Chapter 11

On the evening of the sixth day of the trial, the blood moon's glow painted the rainforest a deep crimson. I caressed the hardened scale I'd just gotten from the 15th nest, smelling faintly of sulfur. It was my ninth token.Just one more step. As long as I returned to the King's Nest and received the tokens from Eros and the others, I could pass the second stage.Just as I was about to return to the King's Nest, that place I called home, a cold mechanical voice tore through the silence:【Initial candidates: 100. current survivors: 3.】Only three were left now. Besides me... a cold premonition seized my throat."Well, look what we have here. Our little "sense-impaired" waste product." a voice dripping with scorn came from the shadows ahead.Safia and Thaine stepped out into the open, like predators patrolling their territory. The fake gentleness from before was gone, replaced by naked arrogance and disdain.Thaine sized me up from head to toe, his gaze assessing me like a piece of merch

The pain I expected never came.A large hand, faster than lightning, clamped around the blade of the dagger. It was Eros. Where the silver met his palm, it hissed, wisps of smoke rising, and the immediate smell of burning flesh filled the air.But his grip was so tight that blood seeped through his fingers, dripping onto my tunic like a blooming red flower.There was no accusation in his eyes, only endless pain and an almost shattered resolve."No, Serina," his voice was strained with pain, yet it held an undeniable strength. "The choice belongs to us."Almost as the words left his lips, Lia, Morgan, and Morgana exchanged a single look. An unspoken understanding passed between them. In that look was sacrifice, a release, and the ultimate interpretation of the word "family.""For Mommy!" Lia screamed, her small body unleashing a final burst of energy as she threw herself toward a sharp rock, aiming straight for her own heart."Live, little lamb." / "Carry our share and live well."
