Chapter 89 : I Could be At Peace

*Mila*

When Soren told me that he loved me, I nearly broke down but I kept myself composed. My hands trembled slightly and I tucked them behind my back.

I wanted to tell him that I loved him too and that I was pregnant with his child. More than anything, I wanted to run right into his arms again. The woman in the picture was still stuck in my heart like a thorn but it didn’t matter. I didn’t care about Soren’s past, only his future.

And that future, I wanted it to be with me and our child.

I rubbed my hands on my thighs and paced back and forth, trying to convey nervousness instead of hope and happiness.

I knew Dylan was watching me. Dylan was what Soren had called him but I wasn’t sure if that was his name and I wasn’t about to ask him. It would let him know that I was in contact with someone else.

Any change in myself would alert Dylan that Soren was on his way and I couldn’t risk that. Soren still had surprise on his side.

“You seem anxious,” Dylan said.

He smirked and pulled a small knife out. His eyes lit up viciously.

“I’m locked in an underground tomb,” I said.

“Ahh, you’re anxious to get out of here. Okay, then there’s no need to beat around the bush. You want to get back to your sugar daddy with your precious child, right?”

I didn’t respond, I just paced some more. In my mind, I wished Soren would hurry, but I didn’t reach out to him in the mind link. If he confesses his love to me again, I wouldn’t be able to hide my joy from Dylan.

“So, all you have to do is tell me where the last part of the artifact is. It’s that simple. Tell me where the artifact is and that’s the last favor I’ll ask before setting you free.” Dylan gave me a slick smile.

I imagined he thought it was a gentle, tender smile but it was terrifying.

How was I supposed to respond to that? If I told him I didn’t have it then he might think I was useless. If I told him I didn’t know where it was or how to use it… well, Soren told me to be careful.

I had to think my way through this.

“You’ve got the Light of Guidance and the Sheath of Protection. Where is the Dagger of Mercy?” he pressed.

I blinked at him and stopped pacing. He already knew more about the artifact than Chandler did. I’d always thought the final part of the artifact was a dagger because of the sheath but I couldn’t be sure. Besides, I didn’t know each of the parts had its own name.

Dylan knew the artifact well. He knew it better than I did, that was for sure.

I bit my lower lip. Chandler and Dylan couldn’t hurt me. They’d need me to use the artifact once they had all the pieces. I had a little wiggle room to push back and ask questions.

Maybe I could learn a little something in the process.

“If you know all about the artifact, why didn’t you tell Chandler the truth?” I asked, crossing my arms.

Dylan arched an eyebrow. “The truth about what?”

“The Blade of Souls. I know it isn’t as powerful as everyone thinks.”

“I doubt you truly understand the power it has,” he countered.

“Perhaps. But we both know that it can’t raise the dead like Chandler wants. His Luna will never come back to life.” I motioned to the crystal coffin.

“And you’re sure of that?”
