Semua Bab Moonlight Knows My Name : Bab 41 - Bab 50

Eve’s POVIt had been a whole week since Morwenna’s visit, I had not stop thinking about everything and the constant shadow I had been seeing wasn’t helping and I wasn’t sure it was just my imagination playing tricks on me. I could even afford to be unsure. First things first, Danny, I pondered on his safety, if Astrid was going to try to end me completely, she would kill him, I was sure. I needed him to be away from my curse, the only place I knew was the only person I knew aside Malik…Tess Myself and Malik finalized the whole arrangement and here I was… Tess’s house smelled the same and felt the same, cozy, familiar and warm. I stood by the doorway watching Danny play with the toy cars he insisted on bringing with him to his little vacation. Watching him laugh made me warm, he was completely unaware of the darkness looming around us. I stayed still trying to memorize the sound, his laughter, his whining, they would be strength I need in this fight. I had not noticed Tess walking t

Malik’s POVComing here, I had rehearsed and imagined how the conversation would go, I expected her to yell, to curse or perhaps use of her spells to turn me to dust, but she didn’tShe just stood there, her arms folded. “So this is it,? She asked quietly. “I knew you would choose her, but you’re saying it to me…directly. It’s unbelievable.” Her voice didn’t crack. “I’m sorry, Mo.” I managed. “What we had was great and I cherished every moment, but you see, we were built on debt and confusion. I owed you for saving me at some point and you felt you owed me too. It wasn’t love, we were only bound by gratitude.” She let out a bitter laugh. “Of course…I knew that.” She stepped closer. “ You were half dead and angry with your world and your creator, Malik. I healed you thinking it would heal me too, even if you never knew I healed you.” My eyes widened in shock, she shrugged. “But she…” her gaze flickered. “I see how alive she makes you.” It didn’t sound like jealousy to me, it was

Malik’s POVMorwenna stood under the moonlight, her eyes glowing faintly as she murmured to the spirits. Her hair stayed wild and unbound moving with the wind that carried things I couldn’t see. When she turned to us, her expression was grim. “They are restless.” She said, “The balance is breaking, something A has shifted in Blackthorn.” I exchanged a confused look with Eve. Her brows knit. “Shifted? What do you mean?.” She asked “The veil between the living and the forgotten has thinned.” Morwenna answered sharply. “ Whatever is coming, it’s already begun. We need to go back” “Blackthorn was in danger.” It was all I knew she meant. I felt a pang of hurt in my chest as I thought of Dorian losing himself to dust. “When do we leave?” I asked. Morwenna’s eyes flicked towards me. “Before dawn, if we wait , the paths will close. The forest won’t let us through.” I nodded. So caught up in the thought of losing my brother, I had forgotten about Eve and her resolve against Blackthorn fo

Eve’s POV I had barely slept, my wolf hadn’t either. She constantly stirred beneath my skin, I could hear her muttering at the back of my mind that something was seriously wrong. Malik had gone to scout near the quarters where he had found the injured guard. He promised to be back by noon, we were to speak to Dorian about the situation and why we were here but the farther we walked, the more clarity we had on the dangers of the situation. We had submitted to holding back a while before making our return known to Dorian. Every minute Malik was gone for, made my heart race, Dorian might just blame him for everything if he sees him I let my thoughts wander to Danny, I was relieved that he was just safe with Tess, hidden far away from the mess of all this. I had promised myself that he would never know the sound of wolves tearing themselves apart. For me, hearing that sound was the most normal sound I knew. A knock came at the door. I thought it was Malik but we had already taken to

Eve’s POVThe council hall had long been emptied, wolves had scattered back to their different quarters, I had asked to be left alone, hours later and I wasn't sure if I needed sleep or death for a few minutes. My arraignment had left me with the weight of everything I had left unsaid over the years. Dorian had not left his chamber since the arraignment ended but I had felt his energy across the compound. That cursed link we shared had just simply refused to break no matter how far I ran. I went to him, not because I wanted to though, it was because I had to. If I was going to sleep, if I was going to drop the weight I was tired of carrying The guards didn't stop me…sure they wouldn't even dare. I found him sifted in the war room, standing before the great mal carved into the stone wall. Candles flickered around him, their flames bending towards him. I knew he felt my presence when I entered but he didn't turn to acknowledge. “You shouldn'tbhere.” he said in a low voice “Maybe
