Anaïs didn’t scream when the door slammed.

She didn’t flinch. She didn’t run.

She just stood there, staring at the man who used to terrify her.

Now? She couldn’t decide what she felt. Numbness, maybe. Or something worse—familiarity.

Cassian didn’t step in immediately.

He waited at the doorframe, watching Anaïs with that unreadable expression. His eyes didn’t blink, and he didn’t breathe until she did.

She barely managed it.

“What the hell is this?” she asked, voice steadier than she expected.

“Your past,” he said. “And maybe your future, if we don’t end this right.”

Twelve hours earlier.

Cassian had left the compound after midnight.

The tension after Anaïs’s outburst—after her demand that he feel something—still echoed in his head.

And the worst part? He did.

He felt everything.

Guilt. Rage. Fear.

He hated the way she saw through him.

He hated even more that she wasn’t wrong.

So he did what he always did—he ran.

Not physically. But emotionally.

Which is why he found himself in that go

    The room was too quiet. Not the peaceful kind of quiet. This one buzzed in Anaïs’s ears like a warning.She sat on the floor of Cassian’s study, knees tucked under her, staring at the shattered glass spread across the marble like a mosaic of everything broken between them. Her hands were trembling, fingers red where the tiny shards had kissed her skin. She hadn’t even noticed the pain until now.Cassian hadn’t said a word since the glass exploded against the wall. He just stood there, back straight, jaw tight, his eyes like obsidian ice.“I’m not afraid of you,” she said, voice low but steady.His eyes flicked toward her, almost like he was trying to decide if that was a challenge or a lie.“You should be,” he said simply.Anaïs swallowed. It wasn’t a threat. That was the worst part. It was a confession.The anger hadn’t come out of nowhere. She had pushed. She had pried. She had asked the one question that clawed at her every night he touched her without looking her in the eyes.“Who

    Cassian had never heard silence like this before.It wasn’t peaceful or calming. It wasn’t the kind that lulled people into rest. No, this silence roared in his ears like an accusation. It was the silence that came after someone had screamed all the truth they could manage and walked away—not because they didn’t care anymore, but because they’d cared too damn much.Anaïs had left the room an hour ago. Or maybe two. Cassian didn’t remember. All he knew was that the door had closed softly behind her, and ever since, he hadn’t moved from the edge of the desk where her necklace still lay—forgotten or maybe left intentionally.He stared at it like it might give him answers. Or catch fire. Either would make more sense than this hollow ache pounding inside his chest.How had it come to this?How had he pushed her so far away when all he’d ever wanted was to keep her close?Across the room, the city lights bled through the blinds, their shadows crisscrossing the carpet like prison bars.

    Cassian didn’t speak for a full thirty seconds after Julien’s footsteps faded down the corridor. Anaïs could feel the heat of his silence. It wasn’t quiet—far from it. His breaths were harsh, sharp through his nose, his jaw locked so tightly she thought his teeth might crack.She didn’t want to be the one to break it, but she couldn’t breathe in the tension any longer.“Say something,” she whispered.He turned slowly, his face unreadable. But his eyes—God, his eyes—were pitch black with something fierce. Hurt? Betrayal? She wasn’t sure anymore.“You didn’t tell me,” he said, voice low. “You didn’t say a damn thing.”“I—” Anaïs took a step forward, then stopped herself. “I didn’t know he was here. He just showed up.”“And that makes it okay?” He gave a short, cold laugh. “You froze. You didn’t even push him away.”“I didn’t freeze because I wanted him here, Cassian!” she snapped, her voice shaking. “I froze because that man terrorized me for years. Because seeing him again made my body

    The silence in the apartment was loud. Anaïs stood by the window, watching the rain smear against the glass like it was trying to erase everything behind it. Her reflection stared back at her—drawn, tired, and stripped of the anger that had carried her through the last twenty-four hours.Cassian hadn’t come back.Not since she’d stormed out of the boardroom, not since his betrayal unraveled like a rug pulled from beneath her feet. She’d walked back here like a ghost, not fully aware of how her legs still moved.She should’ve yelled. She should’ve burned it all down. But her silence had been louder than anything she could’ve said in that moment.And it was killing her.Behind her, Maris sat curled up on the armchair, phone in hand, scrolling mindlessly. She hadn’t said a word either. They were both pretending to be fine in the same room, like silence was a truce they hadn’t signed but desperately needed.“Do you think he’s coming back?” Anaïs asked, voice barely audible.Maris didn’t l

    The morning felt like it had been drained of color.Anaïs stood at the kitchen sink, not moving, not blinking. The sunlight crawled over the countertops, too bright for a day that felt so empty. A spoon clinked somewhere behind her—probably Maris—but Anaïs didn’t turn. Her hands were still, but her chest ached from holding in breath she didn’t remember trapping.Last night hadn’t been a fight. It had been a demolition.Cassian hadn’t raised his voice. He hadn’t thrown anything. He hadn’t even looked angry.But that was the worst part.He’d looked… done.“I don’t think I know what you want anymore,” he had said, quietly, like he was saying it to himself more than her.And she’d stood there, frozen, her voice lodged somewhere between her ribs.She hadn’t followed him upstairs. Not after that. She had sat on the bottom stair for nearly an hour. And when her body refused to move anymore, she’d crawled into the guest bedroom and let the ceiling stare at her until her eyes finally closed.“
