"Who was she?"

Tatiana stood in the doorway, her hand on the frame, blocking the hall. Kain had already turned to leave. He stopped but did not turn back.

"Tell me what happened to her."

He said nothing.

"I am tired of being kept in the dark while everyone around me seems to know something about my life that I don't."

Kain looked over his shoulder. "There are things better left buried."

"My family is buried." Tatiana's voice was steady. "Apparently their secrets a

  • A Prey For My Enemy   Chosen one

    “No,” I whispered, the word scraping like broken glass against my throat. “No, you’re lying.”I shook my head violently, my back scraping the concrete wall as I looked at the man bathed in the stark, bleeding glow of the emergency lights. “You aren't him. Mikhail is dead. My father wouldn't do that. Why would Viktor ever ask Kain to take me away? Why me?”The man didn't flinch at my denial. He kept his distance, his hands sliding casually into the deep pockets of his coat, entirely detached from my spiraling panic.“The summer before I vanished, you fell from the old stone wall near the stables,” he said, his voice level, flat, and chillingly precise. “You broke your left wrist. Father was furious. He threatened to shoot the stable master. You cried into your pillow for three days, not because of the pain, but because you thought it was your fault. I brought you the wooden wolf piece from the study to make you stop crying. We hid it in the loose floorboard under your van

  • A Prey For My Enemy   Stranger’s warmth

    The shadow lengthened as the man moved into the perimeter of the swinging bulb.My fingers pressed hard into the cold concrete of the wall behind me, the rough edges of the height markings digging into my palm. I braced myself for the impossible. I braced myself to look upon the face of the brother I had mourned for twenty years. But as he halted just inches from the boundary of the light, he tilted his head, the high collar of his dark coat and the jagged angle of the shadows deliberately obscuring his features. All I could see was the stark, sharp line of a weathered jaw and eyes that caught the dim light like fractured glass.He didn't move. He didn't rush toward me. He just watched me breathe, completely unbothered by the frantic muffled thuds of Kain and Julian hammering against the reinforced steel door behind us."Where is Mikhail?" My voice tore from my throat, brittle and demanding, echoing off the cramped walls. "Tell me where he is!"The man did not answer

  • A Prey For My Enemy   Trapped with a stranger

    The sound of that single, whispered name hung in the damp night air, cutting through the roar of the rain and the racing of my own pulse. Tati. It was a ghost stepping out of the dark, a phantom echo from a childhood I had spent a lifetime trying to piece together. Every instinct I possessed screamed that it was him. It was Mikhail’s voice, unchanged, frozen in the amber of the night he vanished. But cold logic slammed against my chest right behind the shock. It couldn't be. Mikhail was gone. I refused to believe a miracle, and I refused to accept a lie without absolute proof.Before Julian could reach for my arm, before the headlights of Kain’s approaching convoy could breach the tree line, I lunged forward. I threw my weight against the heavy, rusted metal intake doors of the clinic entrance. They groaned, the ancient chains securing them snapping with a sharp crack, and I forced my way through the gap into the suffocating darkness inside.The building smelled of stagnant

  • A Prey For My Enemy   Childhood Foundation

    “I know who the fourth child is.”The words left my lips like an absolute sentence, hanging in the crimson-lit archive room. Nobody breathed. The rhythmic wail of the alarms above felt miles away as the silence wrapped around us, heavy and suffocating. I didn't say the name immediately. I couldn't. I had to force myself to confront the terrifying, jagged memory locking into place behind my eyes, shattering the remaining pillars of my past.The scar on the child’s palm in the surveillance recording was a precise, jagged line cutting directly through the natural creases of the skin. It was an unmistakable mark. A mark I had looked at hundreds of times before. I turned my head slowly, my gaze dropping from the dead screen to fix entirely on Julian.I looked at his right hand.As soon as my eyes drifted downward, Julian’s fingers curled, and his hand slipped instinctively into the deep pocket of his coat.That single, defensive movement confirmed everything. The remaining doubt vanished, repla

  • A Prey For My Enemy   Mikhail Memories

    Kain was shouting orders, mechanics were prepping the armored SUVs, and guards were packing heavy gear.“We’re moving,” Kain told me, his hand on my shoulder, trying to steer me toward the central courtyard. “The estate isn't secure. We leave for the secondary compound in five minutes.”I looked at him, but I wasn't listening. My mind was racing ahead, mapping out the trajectory of the night.If I let Kain put me in that car, he would take me exactly where he wanted me to go. If he took me to the clinic, he would curate the wreckage. He would dictate what I saw, what I learned, and what remained buried. And if Julian got there first, he would spin his own version of the truth, leaving me trapped between two men who traded in lies.I didn't want their versions anymore. I needed my own.As Kain turned his back to consult with a tactical commander, my eyes darted to the command table near the door. A ring of heavy master keys lay beside a radio.I stepped forward, my movements silent and

  • A Prey For My Enemy   Changed Plans

    I stared at him, searching his face, mapping the sudden tension in his shoulders against everything I knew about my family's hidden history. The pieces of the past swirled in my mind until one specific, abandoned location locked into place.“The clinic,” I breathed, watching him intently. “It opens the old clinic.”Kain didn't say a word. He didn't deny it. He didn't blink.His silence was the loudest confirmation he could have given.“Tell me the truth, Kain!” I demanded, my voice echoing off the shattered glass of the bedroom. “What is at the old clinic? What did my father hide there?”Kain let out a long, slow breath, his shoulders dropping a fraction of an inch. The wall of secrecy was finally cracking.“It was where your family used to take you when you were a child,” he said, his voice flat, stripped of emotion. “When you were sick. But it wasn't just a medical facility, Tatiana.”I braced myself. “What else was it?”“There was a private section built beneath the foundation,” Ka

    -Tatiana-The car finally rolled to a stop. Gravel popped under the tires, and my stomach twisted because it sounded too much like something breaking. I pressed back into the seat anyway, like that would change anything. Julian’s name hit me like a lifeline. My secret boyfriend who's also my fami

    -Tatiana-I slapped my hands against the cool window and watched the house shrink behind us. Every light in the dining room still blazed. No one left to turn them off. No one left to do anything.“Why them and not me?” I asked again. “I promise you I am of no use to you alive.” Why do I have to be

    -TATIANA- Tatiana was destroying the bedroom. Drawers hung open, clothes scattered across the floor like she was searching for something that might magically appear if she just kept tearing through everything. The broken lamp base she tried to cave my skull in with earlier skidded across the hardw

    -TATIANA-I watched my family die between bites of rosemary lamb, and the worst part was how ordinary it felt.Dad had just raised his glass, to give a toast to loyalty, bloodlines, keeping the family strong when the first shot rang through the dining room.Next, a wet slap of blood hit the tableclo
