Sylvia demanded, eyeing Ava as she approached the statue with the deathly inscription. Rose glanced around, trying to make sense of the shadowy figure near the door.

Rain-slick alleys. Neon reflections bouncing off puddles like broken promises. The city never sleeps not because it wants to, but because it doesn’t dare. Most people walk these streets on autopilot. Not me. For me, every corner hums with life, every shadow whispers something I probably shouldn’t hear. Misfortune seems to follow me, like a loyal dog with terrible timing. It started with a disappearance. A man, a shadow, gone before I could blink. And then… someone was watching. Always watching. Curiosity tugged at me like a leash I couldn’t escape. What seemed like a coincidence twisted into something darker, something stitched into the veins of this city. The deeper I followed, the more tangled it all became. Lies. Secrets. Shadows that move when you’re not looking. Every step forward made survival a gamble: know when to pull, know when to cut loose. This is a city that punishes the curious. And I… I was far too curious.

In the fractured world of Avaloria and the Unknown, where power, deception, and forgotten truths shaped destiny, a war loomed on the horizon—one no one yet understood. Behind the shadows of this conflict lay a cosmic Lie, spanning continents, worlds, and the very fabric of existence. Valcroy and Erik had been thrust into a journey neither had asked for, but both had been forced to endure. What began as a desperate escape from the Frostborne household unraveled into a quest that crossed realms and defied comprehension.

This was his only chance to take back what was once his. Now, Ashley must choose: walk away and risk losing her child forever, or surrender herself to the man who once shattered her without a word of explanation. To be tainted, consumed, and owned by him... again. She wanted none of that.

Nesta moaned at the pleasure building up within her. She put her hand in his hair, lost in its softness, earning a moan from him. "Oh, Quinn," she moaned when his mouth traveled down her neck, down to her stomach, to her private parts. She jerked up as she felt him breathe air on it. She closed her eyes as she tried to savor this sensation that is foreign to her body. She could not get any words out due to the tension building between her legs. Quinn raised his head for a moment. "Open your eyes, my darling," he said, a small smile playing at the corner of his lips when he saw the state she was in. But he had just started. "I want you to look at me when I take you to that place you have never been before. I want to see the look in your eyes when you come undone with my tongue. Okay?" he asked as his hands trailed up and cupped her breasts, making a moan escape her lips while she managed to murmur a "Yes."
