Save Me, Claim Me Chapter 153 : The Path Back
Tessa POVThe path back was different. Quieter.Even the air felt heavier now, thick with what I carried. The statues seemed older. The leaves less luminous. As if the forest itself had heard what I’d learned… and mourned for me.No birdsong. No wind. Only the slow, steady beat of my boots on dark earth and the echo of the Seer’s words threading through my mind like wire.At the forest’s edge, the others waited. Rylan was already striding toward me, his stance alert but his expression unreadable. He didn’t speak. Just scanned my face, nodded once, and fell in beside me. Galen approached slower. Eyes sharp. Careful. As if gauging whether I was still entirely… me.I didn’t answer the questions I saw there. Not yet.We walked in silence, the others following behind. The trees thinned with every step, but the hush didn’t lift. And just before the veil of bone-colored trunks fully released us back into the world, I stopped and turned.The Seer’s hut was gone. Not just dark. Gone.The clear
Save Me, Claim Me Chapter 152 : Visions In The Smoke
Tessa POVI stared into the fire.The flames didn't crackle. They whispered. Not in words - but in sounds I almost recognized. A lullaby. A warning.“Love or life,” I echoed.The Seer didn’t speak. Just watched. As if she already knew which one I’d choose. I curled my hands into fists, nails biting into skin.“How many times has this happened?” I asked.Her head tilted, braids shifting like river reeds in windless water. “This? Only once. You are the only one who lived long enough to reach this part of the thread.”I swallowed the rising heat in my throat. “So I’m a mistake.”“No,” she said. “You are a correction.”“Then what was Velarion?”Her eyes turned sharper, gold flecks flickering. “A wound.”A pause. “He was born of broken oaths. A child conceived in sacrifice, raised in silence. The Council took pieces of ancient bloodlines, bent them through time and death, and forced him into being. Not as a weapon. As a gatekeeper.”“For what?”“The Otherworld. The Hollow Between. The real
Save Me, Claim Me Chapter 151 : The Whisper Before the Storm
Dorian POV The camp wasn’t quiet. It never was, not anymore. But this silence had a different edge - taut, like the string of a drawn bow.I stood near the central fire pit, scanning the perimeter. Warriors moved like shadows through mist, their armor etched with ash and fresh blood. Scouts had returned from the southern watch - no signs of movement except of few feral rouges. Still, I didn’t trust the stillness. Not here. Not now.Because Tessa was gone. And I felt the hollow space in the bond like an exposed nerve.“She’s alive,” Kael said in my mind, low and calm. “And focused. That’s why it feels distant. Not broken.”“I know.” But knowing didn’t quiet the clawing urge to go after her.Rylan sat sharpening his blade beside Galen and two of the new Highland warriors. Their fire crackled, a buffer against the creeping cold that had begun to gather despite the season.They’d felt it too. The shift in the air. Like the world holding its breath.“Any sign of Council movement?” I asked
Save Me, Claim Me Chapter 150 : The Seer's Sanctuary
Tessa POVThe path swallowed sound.No birdsong. No breath of wind. Only the low pulse of my own heartbeat and the rhythmic crunch of our boots on blackened roots.The further we walked, the more the forest forgot how to be a forest.Leaves above us shimmered with silver veining, glowing faintly as though lit from within. The trees themselves had no bark - just twisted trunks that seemed carved from bone and obsidian. Lanterns hung between them without ropes, suspended midair by some quiet, unnatural force. Their green flames burned without heat.It felt like walking into the heart of a memory that didn’t belong to me."Sable?" She didn’t answer. Not in words. But I felt her. Alert. Coiled. Guarded.Rylan had drawn closer, as if keeping his body between mine and whatever might slither from the dark. Galen’s expression never changed, but his blade remained loose in his grip.We passed statues - if you could call them that. Shapes hunched and bent, twisted into prayer or pain. Some loo
Save Me, Claim Me Chapter 149 : Entry Into The Seer’s Domain
Tessa POVThe air thickened with every step forward.It clung to my skin like damp silk, cool and heavy. The trees grew stranger here - trunks twisting in impossible spirals, bark blackened and veined with glowing blue cracks that pulsed like veins. No birds. No insects. Just silence, so complete it made the crunch of hooves on frostbitten leaves sound obscene.We were no longer on a road. We were inside something.The forest had teeth. I could feel it watching us.Rylan shifted in his saddle, mouth tight. “If anything moves that isn’t us, I’m stabbing first and asking questions in the afterlife.”“Fine,” I said. “Just don’t stab the Seer.”“That depends. Does she do the creepy prophecy voice thing?”Galen didn’t answer. His sword was already drawn, resting across his lap like an extension of his spine. The five warriors behind us rode in silence, but I could sense their tension building with each stride. One whispered a prayer under his breath - to the Moon Goddess, or to anything th
Save Me, Claim Me Chapter 148 : The Road to Gloamwood
Tessa POVThe sun had barely risen.A pale light spilled across the camp, soft and golden, trying to wash away the ash that still clung to every tent, every bootprint, every memory. But the ground didn’t forget. And neither did I.I stood just outside the tent, my fingers tight on the leather straps of my pack. Behind me, Dorian hadn’t moved. Not much. Not since I stepped away from the bed and began dressing quietly in the dim light.He leaned against the central post now, arms crossed, shirt half-buttoned, hair a dark mess of sleep and war. Watching me like he might memorize the way I tied my boots.“Say something,” I said quietly.He pushed off the post. Closed the distance between us in three strides. His hands settled on my hips - not pulling, not holding. Just… there. Warm. Real.“You know I hate this,” he murmured.“I know.”“But you have to go.”“I do.”His jaw tensed, the muscle in his cheek twitching once. “Take Rylan. Galen. Five more - you pick them yourself.”“I already di
