The Truth Beneath

Melissandre immediately reached for a glass and handed it to her.

“Slowly.”

Eva drank greedily, then lowered the glass with trembling fingers.

“Am I better?”

Melissandre nodded.

“You are awake, which is a good beginning.”

Eva looked between them.

“What happened?”

Neither answered.

Her stomach tightened.

“What happened after I fainted?”

Caleb glanced toward Melissandre.

That single look told Eva everything.

They were hiding something.

Her heart began beating faster.

“No.”

Caleb looked at her.

“No what?”

“No more.”

Eva’s voice trembled, but she forced herself to continue.

“No more secrets. No more protecting me from the truth because you think I cannot handle it.”

Melissandre looked at Caleb.

Eva noticed.

“If you want me to trust you,” she said quietly, “then I need complete transparency.”

Caleb remained silent for several seconds.

Then he nodded toward Melissandre.

“Tell her.”

Melissandre approached slowly.

“Eva, what happened during the ritual was more complicated than we initially understood,”

Eva’s fingers tightened around the glass.

“How complicated?”

Melissandre took a breath.

“There is another entity inside you.”

Eva stared at her.

“Another entity?”

“A genie.”

For several seconds Eva simply looked at her.

Then she gave a short, disbelieving laugh.

“A genie? Like in the books?”

“Yes.”

“Like…”

She stopped herself.

“Like an actual genie?”

Melissandre nodded.

Eva looked at Caleb.

He did not deny it.

Her face slowly lost its colour.

“And it is inside me?”

“It has attached itself to the magical structure surrounding Avalon,” Melissandre explained. “It was placed there deliberately.”

“By who?”

“A dark witch.”

The Truth Beneath

Eva’s fingers began shaking.

“A dark witch?”

Melissandre nodded.

“And the witch created the seal that separated you from Avalon.”

Eva stared at the floor.

The words seemed impossible.

A witch.

A genie.

Avalon imprisoned inside her.

Her memories deliberately destroyed.

She suddenly felt sick.

“Nick.”

Neither Caleb nor Melissandre spoke.

Eva looked up.

“And my father.”

Her voice trembled.

“They did this to me?”

Caleb’s expression hardened.

“Yes. We believe they were involved in what happened to you.”

Eva pressed a hand against her mouth.

All the pieces she had recently recovered suddenly seemed far more horrifying.

Nick had manipulated her.

Her father had been part of the chaos surrounding her.

She had been separated from her own wolf.

Her memories had been taken from her.

lie.

The Truth Beneath

“How could they do that?”

Her voice broke.

“How could anyone do something so cruel to another person?”

Caleb moved closer.

Eva instinctively looked at him, and this time she did not move away.

“I don’t understand any of this.”

“I know.”

“I lost years of my life.”

Her eyes filled with tears.

“I forgot who I was. I forgot people I loved. I forgot…”

Her voice faltered.

Caleb’s expression softened.

“You never forgot everything completely.”

Eva shook her head.

“But they took everything else.”

Melissandre spoke quietly.

“They wanted the seal to remain strong.”

Eva looked at her.

“And now?”

The witch hesitated.

“That is where things become difficult.”

Eva’s stomach tightened.

“What does that mean?”

“The genie has made a bargain.”

“With who?”

“With us.”

Eva looked toward Caleb.

His face became unreadable.

“What bargain?”

Melissandre answered.

“It wants a specific magical stone called the Vaelithra.”

Eva frowned.

“What is that?”

“A powerful enhancement stone.”

“And if it gets it?”

Melissandre looked toward Caleb.

“It will release Avalon.”

Eva’s breath caught.

“And my memories?”

“It claims they will return.”

“Claims?”

Melissandre’s silence was enough.

Eva looked at Caleb.

“You don’t trust it.”

“No.”

“Then why would you make a deal with it?”

“I haven’t.”

“But you’re considering it.”

Caleb’s jaw tightened.

Eva suddenly understood.

“You are going after the stone.”

He did not answer immediately.

“Caleb.”

“I will do whatever is necessary.”

Eva shook her head.

“What if it is a trap?”

“It might be.”

“What if it hurts you?”

“I can handle that.”

“What if it kills you?”

Caleb looked directly into her eyes.

“I will still try.”

Melissandre stepped forward.

“Caleb, don’t make promises you cannot keep.”

His eyes remained fixed on Eva.

“I am not making a promise lightly.”

“Then what are you doing?”

His voice became quieter.

“Doing what I should have done from the beginning.”

Eva stared at him.

Caleb reached for her hand.

This time she let him take it.

“You are my mate, Eva.”

The words struck somewhere deep inside her.

“I need to make this right.”

Melissandre’s expression remained troubled.

“You cannot control what happens next.”
