Chapter 119 AURORA Luna heir , come quickly ! Trajan boomed from the door of my suite of rooms .

Theyve found Evander ! I gasped and jumped to my feet .

Id barely seen Dane for days .

I wasnt sure why he had started to ignore me , but I had .

to pretend to be grateful .

It meant I couldnt spy on him for Holden .

Instead , Id kept to my own rooms , trying to force myself to understand more of the journal while Trajan kept me updated on the search .

It was so hard to concentrate , Id barely learned anything new .

I ran from my room and met Trajan in the hall .

Is he safe ? Are the children with him ? Trajans face was grave .

Hes in the infirmary .

Hes … alive .

But no , the twins werent with him .

I gripped the pearl pendant , my grief and disappointment warring with relief for Evander .

Id found the necklace on my desk and put it back on after the ceremony .

I suppose it always had been meant for me , just like I thought .

Now , there wasnt as much comfort in that as I had thought Chapter 119 there would be .

I ran past Trajan, and he followed me to the infirmary .

There were a few wolves there I assumed the ones who had found him , Celia , the healer , was also there .

As was Piper , still unconscious in her own bed .

2/5 1 licked my lips , remembering what had happened the last time I was in this place .

I wouldnt go near Piper , but I had to see Evander .

I ran over to his bed , and the wolves there stepped aside .

Luna heir , its … Celia started .

I gasped when I saw Evander .

Once , I had been poisoned with silver and beaten to within an inch of my life .

They did it to trick Dane into thinking I was a victim , so he would be distracted by taking care of me and they could sneak past him onto Montague land .

The beating the Reeds had given me was nothing compared to what theyd done to Evander .

It looked like theyd shredded every inch of his skin .

Blood was everywhere .

They only reason I believed it was him at all was because he moaned and blinked open lilac eyes just like mine .

I grasped his hand .

Evander , what have they done ? Aurora .

He gripped my hand .

Tears gathered at the corners of Chapter 119 his eyes .

I was so close .

Im sorry .

I failed … No ! I said fiercely .

Youve done nothing wrong .

3/5 The twins , he whispered .

Blood gathered on the corners of his .

lips .

Something in me shifted and shimmered a sense Id never had before .

But now it was like I could feel the life in his body , feel his injuries , and feel him slipping away .

He was dying .

That was the gift the moon goddess had given me .

I could sense him fading .

Evander , you have to hold on .

I placed my other hand on top of his , so I was gripping it in both of mine .

Tears burned behind my eyes .

Please , you cant leave me .

I need you .

The twins need you .

The twins , he said again .

Theyre … he coughed , and droplets of blood flecked his lips .

The Reeds have them .

They lied .

They want … He coughed again .

The new power I sensed in my body told me he was almost gone .

Dont talk .

Please .

I glanced at Celia , but she shook her head at me .

Hes lost too much blood .

His wounds are too deep .

No ! I closed my eyes .

This gift from the goddess had to do 4/5 Chapter 119 more than tell me if someone was dying .

Id tried to make light like Evelyn and failed .

I had tried to shift , but still had no wolf .

Id wondered if the goddess had tricked me and given me nothing at all .

But now , here , by my grievously injured cousin , it was like my eyes opened .

Camila told me I was a queen , but she had also used the word healer .

Aurora , what the hell are you doing in here ? a deep voice snapped .

Dane ! Hed be angry I was close to Piper after what happened with his grandfather .

But I wasnt going to leave my cousin .

I exhaled , feeling the cool sensation of my gift moving through me .

Maybe , if I pushed it into Evander … Get her out of here , I heard Dane say .

Hands closed over my arms .

No ! Evander ! I pushed harder , imagined the cooling water flowing from me into him .

Imaging it taking his pain , closing his wounds , becoming new blood to heal his injuries .

Celia gasped .

So did Evander .

I opened my eyes .

Evander was glowing as if he were lit by swirling moonlight .

He gasped , and this time he didnt cough .

Was it working ? Was I actually healing him ? Chapter 119 Dane stood nearby ; his eyes wide .

5/5 At the sight of him , something painful surged through me .

My power leaped and skittered out of my control .

The light around Evander grew and flashed bright .

He cried out .

And then my power … jumped .

It flew from Evander in a line like lightning … It sizzled to the other side of the room and hit Danes unconscious sister Piper .
