The aftermath of Seraphina’s attack hung over them like a thick fog. The silence in the cabin was deafening as Sasha stared at the silver dagger resting on the table. Its blade shimmered faintly, almost as if it pulsed with life, yet no one dared touch it.Ethan paced back and forth, his hands clenching and unclenching at his sides. Marcus stood at the door, his stance alert, his eyes scanning the dark forest beyond. Alex leaned against the wall, his face pale, his injuries from earlier still taking their toll.“We need answers,” Ethan growled, his voice low and dangerous. “Seraphina isn’t going to stop. And now she’s made it clear Sasha is the center of this—” He turned to look at her, his piercing gaze softening for just a moment. “We can’t keep stumbling in the dark.”Sasha swallowed hard, her chest tight with a mixture of fear and guilt. She had drawn Seraphina’s attention, had brought danger crashing down on them again. But beneath that fear, something stronger stirred—a spark of

The growl reverberated through the air, low and menacing, sending chills racing down Sasha’s spine. Ethan was in front of her in an instant, his body tense and ready, his eyes gleaming with an almost feral light. Marcus moved to the side, positioning himself to flank whatever was lurking in the shadows.The whispers that had plagued them since entering the Hollow had grown silent, replaced by an oppressive stillness. Even the air seemed heavier, crackling with an unseen energy.“What is it?” Sasha whispered, her fingers tightening around the dagger. The weapon felt alive in her grip, pulsing faintly as if in warning.“I don’t know,” Ethan murmured, his voice a low growl. “But it’s not friendly.”A shadow moved at the edge of the clearing, too fast to track. Sasha’s breath hitched as her eyes darted to follow it. Whatever it was, it was big—larger than any wolf she’d ever seen—and it moved with a predatory grace that set her nerves on edge.Another growl sounded, this time from the opp

The morning light broke over the horizon, casting long shadows across the forest as Ethan, Sasha, and Kael stood at the edge of the clearing. The air was heavy with tension, each of them lost in their own thoughts. Sasha hadn’t slept, her mind racing with questions about Kael’s motives. Ethan’s jaw was clenched, his body taut with the weight of his decision to trust the enigmatic stranger.Kael, however, seemed entirely at ease. He leaned against a tree, his glowing eyes scanning the forest as if he could see things they couldn’t. “The nexus is two days’ walk from here,” he said, breaking the silence. “But the forest won’t make it easy. The Hollow protects its secrets.”“What does that mean?” Sasha asked, her voice sharp.Kael’s smirk returned, irritatingly confident. “It means the forest is alive, sweetheart. It senses intruders, especially ones carrying the Hollow’s mark. We’ll be tested before we reach the nexus. You’d better hope you’re strong enough to survive.”Sasha bristled at

The forest stretched out before them like an endless labyrinth of shadows and whispers. Sasha couldn’t shake the unease clinging to her, even as Kael’s hand rested protectively on the small of her back. They had emerged from the cavern victorious, but the weight of the ominous warning still hung in the air.Ethan walked ahead, his silence louder than any words he could have spoken. His jaw was tight, his shoulders tense, and Sasha knew he was wrestling with the same doubts that plagued her.Kael stopped abruptly, his golden eyes scanning the treeline. “We’re not alone,” he muttered, his voice low and sharp.Ethan whipped around, his hand instinctively reaching for the weapon strapped to his belt. “What is it?”Sasha’s heart leapt into her throat, and she pressed closer to Kael. The silence of the forest was almost suffocating, broken only by the faint rustle of leaves in the wind.“Stay close to me,” Kael said, his tone leaving no room for argument.They moved cautiously, their senses
