The Man I Buried
Something about that—
The way he said it—
The distance in it—
Made something inside me falter.
I pulled back slightly, searching his face again.
“You’re staying,” I said.
It wasn’t a question.
It had to be true.
“You’re not leaving again.”
Silence.
Just for a second.
But it was enough.
“Kael,” I pressed, my voice tightening. “You’re staying.”
His expression shifted.
Not away from me.
Not cold.
But…
Sad.
“Lyra,” he said softly, “you know that’s not how this works.”
