Blood And Silver:Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate

Chapter 191 AURORA The air aroundwas oppressive as if even the forest itself had set against us.

The raw smell of the earth cwith something far darker beneath it fear, and something else, a creeping stench from the Nameless growing in power.

The words of Morwen about the relic replayed in my mind, but they were drowned by the chaos surrounding us.

I hadnt expected this ambush, and neither had anyone else.

We ran .

Again.

Go faster! I yelled, somehow harsh already as I turned to see Evander lag behind me.

He panted, his breathing ragged, the marks on his arms and neck glowing bright with each step.

I could feel the strain on his face, his jaw clenched tightly as he struggled against what was building inside of him.

Evander, keep moving! Trajan yelled, sharp but with a lot of concern.

Chapter 191 I cant, Evander gasped, body convulsing as he fell to his knees.

No! I shrieked, spinning around as a dark surge exploded from him .

It was like watching an explosion of a storm from his core.

Darkness shot out in circles, cutting the air with a horrible scream .

2/7 It shook the earth, and this dark magic slammed into the trees, bursting them into shattered wood.

Evander, stop! I cried, but it was useless.

Once more, the darkness struck, this tfinding a member of our pack who ran with us.

With a sharp cry, he was thrown backward into the bulk of a tree.

Fall back! Trajan yelled then, his hard grip upon my arm as he yankedin his wake with the mess expanding. Now his screams were serious, a pure sound of agony, and his hands clawed as if to tear the markings from his skin.

Evander ! Piper screamed above the noise, as ineffective as the rest of us.

The energy boiling inside of him couldnt be stopped by the Chapter 191 trees, against the fence, in all directions from his body.

More members of the pack went down under it, their cries piercing into the dark.

3/7 Get him out of here ! I screamed at Trajan, my eyes welling hot with tears.

I cant ! Trajan yelled back, voice cracking.

Hes too far gone! A further burst of dark energy burst from Evander, and they all scattered.

Dane alone didnt move back and took a step further toward Evander, face set in sweird decision despite the clear peril.

Dane, no! I screamed, but of course, he didnt listen.

He reached Evander at just the moment another surge of magic erupted.

Dane launched himself into it, taking its hit.

I watched in horror as with a force that sent him falling across the ground, blood streaked his face.

Dane! I cried, rushing to his side.

He was on all fours, coughing brutally, but he still glanced up at me, smiling weakly.

Youre okay.

Thats what matters.

Chapter 191 No! I shouted, dropping to my knees next to him.

You dont get to say that ! We need you, Dane ! He shook his head, and his voice was barely audible over a whisper.

Aurora, you have to go.

Now.

4/7 Im not leaving you! I exclaimed, my hands shaking with the effort of trying to pull him to his feet.

His hand wrapped over mine, halting me.

His grip was weak but firm enough to cause no argument.

Listen to me, he said, his eyes locking onto mine.

If the Nameless catches us both, it is over.

You need to survive.

You need to fight.

Tears streamed down my face as I shook my head.

I wont be able to do this without you.

Yes, you can, he said, his voice breaking.

Youre much stronger than you think.

Before I could say more, the sound of footsteps and laughter soaked through the trees.

The Namelesss forces were closing in.

Chapter 191 Go, Dane begged, desperation seeping from his Please, Aurora.

Do not let them win.

5/7 eyes.

I hesitated so much as hesitated, my heart aching at the sight of him pale skinned, bruised body, yet the resolve in his eyes unwavering.

Ill be back for you, I whispered, my voice shaking .

He smiled weakly.

I know you will.

I forced myself to my feet, my body screaming in protest.

Trajan grabbed my arm, pushingaway as I moved back, my eyes never leaving Dane.

I didnt make it that far.

I hid behind a tree, watching in helpless horror as the Nameless forces descended on him .

They pulled him up, holding him to his feet.

One of them cuffed him across the face and I cried at the blood trickling e off his lip. Wheres your strength now, hero ? one sneered .

Dane said nothing.

He stood tall, his jaw clenched, his eyes filled with determination .

Another blow came, and I bit on my hand to stop a sob.

Chapter 191 They pulled him away, and I saw the Nameless step forward

6/7 It was suffocating just to breathe the sair as him, his form was wrapped in darkness pulsing with evil intent. He leaned in close to Dane, his voice low, cold.

You thought you could defy me? Foolish.

Dane didnt flinch.

You wont win, he said, his voice firm despite the pain.

The Nameless laughed.

It was a cold, wicked sound that sent shivers down my spine.

Oh, but I already have.

I watched them drag Dane into the darkness, his figure swallowed up.

My legs got weak and I went down hard onto the earth, crying so hard.

Moments later, Trajan and the rest found me.

They said nothing.

There was nothing to say.

Their eyes reflected the sanguish in mine.

I held myself, my body as the weight of our loss crushed down onWe cant keep losing like this, I whispered, breaking down.

We cant ...
