Cassidy is coming out of the security office when I find her, tablet in one hand and a radio in the other, already talking to someone through it about the Silas alert protocols before she even sees me.

"Dante," I say.

She holds up one finger, finishes her radio exchange, then looks at me. "Went to his room about forty minutes ago. I was coming up the stairwell when he passed me." She pauses. "He didn't say anything. Just walked past like I wasn't there, which Dante

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 168: The Return of the Prodigal

    (Dante POV)The wind on the observation deck had turned from a howling beast to a soft, grieving whisper. I stood at the edge, looking at the two women who had bled and fought alongside us through the longest night of our lives. Sage was still trembling, her eyes fixed on the horizon as if she could already see the quiet life she was dreaming of. Juniper looked smaller than I had ever seen her, the weight of the Ironclaw legacy sitting heavy on her slumped shoulders."Sage. Juniper." My voice was a dry rasp, but it carried in the still morning air.They both looked at me."You heard what I told Kira," I said, my chest tight. "The same goes for you. If you want to walk away from this, if you want to leave the Spire and the Depths behind and never look back, you can. I’ll make sure the records reflect that you died in the explosion at the Civic Hall. You can be ghos

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 167: The Weight of the Dawn

    (Kira POV)The sun didn’t rise with a celebratory flare; it crept over the edge of Callahan City like a bruised secret. The light was a pale, watery gold that washed over the carnage of the observation deck, turning the shattered glass and cooling blood into a mosaic of failures.We sat in a ragged semi-circle, the silence so thick it felt like another presence on the roof. Dante sat closest to the edge, his silhouette sharp against the morning sky. He looked at the bodies, at Silas, whose twisted ambition had almost rewritten the stars, and at Cassidy, whose sacrifice had been the final, bitter anchor for our survival.Dante reached out, his fingers tracing a jagged line in the frost on the concrete. "I spent my whole life looking up to them," he said, his voice a low, hollow rasp. "Silas taught me how to read the city’s Ley lines. Cassidy taught me how to throw my first punch.

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 166: The Cost of a Mother’s Sin

    (Kira POV)The silence that followed Silas’s passing was heavier than the noise of the battle had ever been. The wind had died down to a melancholy whistle, weaving through the jagged rebar of the Spire like a funeral dirge. I stayed on my knees, my hands stained with a mixture of my own blood and the gray ash of Silas’s remains.Dante stood up slowly. His movements were languid, his body still recovering from the violent influx of essence I had forced back into him. He didn't look at me. His gaze was fixed on a point near the service lift.I followed his line of sight. Alpha Lyra lay sprawled against the metal doors, her neck bent at an unnatural angle. The white light of the ritual’s collapse had been unforgiving. Dante walked toward her, his boots clicking softly on the concrete. He reached down and lifted her hand. He held it for a heartbeat, his expression unreadable,

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 165: The Price of a Legacy

    (Kira POV)The silence that followed the explosion of light was a heavy, viscid thing. It pressed against my eardrums, punctuated only by the whistle of the wind through the Spire’s steel skeleton. Underneath my palms, Dante’s heart hammered a steady, rhythmic beat—a miracle of blood and bone that I had clawed back from the brink of the void.I tried to push myself up, but my muscles felt like they had been replaced by wet sand. My internal well was dry; the constant, gnawing hunger of the Blood Heir had vanished, leaving behind an effete hollow that made my head spin.Across the shattered concrete, a sound broke the stillness. It wasn't a sob or a groan. It was a wet, hacking laugh.Silas was dragging himself upright against a girder. His pristine wool coat was shredded, his face a mask of soot and cooling blood. But it was his eyes that stopped my br

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 164: The Reversal

    (Kira POV)"Cassidy, now!" I screamed, my voice barely audible over the gale.Cassidy didn't hesitate. She abandoned her cover, her movements a blur of tactical precision as she charged Silas. She didn't use her gun, it was useless against the kinetic shield, instead, she drew a pair of short, silver-weighted batons. She slid across the frost-slicked concrete, coming up under Silas’s reach and swinging with a ferocity that made the air whistle.Silas snarled, forced to divert his attention from the ritual to parry her blows. "You’re a flea biting a titan, Cassidy!" he roared, lashing out with a burst of kinetic force that sent a nearby industrial crate flying toward her head.She ducked, the crate shattering against a steel beam behind her, and kept swinging. She wasn't fighting to win; she was fighting to buy me seconds."Sage! The sout

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 163: The Blood Heir’s Choice

    (Kira POV)The door to the observation deck didn't just open; I kicked it off its hinges. The metal screeched, buckling under the force of my wolf’s desperation as I burst onto the roof. The wind up here was a physical entity, a screaming gale that whipped my hair across my face and carried the mephitic stench of ancient, rotting magic.I didn't look at the city lights. I didn't look at the sky. My eyes locked onto the center of the deck.Dante was splayed across a stone plinth that shouldn't have been there, an altar of dark, vein-streaked marble that seemed to have grown out of the concrete like a malignant tumor. He was shirtless, his chest heaving, his skin a deathly, pallid grey. Thin, glowing violet lines were crawling up his arms, tracing his veins like luminous parasites. They were draining him. I could feel it through the bond, a rhythmic, agonizing pulse of suction that felt

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 91: Before the Storm (Kira POV)

    She walks toward us.Cassidy steps aside without comment and continues down the corridor, and Selene stops in the doorway where Cassidy just stood, and she looks at Dante with an expression that contains several things simultaneously, none of them the anger or the humiliation

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 88: The Route (Kira POV)

    I wake to the specific grey of very early morning and Dante already at the window.He's standing with his back to the room, shirtless, the compound's pre-dawn exterior visible behind him, and the quality of his stillness tells me he hasn't just arrived there. He's been there

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 85: Inside (Kira POV)

    Sage takes us to the meditation chamber on the archive level.I didn't know it existed until she opens the door and the room presents itself, small and deliberately austere, no windows, walls lined with sound-dampening material, two low seats and a third positioned slightly a

  • Mated To My Captor   Chapter 84: The Locked Door (Kira POV)

    The minute he asked for passes.Then another.I sit on the edge of his bed and I watch him look at the closed door and I don't say anything, because pushing right now would be the wrong kind of presence and I know the difference. Some things require company rather than
