Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Coven

Kieran’s POV ~

When Selene left the room to take the call, the silence pressed on me. It was sudden and heavy. A hollow ache spread inside, like she was walking away forever. Sadness gripped me without warning, and I hated how quickly it made me feel sad.

She asked softly, almost too casually, about the party at Sara’s house. Her parents had invited me, but did I want to go or not?

The thought unsettled me. It burned in my chest.

She hesitated then, quickly adding that if I was busy, I didn’t have to go. Her tone carried nerves, as though she was afraid of my answer.

Before she could even finish, I heard my own voice cutting through. "No. I will go."

The words came sharp, without pause, and the look on her face showed surprise. But I could not take them back. I did not want to.
