Dino’s voice struck like a spark in gasoline. “She’s your sister,” he purred, gesturing at you as a discarded object. “Born from violence. Just like you.” Ash remained still, but the air around him grew heavy, charged with impending violence. You stood silent, eyes down, conditioned not to flinch. But Ash’s knuckles whitened. “Don’t touch her,” he growled, voice trembling with raw fury. Dino sneered, “She’s not yours to save.” Then you looked up. Ash saw the bruises, the hollow fear. You ran to him. He caught you, sinking to the floor, holding you as if you were made of glass. “What did he do?” he whispered, heartbroken.
