Then, with suspicious speed, he gathered the others and left.

These days, I never went anywhere without two guards at my side. except when Aubrey was present. Then, I needed no one else.

The virology experts praised her endlessly, calling her the one leading the charge to break the Kajit virus inside me.

There was still a long road ahead before it could be fully eradicated… but as long as she was here, there was hope.

Once the room was empty, a strange tension tightened in my chest. Aubrey was lounging against the sofa, the torn hem of her starry gown spilling across the floor like the Milky Way – yet she shone far brighter than the dress itself. Moonlight filtered through the curtains, painting her bare shoulder and neck in a soft, pearlescent glow.

She looked like a wounded mermaid, every curve a challenge to the gods themselves.

I admitted to myself – I was bewitched.

“It’s fine,” he said, continuing with the ointment. “With you all here – to bear.”
