Seraphina’s POV

The drive north was gruesome, a relentless stretch of asphalt that seemed to drag on for a lifetime. Lucien had insisted that we travel by car, his voice leaving no room for argument. He claimed it was the only way to avoid suspicion, to stay beneath the radar. A part of me felt like he was hiding something—another secret tucked away in the dark corners of his mind—but I tried to push the suspicion down. He was doing this for my own good. He had to be, right?

    Lucien’s POV I watched Seraphina storm off to her room. I was pissed off at her attitude towards Madame Vivienne and Talia. I stood in the hallway for a moment, listening to the heavy thud of her door closing upstairs. It felt like another barrier being slammed between us, just one more wall in a house already full of them. I didn't understand why she was attacking the only people who could actually help her. 'What's her problem?' I thought. I felt the heat of irritation rising in my chest, a sharp contrast to the cold morning air of the chateau. 'You are gonna ask that question, Lucien?' Kael said in a sarcastic tone. His voice was a low rumble in the back of my mind, dripping with a judgment I didn't have the patience for right now. I ignored him, she was acting up again, pushing me away. Just when I thought everything was going smoothly between us. I thought the drive to Calais had brought us closer, that the shared danger would make h

    Seraphina’s POV I was exploring the home, and I saw pictures of different people. They were lined up along the dark wood of the hallway, their eyes following me as I moved. A lot of them look paler than normal. Probably people who lived here long ago. The air in this part of the house felt heavy, like the walls were holding onto the breath of everyone who had ever been tucked away here. The frames were heavy gold and silver, but the faces inside them looked like ghosts waiting for something to happen. I ran my fingers along the dusty edges, feeling the coldness of the stone floor through my thin socks. "What a pretty little cage he brought you too," she whispered. Her voice was like a cold breeze in my ear, mocking me. "It would be so much easy to kill him and everyone here now that we were alone." I squeezed my eyes shut, trying to block her out. I could feel her pacing in my mind, her hunger for blood vibrating through my own skin. She liked the isola

    Hannah’s POV "So this is it, huh?" Hannah said to the person. She was sitted in front of her, her eyes locked on the file in her hand as she flipped through it. The paper felt crisp under her fingers, filled with the kind of secrets that could burn a kingdom down. She looked at the photos, the medical reports, and the history that Seraphina had tried so hard to keep buried. "Yes, it is. Everything you need is in there," Tyler said with a sly grin. He was leaning back in his chair, his hands rubbing together in anticipation. He looked like a man who had finally found the winning lottery ticket and was just waiting to cash it in. The room was dim, the only light coming from a flickering lamp on the desk, making the shadows on his face look even more twisted. "Now, how would we deal with them?" Thomas said. He was pacing the small room, his footsteps heavy on the floorboards. He looked nervous, but the hunger for revenge was clear in his eye

    Seraphina’s POV The drive north was gruesome, a relentless stretch of asphalt that seemed to drag on for a lifetime. Lucien had insisted that we travel by car, his voice leaving no room for argument. He claimed it was the only way to avoid suspicion, to stay beneath the radar. A part of me felt like he was hiding something—another secret tucked away in the dark corners of his mind—but I tried to push the suspicion down. He was doing this for my own good. He had to be, right? Still, the atmosphere in the cramped SUV was suffocating. For hours, the only sound was the low hum of the engine and the occasional, mutterings from the driver’s seat. Lucien was a man possessed, his knuckles white against the steering wheel as he whispered obscenities to himself in French. His phone was a permanent fixture in his hand, and every few miles, he would hiss into the receiver, his tone clipped and lethal as he coordinated with Alec or someone else in his network.

    The walk to her room felt like a descent into a fever dream. Every second that had passed while she was unconscious was a needle under my skin, but now that she was awake, the fear had shifted into something else. I shoved the double doors open, the wood thudding against the bumpers with a violent crash that made the young doctor jump. She was sitting up in the bed, looking smaller than I remembered against the mountain of white pillows. She looked fragile, her skin like porcelain against the harsh, bleached linens, and the light in her eyes flickered with something haunting. Yet, she was still my Seraphina —the woman who had turned my world upside-down. I didn't waste a single moment. I crossed the room in three strides, my shadow falling over her before I pulled her into my arms, hauling her against my chest as if I could physically shield her from the secrets I was carrying. Her sweet, floral scent—mixed with the tang of the antiseptic—filled my sens

    The headache was a rhythmic thumping behind my eyes, a physical manifestation of the stress Alec had been pouring into me for the last hour. I paced the length of my study, the floorboards creaking under the weight of a man who felt the world tilting on its axis. The familiar scents of the room—old parchment, expensive leather, and the lingering ozone of a storm—did nothing to calm the wolf clawing at my insides. Every step I took felt like I was walking on glass, the fragile peace I had built around Sephina shattered by the secrets Alec had unearthed. "The Blackwood family helped sign off on the death sentencing of Adrian Valentine and his son in order for no punishment to be administered against Sarah Blackwood," Alec had said earlier, his voice as cold and clinical as a surgeon's blade slicing through flesh. "They were always obsessed with the preservation of their lineage," I growled to the shadows, the words tasting like ash and bile. I spat the se

    True to Monsieur Aurelien’s conditions, I had been stuck in my room for the past five days. The only people I saw were the maids when they dropped off my meals, or Alec when he showed up to deliver whatever "gift" Aurelien had sent to keep me quiet. From what I could piece togethe

    I said my goodbye to Finlay, but my heart wasn't in it. I felt a heavy weight in my chest as I turned away from the wildflowers and the only bit of sunlight I’d seen in days. I marched back toward the estate, back to my decorated prison cell, with Alec trailing behind me like a sh

    The nightmare I had only a few hours ago still replayed in my mind with a vivid, terrifying clarity that made my pulse thrum against my skin. I could still feel the phantom heat of the inferno licking at my limbs, and the voice of that ‘thing’ in my head continued to echo, mocking me. It felt far to

  • The Lycan King's Forbidden Human Mate   Chapter 25

    I sat on the edge of the expensive bed in my new room, clutching my phone like a lifeline. The West Wing was quiet too quiet. It was the kind of silence that made you hear things that weren't there, like the ghost of Lucien’s voice or that weird, hateful growl I’d heard in my head earli
