• Chapter 145: Unspoken Fire
• SERENA'S POV
• She watches me closely, the ancient torches flickering behind her like restless spirits, casting a soft golden glow over the delicate curve of her face. Her violet eyes—unnaturally vivid and deep—shimmer with an otherworldly knowledge, calm as the surface of still water hiding unfathomable depths. I hate how utterly at peace she looks while my entire world keeps shifting beneath me like crumbling earth in an earthquake, threatening to swallow me whole.
