StartNovelChapter 703 Ashen Pact’s Shadow
Marie and Sophia slipped away in a hurry.
As they moved, Marie asked, “You're sure Tessa’s not here, right?”
Sophia nodded. “Relax. | checked every inch.”
Dan’s men thought they had her under control.

What they didn’t know was that in the dead of night, Sophia had already searched the castle inside and out.
Finding no sign of Tessa, Marie wasted no more time. She ran.
Still, where was Tessa?
Her head throbbed at the thought.
Dan's fortress was chaos.
No one had the presence of mind to watch Marie.
Meanwhile, far away on Yero Island, Tessa woke to find Victor gone.
He was Abraham's right hand, after all. Even on the island, men clooking for him daily.
Rubbing her eyes, Tessa stepped out of the room and spotted several packages lying on the table.
Beside them sat a fake baby doll wearing a diaper.
The bags-baby clothes.
Seriously?
These people...
Lewis might joke around constantly, but when he fought, he was like a demon.
And Silas-ever stern, always at Victor's side.
She could hardly picture the two of them together dressing a doll, of all things.

Chapter 703 Ashen Pact’s Shadow
Especially when she noticed one side of the diaper was torn open in a long gash.
If this had been a real baby, the poor thing would have been crushed.
Victor walked in to find Tessa staring blankly at the doll.
From where he stood, her profile softened as she gazed at it, her eyes full of tenderness.
He stepped forward and pulled her into his arms.

Startled, she let out a small yelp. Realizing it was him, she pressed a hand against her chest.
“Do you have to walk without a sound?”
She was so small.
Wrapped in Victor's arms, she seemed swallowed by his shadow.
“Do you like children that much?” he asked.

“But you can’t have one now.”
What?
Who said she liked children? She still felt like she hadn't even grown up herself.
“Then tell me, why not now?” she shot back, indignant.
The moment the words left her mouth, her mind went blank. My God, what am | saying? That's not even what |
meant.
“We have to go to the Ashen Pact,” Victor said.
Her eyes widened. “Really?”
The instant she heard it, she spun to face him, studying his expression for any hint of a lie.
He nodded. “Yes.”
“Why so suddenly?”
When she asked, his gaze on her grew heavy with worry.
Catching it, her heart skipped. “Did something happen to my mom?”

Her voice trembled, her whole being tense with fear.
Victor's brows furrowed.
“Tell me,” she demanded, panicked now. “Something happened to her, didn’t it?”
Her hands were already cold when he clasped them.

“Then let’s go—right now.”
At the news of her mother, Tessa couldn't bear another moment on the island. She had to reach
the Ashen Pact.
So fate shifted once again, driving Tessa back to Ashen Pact—the very place she had despised from the start.
Elsewhere-
Marie, who should have already fled, stopped near the gates and began to climb the wall.
“What are you doing? We need to leave,” Sophia hissed.
No one had noticed them yet. It was the perfect chance to slip away.
As far as Sophia was concerned, vengeance on Dan could wait. Survival cfirst.
“Not yet,” Marie said. “I want to see which good soul finally decided to take Dan down.”
This was Noctarth, after all.
Ashen Pact’s influence here ran deep, its power woven into every corner.
And still, someone dared to provoke Dan like this. Marie's curiosity burned.
