Chapter 127

~Author’s POV~

Meanwhile... Titania walked ahead, keeping her posture poised and regal despite the wild terrain. Marianne struggled to keep up, her boots sinking slightly into the mossy forest floor as they entered a quiet grove—bathed in soft violet light, a place that felt... suspended from time.

When Titania finally stopped, she turned with a fluid sweep of her arm and looked down at Marianne.

"Show me what you saw."

Marianne hesitated, then reached into the folds of her sleeve and produced a rough sketch, hurriedly drawn. On it was the tear-shaped gem—the necklace. She had traced its outline from memory.

Titania took it, staring at the image for a long moment.

Then her lips parted.

"It’s real."

Marianne frowned. "So... the rumours—"

"Are no longer rumors." Titania’s voice turned quiet but cold. "That necklace belonged to Valerie after she stole it from us. Which means it likely contains more than we know ot seem to protect."

Marianne swallowed. "A core fragment?"

Titania didn’t answer. Instead, she stepped closer.

Marianne’s heart pounded.

Titania’s eyes darkened. "If you want it so badly, then I suggest you change strategy.."

Marianne’s jaw tightened. "So what do you want me to do?"

Titania leaned in, voice cold as frost. "Watch her. Stay close. And when the time comes—retrieve the necklace."

"And the girl?"

Titania’s expression didn’t change. "We only need the relic."

Marianne blinked. "But... what if she unlocks it?"

Titania’s smile was razor-thin. "Then she’ll die for what she doesn’t understand. You, be prepared and leave the rest to chance and proper planning."

"As you wish."

"Good,’ Titania called out from the side before walking off. "Next time, be subtle."

~Valerie’s POV~

Later That Evening – Dormitory, Room.

Immediately after I arrived from class, I only wanted to take a nice, cold bath to relax my nerves.

Training was hard and nice, but what I truly wanted to do was shift.

My first shift had not been so painful as it should have been, and it did not scare me to want it to happen again.

Other than that, Astra wanted so much to come out and enjoy herself. I felt bad keeping her in but we were in a school filled with prying students and the last thing i wanted was for them seeing my streaked wolf.

I undressed quickly and stepped into the bathroom.

The steam from the bathroom still clung to the walls as I stepped out minutes later, towel wrapped tight around my chest, my skin flushed from the heat.

I reached for my robe, pulling it on slowly while drying the ends of my damp hair with a smaller towel.

My phone vibrated on the bed beside my folded clothes.

I blinked once when I noticed the caller ID was an unknown number.

I frowned, unlocking it.

Meet me at the back gate. Near where you and I entered the other day. Alone.

No name showed up in the contact... but I didn’t need one.

Dristan.

Just beneath the message, he added a second line.

Dristan: You already know who I am, I presume, mate.

Me: Meet you for what?

Dristan: You’ll see when you show up.
