AURORA I sat at the long dining table, poking at the soup in my bowl with a spoon. My appetite had all but disappeared since… well, everything. My body was weak, thinner than I’d ever seen it, and my hands trembled no matter how much rest I tried to get. I wasn’t sure if it was the torture or my emotions that have been all over the place.It was torture trying to make everyone think that I am okay when I am not. But I did not even think they were going to believe me because they could see the way that I was trembling, like I was about to faint. Across the table, Anton sat down with his face as stern as ever. Evelyn, seated next to him, looked tense too. Damian was at the far end of the table. He was silent as his sharp green eyes scanning the room. It felt awkward. Seeing us seated like this when only a few months ago, Damian and Evelyn were together. It was almost humorous. “So,” Damian started, breaking the heavy silence. “This is cozy.”Anton snorted. “Cozy isn’t the word I’d us

AURORA It had been weeks since everything had happened and I have been looking closely, trying to see if there was something that was going to point me to what Sera had told me. I had tried to get Anton’s trust so he would let me handle the injections and so far, he had not allowed me. He said I needed to learn about it more. So I forgot about him allowing me to do it and then I decided that I needed to continue to run. I haven’t seen Sera since, thank Goodness so I could jog whenever I wanted without anyone stopping me. Today Damian had told me that he was going to come and I have been excited. When he came, I heard a knock by the door. I happily skipped to go and see him but then I realized that something was off. He was hunched over, blood seeping through his shirt, staining the edges of his jacket.“Damian.” I gasped, rushing forward.“I’m fine,” he grunted, his jaw tightening. He was obviously in pain. Had he gotten hurt trying to come and meet me? I instantly felt guilty.

AURORATime stretched endlessly in the dim basement, the only sound being the faint crackling of the artefact in front of Ethan. The metallic smell of wolfsbane hung in the air, sharp and suffocating. My body ached all over, my wrists raw from the cuffs and my skin burning every time I brushed against the cage.Anton had left me after multiple tries to awaken the artefact but it would not work. It was as though it was in my favour. I was so glad as he left, giving me more chances to come up with the ways that I wanted to protect myself.I tried to summon my magic, my witch powers that had flickered to life before, but nothing happened. Every time I reached deep inside, I felt nothing. Just an empty void where power should be.“Come on,” I whispered to myself, gritting my teeth. “You’re a witch. You can do this. You have to.”But it was no use. The fear, the pain, the overwhelming anger all muddled my focus. I slammed my fists against the bars, ignoring the sting as they burned me.“Ge

AURORA My head throbbed as I stirred awake. The room was cold, and the metal cuffs around my wrists bit into my skin. I groaned, trying to move, but the silver burned. I wondered if he had placed them on my hands while I was sleeping so I wouldn’t move. My limbs felt so heavy, and my throat was so dry it hurt to even swallow.The walls were damp and cracked. I shivered, pulling my knees closer to my chest as the realization sank in. I wasn’t going anywhere and this time no one knew that was going to come and help me. Lord knew where Damon was, and Ethan and Evelyn might be dead. I was trapped in here and I did not know where I would go.The door creaked open, disrupting my thoughts, and Ethan strode in, his face smug and filled with triumph. I glared at him, refusing to show how much he had worn me down and affected me. I felt hollow in my body. He had taken everything away from me. Every last thing. “Comfortable?” he asked, a cruel smile spreading across his face.I ignored him. He

DAMIANI had tried to look for Aurora for so many days and when I officially realized that she had been missing, my entire life felt like it had been turned upside down. I had tried to look for her everywhere and whenever I could, but it was like she had just disappeared into thin air. The sleepless nights were catching up to me, but stopping wasn’t an option. Aurora was out there somewhere, suffering because I hadn’t protected her. I couldn’t eat. Couldn’t think. Couldn’t breathe properly without wondering if she was okay. I’d been leading search parties daily, scouring the woods with my best trackers, but every lead we followed led to nothing. We wanted to comb through everywhere, to wait for spies to tell me if they had seen Aurora in the house, but they had not reported anything to me yet. I had sent out one of my spies to help Aurora in case she was there before he came to tell me because I knew that was going to be the most important. I was in the middle of reviewing our next
