Chapter 15

Gray eyes.

An ache gripped my heart. They were my grandmother’s eyes.

No… my father’s.

His large hands held mine once again, and once again he pressed the tungsten and copper ring into my palm. But I was older this time—not the child version of myself, but the “me” of today. I was covered in white marble dust, and bright red scratches marred my unnaturally pallid skin.

“This will keep you safe,” my father promised, closing my fingers around the ring. The metal was cool in my palm.

“No!” I shook my head, trying to force the piece of jewelry back into his hand. “No, it won’t.”

He hesitated, seeming to truly see me for the first time. A look of pain crossed his face.

“I know it won’t. But I have to try.”

A woman watched us from over his shoulder. She had long red hair like mine, and she smiled at me as if she had no idea of the danger approaching. A second woman stood off to the side. She was petite, with short gray hair and kind eyes. My grandmother. But younger than I’d ever known her.

Farther behind them, another man stood. He looked familiar, but I couldn’t place him. He was tall and lanky, with brown hair and dark circles under his eyes. Rain? He was smiling at us too.

Didn’t any of them realize the danger that was coming? The death?

The Great Death.

It was coming.

And there was nothing my father could do to change that.

“You can’t stop it,” I whispered, meeting his fearful, sad gaze.

My father nodded, pressing the ring back into my palm. “I know. But I have to try.”

White light burst from my hand like a bomb, engulfing us all.
