The woods were quiet again, but my head wasn’t. I sat there in the shadows, frozen in the spot where Luca had walked away, his words still echoing like stones dropped into a still lake.

“Maybe it's time I stopped!”

He was right.

I had pushed him, again and again, with my silence, with my coldness. It wasn't because I stopped needing him—I still needed him—but because I didn’t know how to carry the weight of what I’d seen, of what I felt, and still expect him to hold me up. I was ashamed of being so broken, of being afraid.

However, the moment he left just now, when he turned away like he couldn’t take another step near me… a different kind of fear gripped me. Not the kind Alexa’s bloodshed left in my dreams. This one felt more real, it felt like it was connected directly to my heart ‘cause why was it aching so much?

The fear of losing him.

My legs moved before I told them to. I rose to my feet, stumbled forward into the trees, breath catching in my throat as I followed the echo of his

    Luca stepped in front of instinctively, like he always did. Despite myself and the situation we were in, the corner of my lips twitched into a smile.He's the perfect man, don't you think?We waited, and waited, but there was no other sound. So we moved.We walked quieter after that. Each step softened against the underbrush. The sunlight barely reached through the canopy now, filtering down in green-gold fragments. Birds didn’t sing. Wind didn’t stir. Even the fireflies from the night before had vanished.It was peaceful, until it wasn't.All of a sudden, the trees leaned in.I know how it sounds—ridiculous, maybe even mad—but I swear on every life that I've lost, the trees really shifted. Just slightly, like they recognized me and were bowing in acknowledgement.I stopped walking.Luca turned back instantly, brows furrowed. “What is it?”“I don’t know…” I murmured, stepping toward the nearest trunk—a massive oak, its bark scarred by age and time. I reached out, fingers trembling, an

    The rest of the day was uneventful, but definitely not boring. Not with Luca. Soon, night fell, and morning came. Today was the day we began our mission to return to the hidden village—what was left of it rather. Hopefully, we'll find out way without Alexa finding us and plunging my heart right out of my chest.She wouldn't really do that, would she?The sun hadn’t risen yet, but the pale gray light of dawn crept over the treetops like a whispered promise. I laid there for a while, listening to Luca breathe beside me. His arm was still wrapped around my waist, his chest warm against my back. That night lingered in my body like smoke. I told you I'd never forget.However, the peace of it didn’t dull the sharp edge of reality, especially after we nearly walked into our doom the day before. It only made me more certain.I turned gently, trying not to wake him, but of course I failed.“You’re already thinking. It's barely even morning,” he murmured, voice still thick with sleep, eyes bare

    He exhaled slowly. “I was wondering when you’d ask that.”I sat up, wrapping the nearest clothing around my chest as I looked out into the clearing. The world looked brighter than yesterday. Like even the light didn’t know what we’d done in the dark.“I mean it,” I said. “What does this mean? For us? For me?”He propped himself up on one elbow, watching me carefully. “It means... I’m here.”“That’s not an answer.”“It’s the only one I have that doesn’t come with a dozen ifs and maybes.” He sat up fully, wrapping the sheets over his legs. “We’re in the middle of nowhere, on the run, hunted…”“You don’t have to remind me.”“I have to,” he said, gently. “Because you need to know that even with all that... I still choose this.”“Luca…”“I meant everything last night.” His voice lowered. “You’re my everything, Mira. You're the only thing I've got to lose. When I’m with you, Mira... I don’t feel lost.”I looked down, heart pounding against my ribs like a warning. “But I still don’t know wha

    I closed the space between us and kissed him. He didn't see it coming. I felt his body tense up, and his eyes snapped shut.He deepened it with a sigh, one hand sliding around my waist, the other threading into my hair. His touch was fire and balm, not demanding, but aching. Like he’d waited a thousand nights for this.I gasped softly as he pulled me on top of him, his hands running down my back, settling at my hips. My hands settled on his chest, the solidness of it making me shudder.Balancing myself further on the hardness I felt beneath me, I began unbuttoning his shirt. In no time, I was staring at his bare chest under the glow of the moonlight.He was beautiful!His voice pulled me out of that brief moment, and the next minute, I was beneath him, staring into those gorgeous eyes. He was breathless, his tone laced with an authority I didn't know he had. “Undress!" One word! Just one word, and I was pulling everything off my skin with a fervent urgency. I stood before him, bared

    We walked in easy silence for a while, the forest dappled in golden sunlight. The air smelled like moss and promise. There was no destination—not yet—only the shared sense that we were walking forward now. Together.“Your arm okay?” I asked after a bit, glancing at the bandage.“Yeah. Hurts less.”“Good.”He raised a brow at me. “Look at you, caring.”“Don’t get used to it.”“You say that, but you look back to check if I’m keeping up every three minutes.”I rolled my eyes, but I didn’t deny it.He bumped my shoulder lightly. “You’re cute when you’re pretending not to care.”“I’m always cute.”He snorted. “Alright, now that’s a stretch.”I gasped. “I forgave you one time and this is how you repay me?”“You forgave me?” He scowled dramatically. "Oh no, little wolf, I'm the one who forgave you. You literally begged. Forgotten already?” He wasn’t wrong. So I gave him a shove, and he stumbled, dramatically grabbing his side. “I didn't beg. And you forgave me ‘cause you missed me." “Ah…
