Shifted Fate Chapter 647

Aurora laughed. “He saved nothing.” She tried to pull away, but I tightened my hand without looking at her. My eyes searched Rowan’s face, and my stomach dropped. His breathing was slower. My chest was soaked with something I don’t want to think about, but I already knew it was his blood coating my skin.

I turned to Aurora, and her smile made me growl. “That spell I just finished.” Her eyes snapped to mine. “The one you tried so desperately to stop. It will shield ALL of the packs across the country, not just this one. The humans won’t be able to get on our pack lands, never mind see us. You failed.” I screamed at her, tightening my hand on her throat, causing her to struggle for air. “You failed.”

She choked, hands prying at my fingers, and then laughed. The craziness in her eyes came blazing back. “You can only save the packs, but your mate…your mate is dead.” She hit his back, and Rowan barely moved, let alone reacted. “So I guess I didn’t completely fail.” She grinned, and I lost it.

A spell popped into my mind from the burning depths of my mind, a spell so dark I never thought I would speak it. Both my wolves were crying, howling at the moon for their lost mate, as I considered it. Do it. Nix’s voice was broken. She deserves it.

Megan nodded. She deserves every fucking moment of it, and it still wouldn’t be enough.

“Cort a dev kuva.” I gritted out each word, and Aurora’s eyes grew wide. She knew the spell.

“No.” She shook her head. “You can’t.” She clawed at my hand, nails scratching at my skin, but I shifted my hand into my claws and dug in. She cried out, and I smiled.

“Kintashen.” I screamed the last word of the spell, then I pushed all the power that Rowan had gifted me into it. ” May the goddess have more mercy on your wolfs soul than I have on yours.”

Aurora’s eyes bulged. Then her skin rippled. Her body started to expand, ever so slightly, as every molecule in her body exploded. The spell, designed for its horrendous pain, took over. Every atom that made up her body grew bigger and bigger, swelling with the power I fed it. Her skin rippled with energy and blood.

And then the screams started.

Aurora’s body swelled, like it was a sponge sucking in water, but in reality it was each of her cells sucking up my power. And it was excruciating. Atoms grew to the size of sand grains, then poppy seeds. Her body was ripping itself apart down to the molecule, and there was no way to stop it. She was kept alive by the spell until her entire body ripped itself to shreds from the inside out, and then her skin gave way. Her blood flew through the sky and dappled everything in the way. What was less than a minute for me was years to her, the spell designed to trap her soul inside the pain for her to relive until the retribution was complete.

Aurora was mist, but her screams would haunt everyone in the clearing.

Rowan’s body crumpled, and I followed him to the ground, my hands fluttering around him. I didn’t know how to help him, how to save him. “Goddess, please help me.” I begged as I stared at my mate. “You’re going to be fine.” I wiped the speckles off his face as I laid him down. I grabbed his face in my hands and tried my best to hold him without causing him pain. “You are going to be okay. You are going to be healed, and then we are going to have our son.” I murmured again as footsteps flew towards us, and I heard a choked sob fly from someone’s lips.

But Rowan just smiled as he lifted his hand to my stomach, my hand covering his, pressing it against our pup. Take care of your momma, pup.” He coughed another mouthful of blood up; a trickle fell down his cheek. “She is going to need your strength.” His eyes moved to mine. “I’m sorry I won’t be able to see him grow up.” I sobbed as I shook my head.

“No.” I shook my head again. “You are going to be fine. He needs his father.” My hand grabbed her cheek, and I

watched as his eyes shifted to Erubus’s. “Please.” I begged him. I begged the gods, anyone that would listen. “You aren’t allowed to die on me.” I felt my lips tremble as I leaned over him, pressing my face against his. “We are supposed to grow old together.” I looked up as someone sank next to us. My red–rimmed eyes met my mom’s, and I shook my head. “Mom. Help us.”

She stared at me, and her eyes filled with pain. “I can’t.” She lifted her hand to touch me, but I jerked away and screamed.

“Daddy.” I turned to my dad. “Please. Help me save him.” Tears carved rivers down my face.

“Kiss me.” Rowan’s voice pulled me back to him. He tried to lift his hand to my face, but it fell. I shook my head as I wept. “Please.” I felt a choking sob break through my lips as I bent over and kissed his lips. I kissed him with all the love I could muster. “Tell…me…you…love…me.” He smiled again as my tears fell onto his face. “I want it to be …the last thing I hear.” I watched as the light started to fade from his eyes.

“I love you.” I choked out. And then the light dimmed, and I felt his soul take flight. The bridge between us grew thin. “Rowan.” I shook him. But there was nothing. His eyes stayed on me, but there was no spark, no light. Rowan, please.” I felt arms slide around me to pull me away, but I shook them off. I screamed. I screamed my pain, and all of my love ripped from me in one final roar. “RRROOOOWWWAAAANNNN.” (12)
