Xavier screamed the deep kind, the ones that came from his soul and each one fed Kilian like it gave him life.
For Kilian, it was more than just the sight or the sound. He could hear everything inside the scream, every emotion, every memory, every piece of regret. It was like music to him, a melody and each note pulled him deeper into it.
He could hear all the regret, the anger, the suffering, the despair, the fear. Every scream had meaning, he could feel it deep inside him, like every note of pain hit a part of his soul.
Xavier's screams weren't just noise; they were confession, guilt, and pain mixed into one.
And the worst of it Xavier understood what he had done. He knew his life ended the moment he betrayed them, maybe even the moment he joined the family. Because once you join, there's no turning back.
