Katrina’s POVThe temple trembled.With its eyes blazing into me, the enormous wolf deity growled.Power, the kind that made my skin crawl, was in the air.I could still hear Mira's remarks."We have to seal it again… with blood."Thomas, too?He simply stood grinning.As if he was aware that I was stuck.He seemed to be waiting for me to snap.I gripped my dagger tightly. My thoughts were racing.There must have been another route.In order to clean up Thomas's mess, I wouldn't sacrifice anyone.I wouldn't allow him to prevail.Then— The earth gave way beneath us.With a roar so powerful it split the air in two, the wolf deity raised its head.I stumbled back, my vision hazy.The voice then came to me.deep. old.Not the deity.Not Thomas.A worse thing."Enough."A shadow descended upon the space.It wasn't divinely inspired.It wasn't from the walls of the temple.It came from another source.Something larger.The enormous head of the wolf deity turned slightly as it froze, as if

Katrina's POVThe road ahead was dark and never-ending, with the trees enclosing us like silent guardians. My ribs were sore from the struggle, my body hurt, and my mind was clouded by all that had transpired. We had just managed to get away from the Shadow Cult. We lacked sufficient strength. Not quite yet. The smell of moist ground, night, and something more that made my skin crawl was borne by the breeze. I didn't believe the silence.Shaun strolled silently next to me, his jaw gritted. His rigid movements served as a reminder of the struggle we had just managed to survive. With her knife always close at hand, Mira was in the lead. The others trailed after, moving slowly, worn out but resolute. All we could do was keep going. To stop was to die. Zevran would have more time to locate us if we stopped.Here, the air felt different. heavier. False. Like a predator lurking in the shadows, I sensed something observing us and pressing on my senses. I knew Shaun felt the s

Katrina's POVIt was a different camp. Uncomfortable. False. Something was wrong, as the scouts patrolled, the warriors exercised, and the weapons were sharpened. People's movements, the way whispers spread, and the way eyes flashed too fast as I passed all gave me a sense of it. Something was going on. Something negative.Mira approached me with a thin line of her lips pressing on mine. "The food is gone."I scowled. "What?"She folded her arms. This morning, we conducted an inventory. Our supplies are missing. Many of them.My stomach turned over. "Would it have been an error?"She gave a headshake. "No. They were taken by someone.I let out a breath and looked around the camp. The soldiers were more tense than normal. It was more than just the cuisine. There was more. I sensed it.Shaun approached with a somber expression. "There's another issue."I looked him in the eye. "Now what?"After a moment of hesitation, he lowered his voice. "The battle plans were lea

Katrina’s POVMira stood frozen, her face pale, her breath unsteady. The blood on the ground hadn’t even dried, and yet the camp felt quieter than ever. All around us, the warriors watched and waited. They had no faith in her. Nor was I certain that I did.Beside me, Shaun was motionless, his hand clutching his sword's hilt. I could feel the anger leaving him even though he remained silent. In combat, Mira had served as my sister, friend, and second-in-command. Now, however, she was our only link to the enemy.I walked slowly in her direction. "Be honest with me."Mira winced. "Katrina, I—""Now," I said, sounding sharper than I meant to.Her mouth quivered. She looked around, at Shaun, at the warriors, at the dead body between us. Then her eyes met mine, full of something I couldn’t name. Fear? Guilt? Desperation?“I don’t know what’s happening to me,” she whispered.Shaun laughed. "That is insufficient."Mira’s hands curled into fists. “You think I did this?”I inhal

Katrina’s POVBefore us, the mountains loomed, quiet, and unending. I ascended higher, each step heavier than the previous, the chilly air burning my lungs. Steep and twisting through dense forests and sharp rocks, the trail was designed to keep people out. Perhaps that was the idea.Shaun strolled next to me, his eyes keen, his shoulders stiff. This was not a place he trusted. I didn't either.With her arms around her body and her breath coming in short gasps, Mira followed. Since our departure, she had not spoken much. Her thoughts were elsewhere. her relatives. With each stride she took, the burden of their destiny continued to pound down on her shoulders.Above us, ominous clouds rolled in, laden with the threat of a storm. A caution. Through the woods, the wind howled and whispered mysteries that I couldn't comprehend.I drew my coat closer to me. "How far is it?"Shaun looked over the cliffs in front of him. "Not too far. whether the tales are accurate.Mira let ou
