CALEB’S POV
“Does that mean ‘The Heart of Magic doesn’t exist at all…” I asked in a shaking voice.
“Unfortunately, yes son…”
My heart sank. What would I tell the Dark Lord, now? He had promised to resurrect my pack on the condition that I will give him the stone once it is recovered.
We decided to stay back in the cottage till the morning. Worry and apprehension kept me awake all night. Once I returned, the Dark Lord will find out the truth and God knows how many werewolves will become his prey.
Aurora hugged the old lady before leaving. She even promised to bring Tiara here once she had grown older. It was heart-warming to see Aurora form such a wonderful bond overnight.
My heart remained cold though. I wanted to feel the warmth, the happiness but there was only darkness; deep and unending...
I couldn’t help but wonder; would the things have been different if Aurora hadn’t come into my life? I would have been ruling the underworld with Lina.
