I healed as many as I could until I felt drained and dizzy. With each person I
tunneled power into, I could feel
something leave me, I could feel a part of my essence being stripped away but I
couldn't stop. I knew that I was meant to heal them, it was my fault they were in
this position anyway. Whoever this witch was, it was me they had a problem with
and not the innocent pack members. The least I could do was to ensure that no
one died
because of me.
I wasn't sure how I managed to ride back to the palace and not slip off my horse.
I could barely hold on and I had to lie flat against it. By the time I arrived, I
noticed Kevin pacing around the stables. He saw me and rushed over almost as
if he had been searching for me.
“Your majesty,” he whispered. “Where did you go? I have been looking for you for
an hour now. Are you alright?”
He helped me off my horse and I nearly slumped to the ground. If not for him
grabbing onto me to hold me up, I would've fallen. He was clearly concerned, I
knew that much as he looked me over for any obvious signs of
injury.
“What do you want me to do, your majesty?” he asked. “Do I take you to the
prince?”
“No,” I ground out immediately. If Ryker saw me like this, he was going to be
pissed. I had at least until later this morning to keep my secret. “Can you help me
to my room please? I don't want anyone finding out about what happened here
tonight.”
He pursed his lips but nodded and led me into the palace. He made sure to take
the lesser traveled halls which meant a longer walk but I didn't mind. It was a
battle to keep my eyes open but I somehow managed to do it. Once we got to the
room, I almost moaned in relief. My bones hurt and there was something in the
center of my chest- a burning feeling that I could not get rid of. Kevin didn’t want
to walk into the room but it was obvious that I couldn't go in on my own. He led
me to the bed and gently helped me into a sitting position but I couldn't even hold
that for long before I flopped backwards.
“Thank you,” I whispered and he nodded. He didn't leave immediately though, he
stood there in the center of the room watching me carefully.
“Are you sure that you are alright? It would not take long to get the prince here.”

“I am fine, leave Ryker to whatever he is doing,” I mumbled trying to hide my hurt
at the fact that he didn’t even
try to return to the room.
Kevin obviously didn’t agree with me but he nodded and turned on his heels then
walked off. I heard the door click shut and I let go of the facade I was holding
onto and groaned. Exhaustion burned through me and for the first time in my life,
I felt like I couldn't move. My head was spinning, my limbs felt like lead and my
mouth tasted metallic with a tinge of ash. I closed my eyes hoping to just take a
deep breath but I didn’t end up re-opening
them.
When I finally managed to open my eyes, I found myself in front of that same
eerie mirror as before. It was a bit larger this time with intricate designs in the
metal stand. I tried to make them out knowing they told a story butt my head hurt
too much and my focus was on the reflection.
I was bleeding but instead of leaking red blood, something white and clear was
oozing out. It wasn’t just coming out of one hole, there were many all over my
body. I watched as some of those holes closed up but a few never did. It was a
clear warning, I was risking too much, doing too much and I let out an
exasperated sigh. I didn’t want this, I just wanted my pack to be happy. I turned
away from the mirror, lay flat on my back and closed my eyes. I couldn't stop
what I had already done. The past was in the past. I only hoped that Ryker would
be able to. find who was responsible before I completely destroyed myself.
I felt the brightness of the sun against my skin and soft murmuring by my ears.
There was warmth all over my body, as if I were lying in the middle of a lake. I
managed to peel my eyes open only to find Ryker and Lyla standing there. Lyla
looked relieved but Ryker on the other hand was nothing short of pissed. His lips
were turned down in a frown and he had his hands crossed over his chest. I
knew what this was about but I decided to
feign ignorance.
“Hello,” I began with a yawn and a long stretch. “Is something wrong? Why are
you hovering around my bed?”
“You were healing again,” Lyla’s voice was soft. “I tried to speed it up using a
potion so you would wake up. How do you feel? Are you hurt anywhere?”
“No,” not physically at least. The only hurt I could feel was om the inside and it
was never going to be fixed, not until I died. “Thank you, Lyla, but I am fine now,
you don't have to come to me whenever I am asleep. I'll definitely wake up on my
own.”
“You will, but it might take days and unfortunately days are-"
“Get out,” Ryker said calmly and we both turned to him. I hadn't expected him to
be so direct but he wasn't even looking at Lyla, he was looking at me. When no
one moved for a minute, he spoke again. “Thank you for your
help, Lyla but I need you to leave so that I can converse with my mate about
making irresponsible and stu pid decisions.”
Lyla shot me a small smile of encouragement before walking out of the room.
She had barely shut the door behind her when Ryker exploded. To say that he
was pissed would have been an understatement, the tips of his ears had turned
red and he was yelling- he almost never yelled at me. No matter what I did, he
spoke quietly and calmly but this time was different.
“Are you insane?” he exclaimed. “What were you thinking by healing them all?
Didn't you listen when Lyla told you the first time that you were taking parts of
yourself? Do you care so little about your own life that you feel the need to put it
in danger all the time.”
“That isn't what I'm doing,” I mumbled but he simply shot me a disbelieving look
and crossed his arms over his chest. “I couldn't just let them die. It was my fault
that she attacked them in the first place. Besides, you said you
were close to finding out who she is, what is a few more people when we will
soon have her?”
He ran his hands through his hair. “I never said we were close, Camilla, and even
if we find out who she is, we
don't know where she is or how to defeat her. You are putting yourself in
unnecessary danger. I should have
known that Kevin would do a s hit job.”
My brows furrowed. “What does this have to do with Kevin?” he didn’t respond
but I knew he had heard me so I repeated my question again. “Don't lie to me,
Ryker.”
“I asked him to watch you after receiving the letter but clearly I should have
known better. Would it help if I actually locked you in the f ucking room? Would
you sit still if I did that? For f ucks sake, Camilla.”
“I was just helping.”
“It's not about that!” he all but screamed. “You went out there alone and used
your powers. I have seen how
weak and exhausted that makes you. Did you ever stop to consider that maybe
she was banking on that? What would have happened if you used your powers
and you couldn't make it back home? What would have happened if she took
you?”
I stayed silent because I hadn't thought about that. I was so concerned with
helping them that I never once stopped to consider the threat to my own life. I
couldn't help but feel st upid for the first time today. I couldn't
even meet Ryker’s eye anymore.
He let out a deep breath before taking a seat next to me. “I just need you to be
honest with me, Camilla. We cannot do this if you are not honest with me. I
cannot spend every waking hour of my day worrying about your
3/4
Your dreams of fantastic fictions
“You're right and I am sorry, I just felt bad because they were hurt because of me.
They were hurt because I wouldn't give myself up,” I mumbled. “Maybe I should
just surrender. We could possibly try to ambush her with a surrender, don’t you
agree? It might work.”

“Is everything okay?” he asked and she nodded.
“Caius and Lyla- I never thought I would ever say that- they need to see you.
They say it is urgent.”
