Miles: It’s been five months since Marsai died. Honestly, I still feel numb. No matter what they accused her of, or what they think she did—there’s this hollow ache in my chest that won’t go away. I miss her. More than I’d ever admit out loud. We don’t have a Luna now. Just silence where her voice used to be. I actually tried looking for her, quietly, behind everyone’s back. But every lead hit a dead end. Still, something deep inside me kept whispering she wasn’t gone. But as the days dragged on, even that voice started to fade. Navian? Oh, He misses her too. Maybe even more than I do. But Ethan? He’s a whole different story. He slipped right back into his usual shady self, like nothing ever happened. Sometimes I wonder if he ever loved Marsai at all. He keeps saying she “murdered”
