But my fingers dripped with its blood. A whisper rose behind me. I didn’t understand the words— But my bones leaned toward them. --- “Daughter of flame and ash… You walk where even the gods dared not.” My chest locked.

The weight behind it was ancient. Endless. --- Something uncoiled in my gut.

A more recent picture than the one of the thirteen fourteen year old we found in the house. Oliver urges me to continue as I stumble around the right words. He nearly shouts for me to spit it out. I cut right to the point. “Reedus isn’t her father.” Oliver’s request of ‘who’ goes unheard, lost to the static in my head. “Drystan.” The demon king. The pages say it all.

she says with a big smile. After that, I dismissed her. Not long after that, Venus comes in and tells me that Soren recruited the lycans, which are like werewolves but much stronger, and that he also recruited werewolves and dwarves. "Ok, go inform the generals also. I want you to go to the daughter of Hephaestus that we have in the royal forge and have her start working on gear for the vampires, because a werewolf bite is deadly to vampires. Inform the Transylvania Royal families of this as well," I tell her, and she nods as she heads out to do what I said, and I go over to a map and add werewolves, lycans, and dwarfs figurines to Soren's growing army.

My body dissolved into drifting silver light. "Lyla! My daughter!" my father cried, reaching desperately forward. The light slipped through his fingers. Caleb lunged toward it, grasping at empty air. Nothing remained. Only a necklace fell from the ashes with a soft clatter against the stone. The string of beast fangs lay exposed on the pale altar, looking rough and out of place. My father kneeled and reached toward it. The moment his fingers touched the necklace, he jerked his hand back as if burned.

I put my six-year-old daughter in my mother-in-law’s hands as I was busy with an overseas project. Every month, I would send her 20,000 dollars in allowance, not including holiday cash gifts. My mother-in-law would always talk about how well my daughter ate and slept during every video call. In the video, a feast was always laid before my daughter. So when her teacher claimed that she had fainted out of hunger during class, my first thought was that she must have called the wrong number. I rushed back home and headed straight to the hospital. The doctor said that my daughter was suffering from long-term malnutrition and her weight was far below the average. She also had severe post-trau

I hit the answer button, and Evelyn's desperate sobs filled my ear. "Mom, why are you doing this to me? I'm your daughter, not your enemy! You're pushing me to the edge..." I cut her off, ending the call, and pulled out a bag of imported beef jerky for my pet dog. Just then, a nurse came by carrying a bottle with a bold label. "Ms. Smith, this is your dog's iron supplement. Give two milliliters once a day. This imported brand works better because it's absorbed more easily."

I walked to edge where White ice met black smoke, where white light met black cold, and I knelt again, like I knelt to anoint ice, and I put both palms flat not on ice this time, but on black smoke itself, on cold that sank and drank light. Smoke burned, cold burn, worse than silver net burn, worse than silver knife burn, burn that tried to drink light from inside chest. I pushed light from inside chest, First Mother water light, full anointed light, into black smoke, into black flame far bank that was made from Old Oak dead body. For a second, nothing. Then black smoke under my palms turned white. White smoke, warm, rising instead of sinking, smelling like snow and moon and Mara hands. Whit

Let’s go! Smoke blurred my vision as I leapt from the ground to the third floor in one motion and then reached to sixth. Glass shattered beneath my feet as I entered through a broken window. Flames roared around me, their heat pressing against my silver fur. My nose twitched, trying to pick up his scent, but the smoke was too thick. The smell of charred wood and chemicals drowned everything else. Where are you, Dad? I tried to reach him through the mental link we shared, but there was nothing. Static. It was like his presence had vanished from my mind entirely. Panic clawed at my throat, but I forced it down. There wasn’t time to falter.

He didn’t know how should he persuade her. Suddenly, he looked at the little girl’s face after hearing the sounds of her sobbing. With the light of fire, he could see tears were rolling down her eyes ceaselessly. “They said my father has betrayed our country. They said my father is a traitor” She continued sobbing. “They killed my mother, my unborn brother, they killed Xin er. They thought she was me because she was wearing my clothes” Yin Yue was crying her eyes out. “I do not want to live too”

Alpha Xander shakes their hands as he greets them before turning to introduce Luna Leslie and us girls, “This is my lovely mate Luna Leslie, our daughter Marci, Beta Marcus’s daughter, Callie, and Gamma Dave’s daughter, Celeste.” That was our cue to look into their eyes and shake their hands.
