Chapter 44: Possibility
The shards of the mirror glittered at Kieran’s feet like the remnants of a soul too broken to mend.
He stood frozen.
Breath shallow.
Heart thudding so violently it threatened to crack his ribs.
"Autumn!!!" His soul was calling out to that name.
All around him, heads were finally turning. Murmurs swelled. Faces finally saw him.Though they did not quite understand.
Before anyone could take a step or part their smug lips...
" Alpha...Alpha Kieran...My Lord!" a shrill voice came running towards them all.
A maid in a wrinkled apron burst through the crowd, panting, her hair plastered to her forehead with sweat. "It’s the girl...Autumn! She...hurt herself....she collapsed! She’s lost consciousness! There was blood!Healer Mango had to take her to the infirmary just now!"
Kieran’s vision tunneled.
"What?" His voice burst forth. Disbelieving.
