Chapter 122Lilith POVI was lying against Cassian's chest when I began to feel sleepy.His arm was around my waist, and his fingers moved gently along my back. It had been a long day, and neither of us had said much since we returned to our chambers.For once, we weren't talking about the investigation or the attacks.I was enjoying the quiet."You're unusually quiet," Cassian said."I'm tired.""Then sleep."I looked up at him. "You make it sound so easy."He smiled and kissed my forehead. "It is. Close your eyes."I did, and he pulled me a little closer.I must have fallen asleep because the next thing I knew, I was standing in a dark place. I couldn't see much, but I could feel something approaching me.I turned to look, but there was nothing.Then I felt a strange pressure in my chest. I knew something was wrong. I tried to move away, but the feeling followed me.A faint light appeared around my hands.Before I could understand what was happening, I heard a voice."It's coming."
