Chapter 222 Completing The Circle Part 1

• Aurora’s P.O.V
• I could feel the weight of the atmosphere shift, the air growing heavier as the house began to tremble. It wasn’t just the walls or the floor beneath our feet. It felt as though the very foundation of the place was cracking, groaning under some unseen force. The intricate designs that had once graced the rooms around me were peeling away, their beauty now eroding like fragile paper left too long in the rain. The grand chandeliers swayed unnaturally, casting eerie shadows that seemed to move of their own accord.
• “Aurora, stay close,” Caleb's voice cut through the chaos. His hand gripped my arm, pulling me to his side as chunks of debris tumbled from above. I barely had time to process the panic in his eyes before a large piece of plaster came crashing down between us. He shoved me back, shielding me with his body as more debris fell from the ceiling, rattling the house as if it was a toy on the brink of being crushed.
