Her senses seemed sharper lately—she could hear the distant call of a bird, the rustling of leaves miles away. The moonlight felt like a balm on her skin, soothing and invigorating her all at once.

She glanced at her reflection in the water, her silver hair gleaming like molten light. Who am I?

“What aren’t you telling us?” she asked abruptly.

Matthew blinked, taken aback. “What are you talking about?”

“Dain and I… we’re not normal,” she said, her voice trembling with both anger and fear. “You’ve seen it. The way we heal, the way he fought that bear—it’s not human. And you’re telling me you don’t know anything about where we came from?”
