Chapter 0603

Nina

Now that my mother had left the room, it was just me and the witch, Elara. She gazed at me with those deep emerald eyes, her expression serious.

I just stared at her, my eyes wide. She had just told me that I was seemingly curse-free and that my baby was healthy, but now it seemed as though she was about to drop a new bomb.

"What is it?" I found myself asking, my voice hardly more than a whisper.

Elara sighed. "Nina, there is something you need to know," she said. "I wanted to tell you privately because I don't want to scare your mother."

I quirked an eyebrow. "What is it?"

"A dark entity," she said. "Something is attached to you. And it doesn't want to let go."

As soon as she spoke, I felt my heart beginning to race. I knew exactly what-or perhaps who-she was referring to. "The shadow entity," I whispered, covering my mouth with my hand.

Elara shot me a concerned look before she continued. "Rest assured that it is not a demon," she said gently. "But rather the spirit of someone who passed; someone whose spirit was darkened at the time of their death."

My concern turned to confusion. Not a demon, but rather the spirit of someone who had passed...

"But it makes no sense," I said. "I thought I was having hallucinations. I thought I was going mad."

Elara's gaze remained steady as she shook her head. "It could be someone from your past, someone who held deep resentment or hatred towards you," she explained, as though sensing my baffled expression. "Perhaps even someone connected to your family. Have you experienced any deaths in the family recently?"
