Vow The Council’s Sentence
LyraThe searchlights from the helicopters blinded me. The wind from their blades whipped the white grass into a frenzy. Zade was gone pulled into the abyss with his traitorous grandfather and I was left standing in the ruins of the Ancient Grove. My heart felt like a hollow shell, cracked and empty."Zade..." I whispered, my fingers digging into the dirt where he had vanished."Target sighted! Do not fire! The Council wants her alive!" a voice boomed from a loudspeaker above.Ropes dropped from the sky. Men in black tactical gear slid down, their boots hitting the sacred ground with heavy thuds. These weren't just Enforcers. These were the High Council’s private guard. They carried silver-net launchers and batons that hummed with blue electricity.
The Eclipse Vow The Twin Keys
LyraLeo was dangling in the air, his feet kicking uselessly against the First Alpha’s massive bone-armor. The monster’s throat glowed with a sick, red fire. He was inhaling, and I could see the golden light of Leo’s soul being pulled out of his mouth in thin, wispy threads."Leo!" I screamed. I tried to run, but the ground was shaking so hard I fell to my knees."Lyra, the throne!" Zade yelled. He pointed at the glowing silver locket sitting in the rubble. "If he finishes that meal, the lock is gone forever! He will walk out of here and turn the world into a graveyard!"I looked at my brother. His eyes were rolling back in his head. He was dying. Then I looked at the silver locket. It was thirty feet away, guarded by the First Alpha’s lashing tai
The Eclipse Vow The Shadow’s Betrayal
LyraZade didn’t blink. His eyes, once full of warmth and protective fire, were now two flat, gray stones. He lunged at me with a speed that blurred the air. I barely had time to roll to the side before his claws shredded the tree trunk where my head had been a second ago."Zade, stop! It’s me!" I screamed, my voice cracking.He didn't hear me. He spun around, his shadows rising up like giant, jagged blades. The man in the suit Zade’s grandfather, Marcus stood by the archway, playing that haunting flute. The music felt like needles crawling under my skin."It’s no use, Lyra," Marcus said, pulling the flute away for a moment to sneer. "The Valerius bloodline was built on obedience. I am the True Alpha of the Shadow Legion. He is just my puppet."
The Eclipse Vow The Master’s Call
LyraThe ground screamed. It wasn't just dirt moving; it was the earth itself turning into a mouth of teeth and bone. The giant, skeletal hand squeezed Zade and Leo so hard I heard Zade’s ribs groan."Zade! Leo!" I lunged, my fingers brushing the cold, dead skin of the monster’s wrist.Sasha stood ten feet away, her feet floating an inch off the ground. She wasn't the girl who had spilled wine on my shoes anymore. She was a nightmare. Her skin was the color of a wet stone, and green smoke leaked from her eyes."Don't bother, Lyra," Sasha hissed. Her voice sounded like two people talking at once—one high and angry, the other deep and hungry. "They belong to the Master now. You took my Alpha, so I’m taking your King. And your little brother? He&rsqu
The Eclipse Vow The Deepest Betrayal
LyraThe world turned into a roar of fire and water. When Alpha Miller pressed that button, the sea-mine beneath the Iron Rose didn't just explode it tore the ship in half.Wood splintered like dry glass. The deck tilted so sharply that the guards who weren't killed by the blast slid into the burning ocean. I grabbed a brass railing, my fingers slipping."Zade! Leo!" I screamed over the sound of the sinking ship.Zade was a few yards away, his shadow-claws dug deep into the deck planks. He had his other arm wrapped around Leo, who was still half-conscious. Zade’s eyes were wild, searching for a way out, but the fire was closing in from all sides."Jump, Lyra!" Zade roared. "The fuel tanks are going to blow!"
The Eclipse Vow The Eclipse Rises
LyraThe world stopped. The music, the whispers, the clinking of glasses all died the moment Zade hit the floor.The silver bolt was buried deep in his chest, right where his heart should be. Black smoke hissed from the wound. Zade’s eyes, usually so bright and dangerous, were turning a dull, flat
The Eclipse Vow The Public Debut
LyraThe shadows wrapped around my throat like cold, iron fingers. I couldn't breathe. My feet left the floor as the man who looked like a nightmare version of Zade lifted me into the air with a flick of his wrist."Father, stop!" Zade’s voice was a roar. He lunged forward, but the older man simply
The Eclipse Vow The Bodyguard Clause
LyraThe creature was a blur of black fur and teeth. I didn’t have time to think. I didn't have time to be the "Ghost Maid" who hid in the shadows.As his claws swung toward my throat, I threw the heavy glass vase with everything I had. It shattered against his head, but he didn't even flinch. He p
The Eclipse Vow The Obsidian Bargain
LyraThe three red-eyed wolves lunged at once. They weren't just hungry; they were rabid. I squeezed my eyes shut, waiting for the feel of teeth on my throat.But the attack never came.Instead, a sound like a whip cracking filled the air. I opened my eyes to see a wall of solid shadows standing be
