Chapter 681 Planning for ceremonies
The second day with witches passed quickly.
Other than talking with Evanora and Axel about portal use, Talia and Damon strolled through the area, and Damon got to see the Silver Flame fountain in person.

Damon observed the statue that depicted a female and a wolf standing next to each other while reaching up to the skies. The silvery flame danced where the female’s hand and wolf’s paw connected.

Damon was familiar with the scene because Talia shared her memories with him, and he thought how it was strange since this was obviously his first time here, yet he had a feeling of familiarity, like a déjà vu. It was from the time when he didn’t feel the bond, and he left her behind. She came here, desperate to find a cure for his condition, and he just left.

“What’s going on?” Talia asked Damon when she noticed that his mood was off.

His smile didn’t reach his eyes which were full of sadness. The memory Talia shared with him about this place was with Yasmin and Axel having their ceremony as mates, and Damon had so many regrets about it.

“You’ve been through so much because of me, without me,” he said.

Talia hugged him and buried her face into his chest. She loved that his arms moved around her naturally, but… “You need to stop doing this to yourself, Damon.”
