Chapter 19 - The Miracle of True Love

For a terrifying minute, the cavern was dead silent. Jesse held her tightly against his chest, refusing to let go, channeling every ounce of his ancient, royal power into reviving her fading pulse.

Then, deep within Jane’s chest, a strong, steady rhythm answered him.

Thump. Thump. Thump.

A brilliant wave of golden light washed over them both, healing her wounds, stitching her energy back together, and sealing their souls together for eternity. Jane gasped, her eyes flying open as air rushed back into her lungs.

Jesse pulled her into a crushing, desperate embrace, burying his face in her hair as he sobbed her name over and over again.

“You’re alive,” he whispered fiercely, kissing her forehead, her cheeks, her lips, as if needing physical proof that she was still there. “You saved us. You saved the entire world.”

“We saved each other,” Jane corrected softly, wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him close.

Together, hand in hand, they climbed out of the dark catacombs and stepped up into the palace courtyard as the first rays of the morning sun broke over the horizon, washing the United Packs in golden light.
