The Dark Lord’s chamber is a masterpiece of ancient elegance, built to honor power without drowning in darkness.

Tall crimson–gold draperies hung from the ceiling, their silky fabric shimmering whenever the wind from the moonlit balcony passed through. The walls were carved from obsidian, streaked with veins of glowing silver, giving the entire room a soft, enchanted radiance rather than a gloomy one.

Floating lanterns shaped like small red fireflies drifted lazily around the chamber, casting w

  • Until My Last Breath: Living My Final Months With the Devil    73. You love her?

    "I’m going to marry Alina.”Liam’s voice was calm, almost indifferent, as he announced in his study room. He sat in his chair, one leg crossed over the other, fingers resting lightly against the armrest. The weight of his words filled the room like a storm waiting to explode.He and Alina had returned to the city only an hour ago. Without hesitation, Liam had summoned Felix, Asher, Xavier, and Micah to inform them personally. He hadn’t asked for advice. He hadn’t asked for approval.He was simply informing them.For several long seconds after he spoke, the room fell into a suffocating silence. The men stared at him as if they hadn’t heard him correctly. It was as though the Devil himself had just claimed he intended to grow wings of light.Then—“Hahaha!”Asher and Xavier looked at each other before bursting into loud laughter, unable to hold it in.“You’re getting married?” Asher said between laughs, clutching his stomach. “How is that even possible?”Xavier shook his head in disbeli

    Alina felt as though every drop of blood had been drained from her body. Her heart pounded erratically in her chest, beating so fast it almost hurt. Her lower lip trembled uncontrollably as she stood there, frozen.Her eyes slowly drifted down to her hand.To the ring.Her vision blurred. Her eyes welled up, and tears spilled freely down her cheeks. She bowed her head, hurriedly wiping them away with the back of her hand, but no matter how hard she tried, the tears refused to stop flowing.Were these tears of joy?Then why did her chest feel so tight?Why did her heart ache at the same time?She had never expected this. She never thought he would agree to marry her. Not after everything he had said, he wasn’t going to marry.Alina felt happiness so overwhelming that it couldn’t be put into words. It flooded her entire being, warm and dizzying. Yet beneath it, fear quietly took root. A strange, unsettling fear whispered that something about this wasn’t right, even though it was exactly

    “I love you, Liam.”The moment those heartfelt words slipped from Alina’s lips, the world seemed to stop breathing. The crackling fire faded into silence, and even time itself appeared to slow. Seconds ticked by painfully as their eyes locked, and realization slammed into her chest.She had said it.Her pulse accelerated, her heart pounding so loudly it felt like it might burst out of her chest. Fear slowly crept into her heart the longer Liam simply stood there, staring at her, silent, unmoving, like a statue carved from stone. She hadn’t meant to say it. In fact, she didn’t even know when those words had escaped her mouth.Alina tried to speak again, tried to explain, to take the words back, but her lips parted uselessly. No sound came out.Liam blinked once. Then again. It was as though he was trying to wake himself from a dream. He was completely shocked by the words that had come from Alina’s mouth. His mind went blank, leaving him speechless and unsure how to react.If it had be

    In Nightspire City, deep within the frozen forest where sunlight barely touched the ground, a lone lady moved swiftly between the towering trees. Her head was covered with a blue scarf pulled low over her face, and a long black gown trailed behind her as she walked. With every few steps, she glanced over her shoulder, her heart pounding as fear crept into her chest. She walked faster, almost running, as if something unseen was chasing her through the shadows.The cold bit into her skin, but she did not stop. Her legs carried her forward until, at last, a small, old hut appeared before her. She slowed to a halt and stood still, listening. The forest was unnaturally quiet, no birds, no insects, only the faint rustling of dry leaves beneath the wind.After standing there for a moment, she gathered her courage and approached the hut. The door was low, forcing her to bend as she stepped inside.The moment her foot crossed the threshold, her body stiffened.The stench hit her like a blow, t

    When Alina woke up, her eyes slowly adjusted as she stared around, her brows knitting together in confusion.Where was she?This wasn’t her room. It wasn’t even her room in Liam’s house.She pushed herself up and sat on the bed, her head throbbing lightly. Then memory slowly returned; she and Liam had gone on a trip… she had fallen asleep in the car. Her gaze drifted around the room again, and surprise flickered across her face at how old everything looked.The bedroom felt frozen in time. The wooden bed frame beneath her was worn and slightly creaky, its surface smoothed by years of use. Beside the bed stood a simple wooden nightstand, and on it rested an old lamp and a stack of books tied together with a fraying ribbon. The walls were painted a pale cream, now faded in places. A single window let filtered sunlight seep through sheer, yellowed curtains that swayed gently in the breeze. At the far end of the room stood a tall wardrobe, leaning slightly to one side, as though it had st

    Sitting up on the bed, Liam pulled Alina gently until she was seated between his legs. He cupped her cheeks, tilting her face up to his, and captured her lips in a deep kiss. His mouth moved against hers with intensity, leaving Alina breathless as his kiss lingered far longer than she expected.Whe

    Liam didn't let Alina utter a word, as he helped her sit down and zip her dress. His run to her bra, the next moment, he moved his hand and skilfully unhooked her bra, revealing her milky white breasts.Alina hissed as cold air brushed over her naked skin, but that was soon replaced by the heat of

    Liam drove for over an hour. The ride was quiet, so quiet that even the sound of the tires against the road felt loud. Neither of them spoke. Alina sat beside him, occasionally glancing at his profile, wondering where he was taking her. Liam, on the other hand, kept his eyes on the road, his grip s

    The next morning, Alina woke up in her room. Her eyes slowly fluttered open as the memories of the previous night drifted back into her consciousness, and a soft smile spread across her lips. She turned to the side, expecting to find Liam still asleep beside her, but the space was empty. He had alr
