Chapter 118
Brother vs Brother
Aurora’s POV
Kira’s hand is still holding mine.
It’s the only reason I’m not completely gone.
It feels like learning how to walk again, like my knees have forgotten how to hold me up.
“You don’t have to go back in,” she says gently.
But something in me is screaming to go back in.Why?“Okay,” she says, looping her arm around my
mine. “Let’s go find the others.
“We round the corner into the main hall leading to the cafeteria, and it hits me like a wall.
A crowd.
Dozens of students packed together, phones raised, faces lit with horror and glee and fear all at
once.
“Kira-“She nods and, as if sensing I wanted to see what the crowd was around, and was already pushing forward.
Then I hear it.Screaming.Not scared screaming–furious. Violent.
And the unmistakable, sickening sound of a body hitting the floor.Kira stops, her face pale. “What the hell–?“Students are everywhere. Phones out. Shouting. Cheering, Crying, even.
And in the center of it all…Oh God.Luka.
Beating the hell out of-Nico.My mouth drops in horror as I look at the scene before me.
Blood stains Nico’s mouth, his nose, his shirt. His lip is split open, one of his eyes is already swelling.He lunges at h, punching Luka square in the jaw.
“FUCK YOU, YOU PSYCHO-“Luka barely flinches as he wipes the blood off his lip with the back of his hand and lunges again, fists flying.
“I’M THE PSYCHO? YOU MADE OUT WITH SAVINA Luka screams, voice raw with fury. “THE BITCH WHO FUCKING HURT OUR SISTER?“Nico catches his fist and shoves him back, yelling just as loud. “SO WHAT IF I DID?”
“SHE HURT HER!” Luka’s voice cracks as he throws another punch that connects with Nico’s cheek, sending him sprawling to the floor.
“YOU LET HER PRACTICALLY KILL AURORA AND NOW YOU FUCKING KISS THAT BITCH?!“Savina

is nearby, sobbing. A dark bruise blooms on the side of her face as she clutches one of her friends like she’s the victim in this, sobbing, mascara streaking down her face. But for once, no one is looking at her. Everyone is watching the bloodbath,
But… what happened to her cheek?The crowd’s roaring gets louder.
“Holy shit, Luka’s going to kill him-”
“Why are they fighting?!”
“Someone call a teacher!”
“NO, KEEP RECORDING-”
“Bro–he’s gonna fucking die-”
“This shit is going viral-“The boys are grappling again, Nico grabbing Luka by the collar and
headbutting him—and Luka reels, stumbling back as blood drips from his nose.
“You don’t know SHIT,” Nico snarls, stumbling forward. “She’s a fucking charity case, Luka! What the fuck happened to you?!“Luka growls like an animal and charges again, slamming Nico into the
vending machine so hard it shatters, as snacks and glass cascade around them.Nico tackles him in
return, and now he’s the one on top. He punches Luka’s face screaming with each strike. “SHE!
DOESN’T! BELONG! WITH! US!“Luka twists, flipping Nico, yells back, “SHE’S OUR FUCKING
SISTER!“He aims a punch as Nico kicks him off.
They both get up, panting like wild animals, fists trembling, clothes stained with blood.
“She’s manipulating you,” Nico spits. “She’s so good at looking broken that people feel bad—”
“Shut your fucking mouth!” Luka screams, his voice shaking with something deeper than rage — something like heartbreak.
“WHY?” Nico yells back. “Because I’m right?! Because she’s got you wrapped around her fucking finger? You’re so desperate to feel like a goddamn savior-“And then Luka hits him so hard that
Nico goes flying backwards into the table, flipping over it with a crash.
Then Nico groans, slowly trying to get up, his entire face red and smeared with blood.
But he smirks through it.
And I lose my breath.
The panic claws up my spine like a thousand sharp pails.
The world spins. It spins so fast I can’t hold on.
I can’t breathe.My vision tilts–and suddenly I’m not in the cafeteria anymore.
