How much I’ve changed. During the night I find it hard to sleep, so I read until the early morning hours. I’ve already read two old classics and now I’m almost finished with Their Eyes Were Watching God. Time passes quickly and I keep myself busy, but inside I know I am waiting. Waiting for Nikolai’s return. I push open my doors and walk out onto the balcony.

A man whose face I shall not remember long after I've opened my eyes. CHAPTER 1

I didn’t understand it, couldn’t name it, but it was there, waiting. I opened my eyes, meeting the camp’s gaze. The men’s faces were a sea of expectation—some mocking, some curious, all waiting to see me falter or rise. I took a breath, slow and steady, letting Nylo’s calm anchor me. My hands moved, not with hesitation but with intent, reaching toward the fire. The flames flickered, hungry, and I felt the pull, the connection, like a thread drawn taut.

‘Open your eyes, Rose… danger is coming… wake up…. I pushed hard. My eyelids tore and pulled apart, orange yellow lights burst in, and I felt stung. My eyes shut. It’s cold, mum. ‘I’m with you, sweetie… open your eyes and fight….’ I tried again. This time, my eyes have adapted. A weary sound escaped from my lips as the view before me slowly cleared to the present. And then, I glared in surprise at the person standing before me. Goldie… Sparks? What’s she doing here? Where’s Ambrose?

Alive. I knelt slowly. My hands trembled as I pulled back the blanket. And what I saw, Was a baby. Small. Sleeping. With golden eyes. And white flame, curling along its fingertips. I backed away. “No…” The baby opened its eyes. And whispered, “Mommy.” I fell. Hands scraping the stone. Tears stung my face. “No,” I breathed again. Because those eyes? They weren’t Thorne’s. Not Kael’s.

But now, fueled by grief and an all-consuming fury, it roared to life. My vision swam. The world around me seemed to distort, to warp. I felt a searing heat course through my veins, my bones, my very soul. My eyes… they felt like they were on fire. Georgia, who had been watching the slaughter with a detached, almost bored expression, suddenly gasped. Her eyes widened, her smug composure shattering. "What… what is this?" she stammered, her voice laced with a sudden, uncharacteristic fear. "His eyes… they’re… it can’t be!"

But for the first time, I saw no fear in Alex’s eyes when he looked at her. Only rage. And a promise that she had gone too far. END OF CHAPTER 93

‘Follow me “ I whispered as I led them out of Ada’s house to freedom. We crept along quietly, Atticus was perched upon Johnraś shoulders, holding handfuls of Johnras hair like a rein. Looking back at my mother, I reached tentatively for the handle to open the front door. As she nodded, I turned the hand and slowly pushed the door open. The cold night air hit our faces, taking our first step to freedom we huddled close together and started to run for our lives.
