The portal grows wider and taller until the bow of an ancient wooden boat juts through. The ferryman, Caron, an old bearded man with a brimless hat, steps out of the portal. He lowers a rickety plank from the boat onto the hardwood. Pan winces when he sees water from the River Styx stain his conference room floor, but doesn’t intervene. Caron turns around and holds his hand out. A woman reaches through the portal and takes his hand so she can walk securely down the plank.

They deserve what is coming to them. Ahh, the voice was back; the only difference now was that it seemed to be feeding my darkest desires instead of trying to dilute them. I looked into Perseus's eyes as they moved down my soddened clothes. My drenched shirt left nothing to the imagination as it stuck to me like a second skin. My onyx hair was soaked, and water droplets latched onto my eyelashes as the overhead shower continued to pour down on us. Was Perseus really a monster, or was he just a confused and lost soul like me?

The grove, sensing our resolve, lit up even brighter, casting away the last of Nyxos's shadows, and guiding us towards our inevitable confrontation and the fate of our world. As we prepared to depart from the grove, a sudden, icy gust of wind swept through, extinguishing the ethereal glow and plunging us into darkness. The once tranquil stream began to churn violently, its waters darkening to an inky black. From the depths of the stream, a spectral hand emerged, slowly reaching towards the surface. It held an ancient amulet, radiating a menacing power. The amulet, known in legends as the 'Eclipse Stone', was believed to possess the power to either save or doom Meranthia.

The convoy surged forward in a tidal wave of roaring engines, flames, headlights, and men riding straight toward hell. Ashley didn’t look back. None of them did. Tonight was the beginning of the end. And the Steel Vipers were coming.

“Wait a minute, why is your face so red? You didn’t catch a fever, did you?” Her concern grew and she reached out to check Stellar’s forehead, but it didn’t feel like Stellar was having a fever. “I’m fine, Mary. I’m just going upstairs to rest.” Without waiting for more questions, Stellar hurried up to her room, shutting the door behind her. Leaning against the wooden frame, she let out a long, shaky breath. What on earth was she thinking? It was just an accident. That was all. … Meanwhile, at the club. After requesting Dawn to serve him, Percy ordered bottle after bottle, drowning himself in alcohol until he was completely wasted.

None of it matters. Then, her. My Rhea. Her hand breaks the surface just ahead. I swim with everything I’ve got, my lungs burning, power building beneath my skin. Stormfire. It answers. Lightning crackles down my arms into the water, illuminating the flood in blinding pulses. The storm is mine. I reach her. I grab her wrist. And then, I see Lyss. Farther downstream, clinging to a broken branch, her mouth is open in a silent scream. Her eyes find mine.

Lexon's fangs brushed against Jace's neck as Lexon pressed his tongue against the wound once more, making sure the pulsing vein was under it. As soon as he felt the pulse, he bit down, his fangs sinking into Jace's skin. Jace cried out at the pain when Lexon's fangs sunk into his neck. Tears instantly filled his eyes from both the pain and his fears. This time it's not a fear of dying, it's the fear from the memories that are flooding back, as he feels the painful burning sensation in his neck. Tears stream down his cheeks as he squeezes his eyes close and sees the knife in their hand again.

Celeste (out loud, to the orchard, to the sea, to whatever gods are listening): “Come at me with your floods and your tridents, fish-dad. I’ve got family that’s 83% seawater and 100% done with your drama.” Dacia actually laughs this time (real, bright, proud). Dacia: *Keep that attitude. You’re going to need it.* The tide rises higher. Class is just getting started. And I’ve got a new cheat code: Turns out blood really is thicker than water… but it still knows how to swim. STEAM & SHADOW Book 4: The Mountains That Kneel

Lilith POV Walking alongside a riverbank, I was barely keeping up with the brothers they were way ahead of me, and they weren't slowing down, “This is how you treat visitors?” I spoke loud enough for them to hear, “Sorry— we were just discussing, we got carried away,” Damon apologized, “I can see that, but we've been walking for what seems like hours, where exactly are we going?” “We have to walk until we find the ferryman, or he finds us, it's our only way across river Styx,” Stefan mumbled,

"You're making Daddy very unhappy. Time to come home, princess." Of course. When my father's entire pack failed, he unleashed his monsters. The Sterlings—his oldest allies, the kind of men whispered about in stories meant to frighten pups. They were...the worst nightmares to ever exist. Mateless for years, hungry for power, and men who dominated both days and night of this continent. The two most dangerous predators to ever exist—The Sterling fucking Twins. I had no chance. None. But I wasn't giving up without blood. I darted left, sprinting for the bridge—but Jax's car swung ahead, blocking the road. Ashton closed the rear. All that waited beyond was the river's black water—and I couldn't s
