It kept despair from swallowing her whole in this alien world.
Finished
Lyra would never forget the very first time she faced the volatile Kyren and his red pit viper. It was Draven who spoke up for her.
When Felix rambled threats to frighten her, all the Sentinels on the ground floor warned her to stay cautious.
After she was released from medical care following her injury, they threw together the first welcome celebration she had ever known.
When she wrongly suspected Hadrien of scheming against her, they gently urged her to see the truth clearly.
When they watched her refuse to leave alongside Zev and his team, every single one of them stood firmly at her side, striving to shield her fragile, overwhelmed heart.
To them, these moments felt trivial, hardly worth mentioning. To Lyra, they were an unshakable source of safety.
She had always believed good deeds bring good returns.
She had lived by that belief.
And she had witnessed proof of it.
Which meant she would keep doing the same, no matter where she went.
Above everything else, all she craved was a quiet, peaceful life.
The Sentinels fell silent, listening to her humble words.
Before meeting Lyra, none of them would have imagined someone so genuine and unjaded.
Truly believing in repaying malice with kindness sounded absurd.
Yet they watched it unfold right in front of their eyes.
The withdrawn Harlan was slowly learning to open up.
The hot–tempered Rook had begun reining in his aggression.
The reckless Felix grew consumed by fear of losing her.
Even Kyren and Draven, who constantly clashed, found themselves united against outside trouble for her sake.
All of this had been brought about by those foolish things Lyra used to do, the things they once thought were so stupid.

It was the unique pull of her character.
“Cut it out and get the fuck out of my way p>
“Who do you think you are
“You want to fucking die, don’t you? I’ll grant your wish p>
“Who’s dying isn’t decided yet p>
The crash and shouting made Lyra glance helplessly toward Hadrien.
Someone needed to separate those two hotheads.
They started fighting the second they opened their eyes.
Hadrien summoned his nightmare beast and signaled the guards to intervene.
Meanwhile, Lyra wheeled the robot into Rhys‘ cell.
As she moved it inside, he lowered his voice to question her.
“What’s this all about p>
Being locked up was boring, but he had plenty of ways to pass the time.
This robot was a gift he’d given her. It made no sense to take it back.
Still, she kept sending subtle hints for him to keep it.
Rhys could not wrap his head around her reasoning.
Lyra could not pause to type right now, so she smiled mysteriously at him.
Rhys lifted an eyebrow, curious what scheme she was plotting now.
“Let go of me!
“Lyra! You liar! What about the promise you made me?
“ Answer me p>
Lyra snapped her head around at that furious roar.
Oh no.
She had completely forgotten about that.
Hadrien strode forward with a stern expression, dragging Rook away.
“You made that promise before the test results came in.
“You failed to control your contamination levels. How could you ever hope to become her personal

guard?
“Dammit! You never keep your word!
“I won’t trust you ever again, Lyra! ”
Restraining straps held Rook captive as several men carried him toward the neighboring cell.
He thrashed violently, fighting every bit like a stubborn boar resisting capture.
Lyra finally understood why he had been in such a foul mood earlier.
She hurried after them.
Once they locked him back inside his cell, she patiently explained everything.
Finished
His contamination readings had not hit the threshold required for release, and there was nothing she could do right now.
If she ever found a chance to return, she would do everything possible to help all of them get out.
At first, Rook faced away from her, grumbling angrily inside the cell.
But as Lyra reached out to stroke his hyena, his mutters slowly died down.
“Hmph p>
Lyra chuckled softly at that huff.
She cupped the hyena’s round ears and squeezed and rubbed them playfully.
The hyena stretched its jaws wide, panting heavily. Lyra could not tell if it was simply cooling itself off, enjoying the touch, or a mix of both.
Some spirit animals were truly amusing. When you petted them, they tilted their heads and rubbed their muzzles against your hands. Their cool, damp noses brushed aver skin, and sometimes they darted out their tongues to lick.
Lyra lifted her wrist to avoid being licked, still kneading the creature’s head and ears with her fingers.
The hyena was far more agreeable than its owner.
While she continued petting the spirit animal, she typed a message.
“Good boy. I’ll come see you again if I get the chance. Don’t stay mad, okay p>
The hyena narrowed its eyes, savoring her touch.
Rook mumbled something indistinct from within the cell.
Lyra typed once more.
“ Sure thing, sure thing! ”

Heating her talk to herself like that, Rook twisted around and shot her a sharp glare.
With his short hair and menacing scowl, his sharp, defined features looked fiercely intimidating.
Yet his cheeks flushed, fine beads of sweat glistening across his skin. It softened his wild, unruly aura, leaving him looking stubborn and reluctant yet secretly longing for attention.
Lyra grinned at him.
“I’m talking to the hyena, tough guy p>
Rook’s lips moved. He had been ready to snap another retort.
But hearing that nickname, his jaw tightened, and he swallowed his words back down.
“You’re ridiculous. ”
He grumbled irritably and turned his back on her once more.
Lyra lowered her gaze. The hyena rested its paws on the window ledge, deep brown eyes staring quietly up
at her.
She broke into a bright smile, rubbing one of its ears while typing on her wrist device with her other hand.
“I have to leave now. There’s someone important I still need to meet.
“Will you wait patiently here for me p>
“Sure thing, sure thing p>
Her quiet self–response drew another quiet scoff from inside the cell.
Lyra glanced toward him one last time, gave the hyena’s head a final pat, and turned to walk away.
The hyena stayed sprawled by the window, its gaze silently tracking her departing figure.
