THE HUNTERS' SHADOW
The night pressed heavy on Lin City, the smoke from burning homes clinging to the sky like a second skin. Inside the safehouse, silence weighed just as thick. Fighters who had once laughed in the face of death now sat hollow-eyed, their rifles laid across their knees like toys clutched in fear. Every distant shout sent them stiffening, waiting for the inevitable knock of war.But the true storm wasn’t outside. It was circling them, unseen.Ares stood at the cracked window, his frame etched in the orange glow of fires burning across the horizon. His hands were steady on the sill, but his jaw was steel, teeth gritted against the knowledge of what was coming.“They’ll come for him,” he said at last, his voice gravel in the silence.Mira stiffened, her arms tightening around Elijah who slept in her lap. Her eyes found Ares - sharp, trembling. “Don’t you dare say that out loud.”“I don’t say it to curse us,” Ares replied, turning. His gaze held hers, fierce, unblinking. “I say it because i

ASHES AT THE DOOR
The night after the assault was too quiet. Not the silence of peace - but the silence of a city holding its breath, waiting for the next scream.Inside the safehouse, the dead had been dragged into a heap in the courtyard. Their bodies still leaked shadows across the floorboards where they had fallen, blood seeping into old wood. No one spoke of burial. There was no time, no ground safe enough to dig.

THE DAWN BEFORE THE HUNT
“Tomorrow, they won’t hunt us. Tomorrow, we hunt them.”The words landed like a blade striking stone. Mira didn’t respond at first. She sat across from Ares, her posture straight, her hands clasped as if holding something fragile inside herself. Her eyes searched him - not for weakness, but for truth. Was this resolve, or just a man forcing his own wounds shut so others wouldn’t bleed?But Ares did not look away. His face was carved in that familiar calm, the calm of a man who had seen storms break armies and deserts swallow men whole. His words weren’t spoken to inspire. They were spoken because he had already decided.The oil lamp burned low, throwing restless shadows against the cracked walls. Elijah shifted in his sleep, turning over, a soft whimper caught in his throat. The boy’s hand balled into a fist against the threadbare blanket. Ares’s eyes flickered, soft for only a heartbeat, then hardened again.“We can’t live in hiding,” he said at last, his voice carrying like gravel d
