CHAPTER NINE

Jace heard Fahd's broken shouts, and he followed the voice through the cave. He was deep within, and he had been right, Fahd called out to Echo, so she was here and still alive! Thank the gods. His heart skipped in his chest and a weight lifted from him. The fleece and Echo depended on him still, but she was alive! If he could kill Fahd, maybe he could save her tree, plant a new one or something and get her bound to it before she faded away. Did nymphs fade? Or did their bodies die like humans? Jace shook his head as the thoughts crushed his soul. He didn't need to think about it. She was alive, and he'd do everything within his power to keep her that way. Having her in his arms had given him a sense of purpose, more than he had ever had with the fleece. Protecting her from the wind and debris in his shifted form made him feel like a man, someone capable and not the fuck up Demetri believed him to be.

He slipped as far back into the cave as he could go, running into a couple of walls along the way before he saw a hint of orange coming from another entrance in front of him a few feet away. The flicker would have been barely noticeable had the darkness not been so...dark. Jace scrunched down, bending his long legs, taking slow steps toward the orange light. He peeked around a rock along the side of the entrance.

Roots were broken and hanging in odd directions, mangled by the dark entity that had ripped it from the ground. There was an emptiness about the tree, as if it had lost something, its spark of life perhaps. And the insects...many of them had left, and the fleece was showing through as they crawled toward something in the corner.

Fahd's dark cloak floated around him as he moved away from the corner area of the cave. Jace had no idea how he would defeat this entity. He partially shifted, bringing forth his ram forehead and elongating his horns. He would charge him, find out where Echo was, grab the fleece, and flee. Perhaps then he could call upon his brothers to come out and help. It was a long shot, but he had to do something to get what he came for. He would not leave without Echo or his fleece.

Jace snorted, and dust whirled up from the ground. He pushed his leg back, took a deep breath, and charged with everything he had straight for Fahd. The one thing he managed to have on his side was surprise. Fahd hadn't yet realized Jace was there. His feet clunked along the ground, and the entity turned. Jace pushed his head down, pointing his horns straight at Fahd's gray chest.

Too much momentum, too fast, and before he
