Veronica’s POV“Jadeline discovered that Keldor is a spy,” I placed my hands on the round table where I gathered everyone who was part of the plan.It is past midnight. Sebastian and I rushed to meet with everyone after the crystal received the distress signal. Eamon, Soren, Isolde, and Analynn are here with us in the dead of the night.Eamon asked intently, “Are we sure that it’s her?”“That’s the worst thing we have to assume,” I responded to him, glancing for a second before my eyes drop on the stone table once again, “The pendant wouldn’t simply send off a distress signal with just minimal harm,” I uttered, wrapping my arms around myself and biting my thumb, “It was curated to warn us of the most dangerous situation.”“That situation is if Jadeline discovers him,” I added as I looked up to them with a frantic gaze, “We have to save Keldor.”Tension is thick in the air and everyone knows the gravity of this matter. We have gone through all of this before but it is an entirely diffe

Veronica’s POVI woke up with a pounding headache. I was a mess.What was that? It’s unlike any other dream I had before! It’s not my memory and it was creepy. I remembered the feeling more than the actual vision. Who owns that memory? Is it mom’s? Victoria’s? I’m sure that was her. I recognize her. I definitely also did not hallucinate that dream. It felt real. I know it is real. One thing about my abilities that has been already proven, I could go back to the past to some extent.This is too much. The toll of everything lately is much too exhausting.I glanced at the large windows of our chambers. I watched the snow pouring hard like a storm outside. It was already late evening. From last I remember, I slept before the sunset. Just how many hours was I in slumber? The dream felt so short but it seems like time has passed by quickly in my reality. It was jarring to travel back and forth. I don’t know what’s real anymore.Instinctively, I looked around for Sebastian.Because in the

Veronica’s POV“Tomorrow, we will rescue Keldor.”I have gathered my closest aids in our meeting chamber. I have five people with me. Eamon, Soren, Isolde, Analynn and Sebastian. They are currently the only ones I trust about this whole matter. Especially when the suspected traitor in Helios has yet to be discovered. Apparently the triplets are handling that issue.“Jadeline demanded to meet me alone,” I started telling them, “It’s safe for us to follow her demands to ensure that Keldor won’t be harmed.”Sebastian reacted right away beside me. He gave me an incredulous look, “You really think I’d allow you to meet that mad woman on your own?”With a frown and a sigh, I faced him and responded, “I have taken that into consideration already,” I paused while he raise a brow at my claim, “I’ve managed to talk her into allowing you to come with me but you cannot enter the hall where we’ll have our private conversation.”He clicked his tongue and insisted, “I still don’t like that.”“Well,

Veronica's POVOn my way to meet Jadeline, I encountered the person I least expected to see tonight.“Going somewhere, sister?” The figure of a woman emerged from the near corner of the hallway.“Ruby, what a surprise,” I greeted her with a sweet smile, “It's been a while.”Her heels clicked on the cobblestones, there was a haste in her steps as she walked towards me with a mad expression.I don't know why but it seems that her saintly facade has been slipping a lot lately. Or perhaps she just doesn't try to pretend in front of me after I've already discovered her true nature.“Sneaking around aren't you, Veronica? How unladylike,” She gritted out and stopped in front of me.I almost rolled my eyes at her statement. She's so childish. I don't have time to waste on her nonsense.“I could say the same thing to you, Ruby,” I said mockingly. I know she hates it when I act high and mighty around her. I plan on getting on her nerves. “Got lost on your own? You know you shouldn't leave your

Veronica’s POV“You dabble with dark magic?” I exclaimed, my voice raising after I recovered from the initial shock and fear.The figure of the shadow merged with the darkness behind her so it was less eerie. However, there is still the obvious aura of the shadow dancing around her.“This is a whole level of low even for you, Jadeline!” I exclaimed and clutched the armrest of where Keldor was still tied.Dark magic is forbidden for all creatures. It corrupts the user and it topples the balance of nature. The user will forever carry its repercussions. This kind of ability always asks for something in return, double of what it has given— that is why it can perform great feats.The consequences are vile and not worth the risk.I knew she was doing something dubious. She has been manipulative from the start so I wouldn't be shocked by the lengths she would go through.Or at least that's what I thought.I didn't see this coming, not even in my wildest imagination.“It’s not dark magic, dea
