I asked, feeling my heart speed up. What was wrong with me?
“To kill it,”
Zeriyah completed, and my back slowly met the wall, and my eyes fell back on the dagger. “When we discover exactly who the vessel is tonight, we will have to stop it before it grows more powerful before the war, and right now this dagger is our best chance.”
“Would it kill the actual vessel?”
I asked and Zeriyah’s face creased, confusedly. “Or simply just get rid of the dark magic inside?”
“Both,”
Zeriyah responded, and with every word she was saying my body was reacting strangely. I felt my legs grow weak.
“But what if it isn’t Vladimir?”
I folded my arms against my chest. If the vessel was Vladimir, it would make it easier to get rid of him. But what if it was someone else? Someone who didn’t ask for this. “What if it’s someone else?”
Cora pulled from the table and sauntered to me. “At this point, it doesn’t matter, Naomi. Everyone’s life is at stake here. And the more we wait, Shota’s magic fuses with its vessel’s soul and thank the heavens it’s not someone as powerful as its last vessel, Shota. Whoever it is, we can put an end to the birth of a darkness that would destroy us all.”
Cora was right. I inhaled, deeply. I didn’t know what exactly I was thinking. This wasn’t just about one person, everyone’s life was at stake and if killing this vessel will save my loved ones, then there isn’t a choice.
My eyes left Cora’s and moved from Zeriyah to Valerie who had been quiet “You are right,”
I moved from the wall back to the table, standing next to Valerie, but my eyes never left the dagger and I felt a strong need to put a safe distance between it and I. “What does it do?”
“It may appear ordinary, but it’s not,”
Valerie said. “It was made from an ancient oak tree from the Crystal Fortress that held magic.”
“She’s right. This dagger functions with magic,”
Cora said, picking it up it began to glow and just then I noticed a glowing ring on the hilt. “It was one of the purest magical things we had back then in the Fortress. It glows like this when it comes in contact with magic, pure magic,”
she said, “And it does a different thing when it’s sourced by dark, impure magic.”
“I don’t understand.”
“Just as it channels pure magic, it has the power to trap a dark one. And since without the blood ritual, Shota’s magic is partially trapped, to end it. It just needs the right amount of magic that can match the dark magic,”
Zeriyah explained, and instantly, I knew what she meant. It was evident in her eyes.
“Me?”
I said, but it sounded more like a question in my ears.
“Yes. It’s you. Your magic can match this dark magic, or even surpass it. All you need to do is channel your magic into it, and shove this dagger into the vessel’s heart and it’ll trap the dark magic,”
Zeriyah said, and I nodded. It all sounded so easy. But I could feel something totally wrong with this plan.
“Sounds easy,”
I said.
“If we do this right, we can end this darkness permanently,”
Cora said.
“And after? What do we do with the dagger, having so much dark magic within it?”
I asked.
“We don’t know yet. We will cross that bridge when we get to it, first of all, we have to find the vessel and trap Shota’s magic at all costs,”
Zeriyah voiced.
There was a knock on the door. It was Elder Alex and Walter.
“What happened?”
Valerie asked as all three of them went closer to Elder Alex and Walter who were standing at the door.
I wasn’t interested in what they had to say, somehow, this dagger interested me more. My eyes moved back to it, and slowly I reached for the hilt, and the second my hands rested on it, I gasped, pulling away from the dagger, and jerking back from the table. I pulled up my hand, and my petrified blue eyes fell on the wide burn on my palm. My lips parted in shock, and my eyes fell back on the dagger. It f*****g burned me.
Naomi’s point of view
I still haven’t recovered from the shock from earlier when I was at the Council. The dagger had burned Adie came up with the umpteenth reason why, but none of it made sense why the dagger burnt me. I just a lie, and I could tell Valerie suspected it. At that time, I just wanted to leave that place.
My eyes shifted to the darkness already lurking outside the window. I should be on my way to the Cou down, and I had no idea why. I just didn’t want to go for the ritual all of a sudden. Maybe Killian was right. Maybe I needed some rest.
I contemplated going to Lorenzo, but I knew the spell he was working on wouldn’t be completed by no I was pulled out of my thoughts when I felt Killian’s presence within me and just then, he walked into “I thought you’d be gone by now,”
he said, leaning down to kiss me. Amid everything I was feeling, his “I will be leaving soon,”
I said, and his piercing eyes connected with mine.
“You don’t have to go if you don’t want to. I will let them know you are not feeling well,”
he said, and I “No,”
I shook my head. “That’s tempting, but I have to go. The ritual must be completed and we find ou “Alright,”
he leaned closer again, kissing me. I moaned, kissing him back. All these problems in our live Killian smirked against my lips. “We’ll do just that, I promise, when we get back from the ritual,”
he kis I smiled at him, watching him move to the washing room. I slammed my drained body on the bed and I sighed, feeling the sudden heaviness of my eyelashes. I tried pulling up from my bed as a weird feeli me was darkness.

I mind-linked Jax immediately. “Jax, where is Naomi?”
I asked. I had told him to accompany her everywhere she went and keep an eye on her.
