The house is still mostly empty. With bare walls, uncovered windows, and the faint scent of fresh wood and plaster in the air, but I’ve never loved a place more.Sunlight spills across the light oak floorboards, warming the space like it’s already lived in. There’s no furniture yet, just a few unpac
** Harper’s POV **Back at our apartment on the military base, I start to pack up our few belongings. It feels surreal that we will be back at the academy by evening. Although our academy apartment is so much nicer, I’m still kind of sad to say goodbye to this place. We may not have been here long,

** Knox’s POV **I don’t want to sit in the living room sipping coffee like my identity isn’t disappearing in front of me. I want to go out into the woods. Not far. Just enough that I can’t hear the low hum of voices anymore, just enough that the cool wind can hit my face and I can process all this
** Harper's POV **The evening creeps in, and I can’t settle.I’ve pushed through the day, through the training. I even managed to force some food down, but as the sun sets, my anxiety rises.They should be back by now. We should have heard something. Anything.I’m curled between Dillon and Chase on
