CHAPTER 26 ARESI could barely move. Every single time I tried to escape this dog cage that Hella’s servant had placed me into, every time I touched the silver bars that bound me here, my skin would sizzle. This silver metal was stronger than anything in the Sanguine Wilds. The door opened, and I held my breath at the thought of seeing Hella. I wanted to rip her to shreds for what she had done to me. I only hoped that she hadn’t laid a finger on my Aurora because if she did… My chest tightened, my throat closing up. If she touched Aurora, I would lose it. Instead of Hella—or Nyx—Marcel walked into the room. I sucked in a deep breath, watching his every single move, yet still, he didn’t look over at me. Not one f*****g time. He was either ignoring me or they had done something to him.
