When the Last Candle Sang to the Ocean Wind by Aurelion Kyre Solvane 16 Summary In this intense chapter, Carrie stands at the edge of a cliff, visibly fragile and tearful, expressing her despair and feeling unwanted, particularly by Blair. Her brothers-Christian, Lysander, Zayden, and Orion-frantically try to persuade her to step back, showing deep concern and fear for her safety. Carrie claims Blair does not want her alive, which prompts the brothers to demand Blair say something to stop her.

Blair, however, remains calm and challenges the brothers' accusations, denying ever saying Carrie's presence was unbearable. This moment of confrontation causes confusion and disbelief among the group. Just as tensions peak, Carrie throws herself off the cliff but is caught by her brothers in a desperate rescue.

Continue Regular Chapter Reading Below Chapter 8 Blair's Perspective The wind roared fiercely around us, a wild force that seemed to echo the turmoil in my chest. Carrie stood perilously close to the cliff's edge, her white dress billowing wildly in the gusty sea breeze. She looked so delicate, almost like a fragile sheet of paper ready to be torn apart by the slightest touch. "Carrie!" The three brothers shouted urgently, their voices thick with worry. "Step back!

Come back to us!" She slowly turned toward them, tears streaming down her face, glistening in the dim light. "Christian... Lysander, all of you..." Her voice trembled with pain. "I don't want to leave you. But Blair doesn't want me here. I'm already dying inside-maybe it's better if I just end it now. At least then, I won't be a burden to Blair anymore..." The four of them immediately whirled around and shot me furious looks. "Blair!" Christian shoved me forward, desperation coloring his tone. "Say something!

Bring her back!" I stood silently, watching the tense moment unfold, feeling strangely detached. "Are you seriously going to push her to the edge? Literally?" Lysander yelled, voice cracking with anger and fear. "Just say something, please!" I met their eyes steadily and said quietly, "You keep insisting I can't stand her being here. Do you have any proof of that?" The air suddenly froze; time seemed to pause. "I've never said that," I continued calmly. "This is the first time I'm hearing it-from her own lips." Carrie's expression went blank, as if the words had knocked the breath out of her.

She seemed lost for what to say. Her tears came harder, faster-and then, without warning- She turned sharply and hurled herself off the cliff. "Carrie!" All four of them lunged simultaneously, their hands grasping her wrist just in time. They pulled her back from the brink, and she collapsed into their arms, shaking with sobs that wracked her whole body. "It's okay now. You're safe," Christian whispered softly, holding her close. His voice was so gentle it barely sounded real. "We're all here for you." The others patted her back reassuringly. "Don't be afraid.

No one's going to let anything happen to you." Carrie buried her face in Christian's chest, still trembling with tears-but then suddenly, she began to struggle again. "No-let me go! Let me die! Blair... she doesn't want me alive...!" She lunged toward the cliff's edge once more, and the four brothers hurried to restrain her again. "Enough!" Zayden spun around, glaring at me with pure venom. "Look at what you've done to her!" Orion slid an arm around Carrie's shaking shoulders, his voice calm and soothing. "Don't worry.

As long as we're here, no one can push you away." I remained rooted in place, observing the chaotic scene with a cold smile tugging at the corner of my mouth. I knew Carrie all too well. This was her favorite stunt-threatening to end it all just to draw out sympathy. And every single time, they fell right into her trap. "Beta," Lysander said sharply, his tone icy, "tie Blair over the cliff so she can reflect on what she's done. If she wants proof, let her think hard about where she went wrong." As the others turned away, Carrie shot me a victorious smile.

That look in her eyes said everything: You'll never beat me, Blair. The pack warriors advanced, roughly binding me with coarse rope soaked in wolfsbane. They dangled me over the cliff's edge like some kind of warning, a spectacle of punishment. The rope bit harshly into my wrists, but I didn't flinch. As Christian walked away, he paused for a brief moment, glancing back at me. Our eyes locked-calm, steady. For a fleeting second, I thought I saw something flicker in his gaze. But then Carrie "fainted" in his arms. Panic overtook him instantly.

He scooped her up and hurried off without a backward glance. And just like that-I was left utterly alone. The wind howled louder, whipping around me as the rope swung with each gust, grinding deeper into my bloodied wrists. My phone buzzed inside my pocket, but I was tied too tightly to reach it. So I began to move. Slowly, carefully, I twisted my wrists against the rope, grinding it bit by bit, trying to loosen the knots. Blood trickled down my arms, dripping from the rope's rough fibers. Yet, I felt nothing-not pain, not fear-only cold determination. Finally, the rope slackened enough.

I twisted my body and lunged, grabbing hold of a jagged rock at the cliff's edge. Inch by painstaking inch, I pulled myself up. When I finally crawled over to safety, my hands were a mangled mess of cuts and blood. Trembling, I fumbled for my phone. One new message awaited me. [Ms. Swan, the transfer of your private island has been finalized. You may move in at any time.] I stared at the screen for a long moment, then glanced at the rope still dangling over the abyss. A bitter laugh escaped me. If I was going to vanish from their lives, I might as well let them believe I was dead.

I would never outmatch Carrie. But she had forgotten one crucial truth- The living could never truly compete with the dead. With that thought burning inside me, I slipped off my coat and hung it on a nearby branch, letting it flap in the wind like a ghost's last trace before disappearing into the void below. "Goodbye." The whisper wasn't for any of them. It was for the girl I once was-the one who had loved them all with every ounce of her heart. I flagged down a taxi, slid inside, and didn't look back. This time, I was saving all my love-for myself.
