Chapter 54

• The flickering light of the torches in the meeting chamber cast long shadows across the room as Amara, Xander, and Asher stood before the vampire envoy. The envoy was a striking figure—tall and slender, with alabaster skin and sharp, crimson eyes that seemed to pierce through any facade. Dressed in dark, elegant clothing, he radiated an air of quiet authority. His name was Victor, and he had been sent by Lord Darius to act as a bridge between the vampire covens and the werewolf factions.
• Victor inclined his head politely. “Luna Amara, Alpha Xander, and... Asher,” he said, his voice smooth but tinged with a hint of amusement as he regarded the werewolf strategist. “It is an honor to meet you. Lord Darius has instructed me to serve as your liaison, relaying information between our factions to ensure the success of this... alliance.”
• “Thank you for coming,” Amara replied, her voice steady but cautious. She studied Victor carefully, noting the subtle power in his presence. “We appreciate Lord Darius’s support and your willingness to assist us.”
