Blood spread slowly across the young woman’s white dress until the bright crimson stain consumed nearly half the fabric. Her smile disappeared, replaced by an expression of quiet surprise rather than pain. She looked down at the wound for a brief moment before lifting her eyes to the young king standing before her.

The Lucien inside the memory reached toward her instinctively, but she caught his hand before he could touch the wound. Even as her strength faded, she managed to smile at him with h

  • The Vampire King Married Death   Chapter 50: The Last Gift of the Cathedral

    The ancient guardian remained silent after revealing that Nyx’s forgotten name was tied to the promise that had made her the Keeper of Death. No one pressed him for another answer. The look in his eyes made it clear that he had already said more than he believed he should. Even the old man beside him lowered his head, knowing that the trial had reached its natural end.A low rumble rolled beneath the cathedral, interrupting the heavy silence. This tremor was different from the ones they had felt before. The water covering the floor began flowing rapidly toward the eastern wall, while fine cracks spread across several towering pillars. Dust drifted from the ceiling, and distant echoes reverberated through the endless halls as though the entire structure had begun protesting against the passage of time.The old man looked around with growing concern. “The cathedral is becoming unstable,” he said. “The Hollow God’s influence has reached this place sooner than I feared. We no longer have

  • The Vampire King Married Death   Chapter 49: The Name That Must Remain Hidden

    The silence that followed the guardian’s words settled over the cathedral like a heavy shroud. No one dared speak, not because they lacked questions, but because each of them understood that they had just come dangerously close to uncovering something that had been deliberately concealed for ages. The shattered fragments of the Mirror of Souls slowly dissolved into silver mist before sinking back into the water beneath their feet.Nyx remained where she stood, her silver eyes fixed on the empty space where the vision had disappeared. The memory had felt more real than anything she could remember from her endless existence. She could still hear the little girl’s laughter, still see the woman who had embraced her with such effortless love, and still feel the painful emptiness left behind when the memory was torn away. The certainty she had carried throughout eternity was beginning to crumble, replaced by questions that frightened even the immortal guardian of death.“You took it from me

  • The Vampire King Married Death   Chapter 48: Before Death Had a Name

    The field of white flowers stretched endlessly beneath a sky unlike any the company had ever seen. There was no sun, no moon, and no stars, yet the landscape was bathed in a gentle silver light that seemed to come from the flowers themselves. A soft breeze swept across the field, carrying thousands of glowing petals into the air until they resembled drifting snow.The little girl wandered through the blossoms without fear, occasionally stopping to admire a flower before continuing her quiet journey. She hummed a melody so faint that it barely reached beyond the surface of the Mirror of Souls. There was an innocence in her movements that felt painfully out of place for someone who looked exactly like Nyx.Even Captain Roderic, who rarely understood the strange magic surrounding Nyx, found himself unable to look away. The child carried none of the solemn grace that defined the Queen of Death. She smiled freely, skipped across the field, and reached toward butterflies made entirely of si

    Blood spread slowly across the young woman’s white dress until the bright crimson stain consumed nearly half the fabric. Her smile disappeared, replaced by an expression of quiet surprise rather than pain. She looked down at the wound for a brief moment before lifting her eyes to the young king standing before her.The Lucien inside the memory reached toward her instinctively, but she caught his hand before he could touch the wound. Even as her strength faded, she managed to smile at him with heartbreaking tenderness.“You promised,” she whispered.The memory-Lucien shook his head desperately.“No. Stay with me. The healers are coming.”She gently brushed her fingers against his cheek.“You’ve always been a terrible liar.”The scene struck the present Lucien with the force of a physical blow.His breathing became uneven as memories he had locked away centuries ago returned with painful clarity. He had buried them so deeply that even he had begun believing they no longer existed.Nyx w

  • The Vampire King Married Death   Chapter 46: The Trial of the Worthy

    The deafening sound of stone grinding against stone echoed throughout the cathedral as the last entrance sealed itself shut. Ancient runes spread across every wall and pillar, bathing the enormous chamber in a golden light that pushed back the darkness. The air itself seemed to change, growing heavier with a power so old that even Nyx struggled to recognize it.Captain Roderic rushed toward the nearest entrance, but the moment he struck the sealed doorway with the pommel of his sword, a surge of golden energy threw him backward. Two royal guards caught him before he fell into the flooded floor, and he looked at the glowing barrier with open disbelief. He had broken through fortress gates and enchanted walls during countless campaigns, yet this barrier had not even trembled beneath his strength.Lucien helped steady his captain before turning toward the giant guardian. The warrior remained perfectly still, holding the massive spear upright as though it had become part of the cathedral

    The enormous claw scraped slowly across the ancient stone, leaving deep grooves that glowed with black energy. Another violent impact followed, shaking the entire cathedral until dust and fragments of rock rained from the ceiling. The floodwater covering the floor rippled wildly as the ancient walls groaned beneath the force of whatever was trying to break through.Captain Roderic immediately stepped in front of Master Orion while the royal guards formed a defensive line around Lucien and Nyx. Every sword was drawn, and the tension in the chamber became almost suffocating. The creature behind the door had not yet revealed itself, yet its presence alone was enough to make even veteran warriors instinctively prepare for death.Lucien raised the Sword of Night, and silver flames climbed along its blade until they illuminated the entire chamber. “Can that door hold?” he asked without taking his eyes off the widening crack.The old man did not answer immediately. His weathered face remaine
