All Chapters of FATED TO BE WITH YOU : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

“I have no powers. The only reason I came here was to find my demon side—yet I haven’t even come close. I wasn’t supposed to be here. I was supposed to reach Terranova’s Gate, fight through the waves, and uncover the part of me that’s hidden.If I can’t find it… then maybe Azhadrex chose wrong. Maybe it wasn’t supposed to be me.”The words felt heavy as I spoke them aloud, my chest tightening under the weight of defeat.Tythorax’s gaze remained steady, unwavering. “Azhadrex never chooses wrong,” he said with certainty. “That’s why we have something for you.” His eyes lingered on mine for a moment before he turned, striding toward the massive gate ahead.I hesitated before following.When the gate creaked open, the first thing I saw was Zyron. He stood exactly where I had left him, unmoving, patient.He kept his promise. He waited for me.“Father. Lily,” he greeted, his voice calm and composed.I froze.Father?My eyes widened in shock as I turned to Tythorax. He was Zyron’s father?“I

As we approached the shore, I saw Eric standing in the shallow part of the water, looking completely lost. I paused, my gaze fixed on him.“He’s been like that since last night. He hasn’t said a word or moved from that spot,” Jess said before she and Alex made their way out of the water. I hesitated for a moment before stepping toward him. When I finally stood in front of him, it was as if he didn’t even notice my presence.I reached out, gently touching his hand. The way he flinched and jumped back in shock surprised me. His questioning eyes met mine, and in that instant, I felt my demon side fade, my human side taking over, grounding me in the reality that I was back on the shore—no longer beneath the water. But what I wasn’t expecting was the realization that I was completely naked.“Lily,” Eric breathed, quickly closing the distance between us.A cold gust from the sea swept over my bare skin, sending a shiver down my spine. Before I could react, Eric pulled off his shirt and drap

“I can't believe they left us behind,” I muttered, watching as Eric and Alex disappeared from sight.Lily let out a small chuckle. “Let’s just see if we can keep up.”There was something unreadable about her these days. I could tell she was struggling to believe Eric’s sudden change, just like I was.“He seems so different now, right?” I asked as we took off after them.“Eric?” she asked, glancing at me. I nodded.“Well, he’s still the same, but… livelier. The Eric we knew barely used to smile. Now, when I look at him, I don’t just see him—I see them both.” A faint smile tugged at her lips, but her eyes remained distant.“I’m glad he finally accepted him,” I said, feeling a sense of relief at the thought.“Me too,” she admitted, though there was something heavy in her tone, like her thoughts were elsewhere.I stole a glance at her. “You’re worried about her, aren’t you?”“About who?” she asked, but I could see right through her.“You don’t have to hide it, Lily. I know you’re anxious

As we approached, the sheer grandeur of the castle became even more overwhelming. The towering gates, adorned with intricate silver filigree and engraved with the ancient symbols of the four demon clans, loomed over us like silent sentinels. The air was thick with tension, an oppressive weight pressing down on the demons who lingered outside their homes. Their anxious gazes followed us, their whispers barely audible, as though they feared even the wind would carry their secrets to unwanted ears. It felt as if we carried the fate of Terranovae on our shoulders.When we reached the gate, the guards immediately stepped forward, blocking our path. Jess wasted no time; she jumped off the horse with a determined stride, her presence alone demanding attention. The moment they recognized her, they bowed deeply, a show of respect, yet not a single one of them moved aside."I need to speak to my father. Now!" Jess commanded, her voice cutting through the heavy air like a blade.“We were strictl

“You did a great job,” I said, taking her hand and offering an encouraging smile. She returned it, but there was a heaviness in her eyes that refused to lift.“You think? I just hope this is a new beginning for all of them,” she murmured, her voice laced with worry. It wasn’t just her voice—her entire expression carried the weight of uncertainty.“You worry too much. You just managed to get all of Terranovae’s leaders to work together—something that hasn’t happened in decades,” I reminded her. She needed to believe in herself if she was going to make it to the Abyss of Vareth. That place required strength, not doubt.“I wouldn’t have been able to pull it off without Jess,” she admitted with a heavy sigh. Then, after a brief pause, her expression shifted. “But there’s something I’ve been meaning to ask you.”“Okay, ask me anything,” I said, giving her a small nod of encouragement.“Can you really not come with me to the Abyss of Vareth?” she asked, her eyes locking onto mine, pleading.
