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

Chapter 219 DANE The grove will burn , he says in a whispered tone .

And with it , the bloodline of Kael .

The room is quiet .

You can hear the drop of a leaf .

Callens body lays limp , his eyes no longer radiating that faint glow .

Its as though , for a second , the storm is over , we might be able to catch a breath now .

Then Aurora leans in close and softly says , Callen , are you alright ? His lips moved and repeated the words faint and chilling .

The grove will burn , and with that , the bloodline of Kael .

The words dribble through the room , settling like claws upon our skin .

Aurora tenses , her hand shaking as she jerks back .

I step forward .

A natural instinct to place myself between Callen and Aurora , pushes me forward .

Aurora I said , my voice low .

Step back.

She nods , eyes wide but intent .

Chapter 219 Lirien appeared out of darkness ; heavy and forbidding .

2/6 The prophecy has started , he says , voice impenetrable .

The Forgotten starts their move .

The pack congregated in the hall , all voices hushed by fear .

Aurora weaves her way among them , words quiet and soothing .

Yet, even she cannot disguise the hint of concern that glimmers .

within her eyes .

I stood by her side , my hand resting on the hilt of my blade .

Ive seen her carry this pack through impossible odds , but something about this feels different .

When the room clears , and the others retreat to prepare , Aurora pulls me aside .

I need to go to the grove , she says , her voice steady but laced with urgency .

I frown .

Alone ? Thats not happening .

She shakes her head .

I dont think its a trap , Dane .
