Chapter 405:

“I can’t go back there,” Emeriel whispered. “I can’t see him again. I can’t… I can’t do it.” A shaky breath. “I don’t want to.”

Aekeira wanted to see her face, but Emeriel remained turned away, her back rigid.

“The Emeriel I know is not a coward,” Aekeira said. “The Emeriel I know faces her challenges, no matter how impossible they seem, instead of running from them. What happened to that Em?”
