A Packless Luna CHAPTER 56
CHAPTER 56Nyra’s POVThe warning does not come with a scream or a sudden crash it comes as a quiet shift in the air that makes my skin tighten before my mind understands whyI am already moving before I realize itThe pressure in my chest sharpens and drops at the same time like something has locked onto me from far away and pulled a thread that is tied too deep to cut“Kael,” I sayHe is already watching me“What is it”“It’s not waiting anymore,” I answerThe words barely leave my mouth before the entire fortress seems to reactA low vibration rolls through the floor not strong enough to knock anything down but deep enough to be felt in bone not surfaceThe torches flickerOnceTwiceThen steadyToo steadyLike something else has taken control of the rhythmKael’s posture shifts instantly from calm to command his presence filling the room like a wall rising between me and everything else“Stay here,” he saysI shake my head immediately“No”“Nyra”“It’s coming for me you already kn

CHAPTER 55Nyra’s POVSleep does not come and when it finally does it feels like something else is dreaming through meI lie on the bed with my eyes open, staring at the ceiling that looks too calm for the chaos sitting under my skin, and I can still feel that place beneath the fortress like a second heartbeat that is not mine but refuses to stay quietIt is not loudIt does not forceIt waitsThat is what makes it dangerousA soft knock comes at the door and before I answer it opens anywayKaelOf courseHe steps inside like he has been here a hundred times, like this space already belongs to him in some way, and for a second I don’t hate that“You didn’t sleep,” he saysI turn my head slightly“You keep asking questions you already know the answer to”A small breath leaves him that almost sounds like a laugh but not quite“Humor means you’re still holding on,” he replies“I never said I was letting go,” I sayHe moves closer, stopping just enough distance away that I can still feel

CHAPTER 54Nyra’s POVThe silence after it disappears feels wrong, like the world is pretending nothing happened while something deep beneath it is still awake and listeningI remain where I am for a second longer than I should, staring at the sealed ground, my chest rising and falling too fast, my body still braced for something that is no longer in front of me but not truly goneIt is quietToo quietThe kind of quiet that comes before something breaks again“Nyra”Kael’s voice pulls me back slowlyNot sharplyNot forcefullyCarefullyLike he is not sure what he will find if I turn to himI doAnd the look in his eyes hits me harder than anything that just happenedReliefAnd something elseSomething heavier“You’re still here,” he saysI almost laugh“Where else would I be”But the words don’t come out like a jokeThey come out tiredBecause I know what he meansHe is not asking about my bodyHe is asking about meThe part of me that might not have come back the same“I’m here,” I

CHAPTER 53Nyra’s POVThe moment the ground opens, I know I have made a mistake that no amount of strength can fixThe crack does not stop at the circleIt spreadsDeepWideLike something beneath the world is finally pushing its way out after being buried for too longThe air turns heavy, thick with something that feels wrong in a way I cannot explain, like breathing it is a risk I am already takingKael does not move away from meHe stands firm, his body slightly in front of mine, his presence solid, unshaken, even as the ground beneath us begins to give way“Stay behind me,” he saysHis voice is calmToo calmThat kind of calm only comes when something is about to go very wrong“It’s not coming for you,” I say quietlyThe words slip out before I can stop themBecause I feel itThat pullThat connectionStronger than beforeIt is not reaching for himIt is reaching for meKael glances back at me sharply“That doesn’t make it better,” he repliesThe ground splits widerStone breaks a

CHAPTER 52.. Nyra’s POVThe way Kael looks at me is worse than the darkness I just came from and I hate that it hurtsNot fearNot exactlyBut something closeSomething like he is trying to recognize me and failing just enough for it to matterMy chest tightens as I push myself fully to my feet, my body steadier now but different, everything inside me quieter and louder at the same time, like a storm that has settled on the surface but is still raging underneath“Say something,” I tell himMy voice sounds like mineBut not completelyThere is something beneath it nowSomething heavierKael doesn’t move immediatelyHis eyes stay locked on mine like he is searching for something he lost“Your eyes,” he says finally, his voice lower than usual, careful in a way I have never heard beforeI frown slightly“What about them”“They’re not the same,” he answersA strange chill slides down my spineI don’t need a mirror to know he’s telling the truthI can feel itEverything about me feels… s

CHAPTER 51Nyra’s POVThe darkness does not feel empty and that is the first thing that tells me I made a mistake I cannot undoIt is everywhereNot just around meInside meIt presses against my skin like something breathing, something aware, something that has been waiting for this exact moment longer than I have been aliveFor a second I cannot moveCannot speakCannot even feel my own body the way I shouldThen I hear it againNot distantNot echoingCloseToo closeYou choseMy chest tightens as I force myself to breathe, but the air feels different here, heavier, thicker, like every inhale pulls something into me instead of giving me life“I didn’t choose you,” I sayMy voice sounds wrongLike it does not belong fully to me anymoreA low shift moves through the darkness, like something reacting, something amusedYou stepped forwardThat is choiceThe words wrap around me, calm and certain, and I hate how true they soundBecause I did step forwardNo one forced meNo one pushed m
