GAIA -Finally, after what felt like forever, Declan's lips moved. Barely. His breath fogged faintly in the cool air of the room.I lifted my hands from under my arms, feeling the soreness pull at my healing stitches, and started signing as fast as I could."Say it again. Please."He looked at me, the shadows under his eyes making him look even more exhausted, and mouthed the words slower this time."I killed him."My throat tightened painfully. His skin was pale, the dark stitches across his neck and shoulders pulling tight, fresh blood seeping through the bandages beneath his shirt. The bruises stood out against his skin. I carefully placed my hand near his injured shoulder, cautious not to add to his pain."Tell me everything," I signed again. He sighed painfully, a ragged breath that made his broken ribs shift beneath his bruised skin. I braced myself for his story as the rush of emotion... his emotion... slammed into my senses. "He was freaking out," Declan mouthed silently, ey

DECLAN - She lay beside me. Neither of us had spoken in a while. We didn't need to. Her fingertips traced slow lines along my ribs, mapping every scar, every muscle, every inch of me she had never explored before. The touch sent fire through my skin, but I kept still, letting her take her time.She pushed my shirt open after she slowly unbuttoned it. The fabric slid to the side, leaving me exposed beneath her curious touch. A shiver rippled through me, my body adjusting to the way her fingers brushed against my skin. It wasn't just a touch. It was something new, something deeper, something I had never let myself have before.Her fingers skimmed over my ribs, tracing the dips and ridges, lingering over scars she had never noticed until now. Each stroke sent a slow burn through me, a sensation so foreign that I barely knew what to do with it. My breathing hitched when she dragged her fingertips lower, hovering just above my stomach before pressing her palm against my abs, testing the

DECLAN - Gaia's arm was draped around my waist as we walked back to my room, her touch grounding in a way I wasn't ready to think too hard about. The house was quiet except for the distant hum of conversation downstairs. The scents of dinner still lingered in the air, but I wasn't hungry. Too much had happened today, too many things stirring under my skin that I couldn't sort through yet.We stopped in front of my door. Gaia shifted beside me like she wasn't sure if she wanted to let go just yet. I exhaled sharply, glancing down the hall. I could hear soft crying. Not just anyone's. Tory's. And Roxy was nowhere to be found. My stomach turned.Gaia followed my eyes. "Go," she murmured, already stepping back. "I'll find something to do."I hesitated. "Are you sure?"She rolled her eyes, a smirk tugging at her lips. "I can survive without you for an hour, Declan."I shook my head, but I appreciated how easy she made things. With one last glance, she walked off, leaving me standing outs

I found Cast and Linc in the office, going over some pack reports. Linc leaned back in his chair while Cast was half-standing, flipping through pages with a scowl. They barely looked up when I walked in, but I didn't care. I had something to say, and they were going to listen."We're starting ASL classes," I said, crossing my arms. "Everyone is required to attend. That includes both of you."Linc's brow lifted slightly, and Cast set the papers down with an exasperated sigh. "You're giving us orders now?" Cast asked, folding his arms over his chest."Yes."They exchanged a look. Linc sighed first. "Declan, you don't get to just..."I cut him off. "I do. And I am. This should've happened the second we knew Gaia was deaf. Jaed made sure every single person in his pack knew how to communicate with her before they moved there. But here? We're still scribbling on notepads like it's the Dark Ages."Linc's jaw tightened. Cast clenched his teeth, looking more annoyed than guilty. But I wasn't

DECLAN - Jaed turned on his heel and stormed out, steps heavy enough to shake the floor. The door slammed hard enough to rattle the frame. Gaia moved fast, pushing out of the room after him without looking back. My body still burned, everything wound so tight I thought I might snap in half. There was no way in hell I was walking out there right now, not like this. I sat on the edge of the bed, planted my feet, and dragged both hands through my hair before forcing them down. If I kept doing that, it would only make everything worse. I needed to get it together. I needed to think about something else. Anything else. My breathing was too hard, too uneven. My pulse pounded in my ears. My entire body ached, my skin too hot, my blood thick and heavy. Every inch of me still screamed for her, for more, for everything I had been seconds away from having. I stared at the ceiling and tried to focus. No good. Every thought ran straight back to her. To the way she had felt pressed against m
