Bound By Vengeance
The night was alive with quiet.
Not the peaceful quiet of rest, nor the hollow quiet of emptiness—this was the quiet that lingered before a storm. A quiet stretched so taut it hummed, every shadow sharp, every breath magnified, every heartbeat carrying the weight of anticipation.
Others might have found it unnerving. But not me.
I thrived in silence.
Silence was a weapon, one I had honed across centuries. In silence, the mind screamed the loudest. In silence, desire bled into fear, and fear into desire, until no one could tell them apart.
