The Alpha King And His Chosen Luna novel Chapter 224

A future written in blood-3

Silence filled the office.

Sera looked at me before turning back to Isla. Pryor’s face changed, but he said nothing. I kept my attention on my mate. She needed me to remain calm.

“You fell into my arms.”

“I’m here.”

“There was so much blood.”

“It was a vision.”

“You died, Caius.”

The words struck harder than I expected. Isla looked at me as though she had watched it happen only moments ago. To her, it hadn’t felt like a possibility. It had felt real.

I cupped her face in both hands.

“Look at me.”

She did.

“I am alive, and I intend to remain that way.”

Her eyes searched mine. She wanted to believe me, but the vision had planted fear too deeply. I pressed my forehead against hers. Our bond opened between us, carrying everything I couldn’t put into words.

“No.”

Isla answered before I could. Every face turned toward her. She sat straighter while keeping one hand wrapped around mine.

“If we cancel, we’ll never know which one of them wants the journal buried.”

“You’re not going near them,” I said.

“I have to.”

“No.”

She held my gaze.

“They’re coming because of me too.”
