The thought clung to my mind like morning dew, beautiful but destined to evaporate under the heat of reality. The grand dining hall of The Golden Compass gleamed under the honeyed light of crystal chandeliers, their facets catching and splintering the glow into a thousand tiny stars that danced across marble columns. The air tasted of roasted meats, fragrant spices, and the lingering notes of expensive perfumes – all undercut by the unmistakable scent of power. Subtle. Intoxicating. Dangerous. "Breathe," Theo whispered, his lips barely moving as we moved between the tables. "They're just people."

Lisa glanced at my bleeding, empty chest, a swift flash of cruel satisfaction passing through her eyes. "It doesn't hurt anymore... It's just..." She frowned, covering her mouth and nose, her voice trembling with a hint of crying, "After getting pregnant, the smell of blood makes me feel so sick, I want to throw up... Anders, can you make her leave? I'm so scared when I see her..." She is indeed beautiful, putting on a pitiful pose. A blue glow flickers at her fingertips, and her bright red nails are strung with light blue crystals, making her look even more vivid.

The pain down there had also reduced, she was barely feeling any sting. She dropped the fabric on the table and took her time to gladly appreciate the beauty of the space. Athena knew how to make things perfect. It screamed elegance....total luxury. It made her stop and wonder. Was Athena really from a rogue pack? They wouldn't know elegance in this way unless they were really huge and powerful too, enough to shake attack from other clans. She walked to the beautiful designed box at the end of the room and touched it. Light dust dirtied it. She blew air from her mouth and didn't wait for it to get totally clean, before she tried to open it.

PLAYLIST FOR THE CHAPTER= Grow again by Abilene MAERWYNN POV Asterin and Astrea dressed me in a gown that looked like it was spun from the sun itself. A river of gold, shifting with every breath, it flowed around my body in soft ripples. The dress caught the lamplight, throwing bright sparks of color across the marble walls—blues, silvers, and molten honey. The bodice clung close, cut low and sweeping into a plunging neckline, but it never felt vulgar. It felt… powerful. Like wearing moonlight and sunrise together.

“Are you the mother goddess?” “I am just a handmaiden. And I know, because you know. Pawn to E4. It is your move.” Aislen looked at the board game. She was playing as the black pieces. They were… different. Leaning closer in order to examine them, she saw that they were people, ornately dressed in the Rococo style. They moved within their little squares, adjusting their clothing, fluttering their fans flirtatiously, bowing and curtseying to each other like grand courtiers about to dance at a ball. Their faces and forms seemed to shift. She saw her face, her mates’, and their friends and allies. She saw Stella’s face amongst them.

He had become so accustomed to the scent of fear that he now found himself a little thrown. He also found that he was becoming painfully hard as a raw, basic hunger surged through him, beating at his self-control. She was freakishly beautiful, beautiful in that in-your-face, sophisticated kind of way, but not just that. With her long black hair and hazel eyes, she possessed that natural, all-woman, all-real beauty that was dabbling with his mind. And although she was slender, she was blessed with mouth-watering curves that had all sorts of fantasies playing around in his head.

"We've got a new face." Four heads turned. Gia was the first to rise. Her beauty was loud—curves wrapped in crimson velvet, with hair like molten gold and a mouth made for trouble. She moved like fire, slow and consuming, and her gaze skimmed over Aurora like a critic judging a rare gem. Kim and Ariana followed. Ariana wore rhinestones on her collarbone like armor, her cheekbones sharp enough to slice. Kim was quieter, darker, with a gaze that could flay a man alive or lull him into a dream.

Only the one who looked scared, helpless, yet strong, and disgustingly pretty that he had almost broken into the dungeon bars and pinned her down earlier could satiate this hunger that he couldn’t explain. A mate he wasn’t willing to claim, but her body, he wanted. “Leave, Athena. I’m hungry to kill. Don’t fall victim.”

Still not whole. But no longer easy prey. She lifted her camera and took one photo of the hunger wearing stolen holy faces. The flash stripped them away. A system prompt felt like temptation, not instruction. The court lamps hummed with trapped blue fire. Nothing in the room felt decorative; every object could become evidence, weapon, offering, or witness before the next breath.

"LONG LIVE THE LYCAN KING!!!" Normally I'd bask in that. Usually I'd grin, throw a wave, maybe flex a few muscles for dramatic effect. But not this time. Not when the image of a girl with messy, midnight hair and stubbornly bright yellow eyes kept elbowing its way into the front of my brain like she owned the place. Nyx. Filthy as hell, bruised, starving, shoved in an attic like a shameful secret—and still beautiful. Not the dainty, polished noble beauty. No. She had the kind of beauty that survives fires and walks out of explosions.
