last update Last Updated: 2025-12-20 00:08:35

The citadel shattered in a cascade of crystalline shards, the Veil's eternal night sky ripping open like torn fabric, revealing glimpses of the mortal realm below—Lockwood forests ablaze, Silver Pack lands cracked with fissures, the entity’s influence spreading like a plague. Alina's manifested form towered over the chaos, her ethereal fur glowing with integrated light and shadow, fangs bared in a snarl that shook the collapsing spires. The entity's colossal maw loomed, its breath a foul wind of decay, but Alina met it head-on, her claws raking across its void-hide, drawing ichor that sizzled against the air.

Autumn hung suspended in the ritual's vortex, essences swirling around her—Elias's silver, Elara's moonlight, Gale's gold, the guardians' amber—all threading into her core, weaving the hive's shadow into harmony. The pain was exquisite, a burning fusion that made her scream, Alina's manifestation drawing from her strength, the bond with Gale the only anchor keeping her sane. "Hol

  • Twice Marked,Twice Loved    Chapter 26: Balance Broken

    The citadel's stars winked out one by one, plunging the Veil into an unnatural twilight, the crystalline spires groaning as fractures spiderwebbed across their surfaces. Autumn's body convulsed in Gale's arms, shadows slithering beneath her skin like veins of midnight ink, the hive's core embedding itself deeper with every heartbeat. Alina's howl echoed within her mind, a desperate cry muffled by the encroaching void, her wolf essence fraying at the edges as the possession took hold. Elara knelt beside them, her hands glowing with the remnants of her uncorrupted moonlight, but her face was ashen, the toll of her own near-possession evident in the tremors racking her frame."Autumn!" Gale's voice was a raw plea, his golden aura flaring wildly as he poured everything into the bond, trying to anchor her soul. Kane surged beneath his skin, claws digging into the stone floor, but the shadows in Autumn's veins repelled him, a cold burn that made him recoil. Elias stood nearby, his silver li

  • Twice Marked,Twice Loved    Chapter 25: Void Within

    The Veil's crystalline citadel materialized around them in a swirl of stars, the portal snapping shut behind Gale as he carried Autumn's limp body through. Her skin was pale as moonlight, her chest rising in shallow breaths, Alina's presence a faint echo within the bond, whimpering like a wounded pup. Gale's heart pounded, Kane's fury and fear blending into a roar that echoed through the spires. "Lysara! Help her!" he demanded, laying Autumn on a glowing pedestal in the central chamber, where Elias still lay in his healing cocoon, vines of starlight weaving over him.Lysara rushed forward, her constellation eyes widening at Autumn's state. "The amulet's price was too high," she murmured, placing hands over Autumn's chest, channeling Lunar Veil energy—a cascade of ethereal light that seeped into her. Amaya joined, her healer's magic intertwining, but her face was drawn, the strain of the battle and her pregnancy evident. Levi paced nearby, his wounds bandaged hastily, guilt etched in h

    The woman's revelation hung in the air like a noose, her radiant yet dark form stepping fully from the portal, her face an eerie reflection of Autumn's—older, sharper, lines etched by untold years of power and corruption. The cloned army paused, their soul-harvested faces frozen in grotesque mimicry, as if awaiting her command. Autumn's breath caught, her essence draining from the amulet's overuse, a cold void spreading through her chest. The bond with Gale flickered, his golden aura straining to hold her together, but the pain was overwhelming, her vision tunneling as Alina whimpered within."You... you're me?" Autumn rasped, her voice barely a whisper, the star-forged amulet scorching her palm. The lair's ruins seemed to warp around the woman, shadows bending to her will, the entity's seal groaning beneath the ground as if responding to her presence. Gale's claws dug into the stone, Kane's form half-shifted, his eyes blazing with denial. "This is a lie," he snarled, positioning hims

  • Twice Marked,Twice Loved    Chapter 23: Fractured Realms

    The scream echoed through the Veil like a rift in the stars, Levi's pain slicing through the bond with brutal clarity. Autumn staggered in the crystalline citadel, her hand flying to her chest as if the wound were her own. Gale caught her elbow, his eyes wide with alarm, Kane's growl vibrating through him. "Levi!" he roared, the name bouncing off the spires, but the connection had severed, leaving only a haunting silence.Lysara's constellation eyes darkened, her starlight cloak flickering as she waved a hand, summoning a scrying pool in the citadel's center. The water rippled, revealing fractured images: the lair in ruins, rebels fleeing, and Levi—bloodied but defiant—clashing with the armored figure at the ravine's edge. The leader's black armor gleamed with crescent runes, their helm obscuring their face, but the stance, the silver aura peeking through—it mirrored Elias's."No," Autumn whispered, horror coiling in her gut. "It can't be him. Elias is here, healing." She glanced at t

    The assassin's blade gleamed with an unholy sheen, its void eyes reflecting nothing but endless darkness as it plunged toward Autumn's heart. Time stretched in that frozen instant, the lair's chaos—a symphony of crumbling stone, rebel shouts, and the entity's muffled roars from below—fading into a distant hum. Alina's power surged within her, manifesting as a shimmering shield of ethereal fur and moonlight, a protective barrier that erupted from Autumn's core. The blade struck the shield with a deafening crack, sparks of silver and black energy exploding outward, illuminating the bloodied faces of Gale, Levi, and the guardians.The assassin recoiled, its borrowed body convulsing as the void eyes widened in surprise. "The Shadowed One... claims you," it hissed, its voice a chorus of whispers from the abyss. But Alina's shield held the bond with Gale amplifying it, his golden aura weaving through like threads of sunlight reinforcing the night. Gale lunged forward, his claws rending the
