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

Chapter 210 AURORA A monster steps out from behind the trees , green fire ablaze in his eyes .

Your choice , it said , Comes at a greater cost than you know .

It then vanished , the trees heartbeat is synchronized with my own and the light which spills out of it pours across the clearing , casting long , wavy shadows against the twisting roots that moved like snake around its base .

The pulse of its life is weirdly soothing , and yet the air is stretched tight over the threat of a storm .

I take one step closer and the pendant around my chest stirs weakly .

The nearer I am , the heavier my limbs ; its as if the grove weighed me down .

Everything here was so scary , my heart kept beating fast .

Behind me , Dane shifts noiselessly .

The sound is soothing , reassuring .

His hand brushes closely enough past mine the slightest flash of comfort .

Then what I saw was a sight to behold .

Chapter 210 Beautiful .

2/7 The light of the heart is hypnotic , an ethereal glow seeming to carry with it the weight of eternity .

Yet while looking at it , I feel something deeper , a pull , a connection .

Its energy calls to me , not just offering answers but something more .

Power .

The pendant on my chest hums gently , its cracked surface reflecting the glow of the heart .

For one instant , the two lights have combined , and a vision sweeps over me .

I see the grove restored : its roots vital , its silver trees humming with life as their glowing fruit is untainted by corruption .

The pack is thriving , with laughter and unity , their voices carrying across the forest .

Then the vision darkens .

I see myself , or what remains of me , tied with the roots of the tree .

My essence is absorbed , feeding the groves renewal .

Im gone , a shadow in its legacy , my name whispered only in passing .

The vision fades , leaving me trembling .
