Chapter Hundred and Twenty Four

Elara’s POV~

The snow was falling again.

I sat across the long table from where Sabrina’s last letter lay on the table, still open.

But it was the second envelope that I couldn’t get over.

I had almost ignored it was folded tiny, and stuffed behind that main parchment, sealed with silver wax. There was no name. Only a couplet scribbled in wax by some sharp instrument:

To him who has woe of death.

I felt cold when I tore that piece of paper open.

There were no names. No signature. No instructions.

Just a single sentence.

“Some of us wake up with a taste for blood and memory. You were supposed to, if you recall.”

I folded the page once more, more slowly, and slipped it into the inside pocket of my coat before anyone could see. I didn’t tell Lyra. I never mentioned it to Jasmine or Damien. I didn’t even tell Mom.

There was a small niggling fear that if Sabrina knew what I was — what I could still remember from before I’d died — so too might someone else.

And I wasn’t ready for that.

    Elara’s POV~Before sunrise, I found a letter under my bed.No name on it. No signature.But only some recently folded parchment with soft edges and still warm, like it’d been kept there not long ago.At first, I thought it might be from Jasmine or Lyra. Maybe my mother. Another update, another lead. But as soon as I opened the thing, I knew the truth.The handwriting.The slant of the letters, the pressure of the ink.Damien.The words were few.If you knew what I have done, I don’t think you’d let me continue to breathe next to you.There was no flourish. No plea. Only guilt, tightly packed into a sentence that felt like a wound.I read it once.Then again.I didn’t cry.Didn’t scream.Didn’t clench it into a ball that I threw into the fire or boiled up in my fists like I should have.I set it down neatly alongside my sword, instead.Because if Damien believed for one moment that I didn’t know what I saw in his eyes the last few weeks—the way he’d flinch if I got too close, and the

    Damien’s POV~The cold didn’t bother me.Not tonight.Not when I felt this way. I didn’t leave a note. Didn’t inform anyone beforehand that I was going. I left camp in the dark that predawn morning, boots crushing old snow and half-dead pine needles on the ground, my fists balled in my coat pockets like they were keeping something in place.Because I was.I’d hiked a mile when I stopped.And I broke. My knees hit the snow first. Then my hands. I felt as if my bones had failed me, and they might have. I heaved once. Then again. And then I vomited.Not from sickness. From memory.Because I saw her again. Elara.The first time. The only time.She just stood there, icicles forming in her breath, mouth hanging open, eyes wide — no fear, just betrayal. Not you, her eyes had said. Of all people, not you.But it had been me.The trembling hands. The loaded weapon. The quiet gasp. I remembered what I’d said. “I’m sorry.”And I meant it.Gods, I’d meant it. But it hadn’t changed anything.“I wa

    Elara’s POV~The voice resonated in the cave.“You are … the one”.We froze in place. Every fiber of my body ached to move, to unsheath my blade, to flee—but what good would any of that do us?Because the voice wasn’t that of a threat stalking its prey.It was uttered by someone who had already been broken.I looked at the other side of the room. Dim runes along the wall throbbed beneath the surface of the stone, showing the tiniest break in what would have appeared to be solid rock. But as we rounded a corner, the stone faded—an illusion, a flick of magic long dormant—and there, buried in a secret antechamber, was the cage.A sphere.Thick glass with a thousand-layered runes, a few of which were beginning to split. The containment magic glow was shallow and gave off a faint flickering. Inside, hanging in midair, in a swirl of pale energy, was a man.He was tall, broadly built, still too thin, and his skin was so pale it bordered on translucent. There were dull blue veins of light ru

    Lyra’s POV~There are places in the world where silence does not feel empty.It feels alive.Like it’s listening.We arrived at the valley at sunrise. The air had been colder here. Below us was all that was left of the Silver Veil mines were shattered ground, metal and bone poking through the snow.Sabrina had drawn a circle around the location on her map. A small image, the name had Nox written below in red ink.There were no trails down. One false move and you’d be gone under it.“This is the last area for sure?” I questioned, showing the paper to Elara.She nodded. “Winifred confirmed it. But no one has walked into this mine in more than a decade. Not even scouts.”“Because it’s cursed?” Jasmine muttered, adjusting her gloves.“It’s dangerous, that’s why,” Damien crouched by a rotted post with a containment rune on it. “But if Nox is below us… It’s more risky to leave him.”Caspian paused a couple of feet back and swept his glare across the trees with the kind of tension that remin

    Jasmine’s POV~Not all wolves growl when they are trapped.They scream.Kaiya’s howl shook the clearing. It wasn’t rage—it was desperation. Her eyes were blazing. There were wounds on her hands.I was the first to move.Not out of instinct. Out of recognition.I knew that kind of madness.The kind that has you scratch horrifying runes into your skin just to stay awake. Just to remember who you are. Only to out-scream that voice inside your head.“Don’t shift! Fucking hold…” Elara shouted toward Damien, whose hand had gone to a dart full of sedative already.“She’s unstable,” he said, never taking his gaze from the second wolf, a taller, darker shape that slammed along in the trees. “One wrong move, and we’re dead.”“She’s terrified,” I said, taking a step forward, my hands held up.Caspian grabbed my wrist. “Jasmine—”“I won’t hurt her,” I murmured. “I just … I think she’ll hear me.He didn’t let go right away. The movement of his fingers seemed to suggest that they wanted to say some
