Chapter 069Lucia watched the sunset from her balcony as the warm golden sun shadowed the city streets. Everything seemed peaceful.The curse on the Blood Moon vanished, which brought her the first glimmer of hope after a long period of darkness.She understood the truth even though her mind tried to deny it. The shadows remained hidden in the darkness until they found their opportunity to attack.The intense battle against Kalyndria ended with victory, but Lucia couldn't suppress her sense that something worse than their previous encounters was approaching.After dedicating everything to defeating Kalyndria, she faced the challenge ahead since the Blood Moon faded into the past.The sound of footsteps behind her made her turn. Auron approached with his usual unchanging expression.Your thoughts about this matter still occupy your mind. Auron spoke with a gentle yet perceptive tone.Lucia released a deep breath while her hands gripped the railing tightly. “I can’t help it. The curse h
Chapter 070Lucia positioned herself at the cliff's edge, where the wind blew through her hair as she observed the endless shifting horizon.Nero stood beside her, providing a reassuring presence on which she could depend.The indescribable feeling of being here with Nero remained despite all their hardships and losses. She felt at peace with him but she understood their path would continue without end.Nero's gentle yet firm tone interrupted her thoughts. “Are you ready?”Lucia paused to breathe deeply before she turned her gaze toward him. The darkness of his eyes sent a message full of dedication and pure love.She spoke those words with heavy purpose because she felt completely prepared for this moment.The curse that had trapped them since their first encounter continued to link them through their endless battles and love and loss cycle for multiple years.The Blood Moon's curse had been lifted, so their connection became unbreakable, They would confront whatever the future broug
Chapter 071Everything appeared too peaceful in that room following the intense commotion that had just passed. Lucia occupied the table's edge while her fingers followed the map's border, which she had studied for countless hours, yet her thoughts remained distant.Despite breaking Kalyndria's curse and defeating her, Lucia felt an ominous presence that seemed to hide beyond her reach.The atmosphere around her seemed to spark with an unknown force that she could sense even now.Nero's physical presence beside her provided the stability that no other force could match. The young man stared at Isabella as she sat opposite them with a thoughtful expression.The prophetic visions of Isabella had become more intense and frequent throughout the day, making her unusually quiet. Lucia remained uncertain about the situation.Isabella's visions typically guided them through unexpected paths, yet today's dreams seemed different to Lucia. More ominous.“Isabella, what did you see?” Lucia spoke
Chapter 072Matteo Vulpin relaxed in his chair, smoke enveloped him, and candlelight shadows moved across his subterranean hideout walls.The atmosphere felt unfamiliar to him after many years since his last visit to such a secretive power center.The darkest corners of this place served as a secret meeting ground for alliance formation beyond the reach of those who believed themselves untouchable.He traced his finger across the glass rim while the dark liquid moved gently.The taste of bitterness filled his mouth precisely as the bitterness had accumulated in his heart since Lucia delivered her degrading blow.He had underestimated her, He resolved not to repeat his former error with her.A gentle knock on the door stopped his train of thought. The measured knock indicated respect from the person outside.Matteo rose to his feet, his large stature creating a long, dark shadow that spread across the entire space.A man entered the room through the creaking door; his face remained hid
Chapter 073Kalyndria stood in the centre of the ritual chamber, where dark stone walls emitted unsettling energy. The ritual chamber's atmosphere contained incense fragrance and blood-metallic odour.Power swirled around her body while she stood in the chamber, waiting to master it.The Blood Moon shone high above, illuminating the chamber through its narrow, tall windows with a supernatural light. The long-awaited instant had arrived for her to seize her authentic power.Her dark eyes shifted toward the sorcerers who formed a circle around her these dark figures dedicated themselves to her purpose.Their ancient words produced a steady humming sound that echoed through the air while her heart raced at the same tempo. The dark forces had selected the sorcerers surrounding her due to their exceptional power and complete dedication.The sorcerers were her tools to direct the Blood Moon's power, strengthening her divine capabilities."Is it ready?" Kalyndria spoke with a gentle yet auth
Chapter 074Alessandro paced back and forth in the dimly lit room, his eyes scanning the shadows as if searching for something out of reach.Lucia maintained silence while observing him from her seat at the table. His current state of agitation marked a first for Lucia in their relationship.The usually composed man displayed a new tension in his body, which emerged after the Blood Moon's curse was broken.You need to confirm that this is the proper moment to share this information. Lucia broke the silence by asking her question with a breaking voice. You need to explain this alliance you formed.Alessandro paused his movement and faced Lucia. His expression remained blank, yet she detected turmoil in his gaze. A deep breath escaped his lungs as he combed his dark hair with his fingers.He maintained the secret because of a specific reason Lucia told her. “But you need to know. We’re running out of options.The supernatural realm exists in an unstable state that many people fail to re
Chapter 075Dante Lupari positioned himself at the cliff's edge to observe the violent seas beneath him. His mind raced as wildly as water waves hit the rocky shore underneath him while a strong wind blew through his dark locks.The weeks since he joined Matteo's coalition had brought increasing pressure from his decision to align with power.His decision to support control and stability continued to battle against his inner desire to protect Lucia and something beyond mere survival.From the beginning of his existence, loyalty has been a complex web that has surrounded him. His life revolved around a perpetual battle between his responsibilities to protect his pack and his family and his inner yearnings.However, his relationship with Lucia was unique. It had always felt different. She represented something more significant than a typical cause.The choice to be with her created an internal conflict because it contradicted his entire life's purpose and everything he had built.The sp
Chapter 076As the moon started its gradual ascent into the night sky, Sophia's devotees stood in the shadows, gazing eagerly.The ritual they had spent so much time arranging was about to occur as the Blood Moon approached.They were all staring at the altar, where a strong sorcerer in shackles lay comatose, awaiting the resurrection of their beloved Sophia.They sang softly, forming a circle around the altar, wearing dark robes and keeping their faces veiled. The low buzz of their voices was a mingling of desperation and devotion.There was unquestionably heavy, thick energy in the air as if the ground beneath them could sense the power they were about to unleash.As the first rays of the Blood Moon's light illuminated the land, the sorcerer, who had been kidnapped and brought here because of his knowledge of prohibited magic, stirred a little. Despite knowing the expectations, fear lingered in his eyes.Fear that after this ceremony was finished, much more would be released than th
Chapter 086Kalyndria opened her eyes. Her body was still hurting from the damage the battle had done to her, and she was breathing in short, sharp gasps.However, she was still alive. She was wounded, but not broken or defeated. . I am not ready to give up just yet.She raised her hand, staring at the thin slivers of magic flickering across her fingertips like dying embers. It wasn't enough, but it was all she had left. It wouldn't be sufficient to complete the task she had begun.Images of Lucia's disobedience, Nero's meddling, and the never-ending power struggle raced through her head.She had had the Fire of the Moonthe Bloodod Moon itself, but it had escaped her grasp, leaving her scarred but with choices.At least there had to be a clear way forward. She would ensure that the path was clear.Kalyndria stood up, her bare feet chilled by the chilly stone of her haven. She welcomed the dust and decay that pervaded the air inside the secret temple.The walls held numerous sacrifices
Chapter 085As the wind howled through the mountain pass's narrow path, Dante's hands clenched around the hilt of his sword. His breath came in irregular, shallow gasps, and every step felt like a thousand burdens.Even though his past had always hovered over him like a shadow, he was resolved to put it behind him today.He would prove himself today, if not to the entire world, then at least to Lucia, who was the most important person.The stakes were high, but the mission was straightforward. In order to prevent Matteo from unleashing his evil magic, he and the team needed to recover an old artifact.Dante had offered to lead the risky portion, but Lucia took the lead.He could feel the pull of his former life, the darkness that had long defined him, the farther they ventured into enemy territory. Now, however, he was fighting for redemption.He saw a vision of Lucia's face, her eyes full of something other than determination. It might have been hope. Perhaps it was trust.He hadn't
Chapter 084Alessandro sat in the dimly lit chamber, a soft fire flickering in the hearth before him.The room was quiet, save for the occasional rustle of the papers scattered across the wooden table in front of him.The ancient walls of the mansion held an eerie still as if the very air was holding its breath, waiting for what was to come next.The task ahead weighed heavily on him, yet he had never shied away from responsibility.Tonight, he was not just Alessandro Stellini. He was a strategist, a leader, a man whose alliances would determine the fate of their world.Lucia had entrusted him with this mission to unite the forces that would stand against the chaos Matteo and Kalyndria sought to unleash. And Alessandro, despite his doubts, would not fail her.The door to the chamber creaked open, and he looked up to see Isabella step inside, her eyes sharp and focused, as always.Her presence was a comfort in this tense moment, a reminder that he was not alone in this fight."Have yo
Chapter 083Gasping for breath, Lucia stood at the base of the Italian Alps, staring up at the jagged rocks that hid the ancient temple she sought.The fresh aroma of the snow-capped mountains blended with the scent of pine trees in the crisp air.It was not only the physical weight of the Heart of Lunaria that was heavy in her hands. It was the weight of accountability and the knowledge that her decisions could either preserve or ruin everything she held dear.She had reached this point in her journey where she would confront the unknown and enter the center of power beyond her comprehension.The knowledge of Eldrin's increasing power weighed heavily on her heart, and the road ahead was dangerous. Though doubt gnawed at her insides, she had no choice but to move forward."Are you sure about this?" Nero's voice broke the silence, and he was always there by her side.Lucia looked at him, his expression a mix of resolve and worry. She could see the fear in his eyes the fear of failing,
Chapter 082Isabella's fingers hovered over the ancient book, its pages smudged but still readable from years of turning.Her heart pounded as she turned the pages of the yellowed parchment, the words drawing her further into the mystery of Eldrin, the mighty creature who had suddenly materialized.She had been having visions that were getting more precise and distinct. But they were still illogical. Similar to a puzzle that needs to be assembled, the pieces were dispersed.She was trying to make connections as her mind raced. Not only was Eldrin a strong being, but he was also something much older, with ties to the Blood Moon.Prophecies from antiquity that mentioned equilibrium and forces that could either tip the scales in favor of life or destruction had never been clear.However, this was something different. Eldrin was not a normal person. He was the final member of a lineage that had been developed since the beginning of time in order to preserve the harmony between chaos and o
Chapter 081Matteo Vulpin stood in the dimly lit room, his back straight and his fingers resting lightly on the cold wood of the table. The walls around him felt like they were closing in, the air heavy with the tension he had built over months.Usually, he played a slow, calculated game, but tonight, something felt different. Everything was about to shift, and he knew it.His next move would shock Lucia's coalition, leaving them vulnerable and exposed.The plan was set in motion a long time ago. Lucia meticulously crafted every detail, perfectly timing each betrayal and assassination.One by one, Lucia's once-strong alliances began to crumble. He couldn’t help but feel a slight satisfaction as he imagined the fear spreading through her ranks.Matteo’s gaze flickered toward the map on the table before him.He was not only interested in the supernatural world but also in the lucrative mafia world.Lucia had trusted too many people too many people who had already chosen their sides.He k
Chapter 080Sophia’s eyes flickered open, her vision blurry at first, the darkness around her swarming with fragmented images. Her mind felt like a jigsaw puzzle, the pieces scattered, waiting to be put together.She could feel the pulse of her heart, slow and heavy, as though something had been stolen from her, something vital that she could not yet recall.A voice whispered in the back of her mind, sharp and full of malice. “You’re not whole yet. Not yet.”She blinked, trying to make sense of the words, but they faded into the shadows as she pushed herself to sit up. The air smelled thick with magic, familiar yet foreign, as if the very fabric of reality had been altered.She could feel the power pulsing through her veins, her body still not entirely her own but stronger than she remembered.The ritual had worked. But it had been incomplete.Sophia’s hand pressed against her forehead, the memories flooding back in flashes images of betrayal, anger, and a thirst for revenge.She reme
Chapter 079The night in Corciano had always been peaceful. The cool breeze swept through the streets, carrying the scent of fresh flowers from the nearby gardens. It was the kind of place where the supernatural lived quietly among the humans, each of them keeping their heads down, knowing their place in the world.There was a calm here, a sort of stillness that settled in the heart. But all of that would change in an instant.A crackle of energy split the air, followed by a low rumble like thunder. The ground trembled beneath their feet, and the night sky, which had been clear and serene, darkened as if something unseen was blocking out the stars.A sudden, sharp gust of wind blew through the trees, rattling the branches and sending leaves spiraling into the air.Then, the figure appeared.Eldrin stood at the center of the town square, his presence undeniable. He was tall, his long hair flowing like dark silk around his shoulders.His eyes, glowing faintly with a light that seemed bo
Chapter 078As Nero observed the mayhem all around him, his heart raced. As Matteo's army swept through the room, the Heart of Lunaria flickered feebly on the table, its light fading.The dark magic swirled in the air, thick and suffocating, and he could feel its oppressive weight.Lucia was only a few paces away, and her eyes reflected his desperation.She had to finish the ceremony, She had to complete what she had begun.However, Matteo's troops had already arrived, and they would not give up until they had Lucia and the Heart."No!" With a roar, Nero moved ahead of her, his hands automatically grabbing hold of his divine power. "Remain back!"The soldiers paused, obviously not anticipating opposition. However, the sinister energy that pervaded the space propelled them forward, and the first blow came like a wave, strong and relentless.Nero barely flinched, even though he felt the impact of their spell. This time, though, something was different. He was accustomed to the weight of
