chapter 51

Rose’s POV It stops waiting. Those words didn’t just sit in the air They settled inside me. Heavy. Certain. Final. I could feel it. That presence— That thing sealed deep inside me— It wasn’t quiet anymore. Not really. It wasn’t pushing like before. It wasn’t clawing at the edges of the seal. It was… still. Too still. Like something that had just realized it didn’t need to struggle anymore. Like something that had found a better way out. My breath came slower now. Careful. Measured. Because I understood something I hadn’t before. The first time, it tried to break free. Now… It was learning. And that terrified me more than anything else. “…it changed,” I whispered. The Lycan King didn’t let go of me. His hand still steady on my arm. Grounding. “What do you mean?” “It’s not fighting,” I said. My voice barely above a breath. “It’s… waiting.” Silence followed that. Not empty. Heavy. Because he understood what that mea

Rose’s POVDarkness.Not the kind you close your eyes into.Not the kind that fades when you blink.This one stayed.Heavy.Endless.Alive.I didn’t feel my body.I didn’t feel the ground.I didn’t feel anything…Except awareness.And that was worse.Because it meant I was still here.Somewhere.My thoughts came slowly.Like dragging something through thick water.“…am I… dead?”The question echoed.Not outwardInward.And something answered.Not the presence.Not the fragments.Her.“You’re finally quiet.”My breath hitchedOr at least, it felt like it did.“…where are we?”Silence stretched for a moment.Then—“Inside the core.”The word hit differently now.Core.Not a place.Not exactly.More like…The center of everything I was.Everything I sealed.Everything I refused to remember.My vision shifted.Slowly.Like something peeling back.And then I saw it.Not clearly.Not fully.But enough.An endless space.Not black.Not white.Something in between.Like shadows layered over l

Chapter 53

Rose POVI couldn’t breathe right.Not because something was choking me.Because something felt… off.Wrong.Like my body didn’t belong to me anymore.In.Out.Too slow.Too heavy.I kept staring at my hands.They looked the same.Nothing different.But I could feel it.Under my skin.Moving.Not physically… but—God.I don’t even know how to explain it.“Rose.”Kael’s voice pulled me back.I blinked, realizing I had been staring at nothing for too long.“I’m fine,” I said quickly.Too quickly.Even I didn’t believe it.His eyes narrowed slightly.“You’re not.”I hated how sure he sounded.“I said I’m fine.”Silence.Thick.Uncomfortable.He didn’t argue… but he didn’t look away either.That was worse.Because it felt like he could see through me.Like he knew.About the voice.About the way something inside me felt… awake.I swallowed.“Why are you looking at me like that?” I asked.“Like what?”“Like I’m about to break.”A pause.Then—“Because you are.”My chest tightened.“I’m not

Chapter 54

Rose’s POVThe pain didn’t last long.But the echo of it?That stayed.Like something had just… warned me.Not hurt me.Warned me.I was still in Kael’s arms when it faded, my fingers gripping his shirt without even realizing it.My breathing was uneven.Too fast.Too loud in my own ears.“Rose.”His voice was lower now.Careful.Like he didn’t want to trigger something again.“I’m okay,” I said.But it came out weak.Not convincing.Not even close.His hands didn’t leave me.Good.Because I didn’t think I could stand properly if he did.“It reacted,” I whispered.I didn’t even know why I said it out loud.Maybe because keeping it in felt worse.Kael’s jaw tightened.“To me.”Not a question.A statement.I nodded slowly.“Yeah.”My throat felt dry.“It didn’t like what you said.”A small silence passed between us.Heavy.Then—“That means it’s aware,” he said.Aware.The word settled in my chest like a stone.“I think it’s more than that,” I admitted quietly.Because awareness didn’t

Chapter 55

Rose’s POVI didn’t like the silence.Not the one around us.The one inside me.It felt too quiet.Too still.Like something was watching and choosing not to speak.And somehow that was worse.I stayed close to Kael without thinking about it. My fingers were still wrapped around his shirt, like if I let go something would pull me away.He didn’t move either.Just stood there, steady, like he was waiting for the next thing to happen.Because it would.We both knew it.“You said I have to learn it,” I said quietly.My voice sounded tired.Not scared this time.Just tired.Kael nodded once.“Yes.”I swallowed.“How do I learn something that feels like it wants to take over me?”His eyes stayed on mine.“You stop running from it.”That answer irritated me.Because it sounded simple.And this was not simple.“It’s not that easy,” I said.“I know.”“Do you?” I pushed a little. “Because you’re not the one hearing another voice inside your head.”“I’ve seen worse.”That made me pause.Because

Chapter 56

Rose’s POVI didn’t sleep.I don’t even think I tried.Every time I closed my eyes, it felt like I was falling into something I couldn’t see. Like if I let go for even a second, I wouldn’t come back the same.So I stayed awake.Sitting on the edge of the bed.Staring at nothing.Listening.Waiting.It was quiet again.Too quiet.And I hated that I was starting to notice the pattern.It speaks.It watches.Then it waits.Like it’s giving me time.Time for what?I rubbed my arms slowly, trying to shake off the cold feeling crawling under my skin.“You’re thinking too much.”I froze.There it was.Soft.Right behind my thoughts.“I wasn’t talking to you,” I muttered.A low, almost amused feeling brushed through my head.“You don’t have to.”I clenched my jaw.Ignore it.Just ignore it.“You’re getting better at hearing me.”That made my chest tighten.Better?I didn’t want to get better at this.At all.The door opened quietly behind me.I didn’t turn immediately.I already knew who it w

Chapter 57

Rose POV Something is wrong. Not the usual wrong. Not the voice. Not the fear. This is… deeper. I can feel it. Like something inside me just shifted into place. I stood there, still holding onto Kael, but my grip slowly loosened without me meaning to. Because suddenly I wasn’t panicking anymore. And that scared me more than anything. “Rose?” Kael noticed immediately. Of course he did. He always does. But I didn’t answer. I was too busy listening. Not to him. To it. Because it wasn’t whispering this time. It wasn’t pushing. It was just… there. Clear. Steady. Like it had always belonged. “You feel it now.” My heartbeat slowed. That was the first thing I noticed. It wasn’t racing anymore. It wasn’t out of control. It was calm. Too calm. “I don’t like this,” I said quietly. But even to my own ears I didn’t sound scared. I sounded… distant. Kael’s hand tightened slightly on my arm. “You changed.” His voice dropped

Chapter 58

Rose’s POV I hate how quiet I’ve become. I can feel it. That difference. Before, everything inside me was loud. Panic, fear, confusion. It filled my chest, my head, everything. Now? It’s like someone turned the volume down. Not gone. Just… controlled. And that’s what scares me. Because I don’t know if that control is mine. Or hers. I wrapped my arms around myself slowly, like that would hold me together somehow. Kael didn’t move away. He stayed close. Watching. Always watching. “You’re drifting again,” he said. “I’m not,” I replied. But even to my own ears, it sounded off. Too calm. Too steady. Not like me. “You are,” he said quietly. His voice wasn’t sharp this time. It was… careful. Like he was dealing with something fragile. Something that could break any second. Or something that could snap. “I’m still here,” I insisted. And I meant it. I am here. Right? A soft sound echoed in my head. Not laughter. Not exactly. Just… something. “You keep aski

Chapter 59

Rose’s POV I didn't know how long I stood there. Maybe a minute. Maybe ten. Time felt strange lately. Sometimes it moved too fast, other times it felt like it had stopped completely. I could still feel Kael's hand around my arm. Warm. Steady. Real. I held onto that feeling because I needed something real. Something that belonged to me. The voice had gone quiet again. And I didn't trust it. Not anymore. “Are you going to keep staring at me?” Kael asked. I blinked. I hadn't even realized I was looking at him. “Sorry.” “You don't have to apologize.” “I wasn't…” I stopped. What was I going to say? That I was trying to figure out whether I could trust him? That I was wondering what he knew? That I was scared he might be the only person who could help me and the only person who knew enough to hurt me? None of those things sounded good. So I looked away. “I don't understand what's happening to me.” “I know.” “I hate when you say that.” His eyebrows pulled togethe

Chapter 60

Rose’s POV“Sunny.”His name left my mouth before I could stop it.For a second, I forgot everything else.The shattered window.The smoke filling the room.Kael standing in front of me.Even the voice inside my head went completely silent.Sunny.He was really here.After everything.I could hear footsteps moving closer in the hallway, but my body refused to move.My heart was beating so hard it hurt.Kael looked back at me.“Do you know him?”I stared at him.That question almost made me laugh.“Of course I know him.”My voice came out quieter than I expected.“He was my mate.”Kael's face hardened.I could feel the change in him immediately.Not surprise.Not confusion.Something else.Something that made me wonder if he already knew Sunny would come looking for me.Another voice came from outside.“Rose, come out.”Sunny.My hands became cold.I hadn't heard his voice in so long.Yet my body remembered it.That was the part I hated.Even after everything he had done, some stupid p
