View MoreLilith’s POVEverything happened at once.One second there was sound….gunfire colliding, glass shattering, the record skipping like a broken heartbeat and the next second there was only chaos. Nolan moved before I even understood what Denzel was doing. His body stepped in front of mine, broad and unthinking, like instinct itself had taken control.The impact was loud.Too loud.Nolan gasped, the sound sharp and wrong, and then he was falling.“Nolan!” I screamed.I caught him, or tried to. His weight crashed into me, knocking the breath from my lungs as we hit the floor together. Warmth spread across my hands, soaking into my clothes, and I knew….before I saw it….that he had been hit.Cassian’s gun fired almost simultaneously.I heard it, but I didn’t see it. I was too busy holding Nolan, too busy pressing my hands against his chest where blood was already blooming dark and fast. Denzel staggered backward in my peripheral vision, shock frozen on his face, and then he dropped….hard, fi
Cassian’s POVThe record kept spinning.The same song. The same scratch at the same place, like time itself had been caught in a loop it didn’t know how to escape. Denzel stood near the turntable now, one hand resting on the cabinet like this was his living room and not the house Nolan and I had bled to build.Lilith was between us.That alone was enough to keep me breathing evenly, to keep my hands steady at my sides instead of doing what every instinct screamed at me to do.Denzel’s smile was gone.“You really thought I wouldn’t come for answers,” he said, voice sharp with fury now, stripped of its performative warmth. “After everything I did for you both? The sacrifices? And what did you both do to me?!”Nolan didn’t respond. He never did when Denzel was like this. Silence had always been Nolan’s way of drawing lines.I spoke instead. “You didn’t do what you think you did.”Denzel’s eyes snapped to me. “I fucking took you off the streets.”And just like that….I wasn’t in the house
Cassian’s POVThe moment Nolan ended the call, I just felt something wrong is going to happen.Not because of what he said….tightening security, increasing patrols, locking every possible entry point. That was expected. Necessary. But the air shifted immediately afterward, like the house itself inhaled sharply and forgot how to breathe.Then we heard it.The soft crackle of a vinyl record spinning to life.At first, my mind refused to register it. My body, however, reacted instantly….every muscle locking, every instinct screaming.The melody floated up the staircase, slow and familiar. Too familiar.Nolan and I turned to each other at the exact same time.That song.The one we used to play endlessly as kids, lying on the floor of a rundown apartment, dreaming about a future that didn’t include blood or guns or men like him. A song Denzel, Nolan and I loved. A song he claimed made him feel “nostalgic.”Fear crawled up my spine, cold and deliberate.“No,” I breathed under my breath.Lil
Lilith’s POVThree days.That was how long it had been since the warehouse. Since the concrete floor, the gunshot, Theo’s eyes going empty. Since Cassian’s arms around me while everything else fell apart.Three days, and time still refused to move properly.Morning bled into afternoon without meaning. Night came too fast, dragging the memories with it. I had not slept….not really. Every time I closed my eyes, I was back there. The smell of rust. The echo of screams. The sound that ended a life and split mine clean down the middle.My room was quiet.Too quiet.The curtains were half-drawn, sunlight leaking in thin strips across the floor. I sat on the edge of the bed, knees pulled to my chest, Cassian’s jacket still wrapped tightly around me even though it was warm. I hadn’t taken it off since he put it on me.It smelled like him….clean, familiar, grounding. It was the only thing that made the room feel real.A soft knock came at the door.“Lilith?” Nolan’s voice. Careful. Gentle. Lik
Lilith’s POVBring overwhelmed didn’t even begin to cover it.If someone had asked me, right at that moment, how I felt sitting in a dimly lit VIP room of a packed club with pounding bass vibrating through the walls, I wouldn’t have been able to give a single clear answer. My emotions were stacked
Cassian’s POVI was stuck between answering the phone, with the whole drama going on right now. I really don't want to stir up any more emotions for her. “You can answer the phone case,” she said, looking at me. “I don't have to, you know,”“No, you don't have to,”I searched her face, looking fo
Lilith’s POVI did not even realize how loud Kyra’s voice had become so loud in my head until I was halfway home and still hearing it, it was pretty clear, calm, devastatingly certain.“You’re a complication they don’t need.”The city blurred past me as I walked, my steps automatic, my mind filled
Lilith’s POVIf there was one thing I had learned over the past few weeks, it was that silence could be more dangerous than noise.So when Lyra and Kyra had suggested we “talk somewhere quiet,” I didn’t miss the way my shoulders tensed up immediately.Not too quiet, I had insisted.They had exchang
