The sound had stopped. I could still feel the three knocks echoing in the room.

The stone floor seemed to be holding them. My bones felt like they were holding them too.

I stood beside the broken table, one hand on the wood every muscle tense and ready to snap. Dust swirled through the torchlight in spirals. The room felt old when I woke up.

Now it felt alive.

    SeleneThe sound had stopped. I could still feel the three knocks echoing in the room.The stone floor seemed to be holding them. My bones felt like they were holding them too.I stood beside the broken table, one hand on the wood every muscle tense and ready to snap. Dust swirled through the torchlight in spirals. The room felt old when I woke up.Now it felt alive.Cassian faced the stairwell door below his shoulders still his head tilted slightly like he was listening to something only he could hear. Usually he looked calm and in control.Now I saw a crack in his calm.His jaw twitched slightly. His eyes narrowed, the skin around them tightening up.Fear.It sent a chill down my spine. That was even colder than the fear that had gripped me from the knocks.Before I could speak everything changed.Footsteps.Not imagined. Not guessed.I could hear them even when they were behind a wall or underground or really far away.Four sets.You can hear the leather creaking every time someone

  • Her Last Death    Chapter 17: He Holds Me Back Not Roughly. Firmly

    SeleneI stopped moving my mouth just inches from Cassian's neck.That was the worst part of it all.It was not the hunger that was eating away at me.It was not the way my body felt like it was on fire.It was not the smell of Cassian that was making me crazy.My body just moved on its own. I did something without thinking.My whole body started shaking hard.At first I thought it was just fear. Then I felt my nails digging into my hands and I realized what was really happening.This was me trying to control myself.It was taking all my energy not to lash out at Cassian every second.Cassian was standing in front of me talking to me like we were just talking about nothing important.He was not scared of me all.His eyes looked at my mouth. Then they looked back at my eyes.His face changed when he saw something that caught his attention.I leaned in closer to him a little.The sound of his heart beating was really loud in my ears.I could feel the heat from his body. It was making me

  • Her Last Death    Chapter 16: First Loss of Control

    SeleneEverything stopped when I threw myself at Cassian. It was as if the entire world had come to a standstill, I was unable to move or breathe. I was suspended in mid-air, just a few inches away from Cassian's throat. I could feel the heat radiating from his body, and my breath moved across his skin, sending shivers down my spine. Time itself seemed to have lost all meaning, leaving only the two of us locked in this eternal moment, with the world around us melting away into nothingness.Everything was completely silent. The kind of silence that does not calm you down instead it warns you. The room was like an angle full of pressure. It was like reality itself was holding its breath to see what I would do next.I should have taken a step back but I did not.Cassian did not move either.He just stood there like he had chosen not to move. It was not because he was scared or shocked. It was like he was in control. His eyes did not look away from me.They just kept looking at me, measur

  • Her Last Death    Chapter 15: Awakening Hunger

    SeleneIt was silent now, but the silence did not come quietly.It came after the storm had passed. It felt like the world had stopped moving because it was ashamed of what had happened.I lay beneath Cassian, my back still throbbing from the stone that had borne the brunt of our recent struggle. My arms, once tense with resistance, now calm and unresponsive, as if they had been removed from my body. The fight had been drained from them, leaving them feeling foreign and useless, like they no longer belonged to me.The dagger had vanished. I heard the sound of it hitting the stone floor before I actually saw where it was. It spun around slowly, as if it was checking out its surroundings, before coming to a stop in the dark.No one picked it up.Not Cassian, Not me.The air felt strange like it was waiting for something to happen.It was waiting for me to change.I inhaled deeply, but the air trapped in my throat, feeling almost jagged as it went down.I tried again, but something still

    CassianHer eyes opened wide.They did not open slowly like someone waking up from sleep. They just snapped open in the room that was lit by candles.I stopped moving when I saw her eyes open. I was standing beside the stone table where she was lying.For a second, I thought I had failed to save her. I thought the life I had brought back to her body had not worked.She did not feel warm like she did before. There was no anger or pain in her.She just felt cold and hard like glass.Her eyes looked really black then they got smaller and sharper. She did not blink all. She just stared at the ceiling like she saw something moving above her that no one else could see.I said her name, "Selene."She did not answer.Then she took a deep breath in.The sound of her breathing was really loud in the room.Then she stopped breathing.There was no breath.The silence after that was really scary.It made the room feel like a monster.She slowly turned her head to look at me.It was too smooth like

  • Her Last Death    Chapter 13: The Turning Point

    CassianThe room was holding its breath with me.The stone pillars were leaning around us, some of them broken, with saints carved on them but their throats cut off. The marble floor was dirty with dust and blood. It was really quiet like the noise from the battle had been sucked out and it felt like the ruined hall was watching us to see what would happen next.Selene was lying on the ground where she had fallen.There was a lot of blood under her spreading out like a halo, seeping into the cracks in the stone. Her chest was already moving, just a little. When I put two fingers on her throat I could feel her pulse but it was weak.It was like a candle in the wind.One beat.Nothing.Then another.I had seen a lot of people die. Men begging for mercy. Women cursing. Kids who were too shocked to understand what was happening. Death is pretty efficient when you see it a lot. It's predictable like a door that only opens one way.Kneeling next to her, I found myself listening for each bea
