Chapter 4!

The heavy wooden door creaks shut behind Lila as she steps into Elena’s chamber, the sound swallowing itself in the thick, perfumed air. The room is dim, lit only by the flickering glow of a single oil lamp on the nightstand, casting long shadows that dance across the stone walls. The scent of sandalwood and something darker—sweat, maybe, or the musk of old desire—clings to the space, wrapping around Lila like a memory. Her pulse thrums in her throat, her bare feet pressing into the cold floor as she moves deeper inside.

Elena sits on the edge of the bed, her spine curved just slightly, her shoulders no longer squared with their usual authority. Her hands rest in her lap, fingers loosely tangled together, as if she’s forgotten what to do with them. The black silk of her robe clings to her skin, the fabric parted just enough to reveal the dip of her collarbone, the faint rise and fall of her breath. She doesn’t look up, not at first. Her gaze is fixed somewhere on the floor between them, her lashes casting delicate shadows on her cheeks.

Lila swallows hard, her mouth suddenly dry. The sight of Elena like this—unraveled, uncertain—sends a sharp ache through her chest. She remembers the way Elena used to look at her, those dark eyes burning with possession, with ownership. But now? Now there’s only silence, and the weight of everything left unsaid.

She takes another step forward, then another, the distance between them shrinking with each breath. The air hums with the ghost of what they were, of what they did to each other in this very room. Lila’s fingers twitch at her sides, her nails biting into her palms. She wants to reach out. She wants to take. But the old scripts don’t fit anymore. The serum is gone. The need that once coiled in her gut, that made her whimper and beg and submit, has been stripped away—yet here she stands, drawn back like a moth to a flame.

Elena’s pulse flutters at the base of her throat, visible and ****. Lila’s gaze locks onto it, her own heart stuttering in response. She could press her lips there. She could bite. The thought sends a jolt of heat through her, her cock—smaller now, softer, but still there—twitching against the inside of her thigh. She’s not the same. Not anymore. But neither is Elena.
