Aria’s POVRaven walked beside me in silence, while Viktor walked ahead of us, lost in thought. His shoulders were tense as he walked, and his fists were clenched. I couldn’t even begin to imagine how he was feeling at the moment.His guards who had come with him were disposing of Kale’s body. According to Raven, if Kale’s body wasn’t properly disposed of, there was a possibility he might come back to life. Killing vampires wasn’t easy, but it was even harder to keep them dead.As we descended the stairs leading to Lilith’s tomb, I swallowed hard as the memories of my last time here came flooding in.How I stumbled upon Viktor mourning for Lilith. That dark look in his eyes that had now faded. How he had stalked after me, and had bitten me.I would have died if not for—“What is going on with you?” Raven’s sharp voice pulled me out of my daze. I hadn’t even realized that I had stopped walking.Viktor turned back to look at us, his eyes flicking between Raven and me.“I’m fine,” I lied

Aria's POVI nodded, listening intently as Jade spoke.Viktor and Raven watched me in confusion, probably wondering what I was doing.When Jade was done speaking, I turned to both of them. “Jade said that—”“Who is Jade?” Raven asked again.“It’s a long story, I'm not sure what she is” I replied, waving my hands. “Now listen to me. Jade said that no matter what you see, no matter what you hear while I’m doing this… you cannot interrupt me.”Viktor furrowed his eyebrows. “What do you mean?”“She means if you interfere, we’ll die,” I said seriously. “Both me and Lilith. That’s how delicate this is.”Raven’s face turned pale. “You’re not serious.”“I am,” I retorted firmly. “If you interrupt, even for a second, whatever thread that is holding Lilith’s soul will snap. It will destroy her spirit… and it’ll pull me in with it. Both of us will die. Do you understand me?”“Really?” Viktor asked in shock.I nodded. “Every word. This has to be done without interruption. I don’t care what you se

Knox's POVI snarled in fury. A low growl erupted from my chest.Fenrir’s rage boiled inside me. His bloodlust was so strong that it clouded my thoughts completely. I could barely see Viktor, all I could see was red.Viktor's face was calm—too calm, like he wasn’t the reason my mate was gone, like he hadn’t taken her from me.I was going to kill him, but it wouldn't be fast, or easy. I will kill him slowly.I wanted to feel his bones shatter under my claws. I wanted to rip his skin open inch by inch, tear through him, break him, make him scream for mercy before I ended him.I released another snarl, and the walls shook. My muscles coiled and tensed, as I prepared to pounce.Viktor stood his ground.“I know what this looks like—” he began.“Don’t,” I growled. My voice shook with rage. “Don’t speak.”He raised both hands slowly. “Wolf king, listen—”Wrong move.I lunged at him, swiping my claws at him.He vanished just as my claws slashed through the air where his throat had been. I tur

Aria’s POV (after she touched the stake)Everything went black.I didn’t feel the marble platform under me anymore. I couldn't feel my body at all.I was floating, or maybe falling. It was hard to tell. It was pitch-dark, so I couldn't see anything.“Jade?” I called. I needed to first make sure that she was with me.‘I’m right here. Now, let's—”A faint whisper reached my ears.I turned sharply. “Did you hear that?” I asked.‘Yes, I did. Follow it,’ She replied.“But how, everywhere is dark. I can't see anything.”Immediately I finished speaking, a faint light shone ahead. It was weak, but it was enough to guide me forward through the long dark hallway that seemed endless.“I guess I don't have a choice,” I mumbled to myself.My feet didn’t touch anything, but I moved toward the light, almost like I was gliding.“You’re not supposed to be here.” A voice rasped sharply.I paused.It was Lilith.She was sitting on the floor, right in the middle of the endless hallway that seemed to go on

Aria's POVFor a quick moment, I saw his eyes.Those beautiful gray eyes that belonged to Knox.But it vanished very quickly, and was replaced by that ugly red and black.I froze, my heart pounding faster, and my hands shaking.The beast growled deeper this time, crouching lower, getting ready to strike.I flinched instinctively as fear overwhelmed me. This was dangerous, and I was risking a lot being this close.“Keep going, Aria” Viktor said, without taking his eyes off the monster. “It’s working. You saw it, didn’t you? He’s in there.”‘Mate needs us,’ Rhea said firmly in my head.I nodded slowly. “Knox… I know you can hear me.”I took another step.“You told me once you didn’t deserve a mate like me,” I whispered. “But I never believed that because I know you. Beneath everything, you’re a good man.”The beast twitched.“Remember the first time I came to your pack?” I asked, “You started avoiding me because you were scared of hurting me.”His ears flicked.I continued. “But look ho
