Before The World Sees Us Country: AurivelleCity: AuremontAlvara(Two Months Later)I stepped out of the bathroom, the faint scent of soap still clinging to my skin as I walked to my wardrobe. My fingers moved through the hangers slowly, thoughtfully, until I settled on a cream blouse and beige baggy trousers.Simple. Clean. Enough.After dressing, I slipped into my brown flats, then reached for my structured tote. A pair of pearl earrings followed, small but elegant, before I gathered my hair into a neat low bun.Just as I began placing the last few things into my bag, a knock came at the door.I opened it.Isabella stood there, already dressed, already smiling.“I’m done,” I said immediately.Because I knew exactly what she was about to say.She tilted her head slightly, amused. “I didn’t say anything.”“You were about t

The Night We WonCountry: Aurivelle City: Auremont AlvaraThe moment my model stepped onto the runway…Everything inside me stilled.I couldn’t see her anymore.Only the sharp echo of her heels against the floor…The slow rise of music…The distant murmur of the audience.And then…Applause.Soft at first.Then building.My breath caught.That was for my design.My fingers curled slightly at my sides.“Alvara…” Isabella whispered beside me, barely containing her excitement.I didn’t respond.I couldn’t.The second model was already moving.I adjusted her sleeve quickly, my hands steadier now, more certain.“Go,” I said under my breath.She stepped out.Again…That sound.That reaction.Stronger this time.Warmer.Real.Something shifted in my chest.

Between Goodbye And Becoming Country: Aurivelle City: Auremont AlvaraI woke up the next morning… but I couldn’t bring myself to get out of bed.Everything that had happened over the past six months pressed down on me all at once…too heavy, too loud to ignore.From being selected… to arriving at this institute… and now, leaving it.But most importantly… I wasn’t leaving as the same girl who had walked in.I was going back as someone else entirely.My gaze drifted to my stomach, and slowly, I rested my hand there, fingers trembling as I rubbed it gently.It had been eight months… but the memory still lingered like a wound that refused to close.And sometimes, I couldn’t help but wonder what life would have looked like if things had never fallen apart.If I was still in Eldoria…Would I still be with Adrian?Or would things have only grown worse between us?W

Two Days To Auremont Country: Aurivelle City: Cressford AlvaraMorning didn’t arrive loudly.It crept in.Soft light first… slipping through the curtains, spreading gently across my room like it wasn’t sure it had permission to be there.I blinked slowly, still half caught between sleep and awareness.For a moment, I didn’t move.Just lay there.Staring at the ceiling.Listening.The house was quiet.Not silent… just alive in a quiet way.Distant sounds from the kitchen drifted in.The faint clink of utensils.Soft movement.The rhythm of someone already awake.Home.I inhaled slowly.The air here always felt the same.Familiar.Safe.But today… it carried something else too.Something I couldn’t quite name.A weight.My eyes closed for a second.Then

Quite Goodbyes Country: AurivelleCity: CressfordAlvaraMonday didn’t rush in.It arrived slowly… like it understood exactly what today meant.I woke up earlier than usual, but I didn’t get out of bed right away.I just lay there.Staring at the ceiling.Listening.The house was already awake.Drawers opening.Closets shifting.Soft footsteps moving from room to room.Mom.Of course.I let out a quiet breath and pushed myself up, running a hand through my hair before standing.For a moment, I just stood there… looking around my room.Everything was still the same.Just as it had been eight months agothough not entirely untouched.This house…our first real stop after everything fell apart.Our quiet beginning in Cressford.And today…We would start taking pieces of it apart.When
