Nemesis Of The Lycan Triplets night stroll
SAGEThe night pressed close, quiet in that eerie, fragile way only fear can create. People had turned in early again. They hadn't left their lives to chance, or information, which was accurate really—vampires couldn't come in unless invited.Even with the magic dome holding strong over this part of the lycans' region, the air throbbed with the kind of silence that comes from shared dread. Doors bolted. Curtains drawn. Fires put out early. The vampires had made sure the entire kingdom slept like prey. Had made sure that rumors of their prowess had gone ahead of them. It was all according to the plan. Make the kingdom quake in its boots, to the point of surrender, if push came to shove.A kingdom, about to be destroyed…And here I was, strolling beside its king.Adam walked at my left, hands in his pockets, boots crunching over the stone path, maintaining the same silence. His energy brushed against mine, calm and restless all at once—like steady water trembling under a storm's appr

SAGEThe candle flickered beside me, its flame swaying like it, too, was trying to resist sleep.On another night, I would have pinched it off, would have let go of the magic that had conjured it into existence, and sleep off too. But tonight was different. I was restless. I felt inadequate. Somehow, I felt unprepared for the task ahead, a task which was about to be upended by Darius and his group of ancients.If they came—and I was sensing that they would—I wanted to be ready. Although, how I would fight off a group of ancients, when one was enough to drain me of my magic, was beyond me.It was why I let the candle burn. Let its herby smoke slither into my nostrils; something that was supposed to calm me down.Supposed to..: because I couldn't stay calm.I exhaled loudly, looked at the ceiling, thenI dragged my gaze back to the spellbook, jaw clenched, breath softening as I forced myself—again—to focus. Power. I needed more of it. Real power. My own. Something I could rely on if El

No one should have been in my quarters at this hour. The whole floor was silent–the kind of deep, controlled quiet that came only after every guard changed post and every unnecessary torch was extinguished.So when I heard a voice behind me, low and too damn casual, the muscles in my shoulders tightened before I even turned."Where are you going?"Noah stood in the doorway, arms folded, posture relaxed in that way that always hid calculation. The lantern behind him cast a thin rim of gold around his silhouette, making him look like a judgment sitting there with arms crossed.I exhaled through my nose. "For a walk."His brows rose. "In the middle of the night?""I needed air." I adjusted my cloak. "What are you doing in my quarters?"He shrugged like it was nothing. "Door was open.""That doesn't answer the question." My voice came out harder than I intended.He tilted his head, studying me with irritating amusement. "You didn't answer mine either."I moved past him, brushing the edge

ADAMI had been trying to ignore the thought all morning, but it kept circling back like a persistent storm cloud.Sage and Darius.There was something between those two—something sharp-edged, hidden, threaded far too deeply for my liking. Not the softness of affection or the childish cling of old friendship. No. This was something darker. Purposeful. Bound by secrets I wasn't allowed to touch.One of the contestants had reported it to me just before sunrise: He had seen them vault the fence in the dead of night.Vault the fence. Like two shadows. Like two people with something to hide.Where had they gone? When had they returned? How long had they been sneaking around without my knowledge? I had dispatched my men the moment I heard the report. Their message came back not long ago—quiet, irritating, inconclusive:"Sage is in her house.""Darius is in his house."As though that solved anything.My jaw tightened. What were those two planning? What were they in together?And why, in al

I wasn't listening to Darius.I could hear him—his voice flowing beside me as we cut through the brush, his words rising and falling like an annoying chant—but I wasn't absorbing any of it. My mind was far ahead of my body, racing down a darker corridor entirely. I stepped over roots, brushed aside hanging vines, and let my limbs move on instinct alone.He was scolding me. Again."…Makeh could have told us more if you had just stayed," he was saying, his boots crunching against leaves as he tried to keep up with my long strides. "You storming out like that accomplished nothing, cara. We should have pressed her harder… asked the right questions. There are things she was holding back and you know it—"I tuned him out deliberately.The forest shifted around us, alive in that heavy silent way only ancient places could manage. My senses were open and alert, stretched tight across the gloom like fine threads of wire. Every insect click, every dead leaf crushed underfoot, every distant trem

Makeh's words did nothing to reassure me.A replacement. The word curdled in my stomach the longer it sat there.Not heir. Not a successor. Replacement. Something meant to be slotted in when I cracked beyond repair.My mouth pulled into a crooked sneer before I even realized it, the expression carving itself onto my face like instinct.So that was it.All this time—the suffering, the blood, the crawling back from death's throat more than once—and the goddess still kept a spare like a broken shield tucked behind her altar. Just in case.I felt something sour swell inside my ribs. Something ugly. Something dangerously close to grief. I masked it the only way I knew how. With derision."Well," I scoffed, folding my arms. "That's comforting. Nothing says divine confidence like a backup plan with eyes and a pulse. Also gives me peace to go about my other business."Makeh did not scold me. She only watched me with a quiet, uncomfortable patience. "You shouldn't dwell on it," she said. "Your
