Elias’s POVThe shield pulsed again, harder this time.A sharp vibration rolled through the walls, through the floorboards, through the marrow of my bones. My breath hitched as the air shifted; pressurized, trembling, alive with warning.Someone was overriding the lock.Ronan didn’t hesitate for even half a second.His hand shot out behind him, finding my hip, guiding me backward without looking.“Move,” he said, low and deadly calm.I stepped back instinctively. But I didn’t get far.The heat in my glands surged again, making my legs shake.Ronan sensed it instantly. His free hand curled slightly, like he wanted to reach for me. He didn’t, Not now.His instinct was brutal, but his restraint was stronger.“Sit,” he ordered softly. “On the bed. Now.”“Ronan…”“Do it.”The tone left no room for argument, but it wasn’t dominance.It was fear, Fear for me.I obeyed.The moment I sat, Ronan placed himself fully between me and the door, broad shoulders tense, spine straight, aura expanding i

Elias’s POVRonan didn’t sleep. I knew it even before I opened my eyes.The room was dim; just the faint blue glow of the shield panel humming softly. I was still lying on the bed, half-covered by Ronan’s jacket, my body finally cooling, the worst of the scenting crash fading.Ronan stood by the door like he’d been carved there. Arms crossed, Eyes open.Back straight, Breathing steady in a way that meant he’d forced it to be.“Ronan,” I murmured.He didn’t move right away, Didn’t turn.Then slowly, he looked over his shoulder.“You’re awake.”Not a question, Not relief. Just awareness layered with exhaustion he was refusing to admit.“How long have you been standing there?” I asked quietly.He shrugged one shoulder. “A while.”“That’s not an answer.”“It’s the only answer I’m giving.”I pushed myself up on my elbows, wincing as the soreness returned. Not pain, just the lingering aftershock of everything my body had been fighting all night.“Come sit down,” I said.“No.”My chest tight

Elias’s POVRonan didn’t let go of my hand for a long time. Not until my breathing steadied.Not until the tremors in my fingers faded.Not until he was sure I wasn’t about to fall apart again.Even then… he didn’t step far. Just enough to breathe, not enough to leave.He stood near the window, back turned to me, shoulders heavy with the weight of every secret he’d just revealed. I could see the tension in his spine, in the slow, deliberate rise and fall of his chest.He wasn’t calm.He was holding himself together.“Ronan,” I whispered.“I know.” His voice was low. “You have questions.”“Not questions. Just… thoughts.”“That’s worse,” he muttered.I almost smiled. Silence stretched; thin, fragile, humming with everything neither of us could say. Finally, he exhaled and turned to face me.“Elias,” he said quietly, “you don’t have to decide what to feel about any of this right now.”I swallowed. “I don’t know what I feel.”“I know.”I shifted on the bed, fingers curling into the blanke

Ronan’s POVElias fell asleep slowly.Not peacefully nor completely. His breathing dipped and stuttered, sometimes too fast, sometimes too shallow, like his body was still listening for danger even when his eyes were closed.Like he didn’t trust the world enough to rest. But he trusted me. That part hit harder than anything else tonight.I sat in the chair beside his bed, elbows on my knees, forcing myself not to reach for him every time he twitched or gasped or clenched his fists. He wasn’t dreaming, he was remembering. The gaps in his childhood, the erased pieces… they were resurfacing.Vale did that, Pain and Fear did that.And I hated all of it. The shield lights flickered again.Not enough to compromise the barrier.Just enough to remind me Vale was still out there. Waiting, Testing and Hungry.I leaned back in the chair and stared at the door. He wouldn’t try again tonight. Not after I reinforced the shields. Not when he knew I was here.Even he wouldn’t be reckless enough to pro

Elias’s POVThe room felt too quiet after Ronan left. Quiet in a way that made my skin crawl. My heartbeat sounded loud in my ears. I sat there on the edge of the bed, staring at the door he had just walked through.He told me not to open it for anyone. Just him. My chest tightened.I wrapped my arms around myself and forced my breathing to slow, but the fear from last night still clung to me. Vale. The thought of him anywhere near the academy made my stomach twist.I stood and paced the room. Three steps toward the window. Three steps back. It did nothing to calm me. My legs felt restless. My hands shaky.What if Ronan ran into him out there? What if Vale wanted something more than just a warning this time? What if he found out the truth I had buried my whole life?My heart kicked hard. I walked to the sink and splashed cold water on my face, hoping it would clear the buzzing in my head. It did not.Minutes passed. Or maybe hours. I lost track. Every sound from outside made me jump.
