Chapter 358

A Solution “I do. I happened upon some helpful hints in a grimoire or two in my luggage that gave me some answers. We’re lucky enough to be in a part of the world that grows what I need, so I’ll be back before we leave…. I have to go find some very rare plants.” That upbeat tone of a woman who is smug with her discovery and confident in her own remedies. “Wait.” Colton hesitates, grabbing her arm as she moves to pass, and my heart stops in my chest, which is already hammering like a war drum. I know he’s hesitating about whether he wants this or not. He probably has the same thoughts swirling in his head as I do about the outcome should Sierra be free of my life burden. “This is a good thing, Cole…. Sierra and Alora unbound. Sierra is already so far through her life cycle. Alora has barely begun ….. you know when Sierra’s time comes, Alora will leave too if they are still bound.” Meadow is the voice of reason, even if that time is a long way away in our life cycle. She’s right, though.
