Chapter 119 AURORA Luna heir ,e quickly ! Trajan boomed from the door of my suite of rooms .


    Theyve found Evander ! I gasped and jumped to my feet .


    Id barely seen Dane for days .


    I wasnt sure why he had started to ignore me , but I had .


    to pretend to be grateful .


    It meant I couldnt spy on him for Holden .


    Instead , Id kept to my own rooms , trying to force myself to understand more of the journal while Trajan kept me updated on the search .


    It was so hard to concentrate , Id barely learned anything new .


    I ran from my room and met Trajan in the hall .


    Is he safe ? Are the children with him ? Trajans face was grave .


    Hes in the infirmary .


    Hes … alive .


    But no , the twins werent with him .


    I gripped the pearl pendant , my grief and disappointment warring with relief for Evander .


    Id found the ne on my desk and put it back on after the ceremony .


    I suppose it always had been meant for me , just like I thought .


    Now , there wasnt as muchfort in that as I had thought Chapter 119 there would be .


    I ran past Trajan, and he followed me to the infirmary .


    There were a few wolves there I assumed the ones who had found him , Celia , the healer , was also there .


    As was Piper , still unconscious in her own bed .


    2/5 1 licked my lips , remembering what had happened thest time I was in this ce .


    I wouldnt go near Piper , but I had to see Evander .


    I ran over to his bed , and the wolves there stepped aside .


    Luna heir , its … Celia started .


    I gasped when I saw Evander .


    Once , I had been poisoned with silver and beaten to within an inch of my life .


    They did it to trick Dane into thinking I was a victim , so he would be distracted by taking care of me and they could sneak past him onto Montaguend .


    The beating the Reeds had given me was nothingpared to what theyd done to Evander .


    It looked like theyd shredded every inch of his skin .


    Blood was everywhere .


    They only reason I believed it was him at all was because he moaned and blinked open lc eyes just like mine .


    I grasped his hand .


    Evander , what have they done ? Aurora .


    He gripped my hand .


    Tears gathered at the corners of Chapter 119 his eyes .


    I was so close .


    Im sorry .


    I failed … No ! I said fiercely .


    Youve done nothing wrong .


    3/5 The twins , he whispered .


    Blood gathered on the corners of his .


    lips .


    Something in me shifted and shimmered a sense Id never had before .


    But now it was like I could feel the life in his body , feel his injuries , and feel him slipping away .


    He was dying .


    That was the gift the moon goddess had given me .


    I could sense him fading .


    Evander , you have to hold on .


    I ced my other hand on top of his , so I was gripping it in both of mine .


    Tears burned behind my eyes .


    Please , you cant leave me .


    I need you .


    The twins need you .


    The twins , he said again .


    Theyre … he coughed , and droplets of blood flecked his lips .


    The Reeds have them .


    They lied .


    They want … He coughed again .


    The new power I sensed in my body told me he was almost gone .


    Dont talk .


    Please .


    I nced at Celia , but she shook her head at me .


    Hes lost too much blood .


    His wounds are too deep .


    No ! I closed my eyes .


    This gift from the goddess had to do 4/5 Chapter 119 more than tell me if someone was dying .


    Id tried to make light like Evelyn and failed .


    I had tried to shift , but still had no wolf .


    Id wondered if the goddess had tricked me and given me nothing at all .


    But now , here , by my grievously injured cousin , it was like my eyes opened .


    Cam told me I was a queen , but she had also used the word healer .


    Aurora , what the hell are you doing in here ? a deep voice snapped .


    Dane ! Hed be angry I was close to Piper after what happened with his grandfather .


    But I wasnt going to leave my cousin .


    I exhaled , feeling the cool sensation of my gift moving through me .


    Maybe , if I pushed it into Evander … Get her out of here , I heard Dane say .


    Hands closed over my arms .


    No ! Evander ! I pushed harder , imagined the cooling water flowing from me into him .


    Imaging it taking his pain , closing his wounds , bing new blood to heal his injuries .


    Celia gasped .


    So did Evander .


    I opened my eyes .


    Evander was glowing as if he were lit by swirling moonlight .


    He gasped , and this time he didnt cough .


    Was it working ? Was I actually healing him ? Chapter 119 Dane stood nearby ; his eyes wide .


    5/5 At the sight of him , something painful surged through me .


    My power leaped and skittered out of my control .


    The light around Evander grew and shed bright .


    He cried out .


    And then my power … jumped .


    It flew from Evander in a line like lightning … It sizzled to the other side of the room and hit Danes unconscious sister Piper .
