I will save your father.
Lila stood at the edge of the hall, her hands clenched at her sides, watching as her husband left with the problematic customer. The girl had her arms looped around Ethan’s like a lover, clinging to him with a giddy, almost childlike excitement. It made something sharp and cold unfurl in Lila’s chest—a strange, unknown emotion she could neither name nor fight.She followed them with her eyes, her heartbeat drumming louder than the surrounding whispers. The hallway buzzed with staff and clients, rumors swirling like gnats, but Lila could barely hear them. There was something about Ethan—something new, something otherworldly—that held her fast. He looked ethereal, charged, as though a current of power had been switched on inside him. She had never seen anyone cling to him like that before. She had never seen him like that before.Her mother’s sudden voice snapped her back.“What’s going on?” Lyndia demanded, appearing at her side, breathing hard like a woman who had run a mile. “It’s be
Can you save my father?
Mia held out the mirror with trembling fingers, angling it toward her reflection. Her breath caught. A startled gasp escaped her lips as she brushed her fingertips lightly over her cheek, tracing skin that only minutes ago had been marred.“It’s… it’s all gone,” she whispered, her voice caught between awe and disbelief. Her wide eyes flicked to Ethan, searching for an explanation that he himself didn’t have.Ethan’s throat tightened, his body stiff as if bound by invisible cords. His mind spun like a wheel in a storm. He couldn’t move, couldn’t think, couldn’t make sense of what had just happened. His chest rose and fell with shallow breaths.“How…” Mia’s voice quivered. “How did you do it?”Ethan blinked, his lips parting before words stumbled out, raw and uncertain. “I… I don’t know.” His soul felt detached, hovering like a shadow above him, watching with just as much confusion as Mia. “I don’t know how I did it. I don’t even know what I was doing here. You—” he drew in a ragged bre
I can do it.
“You can’t just make decisions that have nothing to do with you.”Kelvin snapped the words like a whip. His face was red, fingers drumming the edge of the counter. “Who gave Ethan the authority to come in here and decide anything? Does he even know how to treat acne? Since when did Ethan become an expert in curing the simplest ailments?”Mia glanced between Kelvin and Ethan, uncertainty carved across her features. “Was that… Ethan’s right to decide?” she asked, voice small. “Doesn’t Ethan work at the hospital?”Lila stepped Forward. “Ethan is my husband,” she said, her voice was steady and threaded with apology. “I’m sorry if Ethan gave you false hope. He has no medical experience. He’s just trying to help.”That admission was a fuse.“Since when can he talk?” Elizabeth snapped. “Has he been pretending all this time? What else has Ethan lied about?”Lyndia’s eyes narrowed into hard slits. “If he’s been lying about speaking,” she cut in, lethal and quick, “what else is he hiding?”Eliz
Let me heal you
Ethan’s eyes locked on Kelvin Stones, and for a moment the world blurred around him.It was no secret the man carried a torch for Lila—he bragged about it openly, boasting to anyone foolish enough to listen. Ethan had crossed paths with him twice before, back when his own voice was shackled in silence, and both times he had wished he could cut Kelvin’s tongue from his mouth.And yet, as much as Ethan had despised Lila over the years, she was the only constant in his life. The only person he knew. That was why jealousy had once burned through him whenever Kelvin’s name was spoken.But no one adored Kelvin Stones more than Lyndia. She worshipped him like a golden calf, always scheming, always whispering poison into her daughter’s ears. Not once, not twice, but countless times she had urged Lila to divorce the “mute burden” and run to Kelvin.And still, Lila hadn’t. Ethan had been shocked back then, and even more so each time she stood her ground.“I don’t like Kelvin,” Lila would say, h
The man no one want
Ethan woke slowly. He had just dozed off for a few minutes, but somehow it felt like forever.When he raised his head, something was different. His body no longer felt like a prison—it felt like a weapon, honed and alive. Thoughts came faster than he could grasp, whole streams of knowledge pouring into him before he even summoned them. His body moved without hesitation, a natural rhythm guiding him.He rose from the bathtub, water cascading off his skin and pooling across the bathroom tiles. The moment his bare feet touched the ground, it was as though a floodgate had opened. Medicine. Mathematics. Philosophy. Human secrets buried so deep no man should know them. His mind was no longer limited—it was open to all that there is and all that will be.And his body—light, agile, unnaturally powerful. He could see everything sharper, clearer. Almost invisible strands of cotton floating in the air, dust swirling in patterns like sacred symbols. He felt the mysterious forces of the universe c
Problem in the family
Lila immediately slammed the door shut behind her.Her hands were trembling as though she had just brushed against fire. She pressed them to her chest, trying to calm the wild thundering of her heart, but the sight before her wouldn’t leave her mind. Ethan—her husband—was shivering uncontrollably on the floor. His lips had gone pale, his body twisting as though every bone wanted to break free from his skin.“Ethan…” her voice cracked, breath shallow. “What’s happening to you? Why are you contorting like that? Are you—possessed?”He buried his head into his arms, raising both hands to clamp down the sides of his face as if to shut her voice out… or the countless others only he could hear. His whole body quivered like a string pulled too tight.The date. It wouldn’t leave him. May 28th. The cursed day. The swirling tide of knowledge that didn’t belong to him pushed against his skull like waves beating against a fragile glass wall. Books he had never touched, languages he had never learn
