CALEB POV
My mate link snapped like a broken wire.
The pain hit me so hard I fell to my knees, holding my chest where it felt like someone had ripped out my heart. Through the magical chaos around us, I could see Lily drifting in that dimensional energy, but when she looked at me, there was nothing in her eyes. No love, no recognition, no record of us together.
She looked at me like I was a total stranger.
"Lily!" I shouted, reaching toward her even though Viktor's claws had left me bleeding. "It's me, Caleb! Your mate!"
But she tilted her head like she was trying to remember a word in a foreign language. The Triple Moon Mark on her wrist flickered slightly, almost completely faded.
"I don't... who are you?" she asked, her voice sounding hollow and confused.
