Chapter 119 - THE AWAKENING ROOM

Aria

Darkness swallowed her.

Not gentle darkness.

Not sleep.

Not unconsciousness.

A heavy, breathing dark.

Alive.

Watching.

Listening to her pulse.

Aria tried to move, but her limbs felt submerged in warm water. Her heartbeat echoed like a drum inside her ears.

Then a faint golden light flickered.

Not from outside.

From inside her.

The baby.

Aria exhaled shakily. "I am here," she whispered. "I am with you."

The golden light pulsed back.

A response.

A heartbeat inside a heartbeat.

The darkness recoiled.

A faint hiss echoed around her.

And a voice whispered.

You cannot protect her.

She belongs to the blood.

Aria clenched her jaw. "She belongs to me."

A deep laugh curled through the dark.

No, child. You belong to me too.

The ground beneath her shifted. The golden light dimmed. The darkness tightened like a fist.

Aria's breath began to thin.

Her body felt pulled downward, as if something beneath her was dragging her by invisible chains.
