Chapter 45 The Final Confrontation

• Theme: Strength and Survival
• Aria’s POV
• The area is drenched in the cold light of dusk, and the air crackles with energy. Selene and I circled each other, our eyes locked in a heated stare. Every muscle in my body aches with tiredness, but I feel a fire burning within me that I haven’t felt in years. The conflict had hit its peak, and for a minute, it appeared that Selene had the upper hand. Her strikes are fierce and continuous, and I’m driven into the defensive. But even as she gives blow after blow, a stubborn voice within me refuses to let me succumb.
