Chapter 223 – Rescue [2]
After his call with Alea, Kaden was still running through the empty corridor of his house, his steps silent against the carpeted ground.
The sun had crawled back to sleep.
The moon graced the world, glowing with a neon blue light streaked with crimson at its edges.
There was no one around him.
His father was surely in the underground forge, hammering away and honing his blacksmith's craft. His mother was in her training ground, losing herself to the rhythm of battle.
That was their routine during the nights inside the Warborn household.
And as for Daela…
Kaden abruptly halted, his eyes narrowing as a new presence appeared before him.
Black hair like condensed darkness, golden eyes glowing with a purity and innocence almost unbearable for this malevolent world.
Eimi. The childhood friend of Zaki.
