The Warmth I Didn't Deserve

LiraI didn’t remember falling asleep. But I must have, because by the time I opened my eyes, the rain had stopped and the only thing that I could smell was the wet earth.I lay on the floor with my face touching the cold wooden floor and the pieces of the broken mirror still by the side of me. My hand was cut and bandaged in old cloth. Probably me. Maybe not. My body felt distant. Like it was detached.And just then, the cabin door opened slowly.“I leave for a few hours and come back to this?”I didn’t move. Damian stood just by the door, taking hold of the mess before him. The chair that was against the wall, the broken bowl, the blood stains on the floor. His arms were full: a hare, a half-wrapped loaf of bread and a flask of something in it. His eyes then settled on me.“You alive?”Barely. I didn’t answer. Just blinked slowly. He dropped the supplies on the table and crouched beside me.“What the hell happened?”“I happened,” I mumbled, slurring slightly. “Sorry about the chair.

The Beginning of Us

KolIt had been a week since we buried Liam.Some part of me still wake up expecting to see him standing at the doorway to my study with his arms crossed, ready to ask me how much more he could do to earn his place back into the pack. Or to jokingly shove a report in my face and tell me that paperwork wouldn’t sign itself. But he was gone. And that truth say heavy in my chest.And yet, life didn’t wait. There was still Aria. There was still our baby. A piece of light amidst all the grief. A new beginning.That’s why tonight had to happen. No mourning, no reminders of war or betrayal or death. Just a quiet, warm banquet in the inner courtyard with music, lights, and something close to hope.And a formal announcement that Aria, my Luna, was carrying my child.I still couldn’t believe it. The words felt too big to sit comfortably on my tongue. But they were real. Aria. Me. Our baby.“Alpha Kol,” one of the cooks beamed as I passed by the edge of the garden. “Congratulations! We are all s

What’s Left of Me

Lira I sat at the edge of the bed in Damian’s oversized flannel shirt, my hair still damp from the bath he'd all but forced me to take. The clothes swallowed me whole, but it was the warmest I’d felt in weeks.Damian had left the room, about going to the worn-out sofa, giving me space and giving me distance. He respected that. I hated it.“Damian,” I said softly, turning my head over my shoulder.He stirred immediately. He was always alert and always cautious.“You don’t have to sleep on the couch,” I said. “Come here.”He hesitated. “I don’t want to make you uncomfortable.”I raised a brow. “We’ve shared worse, haven’t we? I bled on your floor, destroyed your furniture, broke your mirror, you bathed me…”“And yet I’m still here,” he said dryly.I smiled faintly. “Exactly. So… come here. Share the bed. We’re not strangers anymore.”He stood slowly, walking toward the bed. “We’re not lovers either.”I patted the mattress beside me. “We’re friends, aren’t we?”He watched me for a beat

A Dark Lily

AriaBefore I had woken up to realise that it was all a dream, I found myself screaming in top of my voice.I jumped out of bed with my heart pounding profusely and my body drenched in ice-cold sweat. Instinctively, my hand reached to my belly. And now that I was awake, there was nothing but silence. I could no longer hear the fire, no smoke, no running and no dreadful screams for help. It was nothing but the night.Next to me, Kol lay calmly sleeping, softly breathing in and out. This was the first time in weeks that he had slept like this without waking up to every odd noise. It was something I couldn’t take away from him.And so I gulped down the lump in my throat and climbed out of the bed as quietly as I could.I went out to balcony. I allowed the moonlight touch my bare skin. It felt so cool. The world somehow felt still but I couldn’t say the same about me.That dream, of a burning skyscraper, a building that I had never seen before, the rising fire so hot that I could not touc

Blood on the Bloom

KolSleep was slowly becoming a luxury I could no longer afford.Aria was beside me, restless. The warning in the garden had made the both of us restless. There was no peace. Not when Lira was still out there, watching, planning, and I had no idea how she made that flower bloom.I slipped out of bed quietly and found Elias waiting at the door, his face was grave.“No breach,” he reported. “No scent trail. No broken gates, no strange footprints.”I clenched my jaw. “She was here, Elias. That flower didn’t bloom itself.”He nodded. “I’m not doubting it. Which leaves us with two possibilities, either she used dark magic… or someone inside helped her.”My stomach twisted at the implication of that. I then turned away and walked down the corridor toward the inner estate with my voice tight. “Tighten the borders. No one gets in or out without my permission. I want the entire staff vetted. Every single one. New, old, doesn’t matter. If anyone so much as sniffed the wrong wind, I want to know

The One That Mattered

LiraI never meant to fall in love again. But Damian had this way of sitting beside me in silence without making it feel like silence at all. Like I wasn’t some frayed mess of vengeance and regret. Like I was just… a woman. Someone worth saving.And now, knowing he was helping me end the very thing that stood between me and peace, Aria’s child, I couldn’t stop the affection from growing inside me. It was slow and quiet at first, like a fire about to burn out. But now? It burned. And I hated that it did.Still, I let myself enjoy it.We spent mornings in bed, tangled up and sharing wet, steamy, passionate kisses. We shared meals over his firewood stove. We joked. We kissed a lot. And sometimes, we’d watch the sunset and then have sex till the sun had completely disappeared.He didn’t ask questions about the past. Only about the now. Only about me. And it was ruining everything.One morning, as I prepared our breakfast, he walked in, brushing mud off his boots. He smiled, the kind of sm

The Last Thread

AriaThe room was filled with incense and candles. It’s warmth felt shallow even as I held Kol’s while standing before the witch.She laid the components for the ritual before her. The bloodroot that had been freshly plucked from the soil. She dropped it into the bowl first. Then came a strand of Kol’s hair, which she burned slowly. And last, was my offering.The witch looked at me.“The item must be something you hold dear… something sacred.”And so, with my trembling fingers, I reached up to the golden locket around my neck. It caught in my hair for a second, but I yanked it free. My locket.Inside were pictures of me and Lira. One from before everything, before betrayal had names and consequences.The witch nodded and placed it into the bowl. And then, she began.She started with low chants and hums that sounded ancient. The candles flared. For a moment, the ground shook. I clutched Kol’s arm, watching as a dark and violet smoke began to swirl from the bowl, like the colour of a dy

When Mercy Dies

KolI sat outside the infirmary, balancing my elbows on my knees and my fingers digging into my scalp.Aria hadn’t made a sound in hours since she was screaming at everyone. She was finally asleep. Her body was worn thin from the spell, the screaming and most especially, the loss. But I couldn’t rest. I couldn’t even blink without seeing her collapse into my arms, without seeing her blood on my hands, her voice cracking as she begged Lira for our child’s life. That sound, it wasn’t something I’d forget. Not today. Not ever.I had sworn to protect her. I had made that promise with conviction, and I failed.And I failed because I let my mercy outweigh my instincts. I listened when she begged me to give Lira a chance. I convinced myself that there was a trace of the old Lira left in that broken body. But there wasn’t. There never was. There was only poison. And I’d let it live and fester.And now, she has taken everything from us.I tightened my fist whilst staring at the floor. This was

The Upper Hand

KolI remembered that night vividly. Lira stood in front of the mirror, while fixing the clasp of the locket around her neck, just above her collarbone. I was behind her, folding my arms and watching with a lazy half-smile tugging at my mouth."You changed your perfume," I said casually.She glanced at me in the mirror. “I didn’t wear any.”“Lira.” I chuckled, walking closer until I was standing behind her. “Don’t lie to me.”She raised a brow. “I’m not. That’s just me.”I leaned in, breathing her in, subtle, sweet, a little musky with a hint of warmth.“Well,” I murmured, “your body’s scent smells better than anything you could ever buy.”She smiled faintly. “Thank you.”I hadn’t thought about that in a long time. And now, that was exactly the scent I was following. Not perfume. Not soap. Her. And so I crouched behind the wheel of my motorcycle, sniffing the air for that particular scent.We’d been driving for days, but this morning, the scent grew stronger, more tangible. Her trail

The Little Girl On The Train

AriaI couldn’t breathe in that room anymore. It felt like the walls were closing in. Not with Kol out there, hunting Lira. Not while she was still alive.I paced in circles, using one hand to cradle my stomach while the other clenched at my side. I should’ve gone with him. I should’ve stayed by his side. I knew Lira better than anyone. I could’ve helped.So I stormed out the room. But I didn’t make it far. Elias stepped in front of me like a wall, with crossed arms and grim eyes“Where are you going?” he asked, already knowing the answer to his question.“Move,” I said flatly.“I swore to Kol that I’d keep you safe—”“And I swore to myself I wouldn’t sit still while my husband walks into danger!” I snapped. “You know her, Elias. She’s not just smart. She’s evil. If she wants Kol dead, she’ll find a way, even if he’s surrounded by a hundred men.”He didn’t answer.I stepped closer. “I’m not just his mate. I’m his Luna. If something happens to him while I sit here protected behind your
