Maybe we were not that rich but we were happy or we claimed to be. The only problem was that I was no longer in school. I think I liked it that way, school stress was so hard especially now that I was in the junior secondary.

Vampires were declared legal residents of the kingdom, with protections, with rights, with the specific language that said: these people exist under the law and the law applies to them and to anyone who acts against them. It was not everything. It was very far from everything — there was no reparation yet, no formal mechanism for the families of the people in the lower archive's eleven pages to receive anything beyond the acknowledgment that had already been made. The peace agreement was a framework, not a resolution. The work of actually building a shared world from two peoples who had been on opposite sides of a manufactured war for forty years was going to take years and produce failures

His blood mixed with Ash’s, the water glowed a bit brighter. One by one, they came, Elara’s steady touch, her loyal blood, Ronan, a drop for centuries of duty, Finn, a drop for redemption. Finally, Anya, a mother’s grief and hope, is the most powerful gift. The water was no longer just water, it shone bright and alive, it was a covenant. Ash dripped the liquid onto Liora’s lips, she didn’t wake but he tried again, pleading, massaging her throat, a tiny bit went down.

The darkness swirled, cleared, and became not a reflection, but a window. They saw two great wolves, one with fur like mountain snow, one like shadowed earth, standing where they now knelt. They saw them bow their heads, not to each other, but to the land. A strand of light, pure and silver, extended from the heart of each, meeting in the air above the lake, weaving into a single, radiant cord. The covenant. It was beautiful. It was a feeling of profound peace, of rightness.

Six-fifteen in the evening, the last grey light coming through the high windows, the wet street outside audible through the stone walls when a car passed. I picked it up. The gap was immediate. Not supernatural, not dramatic; the document had the specific quality of something that had been maintained by consensus rather than truth, the way a story everyone agrees to tell eventually starts to feel like fact until someone checks the original. The covenant's language was formal and precise and the space where the goddess's authorization should have been was filled with something that read correctly at a distance and didn't hold up to contact. Nadia had held this document. That landed quietly an

he simply answered, his low voice seeming far away. The sound of water running heightened my already spiked up nerves. He returned, not a minute later, wearing nothing but black tracksuit bottoms, a towel draped across his bare shoulder. His black hair covered his forehead, trickling droplets of water on his exposed skin. The darkness did nothing to conceal the deep contours and planes of his pecs and abs. Faint white lines and dark ink painted his olive skin. His hip bone forming the deep V line seemed to shine starkly against the low light as his pants hung low. I gulped down the lump in my throat. “Whose wedding?” My voice sounded small and pathetic even to my own ears.

Now isn’t the time for a baby when I’m on a freaking destiny quest, and Zane is tasked with stopping a dangerous group of supernaturals. Then Zane’s words come back to me. I won’t be able to leave this realm till I give birth. As much as I don’t want to be on lockdown like that, I know it’s needed. This realm can only be entered or left by someone of the coven. The coven members can’t betray the coven. Zane explained it once. There is some type of loyal blood bond that makes it impossible to betray the coven or Death. If you try, you die before you can even get away with it. With a target painted on my back, I have to stay here.

He poured a clear, chilled water into each, a simple gesture of truce. No scotch, William said, turning to her. We need clear heads. We are now working together, Mimi. Not as employer and employee, but as co conspirators. This is not about the money anymore. This is about survival. If my mother finds another flaw, the resulting scandal will ruin us both.

Lira whispered in my mind. “Well, we are waiting…” Sera snapped, and I smirked. Bitch. “There is a big dam recently built in Velmoria Kingdom. Alpha Caleb built it to prevent all of us from accessing water. If we break it, we can restore the forest too. Water is life,” I said. They all looked at me with wide eyes—shock and amazement. “Brilliant idea!” Alpha Caesar stood up and applauded. Sera sneered, and I smirked.

The envelope rested in Amara's hands. It weighed almost nothing. Yet it felt heavier than every secret she had uncovered. The room waited. Not for a command. For a decision. The Custodian broke the silence. "The Covenant has never forced anyone." "It only invites." Justice Sani frowned. "And if she refuses?" "Then the Repository remains sealed." Nathan looked up from his laptop. "And Protocol Ashes destroys every original record." Victor lowered his head. "The truth survives only in memory."
