Torn Between The Alpha Twins Chapter Forty - Three – Danger Alert
Ella's POVI tossed and turned all night, haunted by visions of the pendant's ominous red glow. Sleep eluded me as I worried about the curse growing stronger, consuming Jayden and I in its malevolent grasp. When the first rays of dawn peeked through my window, I jolted upright in bed. My head pounded from another restless night, but a more pressing fear gripped my heart - the stone. I looked down, my breath catching in my throat as I saw the pendant around my neck pulsating with that same vibrant red hue. "No, no, no!" I gasped, clutching the stone in dismay. "This couldn't be happening. The curse was supposed to be weakening, not gaining strength!"I yelled.Panicked, I rushed out of my room to find Jayden.

Ella's POVI awoke slowly, clinging to the fading images of my vivid dream. I had seen Aiden, spoken to him, our surroundings shrouded in mist.His voice, his visage had been so clear, so real. I could still feel the ghostly brush of his fingers against my cheek. Had it been more than just a dream? Some mystical connection made possible by the child now growing within me?

"Can you hear me, my love?"For agonising moments, only silence answered. Then, faint as a whisper, his beloved voice echoed back."Ella?" Disbelief and joy coloured his words. "How is this possible?"My heart swelled, tears of relief springing to my eyes. "My child, Jayden's child has awakened gifts within me," I explained gently. "I can speak to you through our minds now."I sensed his smile, felt his spirit wrap around mine in a tender embrace. "You never cease to amaze me," he murmured. "Even separated, you find a way back to me
