MARKED BY MY STEPBROTHER Chapter Seventy Two
Chapter 72 Sophie’s POV Two days later The garden behind the mansion had become our unofficial war room for 'How to Survive Ancient Gods Without Losing Your Sanity.' I sat on the stone bench, holding a cup of tea that had gone cold twenty minutes ago, watching the wind rustle the leaves as they were gossiping about a scandal that had to do with the heavens. Damon paced in front of me, his silver eyes sharp with the kind of frustration that only came from dealing with immortals who had too much time on their hands and not enough hobbies. "The Forgotten sent another scroll this morning," he said, tossing the rolled parchment onto the bench beside me. It unrolled a bit, revealing elegant writing that smelled of old libraries. "They want a formal audience. No baby this time, just us. They say the Convergence left loose ends, and we're the ones holding the thread." I picked up the scroll, and looke

Chapter 71 Sophie’s POV The sacred ridge had become a battlefield of gods and mortals. The sky above opened more wider, silver and black light pouring through like wounds that just wouldn't stop bleeding. The old bloodlines took vantage points around the ancient altar, and what they were doing there wasn't something that anyone was blind to. There were factions here, and each faction had their own purpose. Shadows came out of the chasm behind the altar, turning into creatures faster than we could destroy them. I stood in the center with Damon on one side and Lucas strapped securely to my chest. The family bond glowed between us, but with the pressure that we were getting from the Convergence, I could feel the strain. A lot of things were happening, you know. My kid didn't want the gods to take him and I didn't want him gone from my sight either. Damon was saying something to me. When I paid attenti

Third POV Let's go back to the beginning, before the moon had learned to behave itself and the stars were still arguing about their seating arrangement, the Cosmos decided it was time to throw a party. Not a normal party, mind you, this was the kind of cosmic bash where the invitations were written in pure primordial essence and the dress code was "try not to unravel reality." The Cosmos, feeling particularly full of himself after a long nap that lasted several eternities, decided to create the first gods to help manage the newly formed world. His thought, what could possibly go wrong with creating helpers? The problem started with the guest list. The Cosmos invited the Void, that grumpy, endless neighbor who never brought snacks and always complained about the noise. The Void showed up late, wearing nothing but shadows and a bad attitude, and immediately started eating the first course, which, in this case, were the first sparks of cre

Sophie’s POV The sacred ridge was strangely quiet in the after it was all over. I laid on the broken stone altar, my body feeling like some empty vessel, as if a piece of my soul had been taken right out of me. The Devourer had taken something important, a fragment of my golden essence, and the loss was so loud through the bond like a missing limb. Lucas was still close to me, and his small fingers ever finding their way around my shirt. “Mommy.. hurt?” he said sotto voce. A faint golden-red spark tried to flow from him into me, but it was weak and unstable. I brushed his dark curls back, and forced a tired smile. “Mommy’s okay, baby. Just tired. You were so brave.” Damon knelt beside us, his large hand covering both of ours. I could see that he felt guilty of what has just happened. “Sophie, you shouldn’t have done that. You gave up too much.” I reached up and touched his

Sophie’s POV Lucas’s scream was like a blade through my heart. Tearing through all the vital vessels and what have you. Sharper than any blade that had ever been made to puncture flesh and blood. The tendril had pierced his small chest, and immediately, dark energy spread like poison across his glowing skin. The family bond, the bright, warm connection that had held us together through everything, snapped like the sound of a dry twig under the heavy boots of some reckless drifter in the woods, and that left an emptiness in my soul that was only filled with one thing. Screaming. Go figure. I moved forward, golden energy exploding from my hands as I tried to burn the tendril away. But the Devourer’s power was too strong. It pulled back, dragging my son toward its maw, just like it has done to me a couple of months back. Only this time, I wasn't the one who was being dragged. It was my ch

Sophie’s POVThe sacred temple ruins stood silent under a blood-red moon as we arrived at the heart of the Convergence. The old bloodlines had gathered in their numbers, hundreds of figures from The Forgotten, The Eternal Watch, The Silent Veil, and newer factions who felt like they should matter. Well, to me they didn't matter. They had come for my son, something that I didn't want happening. So why the fuck should they even matter to me? Their energies were all over the place, in the air like storm clouds, violet, silver, and black like void swirling together in uncomfortable alliance.Was pretty sure they didn't like themselves, but just because they all wanted the same thing, they'd have to play ball. Lucas clung to my neck, his small body was shaking against me. I knew he didn't like the setting and didn't want to be here, close to all these things. That was something that I could relate to as well. At ten months old, he understood far too much. “Mommy, they want me,” he whisper
