Aria's POV

The Void King materialized in my private chambers at three in the morning, Human-Luna sleeping peacefully against his chest in a carrier made of solidified darkness.

"Before you attack," he said calmly, "look at her."

I did. My daughter's human aspect was glowing – not with power, but with pure contentment. Her tiny hand clutched one of his void-touched fingers, and where they connected, small flowers of light bloomed in the darkness.

"She's teaching me," he said, wonder creeping into his ageless voice. "This powerless infant is showing me possibilities I'd forgotten existed."

"Return her."

"I will. After you understand what's coming." He gestured, and reality folded into his throne room between spaces. "Sit, Aria Rivera. Let me tell you about the thing Celeste wants to free."

I sat, though every instinct screamed to snatch my daughter and run. Through the mate bonds, I felt Dimitri and Kieran's alarm, but kept them at bay.

  • The Lycan's Contract Bride    Chapter Sixty one

    Aria's POV The bonding chamber was a sphere of pure possibility—walls that existed in every state simultaneously, floor that was both solid and void. Sarah had helped us construct it across all timelines, ensuring no matter what happened, some version would succeed.Kieran stood at the center, void energy already seeping from his form like inverse light. Three days of preparation had transformed him—not physically but essentially. He was learning to think like entropy, to understand destruction as art rather than violence."Remember," Scholar-Luna instructed from outside the sphere, "entropy isn't evil. It's just... thorough. It seeks equilibrium, balance, the state of least resistance.""And I need to give it purpose beyond that," Kieran said. "Direction. Choice."Marcus materialized beside me—not to interfere but to observe. "He'll be consumed. Entropy doesn't share—it spreads.""Then we'll teach it to share." I activated the chain, feeling its infinite perspectives flow through me

    Aria's POV Luna's seven aspects materialized in the council chamber simultaneously, but this time they arranged themselves in a circle rather than merging. Each one radiated distinct energy—Child, Scholar, Feral, Queen, Time-Loop, Void-Touched, and Divine—yet they moved in perfect synchronization."We've been thinking separately but concluding together," Scholar-Luna began, her crystalline form refracting light into equations."Adults always complicate things," Child-Luna added, swinging her legs from her chair. "You see entropy as enemy because it ends things. But endings aren't evil—they're just part of the pattern.""Consider nature," Feral-Luna growled softly. "Predator and prey. Growth and decay. Neither is wrong—both are necessary."I leaned forward, the chain showing me where their logic led. "You're suggesting we stop fighting entropy entirely?""We're suggesting you stop seeing it as separate," Queen-Luna stated with royal authority. "In trying to preserve everything forever

  • The Lycan's Contract Bride    Chapter Fifty-nine

    Aria's POV David arrived in flames that didn't burn—phoenix fire that transformed rather than destroyed. His human form was now just a suggestion, a memory of shape within an inferno of rebirth."I've been thinking," he said, his voice carrying the crackle of stars being born. "About cycles. About endings that become beginnings."We'd gathered in the transformed garden, all seven of my alternates present, both mates, Marina, Sarah flickering through timelines, and now David in his transcendent form."Let me guess," Dead-Timeline-Aria said dryly. "You have a solution that involves burning everything down.""Not burning. Renewing." David's flames pulsed with conviction. "The phoenix doesn't just survive death—it controls it. Chooses when to end and begin. What if we did the same with the universe?""Explain," I said, though the chain was already showing me possibilities I didn't like."We trigger universal rebirth intentionally. Before the Devourer can escape. Before entropy wins." His

    Aria's POV Marcus returned within the hour, but this time he came to talk. He sat across from me in the garden—the same garden where we'd shared tea lifetimes ago, when we both still pretended to be simply human."You want to understand," he said, not a question."I want to know why someone chooses to become entropy's avatar. You had to choose, didn't you? Entropy couldn't force consciousness."He smiled, genuinely this time. "You're right. It was a choice. The most deliberate choice I ever made.""Tell me."Marcus gazed at flowers that would inevitably wilt, trees that would eventually fall. "I was a physicist before—in my first life. I studied thermodynamics, watched energy spread and dissipate, measured the slow death of stars. Do you know what I learned?""That everything ends?""That everything suffers before it ends." His form flickered, showing glimpses of the entropy beneath. "I calculated it once—the total amount of suffering that would exist between now and heat death. Ever

  • The Lycan's Contract Bride    Chapter Fifty-seven

    Aria's POV Sarah materialized again, but this time she brought the web with her—visible threads of causality spreading across the training ground like a spider's creation made of light and possibility."Look," she said, her voice resonating from multiple temporal positions. "Every decision, every choice, creates a branch."The threads split and multiplied before our eyes, each one representing a different timeline. But then I noticed something disturbing—many of the threads ended abruptly, cut short or withering into nothing."Dead timelines," I whispered, recognizing them through the chain's sight."Failed timelines," Sarah corrected. "Futures where we lost. Where the Devourer won. Where reality collapsed. I've been—" She paused, shame coloring her features. "I've been pruning them. Cutting off branches before they can become real."Marina stepped forward, her expression sharp. "You've been playing god with causality?""I've been gardening," Sarah defended. "Ensuring at least one ti

  • The Lycan's Contract Bride    Chapter Fifty-six

    Aria's POV Sarah stood at the center of the convergence circle, her form flickering between states like a television changing channels. One moment solid, the next transparent, occasionally splitting into multiple versions before snapping back together."It's accelerating," she said, her voice carrying harmonics from different realms. "The bridge power—it's not just growing. It's evolving into something else."I watched through the chain's infinite sight, seeing possibilities cascade around her. In half of them, she transcended. In half, she fragmented beyond recovery."Talk to us," Dimitri urged, his earthwise senses tracking her shifting energy. "What are you feeling?""Everything. Everywhere." Sarah laughed, the sound echoing from places that didn't exist. "I'm standing here, but I'm also in the Void, the divine realm, the shadow lands, the echo dimensions, the spaces between thoughts.""You're dispersing," Marina warned. "Spreading yourself too thin across realities.""No." Sarah'
