- Nikolai Volkov:
After our emotional reunion, the one I never thought would happen, Damon and I ended up sitting alone in Alexei's room.
We haven't said a word to each other since. The silence between us feels… heavy, but it's also comforting in some way.
We're just sitting there, side by side on the couch, me in my favorite spot. It's this perfect view—the vast green forest, the ocean in the distance, and the dragon shifter towers all around us.
It's quiet, peaceful, and… strangely unsettling.
I can't stop looking out the window, trying to focus on the peaceful scenery.
But all I can think about is him—Damon, sitting next to me.
I still love him. I can feel it deep inside, a constant ache in my chest. I missed him so much.
The emptiness I felt without him… still haunts me, even now.
But at the same time, the pain of everything that happened, of what he did… It won't go away. I don't know if it ever will.
