บท 100: Chapter 100 Burnout

Jack’s POV

I held my mate close as the fire slowly burned out, the ashes flying away and melting with the dark skies. I knew she blamed herself and that she didn’t truly want a war right now.

I nuzzled her cheek, pulling her a little closer as a cold breeze swept over the earth. The fire from the pyre had kept us all warm while it still burned, but now that the fire was out, the cold winds of the season were making their appearance.
