Beyond Redemption
“Aaron’s presence isn’t something you can erase with rituals. He’s tied to my past — to what I was before. But I’m not that person anymore. And if he comes back again, I’ll face him. Not as his victim, but as his equal.”
The Elders exchanged glances, murmuring among themselves.
Finally, Maren spoke again, more cautiously. “Then prove it.”
“Prove it how?” I asked.
“There’s a way to test if your soul is truly pure,” she said. “A summoning circle. It will draw out any remaining trace of corruption. If Aaron’s essence still clings to you, it will manifest.”
Edward’s voice was sharp. “Absolutely not.”
But I surprised him. “I’ll do it.”
