Aira stared at the second heart beating inside her mother and felt the world narrow down to a single unbearable point. Kael shuddered in her arms as the blackness at the edge of his eye surged again, feeding on the shock, on the sight of her mother smiling with a calm that did not belong to any living woman Aira had ever known. She did not let him slip. She locked both hands over his chest and forced herself deeper into the bond, pouring warmth, memory, and fierce stubborn love into the space b

    The baby cried, and for one terrible heartbeat Aira thought the root gate had found its way back into the sound.Kael went rigid beside her, one arm locked around Liora, the other catching Aira before she could stumble into the rain. The blackness at the edge of his eye surged hard, then thinned by a breath when Aira shoved warmth through the bond with everything she had left, every memory of him, every fierce moment he had held her through fear, every promise made in blood and heat and desperate love. “Kael,” she whispered, trembling but fierce, “stay with me. Do not answer the cry. Hold her. Hold on to me.” His breath came ragged and torn. The tiny hand in his palm twitched once and stilled. The newborn in his arms cried again, small and shaky, and this time Aira heard the difference at once. It was not the root gate answering. It was fear. Just fear. The child was frightened by the rain, by the blood, by the body of its grandmother shaking in front of them, and it was calling for t

    Now I know where the child is.The words came from her mother’s mouth in Aira’s own voice, and for one terrible heartbeat the whole world seemed to stop moving. Rain hammered down around them. Kael went rigid beside her, one arm locked around Liora, the other half raised as if he could block the dark with his bare hand. The blackness at the edge of his eye surged once, but Aira was already inside the bond, already shoving warmth through it with every memory she had left. Every time he held her when she was shaking. Every fierce promise he had made that no one would ever take her from them. “Kael,” she whispered, trembling but fierce, “stay with me. Hold her close. Do not let her cry.” His breath came ragged and torn. The tiny hand in his palm twitched once and stilled. The baby in his arms made a small frightened sound, and Aira felt that sound hit straight through her chest like a blade. Not fear of the rain. Not fear of the cold. Fear of the thing wearing her mother’s body and speak

    The root gate was still screaming inside Aira’s chest when her mother stepped forward through the rain and laid both hands over her heart.Aira gasped so hard the pain nearly dropped her to her knees. The thing inside her had already started to spread, cold and hungry, pushing at the edges of her ribs and trying to climb higher, looking for the child, looking for the breath, looking for any opening left in her body. Kael shouted her name behind her, and the sound ripped through the bond so hard she almost lost herself in it. She would not let go. She pressed one hand over her own chest and the other against her mother’s wrist, and for one awful heartbeat she felt everything at once. The rain. The blood. Kael’s terror. Liora’s tiny, frightened breath against his shirt. The root gate twisting inside her like a cold hand searching for a throat. “Kael,” she whispered, voice shaking but fierce, “hold her. Do not let her cry.” He was already doing it. She felt it through the bond. His arms

    The root gate drove itself into Aira’s chest like a hand forced through a wound.Pain exploded through her so fast and so hard that for one terrible heartbeat she could not breathe. The rain vanished. The grass vanished. Kael’s voice became a distant shout behind a wall of thunder and blood. The thing inside her mother hit the deepest place in her body and tried to spread, cold and hungry, looking for the last door it could still force open. Aira’s knees buckled, but she did not fall. She grabbed the root gate with both hands through the rain and the shock and the burning pain in her chest and held on with everything she had left. “No,” she gasped, teeth clenched so hard her jaw ached. “Not my child. Not my body.”Kael roared her name and took one step forward before the bond snapped tight between them. She felt his fear slam through her like a wave. Felt the newborn in his arms stir and give a tiny frightened sound. That sound nearly broke her. The blackness at the edge of Kael’s eye

    The root gate lunged for Aira, and she did not run.Kael shouted her name the moment she stepped forward, but she was already moving, already closing the distance between herself and the thing in her mother’s body. The rain slapped her face, cold and sharp, and the bond between her and Kael flared so violently she thought it might tear her in half. She felt his fear, his fury, his desperate need to reach for her, and she shoved warmth back through the bond with everything she had left. “Kael,” she whispered, trembling but fierce, “hold Liora. Do not let her cry. Do not come to me.” His breath came ragged and torn. The blackness at the edge of his eye surged hard, but the tiny hand in his palm twitched once and stilled as she pushed harder through the bond. The newborn in his arms gave a small frightened sound, and Kael tightened instantly, wrapping both arms around the child as if his body alone could keep the dark away.Aira reached her mother at the same moment the root gate struck.

    Aira took one step toward her mother and the rain hit her face like cold needles.Kael was behind her now, one arm wrapped around Liora so tightly the baby was pressed against his chest, the other hand held up as if he could physically stop the dark from reaching them. Aira felt his fear through the bond before she even turned her head. It was raw and sharp and trying so hard not to become panic. She did not let it. She kept both feet under her, kept her shoulders square, and forced warmth into the bond with everything she had left. Every memory of him. Every time he had held her when she was shaking. Every promise he had made in blood and heat and desperate love. “Kael,” she whispered, trembling but fierce, “stay with me. Hold her close. Do not let her cry.” His breath came ragged and torn. She felt the blackness at the edge of his eye flicker, then thin by a breath. The tiny hand in his palm twitched once and stilled. Liora made a small sound against his chest, and Aira’s heart near

    The baby smiled.Aira felt it before she fully understood it, a strange, impossible sensation inside her womb—a tiny shift, a warm curl of presence that should have been innocence and was somehow not. Her breath caught so sharply it hurt.Kael felt the change in her body at once. His head snapped d

    The hand in the basin moved slowly, as if the dark liquid itself were reluctant to give it back.Aira could not breathe.The shape rose higher, fingers first, then a wrist, then the outline of a forearm slick with black reflection. The basin did not ripple like water. It shivered like something ali

    “Now we begin the real opening.”Corvin’s voice was calm.That was the worst part.Not the smoke. Not Nessa’s scream. Not the way the house seemed to bow under the pressure of everything breaking at once.His calm.Aira felt the seal inside her go rigid, hot enough to make her breath snag. The baby

    The pulse from beneath the chamber came again, deeper this time, and the floor shuddered under their feet as if something vast had turned in its sleep. Dust fell from the ceiling in a slow, thin rain. The glowing symbols along the stone walls brightened in response, running in trembling lines towar
