They barely knew each other, but he never wanted to be separated from her. They stepped into his room, the door closing softly behind them. Shaun watched his mate glide around his almost bare room, looking around. Her eyes stopped on two large drawings on the wall. Both were cities from a view that encompassed the entire city. The first one was the Nightstar Pack. The other was a city in snow-capped mountains. She looked at him, questioning him with her eyes. “It’s the two places I can call home. I drew the first view I had of Nightstar; the other is the last view I had of my original home.” “You drew them?”

How can he still be good to me after what I did to him? I looked at him and my eyes went down on his neck and noticed a small and shiny object on his neck. "You're still wearing it," I whispered but just enough for him to hear it. He hummed, "It was a gift from you… the best I ever received." That made me smile. I reached for his necklace and ran my fingers on the pendant. It was a lion pendant necklace. Lion 'coz his zodiac sign is Leo. I bought it with my own savings. I did some extra work on their farm to earn some money without him being suspicious. I even sold my paintings to my teachers.

She reaches for her handbag on the seat, then she pulls out a medium-sized book from it. The book looks old, and the cover has little tears around it. I take the book from her. “Thank you,” I mutter, flipping it open at once, and the first image I see is that of the first Alpha king to arrive in Las Vegas. “Herbert Howler,” I read aloud. There is something fishy about his looks, but I cannot place it, and I can swear I have seen him somewhere. Scrolling further, I see the faces of the next kings. There is Hector, Hudson, Hunter... etc.

The survivors nearby watched nervously. Waiting. Hoping Renn would explain. Instead he whispered a single sentence. "The legends were true." A knot formed in my stomach. "What legends?" Renn stared toward the distant horizon. Toward the thirteen rising fortresses. Toward the giants awakening beneath the earth. "The Keeper." The word carried weight. Ancient weight. "What keeper?" The old scholar swallowed. "The Keeper of the Key." The world seemed to grow colder. Even the fire beside us dimmed slightly. As though reality itself was listening.

If tears were the price of divinity, then let the night remember mine. END OF BOOK 1💜

The city lights dimmed. The alarms echoed endlessly. Then she looked at them. Not as strangers. Not as successors. As heirs. Then she whispered: "I'm running out of time." The meaning hit everyone instantly. The First Guardian wasn't merely protecting the seal. She was the seal. And if she failed...... the Legacy would be free. Then suddenly...... a deafening roar erupted from beneath the city. The ground split open. A massive wave of crimson energy shot upward from the depths. The entire Lost City shook.

Chapter 21: Arlo’s POV – Outside Currents Arlo shoved his notebook into his bag as the economics lecture ended, the professor’s voice still echoing about market distortions and hidden costs. The irony wasn’t lost on him. His own life felt like one giant hidden cost right now—living in Nikolai’s penthouse, kissing him, letting those careful touches linger longer each night.

Then the Keeper appeared beside them. Then: "Before the Crowns." Silence. Then: "Before the Throne." Then: "Before the prison." The city shimmered. Alive. Thriving. Perfect. God. No. Fair. Absolutely not. Reasonable honestly. Then Rowan pointed. Then: "Hold on." Pause. Then: "If this place existed..." Then: "What happened to it?" The Keeper's smile disappeared. Immediately. Then: "The same thing that happens to every civilization." Silence. Then:

From the second dice, she got the next number—the page in the book. And there it was. It had even been marked ‘Lost Cities of the One World.’ Ilyria wanted to laugh but she was too relieved. She didn’t know how much time had passed but she felt an urgent need to hurry. She removed the page from the book, closed it and put everything back as it had been. For her father. She made her way back down the passageway, thinking of how she would love to spend days in her father’s chambers, looking over all his papers, trying to know the man and not just the fragmented memory of a father that she had.

The lengths that we would go for each other had been set in stone. I was sure now, that regardless of anything that could or would happen in the future, I would always have her by my side.
