Amy’s POVThe air between Kael and me felt colder than ever. I couldn’t look at him without feeling the sting of anger rise in my chest. He had been distant for days, and though I’d tried to speak to him, every word felt like a wall between us. Now, I was done trying. If he wanted silence, I would give it to him.At breakfast, he spoke, but I didn’t answer. At lunch, he tried to start a conversation, but I kept my eyes fixed on my plate. Even in the gym, when he passed by me with that hard, unbothered look, I didn’t flinch. The silence was louder than any argument we’d ever had.By the time I was done with my workout, sweat clinging to my skin, I needed a shower more than I needed to breathe. Kael was nowhere in sight, but his phone sat on the counter, face down. I had never once thought of going through it. I trusted him—or at least, I used to. I brushed past it, grabbed my towel, and walked to the shower.The warm water ran down my body, washing away the tension, but not the thought

Amy’s POVThe night breeze brushed against Amy’s skin, cool yet heavy, as if the air itself carried her sorrow. Evan stood in front of her, his face unreadable beneath the faint glow of the courtyard lights.For a while, neither of them spoke. Then Amy’s chest began to tremble, her throat tightening as she tried to hold it all in. But the ache was too much. The pressure inside her burst like a dam—tears spilled freely down her cheeks.“Hey…” Evan’s voice softened, but before he could say anything more, Amy stepped forward and threw her arms around him.“I just—” her voice cracked against his chest, “I don’t understand why he’s lying to me. Why would he say there’s nothing going on when I saw it, Evan? Why would he lie that he doesn’t miss her?”Her body trembled against his. Evan didn’t move, didn’t take advantage—he only wrapped his arms slowly around her, firm but gentle, grounding her through the storm she was drowning in.She sobbed harder, the sound muffled against him.Evan exha

Amy’s POVAmy’s footsteps echoed faintly across the palace corridor as she made her way back from the gym. The weight of what had just happened pressed on her chest like a vice. Evan’s lips had brushed hers—just for a second—but that second replayed in her mind over and over again.She had gone there to breathe, to think, to escape Kael’s silence. Instead, she’d almost made a mistake she couldn’t take back.Her fingers trembled as she reached for the door to their suite. The palace was quiet, the halls bathed in silver light from the chandeliers. Every sound felt too loud against the silence—her heartbeat, the faint squeak of her shoes, the whisper of her breath.Kael’s car was in the driveway. He was home.Amy took a shaky breath and stepped inside their room. The lights were off, only the moonlight spilling in through the large windows. Kael lay on his side, facing the wall, his bare shoulders tense beneath the sheets.She froze for a moment, watching him. Even in the dark, she coul

Amy’s POVThe morning came with a quiet that felt unnatural. No sound of Kael’s shoes in the hallway, no voice giving orders to the guards. Amy stood at the window, clutching the curtain, watching as men carried Kael’s suitcases to the black car parked outside.Her heart pounded. “What’s going on?” she asked, stepping into the doorway as Kael fastened his watch.He didn’t look at her. “I’m moving out.”“What do you mean, moving out?” she asked, her voice breaking.“I need space,” he said flatly. “You and I—we’ve done enough damage to each other.”Amy shook her head, disbelief washing over her. “Kael, please don’t do this. We can fix it. We can talk—”“There’s nothing to fix.”“Don’t say that.” Her voice rose. “You’re my husband. You can’t just walk away like this.”Kael turned toward her, his expression unreadable. “Amy, don’t make this harder.”She stepped closer, her hands trembling. “Harder? You’ve been ignoring me, lying to me, and now you’re leaving me without an explanation?”Hi

Amy's pov Kael held Amy close, blood still seeping through the cloth she had tied around his shoulder. His voice was low, strained.“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner. I was only trying to protect you,” he said. “There were things happening… things I couldn’t explain. I had no choice.”Amy pressed her forehead to his chest. “It’s okay. I trusted that deep down you’d never leave me.”They stayed like that for a moment, clinging to each other, until a sudden movement snapped everything into chaos.Quinn lunged forward, knife in hand. Amy barely had time to gasp. Kael pushed her back instinctively, taking the blade across the same shoulder that had been shot weeks ago. He grunted, pain flashing across his face.“Kael!” Amy cried, clutching him. Blood welled through the fabric.Quinn froze, the reality of what she’d done crashing down on her. “No! This wasn’t for you! It wasn’t meant to—” Her voice broke. Tears streamed down her cheeks as she sank to her knees. “Kael, I… I didn’t mean t
