Chapter 67

~Spring’s POV~

The first hit of water was ice and thunder. The force of the initial wave nearly tossed me backward. I forced my arms forward, slicing through the current.

Fae illusions flickered in the water around me—schools of phantom fish, gleaming beasts with snapping jaws—but I didn’t slow.

"They’re not real," I muttered to myself.

Tide after tide surged and magic spiraled.

A whirlpool tried to yank me down. I twisted quickly, spun out, kicked harder.

I could see Lilith was to my left. We were evenly paced.

"Faster Solstice."

I tried to ignore Jade. She knew that if it were me in my past life, turbulence like this wouldnt matter much.
