The Commander
Skylenna
“CAT GOT YOUR TONGUE, BROTHER?”
Collectively, we all look to Dessin with our jaws dragging across the
brimstone floor. They look alike; that much is obvious. But it’s so clear that
their surroundings were different. Their upbringings turned them into
separate creatures.
Kaspias Valdawell doesn’t have that warmth in his dark brown eyes.
There isn’t that beating heart buried within his cold gaze. He’s almost…
hard to look at. In the dim light of the yellow and red bulbs, I make out the
uneven layer of skin on his face and neck. Scars that cover more scars. A
beard and black ink lining under his eyes. He’s big, strong, rigid with
bulging muscles like Dessin, but there’s something sick about how he looks
at his twin brother.
A twisted eagerness to cause him pain.
“We were told you were stillborn.” Dessin doesn’t blink.
Kaspias smiles for several creepy seconds. “So, I’ve heard. It’s a little
sad how easy it is for Vexamen spies to invade your delicate city, isn’t it? I
was taken the moment I was pulled from our mother and brought to my new
home.”
“Did they—experiment on you?” Dessin asks.
“I am not like you and your”—he taps two fingers to his temple
—“horde of personalities. If they raise you without compassion, it makes
the subject harder to break.”
“There are two of you?!” Niles blurts out in disgust, eyes darting back
and forth between each twin.
“Niles,” Ruth warns under her breath.
I can’t even look away to shoot Niles a scolding glare. Kaspias was
taken as a baby. A baby. An infant directly from birth. Sophia didn’t even
have a chance to hold him for the first time.
Dessin releases a quick breath. “You’re one of them. A soldier in the
Vexamen Breed.”
I want to reach my hand between the bars and touch him. Let him know
I’m here for him. He doesn’t have to process this news alone.
“I am a commander in the Vexamen Breed.” Kaspias runs a curious
hand through his short beard. “And you’re an experiment that went wrong.
A product of insanity. A test subject that was released into the public.”
Has he kept an eye on Dessin all these years? The thought triggers a
tickle of a memory beneath the surface.
I try not to get lost in it as I let it
suck me in. Darkness swallows me quicker than expected, and I’m tossed
into the forest. The scent of rain sinking into the dirt and pine trees swirling
around me. Dessin is on the motorcycle, and Past Skylenna clutches his
waist. We’re outrunning—someone. Another motorcycle. A figure that
wouldn’t show their face.
Dessin fishtails the bike and throws his legs out to kick the stalker off
their seat. They flee the scene before the person chasing them removes their
helmet.
I see the beard first, and dread sinks into my gut. Kaspias has been
following us. Watching us.
I’m back in my cage, knees painfully pressed against the jagged
brimstone, blinking away the memory that threw off my equilibrium. How
long has this been going on? Did Dessin really not have any idea that this
was a possibility?
