She didn't know what she was directing it towards. Was it Bennett? Her mother? Was it Italy? Leo? Her freedom? She was not sure if it even made sense or not, all she knew was that her life didn't have any meaning. She had always been materialistic and wasted money on useless things and parties. She had been nothing but selfish, always looking out for her own gain. Sh

He paused for a long moment before saying, “I suppose at this point it won’t matter. We are heading for Eden.” “Eden?” I exclaimed softly in complete lack of understanding as to where that was. “Yes, at least that’s what the Nazis called it. Never been there myself, but I’m sure that it’s a regular goose marching paradise.” My mind searched for clues as to what made sense of what I was hearing. Pulling on memory I said, “Do you mean Antarctica, the part of it called New Swabia by the Germans in World War II?” “Well, now, you do know a thing or two, don’t you my dear. No bad American blonde jokes for you, although I do detect a little something else other than American.”

Idaliah flashed her a tearful smile, closed her eyes and bowed her head with her right hand on her chest. Speechless, Adeline stood up, but she only stood there, her hands shaking and chest burning as the chains shook with kneels after kneels that followed when Idaliah herself kneeled. She absentmindedly looked around and found fifty hearts offered and fifty heads lowered for her. "Alpha."

"Rei, get the car. We're going out. Take him with us." A couple of half-naked women were clinging to him on all sides when he got up from bed. He carelessly shoved them aside without paying them any attention. While he waited for Asia to wake up, he had tried drugs and women, but if that single person was in close vicinity to him, how could he settle down?

It was quite tall and magnificent, famously known as the Sanctuary Tower.

Let everything go back to normal. Normal. The word tasted like ash. I turned the water off and stood dripping in the quiet. Steam swirled around me thick and heavy. But I didn’t want normal, all I want is her. And that scared me more than any slap Ethan could throw.

Five pulses answered the question before any mouth could. Ashar looked at his hands as flame curled around his palms without burning him. “I am Ashar of Veydrin,” he said, but the name carried more weight than before. The air behind him shimmered with images of a civilization made of fire, stone, blood oath, and sanctuary towers built into mountains. Then those towers fell in silence, and the last flame entered him like a crown returning to its owner. “God of preservation,” he said, as if confessing to a crime.

It started low in my bones, then spread outward, into the ground itself, into the air that held its breath. Word had already passed. Draven’s raiders were gone. The borders quiet. The Bone Moon risen full and clean. They thought tonight would bring a declaration. A name for the next to lead. A binding to replace the broken one. I knew better. The ash marked the ground like a grave. The circle was drawn with care, each line traced by those who had survived too many fires to mistake ritual for peace. The flame burned white without smoke, its heart threaded with a faint shimmer of spiral energy. I could taste it on my tongue, metallic and familiar.

“It doesn’t stay. It comes and disappears.” Cassian pretended to look disappointed. He wore his shirt back on and used his fingers to adjust his hair. “You should go to sleep,” he said. “You should return to your dorm too,” Julianne said to him. Cassian walked to the window and before he jumped out, he turned and said to her, “Goodnight Ash.” “Good…night.” Julianne said those words in her head. She watched him disappear in the night and she moved to the window, looking around to see where he had gone, but there was no sign of him. She released a sigh and pushed her head back in before shutting the window.

A deep, resonant chime, like that of a massive bell, echoed from the Aegis of Faith. Then, the golden barrier shattered into shimmering fragments. Sheena coughed up another mouthful of blood, yet the light in her eyes did not dim. Instead, it burned even brighter. The invincible sword energy finally dissipated into the air like faint smoke, and with it, all of Sheena's defenses collapsed completely. Yet, from the ashes, a phoenix rose!

I knew he had shown up to help us but I had no idea how e fit into the questions I had asked Alisa. “What do you mean?” I asked her confused. “Eden. Eden is dead,” Alisa sobbed.
