Aria’s POV“Stand down,” Viktor said coolly, without turning his head. His voice wasn’t raised, but it sliced through the air sharply.The vampires obeyed immediately, halting in their movement, but they hissed threateningly as they eyed Knox and I with hatred, while some eyed Lilith with curiosity.Knox growled, and the wolves behind him stopped in their tracks.Shawn stepped forward slightly, his eyes scanning me from head to toe. He didn’t speak, but the slight nod of his head and the relief in his expression were enough. I gave him a soft smile in return.Silence fell again. It was the kind of silence that came before something exploded.Viktor narrowed his eyes at Knox. “Your mate brought back my mate and child, but I won't forget that you killed them. So, the next time I see you—” he said, his voice dropped. “I won’t hesitate to kill you.”Knox didn’t even blink. “You kidnapped my pregnant mate. So if I see you first, I’ll rip your heart out.”They stared at each other, without

Aria's POVI was back at that tomb—the tomb that Lilith’s body had laid on a few hours ago. Only this time, the tomb was completely empty.The marble platform was completely empty. All that was left was that cursed stake.It was in the center of the platform, shining faintly.My eyes widened slightly as I realized that it was the same stake that I had pulled from Lilith’s chest.My breath hitched. What was going on?What was I doing here?The last thing I remembered was falling asleep beside Knox. We were in the car, heading home. So why was I waking up here with a strange feeling running through my body?What the hell was this?My heart pounded in my chest as I reluctantly took a step closer to the platform. Something felt off, and all I wanted was to be back in the car with Knox.“Well, well, well… We meet at last. Aria, the mate of the Wolf King.”I spun around instantly.From the shadows, an old woman approached. She was hunched, very thin, and her skin was wrinkled. She walked sl

Aria’s POVDisbelief. Shock. Confusion. Several emotions raced through my mind at the same time.I opened my mouth, then closed it several times, before I could finally speak.“What the hell…” I whispered, stepping back. My throat was dry. “What the actual hell?”Jade smirked, her arms folded as she leaned casually against one of the marble pillars like she wasn’t the reason my brain felt like it had been hit by a truck.“You’re her daughter?” I gasped, blinking rapidly. “You’re her daughter?” I repeated.She arched an eyebrow. “Yes, yes I am.”I let out a shaky laugh, shaking my head in utter disbelief. “No. No, this is crazy. This doesn’t make any sense. You’ve been in my head for several months. I trusted you. You helped me. You warned me. You saved my life several times. You know everything about me, and you’re the daughter of the person who cursed my mate?”I stumbled back a step as panic surged through me. This was a nightmare that I desperately needed to wake up. “What the hell

Aria's POV“I don't know.”Something in Jade's voice made my stomach twist. It wasn’t just the words, it was the way she said them. Her voice was filled with defeat, like she had already gone through every possibility and come up empty.“She’s powerful,” Jade continued. “Too powerful. She’s my mother. I should know.”Dread ran down my spine. I had never heard Jade sound this way before.There was silence, then I asked.“Will you tell me everything now?”There was an even longer silence this time.The silence was so long that I thought maybe she wasn’t going to respond.I released a resigned sigh and stared outside, feeling disappointed.Then suddenly—“Okay.”It was just one word, but it hit me hard. Because after several months, Jade was finally going to tell me everything.“Okay,” Jade repeated, her voice was quiet. “I’ll tell you everything.”I sat back in the seat, my heart pounded hard in anticipation.I waited. I didn’t rush her.Jade had been keeping secrets since the moment sh

Aria’s POVThose words slammed into me like a physical blow. For a moment, I almost forgot how to breathe. My own power? No. That wasn’t possible. It couldn’t be.I blinked in shock and disbelief. “That’s… that’s impossible.” I spluttered. My voice cracked on the last word. She must be lying or something. It just couldn’t be.“Why?” Jade asked.“Because I’m a werewolf,” I snapped. “An omega, not a witch. I don’t have magic at all. Werewolves can’t heal people with a touch. That’s what witches do.”Jade snorted. “Are you sure about that?”Her tone sent a sliver of annoyance through me.“Of course I am!” I snapped. “Werewolves don’t have healing abilities.”She scoffed. “And you are so sure that you’re a werewolf?”I scowled. “No Jade, I’m a vampire, disguising myself as a werewolf for over twenty years.” I drawled sarcastically.She released an amused huff. “There’s no need to get all sarcastic on me. It was a simple question, Aria. No need to get defensive.”I rolled my eyes at her in
