VioletAs soon as the door slammed shut behind us, we were back in the cramped space of the tower. For some reason, I felt lighter…better. Maybe it was because I had done what I came here to do, or maybe because it went better than I expected.Speaking up had always been a hard thing for me, but if I was capable of doing this, drawing a line with Kayden, then that meant I could also speak to the council. I believed I could do it.“This button is pissing me off!” Trinity snapped, tapping the elevator button repeatedly. She released a loud groan as the doors finally opened, and as soon as we stepped in, I barely waited for them to close before asking the question that had been on my mind.“And?”Trinity lifted a brow. “And?”“Your opinion on him,” I pressed. “Kayden.”Trinity hummed, thinking about her next words. “My opinion,” she began, “is that deep down, he seems like a very sweet guy. A little lonely. Like he just wants someone to talk to.”That…surprised me.Because I was so convi

VioletI still held his gaze.Even when everything in me wanted to look away, I didn’t. My chin was lifted, and my hands calm at my sides, but the anger bubbling in my chest was hard to hide.Because the longer I looked at him, the more everything came back. And this time, all of it.I thought of my parents, and the day they were surrounded, helpless. I thought of how the Alpha King struck, and no one lifted a single hand to stop it. He had been there, betrayed them. He had seen it. Let it happen until it was already too late.Even back then, he had that same unbothered, detached look on his face like he did right now.Like none of it mattered.All that talk about an unfamiliar face?My name is Violet, and he was the one who gave it to me.He released a loud scoff. So loud, my muscles tensed at the sound. For a second, I wondered what he would say. If he would try to belittle me, cut me off, or call this a waste of time. But instead, he leaned back lazily and waved his hand in the air

VioletNate wasn’t aware, so his question came out sounding gentle and innocent, but it still hit something deep in me.It wasn’t his fault that he didn’t know the truth, or that I couldn’t tell him the reason I cared so much was because I was one of them. Well, not exactly, but enough that I felt their suffering as my own.It wasn’t really personal. It was just another way to keep myself safe, and when Kylan suggested it, I agreed. It hurt because Nate was one of the few people I trusted, and yet here I was, still holding back something so big. Kylan’s eyes pierced into mine, but I didn’t know what it meant. I didn’t know if he was encouraging me to make my own decision or to make the smart decision. I had a pretty good sense that while he trusted Nate enough to come with us to the mountains, he didn’t trust him enough to handle the truth about my identity.Nate shifted a bit, desperate to meet my gaze. “Well?”I released a gulp, but quickly played it off with a light smile. “I care

VioletIt was him.It could only be him.I sucked in a breath as I stared at the tall figure, waiting for him to disappear, but he didn’t. There was a smile plastered across his face which I couldn’t fully tell if it was warm or sad, maybe both.All I knew was that this was him, and there was no question about it.I drew in a shaky breath. “Alaric?” My voice was barely above a whisper. A relieved breath came from his lips, and he nodded once, his eyes never leaving mine.“Dad?”He exhaled, then broke into a wide, almost disbelieving smile. “Yes, I’m your dad,” he nodded again. “We have met before.”The flashes returned from another dream, the one I had in Starlight, where I found myself in the same place. Back then, a voice told me I wasn’t supposed to be there. Then I remembered him holding me as a baby through Adelaide’s eyes.We had met before, and that’s why he felt so safe and familiar.“I know,” I whispered back. The moment he stepped closer, it felt like the ground had disappea

VioletKylan had spread the blankets out right in the middle of the balcony. The cool night air brushed past while the stars in the sky felt like they were made for just us.We lay side by side, and my head rested on his chest, which was rising and falling with each steady breath as his eyes were fixed on the sky.My eyes weren’t on the stars. They stayed on Kylan and the soft smile on his face. He was trying so hard to make me feel safe, to make what I had seen in the Veil seem small and far away. But I knew it wasn’t, and so did he.This was a way to keep me safe from my own thoughts, and it was working. “I think I know now,” I spoke softly.“Know what?”“Why you look up at the stars,” I told him. “Because no matter how bad the day is, the stars still show up, and even on the worst day they remind you to breathe.”Kylan nodded slowly, his eyes still fixed on the sky. What he didn’t know was that I wasn’t really talking about the stars at all.I was talking about him. He was my star
