CHAPTER FIFTY-FIVE

The Countdown 2

"Morgana," Alarick repeated, his voice gentle but firm. "Please, tell me what has happened. I want to help you, but I need to know what's wrong first. Why are you crying?"

“Alarick, to…tomorrow begins the countdown.”

Alarick gasped at that information, his end time was nearer than he thought.

He stumbled back and collapsed onto his bed, his chest heaving as his heart raced with fear. He couldn't believe what Morgana had just told him. The countdown to his death was starting the next day. It meant that he would die in a few months or even weeks.

The weight of this realization hit him hard. He had built his kingdom with blood, sweat, and tears, and he didn't want to leave it behind. He had people that he loved dearly, and he didn't want to leave them either.

As he lay there, his mind raced with thoughts of what would happen to his kingdom and his family after he was gone. He had so many plans and dreams, and they would all be shattered if he died.
