Chapter 57 DANE I placed the pearl on top of the wound .

Bright light flashed again , and there was the scent of smoke and burning .

I blinked , and when I could see again , the corruption was no longer livid and dark , but gray and faded .

Aurora ? She still didnt wake .

I lifted her .

We have to get her to Blue Ridge .

Now .

I didnt let Aurora go until it I had to lay her in a cot in the infirmary and step back so the healers could look at her .

I sent Archer off to find Evelyn .

I didnt bother to try and send Trajan away .

I knew he wouldnt go , and now wasnt the time for a power struggle .

Its not as bad as the other two , Celia said .

She was one of the wolves Id sent with Piper to guard Aurora at her former home .

She wore a long gray sweater that matched the soft color of her shoulder length , wavy gray hair .

Chapter 57 Shes wearing some kind of amulet .

It stopped the spread , I said .

2/6 These shadows were picking off my family one by one .

Theyd tried to get to me .

If not for Aurora , I would be in this bed .

Shed saved me .

Esther Reed had lied .

Aurora had been telling me the truth , shed always been loyal to me .

Now she was here , just as unconscious as Piper and my grandfather .

The unfairness of it , plus my own disgust at myself , was enough to make me want to hit my knees and roar at the universe .

Do you think shell wake up ? I asked Celia .

The grandmotherly woman pressed her lips together and breathed out in a worried sigh .
