His muscles flexed under his tight shirt and his jaw tightened. "Do you really believe that the only reason I keep you here is because of your parents? I am Damion Night I don't do anything for anyone unless it benefits me and my family. Think about that the next time you want to kill one of my guards and try and run away." With that he turned his back on me and stalked out of the basement.

he spat. I felt a sharp pain in my heart as he called me a whore. Tears streamed down my eyes, my chest tightening with anguish as his words pierced my heart like shards of glass. The singular noun he gave me crushed my spirit, leaving me feeling utterly betrayed and shattered. Alaric failed me, and I didn't want to blame him for it. He took me to the hotel; how did I end up with a stranger with him beside me?

Capture me like an animal. He attempted to get up, and his legs let him. He took a glance at his clothes. His dick was visible outside of his trousers. It appalled him. He was going at a snail’s pace, fighting for what he so much desired. Javier knew well that if Sandra gets her way with him, he would have to bid farewell to his little family. He knew Gabriella would never understand, even if someone drugged him. He didn’t have an option, therefore he had to fight, even if it was a lost battle.

I pleaded to him once more as that tear finally streamed down from my eyes. He thrusts once, gingerly. He thrusts again, and he's gone, lost in the swirling abyss. For seconds, he exists in that soaring, excruciating perfection. It's just this, only this—lost in himself, an entity devoid of identity, obliterated. There's no trace of Arik, only a frenzied essence, and I believe I'll remember this more than his true self... his personality. I heard him gasp in awe. I was descending into an ecstatic, scorching vulnerability, unraveling, lost, and undone. It felt like a growing, simmering fire within me.

The next second, it unleashed hundreds of terrifying heptagold sword energy that tore through the space between them. Upon seeing the situation, Tobias countered and recalled his Soul Devouring Nail to form a protective barrier. The repeated boom of sword energy echoed through the air as the nail shielded it. Uzair took a deep breath after observing the situation. His initial plan to partner with Sian and eliminate Severin first before claiming the Fire Phoenix Snow Lotus seemed like a rather foolish endeavor. Still, he was reconsidering that option after seeing how resilient Severin was.

The torches burned brighter. ‎ ‎“They taught us,” Dawn continued, “that darkness isn’t the enemy. Fear is. Hate is. And the cure is love. Choice. Light, even when it’s hard.” ‎ ‎She looked up at the stars, as if she could see us. ‎ ‎“Thank you, Talia. Thank you, Rex. For choosing love. For passing the flame.” ‎ ‎The pack howled then, a sound that shook the earth, a chorus of gratitude and joy that rose into the night and beyond.

I whispered. "That is the God of the Demons," Teniv explained as he took a stand beside me. "He'll be the one I'm battling, Luna, Prime. Good luck keeping your people safe. I can't take on Saabi, but that one, I should at least be able to stop for a little while." As he strode forth and away from me, I shuddered. This battle might not just be the end of our conflict, but many lives were about to be lost and I wouldn't be able to do anything for them.

Almost immediately, something in her expression changed, as if she sensed there was still more. “But what else, Alex?” Her voice, soft yet urgent, reflected her cautious nature and her need to know everything—to understand. She couldn’t relax without the whole truth, no matter how terrifying it might be. Alex fell silent for a moment, staring at the ground as if the words were hard to say. Finally, he sighed and lifted his gaze, his seriousness making it clear that what he was about to say wasn’t something he had wanted to share. “Last night, I had an unexpected visitor,” he murmured, keeping his eyes fixed on Scarlett. “Zafira.
