Blood And Silver:Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate
Chapter 98

Chapter 98 AURORA I didnt think I would sleep .

Even if I could , I knew it would only be for a few minutes .

But having Dane so close , touching so much of his skin with mine , it brought me a level of comfort I didnt even know was possible , and I was so exhausted .

I sank into the depths of unconsciousness like a rock and didnt resurface .

***** 1/5 We have to get it back ! That land is ours ! In the dream , Esther Reed was shouting at her husband .

I cowered in front of them .

They werent yelling at me .

Instead , they were yelling about me .

I was just there in the same room .

Like a table or a lamp they were arguing over .

The girl has a purpose , Waylon growled at his wife .

Well send Selene .

No you damn well wont ! Esther shouted .

Not my sweet girl .

Besides , shes barely got any meat on her bones .

That Montague boy will snap her in half .

You know what Connall stole from us .

What runs in that familys blood .

Ann can take it .

Chapter 98 2/5 In the dream , I wanted to rise and say , yes I could .

Id do anything to serve the cause .

I knew the Reeds were terrible to but it was only to make me worthy in the eyes of the one we me , served .

After all , I had tainted , disgusting moon bitch blood in me .

TL had to be beaten and burned and starved out .

Thats what it demanded .

All Id wanted my entire life was to be purged so I could better serve .

Maybe then , my parents would love me .

parents would love me .

Maybe then , the beatings would stop .

Just then , something dark entered the room .

In the dream , I was too afraid to look at it .

I just knew the lights dropped and the temperature plummeted .

All of a sudden , I could see my breath misting out in front of my face .

Send the Silver One , rumbled a voice that I didnt hear so much as feel in my mind and in my chest .

I had rarely been in the room with the entity the Reeds called , simply , the Messenger , and it made me feel awful .

Like I was breaking into a fever and about to throw up .

But also , emotional things .

Like I would never see the sun or laugh again .

This is part of her purpose , it continued in its terrible , teeth grinding way of speaking .

This is what you have been forging her for , like weak metal purified by flame .

She is our weapon , hidden in plain sight .

The blood of the bitch and the Chapter 98 blood of the guardian will … 3/5 Silver flashed , taking over my vision .

I screamed .

For a moment , there was a terrible cold heat , like moonfire burning away everything in my veins .

Then it faded , and so did the fear .

I felt … cradled .

Held , as if in a loving mothers arms .

A feeling I had only ever touched in dreams , like a wisp of a fragment of an ancient memory .

A new voice whispered in my ear .

It was so faint , at first it sounded like someone impossibly far away .

Then I heard the whisper again , and realized it wasnt far .

It was close by .

Right next to my ear .

But so quiet that even that close , I could barely make it out .

Aurora … mine … forget … The silver light faded , but I didnt return to the dark room from the first part of the dream .

Instead , I was suspended in a silver black sky salted with million , million diamond stars .

I inhaled a shaking breath , and even though it looked like I was suspended in space , there was air .

It smelled sweet as a summer but cleared my mind like a breath of cold air on a crystal winter night .

I stretched out my hands , tried to move .

I could twist around , but I couldnt move up or down , Chapter 98 4/5 If I was being honest , I wasnt even sure which direction up or down was , with nothing around me but a vast and endless ocean of stars .

Whats happening to me ? I called .

Who are you ? Aurora … mine … take … back … The scar on my inner forearm burned .

You dream too close to it , the new voice said , a little clearer .

A little stronger .

Do not go sweetly into the dark .

Do not believe … Cursed … Cursed ? Inside me , a war raged .

Shadows and moonfire .

I didnt know who I was .

I didnt know what to believe .

Words from the conversation Id overheard echoed back to me .

You know what Connall stole from us .

What runs in that familys blood .

And then … Send the Silver One .

This is part of her purpose .

This is what you have been forging her for , like weak metal purified by flame .

She is our weapon , hidden in plain sight .

What was in Danes blood ? Chapter 98 What the hell was in mine ? 5/5 Fear grew around me .

The silvery night full of stars faded , and I plummeted suddenly into blackness .

No ! came the kind voice .

And then , so faded I could barely hear , it said , Aurora , until you end the curse , even I cannol save you … I shot awake with a gasp .

Cursed ! I shouted .

Dane was already up , propped on an elbow , staring at me with horror on my face .

He was looking at my chest , where my scar from the shadow monster was .

I looked down .

My scar burned and throbbed , sending a wrenching pain through my chest with every beat of my heart .

It also glowed with a hideous , bruised purple light .

A light that was spreading .

Not just in my body , but that reached out like smoke .

Like it wanted to infect Dane .
