What the Heart Survived

last update آخر تحديث: 2025-12-29 19:59:25

The dorm room was quiet in a way that felt intentional, like it was carefully constructed to keep the world out.

Lily had drawn the curtains halfway, just enough to let soft afternoon light spill in without exposing them to the bustling campus outside.

The room smelled faintly of chamomile and honey, the steam from Maya’s mug curling lazily into the air like a promise of calm.

Chloe sat curled up on the edge of Lily’s bed, her knees pulled to her chest, her hoodie still wrapped tightly around her like armor.

Her sunglasses were gone now, abandoned somewhere near the door, but her eyes were red and swollen, her lashes clumped from tears she hadn’t been able to stop earlier.

Maya knelt in front of her, holding the mug carefully with both hands.

“Slow sips,” Maya said gently. “It’s hot.”

Chloe nodded, her fingers trembling as she accepted it.

“Thank you.”

Her voice was small.

Lily watched from the desk chair, her arms folded tightly across her chest, not out of cold, but restraint.

  • Revenge For My Alpha: Sequel of Fated To The Alpha Twins    Sighted Snake

    The open ground venue for the Moon Festival stretched wide beneath the full moon, alive with color and movement from crowds of studentsAndrea stood near the edge of the festival, half-hidden behind a row of glowing lanterns, her eyes scanning the crowd with sharp intensity. Music came from the center of the grounds, laughter spilling into the night, but she wasn’t here to celebrate. Her body was tense, every nerve alert, her instincts screaming that something was wrong."Lena wouldn’t miss this, not tonight" Andrea thought grimly.She adjusted the strap of her small bag on her shoulder and took a slow step forward, moving through clusters of dancing students and couples leaning close under the moonlight. The scent of wolves with their mates hung heavy in the air, exciting and intoxicating, but to Andrea it felt suffocating.She turned in a slow circle, her eyes darting from face to face trying to find Lena or Lily at least.“Of course,” she muttered to herself. “Where would you be

  • Revenge For My Alpha: Sequel of Fated To The Alpha Twins    Moon Festival Night

    The Moon Festival arrived like a held breath finally released.From the moment the sun dipped below the horizon, Moonshine College transformed. Strings of silver lights were draped between ancient oak trees, glowing softly like captured starlight. Lanterns shaped like crescent moons floated gently above the open grounds, swaying with the breeze. Music drifted through the air, mixing with laughter, excitement, and the hum of supernatural energy that always accompanied a full moon.Everyone was happy and excited except Lily.She stood in front of the full-length mirror in her dorm room, staring at her reflection without truly seeing it. Her dress shimmered softly, pale blue fabric clinging to her curves before flowing down in delicate folds. It was elegant without being flashy. Maya had insisted it was perfect Moon Festival dress and Lexa had nodded approvingly with an infuriatingly smug smile.Yet Lily’s chest felt tight.Her fingers curled slightly at her sides as she exhaled slowly

  • Revenge For My Alpha: Sequel of Fated To The Alpha Twins    Anticipation

    The late afternoon sun washed Moonshine College in soft gold, casting long shadows across the stone pathways and manicured lawns. Paper lanterns swayed gently overhead, their pale silk skins catching the light as students hurried back and forth with boxes, ribbons, and bundles of glowing wires. Laughter echoed everywhere and the atmosphere was that of excitement.Lily walked beside Maya and Lexa, her arms folded loosely as she listened to Lexa talk.“And this,” Lily said, gesturing dramatically toward the central quad, “is where everyone pretends they’re calm during the Moon Festival while secretly hoping they don’t embarrass themselves in front of their mates.”Maya laughed. “Accurate.”Lexa smiled.“You make it sound like a survival exercise.”“It is, emotionally” Lily replied seriously, then broke into a grin despite the tension coiling in her chest.They moved along the path that curved around the library, the massive stone building glowing warmly in the sun. Banners had alread

  • Revenge For My Alpha: Sequel of Fated To The Alpha Twins    Before the Moon Festival

    The cafeteria buzzed with noise with voices overlapping, chairs scraping, cutlery clinking against trays but at the far corner near the tall glass windows, Lena sat as if the chaos belonged to another world entirely.She looked relaxed, too relaxed.Her legs were crossed elegantly, one manicured finger tracing slow, idle circles on the table as she watched students walk past with open amusement. She felt like she was some kind of God watching as her subjects moved around without having the slightest idea what she has planned for them.Laughter floated through the air, excitement thickening as everyone talked about the Moon Festival scheduled for tomorrow night. Lanterns were already being placed outside, banners were practically on every wall on campus, happiness was everywhere and Lena hated it.Across from her, Ethan leaned back in his chair, one arm draped casually over the backrest, his eyes sharp and calculating. He watched her closely as if he was anticipating some kind of de

  • Revenge For My Alpha: Sequel of Fated To The Alpha Twins    Back From Travels

    The prison gates slid shut behind them with a heavy, echoing clang that seemed to linger long after the sound faded.Lily flinched despite herself.The late afternoon sun was lower now, casting long shadows across the parking lot, but the warmth of the light did nothing to ease the chill that had settled deep in her bones. She stood still for a moment, breathing in the open air like she had been underwater and had finally surfaced.Lucas was the first to speak.“Okay,” he said tightly, unlocking the car with a sharp click. “We’re leaving, now.”No one argued.They climbed into the car in near silence. Lily slid into the back seat between Maya and Liam, her hands folded in her lap, fingers laced so tightly her knuckles ached. Graham took the front passenger seat, his jaw clenched, one arm braced against the door as if holding himself back from turning around and marching straight back inside.The engine started and the car rolled forward.Only when the prison disappeared from the rea

  • Revenge For My Alpha: Sequel of Fated To The Alpha Twins    Shadows of the Past

    The moment Alex sat down on the opposite side of the reinforced glass, the air in the visitation room seemed to tighten.Lily felt it immediately, like an invisible hand closing around her chest.The guards stepped back into their positions, arms crossed, eyes watchful but uninterested. To them, this was just another normal visit, but to Lily, this was the past walking back into her life with a calm expression and a knowing smirk.Alex leaned back in his chair slowly, deliberately, as if he had all the time in the world. His prison uniform hung loosely on him, but there was nothing weak about his posture. His eyes, sharp, dark, and calculating, never left Lily’s face.“Well,” he said at last, his voice smooth and unhurried, “this is… unexpected.”Lily didn’t answer right away.Lucas stood close to her left, his arms folded, jaw tight. Liam was on her other side, shoulders squared, eyes cold and assessing. Graham lingered just behind, his presence solid and imposing, while Maya stay
