Chapter 422LUMINAI sat in Xenois's office the next evening, surrounded by the people who'd become our inner circle, and tried to find the words to explain something I'd been keeping secret for six months.The room felt too small despite its spacious dimensions. Zade and Lyn occupied the couch, Rivers standing protectively behind them with Thorne mirroring his position near Xenois's desk. Lynn had claimed one of the armchairs, her healer's eyes already assessing me with concern. Silvia and Samuel stood by the window, their expressions carefully neutral but radiating the kind of tension that came from knowing something significant was about to be revealed."Thank you all for coming," Xenois started, his hand finding mine where we sat together behind his desk. "We—Lumina and I—need to tell you something. Something that explains the heart attack and a lot of other things that probably haven't made sense.""You're scaring us," Lyn observed quietly. His gravity manipulation abilities were

Chapter 424LUMINA"I'll help," Lynn offered immediately. "I have contacts in magical communities who might know about entities like Janice. If she's old enough to manipulate time, someone has to have encountered her before.""And I'll coordinate with other healers," Lyn added. "See if anyone has medical knowledge about preventing or reversing cardiac events triggered by supernatural forces. The heart attack was a warning. Maybe if we understand the mechanism, we can find a way to protect Lumina when Janice comes to collect."I watched them mobilize, watched these people who'd become family refuse to accept what I'd already resigned myself to, and felt something warm bloom in my chest alongside the fear."Thank you," I said quietly. "All of you. For not just—for not accepting this. For fighting even when I've already given up.""We don't give up on family," Zade said firmly. "That's not how this works. You gave yourself a second chance and used it to save everyone around you. Now it's

Chapter 426XENOIS"I got you killed in another timeline," Riley said flatly."No, Sophia got him killed," I corrected. "And me. And Lumina. We all failed in that timeline because we were being manipulated by someone who'd spent years perfecting her control techniques. But this isn't that timeline, Riley. This is the one where we got it right.""Because Mom died and came back knowing what to look for," Riley said."Because someone gave me a second chance," Lumina agreed. "And that brings us to the part of this conversation you really need to understand."She explained about Janice—the necromancer who'd sent her back, the promise she'd made and broken, the debt that was now coming due. I watched our children's faces as they processed increasingly impossible information.Lake looked confused but accepting—he dealt with dimensional portals daily, so time manipulation probably didn't seem that far-fetched. Ollie seemed scared but trying to be brave. Riley's expression was calculating, his

Chapter 428THORNEI crouched in the darkness behind an abandoned warehouse on the eastern edge of Jerome's primary operational territory, watching my strike team make final equipment checks, and tried to ignore the crawling sensation between my shoulder blades that suggested something was about to go catastrophically wrong."Comms check," I whispered into my radio. "All teams report in."The responses came in sequence—Alpha Team positioned at the northern compound, Beta securing the western safe house, Gamma ready to breach the southern supply cache. Twelve separate strike forces spread across four territories, all waiting for my signal to attack simultaneously.It was the largest coordinated offensive operation our coalition had ever attempted. And it was about to kick off in approximately three minutes."We're really doing this," Marcus said beside me, his enhanced hearing probably picking up movement inside the warehouse that my normal senses couldn't detect yet. "Actually declari
