Chapter 68

• KORVUS'S POV
• The moment I stepped into my chamber, I saw Kyle standing by the window, his silver hair illuminated by the moonlight. His arms were crossed, his face tight with frustration. He was waiting.
• I ignored him and made my way to the bed, sinking onto the mattress without a word. The weight of the day pressed on me, but I refused to show it. Picking up a cigarette, I twirled it between my fingers, focusing on the small act rather than the war brewing outside.
