“Fuck,” I breathe, my knees nearly giving out beneath me. “Fuck.”
That sensation came from an Omega, one who is freshly awakening. And in need of an Alpha to satisfy her needs.
Because she’s unclaimed.
I haven’t felt this flare in eons, this intrinsic call one that has my inner beast roaring with desire and a need tohunt.
“Serapina,” I breathe, realizing that the source of that sensation came from my little dreamer. My intended.My soulmate.
She’s about to go into heat. Perhaps not right this second, but soon.
And that sensual summoning of hers just alerted all of Alpha kind to her presence.
Not only that, but her powerful call provided her exact location, too.
In the Netherworld Kingdom.
“Run,” I breathe, misting to the balcony outside of her rooms in Death’s Palace. “Run!”
However, before I can even finish shouting the demand, my soulmate is already gone.
Hades has her, I realize, sensing Serapina with ease, thanks to my connection to her spirit.
But then I frown when I ascertain where he’s taken her.
It’s a place our kind isn’t supposed to go anymore. Not after what happened a few thousand years ago.
Although, I know Hades keeps a place there. I’ve visited before. But not in a very long while.
Hmm, I hum, latching onto their combined essences as I engage my misting ability once more.To the Human Realm we go, then…

Sera
A Few Seconds Earlier
So this iswhat bliss feels like, I marvel, lost in a cloud of wondrous gratification.When can I experience it again?
Maliki is between my thighs, but his mouth is no longer providing pleasure. He’s staring at Hades. My fiancé. Husband.Soulmate.
My lashes flutter as I try to understand what’s happening. Hades told Maliki to please me. But now he’s radiating violent intent.
Is he going to kill Maliki for touching me?
Oh, I hope not.
I told him not to. I said this wasmychoice. Was this all a test? A way to punish me for my soul’s betrayal?
Does he think I betrayed him… by letting Maliki pleasure me?
“Hades—”
He snatches Maliki’s coat from the bed and drapes it over me, then he yanks me up into his arms.
I stiffen. “What are?—”
The world blurs, causing my eyes to go wide in the darkness. I cling to his shoulders, my euphoria melting into terror.
