Chapter: 83 ****** VALE: “Vale…” he moaned again, and the sound was intoxicating. With every thrust of my fingers and stroke of my hand, I watched as his face transformed, a mix of bliss and need that made my heart race. The air around us seemed to shimmer with energy as my pheromones enveloped him, swirling in misty blue and white hues, filling the room with a warmth that was uniquely ours. As Virgil reached his climax once again, his body tensing and arching against me, he inhaled deeply, drunk on the sensations I was giving him. I felt him release, the sound of my name on his lips, a symphony of ecstasy that echoed in the bedroom. The moment he fell back against the pillows, utterly spent, I couldn’t help but smile. I took a moment to compose myself, my heart still racing from our connection. With a soft sigh, I cast a protective barrier spell around the entire East Wing, ensuring that no one with ill intentions could cross the veil and harm my Virgil. It was a necessity, a p
Chapter: 84******ALTAIR:The morning light flooded the University of Elysium's tall windows, but its gentle warmth seemed distant, overshadowed by a heavy silence. As I entered the classroom, my classmates' voices faded into a hushed murmur. All eyes fixated on me, their gazes weighing heavily on my shoulders. Whispers filled the air, carrying morsels of gossip that cut through the atmosphere like sharp knives."Altair is said to have caused the deaths of Luna's Betas," one voice accused quietly."And he almost burned down the Pack's Manor," another voice added in disbelief.People in the room felt tense as the gossip continued."But he hasn't been punished," someone said sadly."Who would even dare to punish Luna's only son?" another person wondered, sounding scared."I heard he doesn't even have a wolf, never shifted until that day. All because of Talon, the vampire," someone whispered with surprise.The students looked shocked, sharing looks of disbelief."Mated to a vampire? Tal
Chapter: 85 ****** TALON: I woke that morning with a sense of buoyancy as if I were drifting among the clouds. A newfound lightness infused my steps, and a soft melody played in my throat. The song I had shared with Vale lingered at the edge of my tongue, his gentle voice echoing in my mind, prompting frequent smiles that I couldn’t suppress. Later that evening, I prepared for my class, and as usual, I embraced the experience with joy. The children noticed my upbeat demeanor, and Murray playfully ribbed me about it. It was, without a doubt, a splendid day; even when I heard that the Lycgers had come to take their son for the Manor, I found no room for sorrow or concern. Given Vale's recent actions, it was understandable that his parents were upset, and it was equally important that Altair offered his apologies. I too recognized the need to express my regrets, especially to the Lycgers, whose mate Vale had nearly harmed. The day was filled with discussions about my spirit wolf's an
Chapter: 86*******VALE:The gates of Elysium loomed before me, an unwelcome sight that felt both familiar and foreign. I pushed through, my heart racing with a frantic hope that felt increasingly futile. In my arms, Virgil lay motionless, and every step I took felt heavier than the last as if the very earth beneath my feet conspired to drag me down into despair.“Please, not again,” I whispered, my voice barely a tremor against the night air. I could hardly breathe, my chest constricted by a suffocating dread. Each heartbeat echoed in my ears, a reminder of the fleeting moments we had shared, now slipping through my fingers like sand.“What happened, Altair?” I asked my half that had grown cold within me. “Altair,” I called again, worry starting to tug at my heartstrings. When he finally replied, his voice was so weak that I knew something was terribly wrong. The Goddess had seen something; she had sent me back to prevent whatever was about to happen, yet I had arrived just a moment
Chapter: 87 ****** VALE: “Po-” My voice faltered as tears stung my eyes. Rage surged within me, bubbling to the surface. “Poisoned?” I demanded, my heart pounding in my chest as I struggled to comprehend his words. “W-what do y-you mean p-poisoned?” My body felt heavy as if the very weight of my grief threatened to crush me. The pain inside was unbearable, and I wanted to reach into my chest and tear my heart out, anything to alleviate the torment. The doctor nodded gravely. “Whatever he ate last killed him. It was poisoned—a lethal substance not meant for a vampire. Whoever fed this to him wanted him dead.” Anger ignited inside me. “He was with Altair when this happened! There’s no way my half would do this!” I growled, my vision blurring with fury. The urge to set fire to the Manor, to destroy everyone within its walls who had done this to him, consumed me. Altair had fallen asleep, and I couldn’t reach him to find out what our mate had eaten. “I’ll take a blood sample
Chapter: 88 ******* SOMEWHERE IN DRAKENSHIRE… THIRD PERSON POV: In a quiet hospital room, the sterile scent of antiseptic filled the air, mingling with the faint sound of monitors beeping steadily. The room was dimly lit, with soft overhead lights casting a gentle glow over the scene. On one side, a large window allowed a sliver of sunlight to filter in, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air. The walls were painted a calming shade of blue, and adorned with a few abstract paintings that did little to distract from the clinical environment. In the center of the room lay a man, a figure with the pallor of someone who hadn't seen the sun in years. His body was covered with a thin blanket, and multiple tubes snaked from his arms and face, connecting him to various machines. A ventilator hummed softly beside him, its rhythmic whoosh filling the silence as it forced air into his lungs. The heart monitor beeped steadily, displaying a consistent, yet weak, line on its screen.
Chapter: 89 ****** THIRD PERSON: As Evelyn stepped out of the sleek glass doors of Helios Pharmaceutical, her heart raced with a mix of excitement and anxiety. Waiting for her was a black luxury car, the driver standing by the door with a warm smile. “Good afternoon, Dr. Hart,” the driver greeted, his voice cheerful. “It’s a beautiful day for good news, isn’t it?” “It certainly is,” she replied, her voice bubbling with joy as she slid into the back seat. “Let’s go to the hospital, please.” The driver nodded, pulling out into the bustling city traffic. As they drove, Evelyn quickly dialed her nanny, her fingers trembling slightly. “Yes, Helen. Please bring the kids to the hospital. Their father has awakened from his coma!” She paused, listening to the excited response on the other end. “Yes, I want them to see him right away. Thank you!” The anticipation bubbled within her as they approached the hospital. Her mind raced with thoughts of her husband, the man who had bui
Chapter: 90 ***** TALON:DREAM-LIKE MEMORIES. After a few minutes, Vale turned off the water and dried his hands. He leaned against the table, a playful smirk dancing on his lips. “Alright, I think we’ve done enough work for now. How about we have a little fun?” “Fun? What do you have in mind?” I asked, my curiosity piqued. He leaned in closer, mischief glinting in his eye. “How about a game? We could play some music together or maybe even a round of charades.” “Charades? You’re on,” I laughed, suddenly enthusiastic. I used to enjoy that game with my friends when we were all together. I really missed those guys, which brought me to another nagging question. Now that Vale had returned, did that mean I could visit my friends, stay away from RiverBay, and not fear for his safety? I decided not to voice that question, instead focusing on the game. “But fair warning—I might not be as good at acting as I am at singing.” Vale chuckled, his laughter filling the room. “I woul

Chapter: 145 ***** PART THREE AND THE END…. “Come,” Arion said, rising to his feet and gesturing for me to follow. He led me toward the Mirror of Eternity mounted on the wall. “Look,” he instructed, pointing into its depths. A swirling cloud of smoke filled the mirror, gradually taking shape to reveal my Virgil, deep within the forest behind Elysium, where he often went for his hunts. “This was the moment you asked me to watch over him while you fulfilled your vows to the Goddess. That night, he saw me by the river. He didn’t recognize me, of course, but he spoke to me. It was at that moment I realized he had perceived my presence. He shouldn’t have been able to see me unless I revealed myself, yet I never did, and still, he saw me.” I stepped closer to the mirror, placing my hand against the cool surface where his image lingered. Arion turned to me, his gaze intent. “Do you know what he said to me that night?” I shook my head, turning my full attention to him. “He sa
Chapter: 144 ****** PART TWO: Virgil gasped as Vale's tongue lapped vigorously as his exposed velvet heat. The strange sensation caused Virgil to writhe and moan, leaning closer to the mattress and holding his ass higher for his wolf to continue his oral assault on his tender hole. It wasn't long before saliva started to drip down Virgil's thighs, the Vampire was a slave to his own body. "Please... More!" He found himself begging as he looked back at his giant white wolf. Slowly, Vale began to shift but Virgil was lost in his own world to notice this until two fingers slipped into his mouth and he sucked on them, wetting them, moaning as more of Vale's taste seeped into him. Then the fingers were taken from his eager mouth, and Virgil was going to protest their loss when he cried out as they were pushing deep inside him, curling to stroke over his gland roughly. “Ngh... P-Please…” Virgil begged, his voice trembling with desperate need, prompting a deep chuckle from Vale.
Chapter: 143 ****** EPILOGUE PART ONE: ***** Once in the bedroom, Vale leaned against the door, his presence commanding and intoxicating. As Virgil stepped down, the air thickened with the heady scent of Vale’s strong pheromones, wrapping around him like a warm embrace. It ignited memories of that first, wild rush of desire, sending shivers down his spine as he recalled the way he had once lost control, surrendering to his own touch. A soft smile played on Virgil’s lips, a blend of confidence and vulnerability, as he approached the edge of the bed. With Vale still poised by the door, a silent guardian of their shared tension, he began to undress, each movement deliberately slow and tantalizing. The fabric slipped away, revealing skin that glistened under the dim light, and Vale’s gaze roamed hungrily, filled with a fierce longing that made Virgil's heart race. In that charged atmosphere, the world outside faded, leaving only the two of them, electric and raw. Vale's eyes

Chapter: 142 ****** THIRD PERSON: The air in the bonding hall was thick with anticipation, the soft glow of candlelight flickering against the stone walls, casting dancing shadows that seemed to echo the hearts of those gathered. At the front of the room, the Elder stepped forward, his presence commanding yet soothing, drawing the attention of all who were present. With a gentle but firm voice, he began to anchor the ceremony. “We are gathered here today to celebrate the union of two souls who, through trials and tribulations, have found each other. Their love has stood strong against all odds.” His gaze swept across the assembly, each face reflecting the warmth of shared joy. “Today, we witness their sealing—the binding of two souls, different by blood and Kin, yet entwined by love. It is a sacred bond, a fate joined.” The Elder raised his staff high, its tip adorned with intricate carvings that glimmered in the candlelight. He pointed it toward the moon-shaped window abov
Chapter: 141 ****** THIRD PERSON: “Are you ready?” Dirk asked his presence a comforting reminder of the love and support that surrounded Talon since his Uncle accepted him and forgave him, even amid familial discord. Talon nodded, a genuine smile breaking through as he turned back to his father one last time. “I’ll be okay,” he reassured, stepping toward Dirk. The man had transformed over the years, treating Talon with a kindness that felt like a continuous effort to make up for the many lost years between them. Talon deeply appreciated his uncle’s efforts and the love he offered; it was something he had longed for throughout his life. Despite having a father now, Talon’s bond with Dirk remained unchanged. No matter what, Dirk would always be the only family Talon truly knew. “Dad!” The exuberant voices of his children rang through the air as they burst into the room, their faces alight with joy. At thirteen years old, they were a whirlwind of energy, and Talon’s hear
Chapter: 140 ****** THIRD PERSON: The RiverBay Pack buzzed with excitement, the air thick with anticipation as the Bonding celebration approached. In the farthest wing of the Manor, Talon remained secluded, locked away for three days, immersed in the necessary rituals, the only people he saw during this time were his uncle and the omegas who attended to him. He could feel the weight of the hours pressing against him, each moment drawing him closer to the one he longed to see—Vale. Even Altair who roamed around his head with each breath he took, was locked out. The ache of missing his soulmate gnawed at him, a reminder of their shared connection that surpassed time. Dressed in a sleek black bonding attire, Talon admired his reflection in the mirror. The fabric clung to him, elegant yet tantalizing, hinting at the form beneath while maintaining an aura of mystery. His chest tightened with a mix of eagerness and anxiety as he recalled the whirlwind of change that had swept throug
Chapter: 139 ***** TALON: ("Are you aware that she’s manipulating you, or rather, manipulating Helios?") Altair’s voice sliced through my reverie, prompting a smile as I gathered the children and guided them toward their bedroom. It was essential to soothe their spirits so they could find peace tonight. Helen accompanied me until we reached the children's room, but it was Liam who broke the silence first. “Can we stay in your room tonight?” he asked, his voice still tinged with the remnants of tears, soft and fragile. Without hesitation, I nodded and redirected our path toward my own bedroom. Once inside, I tucked the twins into bed, remaining by their side until their breathing steadied into sleep. Helen had slipped away earlier, leaving just me and the children in the quiet room. With them finally at rest, I turned and stepped out onto the balcony, settling into a chair as I gazed up at the luminous moon. “I apologize for keeping you restrained while she was hurting
