Aria's POV
Later that day, Devin, Ryder, Noah, and I assembled in my study. Devin shared new intel he had gotten with us. "Silas isn't waiting any longer."
I stared at the intelligence report spread across the table. Devin tapped the projected calendar. "The full moon is four days away. According to everything we've gathered, that's when he'll perform the final sacrifice."
My fingers curled against the edge of the table. "What about Joshua?"
Devin hesitated. "He is the sacrifice."
The room went silent. For a moment, I couldn't hear anything except the pounding of my heart. Joshua, my brother, would be sacrificed on the night of the full moon.
My throat tightened. The sacrifice was initially meant to take place in three days' time. Silas must have changed it because the secret leaked.
