Chapter 105
The camp’s somber quiet was punctuated by the sound of sharpening blades and murmured prayers. Warriors exchanged terse glances as they prepared for the inevitable clash. Cassian stood at the edge of the strategy tent, his arms crossed, watching the pack assemble. His golden eyes darted to the tent flap as Aurora pushed through, her silver hair catching the torchlight.
“You shouldn’t be here,” Cassian said, his tone firm. “You need rest.”
Aurora ignored him, her expression unyielding as she approached the map sprawled across the table. The glow of the Celestial Pact flickered faintly in her eyes. “We can’t wait any longer,” she said. “He’s too close to the heart.”
Anica stepped into the tent, their golden eyes scanning the gathered leaders. “The Lycan King isn’t just advancing,” they began. “He’s drawing his forces to a single point—deep within the forbidden territory.”
Cassian’s jaw tightened. “You’re suggesting we send people in there?”
“I’m suggesting we go,” Anica countered. “If he reaches the heart of the Pact first, there won’t be a war—there’ll only be defeat.”
Aurora placed her hand on the table, her fingers tracing the rough outline of the forbidden territory. “I’m going,” she said, her voice steady despite the weight of her words.
Cassian stiffened. “Absolutely not.”
Her gaze met his, fierce and unyielding. “The Pact chose me, Cassian. It will guide me, just as it has before.”
“It’s not just about you,” Cassian snapped, his voice rising. “You’re carrying our child. Do you even understand the risk?”
Aurora’s expression softened, but her resolve didn’t falter. “I do. But this child isn’t just ours. It’s part of the Pact. If we lose it, we lose everything.”
The room fell silent, the weight of her words hanging heavy in the air. Finally, Cassian exhaled sharply, his shoulders sagging. “Then I’m coming with you.”
Aurora’s lips curved into a faint smile. “I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
