“But they wouldn’t last the night.” My throat went dry. “Last the night?” Her blush deepened, and she bit her lip. “They say the king is… a monster in bed. Not just skilled, but insatiable. His stamina is inhuman, and his appetites are—” she lowered her voice even further, trembling. “his appetites are shocking. He… breaks women.” I stared at her, unable to breathe. “So the Trials were created to prepare concubines to withstand him. To see if they can handle his… hunger. Some collapse from exhaustion, others get hurt. I heard once… the daughter of a priest snapped her spine before morning.”

Everyone went silent because the Lunar Trial hadn't been invoked in over a century and most thought it was just a legend. It required both mates to undergo three tests of control desire and sacrifice with failure meaning death for both parties. "The trial is brutal," Isaac warned. "You would have to prove your bond serves a purpose beyond your own desires and that your mating would strengthen rather than weaken pack law." "What are the tests exactly?" I asked even though I already knew I would agree to anything that gave us a chance. "The first tests your control when faced with your mate in the peak of mating fever," Ruth explained.

He grunted as he took the document to which he signed without fault. “You’re right.” She muttered as he pushed it back over. She took a deep breath as she stared at the empty line clearly calling out to her.This was it. She was about to sell her soul, her body, her dignity, for a sum that could change her life forever. And so she did, signed the papers in the blink of an eye. “Perfect.” The lawyer clapped his hands, “Mr Ashford, Miss Heathrow. By the signage of this document, I can pronounce you a newly wedded couple. I would say kiss the bride if this was under much better—

When he ended the call his face had lost all color. “Adrian moved the timeline. He has informed the board that if you are not pregnant by Day Ninety, the marriage is void, the prenup dissolves, and he assumes interim control as CEO.” I stared at him. “Day Ninety is less than three months from now.” His voice was flat. “There is also a package downstairs. From him. Concerning your father.” We went together. The box was small and wrapped in dark velvet. Inside lay a single finger, still wearing Mateo Rivera’s wedding ring. The note was brief.

“D*mn. They and the person in the stone chamber are from the same world.” Alex’s heart skipped a beat. Earlier, he still wondered if there were aborigines here.

I swallowed hard Maren raised her hand slightly and began listing them, her voice ringing through the chamber: “She must pass…. The Trial of Strength – proving she can hold her own against pack warriors. The Trial of Endurance – surviving the harsh northern elements and harsh powers of the enchanters . The Trial of the lust where she is to pleasure herself before you the Alpha. The Trial of the Marking … earning the pack’s mark, binding herself fully to Velkorin.” I could feel my heart hammering in my chest. Each trial sounded impossible. I had barely survived the training Kaelen forced me into yesterday, and now this? My hands curled into fists at my sides.

"Dorian, I know I told you I wouldn't compel you to do something against your will. And I won't. But I just wish to persuade you. Won't you at least undergo the trials of the Underworld for the sake of Amelia ? Even if it's not to brag that you acquired the Tooth of the Moon Goddess?" I hesitated, unsure of what to say.
