The book I was reading was filled with mysteries, and with each page, my astonishment multiplied. However, that shock quickly turned to fury as I approached the final chapters. My eyes gleamed with anger as I absorbed the words on the page.
This book held the key to resurrecting Sylvia by returning her soul to her body. It was no surprise that Rhys wanted me to steal it for him. Yet, the process described for bringing Sylvia back to life was shockingly cruel. It required a sacrifice —specifically, a life for a life.
If Rhys wanted to resurrect Sylvia, he would have to kill someone who had been betrayed by love, someone fatally wounded in the heart. As I delved deeper into the book's ritual requirements, my heart sank.
