Chapter 197 1/6 AURORA Holden stood before me in the gloom of the packs war room , his features shaded but those razor eyes with unchanging determination .
An unruly presence , the unsettling marriage of calm and volatility that didnt allow complete trust .
But the options were few and desperation is known to blur judgment .
I crossed my arms over my chest , while a storm started inside me ; my eyes were unyielding .
What is it that you want , Holden ? What is this really about ? He lifted an eyebrow ; the trace of a smile danced upon his lips .
Straight to the point I like that in you , Aurora .
Dont flatter me , I snapped .
Youre not here out of the goodness of your heart .
So either tell me the truth or leave .
Holden chuckled .
There was no humor in the sound .
He leaned closer , his carriage loose but his eyes ablaze .
Very well .
The truth , then .
I tensed , my eyes focused on him .
He leaned against the edge of the table , his fingers tracing the wood grain absent mindedly , as if he collected his thoughts .
Chapter 197 2/6 I was once a priest of the Moon Goddess , he said in a low tone , steady .
I served her , faithful to every utterance , devoted my life to her teachings , and she blessed my family and me with her light .
I scowled , taken aback by his words .
You ? A priest ? He nodded , something pain ? Regret ? -flashing across his face .
Yes .
My faith was everything in my life .
But faith does not save you from cruelty .
Holdens eyes fell to the floor , and for the first time , his confident figure finally cracked .
Taken , my family was taken from me my wife , my daughter .
Slaughtered by raiders , while i was off praying in the temple My breath caught in my throat at the raw emotion in his tone .
Against my will , a sign of pity turned within me .
Holden … He shook his head and cut me off .
