The Moon's Dark Embrace
He only holds my hand when people are looking, and he only comes to my room to leave seconds later as people pass.
It’s all fake.
But my heart isn’t listening to that fact. It beats harder every time he is around. He’s taught me how to fight in the shadows, to hear things that are coming, and to embrace them. He’s taught me where my power should come from, and he is patient with me in every lesson. I can get through the training lessons with him, even combating against others and not completely getting killed outright.
If Tobias sees me coming, he doesn’t pause in his long strides toward the training center, and I stop at his side, touching his arm to make him pause.
