The discovery sparked a renewed urgency within Elara, compelling her to search for the
identities behind the portraits. As she and Damien pieced together the clues from the letters,
a darker narrative began to unfold—one filled with betrayal, secrets, and a connection to the
society they thought they had escaped.
One letter revealed a correspondence between Elara’s father and a figure who had been a
part of the occult society long before the leader they had confronted. The name was familiar,
one that sent a shiver down Elara’s spine: Lady Seraphine.
“I’ve heard that name before,” Elara said, her voice barely above a whisper. “She was
mentioned in the records, as one of the founding members of the society.”
Damien’s brow furrowed. “But if she’s connected to your family… it changes everything.”
Elara felt the weight of her heritage pressing down on her. “What if she played a role in the
curse? What if she was the one who betrayed the woman my father loved?”
“Then we need to find out what happened to her,” Damien said, determination igniting in his
eyes. “If we can understand her actions, we might unravel the truth behind your family’s
legacy.”
