Chapter 187

• Aysel's POV
• Dariusz and Damon were old allies. When I heard about the trip, Dariusz insisted on joining too. Back then, he was a key member of Damon's project, and given their personal ties, Damon couldn't refuse. What started as a voyage for two soon became a pack affair-but I hadn't expected Dariusz to drag Celestine along as well.
• The so-called "distraction" never distracted anyone. Instead, Damon and I ended up bearing the shadow of a death.
