Darkness.
Complete darkness.
No sky.
No stars.
No sound.
Nothing.
Selena slowly opened her eyes.
Her heart pounded wildly.
The last thing she remembered was the Devourer stepping into the White Silence.
Then—
Everything disappeared.
“Damian?”
Her voice echoed through the darkness.
No answer.
Fear immediately gripped her chest.
“Damian!”
A soft hand touched hers.
Selena spun around.
The Child of Balance stood beside her.
The little girl looked confused.
Scared.
“Mommy?”
Relief flooded Selena.
She pulled the child into a hug.
The little girl immediately buried her face against her shoulder.
“Where are we?”
Selena shook her head.
“I don’t know.”
A familiar voice suddenly answered.
“I do.”
Both turned.
Damian stepped out of the darkness.
Alive.
Safe.
Selena ru
