20. BETRAYAL AND DARKNESS
VALERIA"Really? I thought I heard you murmuring something," she approached me with suspicion."No, I was just thinking out loud. Did you manage to sort things out with your boyfriend?"I descended the steps and found her sitting on the last one, suddenly bursting into tears.Between sobs, she confessed her struggles with her mate and her parents—being the Alpha’s daughter wasn’t easy."Don't be like that. There’s got to be a solution. Don’t you have anyone who supports you? Maybe a sister?""No! Why are you asking me if I have a sister?!" she snapped, lifting her gaze defensively."I mean... Sorry, I didn’t mean to be rude. All of this has me really nervous. And no, I don’t have a sister or anyone else."I nodded, though her reaction felt strangely defensive for such a simple question."Oh no, it’s way too late! My parents will kill me, and the King must be furious searching for you! Let’s go, let’s go now!"She shifted from distress to panic, grabbing my hand and practically draggin
21. WHAT IS THAT MAIDEN?!
VALERIAI had only ever heard of them in children's horror stories.They were almost impossible to find, and nearly no one had survived after seeing them.Beings of pure dark energy and evil—rotting, murderous magic.Its red eyes, like two deep abysses filled with flames, stared at me from that shapeless face, making me tremble in fear.Its body was made of a black mist, with long, dangling strands that hung from every part of it as it advanced toward me.Its arms were far too long, disproportionate, with massive, razor-sharp claws that could slice me clean through.I crawled backward, dragging myself across the ground. I couldn’t feel my legs.My heart was pounding so fast I thought it would stop at any moment.I tried to get up multiple times, failing each attempt.It loomed over me, and through the darkness, I saw with terror as it opened a wide mouth filled with crooked teeth and grinned, making every hair on my body stand on end."AAAHHH!" I screamed, covering my face as the inti
22. SWORN ENEMIES
VALERIA"Boss isn’t going to like this at all.""What did you expect me to do? Pick up that disgusting corpse or stay there waiting for the specter?!""This girl’s lucky—her face is so messed up, even the specter didn’t want her."I could hear the conversation of what seemed to be two men.My whole body felt drained, as if I had pushed beyond my physical limits. I was confused, unable to fully recall what had happened.Adele had tried to deceive me. We fought. That thing appeared, and then…?I was lying across the back of one of my captors, being carried to an unknown location.Even though I was awake, I kept my eyes shut, pretending to be unconscious just to hear more of their conversation."Get her on the boat!"Suddenly, they threw me onto an old boat.I realized I was being taken farther and farther from the King, so I began to fight back with everything I had."So you’re awake now? Ah, you damn woman!""What’s going on?!""She bit me! You’ll pay for that, bitch!"The last thing I
23. REVENGE FOR MY SISTER
VALERIAIt hurt. It hurt so much, like I had shoved my fingers into a burning oven.And honestly, they looked just like that—bleeding and scorched."She's not the one. That idiot girl messed up again! We shouldn't have trusted her to handle this properly!" the vampire growled in frustration, kicking a chair aside.Then, as if realizing his outburst, he calmed himself, carefully returning the stone to its box."We can’t stay here any longer. The Lycan King was sniffing around that pack, and it’s only a matter of time before he finds us," he declared."We still don’t know where this woman came from. She seems insignificant. The Alpha’s daughter died without revealing much. The specter appeared, drawn by the special blood."I felt a small wave of relief.They didn’t know I was Aldric’s personal maid—otherwise, I’d have zero chance of survival.What was this "special blood" they kept mentioning? I had no idea."Should we kill her?""No. Heal her hand and squeeze some coin out of her. Sell
24. AUCTION
ALDRIC“They were looking for a woman who could read what was written on the Altar. Adele tested all the locals and visitors, but we didn’t even know there was anything written there! I did it to protect my family. You would have done the same!”“I would have asked for help, you idiot! Vampires are the most treacherous creatures in existence! What the hell are the Guardians for then?!” I roared, nearly losing control.This was far more serious than I had imagined.“You handed over a sacred relic of our race, deceived innocent women, and were willing to let them access our secrets! Did you honestly think you or your family would walk away unscathed?!”The man kept crying, repeating that he did it for his daughters, but my patience was gone.My priority now was finding out where they had taken Valeria.“Tell me where the vampires are,” I demanded in a deadly voice.“I don’t know exactly. They were always very secretive. I never met their leader. We met in an old cabin near the lake…”SW
25. MY LYCAN
ALDRICI didn’t know how many could be inside the old building, but I entered roaring, ready to cut off heads.Too late—I was already a step behind. It was obvious they had fled in a hurry.They must have realized I was closing in on them.I shifted back into my human form, storming through the dark underground floors, kicking doors open and searching desperately.Corpses littered the ground everywhere.Fools who dared to make deals with vampires always ended up like this.My heart pounded with fear, a feeling I hadn’t experienced in a long time—and even more so when I finally caught her scent.I ran, descending a narrow staircase through a dim hallway, until I reached a massive cell.Feminine scents mingled there, and among them, hers—Valeria's. But she was nowhere to be seen.I spotted a dying body in a filthy corner and approached.It was a blonde woman with a gruesome stomach wound.She wasn’t going to make it.As I knelt closer, I realized this must be the older daughter of that
26. SEDUCTION
ALDRICSeeing Valeria so wounded and vulnerable was breaking my heart while, at the same time, a relentless rage grew inside me.“He” was fighting to break free—to comfort her, to lick her wounds.I could feel him scratching at my mind, trying to take over.Being so close to losing her only reinforced my fears.She could vanish from my world in an instant, never to return.I scanned the scene—the group of warriors, two naked women clinging to each other, trembling in a corner, a mutilated slave, and another lying dead.The one responsible for all this—a Beta wolf, also naked, reeking of sex, fear, and rot.I let out a low warning growl.“No one moves from here, especially you, boss. I've got your scent, and I’ll hunt you down like an animal if you dare take a step away.”The Beta nodded immediately, his red eyes wide with fear, trembling. Not so cocky now.I carried Valeria a bit further from the carnage.Her small body felt so fragile, curled against my massive beastly chest, her arm
27. BITTER CHOCOLATE
ALDRICShe says my name in a whisper, dragging that pink tongue along her upper lip.It’s the first time she’s ever called me by name, and it feels like a damn orgasm just hearing it.She presses her body against my chest, both of us nearly naked, her skin cool yet burning hot at the same time.She inhales my scent, her hands caressing me as her mouth trails down to my nipples, licking them.My cock throbs against her stomach."Valeria… Nmm…"I groan, struggling to keep control. If I lose it now, I’ll hurt her.She’s too wounded.But her touches, her kisses, her intoxicating scent—everything is driving me insane.She grabs my hand and guides it under her dress, between her bare 4ss cheeks, no panties.The invitation is clear, and I’m no saint.I slide both hands lower, pushing her dress up to her waist, squeezing her plump 4ss with a desperate hiss of pleasure, finally indulging in my fantasies.I pull back for just a second, ripping off the damn leaves tied around my waist, leaving m
