Another knock. "Who is it?" Silence. Then Max's voice. "It's me." Nate closed his eyes. For several seconds, he didn't move. Then he walked to the door. His hand rested on the handle. He hesitated. Everything inside him screamed not to open it. But eventually, he turned the lock. The door opened. Max stood in the hallway. The party had left his face. He looked calm now. Serious. His eyes met Nate's. Neither spoke.

Heck, I almost wanted to call Lisa but then I remembered she also had her lecture. Just as I was about to turn a corner to the reception, I spotted Chloe and Nick not too far away. Chloe was pressed dangerously close to him as she ran her fingers up and down his arm and whispered something in his ear. I froze on my spot as I watched the scene unfold in front of me.

Nothing came out. No sound. No voice. Just silence. His head tilted slightly, and I could feel his eyes on me through the mask. "Go ahead," he said softly. "Scream." I tried again. Tried to force sound from my throat. Nothing. "No?" His voice carried a dark edge of amusement. "Nothing at all?" Tears burned in my eyes. He leaned forward, placing both hands on the bed on either side of my legs. Caging me. "So quiet," he murmured. "So helpless."

Chapter 6: The Weight of Silence The car moved steadily through the quiet night. The city lights glared past the windows. The roads were less crowded now, the noise of the conference long left behind. Inside the car, the silence felt heavy. Marcus sat on the driver's seat. His hands rested firmly on the steering wheel, his posture straight, eyes fixed on the road ahead. He had learned over the years when to speak and when not to. In the back seat, Lucas sat slightly turned to the side.

He was filled with fear and couldn't keep up with their conversation. "As you can see, I am a ghoul...!!" he heard Mr. Gojo shout. He sat down in shock and fear. He was afraid to look in their direction, fearing that they might be in front of him already. He couldn't even recognize Mr. Gojo in this form right now. It was like a wild creature in a dark forest who is trying to look for its prey. Because of this, he just wanted to run away. But he stumbled and fell to the ground, making a sound that caught Raia and Glutton's attention.

Cause we even sleep in one small bed back in the village with his shirtless all around but I found no sparks, maybe because I’m just trying to ignore him and convinced myself that It was just a part of me idolizing him as my best friend but the more it gets longer the heavier it gets for me to hold this feelings of mine towards this guy with the same name as mine. He ordered foods then we ate like a freaking mute for not uttering even a single word until we finished. And I tell you, it wasn’t that painful to hold yourself to not speak especially when you’re facing the man that you secretly like cause you tried to watch every words that comes out of your mouth and making sure that it is all g

Finally, she remembered that when she was younger, she was able to talk and just be quiet. It was the fact that she had been shunned at the rogue pack not to talk that she had been quiet all these while. Bingo! Maybe if she said a word, they could understand what she was saying, and maybe she could tell them she needed hearing aids and she couldn’t hear what they were saying to her. She opened her mouth, and all that came out was, “I-I-I” Well, that was a start she was certain that if she tried even harder, she was going to get it.

“Hello, who is th-“ “Ryker, please- please help me.” Sophia’s voice cried out through the phone. Ryker became alerted immediately. “It hurts so bad, i- I can’t… breathe.” There was noise in the background. Her voice sounded so weak which made Ryker panicked. He knew Sophia too well, she would never play a prank like this on him.

Because even now Even terrified It’s trying to shield me Theodore notices immediately “…Well that’s somehow sweet and horrifying.” The Eyes Shift Again Then The impossible happens The First Silence notices the movement. Not the presence. Me The gaze settles directly onto me. And suddenly Every sound disappears Not muted. Not blocked. Removed I can’t hear my heartbeat Can’t hear breathing Can’t even hear my own thoughts properly Pure silence Absolute silence. And inside that silence Something speaks Not aloud. Not emotionally. Fundamentally “You changed the pattern.” The words hit like cosmic gravity. My knees almost buckle Theodore grabs my arm instantly “Kiara!”

I didn't want to. I could hear her breathing — shallow, shaky breaths that spoke of trauma witnessed, of innocence lost. I straightened slowly, my limbs shaking, shame clinging to my skin like sweat. My breath came in soft, broken pulls. I didn't cry. There was nothing left to wring from me. Nothing except silence. And the sound I'd never heard before — so soft it could've been inside my own bones: a growl. Not Kael's. Not Mira's.
