Saphire: Blood Huntress CHAPTER 71
I spread the maps across the table before sunrise, and by the time the first light reaches the fortress windows, I have already covered half the surface with notes.The attacks should make sense. That is what bothers me. They don't.I stare at the western border map while drinking cold tea, because I forgot about it almost an hour ago.Three attacks happened along the northern territory and two occurred along the eastern border.Then came Dante's disastrous strike through the western valley.At first glance, there is nothing unusual about any of them.The locations are different. The timing is different. The enemy tactics are different. But when I place the maps beside one another, something begins bothering me.I reach for a piece of charcoal and circle the first attack.Then the second. Then the third and I draw lines between them.The pattern appears. Then disappeared and I frown."No." I said as I move the eastern map closer.The pattern isn't disappearing. It is changing. I lean
Saphire: Blood Huntress CHAPTER 70
Saphire's POVI don't sleep. I lie in bed for hours, staring at the ceiling while Dante's final words replay inside my head.If you walk away again... I won't come after you next time.I close my eyes, but that only makes it worse.I see his face. I see the disappointment in his eyes and I hear the way his voice cracked when he admitted that not knowing where he stood with me was hurting him more than rejection.I should have stopped him. I should have opened the door and called his name. I should have told him the truth.But what is the truth anymore?That I still love him?That I don't know whether I can return to the life I had before?That I still want him while simultaneously becoming someone he might no longer recognize?None of those answers seem sufficient.Eventually, I throw the blankets aside and sit up. The room is dark, and the fortress beyond my window is silent except for the distant movement of guards.I get dressed, brush my teeth, and pull my hair into a loose braid
Saphire: Blood Huntress CHAPTER 69
Saphire's POVThe fortress is quiet when I return. Too quiet.The battle still echoes inside my head, and every time I close my eyes, I see Dante covered in blood.I see him fighting through impossible odds. I see him refusing to retreat. I see him looking at me after I stepped between him and death.The memory follows me through every corridor. Through every stairwell and through every breath.I should feel relieved that he survived. Instead, I feel unsettled because the moment I saw him falling to one knee, every lesson Varek taught me disappeared.Control vanished. Strategy vanished and reason vanished.I moved without thinking. Without calculating and without considering consequences. I simply moved.The realization should bother me but instead, it terrifies me how natural it felt. I enter my room and shut the door behind me.For several moments, I simply stand there. The silence feels heavy and oppressive.My hands still tremble slightly. I hate that. After everything I have lear
Saphire: Blood Huntress CHAPTER 68
Dante's POVBlood runs into my eyes and my shoulder burns. My ribs feel like they've been shattered. Yet I keep fighting because stopping means dying and dying means never seeing Saphire again.The battlefield has become a nightmare of steel, screams and moonlit violence.Bodies cover the ground and the warriors who followed me are scattered across the valley. Some are still fighting, some are wounded and some aren't moving at all.The guilt should be crushing me but instead, rage keeps me standing. An enemy warrior charges.I block his strike and drive my sword into his chest and he falls. Another replaces him. Then another and the ambush never seems to end.Somewhere behind me, Marcus shouts."Dante!" Marcus yelled.I turn just in time to see three warriors closing in from the left. Too many. Too fast and too close. I prepare to meet them anyway.Then something moves through the battlefield. Fast. Unnaturally fast.A blur of motion explodes from the darkness. One warrior falls befo
Saphire: Blood Huntress CHAPTER 67
Dante's POVThe forest is silent. Too silent and I notice it immediately, but I ignore the feeling twisting in my gut because all I can think about is reaching the fortress.Reaching Saphire and bringing her home.Moonlight filters through the trees while our small group moves through the darkness. Six warriors follow me, and every one of them volunteered despite Luca's objections and Travis's warnings.I should feel responsible for them. I should be calculating risks. I should be thinking three steps ahead. Instead, my thoughts keep drifting toward Saphire.Every mile we cover feels too slow. Every obstacle feels like an insult. Every delay feels unbearable.We stop briefly near a ridge overlooking the valley.The fortress stands in the distance. Massive, dark and waiting.My chest tightens the moment I see it. She's in there. Somewhere behind those walls."That's closer than I expected." One of the warriors muttered and I nodded."We keep moving." I said."Dante." He said and I glan
Saphire: Blood Huntress CHAPTER 66
Saphire's POVThe dream starts with Dante. It always does lately. I see him standing in the clearing where we used to train and sunlight filters through the trees while he watches me with that stubborn expression that always made me want to argue with him.For a moment, everything feels normal. Safe. Then the ground begins to crack beneath our feet.Darkness spreads across the forest and shadows swallow the trees one by one while Dante reaches for me. I run toward him as he runs toward me.But the distance between us keeps growing. No matter how fast I move, I cannot reach him."Saphire." Danye yelled as his voice echoes through the darkness."Saphire." He yelled again.I wake with a sharp breath. The room is still dark, and my heart pounds against my ribs while sweat clings to my skin.For several seconds, I sit perfectly still. Then I force myself to breathe. Slowly and carefully.The word has become impossible to escape so I throw the blankets aside and walk toward the washroom. Co
