LESSIE

When I woke up, the sheets still smelled like him. That intoxicating mix of smoke, cedarwood, and danger clung to the pillow beside me.

My fingers brushed over the empty space where his body had been, still faintly warm, and a slow smile tugged at my lips as the memories of last night came flooding back — his breath on my neck, the heat of his skin, the way my name had fallen from his lips like a prayer and a curse all at once.

The mark still burned where his teeth had claimed me. A shiver ran through me as I traced it lightly, and before I knew it, a small sound escaped my throat — soft, helpless.

Goddess, what was wrong with me? It was like his touch had awakened something primal inside me that refused to quiet.

I reached lazily for him, expecting to find Dante still asleep beside me, but my hand only met cold sheets.

My eyes fluttered open completely, scanning the dimly lit room. His side of the bed was empty. The air felt heavy, tense… wrong.

“Dante?” My voice came out h

  • The Professor, My Mate   Chapter 84

    PROFESSOR DANTE Nothing could pierce the storm raging inside me. I sat at the head of the long table, the council of elders arrayed like a wall of judgment around me. The eldest among them, a wiry wolf named Malrick, slammed his gnarled hand onto the table, sending papers skittering to the floor. “Alpha Dante,” he barked, voice echoing against the stone walls. “Do you realize the gravity of what you’ve done? Aurelia, our precious Moonborn, is missing! And it is because of you that she now languishes in a realm she has no hope of escaping!”I clenched my fists under the table, feeling the claws dig into my palms. I wanted to rip the walls down, I wanted to tear them all apart, but I held myself together, just barely.“I tried, Malrick! You think I wanted this? You think I wanted Aurelia to be taken?”He laughed, a dry, hollow sound that grated against my nerves. “Tried? Tried? You interfered with the council’s order, Alpha. You chose your judgment over the Pack’s centuries of trad

    LESSIE When I woke up, I thought I was in hell.For a long, suffocating second, I didn’t move, I just lay there, staring into the thick darkness pressing down on me. My head pounded, my heart beat against my ribs like it was trying to claw its way out. I waited for the fire to come, for the heat, for the voice of the devil himself to whisper that it was all over… but none of that happened.The air was cold. Dead. So cold it burned when I breathed.Slowly, I pushed myself up, the ground beneath me crunching like broken glass. My fingers trembled as they brushed over the surface, it wasn’t dirt. It felt like ash… and bone.I looked around.I wasn’t in hell. But I knew, deep down in my bones, that I wasn’t in heaven either.The place was strange. The sky stretched above me, painted in crimson and black streaks that swirled like blood diluted in water. The land was empty and endless, shadows crawling across the surface of the sand like living things.When I moved, my reflection follow

    PROFESSOR DANTE “No!” I roared, my voice ripping through the chamber like a thunderclap. My claws tore through the thick shadows, sparks of silver fire igniting with every swing, but it was useless. But the creature didn’t flinch. It didn’t even acknowledge my existence. My strikes passed through its shadowy form, and I realized with a stomach-turning dread that brute strength alone would never reach it.“Dante!” Kieran shouted beside me, his claws glowing with desperate, almost feral energy. He hurled himself at the figure like a missile, teeth bared, and yet… the Sovereign swatted him aside as if he were nothing more than a ragdoll. Kieran hit the wall behind him, coughing up blood, and I felt the scream of his rage tear through my soul.Then Ethan’s voice cut through the chaos, raw with terror and grief. “Stop! Take me instead! I’ll give myself to you!”I swiveled to him, disbelief written all over my face. “This is not time for this nonsense body, get up!”But he didn’t wait

    PROFESSOR DANTE I pulled her closer, teeth bared, claws scraping the stone beneath us. “Stay behind me,” I growled, my voice trembling with both rage and fear. “Who’s here? Show yourself!”The shadows didn’t answer. Instead, they shifted, coalescing, pulling together like smoke drawn to a single will. The temperature dropped so suddenly that I could see my breath curling in the icy air. Then it appeared—massive, towering, horned, faceless, draped in a darkness so thick it seemed to swallow the light around it. My wolf growled deep inside me, clawing at the edges of my sanity.Ethan froze. His body stiffened, his face paling. He whispered, voice trembling like dry leaves in a storm: “No… no. This is the Night Sovereign. The entity my coven serves.”“What the hell does that mean?!” I snapped, spinning toward him, but my eyes never left the colossal figure that had taken form before us. “Explain now, Ethan! Now!”Ethan shook his head violently. “Dante, I don't think we can fight this.

    PROFESSOR DANTE“Ethan!” I shouted, gripping his shoulders hard enough that my fingers dug into bone. “Stop the chant! Ethan, stop!”He didn’t even blink. His eyes were glassy, his lips moving too fast for any human tongue. The words that came out weren’t natural, they slid through the air like poison, thick and ancient, older than any spellbook. The sound made my skin crawl.“Ethan!” I shook him again, harder this time, but it was useless. His body was there, but he wasn’t. His soul was trapped somewhere inside that chant.The grimoire in his lap pulsed, black light leaking out from its pages, tendrils of darkness crawling across the floor like veins of ink. They slithered toward Lessie’s body, wrapping around her wrists, her throat, her chest—each pulse synchronizing with her faint heartbeat.I could feel the magic’s weight pressing against me, choking me. It was like the air itself had turned to smoke.“Ethan!” I roared again, but he didn’t hear me.And then the creature took a s

  • The Professor, My Mate   Chapter 79

    PROFESSOR DANTE The sound that ripped out of my chest wasn’t human as I yelled her name.“LESSIE!”The explosion swallowed her whole before I could even reach her. One second she was there and the next, she was gone. A blinding flash of silver and black ripped through the chamber, throwing me backward. My ears rang, my lungs burned, and the ground beneath me cracked open as though the world itself mourned her.“Lessie!” I screamed again, my voice raw, tearing out of me like my soul was leaving my body.Smoke clouded everything. I couldn’t see. I couldn’t breathe. All I could hear was the echo of her scream, the last sound before the explosion took her. My hands clawed at the dirt, desperate, trembling, bleeding as I dug through rubble and debris, calling her name over and over until it became a broken whisper.“Come on, please, come on…” I muttered. My heart felt like it was tearing apart. My wolf howled inside me, thrashing, begging to get out, to find her, to fix this.Behind me,
