All Chapters of His Hunger, My Curse : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

A dense, eerie silence filled the room as the darkness around Lena and Adrian slowly receded. The weight of what had just happened clung to the air, thick and suffocating. Shadows curled at the edges of the walls, reluctant to fully release their grip on reality. Lena’s pulse pounded in her ears, her breath uneven as she tried to ground herself. The name she had spoken—Lucien—still lingered on her tongue like a forbidden curse. Adrian held her close, his arms locked around her protectively, his chest rising and falling with slow, controlled breaths. His grip was firm, but she could feel the tension in him—his muscles coiled, his heartbeat hammering against her own. She pulled back just enough to look up at him. "Tell me," she whispered, barely recognizing her own voice. "No more secrets." Adrian’s jaw tightened. His silver eyes were stormy, torn between hesitation and something deeper—something he didn’t want to say.

The room was silent—too silent. The quiet stretched between Lena and Adrian, a fragile tension that felt like it could snap at any moment. Lena could feel the electric hum in the air, the weight of their proximity, the storm that raged inside them both. The truth was no longer a secret; it hung in the air, thick and suffocating, unspoken but undeniable.Lena stepped away from the window, turning slowly to face Adrian. His presence was like a force of nature, pulling her in despite her resistance. She could still feel the echoes of his touch on her skin, the heat of his kiss that had burned through the walls she’d tried so hard to build around herself.Adrian stood there, his dark eyes searching hers, as if trying to gauge whether she was ready for what was about to unfold. But how could she be? How could anyone be ready for the truth, for the revelation that would shatter everything they thought they knew?“I didn’t want this for you,” Adrian said, his voice low, almost regretful. “I

The moonlight streamed through the tall windows of the Blackwood Estate, casting long, ghostly shadows on the walls. The house had grown eerily quiet in the wake of the chaos, the tension in the air thick as a fog that refused to lift. Lena couldn’t shake the feeling that something far more dangerous than she had imagined was lurking just beneath the surface. Adrian had been distant since their confrontation with Lucien, the dark force that still clung to the air like a curse. Something was haunting about his silence—something that twisted deep inside her chest. She sat by the fireplace, watching the flames flicker, but her mind was far away, spinning in circles as she tried to piece together everything that had happened. The memories were fragmented, like broken shards of glass—sharp, painful, and dangerous to touch. The kiss. The hunger in Adrian’s eyes. Lucien’s claim. The whispers in her mind. And then—nothing. Her world had slipped into a fog, and she didn’t know how to cra

The world outside the Blackwood Estate had never felt so distant, so unreachable. Lena stared out of the narrow window in Adrian’s study, her gaze fixed on the moonlight that spilt across the land, casting long shadows that seemed to stretch into infinity. The estate was alive with whispers, secrets embedded in its very walls, and she was right in the middle of it all—caught between the past and the future, between truth and the lies that had been woven around her since the moment she stepped foot here.Adrian was behind her, silent for now, but she could feel his presence, the way his energy clung to the room, filling the space with an invisible weight. He was always there, always just a breath away, yet there was a distance between them that seemed insurmountable.Lena wanted to break it, to bridge the gap that had formed between them. But how could she? How could she reach across the chasm that had opened between them without falling into it herself?“Lena,” Adrian’s voice broke th

The silence was deafening. Adrian stood frozen, his face ashen, his body rigid, his eyes glowing with a furious, yet controlled, fire. The weight of the last few moments—of Lena’s betrayal, of the realization that she was no longer his—hung heavy between them like a shadow too dark to escape. Lena’s pulse thundered in her ears as she stood across from him, the distance between them wide, almost unbearable. She had never felt so exposed, so vulnerable, yet something deeper—a strange, instinctive pull—held her grounded in place. No matter how far apart they stood physically and emotionally, she couldn’t shake the feeling that they were irrevocably intertwined. "Adrian…" Her voice trembled, but she refused to let him see her fear. "Please…" He didn’t speak for a long time. Instead, his gaze bore into her, like he was searching for the woman he thought he knew, the woman he trusted. His eyes softened for a brief, agonizing moment. But then th
