The mirror was a harsh judge, showing every flaw and imperfection with brutal honesty. Despite its intimidating presence, the mirror was also a source of comfort for Miranda. It was a constant reminder of her own beauty and strength. She could see herself growing stronger with every passing day, and the mirror reflected that growth back to her.

Miranda continued, "A broken mirror can never be made whole again. Once there's a crack, it is impossible to return to how things were. I hope you won't waste more time and energy on me, because… I'm not worth it. "You're a businessman, so you understand investment better than I do. Instead of sinking deeper into a project that's bound to fail, it's better to cut your losses sooner.

The hot water provided a physical release, relaxing his tense muscles, but his mind remained a cauldron of seething anger. Steam enveloped the bathroom, a visual representation of the heated emotions coursing through Asher. In a fit of rage, he directed his anger towards a decorative mirror on the wall, pounding it again and again. The bathroom echoed with the sounds of shattered glass, a stark contrast to the calm facade Asher usually presented. This was not the person he wanted to be, and the realization fueled his frustration even more. All of this, he believed, was a consequence of Ezra's actions.

I lunged toward it, fist raised, ready to smash it into a thousand pieces, to silence him once and for all but Damon grabbed my arm, holding me back with surprising strength. “Kaiden! Don’t!” He yelled. “That mirror is the only link we have to help Celine. You break it and we lose everything.” I stood there, trembling, my fist was mere inches away from the glass and my reflection stared back at me.

Some of the threads are dark, broken, frayed at the ends. “That's the damage from the separation,” Maverick murmurs beside me. Clara's hands move over the threads, the golden glow from her palms seeming to feed into them. Slowly, painfully slowly, some of the broken threads start to knit back together. But not all of them. Some are too damaged, too far gone. “Come on,” I whisper. “Please, please work.”
