Blood And Silver:Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate

Chapter 165 AURORA The journal lay open before me , its old pages still faintly glowing with the residual magic that had broken Reeds enchantment .

My fingers trembled slightly as I turned another page .

Reading my mothers words felt almost intrusive , but I couldnt stop .

Her voice seemed to echo in my head as I traced the delicate symbols , their meaning unraveling effortlessly before my eyes .

Her warnings about the Nameless were vivid and terrifying , but there was a hope woven through them , a belief that she had left tools for me to fight back .

A soft knock at the door broke my focus .

Come in I called , my voice was steadier than I felt .

Evander stepped in , his face looking dull .

His usual charm was absent , replaced by the sharp intensity that had defined him since he started leading missions for me .

He looked like he hadnt slept in days , completely worn out .

I just got word from my team , he said , going straight to the point .

Weve narrowed the Namelesss lair to a region in the Chapter 165 2/7 mountains , but it will take more than just scouting to confirm .

My heart raced at the news but I forced myself to stay calm .

How dangerous are the wards ? Evander crossed his arms , leaning against the wall .

Well , my dear , its strong enough to kill anyone who gets too close without the right protection .

The Nameless isnt leaving anything to chance .

Then well need to act quickly , I said , closing the journal and rising to my feet .

We cant let him strengthen those defenses any further .

His expression darkened .

Youre not seriously thinking about going yourself .

I met his gaze .

Of course I am .

Who else would go ? This isnt just about strategy , Evander .

Its about Dane .

If theres even a chance I can weaken the Namelesss hold on him , then so be it … Dont , he cut in sharply , his voice low .

Dont make this about him .

Not entirely .

I flinched at the edge of his tone but refused to back down .

This is about all of us .

About the pack .
