Chapter 141 - You Must Go

Evelynn POVBlood hit the ground before the first breath finished leaving my lungs.Jaxon moved like he’d been waiting his entire life for this moment. He was fast, brutal, laughing under his breath as his blades carved through the first creature’s throat. It didn’t fall clean. None of them did. The thing shrieked, voice splitting into layers, clawing forward even as black ichor poured from the wound.“Yeah.” Jaxon muttered, ducking under a swipe that would’ve taken his head off. “You’re definitely worse than the last batch.”Maddox didn’t waste words. He hit the second one head-on. No hesitation. No testing. Pure force. His shoulder slammed into its chest hard enough to send both of them crashing into the ground. The creature twisted beneath him, spine bending wrong, claws raking across his side - but Maddox didn’t even flinch. He just growled. Low. Deep. Lethal. And tore its head clean off.It didn’t die immediately. - Of course it didn’t. - It kept moving - limbs jerking, claws s

Chapter 142 - Under The Cover

Evelynn POVThe moment I crossed the threshold, the world changed. Not visibly at first. The cabin still stood the same - crooked beams, splintered wood, dust thick in the air like the place hadn’t breathed in years.But the silence - the silence was wrong. Too complete. Too heavy. Like sound itself had been stripped out of this place… or devoured.Behind me, I felt them. All three of my mates - Maddox, Calder, Jaxon. Three steady presences at my back - distant enough to pretend I was doing this alone. Close enough to prove me I wasn’t.Something in me was already screaming to turn around. To run to them and never ever come back here. “You don’t get to be afraid now.” I muttered to myself.My wolf huffed with irony. "Yeah."I stepped deeper inside with only with sheer will.The floor creaked under my weight - too loud, too sharp. Each sound cutting through the stillness. My senses stretched instinctively. Everything was wrong. The air smelled of damp earth, rot… iron. And something

Chapter 143 - Deal With The Devil

Evelynn POVShe was tall. Too thin. Like she was starving for a long time. Limbs were just slightly too long. She wore a very simple dress. I saw scars and dirty, tangled hair. Blond and so long they ended at her waist.I felt pity for her. One day she had to be beautiful.“Snap out. ” My wolf growled at me.Her head tilted at me. And I saw her eyes. And her eyes were endless black. Empty and full all at once.“Evelynn.”My name settled into the air like it belonged there. Like I belonged here.My grip tightened around the blade. “You don’t get to use my name.” I wanted to spit it in her face, but it sound weak. Like I was going to cry not to fight.She smiled. Soft. Knowing. Motherly. “I made you possible.”Cold slid down my spine. “No.” I said immediately. “You don’t get to rewrite that either.”Her head tilted further. Amused. “Still so defiant. So unwill to know more. Such a pity.” she murmured.My wolf anger rose drasticly. The bond with mates flickered - harder this time. Maddox

Chapter 144 - The Offer In The Dark

Evelynn POVSomewhere deep in the cave something made a weird noise. The sound rolled through the chamber like stone grinding against stone.Every hair on my body rose.The Hollow Mother didn’t turn toward it. She only kept her black gaze fixed on me, smiling like whatever lived deeper in the dark was no threat to her at all.Of course it wasn’t. It belonged to her. Or worse... she belonged to it.The thought sent a chill straight through my spine.Behind me, the bond surged hard enough to make my knees threaten to buckle. - Maddox’s rage. Calder’s cold focus. Jaxon’s sharpened alarm ready to sprint here. - They felt my fear.Good. That was good. Soon I might need them. So I let them stay alert. But I didn't call them. I hadn’t dragged them into this cave just to hand them over to something old and starving. It need to be done in the right order, so we can stay alive. The cave pulsed beneath my boots. Subtle little nightmare. I tightened my grip on the meteor dagger. The metal humm

Chapter 145 - The Betrayer

Evelynn POVMireya stepped into the dim light as if she belonged there. As if this place had been waiting for her too.The silver of her eyes caught the faint gleam from the wet cave walls, turning them ghost-bright. Her robes brushed the stone without sound. No limp. No tremor. None of the fragile age she had worn like costume every time I’d seen her before.Interesting. So the bent old mystic routine had been theater. Noted.For one wild second, I almost preferred the Hollow Mother.“The dramatic entrances tonight are getting repetitive.” I said flatly.The Seer smiled. Warmly. That made it worse.“You always did meet fear with sarcasm.”“I usually save knives for betrayal.”Her gaze flicked to the dagger in my hand. “Then perhaps hold onto that one a little longer.”Behind me, the bond snapped tight enough to hurt. Maddox was close. Furious. Ready to tear through mountain and stone with his bare hands. Calder was colder - dangerously so. Jaxon felt like a drawn bow.They knew someo

Chapter 146 - The Rite of Flesh

Evelynn POV“Hurry.”The command cracked through the cavern.The Seer stood at the edge of the circle, silver eyes gleaming with impatience, robes stirring in a wind that existed nowhere else. The years she had worn like disguise were gone now. She looked weirdly younger than her age - something preserved by devotion and rot.Behind me, stone thundered. Another hit. The sealed entrance shuddered. - Maddox. - No one else struck walls like they had personally offended him.Good. Let him keep hitting. I needed that distraction. Maybe if they will be more intrested of boys coming in here they will pay less attention to my doings.I looked at the floor. The wind that appeared moments ago swiped the dust and dirt from it. Not all, but now I could clearly see all the patterns on it. I could understand them, like the ones in the Codex. I went to pick up the dagger watching to not be too close to any of the women. They didn't said a word. Only watching my every move. When I felt the cold met

Chapter 147 - Choose The Heart

Maddox POVThe first thing I smelled and saw was blood. Evelynn’s blood. Bright against the stone. Wet across her palm. Spattered over the symbols carved into the cavern floor.The second thing I saw was the dagger in her hand.The third was ... Mireya. What the hell she was doing here? Then it hit me. She... She knew. She betrayed us. Then I looked closer. Something was off with her."Something is wearing the Seer’s body. Bad thing." My wolf spatted.I stopped so hard Calder nearly collided with me.Jaxon hit my other side a heartbeat later, chest heaving, eyes locked on the creature convulsing inside the ruined circle.The Seer’s spine bent the wrong way, then snapped back with a wet crack. Her jaw unhinged. Shadow poured from her mouth.And when she smiled - two mouths moved.“You chose the wrong vessel.”The voice layered over itself. The Hollow Mother beneath the Seer. The Seer beneath the Hollow Mother. Like both were trapped in the same skin. Goddess..Wait. This was what acctu

Chapter 148 - Is It Finally Over ?

Evelynn POV“Godess... It's finnally over.” My voice came out rough against Maddox’s mouth.He pulled back just enough to glare at me. “No,” he said flatly. “Because I’m still deciding whether to kiss you again or yell at you until sunrise.”“Romantic.”“You manipulated an ancient horror, stabbed a possessed woman, nearly got buried alive, and forgot to mention our child was suddenly back.”“I was busy.”His jaw flexed.Calder brushed dust from his coat a few feet away, somehow looking elegant in a collapsing death cave.“She does have a point.” he said mildly. “The evening was eventful.”Jaxon crouched beside the Seer’s body, checking for any final twitch of movement.“If anyone asks,” he said, “I was against all of this.”“You were not.” I said.“I was internally against it.”“Coward.”“Alive coward.” he corrected with a wink.Despite everything, laughter almost rose in my throat. Almost. Then the cavern groaned. All humor vanished instantly.Maddox’s arms tightened around me.“Let'

Chapter 149 - Old As New

Evelynn POVNo one moved. For one suspended heartbeat, the chamber held us exactly where we stood - bloodied, breathing hard, staring at secrets none of us had asked for.Then Maddox grabbed my wrist. “We’re leaving. Now.”“No.”His grip tightened. My chin lifted. His eyes narrowed.Jaxon sighed. “Ah. Good. We’re doing this now.”“We are done here.” Maddox snapped.I pulled my wrist free and stepped toward the pale stairs. The air around them felt different from the rest of the cavern. Cleaner and older in the same time.The suffocating pressure the Hollow Mother had wrapped around this place was gone. In its place was something calmer. Still powerful. But not cruel.The Codex warmed at my side again. Curious. So was I.Behind me, Maddox muttered something creative and threatening under his breath. I ignored him with skill.The pale stone steps were smooth, worn by time rather than damage. Fine lines of silver veined through them like moonlight trapped beneath rock.They were clean. N

Chapter 150 - The Road Back

Evelynn POVI almost laughed. Instead, I turned my head toward the door. “Let’s go. We still have a few things to clean up.”Maddox stared at me for a long second.“You say that like we didn’t just survive cave possession, ritual murder, ancient voices, and whatever that knock was.”“We’re multitaskers.”“You’re exhausting.”“And yet,” I said sweetly, stepping past him, “you keep following me.”His growl followed me out the door. Satisfied, I stepped into the morning light.The woods looked nothing like they had when we arrived. No twisted shadows. No oppressive hush. No sense that the trees themselves were listening. Just pines swaying in a cool breeze, damp earth underfoot, birds making entirely disrespectful amounts of noise. - Normal.I had never appreciated normal so much in my life.Behind me, Jaxon emerged and squinted at the sky. “I hate to be dramatic,” he said, “but sunlight may be my favorite thing now.”“You’re always dramatic.” Calder replied, stepping outside with far to
