CHAPTER 141

THE GUARDIAN’S FINAL BETRAYALCASSIENFind the Origin.And when you find her, kill her before she remembers who you truly are.The voice faded, but its words remained inside my head.I stared at the black symbol spreading across my chest.A circle. A violet line.And beneath it, a tiny silver blade pointing toward my heart.My Mate Mark had never looked like this.Neither had the ancient symbol that appeared when the First Guardian’s power awakened.Whatever was happening to me, it had nothing to do with the bond I shared with Ellia.This was something older. Something that had been waiting for me.“No,” I whispered.The symbol pulsed.Your final purpose has been activated.I pressed my hand against it.“I’m not killing her”The voice didn’t answer.I tightened my arms around Ellia’s unconscious body.

CHAPTER 142

THE GUARDIAN WHO CHOSE HERELLIADarkness had a sound.It sounded like a thousand voices screaming beneath the weight of an endless ocean. It sounded like the universe holding its breath. And it sounded like Cassien calling my name.“Ellia!”I tried to answer him. Nothing came out.I couldn’t feel my mouth, my hands, or even the beating of my heart. I couldn’t feel the ground beneath me because there was no ground.There was only darkness.And Vael. OkHis presence surrounded me like an invisible cage, pressing against whatever remained of my existence.“You should have listened to me,” he whispered.His voice came from everywhere.“You should have remembered who you were before you became so desperately attached to the insignificant lives you created.”I tried to summon my power. Nothing happened.The First Origin was gone.

CHAPTER 143

THE NAME BEFORE CASSIENCASSIEN“Elaria.”The name left my mouth before I could stop it.The moment I spoke it, the void shattered.Silver light erupted from my body, spreading through the darkness in enormous waves. The crown-shaped mark on my chest burned so fiercely that I dropped to my knees, clutching at it.I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t think.And suddenly, I wasn’t Cassien Kristof anymore.I was standing beneath a sky filled with dead stars.A woman stood before me, her golden hair flowing down her back. She wore a white dress embroidered with silver symbols, and a crown rested upon her head.She looked like Ellia. But she wasn’t Ellia.Her face carried the same delicate features, the same stubborn set to her jaw, and the same strange sadness that always appeared in Ellia’s eyes when she thought nobody was watching.Yet something about her was differe

CHAPTER 144

THE BROTHER WHO CAME BEFORECASSIEN“Hello, little brother.”The words echoed through the void.For several seconds, I couldn’t move.I stared at the man sitting upon the throne, unable to understand what I was seeing.He had my face. My silver eyes. My jaw.The same scar above my left eyebrow.Even the faint crease between his brows was identical to mine.

CHAPTER 145

The Thing Before EverythingELLIAThe heartbeat came again.Once. Twice.And on the third beat, the stars above the throne went out.Not one by one. All at once.The silver barriers holding my family trembled. The black flames surrounding Caelum’s throne vanished. Even the darkness beneath the throne seemed to recoil, as though whatever lay within it had taken its first breath in an eternity.Caelum was on his knees.Caelum.The first Guardian.The being who had imprisoned me in countless lives, who had manipulated my memories and turned love into a cage.He was trembling.Elyra stood frozen, the First Origin lying at her feet. Her violet eyes had widened, and for the first time since she had torn my power from my chest, I saw something in her expression that resembled genuine fear.Cassien stepped in front of me.His silver-star crown glowed above his head, its light spreading ac

CHAPTER 146

The Child I AbandonedELLIAThe little girl smiled at me.And the universe began to die.It started with the stars.One moment, they were burning beyond the broken walls of the chamber. The next, they disappeared, leaving behind empty spaces where light had existed since the beginning of time.Then came the silence. Not ordinary silence. The kind that swallowed sound before it could be made.Cassien shouted my name, but I heard nothing. I saw his mouth moving, his silver-star crown flickering above his head as he fought against the force dragging him toward the floor.My family was on their knees.Aether struggled to stand. Catherine held Logan’s hand, while Aurelian tried to shield Seraphina with his body. Caelum had collapsed beside the throne, his black armor dissolving into ash.And Elyra—Elyra was staring at the child with an expression I had never seen on her face before.Recogniti

CHAPTER 147

The Command That Broke the GuardianELLIAThe sword pierced my chest.For one impossible moment, I felt nothing.No pain. No fear.Only the familiar warmth of Cassien’s hand against mine, the memory of his lips on my forehead, and the echo of every promise we had ever made.Then the pain came.I gasped.Black energy spread from the wound, crawling beneath my skin like living shadows. My knees buckled, and Cassien caught me before I hit the floor.He held me against him.The same arms that had carried me through battle.The same hands that had held me when I cried. The same man who had promised never to let destiny choose for him.Now his sword was buried in my heart.His eyes remained black. His expression remained empty. But a tear slid down his cheek.“Cassien,” I whispered.His grip tightened.The sword pushed deeper.A scream tore from so
