Ashleigh ran down the hall without a second thought.
She had to stop it and prevent the Dark Queen from accessing the full power of the ley line.
‘You’re being reckless!’ Lily shouted in her mind.
‘There is no more time left!’ Ashleigh shouted back. ‘If I don’t stop her now, we lose everything!’
‘And if you get yourself killed before reaching her, you will stop nothing!’ Lily growled.
Ashleigh knew she was right, but she was so close. If she could stop the Dark Queen here and now, this would all be over. The war, the mutations, the death and destruction that seemed never-ending.
No one else would have to die. Families would be reunited. Bell and Galen, she and Caleb.
She swallowed and pushed ahead even harder.
There was a light ahead, a doorway of some kind. Based on Alpha Cain’s writings, this was the entrance to the mound. The way to the end.
