Calista's POV

Morwen's body crumbled to dust before my eyes.

It happened fast. One moment she was there. Withered. Ancient. But solid. The next moment the wind that somehow moved through the underground chamber caught her. Turned her to ash. Gray particles scattered across the floor. Mixed with the blood and debris. Within seconds nothing remained except empty robes and the memory of her final words.

  • Dear Alpha, I’m Far Gone   Chapter 123: Breaking Down Walls

    Calista's POVHis words shattered something inside me.The walls I built so carefully over the past week crumbled like sand. All the fear and isolation and crushing responsibility I carried alone suddenly felt unbearable. I turned to face Zevran fully and saw nothing but love in his eyes. No judgment. No impatience. Just steady unwavering support that made my throat tighten with emotion."I am scared." The confession ripped from somewhere deep. "I am terrified that one wrong choice will destroy everything. That I will see disaster coming and be too slow or too stupid to stop it. That everyone will suffer because I was not good enough to wield this power.""Come here." He pulled me close and I went willingly. Let myself collapse against his chest. Let his arms wrap around me like a shield against the visions that never stopped. "Tell me everything. Tell me what you see. Tell me what scares you most.""I see too many paths." My voice was muffled against his shirt. "Every decision br

  • Dear Alpha, I’m Far Gone   Chapter 122: Zevran's Worry

    Zevran's POVI watched her fade.Not physically. She still moved through the palace. Still attended meetings. Still smiled when people spoke to her. But the light behind her eyes dimmed a little more each day. The woman I loved was disappearing into something cold and distant and unreachable. Five days since she gained this cursed power. Five days of watching her slip further away while I stood helplessly.She sat across from me now at breakfast but she might as well have been on another continent. Her eyes were unfocused. Distant. Seeing things I could not see. Futures I could not imagine. Her food sat untouched. Her coffee grew cold. She had not eaten properly in days and it showed in the hollows beneath her eyes and the sharpness of her cheekbones."Calista." I kept my voice gentle. "You need to eat something. You are wasting away.""I am fine." The automatic response came without her even looking at me. "I just need to focus. There are too many variables. Too many possible outcom

  • Dear Alpha, I’m Far Gone   Chapter 121: Weight of Power

    Calista's POVI stopped sleeping.Every time I closed my eyes the visions came. Not nightmares exactly but something worse. I saw futures branching out like tree roots in every direction. Saw how every tiny choice I made created ripples that touched hundreds of lives. Saw people I loved suffering because I chose wrong. Saw kingdoms falling because I hesitated. Saw children dying because I made one mistake. The weight crushed me until I could not breathe.Three days have passed since I woke with this curse. Three days of seeing too much and understanding too little. Three days of carrying a responsibility so heavy it made my bones ache. I sat by the window now and watched dawn break over Noctis. The city looked peaceful. Beautiful. But I saw the cracks beneath. Saw the fragile threads holding everything together. Saw how easily it could all fall apart."Calista." Zevran's voice came from the doorway. "You need to rest. You have not slept in two days.""I cannot sleep." My voice sounde

  • Dear Alpha, I’m Far Gone   Chapter 120: A New Power

    Calista's POVI woke to sunlight streaming through familiar windows.For a moment I just lay there confused. The last thing I remembered was the crater. The darkness. The fragment shattering inside me. Then nothing. Just empty blackness that could have lasted minutes or years. I had no way of knowing. My body felt heavy and strange like it belonged to someone else."Calista?" Zevran's voice came from beside me. "Can you hear me?"I turned my head and saw him sitting in a chair pulled close to the bed. He looked terrible. Dark circles shadowed his eyes. His hair was messy. His clothes were wrinkled as he slept in them. How long had he been sitting there? How long had I been unconscious?"Zevran." My voice came out hoarse and broken. "What happened? Where are we?""Noctis." Relief flooded his face. "We are home. You have been unconscious for four

  • Dear Alpha, I’m Far Gone   Chapter 119: Cost

    Zevran's POVCalista collapsed in my arms and the world stopped moving.One moment she was conscious and talking and alive. The next she went limp and silent. Her eyes closed. Her breathing slowed. The bond between us felt thin and fragile like a thread about to snap. I caught her before she hit the ground and held her against my chest. Her skin was too cold. Her heartbeat too faint. She was slipping away and I could not stop it."Calista." I shook her gently. "Calista, wake up. You did it. You won. Open your eyes."Nothing. She did not respond. Did not move. Just lay there limp and broken in my arms. The woman who destroyed the source. Who saved every kingdom. Who fought harder than anyone should have to. She gave everything and now there might be nothing left."Is she alive?" Kaelen appeared beside me. His face was pale. "Zevran, is she breathing?"

  • Dear Alpha, I’m Far Gone   Chapter 118: Breaking Free

    Calista's POVThe shadow whispered again and its voice was honey and poison mixed together."Let go. Embrace the darkness."No. The word formed in my mind like steel. Like a blade cutting through lies. I would not let go. Would not embrace anything the fragment offered. I was Calista. Queen of Noctis. Mate to Zevran. Survivor of Vargath. I was not some puppet to be controlled by the Council's dying weapon."You cannot fight forever," the shadow said. "You are only human. Only weak. Only one small woman against centuries of power. Why not rest? Why not accept what you cannot change?"Because I was not weak. I proved that over and over. I survived Alistair's fists and cruelty. I escaped a kingdom that wanted me dead. I built a new life from nothing. I faced assassination attempts and political warfare and stood strong through all of it. One corrupted fragment was not going to break me now."Calista." Zevran's voice cut through the whispers. "I know you are fighting. I feel it through ou
