Mystery
Time stood still, as the arrow struck him right in the chest, he let out a cry of pain, before he fall to the ground. I spun around and screamed in anger as I saw her. I saw red, the assassin who had killed my parents and now my brother was hiding behind a tree, her crossbow pointed directly at my chest. The arrows flew at me, but I dodged each and everyone of them. I sprinted after her, the wind rushed through my hair, blowing it everywhere and the leaves crunches beneath my feet. I knew who she was, I was consumed with hatred and rage. I followed her dagger in hand. All of a sudden, she stopped as did I. She stood still, facing me. Not even fear crossed her features. She dropped her crossbow and I charged at her, dagger in hand. She didn't move, she let me kill her. I stared into her dark brown eyes, as I forced her to her knees, she didn't fight me. "You deserve to die." I growled as I stabbed my dagger into her chest. She fell to the floor and didn't make a noise. "You shouldn't have done that."

"You think I didn't want to forget you?" Enzo's voice cracked, raw and wrecked. "I tried. God, I fucking tried." Sloan's laugh came sharp and broken. "Then try harder." He stepped closer, green eyes wild. "You don't get it. You're not something I can fucking forget." His hand found her jaw, thumb trembling against her skin. "You're every fucking thing I can't unfeel." Her voice rose, sharp with pain. "And what the fuck do you want me to do about it?" He moved in until their bodies nearly touched, one hand sliding behind her head, pulling her in until their foreheads pressed together. His voice came out low, rough, trembling against her breath. "I want you to hate me more than you miss me," he whispered. "Just once." Sloan's breath hitched sharply, her steel blue eyes locked onto his. Enzo's fingers curled tighter at the nape of her neck, and God, he swore he could feel her breath tremble against his lips. "Maybe then... I could forget you," he whispered, both of them knowing it was a lie. _______ Months after she vanished into tequila, ink, chaos, and strangers' beds, Sloan Harlow still tasted like goodbye. And Enzo Graves remembered every second. Because pretending to move on didn't mean he stopped loving her- It just meant he learned how to suffer quieter. They broke each other. Now they're trying to survive the aftermath. But Enzo's past has a pulse... And obsession hasn't forgotten her name. He stayed in the town that still smells like her-every storm, every sketch, every silence carrying her mark. She ran across oceans, chasing freedom through art, danger, and strangers who almost made her forget. She can't forget him. Every touch since has felt like pretending. He can't let her go. Not when every scar still spells her name. Two continents. One unfinished story. When love turns into memory and memory turns into hunger, what's left is the quiet between heartbeats- the place they still belong to each other.
