Evelyn plunged through the collapsing realm like a falling star.Wind howled past her, cold enough to burn. The darkness twisted around her in spirals, dragging at her limbs as though trying to stop her descent. She reached for anything—light, ground, breath—but the void swallowed all of it.Then—A soft glow bloomed beneath her.A mirror suspended in nothing—its surface rippling like moonlit water.Evelyn struck it.Instead of shattering, the mirror swallowed her whole in a rush of ancient magic.---She landed hard on chilled stone.Her breath hitched as she pushed up on trembling arms. This realm was nothing like the shadow one she’d just fled. Here, the air felt alive—pulsing, humming with energy so potent it made her bones thrum.Pale, silver light washed everything. Moonlight. Eternal and impossibly bright.High marble pillars rose around her, carved with sigils she felt she knew but couldn’t name. A soft breeze carried the scent of night-blooming flowers and something older… so

Kael reacted instantly.He shoved Selene behind him, his claws lengthening, his beast form swelling beneath his skin. His snarl echoed through the marble halls, vibrating the pillars.Aldrich’s aura exploded outward in response—massive, overwhelming, ancient. The High Realm itself dimmed beneath his presence, the moonlight flickering as though unsure which power to obey.“Kael,” the guardian hissed, “stand down. He is her father—”“He’s a threat,” Kael snapped without looking away from the towering Lycan. “He comes near her and I—”Aldrich’s growl cracked the floor.“You forget your place, pup.”Kael lunged.Aldrich met him head-on.The impact was catastrophic.Shockwaves tore through the Hall of Pillars, sending ancient carvings crumbling, moonfire exploding in rings around them. Selene staggered backward as the two largest forces in her life collided for the first time—one driven by primal protectiveness, the other by blood-deep claim and terror.Kael’s claws raked across Aldrich’s

Kael turned back to Selene—and every wall inside him shattered.He pulled her into his lap, her body limp against him, her head lolling onto his shoulder.He kissed her—not softly this time,but with desperate, claiming need—pouring his power through the connection of their mouths.The realm trembled.Selene gasped against him, her body jolting as his alpha aura wrapped around her like molten heat.His hands slid to her hips, pulling her closer, grounding her with every touch, every breath, every growled whisper against her lips.“You’re mine,” he murmured, voice roughened by fear and devotion.“You hear me, Selene? Not his. Not the prophecy’s.Mine.”His lips traced down her throat, heat igniting where his mouth touched her skin, pulling her back into her body, back into the bond.Selene’s magic responded—silver flaring under her skin—seeking Kael, reaching for him.Her legs tightened around his waist on instinct.Aldrich looked away sharply, jaw clenched, giving them what priva

Kael froze.Selene’s whisper drifted into the silence like frost:“There’s someone else inside me.”Not the Devourer.Not Morrigan.Something new.Something older.Kael’s grip tightened on her shoulders, not harsh, but unyielding, as if afraid she’d vanish between one breath and the next.“Selene…”His voice dropped to a trembling growl.“What do you mean someone else?”Her lips parted, breath shaky against his throat.“I can feel her. She’s been… watching. Waiting.”A shiver rippled through her.“She woke when Morrigan touched the realm.”Kael growled low, the sound vibrating through his chest into her body.“Is she hurting you?”“No.”Selene swallowed hard.“She’s trying to merge.”Kael’s heart nearly stopped.He pulled her into his lap again, cradling her against his chest as if shielding her from something inside her own bones.“Not happening,” he whispered fiercely.“Not while I breathe.”Her fingers trembled as they slid up his chest, clutching the back of his neck. Her power pu

Selene’s breath hitched.Kael felt her pain ripple through their bond and stroked her hair gently, soothing her.“Stay with me. Tell me if you feel anything wrong.”She nodded weakly against him.“I… I feel her. I always did. A whisper. A pressure. A dream I thought was mine.”The twin smiled softly.“They were mine.”Her gaze moved to Kael.“And yours.”Kael stiffened instantly.The temperature dropped.“Explain,” he growled.She circled them slowly — not threatening, but with the grace of someone studying a priceless relic. Every step she took made the shadows deepen, curl, pulse.“You and Selene were born for a dual bond,” she said.“Shadow and moonlight. Strength and wisdom. Fury and calm. Two souls sharing one vessel.”She stopped behind Kael, her breath brushing the back of his neck.He didn’t flinch — but his wolf lunged inside him, snarling.The twin chuckled.“So reactive. So loyal. The perfect Alpha.”She moved to stand before him again.“When Selene’s mother saw how powerfu
