Chapter 78: You Don’t Have Powers Anymore,

Do You?

I saw him walking through the cloak of fog, his body il luminated by the porch light as he neared the cabin. He saw me in the window and stopped short of knocking on the door, his blue eyes shadowed by dark circles.

I wasn’t afraid of death. I wasn’t afraid of the punish ment coming my way. So, when Alpha Ethan arrived on my doorstep, I was ready. I had already surrendered.

He didn’t come inside as I opened the door, slowly, try ing not to wake Kacidra, who was asleep on the couch. He tilted his head toward the gravel road, motioning for me to follow. 

It was the dead of night. The fog hung low and twisted between the sparse trees. The big house, Rowan’s home, was darkened, not a single light on inside.

Ethan didn’t say a word to me as we walked. He kept his hands tucked into the pockets of his jacket, his face for ward. I walked calmly beside him with no questions on the tip of my tongue. I knew where we were going, and who he

was bringing me to see. I knew why he had chosen to do so under the cover of darkness.

Rowan was waiting at the gate to the driveway. He gave me a reassuring smile. No words were exchanged, but his eyes were soft, their meaning clear.

This would just be a talk. Nothing more.

But I hadn’t spoken a word to Rosalie since the moment I forced her out of my dream. That had been a week ago.

“Is the house empty?” Ethan’s voice rang out through the stillness as he reached the stairs leading up to the front porch.

“Georgia and Talon are staying with Gemma and Ernest, and Vicky-”

Rowan’s voice faded into a murmur as they disap peared into the dark recesses of the house. I started at the front door, the threshold, and a cool shiver ran up the cen ter of my spine.

What could I possibly say to her?

The house was quiet, still. When I entered, I took off my boots and my coat, hanging it by the front door. I let my fingers linger on the fabric for a moment, closing my eyes,

“Are you alright?” It was Rowan’s voice in my ear.

I turned to him, finding him closer than I expected.

“It’s going to be fine,” he whispered, laying a soft kiss on my temple before he turned me towards the stairs.”
