Alpha's Regret
Though he had brought her here, the idea of this ritual—of what it would take—unsettled him more than he cared to admit.
The sorceress smiled, but it wasn’t a kind smile. It was the smile of someone who knew things, dark things. “I have most of what I need already, Alpha,” she began, her voice raspy, like dry leaves rustling in the wind. “But there are a few specific elements that must be gathered.”
Damien crossed his arms over his chest. “What elements?”
The sorceress leaned forward slightly, her eyes narrowing as if she relished what she was about to say. “I need alpha blood,” she said, her words cutting through the air. “Since the ritual is for your daughter, your blood will do.”
