she said sharply, stepping forward. The omega jolted, his face pale. For a flicker of a moment, his gaze was not his own as his pupils dilated wide, a fevered gleam stretching his smile too thin. “I serve the Serpent,” he hissed. Before she could react, he lunged. Not with strength, he was only an omega but with a frenzy that chilled her blood. His hands clawed for her throat. Instinct roared to life, shadows curling at her fingertips as she shoved him back with a force that cracked the stone wall.

And in that suspended moment, the blood flared. First, it glowed a dull red—but red sharpened to white-hot brilliance. The silver bowl cracked as smoke burst upward. It coalesced, thick and writhing, into a living serpent of magic and fury. Its hood flared as it hissed for release, molten with symbols that glowed golden where they brushed the stone. The serpent struck out, but slammed into the far wall of the dungeon. Concrete crackled as burning runes blossomed in its wake. Raya’s lungs froze. She felt her pulse pound, the rhythm of history bending around her.

The black hole moved, and a pair of silver eyes on it opened. The Grand Serpent revealed himself as he descended from the Vortex, slithering down. He moved in a terrifying calm, as if trying to sneak in to the world unnoticed despite his colossal splendor. Each of his black scales were men's most feared mountains and his eyes were of shimmering silver seas. He did not have nostrils like snakes do, as there was no amount of air could be enough for such creature to breathe on. Truly, a creature born beyond of what was possible and what the universe allowed it to.

she whispered, stepping closer, reaching into the gloom. The shadow startled, curling tighter with trembling anguish. But the voice — familiar yet distant — held steady, trembling with raw emotion. From the darkness, a shape stirred, folding itself into form. The serpent slithered forward, scales glinting cold and sharp. Her eyes blazed with that ruthless devotion — Riri.

Part of being a predator species made every flavor of flesh and blood translate on her tongue. The sweetness was the flavor of demon; the salt was the flavor of siren. She sighed with pleasure. Serena tasted so good. She drank deeply from the Luna and licked over the wound when she reached the amount needed for the spell. Reggie hadn’t really even noticed that Rao was now holding Serena up. Serena looked like she’d just had a really good feeding. Her lids were heavy and there was a drunken smile on her lips. Rao looked a little grumpy, but Reggie brushed it aside.

The priest announced and the king made his way to him. A priest handed him a golden dagger and the king slit opened the middle of his palm with it. The priest held the chalice under the bleeding palm to collect the blood drops and the moment the blood touched the liquid, it turned scarlet red. "Now, I summon the female Seraphina, to give her blood to join the regal bond of the blood."

He stood in front of me, one hand braced beside me, the other against the mirror at my back. He looked at me, voice barely above a whisper. "Selene, what the hell has gotten into you?" I turned away. He wouldn't let me. His fingers caught my chin and turned my face back. "Talk." My eyes stung. I clenched my teeth to keep from falling apart. "I told you. It's none of your business." "Then whose business is it? Hm?" He stepped closer, his knee pressing between my legs. "That serpentfolk who just came of age? He's going to help you through your heat?"

Wolves, their eyes vicious and cold. "Well, well." The one in front licked his fangs. "Victor lets his precious little mate wander around alone?" My brain short-circuited, but instinct hit before thought did. I slammed the gas. "Grab her." "The serpents killed our brothers. Your life pays for theirs." Several of them lunged at once. The car rocked violently. A fist smashed through the side window, shattering it instantly. A clawed hand reached in, swiping at my throat.

Lucas aimed for the head, his sword cutting through the flames, while Elena used her remaining strength to guide their movements, her magic sensing the serpent’s weak points. The creature let out a final, ear-splitting roar as Lucas delivered the killing blow, his blade piercing its skull. The serpent collapsed, its flames extinguishing as it dissolved into ash. The pedestal shattered, releasing a surge of dark energy that shook the entire chamber. Elena collapsed, clutching her chest as the remnants of the Heart’s power surged through her. “Elena!” Lucas caught her before she hit the ground. “Stay with me.” “I’m fine,” she whispered, though her voice was weak.

Boom! Suddenly, violent explosions went off. It felt as though the entire world had fallen into chaos. Dark energy, laden with malice, permeated the surroundings, creating a chilling atmosphere. Even the serpent couldn’t help but feel a shiver of unease. It was clear to the serpent that Adrian had killed countless beings, and his aura bore the stain of his deeds. "Hmph! So you’re nothing more than a heartless demon.” The serpent sneered coldly. “You think you’re some kind of righteous warrior? After slaughtering so many innocents, perhaps killing you would earn me some divine merit.”
