Chapter 149. The Connection of Visions

Simone’s POV

A shiver traced down my spine before I even opened my eyes.

Something was wrong. I felt an unwanted presence.

The air felt thick, heavy with something unseen, something ancient. My heart pounded as I forced myself to sit up, my breath coming in short, panicked gasps. I wasn’t in my room anymore. I wasn’t anywhere real.

The world around me was shifting violently.. black mist rolling like storm clouds, the sky bleeding into deep, unnatural shades of red. The ground beneath me cracked, jagged like something had torn through it.

Then, I saw her.

The same cloaked figure Alison had described to me few days ago, standing beneath the looming Blood Moon.

The witch lifted her arms, her voice ringing out in a chant that I couldn’t understand, but somehow, felt in my bones. It was dark magic, something twisted and unnatural, seeping into the air like poison.

I tried to move. Tried to speak. But my body refused to obey.
