“See you next time, Ms. Hayes. It’s the way he says it. Like a promise. Like a warning. And then he’s gone. Lena doesn’t move right away. The door clicks softly, then louder than it should. It’s a silence that feels like the silence after something seismic, not a bang or crash, but an earthquake in the earth. A deep one. The kind that shifts the furniture of your interior world. She massages her temples slowly, then breathes out slowly and leans back in her chair. The room is too hot again, her skin has not stopped crawling with heat since the moment he walked in. She stares, blinking, at her screen, but the letters are white, hollow. The cursor blinks, too fast, too defiant, as if mocking h

Final. I watched it. The relentless surge and retreat. The way it swallowed the light, reflecting only the indifferent grey sky. The numbness held, a thick, insulating blanket. Adam’s face, twisted in furious pity, flashed behind my eyes. Eve’s cold smile. Vincent’s calculating gaze. The sterile white walls of St. Mary’s. Papa’s uniform, folded away forever. The taste of lemon tart. The feel of blue silk. The warmth of Adam’s hand covering mine.

He had succumbed to exhaustion, or perhaps the lingering effects of alcohol. As her tearful eyes fell upon his closed ones, a cascade of memories unfurled in her mind like a vivid slideshow. Each image flashed before her eyes with a haunting clarity, stirring a bitterness within her. as she lay there, body and soul marked by the intensity of the experience, aching and raw. She’ll never forget this night, but only If only she could have glimpsed into the future, how more vicious it’ll be than ever she had even in dream?

“Erm, anyway, you were out on the deck drinking hot chocolate, and reading. You had my attention immediately. And from that moment I knew. I came back, night after night. Oh, how I loved to hear your laughter dancing on the night breeze…” Her face seemed twisted somewhere between pain and confusion. Was she struggling to remember? It was all so clear within my mind, and it was all the memories Aria and I had so frequently revisited together. Precious memories. It hurt that they could be so easily gone. I knew this whole experience was going to be extremely hard for me…

Then— One email appears. Not recent. Not old. Dated six months ago. My breath catches. The sender field reads: Leah Hart The recipient: Dr. Isabel Cortez The subject line is blank. No greeting. No context. Just absence. I click it. The message opens. It’s short. Painfully so. I don’t feel real anymore. I don’t know how to explain it. It’s like my memories are slipping sideways instead of fading. Things feel familiar but wrong. Like they belong to someone else.

Then, out of the corner of my eye, I see it — one letter, lying just beneath the table. Relief floods me. I snatch it up like it’s proof of something sacred, snap a picture, and send it to the number from earlier. My thumbs move fast: "I need feedback immediately." Slumping into the chair, I uncork a bottle of wine, pour, and down it in one go. There is no taste. A bitter laugh escapes me. "First my memory Now my taste. What’s next? My sight?" The silence feels heavy. I lean back, muttering to myself, "Before I lose everything, I’ll free June from Natalya’s shackles. Whatever it takes."

He was busy arguing with a god that doesn’t show up to deals like his. When he bit me the second time—lower, near the collarbone, a savage drag and shake like a dog with a rope—the world went white and returned differently. Sound dulled. Edges sharpened. I tasted metal and something bitter-sweet I didn’t have a word for. The bite throbbed and throbbed, a tide that didn’t care what it drowned. I thought of Remy’s hand at the back of my neck, the way his yes felt, the way his no had made me safer, and I forced myself to breathe like Todd taught me, in through my nose, out through my mouth, like a swimmer who knows the shore is real even when the horizon lies.

She said she had recorded everything in there. He picked up his pants and checked their pockets. He took out his wallet and phone and her watch. He observed it closely. There was a very small button on the bottom corner of the watch and a memory card inside it in the opposite direction. He pressed it and the memory card popped out. He got his laptop and put the memory card inside it. He opened the memory card file and clicked on the video file. He watched the video with anger. He couldn’t see the faces since Clara’s hands were tied back but he could hear everything very clearly. His blood boiled as he heard Drake confess to everything and his heart broke into pieces as he heard her screams w
