The morning sunlight flashes through the window like a false promise of peace and hits my face. I sat on the edge of the bed in the unfamiliar room, staring at my hands, nothing was running through my mind but I got my eyes pinned staring at it.They trembled slightly from the adrenaline which was yet to run off from me. Last night’s attack hadn’t been a dream. It was so huge and terrible that I thought I couldn't make it. The assassin had nearly killed me, and no one—no one—got to him in time. I had to struggle to get myself off. I couldn't scream nor could I call out for help.Tears had pulled up in my eyes, maybe I needed to run away from this pack, to avoid being murdered by the assassin. But where in particular? Leaving this pack would only open me to more dangers as Sebastian will stop at nothing to get hold of me.I had stopped waiting for anyone to save me. I needed to stand up and save myself but realization hit me. I was no match to him. A weakling who is mute.Killian had

Everything stopped. The world slowed. I couldn’t breathe. The blood—the sight of it—made my stomach turn. My mind screamed, but I couldn’t hear anything except the loud thumping of my heart. My vision blurred. My hands shook.Killian.The blood was pooling around him, dark and thick. His eyes locked onto me. His body was still. Too still.I felt the pull in my chest—the ache that grew stronger the longer I stared at him. My throat burned with the weight of my unspoken words. I wanted to scream, to beg him to move, to tell me he was okay. But I couldn’t. Not a single sound escaped my lips.I was useless.The tension in the air felt thick, suffocating, as Darius’s figure stood in front of me, his chest heaving. He was breathing hard, his eyes wide, and he was watching Killian, almost waiting for something. Waiting for a reaction. Waiting for him to fight back.But Killian didn’t move. Not yet.My hands trembled as I reached for him, my body instinctively wanting to run to his side, but

I couldn’t see anything in the fog. It was thick and suffocating, wrapping around me like a heavy blanket. My heart pounded in my chest, and I could feel the panic rising in my throat. I tried to take deep breaths, but the air felt heavy, making it hard to breathe. My eyes darted around, but there was nothing. Nothing but the swirling smoke that made everything blurry.I needed to find Killian. He had to be somewhere. He was strong—he could survive. But I couldn’t be sure, not with this fog clouding everything. I started walking, my feet unsure on the uneven ground, my body tense as I listened for any sound that could guide me. The footsteps I had heard earlier stopped. There was nothing now. Just silence.I kept moving, my ears straining for any sign of life. I reached out with my hands, brushing them against trees and rocks, trying to steady myself. I had to keep going. I couldn’t stop. I couldn’t leave him alone out there.“Killian?” I whispered, hoping my voice would break through

I sat on the edge of the chair, my fingers curled tightly around the pen. The notebook in front of me looked empty. Just like my head. Just like my voice. Just like my life has been empty. “Don’t worry,” Luca said with a kind smile. “We’ll start small today, Selene. Writing your name. That’s all.”He pulled his chair closer. His presence was calm, gentle. Not threatening. I didn’t flinch when he moved—he wasn’t like Raven.“Here. Hold the pen like this,” he said, guiding my fingers. “S... E... L...”My hand trembled. I pressed the pen down and scratched out a shaky “S.” It didn’t look right. I frowned.“Hey,” Luca said quickly. “It’s fine. That’s great for a first try.”I looked at him. His smile didn’t feel fake.“Let’s try again. Just follow my hand.”I tried again. “E... L... E... N... E.” The letters were crooked and uneven. I looked at him, ashamed.“You did it.” He pointed at the page. “That’s your name.”I blinked my eyes at what he said. I couldn’t smile, not really, but I ga

Luca was patient.He sat across from me in the classroom, his elbows resting on the table, eyes kind and gentle. He held up a flashcard with a single word printed in bold letters: safe.“Try it again,” he encouraged softly. “Say it slowly. No pressure.”I looked at the word. My lips moved without sound at first, then I forced it out, even though my heart beat fast.“S-s...safe.”His eyes lit up. “Yes! That’s it. You did it!”A small smile formed on my lips. I had said it. Out loud.Luca clapped once and leaned back in his chair. “You’re doing amazing, Selene. You’re learning so fast.”I looked down, shy but happy. This wasn’t like the last time I had tried to learn something. Before, every mistake meant a slap or a harsh word. Now, mistakes were okay. Luca never raised his voice. He never made me feel stupid.He made me feel safe.When I looked up, I saw Killian standing by the door. His arms were folded over his chest, his expression unreadable—but there was something soft in his eye
