CHAPTER 18

Lyra’s POV

The alarms eventually stopped. The frantic movement slowed. Doctors left Eli’s room one by one, their urgent steps replaced by quiet murmurs and exhausted sighs. Machines inside the ICU returned to their steady rhythm.

I stood outside the glass wall, watching my son breathe with the help of machines. Tubes ran from his small arms. A monitor blinked above his head. His chest rose slowly, mechanically.

Too still.

Too quiet.

Dr. Julian Vane stepped out, removing his gloves.

  • The Singing Phoenix's Revenge    Chapter 19

    CHAPTER 19Lyra’s POV “Megan!”My scream tore through the night air as people began shouting below. Nurses ran. Security alarms went off. Someone yelled for an ambulance even though we were already inside the hospital.My hands gripped the balcony railing so tightly my fingers hurt. She wasn’t moving. Oh God. She wasn’t moving. Behind me, the voice repeated calmly, “You shouldn’t have pushed her.”I spun around.Cassian stood a few feet away, expression sharp, eyes searching my face. For a split second, confusion swallowed everything.“Pushed?” My voice came out broken. “What are you talking about?” He stared at me, then walked quickly to the railing and looked down. His jaw tightened. “What the hell happened?”“She… she fell,” I stammered. “She was talking and then she just…”Security burst onto the balcony. “What happened here?”“She slipped!” Ava shouted, rushing forward. “She slipped!”Guards pushed past us, calling into radios. “Female down on the east side!

    CHAPTER 18Lyra’s POV The alarms eventually stopped. The frantic movement slowed. Doctors left Eli’s room one by one, their urgent steps replaced by quiet murmurs and exhausted sighs. Machines inside the ICU returned to their steady rhythm.I stood outside the glass wall, watching my son breathe with the help of machines. Tubes ran from his small arms. A monitor blinked above his head. His chest rose slowly, mechanically.Too still.Too quiet.Dr. Julian Vane stepped out, removing his gloves. His expression hadn’t changed.“His vitals are stabilized,” he said.Stabilized. Not safe. Not recovering.Just… not dying right now.“What happens next?” I asked, swallowing hard as I tried to stabilize my emotion..He glanced at Eli through the glass.“The toxin already caused neurological stress. Some damage may be temporary. Some may not.”My heart clenched.“He’ll wake up, right?”Julian’s tone remained clinical. “If his body tolerates detoxification, yes.”If.The smallest word suddenly fe

    Lyra’s POV “You know him?” I asked quietly.Cassian blinked. Then his usual calm mask returned.“No.”The doctor continued speaking, but I barely heard him.My eyes stayed on Cassian.Why did that name disturb him? And why did that suddenly scare me more than anything else tonight? Something was definitely wrong and even more frustrating was the fact that I wasn’t able to piece anything together.The hallway outside the ICU felt colder than before. Maybe it was the air conditioning. Maybe it was fear. Or maybe it was the realization that no matter how fast I ran, how loud I screamed, or how much money or influence we threw at the situation…Eli was still lying behind those glass doors, fighting something none of us understood.The alarms had finally stopped. Doctors had stabilized him again.And suddenly, revenge didn’t matter. Dorian didn’t matter. Seraphina didn’t matter. Nothing mattered except one thing;I just needed my son to stand up to me and wrap himself in my arms once agai

    Lyra’s POV The tires screeched as I pulled into the hospital entrance, barely waiting for the car to stop before jumping out. A security guard shouted something behind me, but I didn’t care. My legs were already running.The smell of antiseptic hit me as the automatic doors slid open while I rushed in.“Maternity emergency?” a nurse called.“My son!” I shouted. “They brought my son here… Eli… where is he?”. Right now… I was without my mask…. I was just Lyra…. a mother whose only concern was the health of her son.The woman behind the counter tried to calm me. “Ma’am, please…”“No, don’t tell me to calm down. Where is he?” Another nurse rushed past, pushing a stretcher. For a split second, I saw Eli.Small.Still.Oxygen mask over his face. My heart dropped into my stomach.“Eli!” I ran after them.A hand grabbed my arm. “Ma’am, you can’t go beyond this point.”“That’s my son!”Doctors surrounded the stretcher as they rushed him through double doors.Machines. Orders. Quick movements.

    LYRA’S POVAva gasped while my eyes widened as we tried to fold ourselves hoping we weren't seen. She looked a little more then shrugged, turned and walked in the opposite direction.Ava exhaled slowly. “She’s losing control.”“No,” I murmured. “I think she’s tightening it.”Later that afternoon, rehearsal was tense.Dorian avoided eye contact. Seraphina overperformed, every note was sharp with too much effort. Cassian watched from the rear with his expression neutral.During a break, Dorian approached Ava instead of me.“Can we talk?” he asked her.She glanced at me.I nodded.They stepped aside.Cassian appeared at my shoulder almost instantly. “Interesting.”“What is?” I asked.“He didn’t come to you.”“Maybe he doesn’t know how to. He's already struggling with alot.”Cassian studied Dorian across the room. “Or maybe he knows exactly who to ask.”I frowned. “What does that mean?”“Publicists shape narratives,” he said. “Confessions start there.”My stomach dropped.“Are you saying

    Lyra’s POVThe bathroom light buzzed faintly as I locked the door behind me. I leaned both palms against the sink, staring at my reflection. Steam from the running shower slowly fogged the mirror, but not enough to blur the thoughts crowding my head.“Watch your back, Phoenix.”I turned the tap off sharply.“She’s bluffing,” I muttered to the empty room, like saying it out loud was supposed to make it real. Not like it did though.I stepped into the shower and let the water pour over me, hot enough to sting. Still, Seraphina’s voice still found a way to cut through the rush.“You have no idea what’s coming.”“What do you know?” I whispered.The water carried the words away.By the time I dressed and stepped back into the dressing room, the adrenaline from the performance had completely drained, leaving only exhaustion and even more anxiety behind. I reached for my phone, meaning to text Ava, but before I could unlock it, there was a soft knock.I didn’t answer.The door opened anyway.
