LOGIN⭐️Aria POV⭐️ The sunlight was the first thing I felt. It was warm against my face, almost painfully bright after the darkness I had been trapped in for so long. I slowly opened my eyes, but the light was so intense that I immediately squinted and raised my hand to shield them. 'Where the hell am I?' I wondered as I lowered my hand and looked around while my eyes slowly adjusted. My breath hitched. I knew this place. I knew it all my life. I was standing in the middle of the backyard of the Silver Pack's Alpha House. But something was different. The house looked older. It was exactly the way it had looked when I was a child. The trees were full and green. Birds chirped from the branches. The warm summer air rested gently against my skin, carrying the familiar scent of flowers and freshly cut grass. Everything was peaceful. Too peaceful. There were no chains.No cold stone beneath my feet.No blood.No darkness. Just sunlight.. warmth.. “Aria, what are you doing? Come inside.” My
⭐️Aria POV⭐️ “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH” Another scream ripped out of me, raw enough to tear my throat apart. My entire body shook violently as I felt the pressure finally break. Another surge of golden energy erupted from my core, shattering the remaining air in my lungs. With every pulse I felt my body weaken more and more then suddenly, For one tiny second, the agony disappeared. I collapsed back against the stone, desperately dragging air into my lungs. My arms felt numb. My legs barely felt attached to my body. I just couldn’t do that anymore. “I can't,” I said in defeat. Klaus tightened his grip on my shoulders and I raised my head and my eyes met Katherine' s. There was pity in her eyes. Not the kind that made me feel weak. But the kind that came from watching someone you loved suffer and wishing you could take their pain away. I was doing this alone. I had no mother beside me to hold my hand, to tell me what was happening, to tell me I could survive it. And somehow, Katheri
⭐️Aria POV⭐️In a second, we were standing in the castle foyer. Carefully, Tory helped me onto the nearest leather couch before vanishing again in a flash.Another wave of agony tore through my lower back, threatening to rip my body in half. I fisted the cushion beside me so tightly my knuckles turned stark white, burying my face into the leather to let out a muffled scream.“MMMMMPPHHHFF!”I gasped frantically for air, trying to contain the agony consuming my body. After all that I have been through, my weak body couldn’t take it anymore.Suddenly, Katherine materialized directly in front of me.“Oh, Moon Goddess...” She froze, horrified by the state I was in—drenched in sweat, blood, and dirt. She rushed over, dropping to her knees beside the couch and grabbing my shoulders. “What are you doing down here?! We need to get you upstairs and summon the—”She didn't get to finish. Tory reappeared beside her, bringing two women along: the High Priestess of the temple and the head midwife.
⭐️ Klaus POV ⭐️ I just witnessed my half-brother kill my father in cold blood. Without hesitation and without remorse. And even though I had wished for King Henry’s death a million times before because of everything he had done to me, I had never imagined I would actually stand there and watch it happen. And now he was dying on the steps of his own throne. Kaden took a heavy, staggering step toward me, the wolfsbane-coated blade dripping thick crimson onto the white marble. His eyes were completely hollow, devoid of emotions. The witch was gone. There were no shadowy spells to hide behind, no demons to summon, no tricks left to protect him. Just a cold piece of steel and a heart full of venom. “He’s gone,” Kaden whispered. A bitter, almost broken laugh escaped his lips. “Now it’s just you and me, brother.” Before he could take another step, a low, murderous growl reverberated through the vaulted ceiling. “You son of a bitch!” Sam’s voice exploded inside my head. A secon
⭐️ Klaus POV ⭐️‘Five minutes, Klaus. Before this baby takes his first breath, those two take their last.’I nodded at Aria and sighed heavily. I knew what was about to happen to her.In those five minutes, Aria was going to cross over to her dark side. I couldn’t stop her—and truth be told, I wouldn’t even try. She had survived hell with those two. She needed to burn that page of her life to ash so we could start fresh with our child. And I would do the same. ‘Where are we going?’ Sam’s voice echoed in my head as we both pinned Kaden between us. I didn’t answer him. He would see for himself soon enough.There was a specific place I had wanted to take Kaden ever since I first met him years ago.A place he deserved to see.A place I had never been able to take him before.But now...I could.The world blurred around us as I teleported, leaving that filthy, suffocating pit behind.A second later, our feet touched polished white marble. Bright chandeliers hung from the enormous ceiling
⭐️ Aria’s POV ⭐️I stared at the witch for a few endless seconds, finally releasing the grip of my labor pains from her mind.She gasped loudly for air, thrashing like a drowned corpse brought back to life, then slowly lifted her head off the dirty floor. Her breathing was ragged, her face drained of all color. For the first time, there was no dark shimmer around her. No shadows. No hexes. No barrier to hide behind.The injection had taken it all away. She was completely powerless.Just like she wanted me to be.Something deep inside me shifted—a dark, sleeping force I had been waiting to unleash. I didn't care if I lost control. I wouldn't feel an ounce of regret.No one hurts my baby and lives to see another day.My breathing slowed. The agony in my body hadn't vanished—my back was still an open fire, my legs trembled so violently beneath my weight that Tory stood on guard nearby, terrified I might collapse—but I barely felt it anymore. The pain was eclipsed by a cold, unstoppable p
