I gently rubbed my neck as my eyes snapped open. For some reason, I felt weak. I yawned and stared around the room, Ryker was nowhere to be found.
Did he leave? Or what? I thought and jumped down from the bed.
"Why do I feel sore all over?" I thought and rubbed my neck, that suddenly felt itchy and like it was on fire.
I stood before the mirror, still itching the place I had seen Ryker mark yesterday, and froze. The mark was glistening black.
"Huh? What the fvck is happening?" I mumbled and stepped closer, gently placing my hair to the other side. It was two dots, same as Thyrian but a distinct glow. None of my contracted beast-men had this distinct power color, except... My thought trailed to last night, seeing Kael's face after I was marked, and I clenched my fist.
"Did he..." Just then, the curtains were pulled away and Liora walked in. "Come on, shooting stars are falling!" She said, and this made me stare at her with shock.
