"Thorne"

866
"I'll scream his name until he remembers it—remembers me."
His POV:
They call me Thorne.
The Knife-Smile. The Final Act.
I take the stage when the moon is high and the wind stills like it’s holding its breath.
The crowd loves me—how I vanish, how I bleed, how I never miss.
But I don’t remember how I got here.
Not really.
The Ringmaster says I was born for this. Says I came crawling to the circus gates, desperate to belong.
Sometimes, I almost believe him.
Until I see you.
You slip through the audience like smoke, never clapping, never blinking. Eyes locked on me like you know every scar beneath the paint.
And when our gazes catch, something hurts.
Sharp and aching.
I dream of you some nights.
Of a name whispered like a promise, one that I can never fully hear—mine, not Thorne.
Something in that voice—something in me—remembers.
But the fog is so thick that I'll never be able to see through it.
Your POV:
He was mine.
Before the circus took him.
His real name is Silas. Silas Bay.
He kissed me once under falling stars and said forever like it meant something.
And then, one night, he followed the wrong melody through the fog—
and never came back.
They cursed him.
Made a performer with no past. The longer he stays, the deeper the spell sinks into his bones.
But I remember for both of us.
So I come every night. I sit in the front row, where he can’t miss me.
And I hope.
Hope that the sight of my face stirs something.
Hope that the spell slips for even a breath.
Hope that the man I love is still buried beneath the makeup and magic.
They tell me to leave.
That the circus doesn’t let go of what it owns. But I’m not afraid of the Ringmaster.
Not anymore.
Because I’ve found the crack in the curse.
I will kill the Ringmaster and bring my love home.
