Chapter 107

Julian’s POV

This was breaking her. It didn’t take much to see the effect of it all. It was all over her. Julian wished there was something he could do to take her out of this. He wished he could assure her that it would all be fine, but there was no telling if it would be fine.

What was coming was worse than anything they had faced so far, and they were weaker than ever.

Fiona stayed silent all the while Drew drove them home, and there was a lot of thought raging through her head. He knew because he had the same.

They arrived back home, and Fiona helped herself down, not waiting for the door to be open for her. She also headed inside, not waiting for him.

He didn’t stop her or call after her; this wasn’t the time. They needed to be in the comfort of their homes and perhaps talk. If she didn’t want to talk, then he would wait until she wanted to.

He delivered duties and tasks to the guards on standby around the mansion. He finished and followed her into the bedroom, and he rounded her, pacing around uncontrollably.

He stood and watched for a while before taking a step towards her.

“Don’t come any closer, please.” She said. She already knew what he was about to do.

He halted his movement and nodded.

She paced around, mumbling things he couldn’t understand at first, but then he did. “Eight purest and forty-nine strong.”

This was the pattern by which Doom slaughtered the men he needed to break the barrier. These men died, and they weighed on Fiona’s heart.

She ran her hand through her hair and tugged at it. “Eight purest, forty-nine strong, Lily and Jace.”

“Eight purest, forty-nine strong, Lily and Jace.” She repeated on and on.

She was breaking down, and it was painful to watch her go through it alone. He knew what she said, but he couldn’t stand back and watch this. If she lost it, that would break him too, and he would never recover.

“Fiona.”

“Give me a moment; I am almost done!” She yelled at him.

He couldn’t give her a moment, so he stepped towards her and placed his hands on her shoulder, stopping her in her tracks.

She leaned in and took his lips between hers for a soft kiss. It was unexpected, but it affected him, making him long for

He pulled away and shook his head. “No, this isn’t what you want now, Fiona.”
