So I’m just trying to grow new ones with these pills,” Alex said. “You’re not crazy. To me, it looks like you’re retarded. How could your legs grow after being chopped off unless you’re an expert above the Immortalization stage,” Dory said.

“You just saved two lives.” She lowered her eyes, shy, her blonde lashes casting shadows over her cheeks. “I just took care of the flowers…” “Exactly.” Sasha smiled, kissing her forehead. “You took care of them, and they took care of us. That’s your miracle, Lyra. A silent miracle.” For a moment, all the weight of that night seemed to lessen. But only for a moment. Because in the distance, Alexei was disappearing into the mansion toward the laboratory, and every second continued to be a desperate race against Carla’s death… and now Yuliam’s as well.

Had she seen this light in me and tried to bury it under piles of laundry and ash? I tried to flip through the pages to find more about "Lyra" or the "Protector," but the text became blurry again, as if the book knew I wasn't ready for the full truth yet. I was more confused than ever. I was a scribe, a rejected mate, and a Gamma's daughter, how could I also be a legend? “Alyse!

Dahynael Ryan Cygnus. The words sent a chill through me. My hands trembled as I looked at Lyra. “Lyra, why does this book carry the words of past Alphas?

"It’s too sweet. Like rotting fruit." "It’s just the preservative. They used arsenic and lavender back then." I traced a line of text with my finger. The blood of the moon-born shall be stilled only by the earth’s deep silence. "Richard, look. This chapter. It’s titled 'The Severance.' It talks about a cure for the shift-burn."

How could she— My chest ached, my heart hammering with disbelief and fragile hope. Is it really you? After all this time… are you back? ‘Yes. It’s me.’ Chapter 24: Daughter of the Moon Goddess Amelia’s POV My wolf’s voice was bold—a little smug. What, you don’t like that I interrupted your moment with our mate?

How could I possibly look after my pup? I wasn't a qualified mother, nor a qualified mate. I chuckled self-deprecatingly. With a loud slam, the door was shut.

I walked over to the safe and retrieved the Wolfsbane, adding them to a glass of water. Then, I drank it all in one go. My body started to burn. I knew my life had begun its countdown.

The library had become Aaliyah’s sanctuary, though it often felt more like a tomb. She prowled its endless shelves day after day, searching for fragments of knowledge hidden in brittle parchment and dust.
