Ten years had since passed, yet Ylianor still shivered at the memory of the devastating pain she had worked so hard to forget. But Duncan Caldwell knocking at her door after a ten-year absence from her life had brought it all back in a flash. 


Wearily, she sat next to her father’s bed, glad that he had dozed off and seemed at peace after so many days of suffering and bad temper. She caressed his brow lovingly, checking on his lights. Like she had noticed earlier, they were fading fast, dimming one after another, which was what had made her reasonably sure he would not last the night. 


If she had not said as much to Duncan, it was because he would have thought she was crazy or a witch, like most people believed. One look at his aura and she had realized he knew nothing of the power he must have inherited from his father. Or so it felt because she had seen the odd current coursing through him. Like a wave of no color, or rather of all colors blended together, it had been one man’s distinctive trait. Now that man was long dead, and his son was as unaware of it all as when they had been kids, and he had chased her on every one of Black Rose’s hills. Then that other one had come, and things had never been the same again. Then Prince Charles had died, and things had gone from bad to irretrievably worse. So unbelievably horrible, Duncan seemed to have lost all memory about her. 


Saddened by the mere thought, she closed her eyes to repress the tears welling at the back of her throat. No, she did not want to remember that terrible day she had gone looking for him in Black Rose, in open violation of his mother’s order, only to find she had become a total stranger to him.
