“Understood. I'm familiar with the place, but I've never been inside. Do you have any images that would give me a better understanding of what you might be looking for?” Ah, she's such a sweet, naive little one. “Club Red does not allow cameras or video to be taken inside.” I'll leave out the fact that there are plenty of security cameras, that footage is not something that can be shared with anyone outside, and I highly doubt either Rico or Blake would allow me to make use of those videos. No, I'm going to have to take Bella inside the club so she can get a feel for what I’m looking for.

The elevator dropped not up, not to another floor below, or underground. I felt the shift in the air the moment we passed beneath the casino’s shell. The scent changed, no more stale alcohol and sweat. Down here, it was sterile. Liam adjusted his suit jacket. “They’re cycling through southern regions tonight. Mostly unregistered wolves, low-profile. We’re not looking for drama. You said you wanted someone distant. Someone clean.” I nodded but didn’t respond. My gut twisted. I didn’t like this. I didn’t like the idea of buying someone who didn’t even know what she was being pulled into. But this wasn’t about love. This wasn’t about romance. This was about surviving a curse that refused to loo

I hear the door slam shut and I know Domenico is gone before the blanket falls from my eyes. **** "I will be fine," I say carefully pulling myself back to reality. Dom nods and I withdraw my hand to focus on the food my lycan family is convinced will aid me in my shift. I spear a piece of venison on my fork and close my eyes. I can feel the table watching me as I shove the bite in my mouth but I am picturing a median-well ribeye so I don't think about them too much. Surprisingly the meat tastes amazing and chewing it doesn't cause me to gag once before I swallow.

Others were newer, clearly made to impress the foreign nobles whose colors now filled the hall. A server offered me a plate. I selected a bit of everything: honey-roasted boar glazed in rosemary and smoke, wildroot mash laced with garlic and herbs, savory seedbread, crisp mountain greens with lemon pine dressing. “Try this one,” Tyler said, nodding to a goblet filled with glistening crimson. “Moonberry wine. Reserved only for bond ceremonies.” I took the glass. The wine was dark and rich, sweet at first but followed by a burn that settled somewhere deep in my chest. My fingers curled tighter around the stem. Tyler watched me with a quiet intensity, like he was memorizing the moment.

The faint vibration humming beneath my skin. The kings' aura. Corbin led me through one of the massive archways and up a series of stone steps. The higher we climbed, the stronger the sensation became. And when I finally reached the top and looked down into the arena, my breath caught. Fenric, Rhydan, and Brammon were in the center of the coliseum. Fighting each other. All three had partially shifted into their beast forms. Fenric moved with terrifying speed, dark claws flashing whenever he struck. Rhydan's tail lashed through the air like a whip, each blow carrying enough force to crack stone. And Brammon stood like a mountain amidst the chaos, every footstep making the ground tremble.

" He asked, a bit worried. " Do you expect me not to be? Of course, I'm okay! " She chuckled happily. " Do you know what this is, huh? " She asked, and Axion nodded negatively. " Your search is over, Axion, you just found her...you did! " Glinda revealed, and Axion's eyes widened. His lips parted in shock. " You mean...I found the...Red Phoenix? " He asked, just to be sure. " According to what I know and all the books I've read about them, only a Red Phoenix can possess this red-feathered hair tie. And if you're one thousand and one percent sure you found this on someone...then yes, you've found her "

In his wolf form, looking like a dire wolf, Nathan and Lilith made their way deeper into the woods behind the school. Once they get deeper into the forest, they both transform back to their human forms as Lilith swallows her nerves and says, “You're Impossibly fast and strong…You undoubtedly have the same markings as mine on your upper back and arms. Your eyes glow a crimson color which is not normal for werewolves, and I know that for a fact since I used to have teal eyes, and now I have emerald green; they sometimes have dots of Amber in them.

As Adrian dripped his blood into a basin, his lips turned pale and his nail beds lost all color. He then sat down nearby, forcing himself to stay alert as he carefully mixed the celestial herbs in the correct proportions. Eventually, Adrian created a blue-glowing spirit liquid that carried a red tint. "One freshly brewed Beast Nurturing Liquid coming right up,” he quipped in satisfaction, relieved that everything had gone smoothly in the final steps.
