Her Hidden Power
“Do not hold back, Aria. Remember, control, not fear.”
Her heart pounded, adrenaline surging as the bond pulsed violently. She extended her hands fully, letting the light flow without restraint, but the shadows didn’t retreat fully they circled, waiting, probing, teasing. They were learning, and she realized with a chill that this was only the beginning.
A sudden whisper echoed in her mind, soft, almost imperceptible, yet cold and commanding: You cannot hide. You belong to us.
Aria staggered back, fear flaring, but Damon’s hand steadied her. “Ignore it. It’s trying to manipulate you,” he said, voice firm, grounding. “Focus on the bond. Focus on what you control.”
