Silence Claimed

I never needed him to say he loved me.
I felt it in the silence.

Rhys doesn't raise his voice.
He doesn't chase.
He doesn't threaten.

He watches.
He waits.
And when he decides something matters, he holds it - quietly, completely.

I'm not broken. I don't need fixing.
But there's a part of me - Lyx - that knows when love starts to feel like control... and when control feels like safety. She is my biggest fan she's me so I don't need to explain. She's the bold in me that won't be taken advantage of.

This isn't a story about obsession.
It's about restraint.
About power that never bruises.
About two people who speak very little - and understand obviously that they don't or do belong together.

Some love is loud.
Ours lives in the silence.
