chapter 283
Kyan looked at me before looking at the sky and back at his father. Something flooded through him, it felt like
determination as he took off and ran outside the ruins and grabbed the Grimoire. He came back flicking through
the pages before he looked back inside the coffin, rummaging around before pulling out the talisman from
underneath Dominic. It was like the one in the dagger; it shared the same shape. I glanced down at the open
grimoire, noticing the drawing inside, a picture of the moon and the two stones. Yet as I picked up the dagger that
held the other I noticed the difference. The one in the dagger was blood red and sparkled, the one Kyan held was a
crimson color but dark and shadows made it almost appear smoky.
Eziah came to stand by me. He pocketed the dagger to return it to the moon goddess realm.
Kyan finds the spell, making both Eziah and I repeat it before nervously glancing up at the moon which was directly
above us. We recited the spell that should break the stone.
Jonah picked up the grimoire and glanced at it. Flicking through the pages. Kyan then dropped the stone in my
hand, it was cold, like holding ice and I fought the urge to drop it. Eziah places his hand over the top of mine and I
feel the stone warm, his fingertips brushing my wrist and I felt my gemini power rise to meet his, black tendrils
moved over Eziah’s hand covering the stone. Turning our hands, gold bled up mine, both coexisting as we shared
power. As we became the gemini. Warmth spread up my arm to my elbow and Eziah gasped as the cold touch of
mine moved up his.
We started to recite the chant when Jonah spoke. “It seems too simple,” he murmurs. Kyan looks back at him. “You
said they have to break the stone holding Luna, and that your father tied his life to the same stone?” Kyan nods,
glancing at the page Jonah was looking at.

“So the moon,” Jonah looks up.
“The stones, but what is this?” he points to some squiggles above a block, I look at Eziah and he shrugs.

his life force in Mara, with his magic. Using the stone as his power source, so by breaking the source he should
wake,” Kyan tells him, turning back to us. Kyan was giddy when he looked at us. | and I could feel his burning
excitement at getting his father back.
Jonah scratched his chin but Eziah and I spoke the words that Kyan said when he suddenly dropped his hands on our
shoulders. The moment he did, my body tensed as Octavian magic rushed through me. Eziah shivered and swayed
on his feet, and my arm felt like it caught fire as the heat of Eziah’s magic burned my arm and scorched the blood
in my veins.
His power intensified. Eziah’s face paled and he turned a sickly grey as my magic's cold touch seeped into him, our
power transferring between us and merging. Eziah tried to speak the words yet the more I stared at my twin, the
stronger I grew, I felt invigorated while Eziah looked like he was dying, I glanced at our glowing hands. Kyan’s head
dropped as he channelled more power into us. Eziah reached forward as we chanted and choked.
“Eziah?” I muttered, ripping my hand away from him that was holding the stone, the spell broke. The stone fell from
our hands as I clutched Eziah's arms. He swayed toward me and Kyan gasped looking at the stone on the ground
before looking at Eziah. His magic was giving me life while mine was taking his. The moment he dropped the stone
his color returned and he sucked in air.
“No, we can do this,” Eziah says, swaying on his feet. He bends down grabbing the stone again, he stumbles into
me and I grip his shoulders.

“Eziah?” I ask hauling him upright and trying to hold him steady.
“We are so close,” Eziah says. I look to Kyan in panic who stared between us before looking down at the stone
clutched in Eziah’s hands. Eziah shakes me off and stands.
“Tm fine, lets try again, it just overwhelmed me” he says holding his hand out with the stone.
Kyan watches him and glances at me and shrugs and we try again. The same thing happened, I was killing my
brother, and he was giving his life force to me the moment Kyan touched us. Eziah kept wanting to try and I looked
at Kyan pleadingly before glancing back at the coffin that held his father. How much power was needed to break
the stone, and how much would it take for it to kill my brother? Eziah holds his hand out but I take a step back.
I shake my head, “it’s killing you,” I stutter.
“T’m fine we just need to wake him up,” Eziah gasps.
“Not by sacrificing your life, no,” I tell him as Eziah steps toward me. “We can do this Marabella, this is what we are
made for. Light and darkness, it is what it needs to break it, we are so close, Dominic is right there,” Eziah says, yet
I take a step back before looking at Kyan. Pleading for him to tell Eziah no, he glances between us and looks at his
father, his shoulders dropping.
“Ella is right,” Kyan says and I felt the soul crushing pressure in my chest as disappointment rushed through me.
“No, what happens if you don't break the spell, Kyan! Does she know what Kaif’s back up plan is?” Eziah snaps at
him.
“What back up plan?” I asked, glancing between them nervously. “It’s nothing,” Kyan says, he grips his hair and his
eyes turn glassy.
“She has a right to know, she can choose,” Eziah snaps.
“I will not let her make that choice, she's you’re fucking twin,” Kyan snarls and Jonah grips his shoulder. Kyan’s
shoulder sag. He lets out a breath. “I knew it was impossible. It’s over Ella,” Kyan murmurs. He bites his lip and
nods. "It's over,"
“What backup plan?” I demand.
“You can’t harness his father’s power while carrying your child. Kyan can't for long either along with Kaif's. Kaif will
die, Kyan will lose his power, and his Lycan, trapping the Octavians in the shadows for eternity, isn’t that right Kyan,
that is Kaif’s backup plan, so don’t tell me Marabella doesn’t get a say in that,” Eziah snaps.
“What?” I gasp and my legs tremble at his words. I look at Jonah who hangs his head and Kyan glares at Eziah.
“Ts this true?” I murmur. Kyan swallows and looks away from me. “We don’t have a choice,” Kyan murmurs.
“Wait, so if we can’t wake up your father, Kaif dies?”
“Yes, but if you wake him, you will kill your brother so which is it? You want her to choose?” He growls, turning and
glaring at Eziah.
I glance between them before shaking my head. “No, No. I...”
“T can do this Mara,” Eziah says. But I shake my head. Yet I was torn, this was so fucked up. My mate or my
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbrother? How do you choose?
“One last time, just try one more time,” Eziah murmurs stepping toward me but I take a step back unable to
choose.
“It’s okay, Ella. I know you can't, therefore I will choose for you,” Kyan says, shutting the lid on the coffin. “It will be
okay,” he says but I shake my head feeling his heartbreak, despite him and Eziah not getting along he wouldn’t
make me choose between him and my brother.
“It makes no sense?” Jonah mutters.
“You’re right, it makes none at all. I should have known better,” Kyan says, stalking off back toward the trail.
“It’s over, it’s done,” Kyan says, stalking off down the trail. “Kyan!” I call after him but he disappears between the
trees and Eziah growls before going to grab me only when his hands reach out to grip my arms, my mother
appears out of thin air and he grabs hers instead.
“Mum?” I stammer. She stares off to where Kyan walked off and disappeared.
“I can do this mum!” Eziah says.
“I know, and you would for her, but what kind of mother would I be if I let my child die for the other,” she says
before glancing over her shoulder at me. Tears brimmed in my eyes as she smiled sadly. I swallowed looking toward
the trail and Jonah chased after Kyan also disappearing.
“It started with the moon and it ends with the moon,” My mothers says and I turn my tear filled eyes back to her
while she wanders over to the grimoire resting open on the coffin where Jonah placed it.
“What are you doing?” Eziah asks her.
“Cleaning out the closet,” she says looking over at me. Eziah and I look at each other.
“We all have skeletons in the closet,” she says while turning and opening the coffin again.
“We get to choose which ones to live with and I chose wrong. I can’t live with that choice.” she says.
“Mum?” Eziah says but she holds up a hand.
“I could have saved him, but I didn’t. Dominic gave his life for my daughter, he sacrificed himself for Marabella,
then stayed with you. He made you strong and I owe him this much,” she says looking down in the coffin at
Dominic.
“I don’t understand?” I tell her looking at Eziah.
“I took Kyan’s father from him once, I won’t do it again,” she says, lifting her chin and looking at us. Eziah and I try
to figure out what riddle she speaks about this time. She looks down at the grimoire reading over the pages.
"I will be the sacrifice needed, that I can live with," she says, looking down at the coffin. She grips Dominic's hand.
"A life for a life, and for that I will take the sentence of eternity," she tells him.
