Adina's body shuddered with dread the moment they crossed into the Crystal Moon territory. Kora had slipped her hand into hers, and she held on tight.
In less than ten minutes, the carriage rolled to a stop, and they had finally arrived at the very place every pup of Crystal Moon had been told to stay away from the crypt.
It was where troubled souls were buried, the elders had said. It was a place the living should never step into. Anyone buried or tossed into the crypt was considered troubled. Originally, Roman was going to toss her right into the crypt but thought better of it. Sending her to the king seemed like a much worse punishment to him, and Adina had never been more thankful for that.
The carriage's door opened, and standing right outside it was Radek, his creepy gaze settled on Adina, and he grinned. "We've arrived," he said, "The Crypt of Noctra."
