GILDEON

He had always known Arah could shut out the world when she needed to focus, just as she had a minute ago. She’d remained oblivious even as he parked the car and walked through the door.

But her picking the lock on his study had caught him off guard. This was new. A black box lay sprawled on the floor, its contents a jumble of instruments. Where did she get them?

Just when he thought he had Arah all figured out, she found new ways to surprise him.

But this time, she’d crossed a line, and he wasn’t about to let it slide.

“I’m ready,” Arah said, a bold expression etched on her pretty face. Her chest was out, deliberately drawing his attention to the curves of her breasts, their buds poking hard against her nightdress.

Lust surged through him, his pulse racing in anticipation. The thought of stripping her and making that tight body squirm under his touch made his cock twitch.

He could take her right then and there, but he restrained himself. He had promised not to touch her until

  • MAD END'S DECEPTION   278 - Maybe We've Already Changed It

    ARAHThe first thing she revealed was her memory in the Crescent Tower... how her father had tortured Aktaeon and Nalini, all to force them to give up the Dragon’s location. Recounting it had been just as hard as remembering the state Siegfrid and Irmeena were in when they died.Gildeon hadn’t said a word the whole time. His elbows rested on his thighs, his head buried in his clasped hands.Her heart raced, sensing the weight of his silence, the heat radiating off his body as if he were barely holding something in. And even though she wanted to touch him, to comfort him somehow, she didn’t. It felt as if she did, he’d explode.“They were my comrades,” he said quietly. The pain in his voice was subtle, yet she felt it in her bones. “They were my friends.”She shut her eyes tightly, sharing his grief in silence.“We knew they’d been captured,” he added. “We prepared ourselves for the worst. But we never saw their bodies.”

  • MAD END'S DECEPTION   277 - It's About You, Gildeon

    GILDEONShock rippled through his chest. A memory seized him—the young sylph girl cloaked in black, scarf drawn high. The girl whose life he’d saved. The girl whose heart he’d shattered with a single lie.He stared at Arah, studying every detail of her face. His gaze lingered on her eyes—those same fierce blue eyes. All this time… how had he not seen it?He also wondered why Ghulik hadn’t recognized her scent. Then it struck him that Ghulik and the sylph girl hadn’t shared the same space for long in the first place. And the first time they had, Arah had been kept inside a crate marked with a sigil that masked her scent. It was also possible that time and newfound power had altered her scent entirely.Back at the Mad End’s Wall, Gildeon hadn’t cared about Arah’s past. From the moment he first laid eyes on her, she had only been the sigilmaker his army sought. She’d been the solution to their dwindling numbers.And to him—she was the

  • MAD END'S DECEPTION   276 - The Way I See You

    ARAHThey returned to the reception without saying a word to each other. It felt as though an invisible weight lingered in the space between them.Arah’s mind was spinning. So many thoughts, so many emotions, all tangled together. But one kept rising above the rest, refusing to let her go.Nick had died. And she had brought him back.Her subconscious had somehow guided her into making the Resurrection Sigil work. She could still feel the phantom sting of the sigil needle piercing her palm, each prick burning into her skin. But as soon as the sigil’s purpose was fulfilled, the mark vanished. Her body had healed over the wound completely, leaving no trace. Not even a smear of blood used as ink remained.Sweet music played softly in the background, a romantic melody lilting through the air. All eyes were on the bride and groom swaying in the center of the dance floor. Mabel’s smile was radiant, her cheeks glowing, and Arah could see t

  • MAD END'S DECEPTION   275 - Memories I've Regained

    GILDEONHe ignited his dragon sight, and the mark flared in a brilliant blue glow. The true Resurrection Sigil—real, alive, working before his eyes. For a moment, he could hardly believe it.His gaze lifted to Arah. Determination and desperation etched her face. She hadn’t regained all her memories—he was sure of that—but something had returned. Enough to unlock this buried knowledge and wield her power again.He needed to know how much she remembered. The warrior in him urged caution. All he knew of her past was that she was a powerful sigilmaker.Which had turned out not to be a rumor at all. Arah had proven it on multiple occasions. Until now, he still couldn’t believe she had slain both Zylas in dragon form and Drusden.An ordinary sylph wouldn’t have been able to do that.So now, watching her true sigilmaking in action, he couldn’t help but wonder:What if Arah reverted t

  • MAD END'S DECEPTION   274 - It Was Araheen

    ARAHThe world shifted around her. Suddenly, Arah found her hand clamped around Nick’s throat.A loud gasp tore from her lips as awareness slammed back into her. She released him instantly, stumbling backward just as his body crumpled to the ground with a heavy thud.Her whole body trembled. Her breaths were shallow.She could hear waves crashing from behind her and smelled the sharp, familiar scent of salt and sand. Dizzy and disoriented, she spun around, trying to place herself, and realized they were back at the shore near the wedding venue.Back in the present.Her eyes dropped to her feet, and her heart stopped.Nick lay sprawled across the sand, his body unnaturally still. His suit was sprinkled with grains of sand where he’d fallen, and his skin had already turned a pale shade. His eyes were closed, mouth slightly parted. There was no rise in his chest. No movement.No life.Arah dropped to her kn

  • MAD END'S DECEPTION   273 - Every Path Fails

    ARAHShe saw Araheen standing at the crest of a hill, her gaze locked on the chaos unfolding below. Flames licked the edges of the camps, casting a flickering, sinister glow across the steppe surrounding the garrison. The night air pulsed with the thrum of magic and the heavy scent of scorched earth and churned soil.A few feet away, two eagles perched in silence. Their wings fluttered now and then, breaking the stillness with soft, sharp screeches. Their calm presence was a contrast to the violence echoing across the plains—clashing steel, whistling arrows, and the guttural roars of warriors locked in combat.Arah could feel it all. The spirit of the battle was seeping into her skin, winding through her chest, curling tightly around her gut.They were on a battlefield. The salamanders and sylphs were fighting.Araheen wasn’t here alone.A male sylph sat on a tree stump nearby, calmly polishing his longsword. His dark blue h
