“Oh! I almost forgot.” She darted over to her bag and pulled out a small black box. “Solon said this was important. He told me to make sure you wear this tonight.” She handed it to me carefully.

“What is it?” I asked as I opened the lid.

Inside lay a ruby necklace. It was deep red, cut into the shape of a blooming rose, the stone set into a delicate platinum chain. My breath caught in my throat.

“Rosecrest,” I whispered.

Della blinked. “That’s what it’s called?”

I nodded slowly, still staring at it. “It belonged to my mother. It was specially crafted by my father when they mated. The ruby was infused with his blood and bound to the Luna spirit line. It was lost during the last war. Everyone assumed it was destroyed.”

Della looked impressed. “Well, apparently someone found it and auctioned it off in the human world. Solon tracked it down and bought it yesterday. Said it was time it came back to you.”

I touched it, still in disbelief that it was there. The moment my skin brushed the ruby, it warmed gently at first and then pulsed once like a heartbeat.

“No one else can wear it,” I added. “Only the true Luna. Anyone else would be burned.”

“That’s amazing!“Della gasped.
