Arria POV

A few days later.

We had been awake for a long time. Still, no words came.

I refused to let go of him, and he just pulled me closer.

“I don’t want it to be true,” I said eventually.

“I know.”

“But you are usually right.”

He didn’t answer.

“I am afraid,” I forced the words out. “Of being different again. Of being pushed into something I don’t want.”

“Am I different for you because I am the king?”

I considered my answer.

“Yes… in a way,” I said. “You have duties. You can slip

    Arria POV A few days later. We had been awake for a long time. Still, no words came. I refused to let go of him, and he just pulled me closer. “I don’t want it to be true,” I said eventually. “I know.” “But you are usually right.” He didn’t answer. “I am afraid,” I forced the words out. “Of being different again. Of being pushed into something I don’t want.” “Am I different for you because I am the king?” I considered my answer. “Yes… in a way,” I said. “You have duties. You can slip away any minute.” He pulled back just enough to look at me. “I am not going anywhere, Arria.” A beat. “I am right here.” I smiled. Not quite sadly. “You’re leaving in four days.” He shook his head. “Not because I am the king.” A pause. “To protect him.” “You think there is a difference,” I said quietly. “There isn’t.” A breath. “This is your legacy. What you were shaped for. My hand hovered near his face. The fear that one day… he would simply be gone made me hesitate. I almost

    Fenrir POV What is this? Alaric’s voice cut in the moment I sat behind my desk. He had been quiet the whole morning. Watching. Waiting. Just like me. I glanced again at her. She was fully focused on the book in her hands. But that wasn’t it. She wasn't sitting on the edge of the sofa ready to leave. She was settled—legs folded beneath her, shoulders draped in the blanket I put on her. The change was subtle. But there. Her trying.I replied and opened the first report on my desk. Time moved quickly after that—dates, numbers, names—checked within minutes. Necessary transactions—signed. Then the next. Clear. Efficient. Faster with her in the room. I had told her that. Now it was even better. I glanced at her. Again. Then out the window. And closed the last report. I leaned back slightly, letting my gaze settle on her again. “You’re done?” her gaze snapped to me. Aware.I nodded. “You?” She looked at the book then back at me. “Almost.” “Finish it. I’ll prepare

    I woke up to pain. Not the sharp kind that steals your breath, but something heavier, more persistent—like a weight pressing down from the inside. It settled into every movement, every breath, making even stillness feel like effort. So I stayed where I was, eyes closed, letting the sensation anch
