Chapter 110: Enough was Enough

Hanna

Enough was enough.

Tasia was tiring; I knew that much.

I was watching how she used the powers that we shared, trying to make sense of what exactly she was doing. She was moving in and out of consciousness, dipping into the dream

realm, the spirit realm, to harness the powers she had there to bring them into our reality, creating massive, earth-trembling gusts of wind that knocked me down several times.

She was not as powerful as she thought. It was likely, as I watched her begin to struggle, that she was in pain. And not just physically, but emotionally. Every time she took hold of her powers, she shed tears; her face twisted in agony. She had used these powers to kill her family. Her parents, her brothers and sisters. Her pack, families and children.

All out of greed. All for power. Power that was slipping through her fingers.

I was what she wanted this whole time. Her eagerness to destroy the moonstones and kill the last of the White Queens was Carl’s desire, something he had planted within her and watered over years and years of submitting to her culture, of being the only one who possesses powers she didn’t under stand and yearning to be close to someone who did.

But I’d had someone who understood me. My mother.

And her proclivity to nurture me, to build me in her own im áge, had been the reason I closed myself off and detested my powers in the first place.

I was not like Tasia.

And she hated me for it.

So, I took blow after blow, putting myself in her path so Rosalie could save Rowan’s life. Rosalie’s powers should have worked, but the blue flames rising from the fire built on a base of eudialyte stones, sacred stones that blocked the pow ers of our kind, had heated the silver blade she used to stab Rowan through the chest, poisoning him and rendering Ros alie’s powers to heal him useless.

His mother had nearly drained herself trying to save his life.

I had nothing but faint hope that she had been success ful. I could feel him hanging on. He was fighting.

And that shred of hope was all that kept me upright now as Tasia continued her attack.

Was it the fire itself that was making her weak? Was it the stones she lined the tunnel with, making it impossible to mind -link, and likely shift?

Why did the stones affect her?

And not me?

I turned from my Rowan, wondering if I’d ever see him again.

And then, I closed my eyes, and pictured the unfamiliar temple from my dreams.

It was quiet in this realm. The waves lapped the shore in a rhythmic fashion like usual. I was standing just off the shore, waiting, wondering if I’d see Rowan appear like he had the
