MY BROTHERS AND I

The darkness slowly crept through my veins. I could feel it. Every inch it consumed, it burned. The agony of the storm raging within my body was debilitating.

My senses dulled, overtaken by the pain coursing through every part of my being. Each breath was not without torment. And each moment felt like a lifetime.

My mind filled with a cacophony of thoughts, some my own and some were that of my brothers. The bond, mercilessly forcing us to bear not just our own anguish but also each other's.

Knees buckling, I fall to the ground but my eyes never leave her.

My mate. My light. My Klara.
