Novel & Cerita Lost Silver

In other words, she wouldn't be able to get back at Adele any time soon. … Inside Detroit's room, Adele flopped onto the couch, breathing through her mouth. “You're something, little Silver. A West, through and through.” Silver’s lips curled into a subtle smile. But she didn't dwell on it. Instead, she grabbed one of the shopping bags and pulled out a delicate box wrapped in pale gold paper. “I bought this for you,” she said casually, like she was speaking to a friend. Adele blinked at her, startled. “For me?”

Silver didn’t need to ask what it was—she had always felt it. She remembered the night she was born, the sky illuminated by a moon that had turned completely silver, casting the forest in an ethereal glow. Her parents, exhausted and elated, had held her close, their faces pale with awe. Even in her infancy, Silver had felt that the moon’s glow had left something inside her—something that pulsed quietly, waiting for the right moment to awaken.

"Come on," Silver said, his voice softening as he turned back to her. "I want to show you something." "We're naked in your bed. What more could you possibly want to show me?" “Let me finish the grand tour. Then we can order food, open a bottle, and recreate the first time we met. But today I’ve got something special.” “What’s that?” Silver grinned and reached into his nightstand, pulling out a small transparent bag filled with icy white powder and a bottle of expensive whiskey. He held them up like prizes.

He sighs, “Okay, we’ll start with the least pure, which I’m sure you’ll be absolutely fine with, and work our way up to the bar of pure silver we found on some human on our lands. We have no idea what he planned to do with it; it’s literally an ingot of the stuff.” He points to a solid bar of silver with the sterling mark on it, she hums, “But it’s definitely the ‘good’ stuff.” She nods, she wanted to start at the hard end, but understands his caution.

Silver rolled her eyes. “Take the win, Maya." Silver huffed, returning to her seat. Her mind is already spinning through possible worst-case scenarios. “I love you, Silver." Burke's confession echoed in her head, and she grimaced. This wasn't good. She glanced at Maya, who was seated across her with a broad grin on her face despite her attempt to mask it. Silver scoffed, and Maya chuckled. “Come on, stop acting like living with me is the worst thing that could happen to you.”

Frowning, I glanced in the direction he was growling. There was a box. And a rose lying right next to it… What the---?! I grabbed the rose, but instantly let it go, feeling my skin sizzle. My heart dropped as I realized--- Silver! She had breathed in silver! Silver wasn't deadly for us. However, it did leave serious damage and scarring if it was ever used as a weapon. If it came into contact with our skin, it cut us off from our wolves and hindered the natural healing process, leaving us vulnerable for a while. The feeling was like fire, burning you like a bad allergic reaction...

Silver wants to be a robotics engineering major, not at Luiton, but it still caught her attention. We end up ordering pizza and breaking out the snacks I hid from Mum. While we wait, Silver puts on a playlist, and we start throwing outfit ideas around. I model a few options from my closet—nothing too serious, just casual stuff I’d actually wear and she gives brutally honest feedback.

And I was done living like a secret. Done being protected into silence. If the world wanted to hunt the silver fox, it was going to learn something my mother’s bloodline had always known: Silver doesn’t break easily. And foxes? Foxes don’t stay caged.
