Elixir’s POV

Their silence said everything

The next morning none of the Alphas spoke of the dream I knew we all had

I’d dreamed of their deaths again

Only this time I didn’t scream when I woke

I didn’t need to

The screams had already settled in my chest

Lucian nodded once “They’re not done They want her marked”

Soren added nothing but I saw the faint glow beneath his wrist—his bond mark still there faint barely alive like mine

Not because I believed them

But because I wanted to believe I wasn’t wrong to feel what I felt

“You don’t have to go to them,” Soren said quietly “They’ll bring the choice to you”

He was right

They didn’t need to pull me into the veil again
