Kireihotaru
She was raised to despise everything he stood for.
He fought for everything she refused to understand.
A Fil-Am activist with fire in his veins, and a governor's daughter wrapped in privilege and prejudice-worlds apart, bound only by a persistence she mistook for arrogance. He kept showing up; she kept pushing him away. To her, he was noise, inconvenience, something to argue with-not someone to listen to.
Until he stopped showing up.
When silence replaces the man she once ignored, the truths he tried to tell begin to echo louder than ever. And in the spaces he left behind, she is forced to confront the weight of words she never said, and a love she never learned to give.
Now, all that remains is a question she can no longer ask him-and a kind of regret that came long before she ever knew how to love him right.
