The forest went quiet, the wind seemed to have died down by now. Zara stood frozen in the corner, her eyes were fixed in the direction of the abandoned village.here The echo of the gunshot still rang in her ears, it hasn't faded. Her wolf whimpered, something terrible had happened."We have to go back," she whispered.Kael looked at her, she couldn't read the expression on his face."Zara." Kael called out to her. "We can't just leave him out there.""I know but we have to go.""No, you don't." Her voice cracked. "He stayed behind for us, he knew exactly what he was doing.""And if we go back now?" Kael asked gently. "We'll walk straight into thirty Belmar soldiers."She opened her mouth to argue but just cold air came out because even though she went back, Kael was right. They could get killed. * * * * * * They continued toward the north, no one spoke. They continued walking in silence. Even Rynese didn't say a word, he kept walking with his head bowed down, even Valkyrie seemed

Kael was back on his feet within minutes, he insisted on it because Zara didn't want him standing up almost immediately."I'm fine," he said for what felt like the tenth time.No one believed him especially not Zara. She walked beside him in complete silence, watching him from the corner of her eye. His breathing had steadied, his color had returned, and outwardly he looked exactly like himself, but she had seen it. Those black eyes, those veins. For one terrifying second, he hadn't looked like Kael at all, he had looked like something else like something buried deep inside him.* * * * * * "You should rest." Kael sighed. "We've already had this conversation.""And we're having it again, I'm not stopping." Zara sighed, her face looking worried. "You're injured.""No, let's be realistic here... I'm cursed.""Exactly." Zara looked furious, they were both cursed but he seemed to have forgotten that.He looked at her, amused despite the situation."I don't think that's helping your argum

Zara was moving before Kael finished speaking. She hurried back to the camp and knelt beside Valkyrie first, placing a hand over her shoulder."Wake up." Valkyrie's eyes opened instantly.She didn't ask questions. Years of training had taught her to recognize matters like this. "What happened?""We're not alone, we have people with us."By then, Rynese was already sitting up, rubbing sleep from his eyes. "If this is another one of your early morning walks, Kael, I swear..." He stopped talking when he saw Kael standing at the edge of the clearing with his sword drawn."...Never mind." The joke disappeared from his face. He reached for his own weapon and stood up immediately. "What do we have?""Don't know yet," Kael answered quietly. "But they're getting closer."Everyone fell silent, the footsteps were slow and getting clearer now, not like those mindless rush of the Fringe vampires they had fought before.These people weren't hunting blindly, they knew exactly where they were going

The air underground felt different. It was cool and damp, carrying the smell of wet stone and something much older. Every sound echoed through the narrow passage in the scrape of boots against rock, the occasional drip of water from the ceiling, even the steady rhythm of their breathing.Kael led the way with a small lantern they had taken from Selma's cabin. The flame cast long shadows across the walls, making the carvings seem almost alive as they walked past them.For several minutes, no one spoke. The silence became uncomfortable, it simply felt... appropriate like the tunnel itself demanded respect.Zara ran her fingers lightly across one of the stone walls as they walked, the carvings continued for what felt like miles, some showed wolves standing beside humans. Others showed creatures she had never seen before, there were tall figures with glowing eyes and crowns carved from branches instead of metal."Who built this place?" she asked quietly."I don't know," Kael admitted. "Bu

They spun around just in time to watch the passage they had entered through disappear beneath a slab of solid stone. Valkyrie rushed forward and pressed both hands against it."It sealed itself.""Can you move it?" She shook her head. "Not even a little.""So we're trapped," Rynese muttered."Not trapped." Kael lifted the lantern."We're being directed."Everyone followed the light. Across the chamber, where there had only been a blank wall moments earlier, an opening had appeared. Beyond it stretched a staircase that spiraled downward into darkness.At the very bottom, far below, a faint golden light shimmered. It wasn't bright enough to reveal what waited there only enough to make them come closer.Zara felt her wolf stir uneasily, whatever lies beneath the marsh...They were getting closer to it, closer to the truth about the Codex, closer to the Shadow King's curse, and somehow, closer to the destiny that had been waiting for her long before six mates had turned their backs on her.
