MINA

He wants me to become his maid?

I tossed and turned in bed, my hair sprawled messily across the pillow, before finally landing on my back. Staring up at the ceiling, I let out a deep sigh.

I realized it was already dawn as I glanced at the clock on the bedside table. The lantern festival had probably flickered out a few hours earlier. I didn’t know if Rowena had checked the basement yet; she hadn't come to see me in the past two days since she left me there.

Her objective was to kill me, so perhaps she intended to let me rot in that dark space. In a way, that worked to my advantage, I guess.

However, if I were to stay here and work for someone, concealing my identity was still the best course of action.

Unless I moved to a different place entirely.

Somewhere like… Fenra.

I sighed once more and sat up, leaning against the bed frame. Was I really considering this?

Elias still got on my nerves more than anyone in the world.

Yet, despite that, I knew he wasn’t spiteful.

    ELIAS Where is she?Why can’t we fucking find her?The words kept looping in my head like a curse I couldn’t break. I paced the living room for what felt like the hundredth time, my footsteps heavy against the floor. Every report from my men only tightened the knot in my chest. It was like Mina had dissolved into thin air.My mother was standing near the window with her arms crossed. My father sat quietly on the couch, watching me with a knowing look. Before I could say a word, my mom marched up to me and slapped the back of my head.“Ow—what the hell?” I exclaimed, more startled than hurt.“This,” she snapped, pointing a finger at my chest, “is because you refused to see her. This is what happens when you think distance equals love.”I groaned and dragged a hand down my face. “Mom—”“My daughter-in-law has run away,” she continued, voice rising. “Do you have any idea how that makes you look? I will disown you if you don’t fix this.”I let out a long breath, forcing myself not to sna

    MINA I really escaped.I stumbled forward, hands trembling, and only then did it sink in.My power worked.A shaky laugh slipped out of me. The silence of my power still clung to me, but I felt I could control it better now. Every sound around me was muted when I wanted it to be. The animals sensed me, I knew that much. I felt their awareness brushing against mine, but they didn’t react the way they should have. Their movements slowed when I passed. However, they couldn’t quite decide if I was there or not.I was a gap.A pocket where danger lost its edge.I moved carefully. I had always been good at spotting animals and reading the land. That part of me had survived everything. And now, with my power wrapping around me like a cloak, I was able to move through Montrose without becoming prey.However, strength came at a cost.Each step made my vision blur a little more. I had to stop more than once, pressing a hand to my abdomen and breathing through the nausea. It’s okay, I whisper

    ELIASI looked around for a moment, but there was truly not a person here—only traces. Just then, we heard whistling. However, it suddenly stopped. Edison must have sensed we were here. I turned sharply, my vision narrowing. I saw him—just the edge of his silhouette slipping between trees, already preparing to bolt.“Fuck,” I muttered.He ran.However, that was a big mistake. He didn’t get far.Ezra and two of the guards cut him off from the left while I came in hard from behind. Edison didn’t even have the time to curse before he was slammed into the ground. He thrashed, snarling, trying to shift into his wolf, but the chains were already locking him in place.He screamed in fury. I ignored his cries and planted a boot against his spine and forced him flat, pressing him into the dirt until he stopped struggling. My breathing was heavy, but my voice was steady when I spoke.“Where is she?”He laughed.I crouched down, grabbed a fistful of his hair, and yanked his head back to the p

    ELIAS I missed her so fucking much. Even though I knew I should focus on this event, that was the only thought that ran through my mind. Every step I took away from Mina had been taken for her, not from her. I always wanted to be near her. And yet, I watched as the space between us cut her confidence to pieces. At that moment, I realized that I needed to respect her desire for distance. It took every ounce in my body to ignore her all this time. However, the truth was simple. I wasn’t strong enough just yet. The wolfsbane in my system had affected me much more than I would have liked. Any other werewolf would have died within hours. However, I was still alive and kicking. Because of this, I couldn’t even stand the faintest residue of wolfsbane without my vision blurring.How could I let her see me like that?She had already blamed herself once. She stood in front of me with tears in her eyes and called herself a burden. If she saw how weak I was, she would tear herself apart, b

    MINAHe looked at me like I had spoken a language no one else ever bothered to learn. His eyes finally hesitated, just for a second.I guess I could understand him, in a way.No one is born evil. I had learned that early in life, long before I learned how to fight back or how to survive. Some of us are simply more predisposed to darkness. Some of us are thrown into it so young that it becomes the only thing we recognize as home. And some—some are exposed to so much cruelty that it seeps into their bones until it feels natural.“That doesn’t mean we don’t feel,” I said softly, my voice echoing faintly.I watched his face carefully as I spoke, measuring every inch of his reaction. His shoulders stiffened, but he didn’t interrupt me.“Do you still love your mate?” I asked again, quieter this time.He still didn’t answer.Silence stretched between us. I took that silence as permission or maybe as desperation. Either way, I kept talking.“It seems like you’re tender about this,” I continue

    MINAFuck.That was the only word echoing in my head as I stood there, my eyes swollen from crying and the test still warm in my hands.What was I going to do now?I never wanted to hide this from him. I didn’t want to be the kind of person who would self-sacrifice my baby for my own fear. But why now? Why at this time, when everything was already so complicated? I closed my eyes and inhaled shakily.No. Enough.I straightened my spine and wiped my face with the back of my hand. I had to tell him. Uncertainty or not. Fear or not. This wasn’t something I could shoulder alone, and I was done letting misunderstandings go between us until there was nothing left.If he was happy about it, then I would be happy too. We could fix everything else together—slowly. I couldn’t do this without him.I pretended for two weeks that distance was strength and that silence was mercy. However, all it did was make me even more miserable. If there was a life I was willing to live, it would be with Elia
