Chapter 20
âAs in the Isaia? The one that prophesied the war?â I asked, like there were a million people out there named âHigh Prophetess Isaia.â But the idea that this powerful being had been part of my missing past in some way was more than I could take in.
âThe one and only. She was the one that prophesied the war would happen and no one listened.â
âWe were the ones that lived to regret it,â Aspen mumbled.
âIt was so clear the block on your mind was done purposefully. It has me curious as to who you really are.â
âIâm just a half human, half shifter Dormant Soul,â I murmured.
âOr you could be the one she envisioned ending the war.â
I burst out laughing, I couldnât help it. I was a nobody, a waste of air and resources. I wasnât a hero hiding in the shadows just waiting on my chance. And I sure as heck wasnât an underdog with some untapped âsave-the-worldâ potential.
âDandelionâ¦â A twinge of warning laced the alphaâs tone, slicing through the fog of humor in my brain.
I sobered, dropping my head and mumbling what I hoped was an apology.
Axel collapsed into one of the oversized couches. He motioned for me to sit across from him.
âYou know she is a Dormant Soul, right?â Eveâs voice ascended on me like a bucket of ice water.
Axelâs head whipped around so fast I heard a crack. âAre you calling me dense, woman?â
My nose scrunched at the way he said woman like a curse word. Ignoring the understanding of what the alpha had been talking about earlier when I said âalpha,â I focused on watching their exchange.
âLike I know it isnât contagious or anything but still. There is a certain ick factor you have to consider and there really isnât enough soap in the world to, like, wash the couch off after she sits on it.â
âThen I suggest you find a new place to sit in the future.â I swear the windows shook under the pressure he was omitting.
The look of fury on Eveâs face made me want to shrink away. No punishment had been given to me yet and I didnât need to piss anyone off more. I curled my shoulders in, forcing myself to look like prey.
âSit,â the prophet said to me, short and clipped.
I paused. Glancing up, I found Eve looking ready to murder me. With the prophet waiting and my pulse racing, I lowered myself to the very edge of the couch, careful to touch as little of it as possible.
âIsaia was a peculiar one,â Axel said, leaning back against the cushions. âThe Council couldnât control her. She was always hopping on planes, back when the world still had them, and flying around the world. She took me with her once. It was an exhausting trip. We saw everyone from Nephelium to fae to humans. We went from inside castles to under bridges. She saw all these people that everyone else wrote off as meaningless, but their futures were⦠unbelievable.â
âReally?â Jaxâs perfect skin tone flushed with excitement.
