Chapter 151 DANE Holden was right about his bond with Aurora .

As soon as we got closer , he knew more details about where she was .

It was remote , high in the mountains , which were already covered with snow .

But less than 48 hours after the thing from the stone the guardian , or the prisoner had taken her , we stood on the road below a ruin of a castle .

It was night when we reached it , and it loomed black against the snowy mountainside , its towers a shadow of emptiness between the stars .

Shes here ? I asked .

Holden nodded .

He seemed more and more frazzled the closer we got to her .

Holden was an arrogant ass , but now , despite the cold , I could smell the sour stink of his nervous sweat .

She knows were coming , he said .

His voice sounded hollow .

Shes … so different .

Shes waiting for us .

As if his words had summoned her , the wind blew a drift of snow up .

When it settled , she was there at the castles fallen gates .

She wore all black , which made her skin look so pale and perfect Chapter 151 as porcelain .

Even though the moon was barely more than a sliver , it turned her hair silver in its light .

It fell over her shoulders , and her lilac eyes gleamed , 2/6 Holden , welcome .

Her voice echoed melodically in the empty courtyard .

I knew you would come .

Slowly , she turned her eyes to me .

Something flashed across her face something raw and broken .

Dane , she whispered .

In that whisper , I heard her .

I knew she wasnt gone .

I might be able to win her back , even now .

She hesitated , as if battling within herself .

Then she gave me an uncertain smile .

Wont both of you come in ? I could reach her .

I knew I could reach her .

Fuck Holden and his bond , she was mine .

Aurora turned away and walked into the castle .
