Chapter 71

Raina’s POVThe waiting seemed like the hardest part.Wolves murmured to each other, weapons being checked, and strapped tighter their bodies. Zade was sharpening a blade for the third time. Judy leaned against the wall, flipping her dagger like she was bored.The Alpha stood near the broken fountain, arms crossed, eyes on the horizon where the sun was sinking. Dorian was close to him, speaking low until finally the Alpha raised his voice so the rest of us could hear.“Ian is not in his mansion. My scouts checked every corner. Empty. No movement for days.”I frowned. “So he’s hiding somewhere else in the city?”“Or waiting,” the Alpha said flatly. “He wants us to search. He wants us to walk into him on his terms.”Liam folded his arms, his jaw tight. “Then we don’t search blind. He’ll go where there’s blood. Where there are survivors to feed on.”“Not many survivors left,” one of the wolves muttered.“Enough for bait,” Judy said. “He knows what he’s doing.”The Alpha’s jaw tightened.

Chapter 72

Liam’s POVThe air darkened when Ian lifted his hand. Shadows peeled from the walls like living things, twisting into shapes that crawled across the cracked platform. The wolves braced, growls echoing, but the darkness only pooled at Ian’s feet, waiting for his command.He didn’t strike. Not yet. He only smiled, as though the entire room belonged to him already.Then he stepped forward, his shoes echoing against the concrete, every move deliberate. The hybrids flanked him, silent, waiting. His smile was calm, too calm, and it froze the wolves around me in wary stillness.“You make me the villain,” he began, voice smooth, carrying easily through the subway. “You whisper about me in your camps, you tell stories of the monster who bled this city dry. But the truth? The truth is far less poetic. I am not your enemy. I am your salvation.”The wolves growled at that, low and unified, but Ian only lifted his hand, silencing them with the arrogance of someone who believed himself untouchable.

Chapter 73

Raina’s POV“Liam—”My voice broke before I even finished his name. He wouldn’t look at me. His piercing silver eyes were locked on the floor, his jaw clenched so hard I thought he might shatter his own teeth.“Don’t,” he bit out. The single word cut sharper than any blade.I stepped forward anyway, my hand half-reaching for him. “Please, just listen. I was going to tell you. I just—”“You were going to tell me?” His voice rose, raw, accusing. His head snapped up, eyes burning. “When? After I cried my eyes out for you? After I swore to fight every last one of them to protect you?” His arm flung wide at the wolves, the hybrids, Ian watching with smug delight. “Or maybe after you drain everyone of us to keep yourself alive?”“That wasn’t—” My throat ached. “I wasn’t ready. I thought now wasn't the right time. I’m not the Mel you knew. I’m me now. I’m Raina. I didn’t want you to see me as her—”“You are her,” he shouted, stepping closer, his fury radiating. “You’re Mel, and you let me be

Chapter 74

Liam’s POVI should have been happy.The woman I had loved more than anyone else wasn’t dead after all. Mel had been here all along—alive, breathing, standing in front of me under another name. I should have felt relief, gratitude, joy.But what I felt instead was anger.Because if Raina was Mel, then every word she’d spoken, every look she’d given me, had been a lie—and I’d been right all along. I’d felt the similarities, but she let me believe I was crazy.She let me believe she was someone else, someone untouched by the sins of my past. She let me fall for her all over again, knowing the truth would cut me open. And when I asked her about Mel, when I begged to know what had happened to the woman who made me, she told me Ian killed her. She let me grieve a ghost when she was standing right there in front of me.And now I knew the worst part: Mel hadn’t just left me for a human. She’d abandoned vampirism altogether, choosing mortality over me.The betrayal burned deeper than any woun
