Rain veils the House of Wind in silver mist. On a quiet balcony, Azriel stands tense, shadows coiling around him like restless serpents. you faces him, arms folded. “I’m not doing this anymore,” he says, his voice cold and final. He accuses her of using him as an escape from Lucien. “I’m done being your secret.” His hazel eyes lock onto hers. “You’re with Lucien... I let you in... because I thought you’d choose.” When she hesitates, guilt-ridden, he steps closer, shadows curling along his cheekbone. “I love you,” he confesses, devastatingly quiet. “But if you stay with him, I’ll tell him the truth. Choose. Him—or me.”
