ZANE’S POVI had cracked the code and I could not be more certain of what I had said.As Jessica understood, she did not wait any longer. The time my words reached her, she sprinted forward as fast as she could. The dark energy around her responded, resisting her intervention, with the black mist breaking and drawing back.
ZANE’S POVThis Eric guy was hitting on my nerves! He was playing hide and seek with Jessica and me. Things were getting messier and now I had to apply more force to stop him.I could not afford for my Jessica to get hurt. Therefore, I intervened.“Step back, Jess,” I said.
JESSICA/TESSA’S POVThe instant Eric’s claw brushed the altar’s light, his entire body convulsed.A bark rumbled from his throat as he reeled back, his muscles locking, his bones shuddering beneath his skin.The black veins that had spidered across his arms and neck began to ebb, fading like some ink was

Zane pov. Fred looked at me with so much hesitation in his eyes. I knew he was worried for me but I was worried for Tessa. She didn’t have enough guards with her, and knowing her, she’d rather die than come back empty-handed.“Please,” I said quietly. He stared at me for a long moment before sigh
Tessa/Jessica pov.“You really don’t want to tell the king about this?” Ronald asks again, for what feels like the tenth time as I sharpen my scimitar.“Ronald, you can always say no if you don’t want to follow me,” I say. It’s already bad enough I lied to Zane. I don’t want to think about it, but
Tessa/Jessica pov.I was down to five warriors by the time Ronald led the injured ones back. I’d let him take most of them on purpose — better to have more guarding the wounded than slowing me down if things went wrong.By the time the sun began to sink behind the thick line of trees, we had alrea
Tessa/Jessica POV: Saving ZaneBy the time we reached the tribe, the sun had barely risen. Every step felt heavier, my body weak and trembling from the fight and exhaustion, but I didn’t stop—not even a single breath.The Purifying Grass was safe in my pouch, wrapped carefully with a strip of my clo
