Chapter 297
Elyra crouched by the fire, her eyes scanning the flickering flames as she turned the pendant over in her hands. Dain had gone to gather supplies, leaving her alone for the first time in days. The forest was unusually quiet, the absence of its usual rustle and hum unsettling.
A twig snapped behind her. Elyra spun, her pulse spiking as Jason stepped into the clearing. His red eyes glowed faintly in the dim light, casting eerie shadows across his twisted features.
“Jason,” Elyra said, rising to her feet, her voice steady despite her racing heart.
He held up his hands as if in peace, though his stance radiated tension. “I don’t want to fight you,” he said, his tone softer than she’d expected. “I came to talk.”
Elyra didn’t lower her guard, her fingers brushing the edge of her blade. “You have nothing to say that I want to hear.”
Jason’s expression shifted, desperation flickering across his face. “I do. You don’t belong with him, Elyra. He doesn’t understand you—not like I do.” He stepped closer, his movements slow, calculated. “Come with me. I can keep you safe.”
Her heart twisted at the familiar note of vulnerability in his voice, a fleeting echo of the boy she used to know. “Jason, you don’t see what’s happening,” she said, her voice tinged with sadness. “You’re being used—by her. By Xytriana.”
