Chapter 61: The Symphony of the Damned

The sound of the Matriarch’s voice emerging from the lips of an infant was a violation of nature that left me paralysed. It was not the soft, gurgling babble of a baby, but a clear, commanding resonance that filled the nursery with a cold, clinical authority. The infant sat upright in the crib, her amber eyes shimmering with that same iridescent gold that had once defined the woman who had tried to destroy us. She looked at us with a gaze far too ancient for her small face, a predatory intelligence that turned the blood in my veins to ice.Alaric did not hesitate. He stepped forward, his body instinctively moving to shield me and Maia, his eyes locking onto the child with a mixture of horror and protective fury. Even without his memories, the predator in him recognised a threat. He didn't know why he felt the need to protect this child, nor did he remember the nightmare of the Glass Labyrinth, but his biological drive to safeguard his own was still pulsing through his veins."What is

The sound of Alaric’s voice as a chorus was the most terrifying thing I had ever heard. It was not just a collection of voices, but a perfect, shimmering harmony that stripped away every shred of his individual identity. He looked at me, and the gold in his eyes was no longer a flicker; it was a flood.

Alaric's hand was still extended toward me, trembling. The tear had dried on his cheek, leaving a silver track.The man lifted the obsidian devic
