Aether, Selene, Kai, Xara, Velc, and Leon... all followed Vesperine's steps as she carefully led them toward the outskirts of the Frostbalde Territory.
Aether and Xara exchanged a quick glance, both frowning. There was something unsettling about the path Vesperine was leading them on... it was obvious now—she was really heading in that direction.
A direction only Aether and Xara knew existed.
'How could she possibly know about this place?' The question echoed silently between them.
It was turning into a complicated mess...
Aether hadn't told Selene anything about Xara's secret. He had deliberately kept it hidden. He wanted Xara to be the one to come clean, not him. It wasn't his story to tell, and if it got revealed the wrong way... it might shatter their already fragile family.
That wasn't something Aether ever wanted—but now, things were slipping out of control.
