Semua Bab Bound by Blood, Fated to the Two Alphas : Bab 121 - Bab 130

THIRD PERSON POV "She's dead already."Kael stopped walking. His hand was on the metal door. Behind him, Ronan was breathing hard."What?" Kael said quietly.Darius came out of the dark corner. His clothes were ripped and bloody. His eyes looked crazy. He was holding something in his arms. It was Celeste. She wasn't moving. Her head hung down wrong."I said she's dead. Your girl. Just like my Celeste."The smell hit them. Death. Blood. Bad things.Ronan made an angry sound. "You're lying.""No?" Darius pushed his face against Celeste's cold cheek. "Go look. Third room. She's getting cold now."Kael felt sick. His wolf was angry inside him. It wanted to kill. But Kael was scared."Ronan. Go find her."Ronan ran into the dark hallway. Kael could hear his feet on the concrete floor.Darius kept talking. He held Celeste like she might wake up. "You know what it feels like? When will they die? When will they stop breathing?""You're sick.""No. I'm in love. Real love. The kind that doesn'

Celeste's POVCold,everything was cold.The floor under my back was hard concrete. It smelled like death and blood. Like things that should be buried.But I wasn't dead.Not anymore.I opened my eyes slow. The world looked different. Colors were brighter. Sounds were louder. I could hear a mouse moving in the wall twenty feet away. Could smell fear and pain soaked into the concrete around me.I sat up. My body moved wrong. Too smooth. Too easy. Like I was floating instead of moving.The den was quiet now. Bodies everywhere. Darius's men scattered around like broken toys. Blood on the walls. Holes in the concrete from bullets and claws.I looked down at myself. My clothes were torn and bloody. But my skin was perfect. No wounds. No cuts. Just pale white skin that seemed to glow in the dark.And on my chest, over my heart, was a mark I'd never seen before.It looked like a crescent moon made of silver fire. It pulsed with my heartbeat. Each pulse sent warmth through my whole body.The M

Celeste's ReturnI went outside that morning. Something felt wrong inside of me. The air was heavy, it was like before a storm was about coming.My feet took me to the garden. I don't know why, I went towards that direction. I just walked there. Then I saw her.She stood by the old rose bush. Her back was to me. But I knew it was her. I knew that shape. Those shoulders. That hair."Celeste?"I said it so quietly. Maybe I didn't really say it at all.She turned around slow.I stepped back fast. My heart went crazy. This was not real. Celeste was dead. I held her when she died, I touched her, I….. I knew her heart stopped working. I felt her stop breathing.But there she was. Looking at me with those green eyes. The same eyes, that slowly closed before me. But different too. They were bright. Like water in sunlight."Hi Elara."Her voice was hers but not hers. It made my skin feel funny. Like when you hear a song you love but can't remember where from. Or was it an illusion playing in

RONAN'S POV The temple was really cold tonight. I could see my breath when I walked in. Like little puffs of smoke.Nobody else was there. Just me and all the old stones and stuff.I wasn't supposed to be here this late but I couldn't sleep. My brain wouldn't stop thinking about Elara. About how sad she looked when Kael walked away. About everything that happened today.My shoes made loud sounds on the floor. Echo. Echo. Echo. Like the temple was saying something back to me.I saw this door I never went through before. It was behind the big stone table where they do ceremonies. The door was open a tiny bit. Maybe someone forgot to close it all the way.I pushed it and it made a really loud creak sound.Inside was super dusty. It made my nose tickle. There were lots of shelves with old books and papers rolled up. Some looked so old they might break if you touched them.But then I saw something weird.A rolled up paper sitting on a table by itself. It looked different. Not as old as th

Celeste sat by her window. She looked really tired. Like she hadn't slept in days and days.Her hands were shaking a little bit. She kept staring at them like they weren't really hers."I have to do something," she whispered to nobody. "I have to fix what I broke."She thought about all the bad things that happened. How she helped Darius try to bring people back from the dead. How that made a big rip in the world. How dark scary things started coming through that rip.It was all her fault. At least that's what she kept telling herself.Down the hall she could hear Elara coughing. She'd been sick a lot lately. Probably because of the baby. Celeste felt even worse when she heard it.Elara was gonna have a baby and the world wasn't safe anymore. Because of what Celeste did.She had to fix it.Celeste knew about the Shadowlands. Everyone knew about them but nobody talked about them much. It was the place where dead people went. Where spirits lived. Where really bad things happened to peop
