Ranya stood up and walked over to the necklace and picked it up. She turned to face him as she put it back on. Ï have no choice but to face it", she said sadly.

Ranya looked at him sadly. "Do not loose hope yet", she reassured. "Veela's have their ways... they always make the call a month early. We still have time".
