Chapter 76

I stared at Lucian as if he had grown two horns. "I die if the people that killed me in my past life don't die?"

Lucian's expression was unyielding, his glowing red eyes piercing through me. "It's not that simple, Kiara. Their deaths alone won't suffice. Revenge isn't just about death. It's about balance—restoring what was taken from you and setting the wrongs right and in this case you need to redeem and as well maybe…kill them."

Jason sighed beside me, rubbing his temple. "He's right. It's not a simple 'kill or be killed' scenario. Trust me, I've tried to understand it, and even I can't wrap my head around it sometimes."

I frowned, my heart pounding. "Okay, so what exactly does this have to do with people selling their souls? What's going on in the underworld, Lucian?"
