      LYRIC The people mumbled as they made their way in, heading toward the stage. I was sure they didn't even know who the Executioners were, yet something about their presence was so strong that it gripped everyone's attention. While the others made their way to the stage to meet with Jaris, two of them came to me after spotting me in the VIP section. How was I still breathing? The fear that gripped me in this moment was bigger than anything I'd experienced in a whole. What if they knew my secret already?! "Why are they coming to you?" Maddy asked. I watched the others on stage converse with Jaris. They looked at me and one of them tipped his head at one of them before me. "We'd like you to come with us, ma'am. Please." He told me. "Why? What's going on?" Maddy demanded. But they didn't give her an a

JARISFor three months, I'd been blinded by the truth.And even now, it was staring at me right in the face, yet I was too hopeful to believe it.Why was she stuttering? Why was she crying so hard? Talking about not existing and all?Only guilty people act this way. And I'd be doomed if Lyric was guilty—even though I brought her in here 'cause I suspected it.Minutes rolled by. Staring at me, she could think I was being cold and not affected by any of this. She didn't know the inner demons I was fighting; how hard I was trying to pull myself together because I didn't want to believe she was truly guilty."What're you sorry for?" I asked again.Her cries only grew worse."I didn't ask to be born this way, Jaris!" Looking into my eyes, I could see the hurt and fear in them. It was killing. "I didn't even know what I was until a few months ago. And when I did, I tried to run. I—I didn't want to endanger you or any of the people around. But you caught me, remember? You were so mad a

JARISWe took the stairs, and in no time, we reached a big bedroom.I felt her stall as she admired the place. Turning her around, I helped unzip her dress."Whose room is this?" She asked, running her eyes around.I was pleased she didn't ask about the fact that I was taking her clothes off."Just a random guest room."I helped her step out the dress. She was left in just her bra top and under shorts. At least, she should feel more free."You need to rest," I told her as I pulled her with me to the bed.She hesitated a little. I knew she wanted to argue. Wanted to remind me that we had more things to worry about and that she wanted to get out of here. But she must damn tired 'cause she finally gave in and laid on the bed.I sat with my back against the headboard then placed her head on my thighs. She closed her eyes, taking a deep relaxing breath.I revelled in the sight of her face. Her beautiful flawless face.My eyes drew to her belly where one of her hands rested. I noticed s

      LYRIC My hands itched to clutch the sides of my dress, but I forced them not to, following Jaris:l' instructions. He told me not to do anything that would make me look nervous. The hall went dead silent, followed by their shocked expressions, then slow gasps and murmurs. I watched as they all exchanged glances at each other on the table, except for the Executioners who had their eyes solely on me. "You're a Siphon," Cole nodded, confirming the truth in my eyes. "And you killed Lucy." I swallowed nervously on that fact. "It was an accident. Never wanted to." "You fucking killed Lucy and dared to call it an accident?" One of the females growled, her teeth grinding together. "Lucy was an amazing person. She didn't deserve to die like that!" She was the Executioner that reminded me of Lucy, and it was the first time any of them was displaying an emotion other tha

LYRICMy hands balled into fists beside me. By the gods, I wanted to take her pride away. Just... anything to bring her from this throne a little.But I knew there was nothing I could do. Plus with my baby involved, I wasn't ready to get into another fight with her.Despite how hard it was bowing to the woman who's made me her enemy from the very first day she saw me and ensured that life was always difficult for me, I forced my head to go low, giving her the glory she wanted.I couldn't see her face, but I could somehow tell she was smiling."I don't think I can hear your words," she taunted.My throat burnt from trying to produce the words, but I forced them out nonetheless. "Grand Luna.""Hm." She stepped back, a hand on her thigh. "Sounds much better. Who would've thought that seeing you like this would be such a fulfilling sight?"I raised my head as, my cheeks burning in shame. Her smug smile made me hate myself even more."It's a good thing you're finally learning your pl
