Chapter 28
Flora’s P.O.V
Darkness. It was all around me; all consuming and everlasting.
As a child, I had always been scared of the dark. Maybe it was the absence of the moon that made me feel like the Goddess has withdrawn her blessing from me; or maybe it was the ghostly stories that Riley used to scare me with when I was a child. But darkness was always something that frightened me…suffocated me.
But this darkness didn’t suffocate me. This darkness was…caring; filled with love.
Clay…
He was nearby, I could feel it. There was something about Clay…a kind of warmth to his aura…something that called to me. It was that same gut feeling that led me to him when he was in trouble. And now, in this darkness, it was that same feeling that was leading me to light.
