Tears were still running down Demi's cheeks when she suddenly smiled. "Keira, I'm starving. Grab me risotto.""On it," I said quickly. "Want some meat, too?"She used to be all about meat—then complain about dieting right after."Meat helps you heal, right? Why not?" she replied with a playful grin, like the old Demi was still in there somewhere.Her smile hit me harder than her tears. How could she act so normal when I knew she wasn't okay? I forced a grin. "Alright. Pork belly sound good?""Make sure it's marbled, not all lean or fat," she quipped, her usual picky self."Got it. Only the best for you," I promised, standing up.But instead of leaving, I hovered outside her door, leaning against the frame. A moment later, the sound of her quiet sobs slipped through.I pressed my back to the wall, eyes shut, my chest tightening like I couldn't breathe. After a second to pull myself together, I headed out to grab her food. That's when I ran into Jace.The second I saw him, my mi

"You said you'd been suspicious of Wayne for a while. What about Jace? You were working with him, but when he was surrounded by crocodiles, you just... stood there. Why?" I finally asked, a question that had haunted me for ages.Even though Jace and I had ended things, that moment stuck in my head, like a bad movie scene I couldn't skip. I'd even dreamt about it.I'd asked Jace once, but his answer didn't feel real. Hayden's answer? That's the one I needed."Testing him," Hayden said, cool and straight to the point."Testing him? He's Wayne's brother.""He is," Hayden said, not budging. "But not entirely. There were... other reasons.""Like what?" I pressed, trying to stay patient.I was sitting sideways, avoiding his bandaged arm. His face was out of view, but his voice stayed steady."Because everything pointed too perfectly at Wayne, like it was staged," he explained.His words pulled me back to the events of that time.Things went south as soon as I moved into Wayne's vil

Wayne was behind his pain, and I made a mental note to remember it.I stopped, still pressed close to Hayden, catching my breath. Messing around with him like this felt... good, like we were back to normal.Then I remembered he was technically still supposed to be in a coma. "How long are you planning to keep up the act?" I asked."I'm done. I'm awake now, aren't I?" he replied, grinning lazily.I couldn't help but laugh. "You're such a troll. You're just messing with them for fun, aren't you?"Hayden's expression darkened slightly. "If I didn't have bigger priorities, I'd do more than mess with them. I'd make them pay."His tone was casual, but the words carried a dangerous edge.He called it "messing," but we both knew he was talking about risking everything—his life, no less. It wasn't that different from what Demi had been through."I saw Demi..." I told him about her situation, sharing everything I'd learned. Hayden didn't say a word, but I could see the weight of it in hi

It felt like another riddle waiting to be solved, but honestly? The less I knew, the safer we both were.Hayden kissed my forehead. "Don't worry. I'm not going anywhere—my little monster needs me."Little monster?! Okay, adorable. I grabbed my phone and immediately updated my chat app username to match.Steve noticed in about two seconds flat. [Who are you planning to attack now?] he messaged.I smirked, thinking, 'Monsters don't attack—they just make sure no one messes with them.'It had been a while since I'd heard from Steve. After Houston, all I knew was he'd sold his pool hall and gone off the grid.Considering how messy things got back there, I couldn't blame him for bailing. Honestly, it was probably the smartest move.I fired back two words: [Fighting demons!]Steve replied almost instantly. [How have you been lately?]Whether I was good or not didn't really matter. If he'd been keeping up with the news, he'd already know. The fact he asked meant he hadn't been paying

Wayne's gaze darkened, heavy and cold. "Of course it matters."If it weren't for Hayden, Wayne might've had his shot. Keira and Jace's breakup had been the perfect opening, but Hayden had slipped in before he could.Wayne had always blamed himself for being just a step too late. If he'd come back sooner—been there when the cracks started between Keira and Jace—would Hayden have ever been part of the picture?But life doesn't deal in what ifs. Wayne had missed his chance, and Hayden had taken it."How surprising—and what an honor—to be someone so important to you," Hayden quipped, his words sharp enough to draw blood.Wayne smirked faintly. "Let's stop playing games and get to the point.""To what exactly?" Hayden's tone was light, almost mocking."I know why you're pretending to be someone else," Wayne said, straight to the point. "But you're not part of Blade Front anymore. That fight? It's not yours. If you keep this up, you'll just end up hurting yourself—and everyone around
