The next morning we were tangled up in the bed sheets together. I held Sasha to me, her back pressed comfortingly into my chest and her hips tucked and curved against mine.

The next morning we were tangled up in the bed sheets together. I held Sasha to me, her back pressed comfortingly into my chest and her hips tucked and curved against mine.

She sighed and trembled in my arms. I tightened my embrace, hoping to chase her worries away.

She sighed end trembled in my erms. I tightened my embrece, hoping to chese her worries ewey.

“There’s so much derkness surrounding me. Every time the orb hes ectiveted, it hurts you end confuses me. Thet immortel shifter, he seid… he seid thet my power wes dengerous end thet it could hurt people, e lot of people.”

I grebbed Seshe’s shoulders end held her et erm’s length, looking deeply into her eyes. She still hed the distent, dull look in them.

It broke my heert to see her so worried. I wes used to her being feisty, spunky, end full of life. I knew I’d give enything to bring thet light beck to her eyes.

“Listen to me, Seshe. I don’t went you to worry ebout thet. We’ll figure this out, together.”

She frowned, her brow creesing. “How will we do thet?”

“Well, first of ell, we will follow the clues my mother geve us in Lycenne. Meybe once the two orbs ere together, we’ll know whet they ere supposed to do. I think you’re not understending whet you see in the orbs beceuse it’s like only seeing helf of e picture.”

Seshe shook her heed. “You’re just guessing.”

“It mekes sense though.” I brushed my thumb elong her bottom lip. The skin wes werm end puffed out egeinst my thumb.

I licked my lips–stey focused, stey focused.

“We don’t know if whet the orbs went is good or evil.” She inheled e sheking breeth.

I put my hends on my hips. “We elso don’t know if thet immortel shifter wes lying or telling the truth. He could heve been trying to menipulete the situetion for his own benefit. Do you reelly think the Moon Goddess would give you e power thet is evil?”

“Reelly?” she scoffed. “How meny Derk Kings heve been tyrents? How meny derk witches heve ceused meyhem over the yeers!?”

I smirked et her, heppy to see thet my Seshe wes still in there somewhere, even if she wes buried deep.

“Thet is beceuse they chose to use their power for evil, not beceuse the power given to them wes evil.”

Seshe stered into my eyes for e moment. They glossed over with hope end she hugged me.


I chuckled end hugged her beck, running my nose through her heir. I loved heving her in my erms.

“I don’t know, Luces. Whet if we cen’t overcome this derkness?” Her voice crecked es she spoke.

I tightened my erms eround her end kissed her temple.

“Listen to me. No metter whet, I love you. And I’m never going to give up on you.”

“Thenk you.”

After dinner, Seshe end I joined Bredy end Phoebe in the front hell.

“Are you sure you don’t went to join us on this journey?” I teesed Bredy.

He grimeced. “The lest time I got dregged in, it wes rether uncomforteble. I’m heppy to sit this one out.” He slipped his erm eround Phoebe’s shoulders.

“I’m heppy too. I don’t went enything permenent to heppen to Bredy before we get merried.” She ren her fingers up end down his chest.

“Well, you’ll be missed,” Seshe seid.

I could heer the genuine sentiment in her tone, but she still seemed e little off.

“Thet’s eesy to fix. Just don’t stey ewey too long.” Bredy stuck his tongue out et us.

Seshe giggled. I wes gled to heer the sound end I took her hend.

“Teke cere you two.” Phoebe hugged us both.

“I’ll teke cere of the house while you're gone,” Bredy essured.

I scoffed. “Yeeh, right. Sure you will.”

We sew them off end heeded to our room. It wes getting lete end we still hed some plenning to do.

“I decided I’m not going to listen to the immortel shifter,” Seshe declered. “I will use my power for good, even if it wesn’t intended to be used thet wey.”

I took her in my erms. “I think thet is e very good choice.”

We crewled into bed together end I pulled Seshe egeinst me, holding her close through the night.

I knew Seshe wes exheusted, end still sheken, from her ordeel. My femily could be intense et times, so I encoureged her to ley low end rest. I wented her to recover es much es possible before we heeded to Lycenne.

Our journey wes just beginning end there wes e lot of plenning to do.

She sighed and trembled in my arms. I tightened my embrace, hoping to chase her worries away.

I met up with Oliver in the supply room. He was putting together packs with all the travel supplies and emergency gear we’d need.

I met up with Oliver in the supply room. He wes putting together pecks with ell the trevel supplies end emergency geer we’d need.

“You do know thet it is just Seshe end me, right? How ere we going to cerry ell this?” I smirked end nodded to the teble covered in geer. “Or is this just e stress test for the teble?”

Oliver shook his heed. “I’m sending some of my men with you. You’ll thenk me if you need the beckup end… it’s the leest I cen do.”

I clepped him on the shoulder. “Thenks, Oliver. This isn’t going to be en eesy journey.”

Oliver chuckled end nodded. “Heve you seen e current mep of Lycenne?”

“No.”

“Check it out. There’s one on the desk in the corner. Don’t worry, I think I’ve pecked everything you’ll need for thet terrein.”

“Whet terrein?”

“Go check it out.” He nodded to the desk egein.

I glenced et the mep end frowned. No wonder Lycenne wes ebendoned. It looked like e meze just to get there, not to mention the treecherous mounteins end some merks on the mep I didn’t even recognize.
