Chapter 46 Brigit ran through the maze using the path she had already tried before. She knew she couldn’ttrust anyone very well, and her own path was the safest.

The buildings of the Forgotten City started collapsing one by one way too fast, way too close …

To the point of her thinking that she wouldn't make it.

She finally reached the hardest part of the maze with the secret tiles and tried to hop from one to another, looking for the empty ones or the northernstars.

She was already so close to the wall that she could almost taste the safety.

However, at the last moment, a small hut not far from her exploded, pieces of stone flying in all directions, one of theheavy ones landing on one of the crescent tiles right next to her foot.

She had just a second to react before the poisoned arrows flew at her, and she ducked down, sliding over several tiles.

She knew it was bad before she stopped, and the ground started falling through under her as she activated oneof the silver pits.

The flower one.

The one that had sharp spikes at the bottom.

Desperate, Brigit grasped the edge of the wall, but one of her hands slipped.

This was the end.

She knew it had to be, and tears started stinging her eyes.

Everything was in vain…

Her fingers started giving in when a strong hand caught her wrist, not letting her fall to herdeath.

Brigit's first thought was that the white bears got her, and a chill went down her spine becauseshe had failed.

Failed, failed, failed.

Big time.

That was when the tingles erupted through her, and she wished it was one of the white bears.

"I've got you!" Aspen growled as he pulled her up to the surface.

He was so big, so warm, and he smelled like the northern mountains she loved so much.

"I've got you," he repeated as he pressed her against his body.

She didn't know if he was saying that to her or to himself, and she didn’t care.

Brigit heard explosions here and there, but they were dying down now.

Luckily, they were on safe turf now, and Aspen still held her in his arms.

His scent enveloped her; his well-trained hands were keeping her in place.

She should have pushed him away, freed himself from her, run away…but she did not want to.

She had dreamt of this her whole life.

This was what she wanted, what she desired the most.

This! She wanted to have a man who would love her unconditionally, who would belong to her and her alone.

She did not want to share; she did not want to fight for him, she did not want to beg forhis attention, she did not want to have to ask him for anything.

Brigit dreamt of a true mate, a fated one, who was born to make her happy.

For whom she would be enough.

And here he was, eager to claim her, eager to give her everything she ever wanted.

It was heartbreaking to know she couldn’t accept him.

"You are okay," he whispered into her hair, and she felt him placing a soft kiss on the top of her head.

Brigit leaned into his warm chest with her eyes closed.

Just for a moment.

Just this once…

She didn't know how long they stayed this way, but she did not want to move.

She knew that the moment she did, it would be over.
