Jake

When I saw Kiara in that chair —tied up, dirty, and pale— I felt like I could completely lose my sanity. I felt like I could kill everyone, even those who weren’t to blame. But I knew I couldn’t lose my head at that moment because my most important duty was to get her out of there safe and sound. And for that, I needed a bit of my sanity. But the enemies would taste every drop of my fury.

I kissed her because I couldn’t bear to see her pale, lonely lips. I felt her mouth as proof that ever

    ThomasThe apartment was far too quiet when we arrived.I had imagined being here differently—imagined a small place filled with life, with Kiara moving around, with the babies crying, making noise, filling every corner with something real. I had pictured chaos, warmth, interruptions… a life.But there was nothing.Only silence.Not the kind of silence you look for when you need to rest or think. Not the kind that comforts you. This was a hollow silence—heavy, uncomfortable. It crept into every corner, echoing inside my head, pressing against my chest. Since the moment we walked in, I hadn’t been able to get used to it.The absence of everything was unbearable.The walls felt narrower somehow. The air was different. There was no constant movement, no voices in the background, no footsteps echoing down a hallway. No presence of others, even in quiet moments.Just emptiness.I dropped my backpack near the couch and stood there for a few seconds, not really knowing what to do next.I had

    ThomasI never thought loving someone could hurt this much until I met Kiara.I always knew she hadn’t fully forgotten Jake. That truth had always lingered somewhere in the back of my mind, like a shadow I chose to ignore. But I never believed it would come to this. I told myself that if it ever did—if one day she chose him over me—I would be mature enough to understand it. I convinced myself I was prepared.After everything I had been through—the gunshot, the hospital, the constant feeling of standing on the edge between life and death, fighting for just one more day—I thought nothing could hit me harder than that. I thought I had already endured the worst kind of pain a person could feel.I was wrong.This… this was worse. Far worse than the bullet that had torn through my body. That pain had been physical, sharp, immediate—but it had an end. It could be numbed, treated, healed. What I felt now was something entirely different. This pain didn’t have a clear source I could touch or r

    Kiara Jake was still holding my hands in his. I don’t know at what point I stopped thinking about the cut that still hurt, about the glass, the blood, or the cold kitchen. I was only aware of the contact, of his fingers wrapped around mine. Of the way his skin radiated a warmth that seeped in sl

    Kiara The low, constant hum of the emergency generators kicked in minutes after the lights went out because of the storm. I thought they weren’t working until just a moment ago, when they suddenly turned on. The light returned little by little —very yellowish, soft— illuminating the staircase in f

    KiaraThe sound of the phone knocked the air out of my chest. Well… I didn’t have much air left in my lungs anyway because of how close we were. It vibrated hard against the counter, an insistent sound that was impossible to ignore. It shattered the silence, the tension that wrapped around Jake and

    Kiara It took me a few seconds to understand where I was, to remember that I hadn’t slept in the bed. My body felt stiff and my mind heavy. The memories came rushing back all at once as the morning peeked in through the living room window. I remembered the night, his low voice, the words he said
