"Maybe it's better that he's gone." Lucius's cold words pierced through the heavy silence, each syllable laced with a detachment that made my blood boil.

"What?" I choked out, barely able to believe what I was hearing. My chest tightened, my grief momentarily replaced by rage.

Lucius met my gaze, his expression unyielding. "We need to focus on how that spirit got into the palace. That's the priority now."

"What are you saying?" I demanded, my voice trembling with emotion. "What do you mean we won't save Veryon? He's your brother, Lucius!"

"He's a disturbance," Lucius replied coldly. "He's always been a disturbance. I've been trying to rid this palace of him for days. And now, it's finally happened."

My hands clenched into fists. "You're lying," I said, my voice breaking. "You don't mean that."

"I do," Lucius shot back. "You should be glad he's gone. He's been nothing but trouble, especially to you."

"No!" I shouted. "You don't get to decide that!.

    Lust hit the ground first, her body scraping against the jagged, dark terrain. She barely felt the pain, too consumed by the chaos swirling around them. The portal had been a mistake. They were supposed to bring Kiara, but instead, they had pulled in a stranger—this mage, this Veryon.Lust's sharp gaze flickered to the others as they slowly rose from the ground, just as confused, just as enraged. They had all expected Kiara to be there, not him. Their plans were in ruins before they even had a chance to begin."What is this?" Lust's voice was a hiss, barely controlled. "This isn't Kiara. This is nothing but a mage."Veryon groaned, pushing himself upright, blood trickling down his forehead. He looked every bit the part of a man who'd been thrown through hell and back, but he wasn't broken—not yet."I'm not your pawn," he spat, barely able to stand.The others loomed around him like shadows, each one distinct, their very presence oppressive. Lust's hands clenched into fists. She had fa

    Wrath wasted no time as he hauled Veryon's unconscious body over his shoulder, his movements swift and methodical."Where do we hide him?" Gluttony muttered, gnawing on his nails anxiously. "We can't leave him out in the open!""Over there." Wrath gestured sharply to a shadowed corner where jagged rocks jutted out like teeth. Without hesitation, he tossed Veryon's limp body into the crevice, covering him with nearby debris to obscure him from sight. The others exchanged nervous glances, their usual bravado replaced by a growing fear.And then it happened. The air shifted, heavy and oppressive. A cold, dark energy seeped into the room, making the already dim surroundings feel suffocating. Pride straightened immediately, his usual arrogance faltering as he muttered, "He's here."The room fell silent as Nihil's presence grew stronger. A figure emerged from the shadows—a towering being, cloaked in an aura of malevolence that made even Wrath take a step back. His eyes glowed with an otherw

    The burial of Tae was silent, too silent. I couldn't shake the emptiness that settled deep within me, the heavy sadness that clung to my every step. We had laid her to rest, but it didn't feel like enough. Nothing would ever feel like enough. I stood there, barely able to hold myself together, watching as they covered her with earth. There was something so final about it, something that made the weight on my chest even heavier.When we finally returned to the palace, I didn't even notice the halls as I walked past them. My feet seemed to move on their own, dragging me toward my chambers. I needed to be alone, to breathe, to think—though I wasn't sure what there was left to think about.I closed the door behind me softly, the silence almost suffocating. The space felt too big, too empty, even though it was filled with everything I would need. I dropped onto the bed, feeling the exhaustion catch up to me in waves. Everything felt off, like my mind was scattered, torn between grief, conf

    Lucuis POVAfter carefully tucking Kiara into bed, I quietly left her chambers. The hallway was still and dimly lit, the silence a welcome reprieve from her drunken ramblings. I shook my head, a small smile pulling at my lips as I thought about her antics. She'd be nursing quite the hangover in the morning.By the time I reached my own chamber, exhaustion tugged at me. The alcohol I'd consumed on the rooftop added a slight haze to my senses, though I'd been careful not to drink too much. As I closed the door behind me, ready to collapse into bed, I froze. Kael was standing in the middle of the room, his arms crossed and his expression unreadable."Don't you ever sleep?" I asked, raising an eyebrow at him.He smiled faintly, brushing off the remark. "Your Highness, the Dukes of Decresh have suddenly called for an impromptu meeting tomorrow morning," he said, his tone serious.I frowned, already uninterested. "Tell them to wait," I said dismissively, moving toward my bed.Before I could

    The room was heavy with tension as the duke who spoke placed the lantern on the table. It sat there, unassuming yet brimming with the weight of history. I stared at the object, my green eyes narrowing as unease settled over me."This is one of the lanterns Athena used to trap spirits," the duke declared, his voice steady yet charged with excitement. "After her death, they were believed to be lost or destroyed. But here it is—an artifact of unimaginable power, Your Majesty."I reached forward, running my fingers over the intricate carvings etched into its surface. The faint glow emanating from it was almost imperceptible, like the dying embers of a once roaring fire."It's powerless," I said, placing the lantern back down with a decisive thud."Yes," the duke admitted reluctantly. "Its power has faded, but it can be reawakened—if the goddess, Athena, wills it."My jaw tightened at their words. "She's not ready," I replied flatly, meeting their expectant gazes with a firm, unyielding st

    The morning light filtered through the curtains, painting soft streaks of gold across the stone walls of my room. I lay still, staring at the ceiling, my body aching from the weight of emotions and responsibilities that had piled up over the past few days.Maidservant Tae's death still lingered in my thoughts, a dull ache in my chest that refused to fade. It wasn't just his loss—it was the ripple effect it caused, the reminder of how fragile everything was. I had been trying to find my footing, trying to recover, but it felt like every step forward was met with another obstacle.Lucius, ever the dutiful protector, had brought Yuva and Layla to my side. They were capable, sharp, and intimidating in their own right, but their constant vigilance only added to the tension surrounding me. They barely spoke, their focus always on their duties, and the awkwardness between us hung in the air like an invisible wall.Elena, on the other hand, was my saving grace. Her sarcastic jokes and infecti

    Veryon's breathing was labored, his eyes darting around as though he expected an attack at any moment. His gaze finally landed on me, softening for a fleeting second before the sharp edge of distrust returned."Kiara," he rasped, his voice hoarse. "I don't have time to explain everything, but you need to listen to me."I stepped back, my fingers tightening around the hilt of my sword. "Veryon, you're hurt—what happened? Let me call Lucius, he can—""No!" he snapped, the desperation in his tone stopping me mid-sentence. He clenched his fists, his entire body trembling. "I don’t trust him. I don’t trust anyone here, Kiara. The only person I trust is you."His words struck me like a blow, and I struggled to process the weight of them. "Me? Veryon, what are you saying? Lucius and the others have been helping me—protecting me—""You don’t understand," he interrupted, his voice breaking slightly. "These walls, this place… they’re suffocating you. The spirits… they will come for you, Kiara.

    Lucius stepped out of the bathroom, water still dripping from his hair, his eyes narrowing as he wiped his face with a towel. The warm glow of the early morning sun filtered through the thick curtains, but there was something off in the air, something that made the usual peace of the palace feel unsettling.Kiara should have been here by now.His thoughts immediately shifted to the training session. She was always prompt, always eager to push herself. But today, there was no sign of her.He tossed the towel aside and walked toward the door, his movements brisk, his mind already racing. Something wasn't right. He had felt it the moment he stepped out of the bathroom—the absence of her presence.He moved quickly, striding down the hallway, his boots clicking against the marble floor. His eyes scanned every corner, every empty room he passed, his heart starting to quicken with a sense of urgency."Kiara?"The name slipped from his lips almost involuntarily, but the silence that followed

    The tomb seemed to pulse with a chilling, oppressive energy, the air thick with the spirits' dark magic. Kiara, still in Nihil's unyielding grasp, struggled against the suffocating force. Her body was battered, her energy almost depleted, but there was something deep within her—a spark—flickering with the strength of the goddess she once was."Let me go," Kiara rasped, her voice barely a whisper, but the words carried a strength beyond her physical form.Nihil’s grip tightened. "You can’t escape, Kiara. You are nothing but a mortal now—nothing more than a pawn in this game."The spirits of sin circled around, as if waiting for the final blow, but Kiara was slipping into a trance. The world around her began to blur, the echoes of Nihil’s voice growing distant.Suddenly, the weight of the moment hit her like a tidal wave. She had been here before. This wasn’t just a fight against Nihil—it was a battle she had fought countless times in her past, in a time long forgotten.The memories sur

His presence was suffocating, overwhelming me as he spoke about things I couldn't understand.“You don’t even know who you are anymore,” he murmured, his voice tinged with pain.I clenched my fists, my nails biting into my palms. This was madness.Before I could speak, the woman returned, holding the little girl in her arms. They stepped closer, and I felt the weight of all their stares pressing down on me.The woman’s eyes shimmered with something—relief? Grief? Desperation?Then she stepped forward, her expression softening.“I’m very sorry, my dear.”Her hand reached out, tucking a stray strand of hair behind my ear. It was such an intimate, motherly gesture, and for a split second, my heart ached for something I didn’t understand.“I’ve lost my daughter once,” she whispered, her voice trembling. “I won’t do it again.”I stepped back, panic rising in my chest. “No. No, this isn’t ri

    Kael, Ryder, and Asher were already circling the area, their movements synchronized as they continued the search.But I could feel the weight of the world on my shoulders. Every minute that passed felt like an eternity.“Lucius, she’s out there,” Elena said, her voice surprisingly softer than usual. “We’ll find her. We have to.”I nodded, but inside, the storm raged on. Every second felt like we were losing ground.“Keep looking!” I barked, more forcefully than I meant to. But it didn’t matter. We needed answers. And if I had to tear apart the entire forest to get them, then I would.The moonlight barely reached through the thick canopy above us as we pushed deeper into the woods. Time was running out, and I couldn’t afford to fail her.As we ventured further, the weight of the silence around us seemed to press in harder, almost as if the forest itself were holding its breath. Every step felt more like a descent into the unknown, and the air around us grew colder. The unease in my gut

    Lucius’s POVToday marks the second day since Kiara went missing. The frustration bubbling inside me was barely contained, my patience wearing thinner with each passing second. I had ordered my generals to investigate the Dukes of Decresh, especially Grewald. That bastard had the audacity to threaten me about Kiara before. If anyone had a hand in her disappearance, I was willing to wager it was him.Right now, my men were working on forcing the truth out of him in the palace’s underground torture chamber. The room reeked of sweat, fear, and blood. Dim torches lined the walls, casting long, flickering shadows over the instruments of pain. Grewald was tied to an iron chair, his clothes torn and stained with blood. His once-proud expression was now twisted with pain, but despite it all, he still refused to talk.“Where is she?” My voice was eerily calm as I took slow steps towards him, my boots echoing in the cold chamber.Grewald groaned, his breath ragged. “I… I don’t know what you’re

    Kiara's POV – The Truth UnfoldsThe room was silent, thick with an eerie familiarity I couldn't explain. My breath hitched as I took a small step back, my gaze darting between the four people before me. Their eyes held something I couldn't decipher—pain? Longing? Recognition?But how?My chest rose and fell rapidly. They had called me Athena. And now, this woman, with trembling hands and tear-filled eyes, had just called herself my mother.I shook my head. "No… No, that's not possible." My voice cracked.The woman's fingers tightened around my arm, her touch warm yet desperate. "We can't lose you again. We lost Athena once, and we will not lose you again."Her words made my blood freeze. My throat felt dry, and a dull ringing filled my ears.Again?"You came back home." Her voice was barely a whisper, yet it slammed into me like a tidal wave. "Can't you see?

The forest air was thick with damp earth and the sharp scent of pine, but beneath it all, I could feel them.Glutton and Envy were still behind me.I could hear Glutton's heavy footfalls—crushing everything in his path—the snap of twigs, the crunch of dead leaves. He wasn't trying to be quiet. He didn't need to be.Envy, on the other hand, was silent. Too silent. That was the part that terrified me.A low, cruel chuckle slithered through the trees.> "You're fast," Envy's voice came from somewhere behind me. "But not fast enough."Panic surged through me.I pushed forward, my body screaming in protest. My throat was dry, my breath ragged, but I knew what would happen if I stopped. They'd take me.
