Chapter-36. (Life Path).

 Selene~

Lilith did not respond immediately. Instead, she slowly closed her eyes. 

Her lips started to move continuously as she whispered out some words that I could not decipher. 

Slowly, she fisted her one hand as she kept chanting those words. Unexpectedly, a white light started to peek out of her hand. 

The sight left me still.

"Lilith?" I whispered, hesitant to disturb whatever spell she was trying to cast.

She didn't answer.

Her brows furrowed, and her grip tightened as if she were holding onto something fragile yet powerful.

As Lilith continued chanting, the room felt… different.

The air grew heavier, wrapping around me like a thick blanket.

The dim candlelight flickered, casting uncertain shadows on the walls, making the space feel smaller, almost suffocating.

Why am I feeling this much anxiety?

I placed a hand on my chest, trying to calm my heart, which hammered against my rib cage.
