VALENTINAWith a groan, the iron door yielded to Atlas's efforts, his breathing laboured, and his gaze intense with a sense of urgency.The lingering scent of blood and burnt ash still permeated the air, a reminder of the moment I had ended Sienna's life, her body succumbing in a way that should have brought me peace, but did not. My wrists ached where the chains were. My throat was burning as if in a flame, but I compelled my legs to move forward.“Valentina,” Atlas rasped, gripping my arm. “We don’t have time. Come.” His voice sounded strained, A profound sense of guilt was evident in his expression.I didn’t argue. My body screamed for rest, but my heart surged with one thought: freedom.We moved swiftly through the dimly lit corridors of the dungeon, our footsteps echoing in the silence. The torches cast fragmented shadows upon the damp walls, and each flicker of light served as a reminder that danger might s

VALENTINAAs the ritual circle ignited with energy, the ground vibrated beneath my feet. Crimson runes began to spread across the earth, and Simon stood at the centre, reciting incantations in a deep, unfamiliar language that seemed to carry the weight of ancient magic. His hands were stained with blood, and the atmosphere around him was distorted by heat and shadows. The air was thick with the unpleasant scent of iron and decay.“Valentina,” Simon sneered from the centre, dagger glinting in his hand. “By this blood and by the curse of night, I claim the soul of the living Gemini child!”‘Gemini child?’ Kira’s tone echoed within me, raising a question, but a sudden touch made us forget…Andres's hand gently clasped mine, his calloused fingers offering a brief squeeze before he drew his sword, his golden eyes intently fixed on Simon with a focused intensity.Kira, snarled inside my head, her voice a g

VALENTINA“It's stupid!” Andres groaned out as he walked beside me. His voice was low, edged with a restraint which I could feel clearly.I didn’t say anything.“Why does that moron have to trespass on my territory?” He fumed again. His hand tightened around mine as we walked down the marble corridor leading to the meeting hall.Still, I remained quiet.“Is it even necessary?” He finally turned to me. His frustration was pulsating deeply within his veins, and as his mate, I could feel it deeply.Finally, I paused and glanced up at him. My lips twitch into a soft, assuring smile. “Considering how he tried to help me back in Simon’s fort, yes, indeed. Besides, he only wanted to see Andres. It's just a meeting.”His jaw flexed, blazing golden eyes darkening like clouds threatening rain. “It doesn’t mean he has no intention of causing harm.”"I know." And stepped closer to him, cupping his cheeks, I tiptoed and brushed my lips against his and looked him in the eyes, "I am not denying your

VALENTINAThe day was quite occupied, as it was filled with numerous greetings from nobles and Alphas who were still present following the celebration. Andres managed most of these interactions with his sharp wit and imposing demeanour, while I remained by his side, offering smiles, answering questions, and providing reassurance to those around us… Whispers flared that I was their new queen and they greeted me the same way.It was sort of embarrassing, but Andres looked immensely proud of his work.But the true surprise came in the late afternoon…“Val!” A shrieking tone came from behind, making me turn to my wheels.“AUDREY!” I squealed in delight.My best friend rushed toward me and embraced me, her arms encircling me with such a firm grip that I momentarily felt breathless.I didn't bother though, tears stung my eyes as I hugged her back fiercely. “Goddess, I have missed you so much!” I cried out.“Me too…” She sobbed, then broke the hug, watching me with her glinting eyes. A small

VALENTINAThe next morning I woke up with a throbbing headache in my head and a mind full of new and unfamiliar concerns.“Hey, little wolf.” Andres kissed my forehead and I softly smiled.“Hey…” A huge yawn cleared my tiredness.His brows furrowed, “You don't look like you have slept well… Is it about those nightmares?” His voice dripped with concern.The mention of a nightmare shook me inwardly. My eyes dimmed as my lips pressed tightly. “Yeah, just some fragments of—dark dreams,” I muttered the last part slowly, so slow that it was barely audible even in my ears.He leaned forward, kissing my forehead, “How about you get some sleep now? You'll feel better.”I didn’t decline, I was truly weary with the recent events and nodded weakly.“Good,” he kissed my lips softly. “Then go back to sleep, I'll ask the servants to bring y
