Liam stared at her. It was definitely her. The same Mia who had once stood beside him. The same Mia who had disappeared without a trace. But it was also not her. Just like before, she was someone else.
The woman descending from the heavens looked exactly like Mia, but the aura surrounding her was completely unfamiliar. Divine energy rolled off her in terrifying waves, each pulse causing the demonic energy covering the battlefield to hiss and retreat.
Even from this distance, Liam could feel it. She was strong. Far stronger than the Mia he remembered.
Beside him, Alex had stopped breathing. "Mia..."
Liam glanced at her. Alex's face had gone completely pale. Her earlier calm had disappeared, and she looked shaken. "What the hell is she doing here? Why is she here? Why didn't she come back?"
Liam silently held her hand. "Wait. We need to wait."
He turned his attention back to the sky.
The arrival of the divine forces had completely changed the battlefield.
