     Achys just throw our body into mud. She was doing a cough-cry thing. I was trying to get her to come back because the centaurs will kill us if they see her. But she didn't listen and centaurs started surrounding us.

     Achys just curled up into a ball and continued crying. We were both waiting for the pain to start, but it never did. Achys began to calm down and was zoning into their conversation to see what's happening.

     Listening, we heard that they are arguing on whether they should kill us or not. But then Magorian spoke up and said, "She is a student at Hogwarts and didn't have a choice in the killing. Achys was protecting her mate before she was rejected by him. And instead of lashing out and forcing him to accept him, she left. So let her go. She had done nothing wrong."

     The other centaurs backed away and Achys slowly stood up. They left once she was standing and Achys gave me back control. I slowly walked back while hiding everything. I also cast an illusion so you couldn't see the weapons in case I passed a professor or student.

     I made it to my dorm without any problems and undressed. I stopped when I got to my undergarments and looked in the mirror. I lightly traced the scars that littered my body before placing a towel over the mirrors in the bathroom. I got into the shower and let my tears slowly drop.

     I had tried hard to be strong for both of us, but I could feel Achys start hiding away and knew I was losing the only person who cared about me. I was also crying because the fear on their faces was something I was trying to avoid.

     I tried hard to not let people be afraid of me, but I knew they were now scared that they might get killed by me.

     Finishing my shower, I got ready for bed but just sat and stared out the window while sitting at my desk. I watched the sunrise for a new day, but I didn't want to experience it. I knew I should try to cheer Achys up in hopes that she will talk to me, so I changed out of my night clothes into something comfortable. 

     I had sweatpants with a crop top on. You couldn't tell it was a crop top till I lifted my arms, and even then, it didn't go that high. I grabbed my phone and saw many messages from my family, but I ignored them.

     Outside, I hoped the others got back from the warehouse before sitting under the tree we love. I started playing a playlist of all the songs Achys loves and drew.

     This continued for many hours, but I didn't even feel Achys' presence. I figured she wanted some alone time, but kept playing the songs till curfew was approaching and I started walking back inside.

     The Slytherin gang did make it back, but they were avoiding me like I thought they would.

     Getting back to the common room, I saw they were setting up for a party and quickly made my way out of the room and into my dorm. I hope it won't be too loud, but that's like asking my parents to love me.


     I was right, the music feels like it's vibrating my room. And I'm not even close to the party. I decided to head to the party so I can put a silence spell on it and keep the music trapped in there.

     Walking into the party, I heard 'I Wanna Be Your Slave' by Maneskin playing. It was near the part that goes like, 'I'm the devil who's searching for redemption.' I knew I wasn't going to get out of here fast enough, and I could feel Achys start to come more upfront.

     I tried to push her back by saying, Stop. It doesn't matter.

     "I want to hear it!"

     NO!

     She backed down and hid again. I sighed, finished what I was doing, and about to leave when Blaise came in front of me.

     I looked at him and he asked, "What are you doing?"

     I shook my head no to show I was doing nothing as I didn't have my cards or pencil.

     He grabbed my arms before letting go quickly and said, "I know you're doing something here. Tom read that demons who got rejected by their mates force them to accept them. Are you here to do that after you try to redeem yourself?"

     I felt tears from Achys in my eyes and pushed past him. I forced my way through the crowd and into my room. I stayed there for a while, just crying till I couldn't anymore.
